Chapter 392: Making the News
Early the next morning, Chen Fan received a notice to pack his things and go downstairs for a medical examination.
Half an hour later, Chen Fan, carrying his packed suitcase, arrived at the lobby downstairs.
The doctor on duty waiting there took Chen Fan's temperature.
"36.5°C. You haven't had a fever these past few days, right?"
Chen Fan: "No."
Doctor: "Have you had any other symptoms? Like headaches or runny nose?"
Chen Fan shook his head: "None at all."
The doctor then lowered his head and scribbled a few notes in the notebook in front of him.
"Alright. You can go now."
"Remember, don't violate school rules again in the future."
Chen Fan nodded with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."
He dragged his suitcase out of the dormitory building alone.
Outside the door, a figure was standing there, smiling as she watched Chen Fan.
Although she was wearing protective gear and a mask, Chen Fan recognized Su Ruochu at a glance.
Putting down his suitcase, Chen Fan walked over, and without waiting for Su Ruochu to speak, he opened his arms and pulled her into an embrace.
"What are you doing... people are watching."
Su Ruochu's face turned red, feeling a bit embarrassed as she gently pushed Chen Fan. But she couldn't move him.
Chen Fan hugged Su Ruochu tightly: "Wife, you must take good care of yourself, don't always be a silly good person, I want you to be safe and sound."
Seeing Chen Fan start nagging again, Su Ruochu sighed helplessly.
"I know. You've said it several times already."
As they separated from the hug, Su Ruochu looked at Chen Fan with a smile.
"How long did you prepare last night's surprise?"
Chen Fan chuckled: "How was it? Did you like it?"
"Mm-hmm. I liked it very much."
Su Ruochu nodded with a smile.
"But how did you convince everyone to cooperate with you..."
"Ah, I remember now, you asked me for the phone number list of the dorms earlier, you didn't call every single dorm, did you?"
"But, I still don't understand how you persuaded them to cooperate with you."
Chen Fan looked smug, "It's better if you don't understand."
"Is there anything your man can't accomplish?"
Su Ruochu snorted twice, not giving Chen Fan a chance to brag.
"I still can't return to the apartment for a few days, you have to behave yourself when you're alone, don't go wandering around..."
At this moment, the doctor on duty came out to chase them away.
"According to regulations, you two can't meet, quickly separate, otherwise you'll have to be quarantined again..."
Seeing Chen Fan's eyes light up slightly, Su Ruochu guessed what this guy was up to.
So before Chen Fan could open his mouth, Su Ruochu pushed him away.
"Alright. Hurry up and go. Remember to call if anything happens."
"I know... I'll take good care of myself."
Seeing Su Ruochu urging him to leave, Chen Fan could only smile bitterly and wave his hand.
"Take care of yourself."
After parting with Su Ruochu, Chen Fan dragged his suitcase back to the apartment alone.
The apartment felt empty after being without its owner for a while.
Chen Fan felt a bit lonely, especially since he didn't know when Su Ruochu would finish her volunteer activities, which made him even more depressed.
He opened the refrigerator and took a look, almost all the food inside had expired.
Finally, he dug out a can of beer and a pack of instant noodles.
Chen Fan planned to quickly solve the breakfast problem, but just as he sat down, before he could even boil water, the doorbell rang.
He went to open the door and was stunned looking at the faces outside.
"Why... why are you all here?"
"Surprise, buddy!"
The guys outside shouted, and Ma Xiaoshuai was the first to step forward, giving Chen Fan a bear hug.
"Congratulations on getting out."
Chen Fan was exasperated.
"Get lost. I was just in quarantine, not in jail, what's there to congratulate?"
Looking at this bunch coming into the house, besides Ma Xiaoshuai, all the guys from dorm 519 were present. In addition, there was Ma Xiaoshuai's girlfriend Song Linlin, and Wu Di's girlfriend Su Qing.
They were all carrying plastic bags filled with vegetables, fruits, drinks, and beer.
They had clearly come prepared.
Chen Fan was a bit surprised: "How did you know I was coming out today?"
Wu Di chuckled: "Of course someone told us."
Ma Xiaoshuai teased: "Where's Fourth Sister-in-law?"
Chen Fan shook his head, "She still has to continue volunteering until the school lifts the lockdown."
Song Linlin suddenly chimed in: "Chen Fan, you must treat Ruochu well for the rest of your life."
"She was willing to risk her life for you. Not many girls could do that."
"Hmph. If you dare to let Ruochu down, as her best friend, I'll be the first one not to let you off the hook."
Ma Xiaoshuai "scolded" from the side: "What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of person do you think Old Chen is?"
"But come to think of it, if a girl was willing to do something like this for me, I would definitely be moved to tears. Forget about marrying her, I'd even be willing to marry into her family..."
Chen Fan looked helpless: "I say, what exactly did you guys come here for?"
"Of course to celebrate with you."
Luo Wenjie saw the instant noodles on the coffee table and couldn't help but tease.
"No way, Brother Fan, you're such a big boss, and you're still eating instant noodles?"
Chen Fan rolled his eyes: "Cut the crap. Hurry up and cook, I'm only responsible for eating today."
With this big chef Chen Fan resting, the only ones left who could cook were the two girls.
So they called Ma Xiaoshuai and Wu Di to help in the kitchen, while the rest played games in the living room while waiting for the food to be ready.
Han Xu and Sun Hao were playing Double Dragon on the TV.
Luo Wenjie didn't get a controller, so he had an unlit cigarette in his mouth and was leaning on the sofa using Chen Fan's laptop to surf the internet.
After a while, Luo Wenjie suddenly shouted.
"Holy crap! Brother Fan, you've gone viral this time. This post is exposing you and Fourth Sister-in-law..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Chen Fan mumbled, lying on the sofa unwilling to move.
But Luo Wenjie directly brought the laptop over and placed it in front of Chen Fan.
"Look at this, you two have really gone viral this time."
Chen Fan curiously took a look and found that it was actually a post on the school's BBS.
《Witnessing a Warm Love Story in the Cold and Depressing Quarantine Building》
Then this poster said he was a student who had just graduated last year.
He originally planned to come to the school for his thesis defense. Who would have thought that he would encounter SARS and the school would be locked down.
So he and a bunch of graduates were temporarily arranged to live in this abandoned dormitory building.
At first, the dormitory environment was dirty and messy, there was dirt in the faucets, the water wasn't clean... They had to eat cold boxed meals every day.
Everything changed until the previous meal delivery auntie got sick and took leave, and then a girl, in order to see her boyfriend, resolutely joined the volunteer team.
It was because of this girl's joining that life in the entire dormitory building became colorful.
The poster then introduced how Su Ruochu gave everyone notes, letting people leave messages and interact, asking what they needed, and she would try her best to bring in the things they needed...
In order to let everyone eat hot boxed meals, she, a girl, often had to carry two bags of boxed meals weighing 20-30 kilograms up and down the stairs.
"Although I didn't get to see her face clearly, I think she must be a kind-hearted fairy with a beautiful appearance."
The poster then introduced the girl's boyfriend, and then brought up the song playing at night and the final surprise chorus...
The poster concluded: "I could see that the boy is also a very outstanding person. In order to prepare a surprise for his girlfriend, he called at least over a hundred dorm rooms in the entire building by himself... Everyone was moved by his sincerity."
Finally, here's a photo I secretly took this morning.
Wishing their love to last forever and always be happy.
The post ended here, with a photo at the end showing Chen Fan and Su Ruochu in protective gear hugging each other.
This was clearly just taken this morning.
Chen Fan frowned as he read through the post content, confirming that the other party hadn't written anything bad, before calmly saying.
"The text is well-written, it should be someone in journalism."
Luo Wenjie teased: "You're famous now?"
"Famous my ass! It's just a post on the school's BBS."
Chen Fan shook his head, not taking it seriously at all.
