Chapter 15 (1/2)

Chapter 15 Tall Man’s Trouble“Grandpa, please let me go. It really disappeared and I can’t find it…” The tall guy, Mu Tiannan, new Agency Business Executive (ABE) of Yifeng Seed Company, is bowing and sc.r.a.ping to the phone, as if the person on the other side of the phone can see his expression.

He is calling in the shop. That plump sales lady who lost the ginseng seed sees his bowing look and feels more anxious.

Alas, Manager Mu is really a good person. He takes responsibility for an employee like her. That plump sales lady admires Mu Tiannan in her heart while worrying that the company might punish her for her fault. Just like Mistress Xianglin, she is talking in her mind again and again, “Manager Mu is good looking with a beautiful heart. He is really a great person…”

Mu Tiannan, who doesn’t know that he has been regarded as a good person, has no time to care about the sales lady’s thought. He is so troubled by the “old man” on the other side of the phone.

“We really lost it. I can’t hand it over even if you kill me!” Mu Tiannan loses his temper after thinking that his “term of penalty” might increase by several years because of this.

“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d. How dare you ignore me! I am going to ask your father to break your legs!” A loud growl from the other side of the phone makes Mu’s ear buzz. Shrinking his head, Mu Tiannan really wants to throw his phone. But when he thinks of his father’s bad temper, his bravery suddenly disappears.

What a joke! If his grandfather has a fiery temper, then his father’s temper can be described as violent. It is exactly this violent emperor, who dragged him back home from New York, the hometown of happiness, and sent him to the inland city, R City. My blonds, I miss you so much!

Mu Tiannan cries out loud in his heart, but is flattery apparently, “Grandpa, please give me more time. I can once again find the ginseng seeds, since I have already found them once. Please trust me and say some good words for me in front of my father. Thank you.”

“Alas…” a sigh comes from the other side of the phone. “Stop flattering me. That is hundreds-year-old ginseng. Even though we send all our people to look for it in the deep mountain, how can we be as lucky as we were last time and once again find one with seeds?”

Mu Tiannan can hear the regret in his Grandfather’s voice. He blames himself for his carelessness and says solemnly, “Can we just use that wild ginseng? Its medical effect is stronger than the seeds by rights…” He doesn’t know whether this is confidential, so he just lowers his voice and goes back to his office on the second floor.

“Everything has its immortal energy. The immortal energy of ginseng can be accepted by most people, but it is too strong for your Grandpa Guo… You should know that a weak body cannot be mended too much. His meridians are too weak to accept the strong effect anymore.” Speaking of this, the voice on the other side of the phone sounds a little regretful.

Grandpa Guo, that strong person, who once let Mu Tiannan sit on his shoulders, laughed loudly and took big bites while eating meat, has reached the degree that his meridians can’t even bear the effect of five-hundred-year-old ginseng? Mu Tiannan says to himself. What else can he do for the older generation?

And his own grandfather, that almighty guy in his memory, will soon face the same situation as Grandpa Guo does?

Mu Tiannan can’t even promise anything and the two of them keep silent. The whole atmosphere is repressive. Finally it is the other side who hangs up the phone first.

“Toot…” Hearing the busy tone coming from the phone, Mu Tiannan’s usual foppery disappears on his face at this time.

He beats the desk with his long fingers. Then, he takes out an ordinary A4 paper, sharpens a pencil after thinking for a while, and starts to draw something.

With several simple lines, the shape of a profile comes out. And after painting for a while, the long hair also has its basic shape. Nose, lips, ears… Mu Tiannan draws it quite smoothly depending on his memory. Only when it comes to the eyes, Mu Tiannan feels it a little difficult.

With some extra modification, Mu Tiannan picks up the phone on the desk and calls Xiao Yuan to come up.

Xiao Yuan is that plump sales lady. She has round cheeks, which turn out to be very cute.
