Chapter 654: Return or not
Lin Fan sat on the bed in a daze, hugging the quilt.
Antonio's appearance yesterday was so sudden that her head couldn't react for a while.
First, after an ideological struggle, the two settled their differences.
Then the new task given by the director has another meaning.
Later, Antonio nonchalantly exposed Ovie's ambition, and Lin Fan's already poor CPU kept spinning.
Later, the entertainment money specially approved by Zhu Cunjun arrived in his account. Although it was used for Antonio, the barren account finally had money, and Lin Fan was happy.
Wu Yusen later took them out to eat, drink and have fun together. Lin Fan secretly observed and wrote down many techniques that she found useful.
Later, I went to get a haircut during the closing time of the shopping mall and turned myself into a cool girl.
After just one afternoon and evening, she was exhausted both physically and mentally, so she fell on the bed and fell asleep.
It wasn't until I woke up in the morning that I remembered what I had overlooked.
She is going home today!
Lin's mother usually doesn't care much about her, but when the Chinese New Year comes, the family affection seems to swell. Once she shows a little contrary intention, Lin's mother will explode.
According to Lin’s personality, when she last replied to the date of her return home, she must have started to prepare a lot of New Year’s goods. By now, they might have already gotten up to prepare lunch for her.
A mother is kind and her son is filial for a day or two. As for the conflicts that will inevitably arise...that is a matter for later, so let’s not consider it for now.
What about Antonio?
Take him back with you?
No, no, no!
Lin Fan's first reaction was to refuse.
Although Lin's father and Lin's mother don't talk about it on weekdays, her age is here.
For those who are celebrating the New Year, bringing a man of the same age back will make it mean something else.
This is different from bringing Song Ren and the others home two years ago.
At that time, there were several people in their group, and it seemed that there would be no unnecessary misunderstandings.
But if I only bring Antonio with me this time...
Lin Fan fell back on the bed heavily. She could almost imagine the reactions of the two elders in the family.
Can you not bring it? Impossible.
Let’s not say that this is an iron-clad task.
Based on Antonio's hidden identity alone, it was impossible for Lin Fan to leave him in the special office and let John Woo or other colleagues accompany him for a few days.
It would be fine if you didn’t know that he was Apollo. Now that you know it, you can’t treat him like an ordinary person.
Even though they had just settled their differences yesterday, they looked friendly.
But Lin Fan himself knew the power of biological armor.
She also understands that people's hearts are unpredictable.
When there is no problem, everyone can be good friends.
But if something happens, the only thing that can suppress Apollo is her stars.
Of course, Senior Brother and Chitose-sama should also be capable, but one cannot be called and the other cannot be found.
In terms of consequences, it will naturally not be faster than her close supervision.
Yes, Lin Fan felt that another hidden task that the old man asked her to accompany Antonio was to supervise.
If he was just looking for Lin Fan to apologize and for pure friendship, as he said, then let Lin Fan play with him. Hello, I’m hello, everyone.
If there are other purposes, let Lin Fan play with him. When he raised his tail, Xingchen could press it down for him immediately.
If it were anyone else, who could stop Apollo?
Not to mention the energy cannon and lightsaber, he can destroy a large area with a wave of his hand, and no matter how much damage is done, it will be in vain.
So he has to be suppressed by Xingchen who is evenly matched with him.
Apollo is still dangerous in everyone's eyes, but if the stars are around, he will have many scruples, and it will become the safest constraint.
That is to say, Antonio took the initiative to find Lin Fan this time. If not, the old man would also think of a reason to send Lin Fan to Antonio. Although they want to recruit Antonio, compared to their own girl who knows the ins and outs of this guy from country P, everyone is on guard.
Lin Fan is also a person who has seen society. His brain is not as good as that of people at the top of the pyramid, and he can react quickly. But if you take the time to think about it, you can think of seven or seven.
Even if we don’t talk about the undercurrent of crisis, it doesn’t make sense to leave someone alone after they came all the way to her. She went home on her own.
Lin Fan thought that his emotional intelligence wasn't that bad, so he couldn't do this.
So this Spring Festival, both in public and private matters, she must spend it with Antonio.
How about...not going back to celebrate the New Year?
As soon as this thought flashed through Lin Fan's mind, his phone rang.
She trembled all over, and crawled over cautiously to take a look...
As expected, a crow’s brain cannot think about things! ! !
"Hey, Xiaofan, will you arrive before or after dinner? If the time is about the same, your dad and I will wait for your lunch." Lin's mother's high-pitched voice was full of expectant joy, obviously She is looking forward to her daughter returning.
"I..." Lin Fan kept his words in his mouth.
Why don't you just say you won't go back?
"It's all your favorite food for lunch..." Mother Lin didn't notice anything unusual on the other side, and kept to herself, announcing the names of the dishes in a loud voice. "Your dad and I started cooking it yesterday. The beef ribs are all stewed. I'll bring you back to make up for it."
Lin Fan held up the phone and felt the rare expression of tenderness. He couldn't express what was in his heart. .
The last time she went home was for the Chinese New Year last year.
Because of something that suddenly became small, I didn’t say goodbye properly and ran away suddenly.
Both elders thought she was angry because of the man below her, and Mother Lin didn't dare to recruit her for a while.
Now, one year has passed. Did Gro's previous offense have any impact on the old couple? How are they physically? Whether there is good news or bad news...
The concerns that I usually ignore on weekdays suddenly become clear at this moment.
The Special Branch is already understaffed, and her job is dangerous.
At the end of March, I don’t know how to deal with the unknown visitors that day. I was lucky enough to survive this time. Will it happen next time...
Maybe this Chinese New Year is the last time we meet?
Lin Fan became pessimistic as he thought about it.
"Xiaofan, Xiaofan?" The voice on the phone suddenly turned into Lin's father, "Is the signal bad again?"
"How is that possible?" Lin Mom's voice was a little distant, "During the middle of the month, someone came to inspect the signal tower and so on."
"I'm here, Dad." Lin Fan answered quickly.
"Xiao Fan, when will you arrive at noon? Do you want to drink Coke or coconut water? Dad has bought several bottles for you. Which one do you want to drink? I will put it in a pot of warm water for you to heat up for dinner. It’s time to drink it, it’s warm.” Dad Lin asked with a smile.
"I...I..." Lin Fan couldn't say "I won't come back".
Dad Lin waited for a while and felt her hesitation. He quickly thought of his daughter's special job and tentatively spoke. "Did something happen temporarily and I can't come back?"
"What? Can't come back?" Before Lin Fan could answer, Lin's mother exploded over there. "Why can't you come back?! His leadership can't lead the New Year? Why don't you let people have a rest during the New Year?!"
Dad Lin tried to persuade him on the other end, but within a few words, the old couple started to quarrel.
Lin Fan heard that the originally harmonious atmosphere on the other end of the phone suddenly changed, and he quickly shouted, "Come back, come back! Stop arguing, I will definitely come back!"
Dad and Mom Lin both stopped after hearing this. made a sound.
But how can the anger of a quarrel get over so easily?
Mother Lin gave Father Lin a hard look, slammed the door and went back to the room.
Dad Lin picked up the phone and didn’t know what to say anymore.
Lin Fan said some words of comfort and hung up the phone, then rolled on the bed holding his head.
It’s so hard to be a human being...
