Now that the decision has been made, Lin Fan doesn't want to delay.
The next morning, after having breakfast at home, I said goodbye to my parents.
Mr. Lin was well prepared. Although he was reluctant, he still greeted him with a smile.
Lin's mother, however, was not in a good mood and grumbled, "You left in less than half a day! Even hotels don't let you stay like this."
She hadn't had time to ask about Xiao Wu yet. Was this damn girl deliberately avoiding her?
Mother Lin's eyebrows twitched. Seeing Lin Fan standing at the door staring at her, her heart began to falter again...
Lin Fan sighed softly, took two steps forward, and gently hugged Lin's mother.
I don’t know when was the last time I hugged Lin Ma, maybe it was in elementary school?
Lin's mother is only 1.6 meters tall and looks very thin in Lin Fan's arms.
Lin Fan's hand touched Lin Ma's shoulder. Through the thin layer of skin, he could feel the bone, which was extremely thin. Although her hair was curled and heated, it was clearly gray.
Despite his complicated feelings towards Lin Ma, Lin Fan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Lin Ma is getting old...
Mother Lin was frozen in place, not knowing what was going on. Lin Fan let her go again and gave Father Lin next to him another hug.
Dad Lin is about 1.7 meters tall, but he has shrunk a bit in the past two years, perhaps because he has gotten older. Lin Fan feels that he has become shorter.
I have a fat body and I am sweating a little, probably because of high blood pressure.
"Xiao Fan, what happened?" Dad Lin's voice trembled and he didn't dare to move.
"Yeah, what happened?" Mother Lin looked at her daughter worriedly. She couldn't care less about Xiao Wu at this moment. "Is it because things aren't going well at work? Or is Xiao Wu bullying you? If you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. Just ignore Mom. It's okay if you don't get married!"
"Yeah, don't keep your grievances to yourself." Lin's father pulled Lin Fan away with both hands, trying to pull her away to see if she was crying. "The doctor said that your illness has a high recurrence rate. The worst thing to do is to keep things in your heart. If you have anything, tell me..."
Lin Fan managed his expression the moment they were pulled apart, smiling and saying to the two of them, "What are you thinking? I saw an article online saying that hugging is good for parent-child relationships."
She looked at Lin's mother for confirmation and said, "If you don't believe me, ask Mom. Has an expert ever said so?"
As a typical middle-aged woman, Lin's mother often posts some seemingly plausible pseudo-science in the family group. Today it's like this, tomorrow it's like that, it's very lively.
Mother Lin saw that her daughter and husband were looking at her, and she tried hard to recall.
She had posted so much, how could she remember? She could only vaguely reply, "It seems... there is such a saying."
"Look, let me tell you something." Lin Fan turned to his father again. "I wanted to try out a new method to improve family harmony. Why are you all acting like this?"
Dad Lin looked at Lin Fan's face again and again. He was smiling and there was indeed no sign of unhappiness on his face.
He had never imagined that his daughter would one day be able to lie so fluently, so he temporarily suppressed his worries and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, it happened without any sound and scared us." Mother Lin hit Lin Fan's arm in an angry tone and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems this method doesn't work." Lin Fan interrupted with a smile, "Okay, I won't use it anymore, and you don't have to be scared anymore."
She opened the door, stepped out, and turned back to smile. "Mom, Dad, don't see me off. I'll just take a taxi to the train station. I'll come back to see you next time I have a day off. Take care of yourself!"
After saying that, without waiting for the old couple to react, he closed the door and ran downstairs with a "dong dong dong" sound.
When Lin's mother opened the door again, Lin Fan was no longer at the stairs.
When I ran to the window to look again, Lin Fan had already run away.
"Old Lin..." Mother Lin patted Father Lin's arm, "Why do I always feel a little uneasy?"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Dad Lin yelled at Mom Lin, closed the window, and sat on the sofa without saying a word.
"How about we go to the temple and burn some incense to get some peace of mind?" Mother Lin also walked to the sofa and sat down.
Dad Lin was in a bad mood and remained silent for a long time without paying any attention to anyone.
When Lin Ma thought he would ignore her and was about to get up to clear the table, he spoke up. "Which temple are you going to?"
Lin's mother's eyes lit up, and she slid over to Lin's father. "It's the famous one, the Zhenguo Temple. There's a statue of Guanyin in the temple that's dozens of meters tall. I hear it's very powerful."
"Okay! Let's go there." Father Lin agreed without hesitation, "Please light the highest incense stick and pray for Xiaofan."
"Okay!" Mother Lin also smiled with relief. "This time, no matter how expensive it is, I will buy the best peace incense for my Xiaofan. May the Bodhisattva bless my Xiaofan with good health and all the best..."
Lin Fan didn't know what Lin's parents did after she left. She rushed back to the Special Affairs Office as quickly as possible, but Ri Rihong hadn't arrived yet.
I used my work ID to open the door, got off the elevator, and went directly into Zhu Cunjun's office.
Zhu Cunjun received Lin Fan's reply last night and was waiting for her in the office early in the morning.
Seeing her open the door and walk in like she was dressed in flowers, full of energy and determination, I felt both relieved and reluctant to leave. "Are you here?"
Lin Fan smiled and replied, "I'm coming."
The door slowly closed, and a new day had just begun...
Because he didn't want to be discovered by acquaintances, Lin Fan went back to pack some important personal items, picked up a small handbag and left with the driver specially sent by Zhu Cunjun.
She took the spare combat uniform from the room, and she didn't dare touch the one in John Woo's car...
Many days passed like this, and Wang Fengfeng and Wu Yusen didn't notice it. They thought Lin Fan was still in his hometown dealing with things.
Although the special office allows employees to maintain long-distance contact with their families, it is still very humane.
If there is a special situation at home, leave will be given very readily.
Like John Woo before, when something happened at home and he had to go back, he took a leave of nearly ten days and only came back after everything was settled.
Wang Fengfeng personally investigated Lin Fan's family situation, so he knew it quite clearly.
When she was away, Wang Fengfeng lost his gossip buddy and had no one to share his gossip with, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Half a month had passed, and Lin Fan still hadn't returned, and there was no news.
Wang Fengfeng expressed his concerns while having dinner with John Woo.
"What do you think? Should we take the initiative to care about Fanfan?"
Lin Fan had a rather sullen personality and rarely took the initiative to bother others. Everyone knew this about his character.
Wu Yusen was a little hesitant, and was afraid that taking the initiative to speak would increase Lin Fan's pressure.
Every family has its own problems. Many of the messy things at home are not suitable to be told to outsiders...
"Hey~ Wu Te, why are you here? Aren't you with your Minister Lin?" An acquaintance came over to say hello.
Minister Lin was Lin Fan's job title, and also a nickname for him among his acquaintances. It became a nickname, almost like a nickname. It spread, and everyone started calling him that.
"Lin Fan had something happen at home, so he went home." Wang Fengfeng answered for him.
"When did it happen? Is it serious?" The man frowned and sat down.
Lin Fan had a previous mental disorder, and everyone who had dealt with her had told her about it.
"It's been a week now, and we were still thinking about whether or not to send a message to show our concern." Wang Fengfeng turned to Wu Yusen and said, "You shouldn't have sent her to the train station that day. You should have accompanied her back and checked on the situation."
"Huh?" The person sitting next to him noticed something was wrong. "You took Minister Lin to the train station? That's not right. Didn't the logistics department's car take her there? I happened to be in the parking lot that day and saw her get on the logistics department's car..."
"When?" John Woo turned his head and his expression changed drastically.
When the two sides met, they found out that Lin Fan had returned to the Special Affairs Office the next day, and then left quietly in the logistics vehicle.
John Woo opened his phone and looked through the call logs and chat groups, including the 623 group, but there was no message at all.
He subconsciously wanted to call Lin Fan, but stopped himself and grabbed Wang Fengfeng.
"Come on, help me see what's going on!"
Found it, found it. As long as you do something, there is a chance that it will be discovered.
I was complaining yesterday and my baby comforted me, haha, I was so happy.
In fact, some people said I was too long-winded in the early stage. I remember that I deliberately changed it at that time and sped up for a short period of time. But then I unconsciously returned to my old ways, hehe
This... probably has something to do with personality, haha.
I'll try my best to revise it and see if I can make it more concise and less verbose.
But don't get your hopes up too much.
After all, it's easy to change the country, hahahaha
