Chapter 756: It’s All About Psychological Warfare
Lin Fan finished speaking and didn’t wait for Zhao Chuanchun’s response. He walked directly to the service area’s restroom with his arm around Wu Houbiao’s shoulder.
Watching his unturned back, Zhao Chuanchun couldn’t help but frown.
"County Magistrate Lin, why aren’t you leaving? Now these people will definitely check the car!"
Unable to restrain himself, Wu Houbiao turned his head to look at the crowd still surrounding the car. After causing such a commotion, why had he suddenly stopped leaving?
"If I had left just now, regardless of whether there was something in my car or not, it would have been assumed there was. But now, by stopping and leaving the car there, that proves there isn’t anything!"
Lin Fan went about his business, unzipped his trousers, and relieved himself. Wu Houbiao didn’t fully understand but kept silent. After they finished at the restroom, they bought some drinks at the convenience store and then returned to the car. The few who had stayed behind exchanged glances with each other, and as Lin Fan had predicted, they didn’t check the back door of his car.
"County Magistrate Lin, I already said it was all a misunderstanding. Since it’s been clarified, there’s no issue. It’s getting late; you should depart soon. My little girl insists on going to the City for fun. Please take good care of her, and should there be any issue, feel free to discipline her. Just don’t spoil her too much."
Zhao Chuanchun was still smiling as before, but this time he proactively mentioned Zhao Qianyue, a clear sign that his trust in Lin Fan had changed.
"County Magistrate Zhao, rest assured, I guarantee the young lady will return unharmed."
Lin Fan handed the coffee he had bought to Zhao Qianyue. With the crisis averted, she also managed a smile, opened the passenger door, and sat down. However, Lin Fan still did not leave; instead, he stepped up to Huo Ben.
