Tang Yue’s smile froze instantly; she didn’t know how to respond.
"Mom, Xiao Jun he..." Tang Yue was at a loss for words, and eventually changed the topic, saying, "Mom, when are you coming to Jing City?"
Zhang Hualian didn’t think much of it, as Meng Siyu had a wife at home, and whenever he traveled, Tang Yue was always informed clearly. But Tang Jun often went without contact for ten days to half a month, and sometimes even half a year without a word.
Zhang Hualian asked casually, and when Tang Yue awkwardly diverted the topic, she didn’t pursue it further. She said, "Your dad and I have discussed it and will come over in a few days, after your grandmother and aunt have settled in and have no issues with acclimatization."
"Xiao Yang’s wedding is a big event, and we’re coming so late, Xiao Yang he..."
Zhang Hualian was worried Lian Qingyang might be displeased. Tang Yue reassured her, "Mom, rest assured. Everything is ready; Dad and Aunt are holding down the fort in Sea City. Plus, there’s the wedding company. You just relax and think about what to say at the wedding."
After hanging up, Tang Yue started pondering internally. If her parents returned, Xiao Jun’s situation would definitely be discovered.
With the mindset of postponing for as long as possible, Tang Yue focused on her work.
Tang Jun was quite comfortable in the Siheyuan; on weekends, he played with Zaozao and Chenchen—not quite, it was Zaozao and Chenchen pulling Tang Jun along to play with them.
During weekdays, while listening to the radio at home, Tang Jun would work on his company’s development plans or think about what needed to be supplemented.
Tang Yue glanced quietly, unable to resist saying, "Xiao Jun, how come you love medicinal herbs?"
"Medicinal herbs are great; once made into medicine, they can cure diseases and save lives." Tang Jun said earnestly, "Sis, being a doctor sounds too tiring. I’d rather work with medicinal herbs."
With his grades, studying medicine was entirely possible, but Tang Jun believed working with medicinal herbs was better. His herb company will grow, and he plans to earn more and more money.
Tang Yue smirked, saying, "You’re recuperating, don’t overuse your brain."
"Sis, this needs refining; there’s no time to think usually, so now’s just right." Tang Jun disagreed, firmly believing that one day he’ll return to the company, expanding it, allowing his parents not to work, and earning plenty of money.
Except for his impaired vision, Tang Jun diligently exercises, handling company affairs faster and better due to having more time.
Tang Yue often advised Tang Jun not to work so hard, but he said idleness wouldn’t help, only mold would grow.
Even Meng Siyu advised Tang Yue against stopping him, saying keeping Tang Jun occupied would prevent idle thoughts.

Sea City.
Mo Xiaoyu took Yan Wei to the shop early in the morning, detailing the daily tasks, "The main tasks each day are selling clothes and organizing the store’s inventory."
"Sister Xiaoyu, I’ll do my best." Yan Wei cherished this work opportunity, diligently memorizing Mo Xiaoyu’s instructions.
"Do well, and things will just keep getting better."
Mo Xiaoyu encouragingly looked at Yan Wei, noting her earnestness and responsibility. Despite her connection to Zhang Qiang, Mo Xiaoyu hoped Yan Wei would prosper.
