Chapter 562

Su Yuanzheng, who felt deeply that his daughter had suffered, started preparing when Su Miao went out to take a bath.

I made a table full of delicious dishes and stewed some hot chicken soup. The aroma was so delicious that it would make you dizzy.

"Miao Miao, what do you eat on the construction site? Are you full?"

"Dad, don't worry! We are going to a national key project. Although it is called a practical class, we are really helping with the work, and the salary given by the superiors is not bad.

There are dedicated people to prepare three meals a day, so not only can we eat enough, but the food is also delicious, with plenty of meat, vegetables and big steamed buns.

The cook is from Northeast China. She makes great stews and often makes pancakes and baked sweet potatoes. You don't have to worry about food at all."

"Hahaha! You've only been there for a few days, how can you say it's a regular thing? Maybe they gave you extra food because you're young."

"I also heard from my seniors that although working on the construction site is harder, the food is better than in the company cafeteria."

"Then I'm relieved. Do you have enough rest time? You're still students, so we won't make you work day and night, right?"

"We had plenty of rest time. We were woken up at 8:30 a.m., went to the construction site at 10 a.m., and had a two-hour lunch break.

It gets dark quickly now, and we finish the tour at 5pm. We actually feel bored because we have so much rest time.”

"That's good, that's good. You can come back one more day this weekend. When you go tomorrow, pack some extra braised food to bring back as an extra dish for your leaders and classmates.

If you encounter any difficulties, be sure to tell your teacher. Teachers will always appreciate it if you speak sweetly."

Although Su Yuanzheng knew that his daughter was very capable, he still gave her instructions with concern.

"I know, Dad. Don't worry."

In the past few days, Su Yuanzheng has already secured a car.

It was a second-hand Jetta, which cost more than 140,000 yuan when it was new.

It has been driven for three years for personal use. It is usually only used in the city and is well maintained. Now Su Yuanzheng has spent more than 70,000 yuan to buy it.

However, Su Yuanzheng still failed to fulfill his wish of driving his daughter to the construction site because he did not know the road.

He didn't recognize her, and Miao didn't recognize her either. It would be a waste of time to ask along the way. It would be better to go to the gathering point and take the company bus.

I drove my daughter to the entrance of her workplace, and the bus was already waiting there.

The bus will depart at a certain time. Some employees live near the bus route, so they will wait there and be picked up by the bus when it passes by.

Su Miao was carrying a bag with spare clothes on her back, and Su Yuanzheng was following behind her with a large bag of lunch boxes filled with braised food and fried lemon duck.

Although they are freshly made, they must be cold when they arrive in the middle of winter. However, these two things are not afraid of being reheated, so just ask the logistics aunt to heat them up.

After placing the things beside Su Miao's legs, Su Yuanzheng went to hand a cigarette to the driver who was soaking wolfberries in a thermos.

The driver smiled and took out one of the shoes and put it on his ear, then asked him if he was a student's parent, and said:

"You're only a freshman and you're already involved in the project. You're definitely an excellent talent. Brother, you don't have to worry about the future. You can be directly assigned to the Cultural Relics Bureau~"

Su Yuan was smiling happily, but he was secretly muttering in his heart:

If I have to dig all the time when I go to the Cultural Relics Bureau, I might as well go home and collect the money.

However, he certainly didn't show this idea on his face. When he got out of the car, he put an unopened pack of Zhongnanhai on the dashboard.

The cooked dishes Su Miao brought back from the yard made everyone lively again, just like a dinner party. Director Zhang even drove to the convenience store in the nearby village to buy some wine and drinks.

There were few choices, but it was nice to have them. Su Miao had already eaten at home, so he had a few drinks and some dishes.

Feeling that the drink was a bit too sweet, she drank another large glass of warm water. As a result, she woke up in the middle of the night because she had to urinate.

The moonlight enveloped the earth like a veil. Su Miao curled up in the warm quilt like a shrimp, and the bloating and pain in his lower abdomen became more and more intense.

They usually go to the toilet together before going to bed. Young people have good kidneys and rarely get up at night. This is the first time Su Miao has wanted to pee in the middle of the night since coming here.

It was especially quiet late at night in the suburbs. The students' breathing sounds came and went. Everyone was sleeping soundly, and it would be inappropriate to wake anyone up at this time.

Su Miao gritted his teeth and crawled out of the quilt. It would be too outrageous if he really wet the bed at such a grown-up age.

She fumbled for the flashlight, turned it on, and looked at the watch on the table. It was three o'clock in the morning.

After putting on his coat and shoes, Su Miao pushed the door open quietly and walked out.

The cold wind instantly blew into her collar, making her shiver uncontrollably. She wrapped her coat tightly and walked quickly to the bathroom.

The flashlight beam swayed with her footsteps, like a candle flame blown to and fro by the wind.

The wind, carrying the howling of the distant wild forest, blew the wooden door of the dry toilet, which was not closed properly, making it creak. The moonlight leaking through the gap in the door looked like the squinting eyes of some creature, revealing a chilling aura.

Su Miao's palms, which were holding the flashlight, broke out in cold sweat, and the metal casing became hot from being held.

After satisfying his physiological needs, Su Miao just wanted to return to the warm room as soon as possible.

But just as she turned around, a thin rustling sound came from behind her, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, and it drilled into her ears.

After she walked into the back door of the courtyard, she couldn't help but turn around and shine the flashlight in the direction of the sound.

Every nerve in her body was as tense as a fully drawn bowstring, and she could clearly hear her own violent heartbeat, "boom, boom, boom," especially loud in the silent night.

That was the grass next to the toilet. When the light was shone back, the noise disappeared.

She breathed a sigh of relief, her tense body relaxed a little, and she was about to turn around and leave.

“Crash—”

The grass suddenly shook violently, as if something was about to jump out of it.

"Bang!"

Su Miao slammed the door and ran to the room in a hurry. After entering the room, he slipped into the quilt and covered himself tightly from head to toe.

She felt like she had broken out in a cold sweat just from this short journey. A drop of sweat slid down her spine, and the hairs on the back of her neck stood on end.

Because the weather was cold, they had started heating the kang, and the warm heat made her gradually relax.

The noise of her entering the room woke up Wang Xinyue who was next to her. She opened her eyes in a daze, but it was dark and she couldn't see anything clearly.

She reached out her hand and patted Su Miao gently, her voice still filled with sleepiness: "Miao Miao, did you go to the bathroom?"

Su Miao was still huddled tightly in the quilt. Wang Xinyue heard her muffled voice say, "Yeah, it's so cold outside. I just saw a small animal... well, it could have been a big animal."
