Factory Director Wu pulled at his hair, looking exasperated. "You know what this mess is like, what can I do? I'm caught in the middle no matter what I do."
Fan Xiaofan noticed that Gu Wenyan's hands were clenching even tighter when Director Wu mentioned this. She blinked, tugged at Gu Wenyan, who paused for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"
She pointed to a corner, gesturing for them to talk there.
As if realizing that Fan Xiaofan had something to say to Gu Wenyan, the others also moved a little further away.
Fan Xiaofan scratched her head. To be honest, she wasn't very good at psychological counseling. People who were good at this usually had high emotional intelligence and a high capacity for empathy and compassion.
"that……"
For a moment, she didn't know how to start the conversation.
Gu Wenyan waited for a long time, but Fan Xiaofan didn't speak. Seeing her hesitant expression, he suddenly realized: "Is it because something is wrong with me?"
Fan Xiaofan nodded immediately and said, "If there are any problems, we can ask someone for help. We're friends, aren't we?"
The girl had a serious, earnest expression, and she seemed genuinely sincere.
friend?
The two words hovered in Gu Wenyan's throat for a moment, then he couldn't help but chuckle softly and nodded: "Thank you, but it's alright, I can handle it myself."
Upon hearing this, Fan Xiaofan nodded, tiptoed, and patted Gu Wenyan on the shoulder, first with a serious expression, "Keep it up, young man..."
Then I couldn't help but laugh out loud again.
Gu Wenyan shook his head with amusement.
Fan Xiaofan waved her paw. Since Gu Wenyan said he could handle it, she decided not to meddle and instead check on everyone's mother's research progress...
Liu Fang appeared beside Gu Wenyan at some point, and like him, her gaze fell on Fan Xiaofan in the distance. She said, "Isn't she a very cute little sister?"
Gu Wenyan nodded, then lowered his head and murmured softly, "If my sister were still alive, she would probably be this age by now..."
Liu Fang patted him: "Didn't you say that you promised your sister you would live well, carrying on her legacy?"

Mr. Lin quickly devised a smokescreen strategy to divert attention from Fan Xiaofan.
It is believed that an elderly person who has achieved great things is more likely to convince people that the elderly person is their role model than a young girl.
Under the arrangement of Mr. Lin and others, the news was spread quietly, creating a target they needed.
The washing machine, refrigerator, multi-speed bicycle, and so on are all the result of the old man's years of dedicated research. However, the old man is so engrossed in his research that he usually keeps them in his special, secluded residence unless absolutely necessary, and does not want them to be seen by others.
The image of such a reclusive master is, frankly, more believable than the fact that all of this was done by an unknown girl.
Although the latter is actually true.
Mr. Lin breathed a sigh of relief after arranging things. This was the first step that had been completed. However, he also needed to pay attention to any unusual situations around Xiao Fan, so Gu Wenyan's strange behavior was also reported to him.
Betrayal can never be prevented; all that can be done is to constantly monitor the condition of those protecting Fan Xiaofan.
Mr. Lin immediately and cautiously retrieved information about Gu Wenyan. After reading it, he called the man over. It wasn't that he suspected him, but rather that Gu Wenyan was currently affected by his emotions. Although he could control himself, he was still easily taken advantage of.
