Chapter 495

In the drawing room .

It wasn't a standard drawing room, just a room with tables placed together . The installations inside were very simple but at that moment, Lin Fan was standing on the rostrum, teaching the children Chinese art .

Teaching adults is easy but teaching children is difficult . It requires a slow and gradual progression and everything must be done step-by-step .

"Uncle Lin, I've finished my drawing," said a girl with double ponytails . She jumped up and down while holding her painting in front of Lin Fan . Then, she looked hopefully at Uncle Lin as if she wanted to receive praise .

Lin Fan looked at the painting and stroked his chin . For a moment, he couldn't quite understand the painting but of course, he couldn't say that to the child . Then, he asked, "Lil' Yuan Yuan, what are you drawing here?"

The little girl had smooth cheeks and big eyes . When she had been rescued from the human traffickers, her face had been yellowish and extremely skinny . But after being taken care of in the Children's Welfare Inst.i.tute, she had recovered her health . She was a very cute little girl .

The Lil' Yuan Yuan pointed to some black dots on the drawing and said, "Those are stars . This is a tree . This the gra.s.s…"

Lin Fan still couldn't understand it . It wasn't that he was bad at understanding drawings but in her drawing, the gra.s.s was taller than the tree . That didn't make any sense . "Lil' Yuan Yuan, why is the gra.s.s taller than the tree? Gra.s.s is supposed to be short . "

"Uncle Lin, the little tree hasn't grown up yet . Then gra.s.s has grown up, of course it's taller than the tree," Lil' Yuan Yuan said .

"What is this dark, big, round dot?" Lin Fan didn't get it . He wasn't trying to be humble but he really couldn't understand it .

"This is a rock . A very very big rock . " Lil' Yuan Yuan extended her arms to emphasize the size of the rock . It was really a very very big rock .

Lin Fan nodded, "Not bad, not bad . You drew really well . You have the style of an abstract expert . "

When she received this compliment, Lil' Yuan Yuan smiled delightedly, then returned to her seat to continue on her abstract art piece .

The other children saw that Lil' Yuan Yuan had been praised and were all eager to show their own paintings . They all brought their artworks forward for Uncle Lin to see .

Lin Fan maintained his temper . He could say that out of ten drawings, he could barely understand five of them . He had no idea how children saw things in their minds . Why was it that when they represented those things on drawings, they all looked extremely weird?

Something that was clearly a tree was said to be a man by the children .

Abstract . It was really too abstract .

"Hey . " Suddenly, Lin Fan became silent as he thought of something .

"I have an idea . " Lin Fan smiled, then said to Han Lu, "Take care of the children for a moment . I'm going out for a while . "

Outside .

Lin Fan gave a call to Zheng Zhong Shan . The call was answered .

"Elder Lin, a few days ago, we went to Shanghai to look for you but you weren't around . It was only afterwards that we found out that you went to volunteer as a doctor . Why is it that everytime I call you, your number is not available?" said Elder Zheng .

They had just reached Shanghai when Lin Fan had left . And the reason they came to Shanghai was to thank Lin Fan but who would have known that he wouldn't be around .

Lin Fan blushed . "I'm sorry, Elder Zheng, I didn't notice . But let's not talk about this for now . I want to ask you for a favor . "

Elder Zheng smiled, "Tell me, what is it?"

"You know about WeChat, right? You see, I don't know anyone from there . You have connections in Beijing . Could you give me an introduction? I want to get some help from the people at WeChat," said Lin Fan .

Elder Zheng didn't know what Elder Lin wanted but he said, "WeChat, eh? I don't know about that . Wait a moment, my son is around right now . I'll let him speak to you . He's a young man and he knows things like these . Even if you tell me all this, I wouldn't know . But don't worry . Whether he knows them or not, as long as that person is in Beijing, he'll take care of it for you . "

Lin Fan smiled, "Thank you, Elder Zheng . "

"What's there to thank me for? We should be thanking you . You're our family's savior," said Elder Zheng . "Alright, I'll pa.s.s my phone to my son . Ask him . You can just call him Lil' Zheng . "

Zheng Hai Feng was very grateful towards this Master Lin . His son, Lil' Bao, was only able to recover his health thanks to Master Lin . When he received the phone, he said gratefully .

"Master Lin, I'm Zheng Hai Feng . About that matter involving my son, my wife and I thank you on behalf of him . "

Lin Fan said with a smile, "No need to be courteous . Lil' Zheng, I want to ask you if you know the person-in-charge of WeChat . I want to ask him for a favor . "

Zheng Hai Feng said, "I don't know him . But is he in Beijing?"

Lin Fan said, "I just checked on the Internet . He is indeed in Beijing . His name is Zhang Long . "

"Then it'll be easy . Master Lin, wait half an hour for me . In half an hour, I'll call you back . I'm going to get someone to invite him over," said Zheng Hai Feng . As long as someone was in Beijing, it didn't matter who it was, Zheng Hai Feng could invite him over . He didn't even ask Master Lin what he wanted .

Lin Fan blushed a little . That was a little too much, wasn't it? Inviting someone over so simply .

At a certain technological company in Beijing .

This was the place that was responsible for WeChat's operations and it was a large company with WeChat under its banner . At that moment, WeChat's person-in-charge, Zhang Long was in the middle of a meeting, discussing the development plans for WeChat .

Then, his secretary came . She had a slight look of astonishment on her face .

Zhang Long raised an eyebrow, "We're having a meeting . Why did you come in?"

The secretary said, "Chief Zhang, someone is downstairs looking for you . They need you to go out for a while . "

Zhang Long frowned, "Can't you see that we're having a meeting? If there's anything, wait till the meeting is over before telling me . Get out . "

The secretary shook her head, "No, Chief Zhang, it's the military looking for you . They want you to go down now . "

Zhang Long was startled . Why was the military looking for him? He was just a communications software developer . He wasn't some weapons researcher . What did they want from him?

But without thinking too much, he nodded and put the meeting on hold . Then, he left the place .

Downstairs .

"My fellow comrades, what do you need?" asked Zhang Long curiously .

"Nice to meet you, Mister Zhang . We've been told by a senior official to invite you to come with us . These are our IDs . You can check them if you want," said the soldiers .

Zhang Long looked closely, then asked someone to check the IDs for him . They were indeed real . But Zhang Long was becoming more and more puzzled . What the heck was going on?

He didn't seem to know any military people, nor had he interacted with any . However, he would find out if he went with them .

He wasn't afraid of following the military but he was afraid that these people might be scammers . After all, kidnapping cases were common . Now that he had confirmed their ident.i.ties, there was no need to worry .

In the car .

Zhang Long looked at his surroundings, then asked curiously, "My comrades, I wonder what your senior official is finding me for?"

"We don't know about that . We were just ordered to come and bring you there," said one of the soldiers .

Zhang Long was a little restless . He realized that he had reached a place with rather high security . It was a place that normal people wouldn't be able to enter .

On the way there, he kept thinking if he knew anyone in the military . Otherwise, why would something like this happen?

At the entrance .

"Please enter . " The man guarding the entrance opened it .

Zhang Long nodded, then went in .

When Zheng Hai Feng saw him, he instantly smiled . "You must be the person-in-charge of WeChat, Zhang Long . "

"I am . You are…?" Zhao Long looked at Zheng Hai Feng with a puzzled expression . He didn't know this man . Then, he looked around his surroundings . When he saw Zheng Zhong Shan, his expression changed drastically .

Zhang Long was in charge of WeChat . In the past, all the WeChat promotions or news published were all overseen by him . When he saw that old man by the side, his heart started thumping furiously .

"Isn't this…"

At that moment, Zhang Long was dumbfounded . This old man was frequently on their WeChat news . He was a major figure!

What had Zhang Long committed to be called over here?

At that moment, Zhang Long didn't dare to take a single breath . He asked weakly, "Did I do something wrong?"
