Chapter 642: 642, double standards are not allowed!
Xiao Heping looked at the little girl’s arrogantly unyielding demeanor and helplessly pinched the bridge of his nose, saying, "Alright, speak up. What would you like this time?"
He said this, but he knew very well that in the collaboration between the two parties, the pharmaceutical factory stood to gain more.
The little girl’s prescription was priceless.
Lin Tang thought of Ling Lei’s family, and her expression became serious.
"Uncle Heping, I have an idea..."
As soon as Xiao Heping heard she had an idea, his eyelids started twitching wildly.
The last time the little girl said that, she took away his machinery.
"...Go ahead."
Lin Tang noticed his worry and almost couldn’t maintain her serious face.
"Are you getting nervous, Uncle Heping? There’s no need to, it’s nothing troublesome for you."
Xiao Heping, seeing that she didn’t seem to be joking, let out a sigh of relief, but he said, "I’m just afraid you’ll make things difficult for me, no kidding."
Song Yi: "..." You’re really scared!
Lin Tang looked at him unconvinced.
You’re breaking character, you know. As soon as you say that, you reveal your true thoughts.
She waved her hand dismissively, with a look that said you don’t need to explain.
Swiftly changing the subject, "Let’s talk business. Uncle Heping, how did the medicine tests go?"
Xiao Heping responded earnestly, "Excellent."
Lin Tang raised an eyebrow, her face full of confidence, "Of course, the medicine I provide could never be any less."
Xiao Heping: "..." I know you’re exceptional, but can’t we be a bit more modest?
"Hmm." Xiao Heping gave in weakly and asked what really mattered, "What reward would you like?"
Lin Tang had planned in advance, "I lack nothing; I truly lack nothing, except for one thing..."
She paused.
In the courtyard, Granny Yang and Song Yi couldn’t help but look over, both curious about what that one thing was.
Xiao Heping played along, "What?"
"After the Lung Detox Medicine is released to the market, provide it for free to special populations."
As she said it, Lin Tang explained what she meant by special populations, "What I mean by special populations is those who have made great contributions to the country, the elderly without support, families in poverty... You figure out the details. I trust the factory’s capability to handle this."
Xiao Heping was stunned.
"You don’t want anything?" he asked.
Lin Tang looked at him puzzled, "Didn’t I tell you? I lack nothing."
What could she want? She desired to see the nation rise sooner, the people stand tall—the impossible!
Xiao Heping faced the girl’s ’are your ears not working’ look and felt a bit helpless.
"My ears are fine; it’s just that I’m afraid you might regret it," he explained feebly.
The little girl had no idea how much a prescription could be worth.
How could Lin Tang not know?
She was clearer about it than anyone else.
It’s just that, for her, some things were more important than profits.
"What’s there to regret? I’m living a life free from want now, much better than many others, if I get greedier, I fear retribution," Lin Tang said with a laugh.
Her savings could support her extravagance for ten years.
Healthy family, a loving partner by her side—how could such a fortunate person become any greedier?
Granny Yang, standing by, spit dismissively several times.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, bad luck doesn’t work, good luck does." She came forward and tapped Lin Tang’s head, "Quick, repeat after me... That’s silly talk from a child who doesn’t know any better."
The older generation still believed in such notions.
Lin Tang faced her serious expression and could only join in the spitting ritually.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, bad luck doesn’t work, good luck does! I was just joking."
Granny Yang: "You can’t just say anything..."
Xiao Heping watched his mother engage in superstition with the young girl before him, his forehead wrinkling enough to trap a mosquito.
Should he intervene?
Seeing the two deep in their animated chat, he restrained the impulse.
For today at least.
After chatting with Lin Tang for a while, Granny Yang remembered she was still in the middle of a serious talk with her son.
Slapping her thigh, she said, "I’ve interrupted your discussion. You keep talking, I’ll go cook. Tangtang, you and Heping brought some big bones; you should stay and try my cooking."
Lin Tang looked at Granny Yang’s eager eyes and finally nodded.
"Alright, then I’ll brazenly stay."
After being invited several times, if she refused again, it would look like she didn’t appreciate the gesture.
Granny Yang was delighted but spoke with feigned annoyance, "It’s about time you stayed. I’ve asked you several times, but you never show up. If you refuse again, this old lady might have to complain to your grandmother."
Shuzhen’s eyes went cold with a glance, asking who wasn’t intimidated.
Lin Tang inwardly chuckled.
...You can find Comrade Zhao Shuzhen, and I can find Comrade Lin Xiuyuan.
In front of Comrade Lin Xiuyuan, Zhao Shuzhen at best could be considered a defanged cat.
And fortunately, her grandpa liked her, so she wasn’t all that afraid.
However, in front of an elderly person, Lin Tang was happy to placate.
"Then, I must know my place well, and I thank Granny Yang for her mercy."
Granny Yang was charmed and content, affectionately tapping the young girl’s forehead, laughing, "You, with that sweet tongue, are simply too lovable."
Much better than the silent one next to her.
Xiao · Silent Type · Heping: "..." Just use my full name.
This was the first time Lin Tang agreed to stay, and Granny Yang was determined to use all her skills to win over the young girl’s stomach.
As the old lady entered the kitchen, Xiao Heping and Lin Tang resumed their conversation.
Xiao Heping put down his cup, his aura stern and righteous, his expression serious.
"Since you have no other demands, we’ll do as you say. I promise you, I won’t let you down. I owe you another favor," he declared.
Lin Tang valued the big boss’s favor greatly, standing up straight.
"Really? Then I’ve struck it rich," she said gleefully.
Xiao Heping was bemused.
Silly girl, who exactly is the one striking it rich?
"Silly!"
Lin Tang blinked, turning her head towards the kitchen to tattle, "Granny Yang, Uncle Heping called me silly!"
Xiao Heping speechless, "Aren’t you being childish?"
Just seconds ago, he had inwardly praised the girl for her maturity and altruism.
Withdrawn, withdrawn!
Lin Tang objected, "I’m not even of age yet. What’s wrong with seeking adults when upset?!"
Leveraging power is the true way to go.
Hearing Lin Tang’s voice, Granny Yang emerged from the kitchen, glaring at Xiao Heping, "Enough, bullying a young girl at your age, no wonder you haven’t found a match yet."
After speaking, her gaze softened when looking at Lin Tang, "Tangtang, don’t mind your Uncle Heping, he’s just bored."
The hypocrisy was beyond measure.
Xiao Heping’s mouth twitched, unsure how to respond.
Who bullied the young girl, and what does that have to do with finding a match?
His mom was playing her own tune!
Xiao Heping glanced sideways at Lin Tang with a laugh and said, "...An unmarried minor with a fiancé?"
Lin Tang took pride in it, beaming, "I’m proud of my fiancé."
Better than being of a certain age with no prospects.
Confronted with such a sharp-witted young girl, Xiao Heping felt his helplessness piling up, yet he couldn’t get angry; in fact, he felt somewhat glad.
Having a lively girl to banter with was rather amusing.
