My sisters drove me away, and now they are crying and begging for my forgiveness?

Today was also the fastest day Lin An had spent here, from dawn to dusk. Finally, he solved the last problem. Lin An slumped in the chair, sweating profusely.

Director Yu was so excited that he brought a palm-sized drone to the training ground. After some operation, the drone did not have any problems.

It was as if what happened to Yu Xi had never happened. She admired and worshipped him, almost kneeling down to him.

"Lin An, you have made the greatest contribution to the rapid development of the stealth drone. Tell me, what do you want?"

"No need." Lin An said calmly, "Just follow the way we cooperate. Besides, please send someone to take me back, now, immediately, right away."

Director Yu frowned and said, "It's almost noon. Let's eat first before leaving."

Lin An smiled: "It's better for everyone to leave early."

Director Yu sighed and waved his hand: "Go back and pack your things. Meet at the gate in half an hour."

"No need to pack. I didn't bring any luggage to begin with, and I'm wearing the same clothes I wore when I got here. I'll be waiting at the door. Please hurry up."

Director Yu didn't force it anymore.

He stood at the door for a while, and a figure walked in the distance: "Is it you?"

When Lin An saw Du Miao, surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Well, Director Yu asked me to take you back. Let's go now." Du Miao didn't say much and led Lin An to the parking lot.

After opening the car door, Lin An got into the trunk and Du Miao started the car. After inspection, the car left the institute. Everything seemed normal.

After he left, Director Yu put the drone back into the laboratory and went to the cafeteria, where he saw Du Chen and Yu Xi at the cafeteria door.

Yu Xi glanced around him and said, "Dad, where's Lin An? Why are you the only one here?"

Director Yu's good mood was shattered the moment he saw Yu Xi, and he said unhappily, "Didn't I give you a holiday? Why are you still in the institute?"

Yu Xi didn't care: "I just want to stay in the station. Dad, where is Lin An? Doesn't he want to eat? Then I'll pack it and send it to his dormitory later."

She kept talking to herself, but Director Yu was so anxious that his face turned black and red: "Shut up! Do you have any sense of shame? Lin An has a girlfriend. I've already said that. I've put my old face on the line. What else do you want? Can't you live without Lin An? Trash!"

Yu Xi used to be his proudest daughter, but what this girl did recently made him lose all his face and made him experience what it means to be ashamed at his age.

He now deeply felt that Lin An's departure was absolutely correct, but he was afraid that it would not be possible to invite him back again.

"Dad, what did I do wrong? I was just bravely pursuing the person I liked. If you like someone, shouldn't you be brave enough to say it out loud? Besides, he and that woman are just boyfriend and girlfriend, not married. There's nothing I can't say. I'm just trying to steal someone's girlfriend. I've never done it before, but it feels good to go crazy now."

Yu Xi didn't care at all that the cafeteria was a public place, and was determined to fight his father to the end.

“You!” Director Yu was so anxious that he felt dizzy. Seeing the determination in Yu Xi’s eyes, he slapped her, “Pa…”

The crisp sound of slapping shocked the people around.

Du Chen quickly stood in front of Yu Xi and said, "Director Yu, what are you doing? Yu Xi just can't figure it out. You have to give her some time to figure it out."

As he said that, he turned around and looked at Yu Xi distressedly: "Go to my room, I'll wipe it for you."

Yu Xi shook off his hand and raised her face. The five slap marks on her fair face were particularly conspicuous: "Dad, I won't give up. I must get Lin An! He is the only one in my life!"

"Pa..." Du Chen seemed to be slapped in the face, it was burning and painful!

"Didn't you also say that Lin An is very talented? If he becomes your son-in-law, he will definitely bring honor to our Yu family. I like him, and he must be mine!"

"Dad." Yu Xi's face instantly smiled brightly, "You will support me, right?"

Without waiting for her father to answer, she turned around and walked away with a smile. That smile made Director Yu feel cold in his heart and his mind was in turmoil.

Du Chen heard Yu Xi's words clearly, but what could he do? Some suffering is self-inflicted. No matter how resolute Yu Xi is, it does not stop him from liking her.

……

"Mr. Lin, I volunteered to give you a ride. Do you want to know why I volunteered?" The silence in the car was broken by Du Miao.

Du Miao and Du Chen are like siblings with the same personality. Du Chen doesn't like him, and Du Miao's dislike for him is also obvious in her eyes.

But when they met again today, Du Miao's disgust no longer had the vague hostility from before, but was instead filled with complexity.

"Miss Du wants to say something?" Du Miao did not answer. She looked ahead and said in a deep voice, "My brother likes Yu Xi. Isn't it obvious?"

"Because my brother likes Yu Xi, Yu Xi and I were also very good friends before you came. You could even say she was my best friend. She would tell me everything, including her girlish thoughts."

"Yu Xi is a very strong-willed girl. She admires her father the most. But one day she told me that she fell in love with a man."

"I was very happy at the time and thought she was talking about my brother because my brother was the only man around her, but she told me that she liked a man named Lin An, a man she had never met before."

"It's funny, she had admired you for a long time before you came. I asked her why."

Du Miao's voice suddenly stopped, and Lin An looked at her: "Why?" He also found it ridiculous.

"Because," Du Miao sneered, "Director Yu admires you very much. Yu Xi listened to his praise of you and his affirmation of your ability. Just by listening, she fell in love with you. Isn't it ridiculous?"

She said it ridiculously but didn't laugh, she just felt sorry for her brother. Yu Xi would rather like a man she had never met than like him.

This was the answer Lin An expected.

"My brother said you have a girlfriend?" The sneer on Du Miao's lips turned into a smile, "Then you must hide your girlfriend well. From what I know about Xi, she will not give up on you."

"You should have noticed that she is very persistent about certain things, so persistent that it's a bit abnormal." But her brother is also such a stubborn person who refuses to change.

Du Miao took a deep breath and said in a very calm voice: "Director Yu can't control her. When she gets crazy, she will do anything as long as it's not illegal."

Lin An suddenly regretted coming here.

"Thank you." After a brief silence, he thanked Du Miao.

Du Miao smiled and said nothing more. The two of them remained silent for the rest of the journey.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when the car entered Chu City. An hour later, the car arrived in the city.

"I've booked a hotel for you. It's not safe to travel at night." As long as Lin An returns to Chu City, he will be able to relax. He handed his phone to Du Miao and took a look. "Follow the navigation. I'll settle you down first, and then I'll go home."

"Okay." Du Miao nodded.

Lin An smiled.

"What? You think I will refuse?" Du Miao turned according to the navigation instructions and caught a glimpse of his expression.

"Yes."

"I'm not stupid. I'm alone this time. Director Yu gave me several days of vacation. I just don't know what to do, so I'll take this opportunity to send you back and treat it as a trip." Without deliberate targeting, Du Miao's personality can be very likable, cheerful and generous.

"We're here." The car stopped at the hotel entrance, and Lin An got out with her. "Thank you for driving me back. I can go back by myself now. You're tired too, so go to bed early. I'll extend your one-day stay to a week until you check out."

Du Miao understood what he meant and did not force it. She shook hands with Lin An and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin. Goodbye."
