“Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding…”

While talking and laughing, a cell phone ringing came from the bedroom.

Lin Fan frowned, as if he didn't want to answer.

The ringing kept ringing, and everyone looked at her in confusion. She finally sighed and stood up helplessly.

Unexpectedly, after Lin Fan walked into the bedroom and picked up the phone, he returned to the table and sat down. After connecting the phone, he pressed the speaker phone and placed it on the table, without any intention of avoiding everyone present.

She crossed her arms and leaned on the back of the chair, frowning slightly and saying, "Hey."

Even Li Chunhua could see the obvious reluctance on Lin Fan's face.

No one has ever seen Lin Fan like this. I don’t know what problem she encountered, or who is on the other end of the phone.

Everyone remained silent and listened quietly.

"Xiaofan, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" Mother Lin's high-pitched voice came over the phone.

Jin Sichen glanced at the note name on his phone and frowned when he saw it was "Mom".

You know, one of the reasons for Lin Fan's depression was Lin's mother.

Not only that, Lin’s mother’s words and deeds were the last straw that broke Lin Fan’s mind. And in the later stages of recovery, it is an important cause of recurrence of the disease. And because of her verbal stimulation, Lin Fan jumped into the river...

Of course, nothing happened in the end because of Xingchen, but it was undeniable that Lin's mother was the most unstable factor in Lin Fan's life.

In the past six months, due to isolation from the outside world and contact with Lin's mother, Lin Fan's recovery has been very good. Seeing that he was about to enter a stable period soon, Lin's mother suddenly called.

Jin Sichen has never seen Lin Fan look like this, extremely reluctant and unable to resist.

His face, which had always been calm in the past, became obviously sad. Just one phone call showed how much Mother Lin had affected him.

Song Ren didn't know why, but when he saw Jin Sichen frowning, he had a bad intuition.

"...I was busy just now..." Lin Fan's tone of voice changed.

He was obviously joking just now, but suddenly he became sad. Not only was he reluctant to speak, he was also weak.

Ji Yu glanced at Lin Fan secretly, then looked at the expressions of Jin Sichen and Song Ren, then lowered his head and said nothing.

"Oh, you say you're busy every time I call, and I don't know if you're really busy or pretending to be busy." Lin's mother came over with a barrage of scoldings unhappily, "When are you guys going to have a holiday? It's almost the Chinese New Year, what are your plans?" What time will you return?"

"...Didn't I tell you that our unit doesn't have holidays?" Lin Fan said helplessly.

She can't help herself in 800. It's not certain when she can go out. Why is she still on vacation?

"How is it possible that we don't have a holiday?! What kind of unit doesn't have a holiday?! I have to ask your boss!" Lin's mother suddenly increased the volume, and was so frightened that she listened attentively.

Lin Fan panicked, breathed out lightly, licked his lips and replied, "This is a confidential mission. Didn't I tell you before? It needs to be developed in a completely closed manner. How can we leave just as soon as we say it?"

Of course others knew that Lin Fan was lying. But she was right. In the project team, how can you just leave?

"The daughter of Lao Wang's family next door just came back from Gaohe. I asked her, and she said she had never heard of the company you mentioned. In the past six months, you have had no news and you haven't seen any money..." Lin Ma's sharp voice was output continuously like a machine cannon.

"What kind of secret?! I've been living this long and I've never heard of it before?! Tell me the company address and I'll go find your leader! How can anyone not have a holiday during the Chinese New Year?" Lin's mother's voice suddenly became violent, " Don’t you want to come back and are you looking for excuses to fool us?”

"Do you work in Gaohe? Or have you done something shameful and you dare not go home?!"

It's true that I don't want to go home, it's true that I'm cheating, but it's also true that I don't want to go home...

Lin Fan felt tired.

"Alas..." She sighed.

The others had been listening quietly. It was obviously normal at the beginning, but no one understood why Lin's mother's topic suddenly changed to this point.

Jin Sichen instantly felt the reason for Lin Fan's depression. With a mother like this, everyone would be depressed.

He stretched out his hand in front of Lin Fan and waved to her, indicating that he could help.

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment and shook his head in refusal. When Jin Sichen made a sound, it became even more unclear.

She continued on the phone: "It's true that Lao Wang's daughter works in Gaohe, but I remember that she works as the front desk of the company, right? What can she know?"

"What else can I do if I don't go to work? Tell me, what shameful things can I do?"

Lin Fan also laughed angrily. She was a 170-pound fat man when she left home. What shameful things could she do?

"..." Mother Lin choked, realizing that she had said something inappropriate.

But can she recognize it? It must not be possible, she said firmly, "Then you haven't contacted me for such a long time, and you don't have any money back. How can you blame others for not having random thoughts?"

"...Okay, I was negligent. I will send the money back in two days. Is this okay?" Lin Fan looked at Jin Sichen and Song Ren and saw them both nodding. He knew that he could make money outside and put down the burden in his heart. .

Didn't Jin Sichen just say he would give her a salary increase? Problems that money can solve are not problems.

"Do I want to ask you for money? I want you to go home!" Mother Lin's voice on the other end became even more unhappy. After a pause, he asked again, "How much money can I have?"

Several people who were listening were speechless. Don't you want money?

Everyone knows that Lin Fan suffers from depression, but they never know what causes it. In view of personal privacy, Jin Sichen did not disclose it to them.

At this moment, everyone suddenly understood and looked at Lin Fan with sympathy.

"Yes..." Lin Fan paused.

What she originally told Mother Lin was an annual salary plus bonus of 300,000 yuan. It’s only half a year now, and it’s not time to pay out bonuses. How much should I give?

Lin Fan, who was not good at mathematics, was calculating rapidly in his mind.

"Why is there no sound?" Mother Lin waited for a while and heard no movement, then patted the microphone and said, "Hey, hello, Xiaofan? Where is he?"

"I'm here, I'm here." Lin Fan roughly estimated a number, "One hundred thousand, I'll give you one hundred thousand, will it be enough for the New Year?"

"One hundred thousand..." Mother Lin's voice suddenly became quieter. After a burst of noise, Father Lin's voice came from the receiver, "What did you say to the child again?"

"What can I say? Let her come back for the New Year!" Although Lin's voice became softer, she sounded more irritable.

Father Lin didn't believe what Mother Lin said. He clearly heard the money talk.

"Xiao Fan." Lin's father's gentle voice came, and everyone present saw that Lin Fan was visibly relieved, and he felt much more relaxed.

"Dad." Lin Fan felt as if he hadn't heard Dad Lin's voice for a long time. The last time he heard it seemed like it was the last century.

A few keen people have discovered that Lin Fan called "Dad" here, but he never called "Mom" just now.

"How is Xiaofan doing lately? Is he feeling well?" As usual, Father Lin first cared about his child's health.

"...It's pretty good." Lin Fan's eyes were a little sore. Sure enough, no matter how long it takes, such care will touch her heart.

Others also breathed a sigh of relief.

Right, this is a normal development of family phone calls.

Has anyone noticed that Lin Fan has never called him mom? Haha, it’s a little foreshadowing, although it doesn’t seem to be of much use to the overall plot. Lin Fan had a grudge against Lin Ma and felt resentment in his heart. Votes are encouraged.
