There is not much work today, so it can be said to be a very leisurely day. This is how the secretarial office is. When it is busy, they are so busy that they have no time to rest, wishing they could clone themselves. When it is idle, the three of them just stare at each other.
It was not yet time to get off work, but Gu Xingfan was already waiting at the office door. Lin Yanbai felt quite embarrassed. This guy skipped work so openly. Lin Yanbai suspected that he must not be doing any work in the union and was just idling around every day.
Looking at Gu Xingfan waiting at the door, and then at Lin Yanbai sitting at the desk, burying his head in documents, Qiao Linxiu laughed: "Yanbai, why don't you leave first! There's not much to do today, so it doesn't matter if you leave a little earlier!"
He winked at her quietly and said, "Don't worry, we do this all the time!"
Looking at Gu Xingfan who was watching him eagerly, Lin Yanbai thought for a moment, quickly tidied up the table, and walked towards him.
"Let's go back to the dormitory first! I have to go back to get some things!" After getting consent, the two walked towards the dormitory.
Because the girls' dormitory was strictly managed, Gu Xingfan couldn't get in and could only wait for her downstairs. Lin Yan ran into the dormitory like the wind and quickly tapped the "property" in her system space. If nothing else, there was a lot of food!
There were only Grandpa and Aunt Shen in Gu Xingfan's family. Lin Yanbai thought about it and took biscuits and tea. There was no other way. Many things could not be taken out openly now.
On the way to the compound, Lin Yanbai turned to the supply and marketing cooperative, followed Wang Shuang's path, and bought a piece of pork belly. In this way, the gift was almost complete.
Gu Xingfan kept persuading her not to take anything and just leave. Lin Yanbai wanted to roll her eyes at him. How could she do that?
Arriving at the gate of the compound, Lin Yanbai subconsciously glanced at the soldier on guard and found that it was not the handsome young man from last time. She thought that maybe he had changed shifts.
Gu Xingfan, who was always keeping an eye on her movements, couldn't help but snort heavily to express his dissatisfaction.
Lin Yanbai laughed. Why hadn't she noticed he was so jealous before? Along the way, Lin Yanbai could clearly feel the secretly prying eyes from all directions. She couldn't help but hide behind Gu Xingfan.
"Brother Fanzi!" Suddenly, a familiar voice came. Lin Yanbai looked in the direction of the voice. It was him! He was the one who went to the state-owned restaurant with Gu Xingfan. It seemed that the two of them had a very familiar relationship.
As soon as he came up, he hooked his right hand on Gu Xingfan's shoulder. Gu Xingfan shook it off helplessly and asked, "Chengzi, why did you come back so early today? Are you busy at the bureau?"
"I'm not busy, but I'm taking a day off today!"
Seeing Gu Xingfan's puzzled expression, he said with an unbearable look: "Grandpa Gu called me and said you were going to bring your partner back. It's a good thing my grandfather didn't hear that boastful tone, otherwise he would have scolded me!"
Then he turned his head and looked at Yan Bai: "Is this my sister-in-law? She looks quite familiar. I seem to have seen her somewhere before, right?" He joked. He had not forgotten that Gu Xingfan asked him to find someone a few months ago. It seemed that this was the girl! It seemed that his brother Gu was in trouble this time!
Gu Xingfan ignored him and pulled Lin Yanbai around him and continued walking forward. He was not discouraged and followed them happily.
As soon as he entered the Gu family's house, Lin Yanbai saw Grandpa Gu sitting in the middle of the sofa. He had gray hair on his temples and looked very energetic. It might be because he had been a soldier, but even in his old age, his sitting posture was still very upright.
When he saw the three of them, Grandpa Gu's eyes lit up. He quickly stood up, took two quick steps forward, and pushed Gu Xingfan away from Lin Yanbai.
Gu Xingfan: ...Confirmed, it's my real grandfather! And a real grandfather who's crazy about his grandson's wife!
"It's Yan Bai, right? Oh, you're here, but what are you bringing?" He looked at Gu Xingfan in reproach: "It's all your fault. Why didn't you stop him? He let the child buy so many things!"
Gu Xingfan:...Okay, it’s my fault!
Seeing Gu Xingfan speechless, Lin Yanbai tried hard to hold back the corners of his mouth that were about to turn up.
At this moment, Aunt Shen, who was busy in the kitchen, seemed to hear the noise, and hurriedly wiped her hands with her apron and came out.
"This must be Comrade Lin, right? I've heard Xingfan talk about you a long time ago, and seeing you today, you're truly an iconic person!"
When she said this, the other three people subconsciously looked at her, which made her blush a little.
"Aunt Chen, just call me Yan Bai!"
"Yes, yes, calling me comrade is too formal. It's better to call me Yan Bai, it's more intimate! Okay, okay, everyone, stop standing and sit down. The food will be ready soon. They are all my specialties. Let you taste my cooking skills!"
Because of Lin Yanbai's arrival, the Gu family even specially killed a chicken. Aunt Chen's cooking skills are naturally needless to say, just looking at Li Mingcheng's expression without even looking up, you can tell! Besides, after all, she has been making breakfast every day for the past few months and has a deep understanding of Aunt Chen's cooking skills.
Gu Xingfan looked at Li Mingcheng with disdain while picking up some food for Lin Yanbai. Li Mingcheng seemed to have telepathy and finally raised his head from the food.
He just caught Gu Xingfan's disgusted look and couldn't help but yelling: "You can't blame me for this. It's because Aunt Chen's cooking skills are better than the chefs in state-owned restaurants!" He complimented happily.
"Besides, sister-in-law is not an outsider, she won't laugh at me, right sister-in-law?"
"What's the big deal? I also think Auntie Chen's cooking skills are better than the chefs in state-owned restaurants. If I hadn't been mindful of my image on my first visit, I might have been even worse at eating!"
"If you like the Yanbai, eat more. Don't be polite. Auntie Chen will be happy if you enjoy your meal. Don't worry about your image!" Auntie Chen couldn't stop smiling, and she kept picking up food for her while talking.
Gu Xingfan winked at her and whispered, "Auntie Chen loves it most when people praise her cooking!"
In general, the atmosphere of this meal was very harmonious. It seemed that Gu Xingfan... should be a very suitable candidate for marriage. Lin Yanbai's heart was already shaken. If marriage was inevitable in this era, then Gu Xingfan would definitely be her first choice.
After dinner, Lin Yanbai sat for a while. When she was about to get up and say goodbye, Aunt Chen took out a photo album with characteristics of the era and asked her to come over and take a look.
Li Mingcheng joined in the fun and said, "Is this a photo of your brother when he was a child? I want to see it too, I want to see it too!" As he said that, he came closer.
Seeing the photo album in Aunt Chen's hand, Gu Xingfan could no longer maintain his composure: "Aunt Chen, what's so good about this! Oh, it's getting late, and Yan Bai should go back too. I'll go see her off!"
He spoke so quickly and urgently that even Li Mingcheng could tell that he didn't want them to see his photos, not to mention the shrewd Lin Yanbai. She was even more curious about what kind of photos could cause Gu Xingfan to lose his composure like this, and she was almost impatient!
