Chapter 154: Is She a Teacher?
Chen Fan took out all the loose change on him, totaling over 1,500 yuan, and gave it all to Feng Pojun.
However, the other party refused to accept it.
"I can't take this money."
Chen Fan smiled, "Take it. It's not a free gift."
"Won't you need to prepare some things when you start working here?"
"A thermos for drinking water, a cup, and you'll probably need to smoke to stay awake when you get tired at night, right?"
"There's also no living quarters here for now, only that office over there is still relatively clean. But there's no bed."
"Use this money first to buy a single bed, bedding, and pillows... If it's not enough, ask me for more later..."
Feng Pojun thought about it and took the money.
It could be seen that he cherished this job greatly.
When Chen Fan was about to leave, Feng Pojun had already started inspecting every corner of the construction site alone.
He wanted to check every nook and cranny.
Chen Fan didn't stop him, but went to the office and looked around.
He didn't see Ding Dian, but when he left, he noticed there was an old man in the security booth.
It seemed Ding Dian had already found a security guard.
He thought about it and gave Ding Dian a call.
"Aren't you at the amusement park?"
"You're here?"
On the other end of the phone, Ding Dian explained, "I'm outside ordering materials."
"Big Boss, are you really not going to manage anything and just throw money at me and let me handle everything?"
Chen Fan felt a bit awkward, "Sorry about that. For things like hiring, you can just call me, and I'll take care of it."
"Forget it, I don't think you seem like someone who understands this kind of thing. You might get scammed when the time comes."
"I just ordered another batch of materials, it'll probably take about half an hour before I can get back."
"Did you need something from me?"
"No. I brought someone named Feng Pojun to the construction site and had him temporarily take charge of security."
"You can have him handle anything you need in the future."
"Got it."
"Oh, and I see you've hired a gatekeeper?"
"Oh, there aren't any employees at the construction site yet, so this old man who lives nearby came looking for a job."
"I just took it upon myself to keep him."
"You can talk to him, and if you're not satisfied, you can fire him."
Chen Fan smiled, "For things like this in the future, you can just make the decision yourself. I trust you."
"Hmph. You really do treat me like one of your employees."
Seeing that this woman was about to get angry, Chen Fan quickly said, "Well, I still have some things to take care of here, so I won't wait for you. I'll take my leave now..."
After saying that, he quickly hung up and left the construction site alone.
To be honest, regarding the renovation of this amusement park, Chen Fan's greatest luck was finding Ding Dian.
If it weren't for her busying herself and handling everything, Chen Fan would probably have encountered many difficulties on his own.
And for many things that were not even part of her job scope, Ding Dian still helped out without any additional demands.
This undoubtedly saved Chen Fan a tremendous amount of pressure and time.
"I must try to get her on my side."
Chen Fan had made up his mind.
When his experience hall opened for business, he had to try to get Ding Dian to work for him.
The problem Chen Fan was facing now was not only the pressure of running out of funds quickly, but also the lack of available manpower around him.
He didn't have a single trusted aide around him.
If all the management staff were recruited from outside once the experience hall opened in the future, Chen Fan felt a bit uneasy.
So, he set his sights directly on Ding Dian.
This woman was a capable person, knowledgeable in design and personnel management. If he could get her on his side, she would definitely be his right-hand person.
Chen Fan decided to have a serious talk with her about this matter when the experience hall was close to completion.
As he took a cab towards the school, Chen Fan received a call from Fang Ling.
As soon as the call connected, Fang Ling's voice poured into Chen Fan's ears like a machine gun.
"Chen Fan!"
"Where on earth have you been?"
Chen Fan felt awkward, "Well...since there's nothing for me to do, I'll take my leave first."
"You bastard! Who said you could leave?"
Chen Fan smiled bitterly, "Wasn't it your family who told me to leave?"
"I brought you here, why are you listening to them? You did this on purpose, trying to make me angry?"
Fang Ling seemed to be throwing a tantrum, furiously ranting at Chen Fan.
"Where are you now?"
"At school."
"Don't lie! You're definitely not at school. I went to your dorm, and no one was there."
Chen Fan felt extremely awkward.
"Well, I'm on my way there, I'll be in the dorm soon."
Fang Ling angrily shouted, "I'm right outside the school gate, come over and meet me right now."
After saying that, she hung up without waiting for Chen Fan to respond.
Chen Fan stared at his phone in a daze.
He thought to himself, why is this girl so angry?
Did something go wrong? Did she have a falling out with her family?
If I go now, will I become her punching bag?
After pondering for a while, he eventually decided to go.
Because Chen Fan estimated that if he didn't go, the consequences could be even worse.
When he got out of the car at the school gate, he saw Fang Ling from afar, already changed into different clothes.
"Senior Sister..."
"Hmph. You still have the nerve to come back."
Chen Fan touched his nose, "Wasn't it you who told me to come over?"
"You dare talk back! I'll ask you, who told you to leave?"
Seeing that she was about to dwell on this issue again, Chen Fan decisively changed the subject.
"Why did you change your clothes? Did you resolve the issue?"
"You didn't get into an argument with your family, did you?"
Fang Ling sneered, "How could we not argue?"
Chen Fan sighed, "You went a bit too far today, leaving them no way out."
However, Fang Ling didn't seem to care at all.
"That's exactly the effect I wanted."
"As long as they accept the fact that I already have a boyfriend, they won't randomly introduce blind dates to me anymore in the future."
Chen Fan reminded her, "The truth will come out sooner or later."
"I don't care. As long as I can have some peace and quiet for a while."
"Oh right, as long as this doesn't get exposed, you'll have to keep helping me cover it up in the future."
"If I need your help next time, you can't refuse."
Chen Fan joked, "I think your family seems quite powerful, they won't hire an assassin to kill me, will they?"
Fang Ling nodded.
"That possibility can't be ruled out. You should be careful."
"You're really serious... Then I should probably keep my distance from you."
"Just try walking away."
Chen Fan shrugged helplessly, "But you said the issue was resolved, right? So what do you need me for now?"
"That part is resolved, but my issue isn't resolved yet."
Fang Ling stomped her foot, "Did you forget something?"
Chen Fan had a puzzled look, "What?"
"Whose birthday is it today?"
"Whose?"
Chen Fan asked instinctively, then suddenly realized and slapped his forehead.
"Oh right, it's your birthday today, I completely forgot."
Fang Ling gritted her teeth, "I haven't even eaten yet until now."
Chen Fan clapped his hands, "I understand. I'll treat you to a meal. What do you want to eat?"
Fang Ling pursed her lips, "I don't know."
"Then where do you want to eat?"
"It's so cold today, let's just find a random place on the street across from here."
Fang Ling scanned the area and pointed.
"Let's have hotpot."
Chen Fan decisively extended his hand.
"Alright. I'll treat you to hotpot."
Only then did Fang Ling nod in satisfaction.
"That's more like it."
Just as they were about to cross the street, Chen Fan noticed a familiar face.
It was his landlady, Wen Wan. This woman was wrapped in a thick scarf, head lowered as she hurried towards the school.
"Teacher Wen..."
Fang Ling took the initiative to wave and greet her.
Chen Fan was taken aback.
Teacher Wen?
She's a teacher?
