Otherwise, on such a winding and difficult mountain road, people are very likely to get carsick if they are hungry.
Upon arriving at the research institute, Fan Xiaofan was about to get out of the car, but Shi Lingheng stopped her, saying with a smile, "You haven't had a break in a while. Isn't today Sunday?"
Although Engineer Wang was facing forward with a serious expression, his ears were ringing quite loudly; he was listening to gossip...
In the end, Fan Xiaofan did not return to the research institute.
She has a bag of candy in her pocket right now, and Shi Lingheng must have prepared other goodies as well. Fan Xiaofan won't admit it, though, but she's really craving something when she's hungry.
Shi Lingheng said to Fan Xiaofan, "Wait here, my car is on the other side."
Fan Xiaofan asked, puzzled, "Is it far? Can't I go with you?"
Shi Lingheng smiled and shook his head, then reached out and patted her little head, saying, "Alright, you just wait here..."
Then he looked at Liu Fang and Gu Wenyan, gesturing for Liu Fang to come over. Liu Fang was a little puzzled, but when she went over, she saw that Shi Lingheng was no longer the easygoing person he had been just moments before. Instead, he looked like he had encountered some major problem that he couldn't solve, his brows furrowed, and he said, "Xiao Fan's foot is injured..."
Liu Fang's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively wanted to look over, but Shi Lingheng stopped her: "Don't go looking. Xiao Fan hasn't said anything, she probably doesn't want everyone to worry. When I take her to get something to eat later, could you please ask Grandma Fan to prepare some disinfectant?"
Fan Xiaofan peeked out from the other side, somewhat puzzled as to what Shi Lingheng and Liu Fang were whispering about.
He popped another candy into his mouth, sighed, and, never one to miss a good spectacle, said, "Those two don't look too good. Did they have a fight behind my back?"
Gu Wenyan rolled his eyes: "Don't think nonsense. Liu Fang and I are with you every step of the way. When did we fight? Fighting will get us punished..."
Fan Xiaofan chuckled.
Liu Fang walked over and unconsciously went to Fan Xiaofan's side. Every time Fan Xiaofan moved, she almost couldn't resist pressing her down to make her behave...
Now I finally understand why Shi Lingheng said he was going to get the car and didn't let Fan Xiaofan go with him.
Hmph, at least he's considerate...
But this only makes her, a woman, seem less capable than him!
Thinking about this, I felt a little discouraged. I must not do this again next time...
Shi Lingheng originally drove to the research institute to find Fan Xiaofan, but when Fan Xiaofan wasn't there, he picked up someone and took him to the village. He was hoping to hitch a ride and have a chance to get closer to Xiaofan, so he parked his car not far away.
The car beeped twice, and Fan Xiaofan got into the car as if nothing had happened, leaving Liu Fang behind in a daze. She couldn't help but sigh, realizing that if Shi Lingheng hadn't reminded her, she really wouldn't have noticed that Xiaofan's foot was injured.
Liu Fang was sometimes very curious about Xiao Fan. Sometimes she felt that Xiao Fan couldn't endure any hardship and was too delicate. But sometimes she would actually suffer, but she would not say a word, not wanting others to worry about her.
Fan Xiaofan had no idea that her foot injury, which she thought she had concealed very well, had actually been discovered, and that her upcoming schedule had already been arranged.
