Protagonist:

Jiang Wenyu

Jiang Wenyu smiled wryly and said, "They can't eat you, so what are you afraid of."

Li Chen's expression was very exaggerated as he said, "You didn't see it. That person just stood there and had an extraordinary presence. I was afraid that if I misspoke a single word, he'd take me away."

Jiang Wenyu couldn't help but laugh out loud, and finally said, "Rest assured, the repairs are going very smoothly. I'll tinker with it a bit when I get back today and it should be just about done."

"That's good, that's good." Li Chen let out a breath of relief. After that, he took out something else. A closer look revealed it was a large map of Chema City. He pointed at a few places on it and said, "Take a look. The places I marked all have relatively suitable prices, suitable for your whole family to live in."

Jiang Wenyu shook his head and smiled wryly, "The matter of buying a house will probably have to wait a bit."

"Why?"

Jiang Wenyu had no choice but to briefly explain yesterday's situation. After listening, Li Chen couldn't help but sigh and say, "Looks like you don't have it easy either. Good thing I'm not married."

Jiang Wenyu gloated secretly, "Don't rush. When you find a wife later, I reckon I won't be much better off."

Upon hearing this, Li Chen became displeased. He stood up, straightened his back, and said, "Does Li Chen look like someone henpecked by his wife? Ab—so—lute—ly—im—pos—si—ble!"

Jiang Wenyu glanced at him and smiled, "Sure, we'll see. If I guess right later, you have to treat me to a meal."

Li Chen confidently patted his chest, "No problem!"

……

Today's work went very fast. Around one o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Wenyu returned home.

"You're back. Have you eaten?" Chen Lan asked with a smile. Today, she was exceptionally happy.

"I've eaten. Where's Nuan Nuan?" Jiang Wenyu also asked gently.

Chen Lan replied, "She fell asleep inside after finishing her meal."

Jiang Wenyu didn't say much. He put down the toolbox, took out the intercom from the inner room, and started repairing it right there in the small living room. During this time, Chen Lan had nothing to do, so she walked over and sat down, occasionally helping Jiang Wenyu with a small task.

"Miao Miao came by today." Chen Lan said during this time.

Jiang Wenyu didn't put down the work in his hands as he spoke, "Mm, how's she doing over there?"

"Pretty good." Chen Lan said, "But Miao Miao said she still wants to be a teacher if the opportunity arises in the future."

"Mm, the teaching profession is pretty good, very sought after, but not too easy either. Chema City isn't developed enough currently, so we can only wait a few more years."

Chen Lan asked with some curiosity, "You seem to know a lot about teaching too? How come I never saw you involved with it before."

Jiang Wenyu laughed and casually brushed it off. This era-related knowledge naturally came from the future.

After about half an hour, just as the two were preparing to rest a bit, that familiar knocking sound suddenly rang out.

These past few days, that Li Zhao hadn't come to cause trouble. Chen Lan and Jiang Wenyu had also slightly let their guard down. Therefore, upon hearing the knock, Chen Lan immediately ran over to open the door.

"You are…"

Standing outside the door was a man with an extremely serious expression. He looked about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, stiff and proper. He wore a standard olive-green uniform, and a black, heavy-feeling short baton hung from the belt at his waist.

"Hello, police."

The two words "police" immediately drew Jiang Wenyu's gaze. Chen Lan also clearly looked somewhat surprised, not knowing what to say for a moment. Jiang Wenyu also immediately walked over.

The policeman before him stood half a head taller than himself, extremely serious. Just standing there, he exuded an indescribable presence.
