The CEO's Substitute Wife Is A Genius-Chapter 393: The potion has reached Hu Xianyun!

Jiang Yueping hurriedly rushed to the first floor, but the servants had already cleaned up the dining room.

"Where are those wine glasses?" He grabbed a servant and demanded.

The servant was a bit startled and pointed towards the kitchen direction: "Taken to be washed."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yueping ran to the kitchen, furious.

The glasses had already been placed in the dishwashing sink, with a servant adding detergent to it.

"The wine in my glass wasn’t finished yet, and you washed it? Do you servants ever consider me at all?"

Jiang Yueping seized the opportunity to vent his anger.

Jiang Man’s glass had already been soaked in water, making it impossible to retrieve any saliva.

Such a great opportunity wasted just like that!

The servant felt wronged too.

The dishes and glasses from the dining room had to be washed immediately after meals.

They were doing the right thing, yet being scolded by Jiang Yueping as if they had done something wrong.

Since they were only servants, they couldn’t talk back; they could only swallow their grievances.

"What’s the matter?" Hu Fangqin came back and heard the noisy argument coming from the kitchen.

This was her older brother’s home after all, and they were just guests; scolding the servants here didn’t seem quite proper.

Hu Fangqin walked in, and Jiang Yueping poured out all his frustrations: "Your brother made his own wine, and we’ve been here for days without a taste. When Jiang Man arrived, oh great, they brought it out, and still didn’t call me and Rourou. I and Rourou had to cheekily ask for a glass of wine to drink, and now these wonderful servants, I hadn’t finished my drink, and they poured it out and washed the glasses!"

Upon hearing her husband’s complaints, Hu Fangqin could only feel helpless.

She was no longer the miss of the Hu family, what right did she have to be imperious here?

"I saw you going upstairs and after waiting for several minutes without seeing you come down, I thought you didn’t want the drink, that’s why I washed the glasses..."

The servant explained in a low voice, as if they had done something wrong.

"Let me pour you another glass? Please calm down." She said respectfully and politely.

But this wasn’t really about the wine, it was about the glass, Jiang Yueping was just making an issue out of it.

"Forget it! Am I a beggar? Haven’t I drunk wine in this lifetime? So annoying!"

Jiang Yueping snorted and glanced fiercely at Hu Fangqin as he turned and left.

Hu Fangqin felt she was being blamed for no reason.

She had spent the whole day in the hospital with her father; how could she know what had happened at home?

Thinking back to the conversations about her childhood with her father made her quite emotional.

At that time, when she wasn’t doing well in her studies, her father considered sending her abroad.

But she met Jiang Yueping, a poor kid, and foolishly gave up the chance to study abroad for him.

What followed was a mess; she fought with her family as if possessed.

She was blind then, but only now could she see that Jiang Yueping was despicable and unworthy of her.

But she had already lived half of her life; what was the use of regretting now?

Today, a word from her father woke her up; her real blood relatives were the ones she should cherish.

Not just her father and brothers, but also her daughter, Jiang Man.

Anyone with a bit of conscience wouldn’t treat Manman like they did.

They were simply beasts!

Hu Fangqin took a deep breath, composing her emotions before going upstairs.

Jiang Yueping returned to his room and started to get angry. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

These few days staying in the second house, he felt unbearably frustrated.

"Those contemptuous servants, pretending to respect me to my face but surely mocking me behind my back!"

Hu Fangqin didn’t speak, just silently listened to her husband’s ranting.

"They don’t even deign to let us drink the wine they brew, they completely regard us as outsiders!"

Hu Fangqin still didn’t speak, but her mood grew much heavier.

"Have you gone mute?"

Without a response, Jiang Yueping’s gaze fell upon Hu Fangqin.

Only then did Hu Fangqin manage her emotions, "We didn’t get the wine, so what? Won’t you be able to drink more at the wedding banquet?"

"It’s not about the wine at all! I remembered the doctor at the identification center saying that saliva could be used for the test. I was thinking of taking Manman’s used cup to have it tested later, but who knew the servants would be so quick to wash it!"

"It’s washed, so it’s washed. There’ll be other opportunities, right?"

"You’re right, there will be other opportunities at the wedding banquet!" Jiang Yueping huffed, finally in a somewhat better mood.

He grinned at Hu Fangqin, "How did it go with your dad today?"

"Not bad," Hu Fangqin said as she bent her head to take off her clothes, preparing to change and take a bath.

"After all, my dad has been bedridden for so many years, any hatred has long since worn away."

Hearing this, Jiang Yueping immediately came over to rub Hu Fangqin’s shoulders, grinning, "My hard-working wife, you’ve cheered up the old man. Maybe we can get a larger share of the inheritance."

"Mhm." Hu Fangqin didn’t say much, just silently walked towards the bathroom.

For some reason, she suddenly felt that all of this was rather meaningless.

...

On the other side.

Hu Xianyun dropped off the group of three at the hotel.

"I won’t come up then," Hu Xianyun showed no intention of getting out of the car.

Jiang Man unbuckled her seatbelt and, it seemed, thought of something as she fumbled with her bag.

She took her entire bag off, patted it and said, "There’s a ten-month supply of medicine in here, to be given to grandpa regularly each month. I heard from my second aunt that my third aunt almost goes to the hospital daily, so I’ll have to entrust this task to her. I can’t conveniently carry these medicines with me or leave them in the hotel. Could you hand them over to her for safekeeping? It would be best to keep them in a safe."

Hu Xianyun’s usually cold face registered a response.

He glanced at the bag, "Medicine?"

"Health supplements, quite suitable for grandpa’s rehabilitation," Jiang Man patted the bag, repeatedly stressing the importance, "Remember, these medicines are crucial. Don’t lose them."

Losing them meant she’d have to make them again, wasting time and effort.

"Don’t worry, I’ll make sure my mom understands," Hu Xianyun nodded.

"Okay." Jiang Man then felt reassured enough to get out of the car.

She had quite a bit of trust in this brother of hers with the identity of an Antarctic Scientific Researcher.

She wouldn’t feel safe entrusting these medicines to Hu Ming, Hu Hao, or even Hu Qinglin.

"Ugh, so sleepy," Shaye, the last one out, stretched lazily.

Once the three walked into the hotel, Hu Xianyun’s eyes suddenly gleamed.

His long fingers touched the zipper of the cloth bag and gave it a small tug.

With a gentle pull, all the medicine inside was exposed.

He carelessly picked up a vial, his eyes focusing on the encoded number on it.

These codes were security seals, each vial of clinical trial medicine had such a barcode on it.

"Code ADE108."

He muttered the number from the vial while taking out his phone and calling his assistant.

"Come to me now. I need you to look into a medicine vial; I want to know its development date and the developers."

His voice was calm but tinged with a hint of restraint.

There was a voice within him, ready to burst forth, just waiting for the assistant to confirm...
