"Where is Xiao Chen's hometown?"
"How many people are there in your family?"
"Are your parents okay? What did you do before?"
"mom……"
While eating, Dingdian really couldn't stand his mother's prying.
"We're eating, why are you asking so many questions?"
Ding Ning, his younger brother, smiled and said, "Mom, your questions are more detailed than the police station's household registration check."
Mother Ding glared at the two children fiercely.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just chatting with you. You can learn more about Xiao Chen."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "It's okay. I'd like to chat with Auntie."
"Little Chen is sensible. Come, eat more."
"Let Dingdian tell me what you like to eat next time, and I'll prepare it for you in advance when you come home next time."
Dingdian sat beside him depressed, feeling a little embarrassed and his ears were burning.
Chen Fan, on the other hand, was smiling as if nothing had happened.
To be honest, she really admires Chen Fan.
This guy's acting was so realistic from the moment he walked in.
Not only did he deceive his parents, but he also made his mother smile happily.
Instead, Dingdian felt like an outsider.
After dinner, Dingdian went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, but was kicked out by my mother.
"Don't make trouble here."
"There are washed apples over there. Bring them to Xiao Chen and talk to him in the living room."
"Mom, it's not necessary, right?"
"Kid, what are you talking about! This is the first time he comes to your house, you have to treat him well."
Dingdian was helplessly driven out of the kitchen, and then a washed fruit plate was brought over.
The younger brother went to the study to play computer, while Dingdian and Chen Fan sat in the living room staring at each other, feeling a little awkward.
"Do you want an apple? I'll peel one for you?"
Chen Fan nodded.
"It's a rare opportunity to enjoy your service, so of course I have to eat."
"you……"
Dingdian was so angry that he almost grabbed an apple and threw it over.
This guy is addicted to acting.
After dinner, I chatted with Ding's mother for another half an hour, glancing at the time.
"Mom, it's getting late. We should go back."
Dingdian wanted to take Chen Fan away quickly.
Mother Ding stood up quickly and said, "I'll prepare some food for you. Wait for me to pack it for you and take it back to eat."
"Oh, that's not necessary. I can buy it whenever I want."
"Kid, can the ones you buy outside be the same as the ones I make for you?"
"Prepare one portion for Xiao Chen as well. Food outside is unhygienic, so you should eat less."
"Just wait, it will be ready soon."
“Dot dot…dot dot!”
At this time, my father's voice came from the bedroom.
Dingdian ran over quickly.
"Dad, you're looking for me?"
"You guys want to leave?"
"Yeah. It's getting late. I have to go to work tomorrow."
"I want to talk to Xiao Chen alone for a few more words."
Ding Dian turned his head to look at Chen Fan, who smiled and nodded.
"Go and help Auntie prepare something. I'll talk to Uncle."
Dingdian nodded obediently, turned around and walked out.
Chen Fan entered the room and closed the door gently.
"Uncle, do you have something to tell me?"
Dad Ding, lying on the bed, looked at Chen Fan with a smile.
"For several years, I have been urging this girl to find a partner, but she just won't listen."
"I didn't expect that before leaving, you actually brought someone back to me."
Chen Fan quickly said, "Uncle, don't think like that. Technology is so advanced now, there is always a way. Being alive is better than anything else."
"How about we go to another big hospital tomorrow?"
Father Ding shook his head: "It's useless. Don't bother. I know my own situation well."
"Xiao Chen, I want to talk to you alone."
"Uncle, you talk, I'm listening."
"You and my family are not in a relationship, right?"
Chen Fan: “…”
Father Ding looked at Chen Fan with a smile, "She asked you to come here to help, right? She wanted me to feel more at ease before I leave. Right?"
Chen Fan originally wanted to cover it up, but seeing the sincere look on the other party's face, he finally compromised.
"Uncle, did you see that?"
"It seems that my acting skills are not up to par."
Dad Ding coughed a few times and then shook his head.
"It's none of your business. I know my own child well."
"I had always refused to find a partner, but a few days ago I suddenly said I was dating someone. I felt something was wrong..."
"Seeing you today, I have confirmed my thoughts."
"This kid... he wants me to leave without regrets."
Chen Fan was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Uncle, actually..."
"I don't blame you. You're both good kids. I can see that. You're all doing this for my own good."
Father Ding looked at Chen Fan with a smile, "So I'm not angry. On the contrary, I'm very happy that you can come back to see me tonight."
Chen Fan sighed inwardly, feeling a little amused and helpless.
"Uncle, how did you figure that out?"
Father Ding pointed at the desk next to him and motioned Chen Fan to help open the drawer.
Chen Fan opened the drawer and found an old-fashioned red notebook inside. It's the plastic leather kind.
"Help me open it..."
Chen Fan opened his notebook suspiciously, only to find that it was filled with all kinds of briefings and newspapers...
Without exception, all of these newspapers reported news about the Ruofan Group.
Most importantly, the photos attached above all have some traces of the figure.
The time span was very long, and Chen Fan even saw photos of himself when he just started his business a few years ago.
These newspapers include reports from Yunhai’s local newspapers as well as reports from major news outlets across the country.
There are many reports that even Chen Fan has never seen.
Chen Fan understood.
This is a father's pride and testimony to his daughter's career success.
So I carefully bought all the newspapers with photos of my daughter one by one, cut them out, and kept them carefully.
"Actually, I felt like you looked familiar when you walked into the room."
"And when you introduced yourself, I remembered..."
"You're not my daughter's boyfriend, you're her boss, right?"
Chen Fan smiled bitterly, put away the notebook in front of him, and nodded.
"Uncle, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lied to you."
But Dad Ding shook his head.
"I don't blame you. On the contrary, I'm grateful that you guys came back to see me."
"My daughter is so willful that she even dragged her boss to act with her..."
At this point, Dad Ding gave a helpless smile.
"As a boss, you are still willing to play around with her, which just shows that you two have a good relationship."
"So, I'm glad to meet you."
"I understand what this kid did. So don't tell Diandian about this. It's okay between you and me."
Chen Fan nodded and agreed.
"The reason I brought this up is actually to express my gratitude to you."
"Over the years, ever since my daughter Diandian started her business with you, every time she came home, she would say how great our boss is and how outstanding he is. As a father, I can see that she worships and trusts you wholeheartedly..."
"Growing up, I've never seen my daughter idolize anyone."
"As a dying man, I have something to ask of you."
"If possible... please take good care of her..."
Chen Fan just felt his eyes a little sore.
Young people think they are smart, but they don't understand the thinking of their elders at all.
As a father, how could he not understand his own daughter?
Let alone anything else, the newspaper briefings collected in this notebook alone...behind them is a father's deep love for his daughter.
"Uncle, I promise you."
Dad Ding grinned and breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had let go of the biggest worry in his heart.
"This way, I can rest assured...rest assured..."
