"茜茜, do you know what it means to die?"
Lin Xiaoqian nodded, "I know. Dying means going to a very far place, where you can never see them again."
"Daddy, airplanes can go to very far places."
Lin Chen shook his head, "Airplanes can't reach it either. The place you go when you die is very, very far away, and you can never see them again."
Lin Xiaoqian hugged Lin Chen tightly.
"Daddy, you can't die."
Xu Mengyao came in at that moment.
She quickly said, "Qianqian, don't talk nonsense. It's unlucky to talk about death, you know?"
Lin Chen looked at Xu Mengyao, "Qianqian is still young, she doesn't understand what it means. Wife, do you have any plans for today?"
Xu Mengyao shook her head.
"No, why?"
Lin Chen smiled, "Vice President Zhao sent me a message saying that Zhao Tianyou is in the hospital. I have to go see him."
"Which hospital?"
"I'll drive. You drank so much wine, it probably hasn't digested after a whole night. You can't drive today."
Xu Mengyao said.
Lin Chen told her the address.
After breakfast, Lin Chen and his family set off. Xu Mengyao arrived outside the hospital Lin Chen was going to.
"Husband, Qianqian and I won't go in. We'll wait for you in the car."
Xu Mengyao said.
Lin Chen nodded.
He entered the hospital and quickly arrived at the inpatient department.
"806, this is it."
Lin Chen muttered to himself.
Zhao Tianyou was in a single room. Lin Chen pushed open the door and saw Zhao Tianyou, who also saw Lin Chen.
Zhao Tianyou had been whipped all over his body. Now he was covered in medicine, standing in the room in his shorts.
He preferred to stand, as lying down was very painful.
Lin Chen was stunned.
Zhao Huaiyuan was so honest? Zhao Tianyou had been whipped too hard.
Many parts of Zhao Tianyou's body were swollen.
Some areas that had been whipped multiple times were torn and bleeding.
"Lin Chen!"
"Why are you here?"
Zhao Tianyou glared at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen smiled, "Your dad told me. Zhao Tianyou, you're in a bit of a state. Will all these wounds get infected? Should I get some alcohol to disinfect them for you?"
Zhao Tianyou: "..."
"I thank you!"
Zhao Tianyou gritted his teeth.
"Click!" "Click!"
Lin Chen took a few pictures of Zhao Tianyou with his phone.
"What are you doing?"
Zhao Tianyou shouted sharply.
Lin Chen: "Taking pictures to post on WeChat Moments and Douyin. I'll spend some money on promotion, it should go viral."
"I've already thought about the caption."
"A man was beaten violently, what are the hidden reasons behind it?"
Zhao Tianyou: "..."
If Lin Chen did that, he would completely lose face.
He said with a dark face, "Lin Chen, don't mess around. If you mess around, be careful I'll be rude to you in the future."
Lin Chen said with a half-smile, "You still want to be rude? Didn't your dad beat you enough this time?"
"It's you!"
Zhao Tianyou glared at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen said with a smile, "You lack education, so I asked your dad to teach you. But it seems like the education wasn't thorough enough, so I'll talk to him again."
Zhao Tianyou's body trembled.
Another beating? He felt like he wanted to die after yesterday's beating.
"Brother Lin, don't say anymore."
"I submit, can't I admit my mistake?"
"Yesterday, my dad whipped me with a leather belt soaked in salt."
Zhao Tianyou said with fear in his eyes.
Lin Chen's eyes showed surprise, "What did you do? Even if your dad is educating you, it shouldn't be to this extent, right?"
"Didn't you fight back?"
Zhao Tianyou was silent.
Seeing him like this, Lin Chen knew he might have guessed correctly.
"The caption needs to be changed with such hidden information."
"I'll think about it carefully later--"
Lin Chen said, looking thoughtful.
Zhao Tianyou: "Brother Lin, I was really wrong. I promise I will never make the same mistake again. Give me a chance, don't post the photos."
"I beg you."
Lin Chen put away his phone and said lightly, "Zhao Tianyou, if you mess around again in the future, it won't just be a beating from your dad, the consequences will be more serious."
"I won't post the photos for now, I'll see how you behave in the future."
After speaking, Lin Chen turned and left.
He came to see what Zhao Tianyou looked like. Zhao Tianyou's words hurt Lin Xiaoqian, and he had to be punished.
He was quite satisfied with the current result.
Being whipped with a leather whip soaked in salt, the taste must be very refreshing.
"Husband, how was it?"
"Was Zhao Huaiyuan just going through the motions?"
Lin Chen returned to the car and Xu Mengyao asked.
Lin Chen handed the phone to Xu Mengyao.
Xu Mengyao was stunned when she saw the photos, "This beating is a bit harsh."
Lin Chen: "It's even harsher than what you see. Zhao Tianyou probably hit Zhao Huaiyuan, so Zhao Huaiyuan whipped him with a leather belt soaked in salt."
"Did you vent your anger?"
Xu Mengyao nodded, "Zhao Tianyou deserved it. He actually hit Zhao Huaiyuan. With Zhao Huaiyuan's temper, it's estimated that Zhao Tianyou won't be able to take over the family business in the future."
"He'll probably only get some living expenses in the future."
Lin Chen said with a faint smile, "If that's the case, that's the best. If the main account is ruined, Zhao Huaiyuan can completely train a small account."
Lin Xiaoqian: "Daddy, I know what a main account is, it's a musical instrument."
Lin Chen smiled, "Qianqian, you're right, it's a musical instrument. Have you and your mom decided where to go?"
"Daddy, we're going to the zoo."
"I want to see the big lions and big tigers, hee hee."
Lin Xiaoqian said sweetly.
As long as she can be with her mom and dad, she's very happy.
"Okay, we'll go to the zoo, let's go!"
Lin Chen said with a smile.
An hour later, Lin Chen and his family arrived at the zoo.
There are many animals in the zoo that can be fed. The food for feeding costs money, but it's a small matter for Lin Chen and his family.
As long as Lin Xiaoqian is happy.
Lin Xiaoqian fed the animals while Lin Chen taught her some knowledge.
His taming skills are improving.
Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen with surprised eyes.
Lin Chen actually knew all about animals. She felt that Lin Chen was a treasure, with many hidden gems inside.
"Beep beep!"
At noon, Lin Chen's phone rang.
It was Zhang Qingyuan, the calligraphy master.
"Elder Zhang, what's the matter?"
Lin Chen answered the phone and asked with a smile.
Zhang Qingyuan said on the other end of the phone, "Master Lin, when will your private kitchen open? There is someone who might go if I tell him about it."
Lin Chen: "Elder Zhang, it might open next week. If there are no suitable guests, it's okay to open the week after next."
"I don't rely on this to make money."
Zhang Qingyuan said, "Master Lin, the person I'm talking about is a food critic. He is very rich but also very picky."
"He knows many top food critics."
Lin Chen raised his eyebrows, this was indeed a target customer.
Top food critics are very picky and persistent about food, and top food critics are often very rich.
"Elder Zhang, you can talk to him about it."
"Please tell him my rules. If he agrees, give him my phone number. If he doesn't agree, you don't need to say much to him."
Lin Chen said.
"Okay, Master Lin."
Zhang Qingyuan hung up the phone after speaking.
Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen, "Husband, is the private kitchen going to open?"
Lin Chen smiled slightly, "No rush... the opening will be after our engagement."
Lin Xiaoqian: "Daddy, what is an engagement? Can we sleep together at night after the engagement?"
