Chapter 40: 037: Inexplicably Familiar_1
In today’s society, there’s every type of person.
News of people faking accidents is also a common occurrence.
He Meili had seen it more than once.
There have been several such incidents on South Street alone.
Without tens of millions in assets, who would dare to help a fallen elderly person on the side of the road?
Upon hearing He Meili’s words, Lin Guixiang’s outstretched hand immediately withdrew, looking at the person on the ground, she asked, “Are you okay, ma’am?”
Looking at the elderly figure sprawled on the ground, Lin Guixiang suddenly remembered the night she herself had ingested pesticides.
No one understood better than her what it felt like to be on the brink of death and without help.
After hesitating for a bit, Lin Guixiang decided to help the elderly person up, “Ma’am, I’m going to help you up, but please don’t try to scam me.”
The old lady was still conscious, but her speech was unclear, “Cand…cand…”
“Candy?” Lin Guixiang frowned, “Ma’am, what are you saying?”
“Cand…cand…”
“Ma’am, don’t rush, speak slowly.”
Seeing that Lin Guixiang ignored her advice and helped up the elderly person, He Meili was incredibly anxious.
Lin Guixiang was just too naive!
Now she was definitely going to be scammed.
Seeing Lin Guixiang helping up Grandma Lu who was on the ground, the owner of Zhang Ji’s shop, Ma Xiaolan, also came to watch the excitement, Ma Xiaolan crossed her arms, looked at He Meili, and whispered, “Tsk! Lin Guixiang is so bold to actually help her up!”
The reason Ma Xiaolan did not immediately advise Lin Guixiang not to help, like He Meili had, was because she wanted to see the commotion unfold.
If Lin Guixiang ended up getting scammed, they would face a huge penalty fee.
With nowhere to turn, they would definitely opt to transfer their unprofitable shop at a low price.
Then her own sister could take over the shop.
With this in mind, Ma Xiaolan’s expression grew even more smug.
He Meili frowned slightly, “Sister Guixiang is really too impulsive.”
She had hardly reacted when Lin Guixiang had already helped the person up.
Grandma Lu’s voice was very weak, continuously repeating the word ‘cand’.
Lin Guixiang couldn’t figure out what the old lady was trying to say. As she took out her phone to dial 120, a piece of candy fell out of the elderly woman’s pocket.
Seeing the chocolate candy that had fallen to the ground, and thinking of the old woman’s slurred speech, Lin Guixiang quickly asked, “Are you trying to say ‘candy’? If so, please close your eyes tightly.”
Upon hearing this, the elderly woman squeezed her eyes shut forcefully.
Was it truly candy?
Lin Guixiang picked up the candy from the ground, puzzled, “Do you want to eat this candy?”
Eat candy?
Ma Xiaolan almost burst out laughing when she heard this.
What time was it to be eating candy?
Just wait.
This old woman would soon be asking Lin Guixiang for money.
The next second, Grandma Lu squeezed her eyes even more tightly.
Lin Guixiang was taken aback?
She really wanted candy!
Without a moment to spare, Lin Guixiang quickly unwrapped the candy and stuffed the chocolate into the elderly woman’s mouth.
The chocolate melted quickly once it was in her mouth.
A sweet taste instantly spread across her taste buds.
Grandma Lu’s condition visibly improved.
Lin Guixiang continued, “Ma’am, just hang on a bit longer, I’m going to call 120 for you.”
“No, no need,” Grandma Lu, who had initially lacked the strength to move, now managed to grasp Lin Guixiang’s wrist, “I, I… I feel much better now.”
Seeing the elderly lady’s consciousness gradually becoming clearer and her condition improving, Lin Guixiang also breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been very scared just now.
What if something had happened to the old lady? How could she have explained it?
But she didn’t regret it.
Lin Guixiang continued, “Do you need to go to the hospital?”
Grandma Lu shook her head, smiling and saying, “No need, I have hypoglycemia. When I have an attack, I must eat a piece of sugar to relieve it. Sometimes I pass out before I even have the chance to unwrap the candy. My girl, I was lucky to have you today, really, thank you so much!”
Although hypoglycemia isn’t a serious illness, it could be life-threatening if everyone ignored her.
There were many who saw her faint, and plenty who surrounded her to watch, but no one was willing to lend a hand.
Only Lin Guixiang was different.
Despite advice to the contrary from others, Lin Guixiang still chose to help her.
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang was surprised.
There’s such a disease?
Eating sugar can cure it?
Even Ma Xiaolan, who was watching the commotion from the side, was stunned.
This old woman wasn’t trying to scam anyone!
How disappointing.
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang smiled and said, “Auntie, I’m glad you’re okay. Let me help you to the shop to sit down for a while. Drink a glass of water and rest.”
“Alright,” Grandma Lu nodded.
Lin Guixiang helped Grandma Lu up and walked her to the store. As she looked at Lin Guixiang’s profile, Grandma Lu was taken aback.
Why did she feel that this young woman seemed oddly familiar?
Could she have been mistaken?
The air conditioning was on in the store, and as soon as they stepped in, they were greeted by a cool breeze.
Lin Guixiang poured Grandma Lu a glass of water, “Here, have some water.”
“Thank you,” Grandma Lu said, accepting the glass with both hands.
“Is the owner here?” Just then, a few customers entered the store.
Lin Guixiang immediately went over to greet them, “Hello.”
They were four girls, “Hello, we would like three sets of Lotus Dew and one set of Immortal Phoenix.”
They were all students from a nearby university.
Someone in their class had used Beauty Chant, saying it was not only effective but also affordably priced, so they had come straight over.
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang said with an apologetic face, “I’m sorry, but there are only two sets of Lotus Dew left. We still have a few sets of Immortal Phoenix.”
The business had been very good these past few days; they were able to sell over thirty sets of Lotus Dew every day, and along with the samples and such, the skincare products produced in the sterile room weren’t enough to meet the demand.
Fortunately, Lin Wu was already preparing the full-automatic machines. Once Lin Guixiang learned the blending ratios, they wouldn’t have to worry about running out of products to sell.
The four of them exchanged glances, and one of the girls with short hair asked, “When will you have more Lotus Dew in stock?”
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.
“Tomorrow morning,” Lin Guixiang continued, “I can give you some samples to try out the effect first.”
The girls nodded, “Okay, then we’ll come back tomorrow morning.”
Lin Guixiang handed them the samples.
Just as the girls were leaving, Grandma Lu looked at Lin Guixiang and asked, “Young lady, I’ve recently got a few red spots on my face. Are your acne skincare products really effective?”
“They are effective,” Lin Guixiang nodded slightly, casually picking up a sample of Lotus Dew and handing it to Grandma Lu, “This is called Lotus Dew, and it’s specifically for acne. The full-sized products are sold out at the moment, but you can take a sample home to try.”
Grandma Lu reached out to take it and then asked, “What about for age spots?”
It’s inevitable to get age spots as one gets older.
Grandma Lu was no exception.
Not only Grandma Lu, even her daughter-in-law Bai Lu had some spots on her face.
“For age spots, you can use Immortal Phoenix,” Lin Guixiang continued, “Let me get you some samples of Immortal Phoenix.”
Grandma Lu watched Lin Guixiang with a smile, “My dear, don’t bother with samples. I trust you; just get me the full-sized product.”
