CHAPTER 354
"Hi, i. Good afternoon." Zhao Fu greeted with a smile.
"Smiling does not suit you, Zhao Fu," Jiang ilin said before walking away from behind the counter.
"But I rember you used to tell to smile when we were together. You uses to like it," Zhao Fu said.
"That was when we were together. Now, we are not. And I simply find it... repulsive."
"What? You can't be serious. You are just saying it to piss off and it is not working, my dear," Zhao Fu continued following her.
"What do you want now, Zhao Fu? Stop bothering and following . It is creepy and annoying and my custors are beginning to stare," Jiang ilin turned and glared at him.
"Well, they can stare all they want. It is not like we are doing sothing that is inappropriate," Zhao Fu shrugged.
"As for what I want, hmm... Let us see... I want to take you out for lunch. You have been working non-stop since this morning. You should eat," he added.
"So you have been stalking since morning?" Jiang ilin asked with wide eyes.
"Yes and no. No, in the sense that you can't call what I was doing stalking. I was simply looking out for you."
"Well, I do not need it. I can't believe you are a general or whatever it is you are. This is illegal," Jiang ilin stated.
"What is illegal? looking out for you?" Zhao Fu asked as he leaned on one of the empty shelves and watched her stack them with foodstuffs.
"Yes. That is illegal."
"Then why are you not calling the police?"
Silence
Jiang ilin just ignored him and continued placing different vegetables on the shelf.
"You see. You can't call the police because you can't bear seeing being dragged out of your store. You still like , right?"
"Sigh. Zhao Fu," Jiang ilin turned to him with a serious face.
"Yea, dear," Zhao Fu stood straight.
"We are not kids nor are we teenagers anymore. Now run along now. I have work to do," she shooed him away.
"Now you are treating like a kid. Co on, don't be too shy to agree. Let help you with that," Zhao Fu picked up a vegetable and placed it on the shelf.
"No. You are not a worker here, so you can't do that," Jiang ilin said.
"Okay. Then, can I be your worker? You can employ imdiately since you own this place, right? I am very agile and strong. I can carry stuff for you."
"Nope. That is not happening. If I employ you, you will end up annoying which I do not have the strength for," Jiang ilin disagreed.
"Alright. Since I can't just watch you do your job, then maybe I should just buy everything in this store of yours so that you can co with for lunch," Zhao Fu thought out loud.
"..."
"I would not still go on anywhere with you. You are still so weird. Go away."

The day went fast as usual. Li Fengjin took to his words. He picked both Bai Renxiang and Bak Xiaojin from work and school before taking them ho.
That evening, Charlie called that there was progress in the cream they were making to heal burns on the skin. They had made a lot and even sent a sample to Mr Bao for testing.
Bai Renxiang sighed in relief.
"So, what did Mr Bao say? Can it work its purpose?" She asked Charlie.
"He said he would get back to us first thing tomorrow morning. If or cos out great, we can start sales and get this over with," Charlie said.
"Oh, that is good. If it appears to be good, then we can start the press conference imdiately. Can it be possible like that?"
"It can. We already have where to set things up in the company. The arrangent will not be too excessive because we used that place for press conferences. It is a big hall," Charlie inford her.
"Alright."
"Young miss, are you really sure you want to do this press conference? It will be all over the news. Everyone will see it," Charlie said.
There was a tinge of worry and concern in his voice. He knew the reason why she and her mother ca here in the first place. What if her past cos back?
"To be honest, I am a bit nervous because of the number of people and questions that I will be asked," Bai Renxiang says.
"That is not what I an. I an that scandal. What if one of the reporters brings that up?"
"I have nothing to be scared of because grandpa said that only a few selected dia will be at the press conference. Also, every question is centred on this issue. Also, I have started working on it. I need to clear my na if that ever happens any day at any ti, anywhere."
"I was so relaxed that you were okay. I should have persuaded elder master Jiang to allow our n to find the truth being that lying scandal," Charlie said with regret.
"It is okay. I was so scared for mum and the thought of being pregnant that I did not want to know the truth. I an, the damage has already been done. But now... Now is different."
"I understand. Rember that the Jiang's family trained n to see yours too. Just give an order and they would follow you," Charlie said.
"Alright. As for the investigation of the rat in the company, how is it going?"
"We are still on it. But this case is very mysterious. I don't know how that person managed to get to last month's supply and spoiled everything."
"It baffles too. This person must be out to ruin Jaing Corporation for good. We can't let that happen. Please make sure that no stone is left unturned in finding this culprit. I am leaving this in your hands, Charlie."
"I will not let you down, boss."
