Lin Fan quickly shook his head and said with a smile, "Sister Zhu, there's no need for so much trouble. It's just a misunderstanding. Besides, the shop I rented outside is much more profitable than the one inside."

That's true. Inside, he was on the top floor and hardly saw any customers, but outside, he had received a lot of orders and made a fortune.

"Alright, if you have any problems that you can't solve, just tell me. For the sake of our friendship, Sister Zhu will definitely not stand idly by."

Miss Zhu nodded. Since Lin Fan was unwilling to say more, she didn't ask any further questions. Then the two of them went into the store together.

Lin Fan introduced his relatives and friends to Miss Zhu, especially Lin Shuying.

This was the first time Miss Zhu and Lin Shuying had met.

"Xiaolin, is this your wife? She's really young and beautiful."

Ms. Zhu had been wondering what kind of woman could win the favor of such an outstanding young man as Lin Fan.

Now that I've met Lin Shuying in person, it feels somewhat natural.

Miss Zhu's looks are probably above average among women. She wouldn't say she's a stunning beauty, but she's definitely not ugly. Coupled with her mature and voluptuous temperament, her full figure is better than most women.

To be honest, compared to Lin Shuying, there is absolutely no comparison. She is younger and more beautiful than him, truly like a fairy who stepped out of a painting.

Lin Fan was also young and handsome. The two of them standing together looked like a perfect match, like a golden couple.

"Haha, Sister Zhu, you flatter me."

"Honey, this is Miss Zhu, whom I mentioned to you. She's a major client in our fur business and also a benefactor to me."

"Hello, Miss Zhu."

Lin Shuying greeted Miss Zhu somewhat reservedly.

After a brief introduction to Lin Fan, he bought a few items for Ms. Zhu, including the latest styles from their store that were perfect for her.

Of course, neither of them mentioned money. How much are these clothes worth? Miss Zhu can easily spend several thousand yuan a month on a single fur coat from Lin Fan.

Even if they were given away as free gifts, these clothes would be more than enough.

After picking out clothes for Miss Zhu, Miss Zhu suddenly looked at Lin Fan and said, "Little Lin, actually, besides seeing you, there are other reasons why I came today."

Miss Zhu then relayed to Lin Fan exactly what Director He had told him.

Lin Fan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"Disturbing the peace?"

"Sister Zhu, Director He, is there some misunderstanding here?"

“My shop is located on a commercial street, and there are no residential areas nearby, so how could it be disturbing the neighbors?”

"Besides, the music I'm playing here isn't very loud, and dancing won't make much noise. Isn't this reason a bit far-fetched?"

Lin Fan's tone revealed a hint of doubt.

He's not stupid. The nearest residential area is several streets away. How loud would his music have to be to disturb the people there?

He had already considered all the possibilities before doing all this, so he wouldn't leave himself with such obvious evidence, nor would he affect the lives of ordinary people or break the law.

But Director He said that someone had already reported it. Is there any need to think about it? Who are these people who reported it? There must be something fishy going on.

Seeing that Miss Zhu was looking over with a serious expression, Director He coughed and said, "I'm not very clear about this matter. How about this, I'll ask Brother Long to come in and ask him."

Miss Zhu said calmly, "Alright, let him in and ask him what's going on."

Director Long was waiting outside, but when he heard that Miss Zhu wanted to see him, he came running in excitedly.

Then everyone asked him about it.

After hearing this, Director Long suddenly felt a little embarrassed, unsure whether to tell the truth or make up an excuse.

But after thinking about it, I finally came up with a compromise that neither lied to anyone nor revealed a tiny bit of information, but completely absolved myself of any responsibility.

"Ahem, actually I'm not very clear about this either. It was Manager Zhao from Yunchou Company who came to report it."

“I have some acquaintance with him, and he spoke of this matter with great seriousness, so I had no choice but to come and check to see if it was true.”

"But it's obviously just a misunderstanding. I'll warn him when we get back."

Director Long acted as if he had come specifically to investigate and hadn't simply sent people to seal off the shop based on what others said, which made it difficult for them to find fault with him.

Lin Fan's eyes flickered upon hearing Director Long's words.

Manager Zhao? It's that guy again. He's really persistent.

Fortunately, Ms. Zhu helped me this time, otherwise I might have been unwittingly accused.

I will still have ways to solve the problem then, but it certainly won't be as easy as it is now.

"Xiao Lin, what's going on between you and this Manager Zhao?"

Miss Zhu turned to look at Lin Fan and spoke with a somewhat serious expression.

Lin Fan quickly waved his hand and said, "Sister Zhu, there might be some misunderstanding here. Manager Zhao and I are just in some business competition."

"Since Director Long says it's a misunderstanding, let's just let this matter go."

Lin Fan didn't want to bother Sister Zhu anymore. You know, the power of human relationships is something that diminishes the more you use them.

It is said that human relationships are based on give and take, and only relationships that are reciprocal can last. So far, Miss Zhu has been able to provide Lin Fan with a lot of help, but Lin Fan has been unable to do anything for Miss Zhu except give her two pieces of clothing.

Such social interactions involve constant giving, and over time the relationship fades. Lin Fan didn't want to do that; he wanted to maintain Miss Zhu's connections. So, he preferred to handle such matters himself.

"Alright, since it's a misunderstanding, let's just let it go. Xiao He, Director Long, in the future, we should investigate these kinds of things thoroughly before acting rashly or wrongly accusing innocent people."

Miss Zhu smiled slightly, then turned to look at Director Long and gave him a light reminder.

Director Long quickly nodded and said, "Miss Zhu, I understand. This kind of thing will definitely not happen again in the future."

"That's good!"

After chatting for a few more minutes, Lin Fan saw Miss Zhu and the others off. After all, his shop was primarily focused on business and he was very busy, so he couldn't stay and chat with them forever.

Miss Zhu was a shrewd woman; she couldn't let Lin Fan's business be disrupted, so she picked up her clothes and left.
