Chapter 54 Huaihua Machinery Factory 12

004 opened his mouth, wanting to ask Xingjian whether he had met his lover in this world, but he swallowed the words back when they reached his lips.

After knowing that this world is a spiritual world, Xingjian strung together the existing clues and came up with some ideas. He was afraid that the villain who caused the destruction of Huaihua Machinery Factory was a creature like a ghost.

Xingjian still had some doubts about what Feng Dajun said last night. Thinking about the timeline of the story, Xingjian felt that Li Weiguo, who arranged for him and Cheng Yan to live together, must know something, and maybe he arranged for him to live there on purpose.

Thinking of this, Xing Jian didn't care about the headache after drinking, ran to the faucet downstairs to wash his face and walked towards Li Weiguo's office.

It was working hours and there was no one on the street except the clerks working in the office building. He paused at the office door, raised his hand and knocked on Li Weiguo's office door.

"Come in." Li Weiguo's voice came from the office.

Cheng Yan pushed open the door and walked in, only to see Li Weiguo looking haggard, with his hair looking much whiter than the last time he saw him.

Li Weiguo looked up and saw that it was Xing Jian. He was a little surprised and asked, "Xiao Xing, why are you here?"

Xing Jian pretended to be angry, staring at Li Weiguo angrily and yelling, "Li Weiguo, your brother almost beat me to death, so you arranged for me to live with Cheng Yan, right?"

Listening to Xing Jian's accusation, Li Weiguo was stunned, with a puzzled look on his face. He asked angrily, "Who arranged for you to live with Cheng Yan? What nonsense are you talking about? What did I write on the note I gave to Village Chief Niu?"

Xing Jian came prepared this time. He took out the crumpled note from his trouser pocket and slapped it on Li Weiguo's desk.

But then he heard Li Weiguo laugh in anger and say, "Look for yourself what's written on it!"

Xing Jian glanced at the small note he threw on the table, his pupils suddenly shrank and he stood there in a daze. The note he took out of the dormitory and put into his pocket clearly had the dormitory number Li Weiguo gave him, but the note on Li Weiguo's desk turned out to be the one Cheng Yan left for him in the morning.

He suddenly reached out and took the note back, staring at Li Weiguo intently and said, "What if I say that the note I left is still the one you gave me?"

"Ding-ling, ding-ling~"

The sharp ring of the phone broke the silence in the office. Li Weiguo looked at Xingjian with a strange look in his eyes. He picked up the ringing microphone on the table and answered it.

The voices on the other end of the line were very noisy. Xing Jian, standing far away, could only hear the woman's heartbreaking cry coming from the receiver: "Head... Weidong's head rolled under the locust tree!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Weiguo's face turned pale. He didn't care about Xing Jian who was still in the office. He slammed the door and left without saying a word.

Xing Jian was frightened by the terrifying words of the woman on the phone, but he still returned to the dormitory alone in silence, looking at the gradually darkening sky, thinking about how to face Cheng Yan who would be back soon.

But the man still didn't show up until dark. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Xing Jian stood up and opened the door, but saw Chen Zhigang, who was always close to Cheng Yan.

He said with a strange look on his face, "Brother Cheng said he wouldn't be back tonight and asked you not to leave the door open."

Not coming back? Is he hiding from me?

"What happened?" Xing Jian's face was a little confused, and then he heard Chen Zhigang say, "Director Li and his youngest son died. Brother Cheng went to the Li family to help."

Thinking of the phone call he heard in Li Weiguo's office today, Xingjian felt a little creepy.

Xing Jian didn't see Cheng Yan for several days, but he pieced together the whole process from the words of people in the workshop.

It turned out that after Li Weidong beat himself up, Director Li sent him to boarding school. The incident happened when Director Li was driving Li Weidong to school.

It is said that the young master did not want to go to school, so he grabbed the steering wheel of Director Li in the car. The car lost control and crashed into a tree on the side of the road. He was driving at such a high speed that it was said that Director Li's head was almost thrown off.

With such a big incident happening at Huaihua Machinery Factory, the employees lost their enthusiasm at work and were wondering whether Li Weiguo would be the new factory director or whether the leadership would parachute in a new director.

Xing Jian was also worried. The death of Director Li was like the first domino to fall, and strange things happened one after another in the factory.

First, an employee was accidentally scalded by molten steel while operating in the workshop. Then, a pregnant woman fell in the factory and almost had a miscarriage.

The thing that worried Xing Jian the most was a small fire that happened just yesterday in Building 1 of the staff dormitory.

It is said that the fire was caused by someone illegally pulling electrical wires in the dormitory. Fortunately, it was discovered early and the fire was quickly put out, causing no injuries.

However, what happened soon made Xing Jian no longer care about these things - Cheng Yan came back.

During the days when Cheng Yan was away, Xing Jian deliberately put the incident behind him, but when he saw that person again, those memories that he had deliberately forgotten flooded into his heart like a tide.

Cheng Yan was carrying a bag on his back. When he pushed the door open, Xing Jian was sitting at the table looking at the drawings that Master Liu had drawn for him.

"Bang!" Cheng Yan slammed the door shut. The loud noise scared Xing Jian so much that he turned around and bumped into Cheng Yan's gloomy and terrifying eyes.

That gaze seemed to carry substantial pressure, freezing Xing Jian in place. After a moment, Cheng Yan coldly asked, "Why are you looking for Li Weiguo?"

Li Weiguo? Xing Jian looked at Cheng Yan, who was clearly not feeling well. Could it be that Li Weiguo had told Cheng Yan about what he had done to him that day?

"I just want to verify some things, I don't really want to move out." Xing Jian looked at Cheng Yan's gloomy face, and inexplicably tasted a hint of grievance from it. The slightly red corners of his eyes seemed like traces of secret crying, which made Xing Jian involuntarily explain.

As soon as the words came out, even Xingjian himself was a little surprised - his bottom line had been lowered for one person without him realizing it.

This is just a vacation world, and falling in love is also a form of vacation. Xingjian shamelessly forgot the theory of time that he had been insisting on a few days ago.

After figuring this out, Xing Jian did not intend to agree to Cheng Yan right away. He would at least wait until the mission was completed before asking 004 to stay in the small world.

After hearing Xing Jian's explanation, Cheng Yan's gloomy face softened a lot. He sat down next to Xing Jian, and the two of them said face to face: "I will tell you anything you want to know about me."
