Back at the medical hall.
Song Yue was slowly cleaning.
Seeing Lin Fan return, she stepped forward and asked, "Xiao Fan, have you eaten?"
"Not yet. I'm now inspired by Secretary Tian's spirit of dedicating himself to the people. I serve the people without seeking reward and take nothing from them. How could I eat the people's food?"
As Lin Fan said this, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Yueyue Jie, are you hot?"
Hearing this, Song Yue immediately hit Lin Fan with a broom: "If you have the ability, go bother your sister-in-law. You just take your anger out on me all day!"
Lin Fan smiled triumphantly: "It's like you don't like it."
Song Yue rolled her eyes at him: "Don't play that game. Do you have someone like you?"
Lin Fan shrugged and was about to go eat when he heard Song Yue say again: "Your phone has been ringing several times, all from the same number, but there's no name saved. Go see what's going on."
"Got it." Lin Fan replied, a hint of confusion in his mind: "Who could it be?"
Going upstairs to the living room, Lin Fan picked up his phone and saw three missed calls and one unread message: "It's Jin Peng, why aren't you answering?"
"Jin Peng?"
Lin Fan thought for a moment and suddenly remembered a young man with a round face, looking like a white steamed bun.
Song Yue walked up behind Lin Fan and asked, "Who called?"
Lin Fan smiled and replied, "Jin Peng, that little fatty from our class. Do you remember him?"
Song Yue pursed her lips and smiled, "It's him. I remember you two got along well back then."
Lin Fan nodded: "Yes, it's him. I'll ask him what's up. It's been many years since we last saw each other."
As he spoke, Lin Fan had already pressed the call-back button.
Ring, ring, ring!
After three rings, the call connected normally.
"Hello, is this Jin Peng?"
Lin Fan's voice was filled with joy.
"Lin Fan!"
Jin Peng shouted excitedly, "Old classmate, long time no see! When you were bedridden, I even visited you!"
"My sister-in-law told me."
Lin Fan lied.
Xia Xue hadn't mentioned it to him, but since the other party brought it up, he couldn't say he didn't know.
After catching up for a while, Jin Peng suddenly got angry: "Xiao Fan, I saw Zhang Liang scolding you in the class group, which is how I knew you were awake."
"Zhang Liang scolded me?"
Lin Fan immediately understood what was going on.
He couldn't help but laugh.
So, if he didn't help, they turned against him!
"Don't worry about this. Let him say whatever he wants."
When it came to Zhang Liang, Lin Fan's tone was full of disdain.
Jin Peng "mm-hmm"ed twice: "I was just upset. He also said you've hooked up with a rich woman and are being a kept man for the boss of Xinghe Group."
"Xiao Fan, I know you're not that kind of person."
Lin Fan took a sharp breath, angered.
Damn it!
"I didn't bother with you last time you caused trouble in my medical hall, and I didn't expect you to ruin my reputation everywhere!"
Lin Fan pondered for a moment, then said, "Forget it, there will be a day when the truth comes out."
"The clear will clear itself, the turbid will remain turbid!"
Jin Peng echoed, then whispered, "Xiao Fan, there's a class reunion tonight. It's the end of the year, and everyone's back. I see many people in the group have believed it.
"Why don't you come and explain it to them yourself?"
Lin Fan chuckled: "There's no need to explain."
Jin Peng sighed softly and advised, "It's mainly because I'm so angry.
"You don't know how unpleasant his words were.
"Really, if you didn't do it, then clarify things clearly, so that it doesn't spread from one to ten, and then from ten to a hundred, becoming a big scandal."
Lin Fan thought for a moment and asked, "Did you speak up for me?"
"Mm." Jin Peng's tone was full of dejection, "I didn't expect Zhang Liang to scold me too, saying that both of us are kept men for rich women."
Lin Fan was furious: "I can overlook him scolding me, but if he scolds you too, then I can't let him get away with it."
"That little brat, let's see how I deal with him!"
"Where is the reunion tonight, and at what time?"
After Lin Fan asked, Jin Peng happily replied, "It's at the Old Captain Restaurant by Shimen Town, around 7 PM. I'll tell them in the group."
"Alright."
Lin Fan agreed, and Jin Peng hung up.
"Xiao Fan, what's wrong?"
Song Yue didn't understand their conversation but knew Lin Fan was very angry.
"There's a class reunion tonight. Yueyue Jie, let's go together."
"What am I going for?"
Song Yue felt a little insecure.
Class reunions, aren't they for those who are doing well and sought after, while those who aren't doing well can only be background characters!
She had bad luck with men, and now her husband was dead, raising a child alone. How could she be willing to face scornful looks?
Lin Fan scratched his head and asked, "Why not go?"
"I'll tell you..."
Song Yue told him her thoughts.
Lin Fan laughed heartily: "So you're afraid of that. Don't worry when I'm here!"
Despite Lin Fan's persuasion, Song Yue still refused.
Lin Fan sighed helplessly, then thought for a moment and suddenly had a good idea.
He hurried downstairs, went into the yard, and called Wang Ying.
"Little devil, you finally remembered me!"
Wang Ying's tone was teasing, with no hint of blame towards Lin Fan.
She was busy with work and knew Lin Fan was just as busy.
As an understanding woman, she would never blame her lover for being busy.
However, she would never tolerate her lover using work as an excuse to brush her off.
Lin Fan didn't engage with that topic but directly asked, "Wang Ying Jie, are you free tonight?"
Wang Ying paused and retorted, "What, you're thinking of me already?"
"No." Lin Fan's words came out quickly: "I have a class reunion tonight, around 7 PM. I want you to go with me."
"Is that so? Then okay, I'll be off work soon."
Wang Ying giggled and added, "I have lots and lots of time tonight, all for you, little devil!"
Lin Fan laughed heartily: "I think it's you who misses me terribly!"
"Yes!" Wang Ying admitted without hesitation, "I miss you so much I toss and turn, lose my appetite, and even my fertile window has extended!"
Hearing this, Lin Fan's spirits soared: "I love you to death, my little Yingying. Alright, that's it for now. I'll come find you later."
"Where should we meet?"
"Let's meet at Fulai Plaza on the south side of town."
After Lin Fan finished speaking, he kissed the receiver and hung up.
He returned to the second floor, changed his clothes, instructed Song Yue a few times, and then left the medical hall.
