Lin Fan put down his pen, pushed the thick files aside, and then looked up at Tian Mengyao, astonished. "You finished already? That's not fair!"
"So you asked me to come over just to do grunt work for you while you were slacking off?"
Tian Mengyao chuckled, then retorted indignantly, "What do you mean I was slacking off? You were just copying and writing. Where did the data on those documents come from?"
"It was all from my hard work researching and calculating!"
"You're the one slacking off, not paying any attention to your own village's affairs!"
Lin Fan shrugged. "Alright, I can't argue with you."
He stood up and said, "I'm done here, I need to leave."
Tian Mengyao smirked. "There's still a lot more. You wouldn't be able to finish it in three days and three nights."
She beckoned. "Come over here and look at the computer yourself."
"Why would I look at that?"
Lin Fan immediately felt guilty.
His family's financial situation wasn't good, and he had never been exposed to computers since he was young.
Even though he had money now, he didn't have the chance to use it, so he hadn't bothered to learn how to use a computer.
"Just come over when I tell you to."
Tian Mengyao urged him impatiently.
Lin Fan had no choice but to walk over.
"Huh?"
Seeing the image on the screen, Lin Fan found it familiar. "Isn't this a topographic map of the medicinal herb planting base?"
Lin Fan looked at the image, which was outlined with lines of green or purple dashed lines, and felt amazed.
If he looked closely, he could also see valleys, ponds, and streams.
Everything was marked perfectly!
Tian Mengyao tilted her chin up, asking proudly, "How is it? Impressive, right?"
"It's quite impressive. Who drew it? This must have been expensive, right?"
Lin Fan stared at the laptop screen.
The magic of technology had a unique charm that made him inexplicably want to explore its origins.
"I drew it myself."
Tian Mengyao wasn't modest at all, her lips curved into a wide smile.
"If I had hired a professional, it would have cost at least ten thousand, and that's a favor price. But by doing it myself, I didn't spend a penny. I saved you money, you know?"
"Thank you very much. I didn't realize you had this skill."
Lin Fan had known from the beginning that Tian Mengyao was highly educated, but he had never seen it firsthand.
Now, looking at the CAD image before him, Lin Fan deeply felt the power of knowledge.
"This model isn't precise enough yet. Many of the data points are just estimates."
"Xiao Fan, I need you to accompany me on a few trips to measure the real data. That way, the budget report won't have too much of a margin of error, and it will be convenient for future construction and planning."
Lin Fan nodded, then paused. "Why are there more and more things to do? Didn't you say I needed to help you with the procedures?"
Tian Mengyao shot him a glare. "Now you know how busy I am every day, right?"
"Yes, I know."
Lin Fan pointed at the computer and asked, "Can you teach me how to use this thing?"
"You want to learn computers?"
Tian Mengyao chuckled. "Of course, but this laptop is mine. How about you sponsor the village committee with one? You can use it yourself then."
"I'll buy one."
Lin Fan didn't even ask the price.
He had money now; he could buy whatever he wanted.
Tian Mengyao's eyes twinkled as she thought, "Just as I guessed, this rascal has secret savings!"
She pointed to the chair opposite her and said, "Move your chair over here. I'll teach you some basic operations."
And so, they sat side by side, with Tian Mengyao explaining the basic knowledge of computers piece by piece.
When her throat felt dry from talking, Tian Mengyao clicked open a software and said, "You watch a movie for a while, I'll go make some tea."
After she got up and left, Lin Fan immediately moved to her seat.
Having only listened to her explanation, Lin Fan was already impatient.
Lin Fan clicked on a movie and was greeted by a lengthy advertisement.
He was helpless and looked up. "Secretary Tian, is there anything without ads?"
Tian Mengyao, standing at the water dispenser, turned her head and replied, "I forgot. I don't really watch movies on that software, and I haven't bought a membership. Click on the Blu-ray video. It's in the bottom left corner."
"Oh."
Lin Fan replied, then closed the software. Just as he was about to move the mouse to the bottom left corner, a small window popped up in the bottom right corner: "Watch exciting movies for free, all at..."
As if possessed, Lin Fan clicked on it.
The moment the mouse cursor landed, a dazzling and chaotic page instantly took over the entire screen.
On the screen, a beautiful woman with a voluptuous figure was swaying seductively and making alluring sounds.
Lin Fan's head buzzed at the sight, and he was completely stunned.
Pfft~
Tian Mengyao, who had just taken a sip of tea, heard the sound and immediately spat out the tea.
Tian Mengyao put down her teacup, took two quick steps, and rushed over.
At this moment, Lin Fan was sweating profusely, frantically clicking the 'X' in the top right corner.
However, every time he clicked, a new page would pop up.
Thus, the seductive sounds began to overlap.
He clicked more than twenty times, and twenty-odd pages popped up.
The soul-stirring voices echoed throughout the office like a choir!
Bang!
With a loud bang.
In her haste, Tian Mengyao forcefully closed the laptop.
The next second, the computer entered sleep mode, and the office finally became quiet.
"Uh, I..."
"That..."
Lin Fan's face burned like fire.
He regretted it immensely.
He had guessed what it was, yet he still clicked on it. Damn it!
How was he going to explain this?
He was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
Tian Mengyao snorted and asked, "Did you click on something you shouldn't have, and the computer got a virus?"
Lin Fan spread his hands. "I don't know what happened. A window just suddenly appeared in the bottom right corner, and I clicked on it, and then this happened."
He thought for a moment and then suddenly asked, "How did that kind of thing get on your computer?"
"How would I know? It must be a virus. I haven't run a virus scan in a long time."
As Tian Mengyao said this, she suddenly changed the subject. "If my computer gets damaged, you have to buy me a new one. This is my private property and has always been used for work."
"Okay, okay, I'll buy you a new one if it's broken."
Lin Fan spoke absentmindedly, his mind still filled with the steamy images he had just seen.
"You look disgusting right now!"
Tian Mengyao punched Lin Fan twice fiercely. "Get away from me. If you want to ponder, go back and ponder by yourself!"
If it were anyone else, she would have cursed them out and kicked them out.
Lin Fan stood up and said indignantly, "It wasn't me who wanted to watch it. It just popped up on its own."
