Chapter 342: Definitely Not a Traitor
We are all living under the same roof, how can you be the only one to be attacked?
Ding Yougui and Wei Dongliang, who had realized the "sadness transfer method", spared no effort to speak for Lin Xiangnan when others came to inquire about information.
Facts have proved that it was not that the two classmates were too weak, but that their opponents were too strong.
After doing good things, Ding Yougui and Wei Dongliang would come to Lin Xiangnan to report their results.
"See? The way that woman looked at you was shining. It felt like she was about to fall in love with you."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you have to admire this man's back. I think he's very sad."
Lin Xiangnan gritted his teeth and couldn't help wanting to knock them on the head. He warned them, "Don't do it. I want to keep a low profile."
"You're in this situation now, and you still want to keep a low profile?" Ding Yougui was speechless.
The persona that Lin Xiangnan wanted to establish in the research institute was not that smart, but the persona he was working hard on secretly left himself enough room to slack off.
With such publicity from Ding Yougui and Wei Dongliang, it seemed as if Lin Xiangnan was gifted and it would be easy for him to achieve results.
Based on Lin Xiangnan's years of experience as a slacker, this character cannot be established.
When a salted fish occasionally turns over, most people around him praise it. When a king of rolls occasionally takes a break, people around him still can't accept it.
"Don't think I'm relaxed. My brain is working like crazy every day. I'm working really hard and I'm very tired. Smiling is just a mask. I'm just forcing myself to stay together."
Lin Xiangnan forced a fragile smile on his face at the right moment, looking weak, pitiful and helpless.
She acted very attentively, but Ding Yougui and Wei Dongliang didn't buy it at all.
"You mean, my brain doesn't work normally? My brain is tired day after day." Ding Yougui retorted.
Wei Dongliang continued, "That's right, if you call that hard work, then what are we? Try harder, work harder?"
If Lin Xiangnan had mentioned talent, they would have been speechless and would have honestly admitted defeat. Even if there were geniuses in the world, 99% of sweat could not compare to that one% of inspiration. But Lin Xiangnan insisted on talking about hard work, and they had something to say.
The two of them kept talking, not giving Lin Xiangnan a chance to interrupt.
Seeing that he could not win the fight, Lin Xiangnan directly used his ultimate move, "Hand in your reports. Have you two submitted them? Has the teacher reviewed them? Is there anything that needs to be revised?"
One sentence to shut up the two men.
The break was over and they had to go back to their jobs.
Chatting and gossiping are just activities they do during their breaks. In terms of hard work, they are indeed better than Lin Xiangnan.
When Lin Xiangnan got some free time, he didn't stay in the institute for long. He just went home with his bag.
Having just finished a big job, she had to reward herself. On Sunday, Lin Xiangnan took Dabao and Xiaobao out to buy clothes and jewelry.
After carrying the bags of things home, Lin Xiangnan called Huang Xiaogang to go look at the house.
"This yard is a bit old, but it's cheap and the house is easy to rent. Just spread the word on the day and it can be rented out the next day." Huang Xiaogang recommended enthusiastically.
Since he wasn't going to live there himself, Lin Xiangnan simply looked around and wasn't too picky. "It's OK. If you can help me bargain down another 200, I'll buy it."
"That's definitely no problem. The homeowner will agree. You're giving a real price." Huang Xiaogang praised.
"As for the tenants, I'll leave it to you. I don't have that much time."
Huang Xiaogang patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Sister Lin. I will definitely do everything for you and won't let you worry about anything. There is also a self-built house in the suburbs. Do you want to take a look?"
"I won't look at self-built houses." Lin Xiangnan refused. The procedures for self-built houses were incomplete and it would be easy to cause disputes. There would be many opportunities to buy a house in the future, and Lin Xiangnan was not in a hurry to buy a house at this moment.
He found some time to spend more than a thousand yuan to buy a small courtyard, spending all the bonus given by Professor Wang in one go. Only then did Lin Xiangnan feel refreshed.
However, after shopping for so long, Lin Xiangnan was a little tired. After buying the house, Lin Xiangnan prepared to go home for dinner and then take a nice nap.
But when she got home, she found the house empty except for Wuyun.
"We were at home just now. Where are all the people?" Lin Xiangnan muttered, gently pushed Wuyun and asked, "Where is my mom? Where are Dabao and Xiaobao?"
Lin Xiangnan didn't need to say much, Wuyun led the way consciously.
Lin Xiangnan was brought all the way to the Public Security Bureau.
Seeing the Public Security Bureau, Lin Xiangnan thought about it and finally couldn't help saying, "No way, could it be that my mother sold tea eggs and someone got poisoned? Or did someone have an allergy to eggs? Allergy to tea? Allergy to spices?"
"Woof woof~" Wuyun called and shook his head towards the Public Security Bureau, signaling Lin Xiangnan to go in quickly and not delay.
The public security officers in this area are quite familiar with Lin Xiangnan.
Previously, Lin Xiangnan had stolen a color TV and a bicycle. It took the police a long time to find out what they had lost.
Seeing Lin Xiangnan, the police in the bureau greeted him in a natural manner: "You are here. They are interrogating you. Please sit down for a while."
Interrogation in progress? Lin Xiangnan paused and cautiously asked, "How is the interrogation going?"
"This man has a very improper attitude. He is a repeat offender. We will interrogate him thoroughly," the police officer replied.
Hearing that the attitude was not correct, Lin Xiangnan pursed her lips unconsciously. When she heard that it was done again, Lin Xiangnan was relieved. The offender must not be one of her family. Their whole family was a good citizen who obeyed the law and had never committed any crime.
Lin Xiangnan was just about to ask about the details when Dabao and Xiaobao rushed over and hugged her legs.
"Mom, why are you here?"
"You were not at home, Wuyun brought me here." Lin Xiangnan rubbed the two treasures' heads and asked, "Are you two okay?"
"They are fine. This is your aunt's business." Hu Meili explained, "Feng Zhaodi, who was caught stealing the color TV at home, has come out. She saw you bought so many things and asked your aunt about it. Your aunt thought something was wrong and suspected she was a spy, so she took her to the police station."
"Are you so fierce?" Lin Xiangnan leaned back tactically.
"Didn't I scare your ninth aunt before? She was afraid that she would be labeled a traitor for no reason, and it would be shameful for her eight generations of ancestors if she told others about it."
Hu Meili complained, "You bought a lot of things today, and Feng Zhaodi saw it. She asked your aunt how you got the money. Did your company give you a bonus? How much was the bonus? When she mentioned your company, Aunt Jiu's guard suddenly rose to the highest level."
In this kind of situation, it's better to be safe than sorry.
Song Chujiu felt that he was a stupid person. He couldn't figure it out, so he just sent her to the Public Security Bureau. The Public Security Bureau would help him figure out whether Feng Zhaodi was a spy or not.
