Chapter 772 They were the first to take action
Seeing the bruises all over Feng Jingjing's body, instead of saying anything concerning, Sister Feng pinched her hard out of frustration.
"How many times have I told you not to cause trouble for me outside, not to cause trouble for me outside, why didn't you listen? And you came back like this, do you want your dad to see you and harass me again? Or do you think life at home is too peaceful?"
Feng Jingjing covered her arm that was pinched and hurt, her eyes full of grievance, "They were the first to hit me. They hit me."
Sister Feng pinched her again, feeling unsatisfied. "Why do they only hit you and not others? How many times have I told you not to take yourself too seriously? You are from the countryside and you want to be like the people in the city? People play with you because they respect you."
Feng Jingjing bit her lips tightly, trying to say that she didn't take herself seriously and no one wanted to play with her.
But she knew that her mother would blame her even more after saying this.
Mrs. Feng got angry when she saw her like this, "Alright, alright, go change your clothes quickly, don't let your dad see you like this. Let me tell you first, don't cause me trouble at school, your dad is going to be promoted soon, you can't hold him back at this critical moment, or I will never forgive you."
…………………………
The department store is having a big sale at low prices during this period.
I heard that the department store’s business has been bad in the past two years, with losses every year, and the government plans to convert the department store into a joint-stock company.
Gu Peng came to Lin Chuxia's office early in the morning to tell her about this.
As a landmark building in Yan City, the department store still holds great weight in the minds of ordinary people.
Although the customer flow has dropped sharply in the past two years due to the suppression of clothing malls, if it is changed into a joint-stock mall and adopts a new management model, the prospects are uncertain.
"Mr. Wang is quite interested in the department store. She said that if Mr. Lin is interested in getting involved, she will summarize the potential prospects and future development of the department store. Of course, if Mr. Lin is not interested, she will also pay attention to the situation there so that our clothing mall can respond."
After that, he added a few more words to Lin Chuxia, "These are Mr. Wang's original words."
Of course Lin Chuxia could tell that these were Wang Tianxue's original words, but Gu Peng could not say such words.
But she was really not interested in the department store.
"According to the current development of Yan City, three shopping malls have basically reached saturation. Our clothing mall is currently developing well. There is no need for the department store to get involved. Let them do what they want. With this energy, we can further optimize the clothing mall, both in terms of service and product quality. When the department store is restructured and even renovated and reopened, it will definitely have a certain impact on the clothing mall. I told President Wang that as long as we can cope with the impact during this period, our clothing mall will definitely still be the boss of Yan City."
She now wants to invest her financial resources and energy into a Chinese herbal medicine planting base and a pharmaceutical factory.
Ancheng Food Factory had gone through this restructuring once before, and Lin Chuxia knew all too well the implications involved.
She really doesn't have the energy to deal with those government leaders and relevant departments now.
Gu Peng nodded. Lin Chuxia's reaction was within his expectations.
After negotiating the work matters, Gu Peng was not in a hurry to leave.
He poured a glass of water for Lin Chuxia, "I accidentally heard some rumors today, are you okay?"
Lin Chuxia took the water and looked at Gu Peng in confusion.
Gu Peng touched his nose and said, "It's about your husband. I heard that a child came to see him?"
Lin Chuxia suddenly realized, "Has this matter developed to this point? Has it reached your ears?"
That’s a bit exaggerated.
Gu Peng smiled and said, "Not really. I came back late yesterday afternoon, and you had already finished get off work. I wanted to talk to you in person about something, but when I got to your house, I heard some rumors. I thought you might not be in the mood for work at that time, so I came back."
Lin Chuxia nodded in understanding, "You can see now, I'm fine, it's all just a misunderstanding."
"Are you sure it's a misunderstanding?" Gu Peng met her gaze and smiled, "I don't mean anything else, I just want to care about the boss."
He pursed his lips and thought for a moment. "This reminds me of a cellmate in the northwest. He was two years younger than me, a very energetic young man. He was convicted of intentional injury. The victim was his wife. He and his wife were introduced to each other and they liked each other very much. They got married soon. After marriage, they lived in harmony and had a child the following year.
Such a harmonious life was destroyed soon after their child was born. A boy also came to their home, but he was looking for his wife. The young man then learned that his wife had had a man before marrying him and had given birth to a child. The young man couldn't bear to leave his wife and child.
He originally thought of accepting the boy and even planned to adopt him. However, not long after, he discovered that his wife was still in contact with the boy's father. She had been tricked into going back to her parents' home for a short stay several times, only to go find the boy's father. The money he had worked so hard to earn was also taken by his wife to give the boy's father alcohol and gambling.
He thought his wife had some difficulties or was threatened by the boy's father, but it turned out that it was not the case. His wife was willing, and even though she married him, she still had the boy's father in her heart. It was just that her family did not agree at the beginning that she did not live with the boy's father. The young man could not accept this fact for a while. His happy life for several years was all a scam. He impulsively wanted to kill. When he raised the knife to the man, his wife rushed forward and also testified to the public security comrades that he wanted to kill someone..."
After hearing what he said, Lin Chuxia smiled helplessly, "Are you worried that I will become your cellmate? Don't worry, I know Qin Yang, and I know the situation well."
Gu Peng frowned slightly. "Do you know his present and his past? I heard that he was already 26 years old when he met you, and he had never even met you before marrying you. Don't you think it's abnormal? How can you not have met your partner before getting married? In the final analysis, he just doesn't care who he marries. Why doesn't he care? Now there's such a big child coming to him..."
"Gu Peng," Lin Chuxia interrupted him, "I know you care about me, but I do know the inside story of this matter."
"How did you get the inside information you claimed to have? Did that man tell you? If that's the case, then whatever he said must be the truth. If you believe it, aren't you too naive?"
