Ruan Jiu, who lives just a wall away, is a martial arts practitioner, so having sharp hearing and eyesight is not a problem for him.
Listening to Ling Heng skillfully shifting the blame next door, I twitched the corner of my mouth, used my hands as a pillow, and lay down with my legs crossed, muttering to myself.
Fan Xiaofan was full of doubt about Shi Lingheng's words.
However, there seems to be no need to expose it.
After Fan's father finished packing his luggage, he saw Fan Xiaofan talking to the young man next to him. He asked a few questions and, upon discovering that they were also going to Qingcheng, remarked on the coincidence.
Liu Fang and Gu Wenyan exchanged a glance. They had followed Fan Xiaofan and had seen Shi Lingheng before. Even if they didn't recognize him at first, they guessed it from Xiaofan's conversation with him.
Shi Lingheng had been in Qingcheng and had never returned to Beidu, so why did he suddenly come back this time?
Moreover, when they ambushed Qing Lengyue that day, their people also reported discovering the whereabouts of another group of people. Now that I think about it, it was probably them.
It seems that Mr. Shi really cares about Xiao Fan.
However, based on their observations, Xiao Fan doesn't seem to have any romantic feelings. Her attention seems to be more focused on her studies. Besides, Xiao Fan is still young, so these matters of the heart should be considered when she's older.
Thus, the two bodyguards, seemingly unintentionally, blocked Shi Lingheng's gaze from falling on Fan Xiaofan...
Really, it didn't feel forced at all...
At least Fan Xiaofan didn't notice.
As for Shi Lingheng, well, who cares... right...?
Meanwhile, Fan Xiaofan was twirling a mechanical pencil in his hand, leaning against the wall, his body bent over as he pondered something.
While at the Xiangyang Brigade, even though it was supposed to be a rest day, Fan Xiaofan couldn't help but ponder the broken things he saw. It was an innate habit. So he started thinking about telephones. Although the current telephones couldn't function as mobile phones because signal base stations hadn't been established, it was still possible to improve the existing telephones, making the call quality clearer and reducing the repetitions when dialing.
She leaned against the window, jotting down any inspiration that came to her mind.
When there are very few usable items, you must look for alternatives.
Meanwhile, Shi Lingheng lay on the bed opposite Fan Xiaofan, his lazy appearance quite different from when he was in the Xiangyang Brigade.
He would occasionally glance at Fan Xiaofan under the light reflected through the window, and he felt a sense of peace and tranquility, much like the slow, unhurried pace of the train, a feeling that was almost imperceptible in his eyes.
Not long after, he heard Fan Xiaofan yawn sweetly. He looked up and saw the girl rubbing her eyes, seemingly sleepy. She subconsciously put the notebook in her bag and then curled up to sleep.
He couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Fan Xiaofan's father, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, had already fallen asleep. Liu Fang and Gu Wenyan continued to take turns resting, ensuring that one of them kept an eye on Fan Xiaofan's situation. Naturally, they noticed Shi Lingheng.
Hmph, that big bad wolf eyeing their cabbage is a dangerous element too. Gu Wenyan simply got off the top bunk and started wandering around the corridor. Shi Lingheng realized that this guy was doing it on purpose...
Gu Wenyan glanced at Fan Xiaofan, who was sleeping soundly beside him, then turned to Shi Lingheng with a fierce look, lowering his voice: "Sent-down youths shouldn't be here now..."
Shi Lingheng: "..."
He crossed his arms and found a comfortable position on the lower bunk, raised an eyebrow and said, "Aren't you tired of walking around like this? And won't you disturb his rest?"
Gu Wenyan froze for a moment.
