Urban: I Got a Space-Time Mailbox and I Can Write to My Past Self - Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Godfather

Just as Lin Xian’s little leader was boasting.

A reporter suddenly turned around and saw Lin Xian!

Her eyes widened. This body shape…This handsome face…It wouldn’t be wrong!

“Mr Lin Xian! It’s Mr Lin Xian!

When the surrounding people heard that Lin Xian had arrived, they immediately rushed over like crazy!

Lin Xian was completely surrounded.

Lin Xian’s little leader was still talking about the company’s ideas, but no one in the surroundings cared about his philosophy.

“Mr Lin Xian! I’m a reporter from XX Television Station. Can I ask about the situation?”

“Mr Lin! We are a reporter from XX University Newspaper. Our school would like to have an exclusive interview with you about your deeds of righteousness and bravery.”

“Mr Lin Xian, the child’s grandmother said that the two children fell into the river from the upper reaches and drifted down the stream. You were the one who happened to pass by the narrow bridge and saved the two children. Can you tell what you thought at that time?”

……

Countless flashlights and cameras shot Lin Xian almost blind.

However, he could only reply politely with a smile. His changed memories were still slowly merging. He was not very clear about the situation at that time.

Pfft! Pfft!……

A pair of men and women suddenly knelt, crying:

“Mr Lin Xian! Thank you for saving our daughters. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have been able to live.”

Then, the father pulled out the twin girl behind him.

“Lingling, Jingjing, this gentleman is your saviour! Call the godfather!”

“Godfather! Godfather!”

Lin Xian was so scared that he hurriedly helped the two of them up.

“I can’t… Get up, get up!”

He wasn’t married yet, how could he be someone else’s godfather!

After that, it took a long time for Lin Xian to answer the reporters’ questions.

Lin Xian replied:

“I’ve just done something that a normal person would do. Being a good citizen and helping others. I hope everyone won’t be too concerned about this matter.”

There were more than a dozen elementary school students dressed in school uniforms who gave flowers to Lin Xian.

Later, several leaders from the city also came to shake hands with Lin Xian and took a group photo, and said that they would encourage learning Lin Xian’s spirit of righteousness in various institutions and schools.

It was also said that the certificate and the banner were all being produced according to the process. After that, there would be a special award ceremony broadcasted live on the television station.

The crowd was so enthusiastic that Lin Xian couldn’t say anything. He could only politely reply with some official remarks.

After a long while, more than an hour later, the staff gradually dispersed. Lin Xian finally took a deep breath.

“Sigh…”

He took out his phone and realized that there were 37 missed calls!

They were all from his parents.

Lin Xian called his father.

“Dad, what’s wrong? It was too noisy just now. I didn’t hear it.”

“Son!!! Father is so proud of you!!!!!”

The loud voice made Lin Xian move his phone away from his ears.

“Son!!! You didn’t fail to live up to our military family’s tradition! I’ve told your grandfather a long time ago that even though you didn’t become a soldier like us, you were born in a military home. You’re definitely worthy of being my son!”

“Aiya, go away! Let me say a few words to my son!”

His mother grabbed the phone.

“Lin Xian~ it’s mother, we have all seen your video! I recognized you at a glance! Didn’t you get hurt when you saved them?”

“Don’t worry, Mom, it’s was shallow ——”

“Aiya! Mother had long said that you were the most promising person in our family! When I’m dancing in the square tonight, I’ll definitely show off to your aunties!”

……

After taking 20 minutes to deal with his parents, Lin Xian finally hung up.

Now, the WeChat icon displayed 99+.

He couldn’t be bothered to open it anymore. He went straight to the elevator, reached the 22nd floor, and entered the company.

As soon as he entered the company, the colleagues immediately stood up!

The male colleagues raised their thumbs up, their mouths full of cows!

The female colleagues had stars in their eyes and immediately surrounded him.

In the eyes of the elderly colleague, there was either a feeling of appreciation or the intention of introducing someone to Lin Xian.

“Stop! Stop! Stop!”

Lin Xian’s head was buzzing as he ran to his seat and sat down.

“Stop asking! I’m going to start working!”
