Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife

Chapter 802: Chapter 802: Epilogue (Part 9)

Old Sir He wished he could pick up a pillow and throw it at him, "You just applied it; how can it have any effect in such a short time?"

Qin Yang felt aggrieved, "Didn’t I tell you I need the kind that works instantly?"

With Master’s excellent medical skills, he surely should be able to solve such a small problem.

But he dared not say the latter part, fearing he would be kicked out by his Master.

The day was still early; maybe wait a bit longer.

After waiting another quarter of an hour, it was still the same. Qin Yang really lost his patience at this point.

If he didn’t return soon, Xiaxia would start worrying.

He Jianshe came back pushing his bicycle from outside, just in time to see his old man chasing his brother-in-law out of the house with a broom.

This brother-in-law was always steady, even a leader at his workplace, how could Father hit him just like that?

This temper really seems to have become unrestrained with age.

He Jianshe quickly parked his bicycle and went up to stop them, taking the broom from his father.

Then he looked at his brother-in-law, and oh my!

"Dad, is there nothing you can’t talk it over? How did it end up with him looking like this?"

His face was all bruised.

The brother-in-law was always so filial; he didn’t believe his brother-in-law could have made a major mistake.

Upon hearing this, Old Sir He was so angry even his beard curled up, "Who hit him?"

"You did, I saw you chasing brother-in-law with my own eyes. You were really harsh this time."

Old Sir He looked around, feeling one was not enough, another one came along.

Might as well hit them both.

Qin Yang was afraid Old Sir He might get too angry, so he quickly explained to He Jianshe.

"Senior Brother, it’s a misunderstanding. This injury isn’t from Master hitting me. I came to Master for some ointment, wasn’t happy with its effect, and that’s what angered Master."

"The effect isn’t good? Was it the one in the drawer?"

Seeing Qin Yang nod, He Jianshe was puzzled, "That ointment is quite effective, it reduces swelling overnight and clears the bruising in two days. When did you apply it?"

"Half an hour ago."

He Jianshe: "..."

Truly, the hit was deserved.

After all, Father couldn’t tolerate anyone doubting his medical skills.

However, He Jianshe’s attention turned to Qin Yang’s injuries again.

"What happened? Did you get into a fight? Why did you fight? How many people were involved?"

Qin Yang: "..."

Senior Brother’s occupational habit really kicks in suddenly.

....................

No choice, Lin Chuxia ended up seeing it.

Knowing Qin Yang went to find Gu Peng, she wasn’t surprised by the injuries on him.

"You told me not to think about those things anymore, yet you were the one to stay concerned."

At this moment, she had to admit that sometimes not only women’s sixth sense, but men’s sixth sense too, was very accurate.

From the moment Gu Peng was brought to her side, Qin Yang harbored inexplicable hostility towards him, which was the first time he had any opinion about someone around her.

Lin Chuxia didn’t offer much comment on the matter; she was just glad Qin Yang wasn’t at a disadvantage.

"With you like this, I’m afraid it might affect your work tomorrow."

"I’m not worried," having vented his frustration, being talked about a bit was nothing.

Lin Chuxia thought for a while and ended up using some spiritual spring water to help clean his wounds.

....................

Lin Chuxia wasn’t at all surprised to hear about Gu Peng’s resignation.

Knowing he had already left the company, she instead felt relieved.

Of all the impacts from Gu Peng leaving, the greatest would probably be on Wang Tianyu.

Since Gu Peng joined the company, Wang Tianyu had viewed him as his rival and life goal.

After all, not only did this man do the same job as him, but he was also valued by Mr. Lin.

And his capabilities.

Wang Tianyu went from disregarding him at first, to facing him directly, and now to secretly sighing.

Especially this time when the two exchanged office locations and swapped their current work tasks.

As soon as he took on Gu Peng’s tasks, Wang Tianyu even found himself nearly unable to cope.

Whether managing business in Yan City or dealing with the herbal medicine cultivation base, the workload and difficulty were far more complex than in An City.

Yet Gu Peng managed it all neatly.

Wang Tianyu secretly vowed multiple times to study hard and work diligently, not necessarily to surpass Gu Peng but to not be outdone by him.

As he was working hard towards these goals, the target suddenly disappeared.

"Mr. Lin, could it be that Assistant Gu was dissatisfied with the work in An City? Or perhaps he didn’t want to leave Yan City? If that’s the case, I can..."

After spending some time together, Wang Tianyu knew that Gu Peng also greatly admired Mr. Lin and was willing to be his right-hand man.

He noticeably sensed Gu Peng’s reluctance to go to An City.

If Mr. Lin was considerate of his elder sister’s face and swapped their work locations because of his complaints, moving Wang Tianyu to Yan City, it would be most ungrateful to let Mr. Lin lose a great assistant because of it.

Lin Chuxia smiled, "Don’t overthink it; it’s not related to you. Just focus on your work. I’ll arrange someone for An City and the herbal medicine cultivation base has already begun deployment. It’s crucial to keep a close watch over there; if needed, visit a few times."

"Understood, Mr. Lin. Don’t worry, I’ve been keeping an eye on it."

Knowing it wasn’t because of him, Wang Tianyu was completely relieved.

Lin Chuxia swiftly assigned someone to take over Gu Peng’s work in An City.

Be it An City or Yan City, all operations proceeded smoothly, as if no one cared about the departure of a mere assistant.

Lin Chuxia hoped Gu Peng would also let go and embrace a new life.

She believed that with his skills and lifetime of experience, he could lead an even more brilliant life.

....................

As the grass grew and the orioles flew, the weather was getting warmer, and people began to shed their winter clothes.

"Mr. Lin, here’s a fax from Yun City. Our herbal medicine cultivation base’s Angelica sinensis planting area has reached 3,000 acres. Other varieties of herbal medicine have significant scales too. Vice County Magistrate Zhang and County Magistrate Zhao are eagerly anticipating our building a pharmaceutical factory in Yun City, welcoming us to visit anytime for a field inspection."

Lin Chuxia took the fax and glanced at it, satisfied, "It’s time to take a look."

That land with its mountains and waters, if it were fragrant with herbs all over, would surely be a more beautiful sight.

"Additionally, the Qingyuan County Magistrate called, also hoping we could visit and especially emphasized the results of their herbal medicine cultivation in Qingyan Town..."

While saying this, Wang Tianyu also displayed an undisguised mocking smile.

He hadn’t attended that inspection and later heard how the people in Qingyan Town treated Mr. Lin.

Seeing Yun City’s results now, they were in a rush. Why weren’t they hastening earlier?

"No need to bother with them for now. Let’s proceed according to our plan."

Even if the herbal medicine cultivation base area was to be expanded in the future, Lin Chuxia wouldn’t consider Qingyuan County during the tenure of its current leadership.

Just as they were talking, the phone rang.

Lin Chuxia answered the phone, hearing Qin Jianjun’s anxious voice from inside, "Fourth Aunt, you need to come to the clothing mall quickly, something happened..."
