In the shop.
It was very quiet. The workers all looked ashamed.
Zhang Zhi Jun came in front of the boss and bowed in apology. He was very serious and very stern. At that moment, he wasn’t a leader but a father whose son had committed a mistake.
The boss seemed at a loss. He didn’t know what to do. After all, he knew that this man was a leader. How could he let a leader bow to him?
However, Zhang Zhi Jun was sincerely apologizing to the boss. He looked over to his son sternly.
Come here. Apologize to this uncle.




No…
The child hid in his mother’s embrace, clearly afraid.

You…
Zhang Zhi Jun’s expression turned cold. The more he interacted with his son, the more he realized how spoiled and out of control his son was.
Meanwhile, the child’s mother had been frightened by her husband’s expression. She reprimanded her son and told him to apologize to the boss. Then, she apologized to the boss as well.
Although she still felt unyielding, she had no choice. If she didn’t apologize, she knew that she would be in trouble when they went home.
Zhang Zhi Jun recalled Master Lin’s words and finally made a decision. He was going to apply for a suspension from his duties or a change in appointment in order to free up his time and personally look after his son’s education.
When he said these, even though his wife begged him not to, it was useless.
To the middle-aged woman, if her husband were to change appointments or be suspended from his duties, that would have a great impact on them.
But hearing her husband’s tone, she knew that he had probably already decided. He wouldn’t change his decision.
Lin Fan, who had left the shop, felt great. Because of that brat, he was no longer keen to go outside to look around anymore.
Looking at the time, it was already half past five. It wasn’t early anymore. He went straight home. The next day, he would look around Shanghai.


The next day!
Cloud Street!
No matter what, the first task of each day was to go to the shop and make the scallion pancakes. After all, the townsfolk would always be waiting for him.
Moreover, he was a kindhearted person. He would never be lazy. As the saying goes, whatever you do, you have to love it. That’s what life is about.
He unlocked his phone and discovered a piece of news. It was the incident that he had encountered the previous day. However, this incident had not been exposed by others.
It had been Zhang Zhi Jun who exposed it himself. He had undergone a deep reflection and publicly announced the situation.
To Lin Fan, this Zhang Zhi Jun was pretty good. However, sometimes, one has to choose between work and family. And this Zhang Zhi Jun had chosen his family.
Perhaps to him, his family was much more important than his work.
Ding ding
At that moment, his phone rang.


Lin Fan looked at the display on the phone and was a little hesitant about whether to answer. It was a call from his student and he felt that it was probably not something good.
But after some consideration, he decided to answer.

Ming Qing…
Lin Fan didn’t dare to say much. He had a feeling that something bad was awaiting him.
Zhao Ming Qing said,
Teacher, I want to talk to you about something.

Lin Fan grumbled in his heart. He felt that something wasn’t right. What he was most afraid of hearing was ‘Teacher, let’s carry on developing prescriptions.’
This was what he least wanted to hear. He felt that it was terrifying.
Stay calm. I have to stay calm.


Alright, tell me. What is it?
asked Lin Fan.
Zhao Ming Qing replied,
Teacher, we’ve already rested for a period of time. Isn’t it time to start researching other prescriptions?

When these words were said, Lin Fan didn’t know what to reply. It was indeed what he had been afraid of.



Ming Qing, what you’re saying is true but I’ve been busy lately. I may not have the time. Why don’t you start researching first? If you come across difficulties, you can ask me,
said Lin Fan helplessly. This student of his was too hard working. His student was basically engrossed in medical studies every day.

Teacher, I’m already researching but I haven’t found any good leads at all. I think that if I research with Teacher, we’ll definitely be able to open up new doorways,
said Zhao Ming Qing.
Lin Fan rolled his eyes. He hadn’t expected his student to have been so prepared.

Wait a while more. Let me finish my work during this period of time first.

Right now, that was all he could say.
Hearing his teacher give in, Zhao Ming Qing was delighted.
Okay, okay. Please finish your work first then, Teacher.

Then, they hung up.
There wasn’t much to do in the shop at the moment.

You guys stay in the shop. I’m going out for a walk.
Lin Fan stood up to leave. Waiting all day in the shop for something to happen wasn’t going to work. He had to rely on himself to get the task done.
Heng Jiang Public Square.


There were many people here. After parking the car, Lin Fan went to the place with the most people, searching for suitable people.
He would look at every person that passed by but he didn’t pay attention to those who lived comfortable lives.
At that moment, a certain figure drew Lin Fan’s attention.
In front, a man who had lost both legs was sitting on a wooden cart. One of his hands was grabbing onto a shared-bike while the other was supporting himself on the ground. He rolled around, dragging the bicycle from afar to place it along the wall.
As Lin Fan sat there and watched, he had no idea what this man was doing.
At that moment, a cleaner passed by and Lin Fan asked,
May I know what he’s doing?

The cleaner said,
Oh, he’s bringing damaged shared-bikes over here for the employees from bike-sharing company to bring them back for repair.

Lin Fan asked,
Then does the bike-sharing company pay him?

The cleaner was taken aback. Then, he smiled and said,
How could they pay him? They didn’t even hire him. But it’s really strange. I’ve been here for a couple of months and I see him every day, bringing bicycles from god-knows-where over here to pile them up. Even when it rains, he still does it.


Oh right. He’s deaf-mute. He’s usually always around here. Sometimes, when passersby pity him, they’d give him some money and some people even give him some food.

Lin Fan nodded. He thanked the worker before walking in front.
He wanted to get closer to take a clearer look.
When Lin Fan went closer, he managed to see the tramp’s face clearly. Although the tramp’s clothes were old and tattered, he had maintained his cleanliness.
At that moment, the tramp had relied on his two hands to place the bicycle properly. Then, he picked up the bicycles that had fallen to the ground as well.

Hello.
Lin Fan went in front of him and extended his hand. He put on a smile.
The tramp was startled as he looked at Lin Fan in surprise. Although he couldn’t hear what this person was saying, to him, this normal action of extending one’s hand was the friendliest gesture.
