Chapter 150: Let's Have a Box of Jiawei Xiaoyao Pills

At the Xiaomajia Island pier, the red sun was rising slowly from the calm sea horizon. A few white clouds floated in the sky, and the golden sunlight shimmered on the sea like silver scales.

Sweatshirt Grandpa carried a ginseng and goji berry drink, yawning as he walked towards the pier.

"Cleaning up the beach really makes it look nice!"

"Huh? So early?!"

"Who is that?"

"Why do they look familiar?"

Sweatshirt Grandpa looked ahead in confusion. He saw a person approaching, also holding a teacup and fanning themselves with a palm-leaf fan.

Sweatshirt Grandpa quickened his pace to get a better look at the person. What he saw startled him.

Good grief... isn't that me?!

Sweatshirt Grandpa was so scared his hair stood on end. Early in the morning, the entire beach was empty except for him. The nearest people were on the boats at the pier. If he really encountered a ghost, there would be no one to call for help!

Sweatshirt Grandpa muttered nervously as he walked. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks. Huh? Why is the person's reflection still distorted?

Upon closer inspection, he realized, Who's the unlucky kid who put a curved mirror here to scare people?!

He immediately cursed out loud. Wait a minute, this doesn't seem like a mirror.

Sweatshirt Grandpa walked closer and saw a small door beside the reflection. "What is this?" he wondered. Curious, he stepped inside and saw a room equipped with a heated toilet, toilet paper, sanitizer, and a sink. There were even small baskets of fragrant purple flowers on the walls, and soft, pleasant music played in the background, making it feel cozy and clean.

"When was a toilet built here?!" Sweatshirt Grandpa was stunned. He quickly walked out and circled the toilet, discovering that in addition to men's and women's restrooms, there was also an accessible restroom, thoughtfully designed.

Nearby, there was a mirrored trash can that blended perfectly with its surroundings.

"Who did this good deed?!" Sweatshirt Grandpa was excited. The other amenities were fine, but this public restroom was a major solution! There were few public restrooms on the beach. When nature called, men could easily find a tree to relieve themselves, but it was always inconvenient for women, and handling it behind the bushes wasn't ideal either.

While Grandpa wondered who built this, he noticed a few words on the toilet wall: "Lang Ai Hotel?? Was this done by the Dog Boss?!" Sweatshirt Grandpa was shocked!

Soon, more island residents noticed the trash cans and public toilets on the beach. While they were happy, they were also puzzled by the words "Lang Ai Hotel."

Why would the Dog Boss, who should be focusing on his hotel, think of building toilets and trash cans for the island? What's in it for him?! Is there some hidden agenda or conspiracy?

For a while, the island residents were deep in thought and confusion.

...

Late at night, in the kitchen of Lang Ai Hotel.

"Jonige, I'm off. See you tomorrow."

"Goodbye."

As the kitchen cleaning staff closed the door and left, the once bustling kitchen finally fell silent.

Xu Bo stood alone in the kitchen, looking around the empty space. He lowered his head and wiped the kitchen table.

It was very clean. Xu Bo had an obsession with cleanliness in the kitchen. According to the rules, the kitchen had to be thoroughly cleaned three times before anyone could leave each night. Thus, the back kitchen of Lang Ai Hotel was always spotless.

"Squeak..."

The kitchen door opened, and footsteps approached.

"Why are you back? Did you forget something?" Xu Bo asked without looking up.

There was no reply, but the footsteps grew closer. Xu Bo turned around and, seeing who it was, finally relaxed.

"Why are you here so late?"

"I couldn't sleep. Saw the kitchen light was on and thought I'd check in."

Chen Jianhai shuffled in wearing flip-flops, carrying a plastic bag.

"I heard you made a girl cry today?"

Xu Bo raised an eyebrow. "Someone complained to you?"

Chen Jianhai replied, "No one complained. Everyone in the restaurant is talking about it. I heard it while eating."

Xu Bo gave him a look that said, "Do you think I believe you?"

Chen Jianhai didn't bother explaining and handed the plastic bag to Xu Bo. "Here, I bought this for you."

"What's this?" Xu Bo curiously took the bag and found two small medicine boxes inside. He opened one and saw: "Jiawei Xiaoyao Pills?!"

"Take two packs at a time to relieve liver fire."

Chen Jianhai had a "you're welcome" expression. "I know you've been busy and irritable lately, so I went to the pharmacy to get this for you. The pharmacist said it's good for relieving stress and lifting your mood."

"Get lost!"

Xu Bo's temper flared up instantly. He threw the medicine on the ground and pointed at Chen Jianhai's nose, yelling, "You bought me this... are you crazy?!"

"This is something my mom takes, it's for women!! If you're sick, go find Xiao Langfeng. I don't have time for you! If you're bored, go find something useful to do! I don't have time to play with you!"

His roar echoed through the kitchen and down the hallway. In the corridor, two night-shift employees patrolling the building heard the yelling. Their gossip instincts were ignited as they quietly snuck to the kitchen door and peered through the crack. 

The next moment, they exchanged looks of shock. Jonige must be insane... he even dared to scold the boss! What shocked them more was Chen Jianhai standing quietly, taking the scolding. If it were any other employee, they wouldn't even get the chance to flap their wings before being kicked out by Chen Jianhai.

"This is dangerous; we better stay out of it," they both thought and retreated.

...

No one knew how long the scolding lasted. Xu Bo only stopped when he felt light-headed from lack of oxygen. His forehead was visibly throbbing with a vein near his temple.

Perhaps venting all his pent-up anger, Xu Bo let out a long breath. His expression changed from fury to confusion and finally to guilt as he looked at Chen Jianhai.

"I'm sorry..."

Xu Bo leaned against the shiny kitchen table, his legs giving out as he sat on a stool.

**Jiawei Xiaoyao Pills are actually great for both men and women. They relieve stress and lift your mood. If you're dealing with frustrating people at work, this is a good option. It can make even the most annoying folks seem pleasant.**
