Chapter 98 Are you implying that I'm a jinx?

"Take him to the police station!"

They are nothing more than pawns in someone else's game, here to harass and intimidate.

Su Meng thought that if they were enemies of the Su family, they would have kidnapped her or shot her long ago, and would not have done such a childish thing.

Thinking about the people he would offend after returning to China, he would only think of Zhong Wanrou, who was on the run abroad, or the arrogant Sun Qiao.

This seems to be the work of Sun Qiao.

hehe!

Even if they learn the mastermind behind it from these thugs, the most they'll do is give them some ideological education or have them write a self-criticism and apology.

None of these are what she wants.

What she wanted was... a fatal blow.

Watching the police car drive away, Xie Changsheng gave Su Meng a deep look, "You're so calm!"

Su Meng shrugged. "Then should I cry?"

She hadn't expected Xie Changsheng to rush over so quickly.

If she hadn't wanted to avoid revealing her skills, she would have been prepared to capture them all.

Guo Jiacheng, who was in charge of receiving them at Zhoushi Shipyard, said with emotion: "These hooligans on the street are lawless. They are arrested and given a few days of education, but they turn around and commit crimes again. They never change their ways."

"Comrade Su, don't be afraid! You'll be fine once you're inside our factory area."

Meanwhile, at the window of the office above the one in the Zhou City Shipyard office building.

Sun Qiao glared at her friend Yu Xiaoli playfully, "Xiaoli, stop making fun of me. By the way, when are you and Comrade Guo Jiacheng getting married?"

Yu Xiaoli glanced shyly in the direction of the R&D department and said quietly, "We were originally planning to get married on National Day."

"Well, their R&D department was overwhelmed with tasks, one after another, and they couldn't find the time, so they scheduled to get their marriage certificate for New Year's Day."

After saying that, she took a sip of tea in a somber mood and pointed out the window, "Look, your comrades from the military research institute are coming over."

He's about to jump right into the next round of work and has no time for me.

Sun Qiao peeked out and saw Su Meng and Xie Changsheng together at the shipyard.

He was puzzled. Wasn't it said that Director Jiang would bring Su Meng with him in person?

How could it be Xie Changsheng?

"Yes! That's a colleague from our research institute. Her name is Su Meng, and she's a very talented returned overseas student." She sighed as she said this, "If I had even a fraction of her talent and looks, I would have achieved my goal long ago."

"Who knows, I might have at least a platoon of admirers behind me."

Yu Xiaoli knew that Sun Qiao had always admired Nie Ronghua, but she didn't dare to confess because of her family background and appearance.

So he comforted him, saying, "Don't underestimate yourself; you're no worse than anyone else."

At the same time, it sounded an alarm bell in my heart.

People naturally admire those who are strong.

For men, especially, a woman who is both beautiful and talented is like opium to them.

Her husband, Guo Jiacheng, is not a Buddhist monk who is free from worldly desires.

When no one is around, he would shamelessly pester her for favors, looking like he wanted to devour her.

That's a... insatiable wolf!

She casually glanced at her watch, then stood up in a panic, her voice urgent, "Oh no! I have a document to deliver to the factory manager, and I only have three minutes left."

"I'm sorry, Sun Qiao, shall we meet again next time?"

Sun Qiao smiled politely and stood up. "You go ahead and do your work! I just came to see you on the way, it's nothing serious."

As she left, she deliberately turned back to look at Su Meng, who was being escorted into the R&D workshop by Guo Jiacheng and others, and a mocking smile crept onto her lips.

Oh!

What good is a talented young lady from a powerless and down-on-her-luck capitalist family?

If the matriarch of the Nie family knew that she had an affair with a man before marriage, she would definitely oppose their marriage.

In that case... her opportunity has arrived, hasn't it?

Thinking of this, she chuckled softly and turned to leave.

While Su Meng was talking to Guo Jiacheng, she keenly sensed a malice.

Looking back, all I could see was the white hem of the gatekeeper's skirt fluttering at the corner.

"Comrade Su, what are you looking at?" Guo Jiacheng asked with concern.

Su Meng shook her head. "It's alright! Let's go take a look first. Once we've carefully checked the data and completed the tests, we can start production. We can't delay the work schedule."

The report on the improvement of the diesel engine and its principles were sent over long ago, when the Firearms Research Institute and Zhou City Shipyard reached a cooperation agreement.

They had already built the modified diesel engine casing and prepared all the parts, waiting for Su Meng to inspect the wiring and other important parts before they began assembly.

Guo Jiacheng wholeheartedly agreed, "Thank you for your help, Comrade Su and Comrade Xie!"

Their Zhou City Shipyard not only builds ships, but also owns its own machinery factory and diesel engine factory.

Although Su Meng's diesel engine is an improvement for agricultural machinery, if it is successfully tested, it will be a major advancement in the field of diesel engines.

This means that their shipyard is ahead of the industry in diesel power.

They couldn't wait to see the day of success.

However, before Guo Jiacheng led Su Meng and Xie Changsheng back to the R&D department, they unexpectedly found that the large padlock on the door had fallen to the ground and the metal door was ajar.

A bad feeling welled up inside me.

Guo Jiacheng pushed open the metal door and saw a mess on the ground.

The originally neatly arranged parts were deliberately damaged, and the coils were maliciously torn.

Even the specially made fuel injection pump was smashed.

"This is...this is...call the police!" Guo Jiacheng turned and rushed out of the room, shouting outside.

The shouts immediately alerted the people nearby.

Some people watched, while others ran to call security or report to their superiors.

Standing at the back of the crowd, Su Meng said dejectedly, "It looks like we won't be able to go back today. Luckily, I left a message for my family saying that the return date is uncertain."

Xie Changsheng glanced at her teasingly, "Perhaps God is helping you fulfill your wish."

"Are you implying that I'm a jinx?" Su Meng glanced at him sideways. "Can I ask you something out of curiosity? When you were in the research institute, you were so taciturn, making people feel that you were aloof and difficult to get along with."

Xie Changsheng raised his chin arrogantly, "I don't want to talk, so I won't. Who can stop me?"

Su Meng: "...You're the boss, so you're right."

The R&D workshop was maliciously vandalized, and the factory leadership took the matter very seriously.

Even the Cheng family at Zhou City Shipyard were alarmed.

At that moment, Su Meng and Xie Changsheng, accompanied by Guo Jiacheng, had just come out of the workshop and were heading to the canteen when they saw a small black car with a cold, gleaming finish brake suddenly and stop outside the workshop gate.

"Guo Jiacheng, tell me how this happened?"

The car's back door opened, and a long leg clad in dark striped trousers stepped out, gleaming black leather shoes touching the ground, followed by a questioning voice.

Guo Jiacheng's expression immediately changed, and he was no longer as calm as before.

He jogged forward, respectfully held the car door, and said in a slightly flustered voice, "Factory Director, I swear, I carefully locked the door when I went to pick up the researcher."

But for some reason, when I came back, I found the lock on the floor and everything was destroyed. I really don't know why!

He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. "Factory manager, we must catch the thief. Our diesel engine is just one step away from completing the test."

He lowered his head and spoke hastily.

I waited for a long time, but I didn't hear a reply from the factory manager.

He glanced at them furtively and saw that they were the ones who had the final say, and the usually domineering factory director was stunned.

"Factory manager?"

He whispered something.
