When we entered Gaohe, it was rush hour.
People who have already worked a day drive their cars at a snail's pace in the heavy traffic.
The mighty and domineering one can only wait obediently at this time.
"When you buy a car in the future, remember to avoid rush hours." John Woo was probably used to this level of traffic jams, so he didn't seem anxious at all and was able to give Lin Fan advice leisurely.
Lin Fan sat firmly in his safety seat, looking at the endless stream of cars, wondering if he should really buy a car...
The subway is actually pretty good. Although there are a lot of people, at least it’s not congested.
"The office is not open yet today. Do you want to go back to the office or stay at my house for a while?" John Woo asked as he gently stepped on the accelerator.
"Going to your house? That's too much trouble, right?" Lin Fan felt embarrassed to always stay in someone else's house.
It's true that she and John Woo have known each other for a long time, but the time they really met was just a few days after she entered the Special Affairs Bureau. He went to 800 to see her twice, and also went to pick her up around the New Year.
Although I feel familiar with it in my heart, in fact, I am not really that familiar with it.
Going to his hometown before was also a helpless move because he didn't want to delay his family reunion. In fact, Lin Fan was not a troublemaker.
"Okay, then let's go back to the institute directly." John Woo said with a smile.
His office doesn't have a separate lounge.
If Lin Fan wanted to go back, it meant that he would have to visit his old friend nearby, and he couldn't find a place to rest in the living area, so he had to continue sleeping on the sofa.
In fact, it would be more convenient for him to go home with John Woo. At least we each have our own room and both can sleep in the bed.
However, since Lin Fan had made his decision, he had no intention of imposing his ideas on others.
Lin Fan didn't know about Wu Yusen's sacrifice, and began to think about Xingchen with a leisurely look on his face.
"Can we find a place to look at the stars when we get back? I won't feel at ease unless I try it once." She is a person with a strong sense of responsibility.
It was inconvenient before, but now that I have to go back to the institute, why don’t I check it out first?
It's just that due to the size of the star, a wider space is needed, otherwise she could just try it in her own office without asking John Woo.
"Well, I need to ask about this." Wu Yusen pondered for a moment, "I guess it won't be possible today. Many people in the institute want to see the stars, including the researchers who will be taking over your files. So finding a place isn't a problem. I guess we'll have to wait until everyone is gathered."
Lin Fan counted silently in his mind.
Director Zhu should be watching it, and John Woo will naturally be there too. The researchers can't go to work until tomorrow, so the earliest we can see it will probably be tomorrow.
Well, it only took one night.
"It would be embarrassing if I couldn't transform then." Lin Fan worried, his hands resting on his cheeks. "I'd probably die of embarrassment."
Thinking about how so many people were waiting helplessly but nothing came in the end, Lin Fan had already started thinking about how to end it politely but not awkwardly.
"It's okay. Even if you can't transform for the time being, don't worry. Just think of it as everyone coming here to recognize your face and get familiar with you." Wu Yusen comforted him, "After all, not many people in the institute have seen you before."
That's fine. Lin Fan nodded. If the new product showcase were to become a meet-and-greet, it wouldn't be too bad.
The two chatted all the way, and by the time they entered the parking lot of the special affairs office, the lights outside had already come on.
Wu Yusen carried the bags back to Lin Fan's office. He then took her to the equipment department to get her old phone, which wouldn't charge, repaired. He also left her new phone there while the equipment was being installed.
The Special Affairs Office and 800 had originally installed dual monitoring devices on Lin Fan's phone. Now that he had changed his phone, they naturally had to be moved over.
After finishing their business, the two went to the cafeteria to find food.
Perhaps because he was used to being held by others in the past few days, Lin Fan unconsciously took Wu Yusen's hand.
Wu Yusen glanced at it without saying a word. This sudden surprise was becoming less and less...
As I got out of the elevator, I saw an acquaintance.
Jin Sichen had a very pleasant New Year.
No missions, no surprises.
He stocked up on a bunch of delicious food at home, lay comfortably for a few days, and watched TV series from morning to night. It was so wonderful.
Until he had to go to work tomorrow, he felt that he should adapt to the work schedule in advance, so he came out to look for food.
After a delicious meal, I walked leisurely towards the elevator, ready to go back and continue watching the TV series I had just watched.
When I looked up, I saw John Woo coming out with a child.
"Hey, Wu Te, whose child did you bring to dinner?" Jin Sichen teased. "You have the potential to be a good dad..."
As he got closer, he glanced at the little girl being led by hand and felt she looked strangely familiar. He stared a few more times... oh, why does she look like Lin Fan...
Look at the familiar look in her big, watery eyes...
"...Lin Fan?" An unbelievable answer popped up in Jin Sichen's mind, and his brows were furrowed like a knot.
"Hey, Jin Sichen, Happy New Year!" Lin Fan smiled and raised his other hand to wave.
...Jin Sichen lowered his eyes to look at the little man who was only as tall as his thigh, then turned his head stiffly to look at John Woo.
What is going on here?
"Oh..." John Woo knew that he would have to explain himself when he met acquaintances.
Unexpectedly, the first person he met was Jin Sichen, who was the one most familiar with Lin Fan. "That's perfect. Don't leave, help with the food."
When Lin Fan was at their house, Aunt Wu was always afraid that the child would eat too much, so she controlled her food intake.
If there weren't a lot of snacks at home that she could secretly eat when Aunt Wu wasn't paying attention, she would have been starving.
Now that I’m back at the Special Affairs Office, shouldn’t I eat as much as I want?
Jin Sichen's curiosity forced him to follow the two of them and help them carry the tray, and he provided attentive service by escorting them to their seats.
Only then did John Woo recount the story in this way.
"...Anyway, it's what you see now." Wu Yusen shrugged. "We can only wait for her to recover naturally."
"...No wonder." Jin Sichen rubbed his chin. "I was wondering, the chat in group 623 was so lively, but Lin Fan was silent the whole time. I thought she hadn't been checking her phone."
It turned out that the phone was broken.
"What are you talking about? So lively?" Xiao Linfan raised his head from the bowl.
Jin Sichen took out his mobile phone, opened the group chat and handed it to her.
"They didn't have any holiday for Spring Festival this year. They all said they missed you last year. Although they didn't specifically @ you, they basically talked about you."
Lin Fan swiped his hands for a while. There were quite a lot of messages in the group, especially Li Chunhua said the most.
"I was talking in the group the night before, but no one paid attention to me. Haha, when they have time, I can't see them anymore..." Lin Fan laughed and returned the phone to Jin Sichen.
Seeing that he had put away his phone and was still staring at her, she asked, "What's wrong?"
Jin Sichen suddenly hugged her gently without warning.
Lin Fan stared blankly at John Woo opposite him, not daring to move.
Jin Sichen huddled against her shoulder and muttered something, which only Lin Fan, with his amazing hearing, could hear clearly.
He said: "It's okay..."
Lin Fan knew he was still reeling from the human trafficking incident, and he felt bad for it himself. He patted his shoulders gently to offer comfort.
"So what happened to that guy later? Don't tell me you don't know?" Jin Sichen quickly let go of her and sat up straight, but his face was very cold.
"We followed her to uncover a gang and rescued many abducted children and women," said John Woo.
"So, our Lin Fan has also made a contribution?" Jin Sichen clapped his hands and laughed. "I have to talk to the director and tell him to remember to apply."
Lin Fan tugged at his sleeve, "I didn't do anything, how could I have achieved anything?"
"If it weren't for you, would that woman have been caught? Even if she was passively meritorious, it's still meritorious!" Jin Sichen reached out and rubbed her little head.
Because of his childhood experiences, he has a genuine aversion to children.
Even though he was a psychologist, he could only alleviate some emotions, not completely eliminate them. So, when he saw children, he always kept his distance.
I never thought that there would come a day when he would find children cute.
"Next time you encounter a difficult situation, remember to take out your work ID and use it. Have you told her the purpose of the work ID?" He first reminded Lin Fan, then turned to ask John Woo, and received an affirmative answer from the other party.
Lin Fan had apparently just remembered the special purpose of his work permit. His eyes widened, and he felt as if struck by lightning.
When she heard Wu Yusen talk about it before, she knew it was very rare and even put it in her small shoulder bag. But when she really encountered the situation, she simply didn't remember it at all...
However, her condition at the time was such that she couldn't even straighten her arms, and she was tripping over her left foot when walking. Even if she remembered, she might not be able to use it smoothly.
And isn’t it a bit too much to use work permits against ordinary people?
Not really, that woman is not an ordinary person...
Looking at the changing expressions on Lin Fan's little face, Jin Sichen smiled and couldn't help but rub his soft hair again.
Mmm... so cute!
When he returned, he ran into someone he knew. John Woo was unhappy. Lin Fan had changed again.
(Continued from yesterday)
But I have already written a few chapters later, so I won’t change them for now.
Besides, adjusting the rhythm takes time. I will try to make it faster and delete some plots. Please give me some time.
Everyone’s comments have been so gentle, haha, thank you.
If you find any problems with my writing, please let me know and I'll do my best to adjust. Sometimes I'm so happy writing that I don't notice. Hahahaha.
Finally, thank you all for your tolerance, encouragement, and motivation. I'm very happy to have you by my side during this time. I bow.
I will continue to work hard and strive to write a better plot. Fist.
(Okay, finally finished posting. The writer's words have a word limit, and I don't want to post them in the main text and waste everyone's money. I can't see the word count on the pad, so I've been tossing and turning. I'm exhausted after a long time.)
