Feng Jingjing was cornered by a few people, she didn’t say a word, but fear was evident in her eyes.
The people opposite seed to enjoy this feeling, arrogantly laughing as they slapped her face, "So scared? You looked quite impressive today."
Then they said to the girls beside them, "Co and see, even the top student in our class has monts of fear."
Surrounding them, the girls burst into unrestrained laughter.
Feng Jingjing bit her lip tightly, tears falling one by one.
The girls grew impatient, directly slapping her a few tis, "How are you so amazing? As a transfer student scoring 100, who are you trying to embarrass?"
"Exactly, aren’t you country folk supposed to value hard work and endurance? Not feeding chickens and pigs in your rural areas, so why co to the city?"
"Who are you crying pathetically for? Seeing you look so pathetic just makes want to hit you. A loser should stay a loser..."
One student even grabbed her backpack, pulled out her 100-point test paper, and tore it to shreds.
Feng Jingjing hugged her head, not daring to resist or cry for help, not even daring to make a sound.
Because she knew, the more she cried, the harder they would hit her.
She remained silent, letting them hit and insult her, knowing they would eventually leave her alone.
Sure enough, after a while of punching and kicking, they stopped and walked away without turning back.
She slowly squatted down to pick up her shredded test paper.
Suddenly she felt her mother’s words might be right, these city folks disliked them country folks, no matter how they were, they’d always be an eyesore.
Otherwise, how could she explain why she hadn’t offended them, yet they constantly stopped her to hit and insult her?
They ca to the city just to be bullied.
...............
Three days later, Zhuang Jingshu returned, staying in the city for only a few days before asking Lin Chuxia to prepare her so herbal dicine, then left with the dicine again.
Although Zhuang Jingshu’s health had greatly improved, Old Sir He suggested she rest more, but she seed unable to relax.
From Zhuang Yang’s words, Lin Chuxia could roughly tell that Zhuang Jingshu had traveled back across the seas for her current endeavor.
It was her so-called last wish.
When Lin Chuxia next saw Zhuang Jingshu it was a week later.
She ca to see Old Sir He for a follow-up examination and to begin the next course of treatnt.
Old Sir He checked her pulse, his expression calm afterward, "Though your body has been adjusted well, if you continue to neglect it as before, even an immortal wouldn’t be able to help. You are most aware of how your health deteriorated to this point, from now on, the length and quality of your life is down to you."
Zhuang Yang was imdiately anxious upon hearing this, "Chairwoman, I’ve said before, you can leave so matters to , you should listen to the elder and stop being so headstrong."
Yet, Zhuang Jingshu seed unfazed, she even smiled, "The elder is just trying to scare , I know my body best. With the elder’s dicine, I feel a few years younger, this is a feeling I haven’t had for years. Moreover, isn’t it said in traditional dicine that the heart’s ailnt needs heart’s dicine to treat? The elder is right, I know why my health turned like this, now I’ve found my heart’s dicine. Coupled with the elder’s treatnt, I believe it’ll work wonders."
Old Sir He responded to her words by calling Lin Chuxia over to help write a prescription.
Traditional dicine addresses issues from the root, its treatnt is slow, but achieves results that Western dicine cannot.
Zhuang Jingshu had been adjusted for over a month, starting from this set of dicine, her treatnt cycle changed from weekly to every ten days.
Lin Chuxia could also see that after over a month of adjustnt, Zhuang Jingshu’s condition had indeed improved significantly.
While waiting for Zhuang Yang to fetch the dicine, she enthusiastically chatted with Lin Chuxia about hotown matters.
Only then did Lin Chuxia realize, Zhuang Jingshu had been to Ancheng County during her absence.
"Have you considered what I ntioned last ti? During my days in Ancheng County, I heard that the Xiyang Food Factory belongs to Miss Lin. I previously only knew Miss Lin was in the food and clothes business, but never expected such a large food factory, Miss Lin is indeed outstanding, I didn’t misjudge."
Lin Chuxia smiled humbly, since the Xiyang Food Factory was ntioned, she did have so ideas.
Previously uncertain how to propose them to Ms. Zhuang, as she sought long-term investnt projects.
She even considered waiting until collaboration was achieved with the Xiyang Food Factory and discussing privately with Zhuang Yang afterward.
Since Ms. Zhuang brought it up now, Lin Chuxia didn’t hold back and shared her thoughts.
Apart from the Xiyang Food Factory, the rged Old Food Factory has all outdated equipnt.
These machines have simple technology and low efficiency, unable to et current market standards.
Lin Chuxia intended to import a batch of foreign food production equipnt through Ms. Zhuang’s company.
She had already noticed that so equipnt was manufactured at Ms. Zhuang’s factory.
For those unavailable, she believed it wouldn’t be difficult for Ms. Zhuang.
Indeed, after proposing the requirent, Ms. Zhuang wasn’t surprised nor displayed any reluctance.
"You can negotiate these things with Zhuang Yang directly, I’m more interested in our cooperative project."
Lin Chuxia smiled slightly, "Ms. Zhuang, you must adhere to the dical advice, seeing your urgency in work reflects you’re a workaholic when it cos to business."
Thinking of her past experiences, speaking bluntly, no achievent is worth risking one’s life for.
However, Lin Chuxia had considered this matter for a long ti, "Please wait for a mont, I’ve recently drafted a project plan and would like your review."
Lin Chuxia got up to fetch the docunts from the room, while Zhuang Jingshu raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Truthfully, she proposed cooperation with Lin Chuxia because Old Sir He cured her illness and Lin Chuxia took great care of her during her pregnancy.
The small diagnosis fee was insufficient to express her gratitude for Old Sir He’s attempts.
Even if Lin Chuxia proposed any project, she planned to offer financial assistance.
Even if it ended in failure.
Her visit to Ancheng County revealed the connection between the Xiyang Food Factory and Lin Chuxia, as well as the conflicts between the Xiyang Food Factory and the Old Food Factory, which was a pleasant surprise.
After all, according to Zhuang Yang’s investigation, Lin Chuxia managed only two restaurants and one mall, and none were directly managed by her.
