"Jing Yu!"
"Jing Yu!"
Wang Long and Li Qin shouted at the same time.
"Why are you here?"
Jing Yu turned around and saw Wang Long and Li Qin. He frowned. He did not know why his uncle and aunt, whom he had not contacted for years, suddenly appeared.
"You're doing well, kid. You've opened a pharmacy in the county town. Why don't you invite your uncle and aunt in?" Wang Long said to Jing Yu with a smile.
Jing Yu's expression changed after hearing Wang Long's words. He gave a wry smile helplessly.
"Uncle, my shop has just started renovating. I can't even offer a sip of tea there. There are many medicine cabinets that have not been properly arranged yet. It's really too messy inside. I can't invite you into such a place."
Wang Long knew that this was an order to drive him away. However, for the sake of the little benefit that he was concerned about, Wang Long shamelessly went forward.
"It's okay, it's okay. We're not that thirsty. We'll just chat with you here."
Jing Yu had no choice. He also knew that Wang Long was a greedy person, so he could only greet him. "Uncle, aunt, come in and have a seat. Don't mind the mess here. Find an empty spot and make yourself comfortable."
He had to entertain these two greedy people and finish the rest of the show. Otherwise, they would never let it go.
"We will be going in, then."
Wang Long pulled Li Qin into the room.
Jing Yu brought Wang Long and Li Qin into a room. This room was the storeroom that would be used to store medicinal herbs in the future. As the renovation of the storeroom had just begun, the storeroom was relatively clean and spacious. However, they had yet to add any decent furniture. There were only two low stools, which was to let the workers temporarily rest their feet.

At the moment, Wang Long and Li Qin were sitting on the two low stools.
After entering Jing Yu's shop, they had already studied the environment here. The shop looked quite big. The renovation, rent, and the cost of buying medicinal herbs were definitely big expenses.
The two of them began to do the math in their hearts.
"Jing Yu, you must have invested a lot of money to open such a big pharmacy, right?" Li Qin asked first.
"It's alright. The demand for medicine is relatively high."
Jing Yu replied indifferently. He could not be too obviously perfunctory in front of them, but he also could not bring himself to pay too much attention to them.
"Oh..." Li Qin nodded and continued, "How much profit can you make in a month if you open a pharmacy?"
The couple did not actually care about how much money was invested. What they really cared about was how much money they could make from operating a pharmacy.
If they could not make much money, then the pharmacy would not have much value to earn. They did not need to waste their energy and time with Jing Yu, then. After all, they would not gain any advantage in a business at loss.
"Well, I'm not sure yet. We will find out when the medicine shop opens." Jing Yu replied indifferently.
"Boss Jing's pharmacy will definitely have a prosperous business. It's next to the well-known Medical Centre. You don't have to be afraid that there won't be any customers nearby!"
The people who were helping out with the renovation started to flatter Jing Yu as they joined in the conversation. They assumed that saying nice things about the boss could possibly bring them a raise. However, they did not seem to notice the hidden intentions behind these people.

"That's true!" When Li Qin heard the helpers' words, she immediately became excited and agreed. "Right, right! I am confident that our Jing Yu can earn a lot of money."
It seemed that they had to continue doing what they were going to do next. They had to get a little bonus from this shop. Moreover, even if this shop was losing money, they could just decide to withdraw. If this shop was actually profitable, then they could just wait for the money to come!
"Jing Yu, look, we are all family here. Logically speaking, uncle and aunt should also get a share of the bonus from this shop that you opened, right?"
Wang Long began his shameless speech.

"You react like someone who's never felt another's touch," Nex whispered, slipping his thumb under the band of her shorts. "So, have you not?" Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before.
