Chapter 380: Three hundred and eighty Home and Away_1

"Oh, what’s the need for any hangover soup? I feel absolutely great right now, as if I could down another ten bottles no problem.

Five million! I never thought I could accomplish something so amazing before.

But now, I believe I can earn fifty million or even five hundred million in the future.

When Dad hands over the Ji Family to me, our clan will surely become the number one family in Chuan City."

Ji Pianran rambled on to Gu Chen as she held onto him.

"Actually, today our restaurant in Chuan City also opened. We didn’t make any money this afternoon,

but the place was bustling."

Gu Chen said to her with a smile on his face.

"I know, I know, it’s that little shop on Xingye Road, right? Uncle Guang had already told me about it.

You spent three hundred thousand before, you must have been cheated. I’m telling you, the land in Chuan City isn’t worth that much at all.

Maybe you could have bargained them down a bit more, and then you would definitely have earned much more."

At this point, Ji Pianran paused, then hurriedly spoke up to reassure him.

"But don’t worry, honey, we’re rolling in money right now, so even if we lose a bit, it’s not a big deal.

If you ask me, you should just focus on taking care of Tangtang at home and leave the money-making to me in the future.

Also, Dad said today that he will move me closer to him soon, so I won’t have to stay at the grassroots level anymore.

Give me another year or two to cultivate my own team, and by then Dad will be ready to retire.

If you ever find yourself short of cash at home, just tell me, there’s no need to bother with those unprofitable little shops.

If people knew that my husband was actually selling breakfast on the streets, they would probably laugh at me."

When she finished speaking, Ji Pianran suddenly remembered something and continued to ask Gu Chen.

"Right, honey, was Tangtang okay in kindergarten today? Was she bullied by anyone?"

Gu Chen shook his head and said in a gentle voice.

"Don’t worry. I already asked her at dinner, and she’s doing well at school.

Plus, she gets along very well with the other kids.

But her teacher told me this morning that in three days’ time, there will be a parent-child field trip at the kindergarten.

Parents need to participate too. Pian Ran, will you have time then?"

When Ji Pianran heard this, she was taken aback and hesitated before saying.

"In three days? I think I should have time then."

Gu Chen responded with a hint of helplessness.

"Pian Ran, you’ve said before that our family has already earned plenty, haven’t you?

Why put yourself through so much effort? And seeing you so exhausted, it really hurts me."

When he finished, Ji Pianran nodded and replied.

"Yes, our family does have a lot of money, but... we can’t just neglect the business, right?

Moreover, the Xu Family has already fallen. The entire Chinese medicine market in Chuan City has opened up so much opportunity.

We can’t let it go cheap to others, can we?

Lately, I’ve been continuously acquiring their herb fields, factories, and equipment with Dad.

These are all high-quality assets, but they’re being sold cheaper than cabbage now.

Isn’t it because, apart from our Ji Family in Chuan City,

nobody else has the ability to absorb so much of the industry? So we must act quickly.

Otherwise, if people from other provinces get wind of it and snatch away a part of it, we’ll really lose out.

Just in a few months, our Ji Family’s influence has grown stronger than it had over several decades.

Besides, Dad is getting quite old, and I’m doing all this to relieve his worries as soon as possible."

Ah, you wouldn’t understand these things even if I told you, honey, just stay at home and take good care of Tangtang.

As long as Tangtang can grow up healthy and happy, you will be the biggest hero in our family. I can handle the outside matters from now on."

When Gu Chen heard this, he couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief, and then he helped her shift into a more comfortable position on the sofa.

"Pian Ran, you’re drunk. I still have a hangover soup cooking in the pot. You should drink some later."

After finishing his words, Gu Chen turned and went to the kitchen.

Soon, he came out with a bowl of warm hangover soup.

However, when he looked up, he found that Ji Pianran had already lain down on the living room sofa and fallen fast asleep.

Seeing this, Gu Chen could only put down the hangover soup with a somewhat helpless look.

He then helped her take off her high heels and coat and started massaging her slightly stiff calves bit by bit.

Only after he felt her blood circulation getting better did he pick her up and carry her back to the bedroom.

The next morning, Ji Pianran woke up from her sleep and could not help but slowly open her eyes.

Though she wanted to sit up, she felt the room spinning and a pricking pain in her head.

She tried to recall what had happened, but could only remember feeling very happy about closing a big deal last night.

After returning home, she had sat down and talked with Gu Chen for a while and then drifted into a drowsy sleep.

She couldn’t remember anything that had happened afterward.

Ji Pianran rubbed her temples hard and then hurriedly checked her clothes.

Relieved to find not a single stain, she let out a sigh of relief.

She had been afraid that she might have vomited everywhere after getting drunk.

Regardless of whether at home or outside, if that were true, it would be too embarrassing.

Ji Pianran turned her head and noticed a cup of warm water on her bedside table.

Being extremely thirsty, she quickly grabbed it and gulped it down, feeling much better afterward.

However, her stomach started to rumble at that moment.

She then realized that in the excitement of the previous night, she hadn’t eaten anything.

After washing up quickly, she went downstairs to find something to eat.

It was important to fill her stomach first, and then she could go back to her room and catch up on some sleep.

After all, it was only just past six o’clock; it wouldn’t be too late to get up and go to work later.

But just when Ji Pianran had made her way down to the living room on the first floor,

she saw her husband and daughter already up early, sitting at the dining table eating breakfast.

This made her feel a bit embarrassed.

Gu Chen just smiled slightly and said,

"It’s rare for you to wake up so early. I thought you wouldn’t be up until eight. Come sit down and join us for breakfast."

After speaking, he turned back to the kitchen and brought out the warm meals he had left there.

"This is the fresh hangover soup I made this morning. Have some while it’s hot, Pian Ran.

Otherwise, I’m afraid you’re going to have a headache all morning with that hangover."

While placing the breakfast and hangover soup in front of Ji Pianran, Gu Chen spoke to her with a smile.

Hearing this, Ji Pianran felt her heart warm slightly.

She then picked up the bowl of hangover soup in front of her and took a sip.

She didn’t know what Gu Chen had done, but the soup tasted incredibly fresh and delicious.

And it seemed as though after drinking it, her head really didn’t hurt as much, as if being pricked by needles.

This surprised Ji Pianran quite a bit.
