Meng Si Ning took the small bag, feeling very touched: "Mom, I have money, you can keep it for yourself."

"As a girl, it's always good for you to save more money." Si Youyuan insisted.

Lin Huaci said, "Take it. These are the living expenses your mother and I prepared specifically for you."

"But you guys?"

"We don't spend much money at the institute. And we have savings. Don't worry."

Meng Si Ning could only accept it helplessly and happily. After all, it was love from her parents, and she was embarrassed to refuse.

As the family was happily eating fried chicken and drinking beer, there was a sudden commotion outside. A moment later, someone knocked on the door: "Team Leader Lin, the documents in the office have been stolen."

Uncle Lin and Mom immediately got up and left: "Stop running around, both of you. Go back to bed after dinner."

"Mom, is it serious?"

"I'm not sure yet. Be good, it's very chaotic outside now."

"Don't worry, Mom."

After Uncle Lin and Mom left, the remaining fried chicken lost its flavor. Meng Si Ning was a little worried. But the noise outside soon died down. She packed up and took her younger brother back to the room. She played Gobang with her younger brother on the bed for a while. It seemed like a peaceful night, but the people at the factory had been busy all night.

When I saw Uncle Lin and my mother the next day, they looked haggard under their eyelids.

"How is Uncle Lin?"

"We've discovered some issues and have confirmed they were made by someone in the institute. The items probably haven't been shipped out yet, so we're suspending work today while everyone awaits review."

"Review?"

"Don't worry, it's just a simple question."

"Uncle Lin, Mom, you two should go back and rest for a while."

The two of them were indeed quite tired. Meng Si Ning poured them some water to soak their feet, while Lin Si Yun went to help with the food. The couple ate before going to bed.

Before going to bed, Si Youyuan took Lin Huaci's hand and said with a smile: "Old Lin, when did these two children become so sensible?"

"After going through so much, I think things through thoroughly."

"Yeah, I'm very happy that Ningning has become like this."

"It will get better, just take a rest."

After coming out of their mother's room, the two returned to their own room. At around ten o'clock, Gu Jingshen knocked on Meng Sining's door.

"Si Ning."

"Comrade Gu, what's the matter?"

"An important document went missing from the office last night, and we're doing a routine inspection and asking some questions."

"Where should I ask?"

Gu Jingshen glanced at Zhang Cheng who was following behind him, then said to Meng Si Ning: "Right here, where were you yesterday afternoon?"

"In the afternoon, I worked with Engineer Li and Wang Xin on a machine. I helped them explain the instructions until we got off work at 5:30. My younger brother followed me all the time. Afterwards, my brother and I waited for my mother in the cafeteria. At 6:30, we had lunch at her place."

"Did you ever leave Mr. Li's side while working in the afternoon?"

"Going to the bathroom doesn't count. I went twice, but I forgot the exact time."

Gu Jingshen blushed instantly, rubbed his nose awkwardly, and said to Zhang Cheng behind him: "No problem."

Zhang Cheng nodded. He had been staying in the office for the past two days and had not seen Meng the translator go to the office.

"Translator Meng, it's best not to leave the residential area today. We'll bring you lunch at noon."

"knew."

Unexpectedly, after a while, Gu Jingshen came over personally and brought her food, two servings of rice, a portion of braised pork, a portion of vegetables, and two fried cakes.

Meng Si Ning looked at the fried cake and said, "The cafeteria also has fried cake at noon."

Gu Jingshen curled his lip and said, "I know you like it, so I asked the chef to fry it specially."

"Thanks."

"Since Lu Tuan is not here, I have to take care of everything. There are also some with Lin Gong and Si Gong. If you still need anything, remember to tell me."

"They're all very thoughtful, and there's nothing missing. Oh, I have to go back tomorrow. Comrade Gu, do you have anything to send to Xia Qiu?"

Gu Jingshen's straight legs moved slightly and said, "Yes, but if there is no result on the document issue, you may not be able to leave. But don't worry, it won't take more than two days. Once this matter is over, I will take you to the station."

"No, my family will take me there."

Gu Jingshen wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Meng Sining: "The food is getting cold, I'll go in first."

"...good."

Gu Jingshen hesitated in front of Meng Si Ning's door for a while before slowly leaving. He was not in a good mood at the moment. He didn't want to see Meng Si Ning and Lu Cheng together. He wanted to break up with Xia Qiu, but all this was impossible. He was extremely entangled every day. He couldn't understand why Si Ning chose Lu Tuan. Obviously, she and him had a tacit understanding during the two days they spent together.

He admitted that pretending to be a boyfriend and girlfriend had indeed made him fall for her. She was so dazzling and unique, any man would be unable to extricate himself from her. At that time, he was secretly glad that Lu Tuan chose to let him go and hand over to Si Ning.

Although he couldn't find her information after returning to China, he firmly believed that he would meet her again. But now, reality slapped him in the face.

If he had felt inferior before, what about now? He had status, and his father was also of high status. He could be transferred to Liang City. Wouldn't he be a better choice? But she chose Lu Cheng, the Lu Cheng who made him jealous.

He didn't want to feel jealous, but sometimes it would inexplicably come up, but he always hid it well.

After the siblings finished their meal, Lin Xiaodi fell asleep. Meng Si Ning quietly went to the space. At this moment, Jiang Tang was lying on the sofa, leisurely reading a book.

"Why are there so many more things?"
