At night, Papa Lin naturally came back all drunk. But he was in a terrific mood. It seemed that tonight’s gathering had made him very happy.
To Lin Fan, as long as his family was happy, it was fine. As for other stuff, there was no need to think too much.
This time, fortunately, his message on Weibo hadn’t attracted everyone. Otherwise, that would really be hard to manage.
After staying at home for a few days, he was prepared to head back to Shanghai.
Papa Lin and Mama Lin sent Lin Fan to the airport.
Mama Lin couldn’t bear to part with him. “Son, just staying away for a while is enough. Come back to Zhongzhou in the future, okay?”
Papa Lin said from the side, “What do you know? Our son is doing so well outside, why should he come back? If we miss our son in the future, we can go to Shanghai to see him.”
Lin Fan smiled. “Dad, Mom, don’t worry. I’ve spoken to Mayor Zhang a few days ago. I’ll have to go back to my roots eventually, won’t I? I’ll spend a few more years in Shanghai and I’ll come back. Don’t worry. In the future, I’ll have to take care of you guys in your old age. How could I leave forever?”
Mama Lin smiled. “That’s good. Be safe out there. Especially now, safety is very important. When your dad and I found I that you went to Huang Yun Town that time, we were scared to death. If anything happened to you, what would we do?”
Lin Fan said, “Mom, don’t worry. I am aware of the situation. If there’s anything I’m not confident of, I definitely won’t do it.” Then, he looked at the time. “Alright, it’s almost time to check-in. I have to go. You and dad should go back earlier. There’s no need to worry about me. If there’s anything, call me. I’ll come back immediately.”
Papa Lin waved. “Go on, go on. One man is enough in the family. If you ever bring a wife back in the future, your mom and I will be very happy.
Lin Fan chuckled, then didn’t say more. He walked towards the airport. After spending just a bit of time at home, it was time to go back to Shanghai. He couldn’t quite bear to leave.
However, he had to spend some time away from home to broaden his horizons. It was also a way of making his life fulfilling. If he didn’t go anywhere his whole life, it would be a shame.
The next day!
Cloud Street!
When the shop owners saw Lin Fan, they all gathered around.
“Master Lin, why didn’t you tell us that it was your dad’s birthday? We would’ve gone as well,” said Elder Liang.
“Yeah! We only found out after seeing Weibo.”
When Lin Fan heard that, he was scared stiff. If they had gone, this birthday banquet would have been crazy.
“Thank you. It was not much.”
To the shop owners, anything that concerned Little Boss concerned them as well. Since it was Little Boss’s father’s birthday, they had to go as a courtesy.
Now that Cloud Street had become so busy and lively, it had a lot to do with Little Boss. Simply said, the current Cloud Street wouldn’t exist without Little Boss.
The townsfolk who were queuing to buy scallion pancakes were clamoring.
“Master Lin, hurry up and sell the scallion pancakes. When you were away, we were all dying of eagerness.”
“Yeah! Without queuing for a day, my heart feels all empty.”
“Little Boss, you haven’t sold scallion pancakes for a few days. Could you compensate for it? For example, you could sell thirty servings today.”
Lin Fan smiled. “Don’t even think about it. Making scallion pancakes is very tiring. I can only muster ten servings a day. And it’s already very draining.”
The people queuing felt a deep resentment. It was a tragic story. They waited for Little Boss’s scallion pancakes every day and their hearts itched very much.
