During this period, Lin Tian had been living quite comfortably.
His daily routine involved treating Liou Zhengming for hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia.
The treatnt thods were simple, waking up at five every morning, washing up, and heading to the courtyard.
In the icy snow, he'd first practice a session of the Five Animals Qigong, then run a lap around the villa community, and finally take a slow walk back ho, shower, have a bowl of millet porridge, and drive to work.
On the first day, Liou Zhengming naturally couldn't handle this kind of training, constantly complaining and not completing even half the routine.
On the second day, Liou Qingcheng and Yan Xinrou joined in, and by the third day, Zhang Nianping and Lin Hao got up early as well. Six mbers of the family braved the cold, shivering as they practiced the Five Animals Qigong.
According to Lin Tian's requirents, every three days, they had to remove one piece of clothing, until eventually everyone was wearing just a thick coat to keep warm as they practiced in the snowy courtyard, shivering from the cold.
Once their bodies were warm, they'd feel increasingly energetic and then go for a lap outside, and by the ti they returned, they would bathe, have breakfast, and Lin Tian would teach them massage techniques.
After exercising, taking a hot shower, eating sothing, and having a massage session—that feeling was sothing even the exercise-averse Liou Zhengming grew to love.
Recent checks showed that his blood pressure and lipid levels had dropped, almost making Liou overjoyed.
Actually, the happiest were Lin Hao's parents, seeing their son beco so accomplished, feeling all the hardships were worth it!
Thinking back, it doesn't seem impossible for Lin Tian's words from a few days ago, about living twenty more years, to co true.
...
In recent days, Bai Shishi personally contacted every renowned psychologist in Kanyue City, inviting no fewer than ten.
But Bai Tianlong drove them all away, as stubborn as ever, shouting 'I'm not sick! I'm not sick!' Yet, after the doctors left, he would sit and stare out the window by himself.
Seeing him like this brought Bai Shishi to tears every day; if it weren't for Lin Tian's frequent company, she would have broken down.
Perhaps sensing his daughter's worry, Bai Tianlong finally started cooperating with the doctors, but without any improvent, becoming even more lancholic.
When Lin Tian used to visit, Bai would at least say a few words; now he wouldn't even glance at him.
Life isn't just about the struggles before you; it's also about the struggles ahead.
No matter how much life fails, you must keep going; when you hit rock bottom, there's always a turning point upward.
The only consolation for Bai Shishi now might be that Qiansii has officially resud operations.
A month has passed, the restructuring of Qiansii is complete, and this ti there's been a thorough 'reshuffling' of employees. Many long-ti employees have changed positions, and many hazardous jobs have been replaced by AI.
Additionally, the Celestial Do Hemostatic Ointnt has officially entered production.
Qiansii extravagantly purchased a factory on the outskirts of Kanyue City, with over four hundred production rooms, and except for highly confidential processing steps, almost all products are centralized there.
The staff quality is quite good; after all, Lin Tian's involvent, coupled with various Qiansii perks and low work pressure, attracted nurous job applicants.
In just a few days, they filled all positions, with so people even trying to get in through connections.
And since the New Year was approaching, the triple overti pay during the five-day Spring Festival kept a large number of employees there.
Why co to Kanyue City? To make money! Many people were eagerly waiting for this ti to earn double wages.
Longer-term employees of Qiansii also received substantial annual bonuses, which made others envious.
Qiansii wasn't as famous before, nor did it have as many employees, so naturally, not many received year-end bonuses, but the money was ample! That's what everyone strives for!
Finally, amid the bustle, the Spring Festival arrived.
The Lin Family prepared a lot of New Year goods, and Zhang Nianping taught Liou Qingcheng how to make various candies and pastries.
According to their usual tradition, the Lin Family would start preparing the New Year's Eve feast in the morning, with all sorts of ats that needed to be slow-cooked from morning until night.
This year, Liou Qingcheng suggested, "Why don't we eat out today? It's the New Year; let's not have Lin Tian cook, okay?"
"Hahaha, this little girl's heart aches for her husband." Yan Xinrou teased.
"Hahaha…" Everyone laughed.
Recently, the kitchen was almost exclusively Lin Tian's, with Zhang Nianping, Yan Xinrou, and Liou Qingcheng assisting and discreetly learning from him.
"Alright, let's go to a restaurant today. I'll go make a reservation later," Yan Xinrou agreed with a smile.
Liou Qingcheng smiled and said, "I have a few friends who spend the New Year alone, and I'd like to invite them over, is that okay?"
"Of course," Yan Xinrou nodded, "The more, the rrier. Are you inviting your classmates?"
Liou Qingcheng shook her head. Smiling, she said, "You know them too—Shishi and Ru Yan."
"..."
The once cheerful atmosphere suddenly vanished as if the surroundings turned into an ice cave.
The smiles on everyone's faces disappeared, and if there were any, they were stiff.
Lin Tian never expected Liou Qingcheng to want to invite them. This…
Lin Tian suddenly felt a headache coming on; what was supposed to be a joyous Spring Festival suddenly beca so awkward?
Yan Xinrou didn't expect her daughter to want to invite these two. Didn't she know about Lin Tian's ambiguous relationship with them? Even casually witnessing it, the incidents were countless!
Not to ntion the recent days at the hospital. Yan Xinrou knew one of the scents on Lin Tian was Bai Shishi's. She initially wanted to give Lin Tian a hard ti, but never expected her daughter to co to his defense!
Is there anything crazier in this world?
If Liou Zhengming had several close female friends outside, this household would have been in an uproar long ago.
But this daughter… why is she so unlike ?
Lin Hao and Zhang Nianping's smiles froze. They exchanged a glance, their hearts racing.
This was too unbelievably thrilling!
Two daughters-in-law sitting down for a al together, and the relationship couldn't be clarified—wasn't this like dancing on a knife edge?
Zhang Nianping, stamring and wanting to say sothing, found herself at a loss. Surely, preventing it would be too strange.
Among those present, only Liou Zhengming was oblivious. Sensing the change in atmosphere, he cast a bewildered gaze at Yan Xinrou, hoping for so cue from her eyes.
But Yan Xinrou ignored Liou Zhengming. Facing situations like this, Liou Zhengming imdiately maintained a composed deanor, pretending nothing happened, knowing that speaking carelessly would only cause trouble.
