Chapter 27: Reason

“Uncle Liang, Aunt Hong, I’m fine. Thank you for your concern. The reason why I decided to resign, besides not liking the company’s atmosphere, is that I want to do things on my own.”

“No matter how good the company is, it is still based on people’s faces, so I want to try to start my own business. I have this idea because I found a tattered notebook when I was sorting out old things at home some time ago.”

“It’s full of prescriptions related to beauty and skincare. Although much of the handwriting has faded, I can still make a new prescription after careful study. You also know that I majored in pharmacy in college.”

“It just so happens that I have figured out a skincare prescription these two days. I plan to hang a sign at home and open a handicraft workshop to specialize in making some beauty and skin care products. It should be no problem to support myself, and it will be more comfortable this way.”

This was the rhetoric that An Yan thought of to the outside world. It was okay for people who were not familiar with her, and she didn’t need to explain it, but for those who were very familiar with her, they were not so easy to fool.

For example, her classmates in high school and college, her colleagues, and her neighbors in Furong Alley all knew her family situation and personal conditions.

Secondly, everyone also knew her personality to some extent. They knew that she had completed her studies by working part-time and studying part-time over the years, and she lived a very frugal life.

In everyone’s eyes, people like her should work hard to find a stable job. Not to mention others, even she thought so before.

After all, how can a person who can’t even afford food and clothing have the confidence and resources to start a business?

And she was a fresh graduate of pharmacy and didn’t have much practical experience. How can she suddenly make beauty products?

Everything in this world has a reason. If she hides it, it would likely arouse more suspicion. Better reveal the reason herself.

Sure enough, after hearing An Yan’s words, the Liang Family believed it without any doubt.

Liang Jianwen nodded repeatedly: “That’s right, three generations of your An Family have worked in pharmaceutical factories. Your father was a drug inspector back then. Your family has a long history of pharmaceuticals.”

“It’s better this way. Instead of working for others, it’s better to be your boss, even if you’re a small boss. It’s more comfortable than working in a company. Anyway, Xiao An studied this major in college, so it’s not a waste of knowledge.”

Li Hongxia was a little worried at first, but after listening to An Yan’s clear and logical words, she must have made this decision after careful consideration.

What’s more, An Yan was alone and had no burden. She can feed and make herself full. Even if she doesn’t go to work in the company, she can support herself by doing anything.

Liang Min touched An Yan’s arm with her elbow and praised her: “Sister, you are amazing. You were just tinkering with herbs before, but now you can develop beauty products yourself. You should be amazed by your appearance.”

“I didn’t expect that my family still had a collection of beauty recipes. It’s also luck.” An Yan smiled and replied.

Liang Jianwen recalled: “I remember that your father has always liked reading books, and your grandfather is also like that. When he is free, he will go to the scrapyard to find some old books.”

Li Hongxia glared at the man, secretly disliked his inability to speak, and then talked about her guess.

“Maybe it’s the secret recipe passed down by the An family. I heard from Grandpa An that their ancestors were doctors. Maybe it was left by their ancestors, but Grandpa An and the An brothers don’t have this talent, so the formula has not been figured out.”
