Chapter 407: Chapter 407: There was originally a problem with the medicinal materials
Shen Yujun, sitting on the sofa, simply couldn’t take it anymore. Her face looked terrible as she said, “Qiao Haidong, are you even human? It’s so late and yet, you’re expecting Yinyin to go over to Lu Lingche’s place and ask him for a favor? What twisted intent are you harboring? You think I can’t comprehend it?”
“Oh dear, Mom, what kind of twisted intent am I supposed to have? You’re really framing me for no reason at all! I’m just anxious to sell my herbs, or perhaps you would like to give me some advice?”
“Where do you get the audacity to ask me to help you out?”
A furious Shen Yujun said, “And don’t you dare call me Mom, it disgusts me! Just get out of here. I’ve already told you the last time, Yinyin is cutting her ties with you. You’re not to come here again!”
Finishing her words, she picked up an electric mosquito racket and switched it on: “If you don’t leave, I’ll smack this on your face!”
Qiao Haidong was a man that took great pride in his appearance, always keeping fit and even resorting to plastic surgery to maintain his looks.
Fearing that Yujun would indeed smack the racket on his face, he hastily retreated to the door.
“Yinyin, remember to put in a good word with Lu Lingche for me, alright? I’ll head off now, but if the problem isn’t solved, I’ll be back tomorrow! If you find me irritating, then help me out quickly!”
Watching him leave, Qiao Yin silently shut the door.
The shameless are truly invincible. Qiao Haidong pays a visit with an assortment of faces, stooping or standing as required, no amount of scolding having any effect.
Qiao Yin cleaned up the dishes and left them in the kitchen to be washed, then took a shower.
After she came out of the shower, her grandmother had left another bowl of chicken soup on the living room table.
Reluctantly, Qiao Yin picked it up and slowly downed it all.
She didn’t know whether it was because her grandmother had adjusted the prescription, or because the herbs Lu Lingche had brought were unique, but she thought that it tasted much better than before.
After finishing the chicken soup, Qiao Yin returned to her bedroom, hesitating as she held her mobile phone.
Lu Lingche had driven her to tears twice today, and their relationship had sunk to an all-new low.
A part of her absolutely didn’t want to contact Lu Lingche anymore, but if she didn’t, Qiao Haidong wouldn’t be able to sell his herbs.
She couldn’t let him lose more money, otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to finance Qiao Jiasen’s studies.
Doubts plagued her until midnight. Qiao Yin lay in bed, unable to sleep due to her worries.
In the end, she sat up, not caring whether Lu Lingche was asleep or not, and dialed his number.
Of course, Lu Lingche wasn’t asleep.
His insomnia hadn’t improved, and he was still working in his study at midnight.
When his phone rang and he saw it was Qiao Yin, he paused.
He thought that Qiao Yin wouldn’t call him ever again.
The phone rang once, he didn’t pick up, wanting to see if Qiao Yin would call a second time.
However, she did more than call a second time, she called a third time.
Lu Lingche frowned slightly, with this persistency, could something have happened to Qiao Jiasen again?
Otherwise, he couldn’t think of any reason why she relentlessly called him in the middle of the night. It was unlikely that she missed him.
The way she slapped him today, she seemed as if she wanted to cut all ties with him, how could she possibly miss him.
He picked up the mobile and answered, “Qiao Yin.”
A cold voice came from the phone: “Lu Lingche, why are you still preventing Qiao Haidong from selling his herbs even after he has returned your five million?”
So, it was about this.
He replied indifferently, “I’m not blocking him anymore, I’ve already notified those involved. They can normally purchase Qiao Haidong’s herbs. Please don’t blame me for everything.”
“Impossible, if you’re not blocking him, why can’t he sell his herbs?”
“Because there’s a problem with his herbs, being of substandard quality is one thing, but they’ve also all become moldy and rotten. Who would buy such herbs? He didn’t tell you about such a serious issue with his herbs? Even I knew about it. How could you not know?”
