Chapter 345 Is he faking madness?

On an autumn morning, a cool breeze begins to rise.

Li Yingtang was the first to arrive at the store. While she was checking the inventory, Xiao Shi came in and said, "I didn't see anyone when I came in. I wondered who it was. Good morning, boss."

While silently counting, Li Yingtang didn't forget to reply, "Good morning."

Xiao Shi said, "When I left work yesterday, Xiao Ma told me that I would be starting work an hour or two later today."

Li Yingtang noted down the inventory: "Okay."

Xiao Shi said shyly, "I'd like to see your partner for a medical appointment later. Could you take me there?"

Li Yingtang observed her closely: "Your complexion is normal, and you look healthy with a rosy glow. You don't seem to be in any discomfort. How about we wait until he gets off work to check on you?"

Xiao Shi said, "Actually, it's not that I'm sick. My cousin from my uncle's family came to visit from the countryside during the holidays. In the middle of the night, she suddenly went crazy and started kissing everyone she could. I told my family before that your boyfriend is a doctor at the First Affiliated Hospital, and my parents asked me to pull some strings."

Li Yingtang: "Kissing everyone you see? What kind of weird habit is that? Do you even kiss old men?"

Xiao Shi: "...Only close to the young."

Li Yingtang: "." Only kisses the young? Are you faking it? "You wouldn't kiss my boyfriend, would you?"

Xiao Shi: "We'll hold her down then."

“No need for me to guide you, you can go now.” Li Yingtang told Xiao Shi the location of Qin Xian’s office: “If he has surgery, he may not be seeing patients in his office. If he is in his office, he knows you, and he will naturally lead you there if he knows which department your cousin is seeing.”

"Sigh." Xiao Shi hurried away.

Li Yingtang stayed in the shop until noon before Xiao Shi returned.

Unable to contain her curiosity, she asked privately, "How's your cousin doing?"

Xiao Shi looked worried: "The doctor at the hospital said she has bipolar disorder, commonly known as 'love mania,' which is a mental health issue."

"so serious?"

Xiao Shi nodded: "Fortunately, this disease doesn't cause permanent madness. Medication can restore normalcy, but it may relapse."

Li Yingtang: "What caused this?" You can't just suddenly go crazy for no reason.

"I don't know, the doctor didn't say," Xiao Shi said.

Li Yingtang: "Doctors don't know the cause; they can only diagnose and prescribe medication based on the patient's reaction."

"My uncle and aunt didn't say anything. They said it's because my house is in a bad location, and it's bad for my cousin," Xiao Shi said with a headache.

Li Yingtang: "." Playing the rogue? "And then?"

"They asked my family to cover my cousin's medical expenses." What Xiao Shi didn't mention was that her uncle and aunt asked her to introduce her cousin to work at the store, but she refused.

Even the least likable pony in the shop has its merits.

They're number one in sales.

Talking badly about the boss or making jokes about him, the boss always turns a blind eye.

Her cousin was greedy, lazy, and mentally ill.

If she goes crazy one day and actually forcibly kisses the boss's girlfriend, wouldn't the boss kill her?
"What was your parents' reaction?" Li Yingtang asked.

“My mom agreed, and my dad didn’t say anything. Anyway, I’m not going to pay for it,” Xiao Shi said.

Li Yingtang understood. Xiao Shi's mother was a "brother-supporting demon," and Xiao Shi's father was a "good-natured man." Not only were they not willing to contribute financially and physically, but they were also exploiting their daughter. Sometimes, ineffective family relationships not only fail to provide emotional support but become a burden.

"."

Li Yingtang left the cosmetics store in the afternoon and, while passing through the long street, caught a glimpse of Qiao Yuanyue buying fruit by the roadside.

Li Yingtang approached and heard the stall owner ask for six mao (0.6 yuan).

"It's too expensive, I don't want it."

The shopkeeper was furious: "You don't want them after they've been weighed? A net bag of twenty or so, and you're asking for more than six cents?!" Li Yingtang paid the bill: "We'll pay for them together."

The boss smiled and accepted, "Yes."

Qiao Yuanyue was a beat slow to react: "Tangtang, you don't need to pay."

"It's okay, sister. Have you had lunch yet?"

"I've eaten." As soon as Qiao Yuanyue finished speaking, her stomach growled, and her face immediately turned bright red with embarrassment.

Li Yingtang pulled the other person into a restaurant and ordered a bowl of beef noodles.

Qiao Yuanyue said, "I'm sorry to have troubled you to spend money."

Li Yingtang: "Don't be shy, has your brother-in-law eaten? Why didn't he come with you?"

"Not yet. He's sick. He said he saw you last night, and Xiao Xian said you didn't come back. He went back and yelled at me that he saw a ghost. He had a high fever this morning and is resting at the guesthouse after taking medicine." Qiao Yuanyue sighed, "There's always something going on all day long." "I asked him what you look like, and he said you covered your face and head, and he couldn't see clearly. I told him he's delirious. Who covers their face and head at home for no reason?"

Feeling guilty, Li Yingtang actually fell ill from fright: "Boss, another order of beef fried rice, to go."

"okay."

Li Yingtang continued, "I went to the night market with a friend last night and didn't get home until very late. Ah Xian brought this up, and I thought he was just trying to fool me."

Qiao Yuanyue's expression also changed: "Could it be that we really encountered something evil? Has anyone around here experienced something like this?"

“No, you should also tell your brother-in-law not to scare himself. We are both honest and upright people, how could we possibly run into that kind of person?” Li Yingtang said.

Qiao Yuanyue should be the one.

After the meal, Li Yingtang led the other person into the mall and bought a bunch of food and supplies: "Sister, take these."

Qiao Yuanyue didn't know what to say: "Thanks to you two, otherwise it would have been really difficult to come to Yanjing City."

Li Yingtang: "You're Ah-Xian's older sister, so you should help each other. You and your brother-in-law both have jobs, won't your employers object to you taking a long leave?"

Qiao Yuanyue: "He's going back to his hometown to work tomorrow morning. I'll be waiting for my mother-in-law to come here. I'll have to trouble you all again."

Li Yingtang comforted her, "It's alright, there's nothing we can do about patients, and you didn't want this either."

Qiao Yuanyue was deeply moved: "Oh." This girl is so kind. None of the young wives she knew were as considerate and generous as her.

"."

After Li Yingtang and Qiao Yuanyue parted ways, they walked straight down the street.

I was stopped halfway by someone; it was the owner of Meiju.

"Xiao Li, what have you been up to lately? No orders coming in? One order every five or six days, and they're all small ones. You've already taken all the money. Have you found another company? One that's cheaper than us or something?"

Li Yingtang replied calmly, "No way! Business is bad."

"Your shop can still maintain three or four orders a day during the off-season, so why is it all gone during the peak season?" The boss observed Li Yingtang's expression.

Li Yingtang countered, "I also want to know the reason."

The boss then said, "The payment we received from your customer has already been used to offset your subsequent orders. Starting today, your orders will be re-paid."

“Okay.” Li Yingtang chatted with the owner of Meiju for a while.

Back in the shop, he said to Meng Qin, "Xiao Meng, from now on, no matter how big or small the order is, once it goes to Haitang Furniture Factory, Meiju will start asking me for money."

Meng Qin: "Didn't our customers settle their final payments with the homeowners when they delivered the goods? I remember there were six other orders produced in their factory, all small orders, but they still amounted to more than four hundred yuan. Why do we need more?"

Li Yingtang: "We haven't received payment from customers who haven't been delivered to their homes. We'll place another order once the factory helps us collect the remaining payment from the homeowners, and we'll continue doing this until all accounts are settled. Remember, if Meiju asks, just say we have no business."

"Yingtang." Su Yunling entered the store with a smile, followed by Su Yunjiao.

Li Yingtang greeted them, saying, "Good afternoon, sisters. Please come in."
