"Look at you, can't you eat more when you go out to play during the day?" John Woo looked at her heroic appearance and felt both angry and amused.
"That won't work?" Lin Fan wiped his mouth and put the empty bowl aside. "In front of a handsome guy, I still have to maintain my image."
Wu Yusen raised his eyebrows, and felt upset for a moment when he saw Lin Fan eating without any scruples in front of him.
Then I comforted myself in my heart, children speak without restraint. It's not that I'm not handsome enough, but that they are too familiar with each other.
"It's not really an image issue," Lin Fan explained after taking a few bites. "It's more about eating too much outside, which draws too much attention. I figured less is worse than more, so naturally I eat less outside."
"So you still don't feel hungry now?" John Woo helped her tidy up the dishes and moved the empty plates aside.
"Well, I can't feel it, and I can't taste it either." Lin Fan said that he felt a little uncomfortable here, uncomfortable in the physical sense.
"Actually, it won't matter if I don't eat now. If I hadn't transformed, the energy I'd have stored up would have been enough. I'm eating so much now mainly to store energy, just in case."
Wu Yusen nodded. "Eating is your only way to get energy right now. When there are no other alternatives, this is the only way."
Don't ever think that eating more is a blessing. With Lin Fan's huge appetite, it is already a very heavy burden for a normal person's body.
Although Lin Fan's genes have changed, her body structure is still that of a human.
Anyone who is human will feel the pain. Even if the food doesn't pass through the stomach, the mouth consumes it every day. John Woo feels pain in his cheeks just by watching it.
The Xingchen's standby time reaches 20 hours, and this progress seems to make everyone very excited.
I don’t know if it’s the result of the supplement from the meal or because of the previous lightning strike.
But being struck by lightning cannot be repeated, so eating is relatively simpler.
So Lin Fan repeated eating large amounts of food day after day, hoping to achieve 24-hour standby as soon as possible.
She herself also hopes that if there really is a 24-hour standby day, will there be any difference?
"It's actually pretty good." Lin Fan waved and smiled. "How many people can be like me? I can eat so much without gaining weight, without having to worry about losing weight, and without having to spend any money. Happiness is in my own hands, and I know how to cherish it."
John Woo didn't say anything, but just smiled and pushed the food towards her again.
An optimistic attitude is the best medicine.
The next day, Lin Fan got on John Woo's Prado to keep the appointment.
Although the subway is convenient, it is difficult to get a taxi from Ririhong.
Lin Fan later came up with an idea. He rode a shared bicycle from the subway station and parked it at the entrance of Ririhong, and then rode it to the subway station the next day.
Perfect!
But now that she is riding in John Woo's car, she doesn't have to worry about anything. It's better to just take the car, it's more convenient.
"I've already told the front desk to take your bike away after get off work." Wu Yusen said with a smile when he saw that Lin Fan was still wondering what to do with the bike she rode back last night.
There is no shared car parking space in front of the special office, so the car still remembers the time.
It wouldn't matter if it was left there for one or two nights, but if it was left there all the time, Lin Fan would always be thinking about it and couldn't feel at peace.
After all, she has been poor for decades, and even though this little money is nothing to her now, she still maintains her frugal nature.
"That's good." Lin Fan smiled. "I'll bring a gift for the receptionist later. Remember to remind me."
The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the agreed location.
When Antonio saw John Woo behind Lin Fan, his pupils shrank, but he kept smiling as he walked towards him.
"Lin, you are still as beautiful today." Antonio took out a red rose from somewhere and handed it to her.
"Thank you." Lin Fan knew that this was his personality and he was used to giving little surprises, so he accepted it with a smile.
John Woo kept smiling as he stood behind, thinking to himself, "This damn foreigner really knows how to make women happy."
"This is the good friend I mentioned to you before, John Woo." Before John Woo could think about it, Lin Fan pulled him to the front.
The two men greeted each other politely and shook hands.
Just looking at the smiles on their faces, you might think they get along very well.
But Lin Fan accidentally saw their clasped hands. The bulging veins and pale backs of their hands suggested that the truth might not be what it seemed.
Uh... my first impression of these two people... doesn't seem very good.
Awkward... Lin Fan, who was caught in the middle, was a little at a loss.
However, neither of them seemed to want to embarrass Lin Fan and quickly let go.
There was nothing unusual about their subsequent conversations and interactions; they even seemed to be having a pleasant chat. For a moment, Lin Fan thought she had misjudged their earlier confrontation...
Lin Fan didn't want to dwell on it any more. Since both of them wanted her to be happy, she would just be happy.
The three of them had a happy day. Apart from the handshake at the beginning, overall they were very happy.
When they parted, Antonio still made an appointment to meet the next day. Seeing that John Woo had no objection, Lin Fan happily agreed.
After getting on the Prado and driving for a while, Lin Fan looked at the street lights and asked, "What do you think?"
"It seems there's nothing wrong today," Wu Yusen said with a faint smile. "His palms are a bit thick, but there are no calluses. He doesn't look like someone in our line of work."
To be an agent, you need to be proficient in martial arts and firearms.
Lin Fan also had calluses on her hands, but because her body was constantly repairing itself, the calluses were not thick.
For example, since I haven't practiced weapons during this period, the cocoons have almost been metabolized.
But normally, martial artists like John Woo, Xue Ping, and Song Ren would definitely have calluses on their hands, and the marks would not be shallow.
Those who understand understand. They can even judge the weapons the other party is proficient in and the level of their practice based on the position and thickness of the cocoon.
Lin Fan had a vague idea of this skill, but he himself had no idea what it was.
"Then he should be fine?" She grinned.
No one wants to make friends with someone who has ulterior motives and agenda.
"The possibility has been reduced." Wu Yusen saw her happy expression and replied helplessly, "But it hasn't been completely ruled out."
It is not easy to eliminate the possibility 100%, but the smaller the probability, the better news.
"YES!" Lin Fan clenched his fist, extremely happy.
"I say..." Wu Yusen hesitated and asked, "Are you interested in that boy?"
"Huh?" Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. "No, no, you're overthinking it. I was just looking for someone to practice speaking with, and after getting to know him, I decided he was a good person. Plus, since you weren't around, I had nothing better to do, so I decided to go play with him."
Wu Yusen glanced at her and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If Lin Fan had any interest in that red-haired devil, it would be troublesome.
As for Lin Fan, she's beautiful, has a good figure, is rich, and has ability...
He can list a lot of advantages, and it's normal for a man to like her.
They all maintained a tacit understanding and kept their distance from Lin Fan.
But the red-haired ghost didn’t know, he was not aware of Lin Fan’s hidden identity.
Seeing how attentive he was to Lin Fan today, John Woo didn't believe that he didn't have any feelings for her.
Don't be afraid of him having any ideas.
I’m afraid that Lin Fan also has the same idea.
Although this may not sound very humane, the meaning of the above and everyone's tacit understanding is to prevent Lin Fan from having any worldly desires.
They are afraid that something unexpected will happen that they cannot control.
That’s why most of the people around Lin Fan are single handsome guys. It is also to subconsciously raise her standards so that she will not easily fall in love with ordinary people.
Once Lin Fan had this idea, they could neither forcefully order her to stop nor hypnotize her to forget it.
How hurtful is the word love?
If this isn't handled properly, Lin Fan, whose mental illness hasn't been fully cured, will be in even worse shape.
This is not all. If she is pushed into a corner again, it is not impossible that she will switch to another side.
So this arrangement also served as a backup plan - if Lin Fan really fell in love with one of them, at least the meat was still in his pot...
Judging from Lin Fan's current appearance, he really doesn't have such thoughts, but it's hard to say what will happen in the future.
John Woo was aware of her previous failed relationship. People who lack love are usually easily moved by others.
Judging from the red-haired devil's attack today... John Woo was unsure.
So where did that guy come from?
Damn it!
He was anxious! He was anxious!
