On the other side, Lin Fan and Zhu Shan chatted for a few more minutes before Zhu Shan left.

To be honest, Zhu Shan was very, very happy that he was able to gain something from Lin Fan today.

So she kept a smile on her face and said that she would definitely come to visit Lin Fan again when she had time.

Huba, standing to the side, had a complex expression on his face upon seeing this.

After seeing Zhu Shan off, Huba looked at Lin Fan with surprise and said, "Brother Lin, you're really something! How did you get to know him?"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Miss Zhu introduced us. She said her younger brother wanted to start his own business and make a name for himself, so he came to me for advice."

"Perhaps some of my suggestions had a good effect on him, so he was quite nice to me. It wasn't as exaggerated as you think, Brother Huba."

Huba shook his head and looked at Lin Fan with envy, saying, "Brother Lin, when I first met you, you were a very green and ordinary kid in my eyes. But in such a short time, you have not only established a good relationship with Mrs. Zhou and Miss Zhu, but you also have such connections now."

"Zhu Shan must have spoken directly to his father about your matter, which is quite rare. His father probably knows who you are now. If you encounter something like this again, you might not need my help. Just go to him directly; it will be more effective than anything else."

What are these people who live on the edge of the gray area most afraid of? Without a doubt, they are most afraid of the police.

While Huba envied Lin Fan's previous connections, they weren't as impressive as they were now. However, his acquaintance with Zhu Shan and their close relationship was something Huba truly envied.

Of course, what Huba cared about most was Lin Fan's attitude. Lin Fan probably knew how important such a person was to people like them, which is why he had just introduced the two of them.

This touched Huba a little. Lin Fan seemed to be a very amiable person on a daily basis, and nothing special. But upon closer inspection, it became clear that he was impeccable in these details, and it was very comfortable to be with him.

If he could get in touch with Zhu Shan, then in the underworld of Liangshan County, Hu Ba would be the only one who dared to say no.

"Haha, Brother Huba, you're too kind with your evidence. I'm just introducing you two. As for how far your relationship will go after you meet, that's entirely up to you. I can't help you with that."

"In the end, if Brother Huba is able to develop his own network because of this, that's your ability, and it has nothing to do with me."

Lin Fan smiled at Huba, then looked at the sky and waved his hand, saying, "Brother Huba, it's getting late, I'll be leaving now. You should also take your brothers back early. You don't need to come again tomorrow. After what happened today, they probably won't dare to cause trouble again."

Huba nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll let the brothers rest tomorrow. They've been keeping watch for you these past few days, and they're exhausted. I'll be going now, see you another day!"

Lin Fan rode his motorcycle home under the cover of night.

Because it was late, everyone in the family had already eaten and were preparing to rest. When Lin Fan returned, his adoptive mother thoughtfully asked him if he had eaten. Lin Fan said that he had already eaten at the cafeteria.

Afterwards, Lin Fan checked the two little girls' homework and, finding no problems, went to find Lin Shuying.

"Honey, why are you so late today?"

Lin Shuying is becoming increasingly sensitive. Since Lin Fan came back so late, she already felt that something might have happened to him, so she asked him with a worried expression.

Lin Fan didn't try to hide anything and told Lin Shuying what had happened at the factory that day.

When Lin Shuying heard that those people rushed into the cafeteria and threw feces into it, her face showed both heartache and amusement.

Meanwhile, some people stepped back in disgust, looking at Lin Fan and saying, "Ugh! These people are so disgusting."

"Honey, you're not covered in anything, are you? Why don't you go take a shower?"

Seeing this, Lin Fan couldn't help but glare at him: "Oh, so you're actually complaining about your husband now?"

"Fine, I'll let you taste whether I've gotten any of that filth on me!"

Lin Fan pounced on Lin Shuying and tackled her to the ground amidst her scream.

After a period of playful fighting, the atmosphere between the two became increasingly ambiguous.

Soon they were getting into the swing of things, and a series of alluring panting sounds could be heard.

……

The next day.

Last night was quite tiring, so Lin Fan took a little break and didn't wake up until after nine o'clock.

After waking up, having breakfast, and tidying up briefly, Lin Fan was originally going to the county town when Chu Jiang found him.

"Teacher, why are you here so early today? Is something the matter?"

Chu Jiang usually arrives for class at 10:00 AM sharp, teaches for two hours, goes home for lunch, and then returns around 2:00 PM for another three hours.

Coming here so early today, usually when Chu Jiang needs to see him, means that Chu Jiang has something to discuss with him.

As expected, upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Chu Jiang took out a name card of Tang Jin from his pocket and handed it to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan hadn't even had a chance to look at the results by tomorrow when Chu Jiang continued, "Xiao Fan, do you remember what I mentioned to you last time?"

Lin Fan's pupils contracted as he looked at Chu Jiang and asked, "Are you referring to the matter of me being put into the translation team last time?"

Chu Jiang smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right. I gave that article you translated to my old friend last time, and he was very satisfied with it. However, he is a cautious person and felt that he should test you personally to prevent you from cheating."

"Of course, don't misunderstand and think he means you no harm. He's just very meticulous when it comes to academics, but he's generally easy to get along with. So he wants you to come over in person to personally assess you, and also to let the other members of the translation team see if you're okay. If that's the case, then it's probably settled, and you'll have the opportunity to join the translation team with them in the future."

Upon hearing Chu Jiang's words, Lin Fan subconsciously frowned.

He didn't have any problem with the arrangement itself, but he was quite busy lately. The translation team seemed to be based in the capital, and he couldn't possibly go there in person. That was obviously impossible.
