Chapter 107 She married you for the money Part 1
So, eventually, the thing which Su Lin had predicted happened.
Every day morning, the seven brothers drank their body tempering liquid with tears streaming down their faces.
They couldn't stop it even if they wanted to.
Stopping this would mean, the rest of the brothers will improve by leaps and bounds while leaving the coward who couldn't stomach the disgusting fluid far behind in the dust.
So they bit their lips and did the deed every morning!!
The situation in the city also slowly stabilized and the seventh brother, the new mayor, smoothened all the relations both on the political side and the business side of the Hangzhou city.
And most importantly, Luther had finally 'baby-proofed' the entire city to his satisfaction, ensuring Su Lin's safety.
And was his new bride grateful to him for all the effort and late nights he poured into this? Sadly, No.
Sigh...
Luther heaved another long and drawn-out sigh as he saw Squirrel squirreling behind Su Lin. Where ever the master goes, the disciple followed.
Though Luther was fuming in jealously because of all the attention Squirrel received, he just couldn't bring himself to disturb the duo.
Last week, one morning, Su Lin was busily teaching her grafting methods to Squirrel, explaining why some herbs would better suit to be grafted with certain other herbs only.
And Squirrel had immediately suggested a more elaborate method of editing the plant's nature - Gene editing!
This concept had completely blown away Su Lin's mind.
Since then, both Su Lin and Squirrel were busy holed up inside their private laboratory sort of set up.
Luther just silently and patiently admired from a distance, how engrossed and focussed Su Lin was.
This was one thing he liked about her the most.
When she became interested in something, she would give it her all and achieve the goal by insane hard work.
A woman like this had been squashed and squandered by an undeserving family for so long.
"Brother.." Monkey slowly called out to Luther, pulling him back from an apparently pretty sweet daydream.
"Ahem... Ahem... I was just thinking about our missions." Luther quickly adjusted him pose and awkwardly explained.
"Of course", Monkey chuckled and spared him from more embarrassment.
"Brother, I am pretty sure you haven't noticed this yet. But can we just set up an office space or a lab or an industry for sister-in-law, before she turns this entire house into her factory?" Monkey explained.
"Oh! That sounds like a good idea. I have been racking my brain for possible gifts!! You should have told me sooner Monkey!!" Luther smiled and immediately agreed.
Bro!! That's not why I brought it up!!
Monkey awkwardly chuckled and handed over some documents for Luther to see.
"This site actually is coming to auction next week. It is on the outskirts of Hangzhou city, and the company had gone bankrupt, completely falling into the hands of the City Bank." Monkey explained the details of the auction.
Luther went over all the documents and saw that this was a very reasonable and accommodative space, and should satisfactorily suit Su Lin at least for the first branch.
He read over it again and again for a few times and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Why does this feel too good? Just a bit too perfect?
He then meaningfully looked at Monkey, who was still grinning broadly, "Are you sure this company went bankrupt? or did you guys meddle with the stock market and drove it to bankruptcy?"
Monkey immediately stiffened like a guilty cat, and awkwardly scratched his head.
Hehe...
Luther chuckled and didn't really reprimand him. It was for his precious wifey after all! How could he get angry!!
He needed every small help he could get to capture this special woman's heart.
Maybe some other women with more integrity and moral compass couldn't be won over by simply throwing money at them, but something told him his wifey was just a tad bit different.
In fact, she would only be more and more pleased with lots and lots of pampering...
Heh... Who knew he would fall in love with this peculiar certain someone. The heart wants what it wants!
"When is the auction?", Luther chuckled and asked, already anticipating how Su Lin was going to thank him in return.
"Monday Bro," Monkey nodded happily.
His plan had been executed smoothly and successfully. Finally, there will be some peace and quiet at home and not the constant bickering between Su Lin, Squirrel, and Luther.
Now only the auction was left.
