"No, no, no."
Jiao Dajun quickly shook his head and waved his hands. "Boss Su, to be honest with you, as you can see, Luofeng Village is, to put it bluntly, a place where even birds wouldn't defecate. The villagers are just eager to earn a little more money, even if it's just to supplement their daily expenses."
He gave a wry smile. "You wouldn't know how difficult it is for people in our poor, remote area to earn money."
"That doesn't sound right. If that's the case, why is no one willing to work? It must be that the village committee isn't offering enough wages!"
Su Yurou's voice was stern and fierce, feigning anger.
"Actually, the village committee's offer isn't bad, it's just..."
Jiao Dajun secretly glanced at Lin Fan.
Everyone in the village knew that Aunt Li and her husband had a good relationship with Lin Fan's family.
And Secretary Tian particularly valued him.
Ultimately, this whole matter was stirred up by him.
"What are you looking at him for?"
Su Yurou patted Lin Fan on the shoulder. "Xiao Fan, did you bend the law for personal gain and tamper with things from within? I trusted you so much..."
"I'm wrongly accused!"
Lin Fan shouted indignantly.
"Boss Su, please don't misunderstand."
Jiao Dajun explained, "Xiao Fan's character is well-known in the village. If you don't believe me, go ask around, and you'll know he would never do anything bad."
Thinking about it now, it was just that Aunt Li and her husband earned a little more money!
Lin Fan had brought in all the investment himself. It was perfectly normal for him to get some benefits for those close to him.
Besides,
When the villagers went to the clinic, the medicine prescribed was not only effective but also very cheap.
And the villagers who had received favors from others were quibbling over this small matter, dragging their feet and trying to demand higher wages from the village committee. It was indeed unreasonable.
"Forget it, let's try another place."
Su Yurou stood up to leave.
"Wait!"
Jiao Dajun hurriedly called out.
"Boss Su, the cooperative in our village was funded by you, right?"
Jiao Dajun looked ashamed.
"Yes."
Su Yurou nodded slightly. "Now I realize I might have made a wrong decision, or perhaps, I chose the wrong person to execute it."
Hearing this, Jiao Dajun felt a chill run down his spine.
"Boss Su, it has nothing to do with the village committee, nor with Xiao Fan, it's just..."
Jiao Dajun still didn't dare to tell the truth. "Boss Su, let me give you a basket I made myself. You are a good person, and all the people in our village are grateful to you!"
As he spoke, Jiao Dajun ran into the house.
But by the time he brought out the basket, Su Yurou, guided by Lin Fan, had already gone to another family nearby.
"Sigh~"
Jiao Dajun slapped his thigh heavily. "What is all this!"
...
Lin Fan led Su Yurou to visit over a dozen households.
Su Yurou's beautiful legs were trembling.
"That's about enough, let's go to the village committee to report."
"Xiao Chun, go get the car."
Su Yurou took out the car keys and shook them listlessly.
"Yes, Boss."
Xiao Chun took the car keys and hurried away.
"You've worked hard."
Lin Fan saw a wooden log on a pile of firewood nearby and picked it up.
"Sit for a while first."
"Okay."
Su Yurou didn't care about the dirt and, with Lin Fan's support, slowly sat down.
"Hoo~"
Su Yurou let out a long sigh, feeling utterly exhausted.
"Let me give you a massage."
"No need."
Su Yurou refused. "Don't let the villagers see. It won't be good if it gets back to your Secretary Tian."
"What are you afraid of? Am I afraid of her seeing?"
"You're not afraid, but I am."
Su Yurou looked up at Lin Fan. "I'm just a small woman, I can't withstand the fuss from a high-ranking official's daughter like her."
As they were talking, the sports car pulled up.
"Boss, let me help you."
The three of them headed towards the village committee.
Along the way, Lin Fan saw many villagers gathered and talking through the car window.
When they saw the sports car approaching, they immediately fell silent. Only after the car drove away did they resume their conversation.
Lin Fan chuckled.
From this, it seemed the matter had been resolved.
Village Committee.
Tian Mengyao was sulking in her office.
Seeing Su Yurou looking almost exhausted, she felt a pang of guilt.
Was she being too petty?
"It went smoothly, no hitches at all. Tomorrow, you can call them to come to work. As long as someone takes the lead, more and more people will join."
Lin Fan was confident and full of assurance.
"That's good."
Tian Mengyao let out a sigh of relief.
She deeply felt her lack of social experience, becoming helpless whenever she encountered a thorny problem.
"You go ahead and do your work. I'll take Boss Su back."
As Lin Fan spoke, Tian Mengyao immediately became wary and looked at Su Yurou.
Su Yurou understood and waved her hand. "No need, I can go back by myself."
Only after she and Xiao Chun left did Tian Mengyao's gaze soften.
What's going on?
Tian Mengyao guessed that Su Yurou must have found out something, otherwise, she wouldn't have taken this attitude.
Last time, they were at loggerheads, refusing to back down in their struggle for benefits!
Hmph!
It's good that she knows!
Tian Mengyao never used her status to pressure people, but she didn't mind enjoying the benefits that came with it.
"I'm going back to the clinic to tidy up. It's been closed for several days."
Lin Fan said and turned to leave.
"Oh."
Tian Mengyao wanted to call him back, but the words stopped at her lips.
Let him go, why should she keep him?
It was as if she couldn't live without him!
In the village committee courtyard, Xiao Chun had already started the sports car.
Lin Fan hurried over and knocked on the car window.
Su Yurou rolled down the window and asked, "What are you doing? Are you going to take me back to the clinic?"
"I have something to tell you."
Lin Fan opened the rear door and got in.
Su Yurou smiled, and her mood instantly improved.
The journey was silent.
When the sports car stopped in the apartment complex parking lot, Su Yurou finally opened her eyes.
"Boss, we've arrived."
"You can take a taxi back."
Su Yurou instructed.
"Okay."
Before getting out of the car, Xiao Chun secretly glanced at Lin Fan sitting in the back, guessing what would happen next. xxs壹贰
So, cousin and him...
Xiao Chun calculated the age difference between them and was somewhat surprised, but then thought about it and felt it was not a big deal.
Cousin was well-maintained and in her prime.
And Lin Fan was a virile young man.
It seemed...
Perfectly suited!
As Xiao Chun's thoughts raced, she got out of the car and left. "Putting aside anything else, with Lin Fan's medical skills and his identity as a disciple of the President of the Northern Feng Shui Association, how many women would eagerly pursue him without success!"
"If he could help me open a beauty salon, let alone eagerly pursue him, I wouldn't even mind being a mistress!"
A glint of ambition flickered in Xiao Chun's eyes as she began to ponder how to approach Lin Fan.
On the other side.
Lin Fan was already helping Su Yurou into the house.
"Do you have any medicinal wine at home? Let me give you a massage first."
