"I'm really leaving now."
Wang Ying said this, and in her heart, she was also very reluctant.
"Sister Wang Ying."
Lin Fan called out Wang Ying's name with a dejected tone.
Wang Ying stepped forward, hugged Lin Fan, and said softly, "It's okay, I'm not not coming back. I'm just lying low for now."
After a brief moment of intimacy, they walked out of the clinic together.
Lin Fan stood at the entrance, with a thousand words in his heart but no idea how to express them.
"Xiao Fan."
Wang Ying had walked a few steps when she suddenly turned back.
She looked up at Lin Fan, then shyly lowered her head, stammering, "You wouldn't even use the one I bought."
"What if I... what if I got pregnant?"
She said this, actually just wanting to test Lin Fan's attitude towards her.
"Then we'll have it."
Lin Fan's answer was crisp and without hesitation.
Wang Ying had a different personality from Su Yurou.
Su Yurou was very ambitious and would never let go of an opportunity for advancement.
Therefore, Lin Fan had always been unwilling to get too close to her.
As for Wang Ying, Lin Fan could see that she was the kind of woman who was family-oriented and virtuous.
She had no grand ambitions and not many pursuits, only hoping for a stable life.
So, if she were to have a child, it would undoubtedly be best to keep it.
"Who wants to have your child!"
Wang Ying's face turned red with shyness, and she turned around, "I'm really going now!"
She walked to the car, opened the door, and happily got in.
When she turned and saw Lin Fan still standing there, her heart was even more delighted.
She made a cute face at Lin Fan and blew a sweet kiss, "Love you!"
Lin Fan smiled and thought, "Even though there's quite an age gap between us, why does she feel like a young maiden, so captivating?"
Wang Ying felt similarly, "Why is he so mature, so manly, not like a child at all?"
She waved at Lin Fan and then drove away.
Lin Fan watched her drive further and further away, until she disappeared from his sight, feeling a sense of loss.
"If I hadn't gone too far last night, she wouldn't have had to leave so early. Sigh!"
At the Village Committee.
Tian Mengyao frowned and asked Wu Lei after listening to his report, "You're saying that Xiao Fan's clinic was haunted last night?"
"Absolutely true!"
"Liu Da Nao Tou was so scared he's still in bed."
"I knew there was something suspicious about Lin Fan a long time ago."
"Secretary Tian, think about it. He was paralyzed at home for a whole year, how did he suddenly know medicine when he woke up?"
"Also, before you came, Secretary Tian, when he first woke up, he immediately beat up Wang Quezi and a few thugs until they were spitting blood."
"How old is he? How did he suddenly become so powerful?"
"Especially his medical skills, it's one thing to know them, but he's too miraculous. The county hospital couldn't cure the illness, but he could, and without spending much money."
Wu Lei had finally caught Lin Fan in a tight spot and naturally wouldn't let it go easily, so he embellished the story.
If Lin Fan's medical skills weren't truly miraculous, he would have taken back the house long ago.
Tian Mengyao stood up and said thoughtfully, "I have something to talk to him about anyway, I'll go and see for myself."
Wu Lei nodded, "Secretary Tian, I'll go with you."
"No need, Village Chief Wu. You contact those people who rent construction vehicles. Try to negotiate a little, save some money for the villagers."
Tian Mengyao had been in her position for a long time and was used to it. She no longer felt any psychological burden in ordering Wu Lei around.
"Okay."
Wu Lei responded and turned to leave.
Tian Mengyao tidied her hair and then went to Xiao Fan's clinic.
It was exactly nine o'clock in the morning, the sun was warm and bright.
The clinic door was wide open, and the room was bright and well-lit, not looking haunted at all.
"You're living quite a comfortable life!"
Tian Mengyao walked into the room and saw Lin Fan sitting on the sofa drinking cola, a surge of jealousy and envy immediately arose in her heart.
She, the dignified village secretary, was busy from morning till night, while Lin Fan, a young and strong laborer, was enjoying himself leisurely in the morning like an old man.
It was upsetting just thinking about it!
"I'm just stealing half a day of leisure. You've seen me when I'm busy."
Lin Fan stood up and asked, "Secretary Tian, what brings you here?"
"I... I heard there was a ghost here, so I came to ask what's going on."
Tian Mengyao said this, but she didn't believe it in her heart.
What era was it? Ghosts? She didn't believe it at all.
Lin Fan looked at the file she was holding and asked, "What's that you're holding?"
"I... this, I was passing by, so I forgot to put it back."
Tian Mengyao stammered. Lin Fan saw through her purpose at a glance, "There's no one else here. How much do you need? Just say it."
Lin Fan sighed, "It's really 'catch a sheep and fleece it dry'."
"It's not what you think."
Tian Mengyao had asked for help only a handful of times in her life and had never experienced such embarrassment.
"Sit down and talk."
Lin Fan pointed to the sofa opposite, "Don't worry, my sister-in-law and sister Yueyue have gone to the city. They probably won't be back for a few days."
Tian Mengyao bit her lower lip and thought, "I've already worked so hard on the cooperative, put in so much effort. A little bit of face doesn't matter now."
With this thought, her burden lessened.
She sat on the sofa, opened the folder, and said, "Xiao Fan, after much thought, I feel that the previous preparations were not sufficient."
"You want more money, right?"
The moment Tian Mengyao entered the room, Lin Fan had already prepared himself mentally.
Tian Mengyao endured her displeasure and gave him a glare, "Setting aside other things, to establish a cooperative, we need a proper venue and office space."
Lin Fan was taken aback, "Isn't Cao's Western-style building spacious enough?"
"Can't it be tidied up?"
Tian Mengyao's eyes widened, and she glared at him, "I can't work in that place. A murder happened there!"
"Alright, alright, I'll pay more. You're in charge of the village anyway, so find a place."
Lin Fan saw her stance and knew that no amount of persuasion would work.
Moreover, although she was naive, pampered, and sometimes a bit willful, she was, after all, a good official who wholeheartedly benefited the people.
Therefore, if he could help, he should help.
Hearing Lin Fan say this, Tian Mengyao became smug.
She became energetic and said loudly, "Xiao Fan, when we start planting next spring, whether it's seeds or fertilizer, transportation will be a big hassle. So it's best to buy a vehicle in the name of the cooperative."
"Oh!"
Although Lin Fan had already agreed in his heart, he couldn't help but tease her a bit.
Who told this little girl to be so cute and charming? If it were some grumpy old man, he wouldn't have this leisure.
"You just asked for a house, and now you want a car. You want quite a lot!"
