Lu Jiao glared at him and ordered in a low voice, "Quiet down!"

She hasn\'t told Xie Yunjin about the businesses she was starting with Zhao Lingfeng. Before she purposely hid it from him and now, she didn\'t think it was necessary for him to know.

"I\'m working with Baohe Tang\'s owner to open a pharmacy. I will be using some of my own secret formulas and need someone to do the legwork. Second brother can be the manager and second in command for my businesses. He\'ll be responsible for anything related to my secret formulas."

Lu Gui was thrilled, "Sister, you are opening your own businesses with owner Zhao?! That\'s amazing. I cannot believe the second brother is going to a manager. That sounds impressive."

Right after he made that comment, Lu Gui shook his head, "No, he\'s not as impressive as me. I am an even bigger manager than him."

Lu Jiao stared speechlessly. Just what was he focused on?

"Early tomorrow morning, you can go pick Lu An up. The second sister-in-law and Taozi can stay home for now since the pharmacy hasn\'t been built yet. Once everything is done, I can find his family a place nearby. Our sister-in-law can also help me out with the business. That way, they\'ll make a lot of money."

Lu Jiao suddenly remembered that Lu Gui was getting rather old and she asked, "Lu Gui, you don\'t have a wife yet. When you go home tomorrow, ask mom to find you a wife. Don\'t worry, I have the money. No matter how much money the girl might want, I will pay."

Lu Gui\'s face turned bright red and he lowered his head, "Sister, I\'m not in a rush."

Lu Jiao saw how embarrassed he was and didn\'t know what to say. He was a man yet he acted so timidly.

"Okay, go to sleep early. We can talk more once Lu An gets here."

Lu Gui nodded and got up. Before he left, he remembered Xie Yunjin and asked, "Sister, does the brother-in-law know about this?"

Lu Jiao shook her head, "He doesn\'t know."

Lu Gui was in shock, "Sister, how can you make any decisions without telling the brother-in-law? He\'s going to be angry for sure. You should tell him. You know he doesn\'t like that owner Zhao. He might not like it that you\'re partnering up with him."

Lu Jiao glared at him. Why was he being so loud? With his loud words, Xie Yunjin might have found out just now.

Lu Jiao brandished her arm impatiently, "Just go!"

Lu Gui left then. Once he reached the door, he noticed Xie Yunjin there. It appeared that he heard everything the siblings had chatted about.

Thunderstruck, Lu Gui stuttered, "B… Brother-in-law, my sister isn\'t intentionally hiding things from you. She just hasn\'t had the chance to tell you. Don\'t be mad at her. She… She…"

Lu Jiao naturally noticed Xie Yunjin by now. She wasn\'t scared that Xie Yunjin would be mad. After all, given the nature of their relationship, it was normal for her not to tell him.

Lu Gui\'s scaredy-cat mannerisms angered her.

"Lu Gui, go to your room right now and go to sleep!"

Lu Gui wanted to run away. Before doing so, however, he added, "Brother-in-law, my sister did something wrong. Don\'t hit her! Men who hit women are not good men."

Lu Jiao was really mad now. He had stirred up trouble for her and was continuing to do so.

"Lu Gui, I might just beat you up!"

Lu Gui ran away then. His sister was strong and he didn\'t want to get hit by her.

Inside the living room, Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin stared silently at each other. It was like they were competing in an endurance contest.

Xie Yunjin was honestly angry at the fact that Lu Jiao hides everything from her. That didn\'t make him happy.

But he was aware that they were technically separated, and he had no right to know everything about her. Still, his heart filled with irritation.

He stood there for a while and waited for himself to calm down. Then, he looked up at Lu Jiao.

"You\'re partnering up with Zhao Lingfeng to open a pharmacy?"

Lu Jiao was surprised that he wasn\'t mad. She figured he must be angry, but he wasn\'t.

"That\'s right."

Lu Jiao didn\'t want to hide this from him anymore. Since he already knew, she might as well tell him. No matter what, it wasn\'t his business.

Lu Jiao explained, "I\'m going to open three manufacturers with him. An oil mill, a cosmeceutical business, and a pharmacy. We are in the process of starting construction. Nothing has started officially."

Xie Yunjin\'s heart settled down a little. He paced into the room and sat down by Lu Jiao.

"Before, Zhao Lingfeng gave you 1/3 stake of Baohe Tang because of your partnership?"

He thought it was because Lu Jiao was a good doctor.

If it was purely because of their upcoming ventures, then Lu Jiao was being underpaid.

Lu Jiao nodded, "Something like that."

It was because of her medical skills and also because of their ventures.

Xie Yunjin then asked, "Lu Jiao, going forward, can you please share things with me, instead of hiding things from me?"

Before Lu Jiao could answer, he added, "I don\'t want to interfere. I simply want to make sure you aren\'t being taken advantage of.

I may not know as much as you, but two heads together are better than one. I\'m scared you\'ll get the short end of the stick."

Given Lu Jiao\'s silence, Xie Yunjin continued, "You are not willing to accept me and you are not willing to stay. However, you did cure my legs and I am indebted to you. I don\'t want to see you get conned and I don\'t want to see you get hurt.

Even after we separate, I will help you if you ever need it. As long as I am capable, I will do whatever I can to help you."

Xie Yunjin\'s speech left Lu Jiao feeling sour. She wasn\'t sure why she felt so emotional. Perhaps it was due to Xie Yunjin\'s sincerity and his intention to help her.

She was also confident that Xie Yunjin was no longer trying to make her stay. He had accepted the fact that they were going to separate.

From the sound of it, even after their separation, he was willing to help her if needed.

That was the equivalent of getting an ace card for her. This man was going to be the first assistant. If she ever needed help, he was willing to step up?

That thought excited Lu Jiao and her gaze warmed up.

Xie Yunjin was no longer narcissistic enough to think her warmth was a sign of affection. She was likely happy to hear that he had accepted their separation.

Xie Yunjin\'s heart ached and he did his best to not show it. Only when Lu Jiao opens up her heart will he be able to fight his way in.
