Su Wan'er glared at him, her eyes practically murderous!
"Miss Su, I haven't done anything to offend you, have I?"
Lin Fan gave a wry smile.
"A man's words are a liar's mouth!"
"You asked me to help out at the tea factory, and I thought it was some kind of good job."
Su Wan'er said aggrievedly, "I never expected that I would still be made to do hard labor."
"Oh? Our beautiful Su is really going to the construction site to carry bricks?"
Lin Fan glanced at Dai Lili.
"I wouldn't dare to order Miss Su around; she insisted on doing the work herself."
"I couldn't persuade her no matter what I said!"
Dai Lili was caught in the crossfire and quickly spread her hands to explain.
When Su Wan'er first went to the tea factory, she was full of fighting spirit.
She's always eager to do any kind of work!
However, after several truckloads of cement were pushed down, Miss Su almost fell into a coma.
Dai Lili dared not let her work anymore, so she told her to rest and handed her water.
"It seems that Miss Su is still too delicate."
Lin Fan sighed and said, "Look at Dai Lili, she didn't say anything."
Speaking of which, Dai Lili's skin was also tanned red, clearly indicating that she had been doing hard labor as well.
"I……"
Su Wan'er pouted, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
"Oh? You're giving me special treatment now?"
Chen Lingfeng, this behemoth, plopped down in front of Lin Fan.
Without any hesitation, he picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a piece of meat, and put it in his mouth.
Hou Ming, however, hung his head, looking like a wilted eggplant.
"Monkey, have you lost your soul?"
Lin Fan asked, puzzled.
"Get lost!"
Hou Ming looked up and glared at Lin Fan, not in the mood to talk to him.
He still looked sullen.
What's wrong with him?
Lin Fan was a little worried, so he turned to ask Chen Lingfeng, who had sat down next to him.
"What else can it be? He's lovesick."
Chen Lingfeng stuffed piece after piece of braised pork into his mouth, mumbling, "Liu Laosan is biased, giving you special treatment."
"You know nothing!"
Hou Ming felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, his grievances only amplified.
That resentful look in his eyes was like someone who had been gang-raped by several strong men.
"Eat slowly, leave a couple of pieces for others."
Lin Fan reached out and nudged Chen Lingfeng before moving closer to Hou Ming, asking, "Missing Reporter Wang?"
"None of your business!"
Hou Ming raised his head and said.
"If you miss her, then confess your feelings to her."
"You're dressed like Lin Daiyu, who are you trying to impress?"
Lin Fan mocked him mercilessly.
"I...I'm afraid she'll reject me."
Hou Ming sighed softly.
"What's wrong with that? Just say you like it!"
Where did your competitive spirit from your school days go?
Lin Fan slapped him hard on the back. "What's wrong? Getting more timid as you get older?"
"She is so outstanding and so beautiful."
"I'm in contact with either successful people or bigwigs from all walks of life..."
"If I confess my feelings and get rejected, how awkward would it be if we met again?"
Hou Ming picked up some greens with his chopsticks and put them in his mouth, but they tasted like nothing at all.
"You've been through this before, why are you worrying about these useless things?"
Lin Fan spoke frankly, "When it comes to relationships, the longer you drag it out, the worse it is."
Once this thin veil is broken, things might take a turn for the better, and a miracle might happen.
Anyway, it's much better than you being stuck here, indecisive and hopelessly in love.
"But what if she refuses?"
Hou Ming hesitated and said, "It would be so embarrassing if we failed. I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to be friends anymore."
The more I talked, the more frustrated I became.
His head was practically buried in the bowl.
Seeing his dejected appearance, the two ladies next to him covered their mouths and chuckled.
"Monkey, you're so afraid of everything, where's your manly demeanor?"
"If you like someone, go for it. So what if you get rejected? You can always start over."
"What kind of skill is it if you don't even dare to confess your feelings?"
Lin Fan looked at him with a disappointed expression, tapped the table, trying to cheer him up, "Don't be a coward, just like when you switched jobs, muster up your courage."
Anyway, you still have Chen Lingfeng to keep you company!
"Stop...don't drag me into this."
Chen Lingfeng was eating when he immediately looked up and glared at him. "If I had known he was such a coward, I wouldn't have come with him. I feel ashamed."
He's not like a man at all!
Their words and actions were all designed to incite and undermine him.
"Who says I'm not a man?"
Hou Ming was immediately displeased.
He looked up and glared fiercely at the two of them.
"Hey, Monkey King, you've really shown your strength?"
"Then do you dare to confess your feelings to her right now?"
Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Lin Fan immediately pressed his advantage.
"Yeah... If you're not convinced, then prove it to us."
Chen Lingfeng wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth and looked at him defiantly.
"I'll confess then! Who's afraid of who!"
Hou Ming was completely enraged by the two of them.
He slammed his hands on the table, making the bowls and chopsticks rattle.
Then, he took out his phone from his pocket, looking like he was ready to go all out.
"There's a chance!"
Lin Fan and Chen Lingfeng exchanged a quick glance.
Hou Ming was so excited that his fingers were almost unresponsive, and he was still trembling as he searched for that familiar name.
He swallowed hard a few times to hide his unease.
"come on!"
Su Wan'er made a gesture, taking the opportunity to encourage him.
Dai Lili was eating and watching the commotion from the side.
