Chapter 498: 488 Trouble in paradise

Chapter 488 Trouble in paradise　　  Lin Chen had no idea that he was being schemed against at, he spent his days as leisurely as possible and because it was summer he was even more lazy. He often his days staying at home and teasing Su Wan and even if Su Wan sent him to the town, he would finish off his work rather quickly and return home. He wasn't being lazy, but he wasn't paying as much attention to his workers as he should, to Lin Chen, everyone except his family was nothing but passing strangers, he wouldn't pay unnecessary attention to them until it was extremely important for him. 
Because he was like this the workers at the shop were not that close to him, at the beginning, they indeed had feelings of gratitude towards Lin Chen and Su Wan but emotions sometimes fade away especially when they aren't nurtured. Lin Chen kept the workers at bay and hardly ever talked with them, which caused a rift between them and this rift was exactly what came in handy for Xing Bengt to take advantage of the situation.
" Ah Chen, how are things going on in the shop?" carrying little meow in her arms, Su Wan walked towards Lin Chen who was putting on his shoes to leave the house as usual. He was dressed in a flowing green robe with an ombré touch of white, looking as dashing as a young lord. 
" Everything's fine," said Lin Chen with a smile, he didn't want Su Wan to worry about what was happening at the shop, even he didn't know how things escalated to this point for months everything was going well and good and then all a sudden, trouble keeps popping out one after another. Lin Chen was losing his mind solving this ruckus that always started the second he stepped into the shop, he had questioned the workers and done everything in his power to check up on what was going on but he couldn't find a thing, or it was more like he couldn't get the time to deal with the entire thing at all because he was busy dousing the fire that kept popping up throughout the entire time.
Su Wan stared at him with her lips pursed, she wasn't someone who would doubt her husband without any rhyme or reason but Lin Chen was acting weird for the past week. Before this, he would return back home without so much as spending a single second in the town but nowadays he was returning home as late as midnight, he was coming so late and leaving so early in the morning that Su Wan could actually count the number of times she has seen him at home during this week on one hand, and if that wasn't enough to question him for his weird behaviour that slumped up back of his coupled with those huge eye bags under his eyes was enough for Su Wan to doubt that something was up with Lin Chen.
Throughout the week she had been waiting for him to come and tell her just what was wrong with him but then he never did that, he seemed to be pretty much inclined to deal with whatever he was going through on his own. Su Wan would have let him do that if only he didn't look like he was going to snap any second, he was that tense.
" Alright, if you say so" she knew that he wouldn't tell her what was going on with him exactly so she didn't pursue the matter, she pecked Lin Chen on his cheek before wishing him a good day then turned around to leave.

Lin Chen watched Su Wan leave and felt rather guilty in his heart, he knew he should tell Su Wan that there was some trouble with the shop he was managing but he was ashamed to admit that, he has always acted so confident and secure in front of her and he even promised that he will take good care of that shop. Now his shop was the first one to run into trouble while his brothers' shops were flourishing day by day. 
He was embarrassed to admit that he failed to manage such a small thing when Su Wan trusted him with it. 
" I am sorry Wan Wan." He sighed before he turned around to leave, as he walked out of the house, he didn't notice that Su Wan who actually went back into her room suddenly popped out and followed after him. She walked to the carriage driver who usually drove the carriage for her uncles and asked him to silently follow after Lin Chen.
The Lin brothers had their pride they have already taken enough advantage of Su Wan when she gave them her shop to manage so instead of taking the carriages that Shen Junxi and Shen Zizhen brought with them, they still travelled by ox cart. Lin Chen who arrived at the village entrance where Brother Lu's ox-cart would always stop, sighed, he and the others were saving to buy their own carriage but - he shook his head, with the trouble at the shop, he was afraid that he won't be able to manage to save enough for a carriage.
" Brother Luo, here is my fare" Lin Chen handed Brother Luo seven copper coins. 
Brother Luo took the money and nodded as he looked at Lin Chen. " You seemed to be working rather hard Chen, is the shop too busy for you to manage alone?"
Lin Chen smiled awkwardly and didn't answer, he simply sat down on the cart and nodded somewhat dishearteningly. Brother Luo noticed his pitiful condition and didn't continue to question him any more. He placed the money in the pouch on his waist and whipped his sturdy bull's behind, once the ox cart was off to town, Su Wan who was trailing behind Lin Chen in the carriage also followed suit, today she will be definitely found out was happening with Lin Chen and the reason behind his restless appearance.
