Su Ruchu's report was published in the newspaper very quickly.
I don’t know if it’s because of Chen Fan, but the newspaper gave this new article a front-page headline as its first article.
As soon as the news appeared in the newspaper, it became a hot topic and aroused widespread heated discussion among the general public in Yunhai.
There are several reasons why this report became popular.
First, Su Ruochu's report was too detailed.
From on-site investigations to interviews with passengers, station staff, and people who lost their wallets, to reporters personally seeing pickpockets stealing on the train, no one on the train dared to speak up.
Pickpockets are rampant and arrogant, and have long formed an organized criminal activity.
Of course there is a second reason, which is that the people in Yunhai have long been disgusted with the group of pickpockets at this station.
In fact, Yunhai had organized several large-scale anti-pickpocket operations before, but these guys were just like rats. Even if they were caught, they would be locked up for a while and then released.
Others, because they did not have local household registration, were repatriated to their hometowns at a cost, but after a while, they returned on their own.
If this continues, even the police will have a headache.
This report once again sparked heated discussion and public resentment, with the police being criticized for their inaction.
There was no other way. Under pressure, the police immediately organized a special meeting and launched a vigorous anti-pickpocketing operation.
In a few days, dozens of thieves were caught, which drew applause from the crowd.
The police's reputation was restored, the newspaper gained fame, and Su Ruchu also became famous overnight.
This is what a true conscientious journalist is like, good reporting, good news.
For this reason, the leaders of Yunhai Newspaper Group held a special meeting to praise this news, saying that this article was written with depth and insight, and this is what a good journalist who serves the people should be like.
Yunhai Daily also held a special meeting to commend Su Ruchu, doubling his bonus for that month and also issuing him a medal.
Although this was probably due to Chen Fan's favor, Su Ruchu was still very happy to receive a reward for her first time writing a news article.
Being able to help people through her reporting, she is once again proud and honored for choosing this profession.
Chen Fan even prepared a large table of food, and the two of them celebrated at home.
…
A villa on the outskirts of Yunhai.
Bai Ruoxue came back from outside, handed her coat to the nanny, then quickly went upstairs to the study on the second floor.
I knocked on the door gently, heard some noise coming from inside, then opened the door and went in.
On the balcony inside the house, a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe was leisurely making tea.
"Second uncle."
Bai Ruoxue walked over and sat down cross-legged across the coffee table.
"Uncle, why did you come here in person?"
Bai Banshan smiled and picked up the purple clay teapot, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Bai Ruoxue.
"Take a taste. This is new tea just picked this year. How does it taste?"
Bai Ruoxue took it, first brought it to her nose to smell it, and then took a sip.
“Good tea. Whether it’s the timing of picking or the temperature of roasting, it’s all professional.”
"Uncle, this must have been made by the master chef you asked me to find, right?"
Second Uncle Bai Banshan chuckled and poured another glass for Bai Ruoxue.
He put down the purple clay teapot and then slowly spoke.
"I heard that Celadon is edible now?"
Bai Ruoxue nodded.
"I went to see Celadon. She did eat it."
"What did you eat?"
"Beef ramen, scallion pancakes, and preserved egg and lean meat porridge."
Bai Banshan: “…”
Bai Ruoxue also smiled bitterly.
"Yes. All of them are night snacks."
Bai Banshan frowned and asked, "Did Chen Fan give her food?"
"right."
"I asked Qingci, she just had her second period of illness at the time and she didn't remember what happened at all. But she said Chen Fan didn't force her to eat."
Having said that, Bai Ruoxue explained again.
"But in the past two days, she has tried other foods and still has no appetite."
"Uncle, is it really because of Chen Fan?"
Bai Banshan said with emotion: "How long will it take for the celadon to be delivered this time? Less than a month. We can eat now."
"The crazy Taoist priest is truly amazing."
Bai Ruoxue smiled bitterly: "Uncle, it's not that exaggerated. I just took a few bites..."
Bai Banshan said seriously, "You can't even taste it in front of the Celadon."
Bai Ruoxue remained silent. This was indeed true.
What's more, the food Chen Fan gave her was the food she used to disdain.
With her sister's chaste nature, Bai Ruoxue really couldn't figure out what kind of magic Chen Fan had used to make her try this thing.
Bai Banshan slowly opened his mouth.
"I came here this time because I wanted to see Chen Fan up close."
Bai Ruoxue was stunned: "You want to meet Chen Fan?"
Bai Banshan shook his head: "It's not time yet. I plan to observe this situation in secret for the time being."
"No matter what, he must be the son-in-law of our Bai family."
Bai Ruoxue hesitated for a moment.
"Uncle, the family... has already obtained the marriage certificate."
"Oh? When did it happen?"
"Just a month ago."
"Which family is the girl from?"
Bai Ruoxue smiled bitterly: "She is just an ordinary girl from a wealthy family. They were classmates in high school."
Bai Banshan was obviously stunned, then he smiled and said, "I didn't expect that he is such a lovesick person."
"It's okay. We've got the marriage certificate. Just leave now."
"He is a businessman, and he should know very well how difficult it is to climb up after a business reaches a bottleneck."
"At this time, a strong ally will have a multiplier effect on his career."
Bai Ruoxue, however, was not very confident.
"Uncle, I don't think you know Chen Fan very well. How can I describe his personality?"
"He is very infatuated. Especially towards his current wife, I think he is almost infatuated to an extent that is incomprehensible."
"Oh? How do you mean?"
Bai Ruoxue organized her words and explained, "In my opinion, he has never lacked women around him. Especially high-quality women."
"Any one of these women is more suitable for him than his current wife."
"For example, he and the big star Wen Wan. If he really chooses Wen Wan, at least it will be good for his career. If he chooses a wealthy family, at least they can form a strong alliance... If he chooses a girl from an official family, at least his career will have a background to protect him..."
"But this guy chose an ordinary girl with no background at all."
"Moreover, their relationship started in high school, and they were in a year of college and had a three-year relationship. Their relationship was not affected at all."
"Chen Fan really has an inexplicable love for this girl."
Bai Banshan listened silently and suddenly asked.
"What do you think the chances are that your sister will be able to take him down?"
Bai Ruoxue pondered for a few seconds.
“Less than 30%.”
Bai Banshan nodded slowly.
"If Chen Fan's current wife divorces him, will Qingci's chances increase?"
Bai Ruoxue shook her head.
"They...shouldn't get divorced?"
"And what if this girl disappears?"
Bai Ruoxue's expression changed drastically in an instant.
"Uncle, you are not planning to..."
