On the morning of the next day, Chen Fan went to the training hall and rehearsed with the band for the whole morning. After lunch, he said he had something to do and left first.
Nalan Wan'er was somewhat reluctant.
The performance was just a few days away and she didn't want anything to go wrong.
Yan Qing understood the ways of the world. He sent Chen Fan out with a smile, then came back and talked to Wan'er with a smile.
"You just went too far."
"Humph. How can that be possible?" Wan'er was a little annoyed: "If everyone is like this, how can we perform?"
Yan Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Chen Fan was not originally a member of our band, so it's a great honor for him to join us. What's more, he even wrote two songs for us."
"B…"
Nalan Wan'er opened her mouth, and seemed to know that she was not right.
But he whispered, "Just be careful if something goes wrong during the performance."
Yan Qing smiled and comforted him, "Relax. You are just too nervous."
"We have rehearsed very well these past few days. Think about it, Chen Fan's work is original, so he will have no problem singing it. As long as you don't get nervous, our performance will definitely be amazing."
"Wan'er, instead of worrying about Chen Fan, you might as well have more confidence in yourself."
Nalan Wan'er was a little speechless and lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
On the other hand, Chen Fan didn't leave deliberately to make excuses.
He did have something to do in the afternoon.
Feng Pojun drove Chen Fan to the city.
The car stopped in front of a foreign language training school.
Chen Fan glanced outside through the car window.
"Is this the right place? Is the address that Ma Xiaoshuai gave me correct?"
I took out my phone and checked the address Ma Xiaoshuai gave me, and it was indeed this place.
Chen Fan then found a phone number and called it.
The call was connected, Chen Fan talked to the other party for a few words, and then hung up.
About five minutes later, a woman dressed in a pencil skirt uniform walked out of the school.
"Here!"
Chen Fan stuck his head out and waved across the street.
The woman on the other side of the road saw Chen Fan, smiled slightly, and walked towards him.
Feng Pojun got out of the car, opened the door, helped Chen Fan take off his crutches, and helped his boss down.
The girl on the opposite side had just crossed the road and was frightened when she saw this scene.
"You...what's wrong with you?"
Chen Fan took the cane from Feng Pojun and waved with a smile.
"Long time no see, Li Jiao."
The girl standing in front of me with exquisite makeup is Li Jiao.
Luo Wenjie's girlfriend.
Li Jiao looked at Chen Fan in surprise.
"you……"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "It was just a minor accident, nothing serious."
Li Jiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Look at you like this, I'm scared to death. I thought you were beaten up."
Feng Pojun walked away alone and stood on the roadside smoking.
Chen Fan looked at Li Jiao with a smile.
"You've changed so much that I can hardly recognize you."
Li Jiao lowered her head to admire her outfit, then said jokingly, "Is it a big change? What has changed?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "She has become prettier and more mature."
Li Jiao curled her lips: "Does this mean that you weren't pretty when you were in school?"
Chen Fan waved his hands quickly: "No, no. You were very pretty when you were in school. I mean, you are even prettier now after dressing up."
"puff……"
Li Jiao couldn't help laughing.
"I won't tease you anymore."
"You are a big boss now, but you are still the same as when you were in school."
Chen Fan felt a little emotional. With Li Jiao dressed like this, he might not even recognize her if he met her on the street.
"Why do you work here?"
Li Jiao curled her lips and said, "You don't understand your old classmate at all when you say that."
"I studied at the Foreign Languages College in university. After graduation, I was looking for a job, but I couldn't find a suitable one, so of course I came here to work first."
Chen Fan was stunned. To be honest, he had long forgotten which foreign language college these girls in Dormitory 326 studied at.
By the way, it was my senior sister Xu Qiuci who helped to set up the 326 dormitory.
After graduation, Xu Qiuci did not engage in his brother's professional work. Instead, he started working as an assistant in his own real estate company.
"What are you thinking about? You can be distracted even when chatting with a beautiful woman." Li Jiao couldn't help but laugh and joked.
Chen Fan smiled bitterly: "Nothing, just reminded me of when we were in school."
"Tsk! What's the point of thinking about that? When we were in school, both you and Liu Qianqian liked you. But you didn't even give them any chance. It's really discouraging."
Li Jiao looked very hurt, which made Chen Fan feel a little embarrassed.
"Why bring up the past? By the way, how are you doing now? Is your work going well?"
Li Jiao raised her hand to tidy up her hair and said casually.
"It's OK. The treatment is not that great, but the salary is neither high nor low. At least it's just enough to cover my food and clothing every month."
"By the way, why did you suddenly think of calling me today?"
Li Jiao smiled and joked: "Why? Are you thinking about it?"
Chen Fan quickly waved his hands: "Stop it, it's best not to make such jokes."
"Look at how nervous you are. Can I really eat you?"
Li Jiao giggled: "If I didn't know you, I wouldn't believe that you are a big boss."
Chen Fan ignored the other party's words and said softly, "Tomorrow is the day when Brother Jie is released from prison."
The smile on Li Jiao's face froze for a moment, then gradually returned to calm.
"Oh, I almost forgot about it."
"Time flies so fast. Ten months have already passed in the blink of an eye."
Chen Fan smiled bitterly: "Faster? For Brother Jie, these ten months must have been like a year."
"I came to see you just to ask if you have time tomorrow. Do you want me to pick you up and go pick up Brother Jie from prison?"
Li Jiao was silent, looking somewhat embarrassed.
"Tomorrow... I may not have time."
"We are very busy here, and the class schedule is very tight. Especially in the last few days of summer vacation, we have to prepare for the last exam for students in the tutoring class. As a teacher... we can't just take leave casually."
Li Jiao raised her head and looked at Chen Fan.
"I'm sorry, Chen Fan, I may not be able to go tomorrow."
Chen Fan nodded to show his understanding.
"It's okay. If you're busy, you can go pick him up with Xiao Shuai and the others tomorrow. Then we can pick up Brother Jie and get together."
Li Jiao nodded: "Yes. I will call him tomorrow."
After saying this, Li Jiao lowered her head and glanced at the watch on her hand.
"Sorry. Class is over. I have to go back now."
"Then you should hurry up and go to class. You are leaving too."
"Thank you for coming to see..."
Li Jiao smiled and waved, then crossed the road and ran into the school.
Only after watching the other person disappear did Chen Fan withdraw his gaze.
Feng Pojun walked over quickly.
"Boss, shall we go back?"
Chen Fan sighed.
For some reason, he felt something was not right when he saw Li Jiao's expression just now.
Why did Li Jiao seem not excited at all when Jack was mentioned just now?
She even forgot the day Jack was released from prison?
I hope you're overthinking it.
