At midnight, Bai Feiming's office lights were still on.
Bai Feiming sat upright in her office chair, leisurely sipping her coffee.
Chen Shu and several other responsible persons stood to the side.
This time, even the Logistics Department Minister, Fatty Sun, came.
However, he was so busy with logistics that he was completely unaware of what had happened.
Wu Lao Er reported first: "Currently, a total of 18 men intend to leave the construction site directly during tomorrow's lunch break. Their plan is..."
After reporting, Wu Lao Er glanced at Chen Shu beside him and said to Bai Feiming with a fawning smile, "This is all thanks to Minister Chen. The hundreds of listening devices he provided are really useful. Now we can monitor every move within the base."
Fatty Sun was initially confused as to why he had to come to the meeting so late.
Upon hearing Wu Lao Er's report, his eyes widened in anger, and he exclaimed, "What the hell?! These traitors! They've only had a few days of good food in this wonderful place, and they're already thinking of running away?!"
Bai Feiming glared at Fatty Sun and said calmly to Wang Xi beside her, "Wang Xi, explain the situation to Minister Sun and tell him about the large base."
Sun Pangzi was terrified by Bai Feiming's gaze and quickly followed Wang Xi to the side to whisper to each other.
Bai Feiming then looked at Wu Lao Er and asked thoughtfully, "Are they all men? No women involved?"
Wu Lao Er shook his head and said, "There are no women! The women are very satisfied with the base. Some women even scolded the men when they heard them praising other bases. One woman named Yu Beibei almost got into a fight with a man. I was worried that she would alert the other men, so I locked her up."
After a pause, Wu Lao Er said hesitantly, "There are still some men complaining about the rule that doesn't allow men in the logistics department to pursue women, but they didn't participate in the plan for these 18 people."
Bai Feiming smiled slightly and said, "These people are quite bold, making quite a commotion. Let the waves wash away the sand, let them make a fuss, so I can know who the real gold is."
"Madam Bai is very thoughtful."
Wu Lao Er seized the opportunity to flatter him.
However, Bai Feiming was clearly unmoved by this, saying calmly, "No need to take action tonight. Keep an eye on these people tomorrow morning. Besides, we might be able to lure out others..."
After Bai Feiming finished speaking, Fatty Sun, who already understood what had happened, walked over and shouted, "Miss, these ungrateful bastards should all be executed!"
"Our base may have fewer people right now, but it's safe! And we have plenty of supplies! Most importantly, we have such a great leader. It will definitely develop much better than other bases in the future!"
As he spoke, Fatty Sun glared at the others, including Gan Wei and Chen Si, who were women.
Bai Feiming knew exactly what Fatty Sun was thinking, and couldn't help but smile and say, "Alright, everyone standing here is the most trustworthy person. Minister Sun, stop fooling around."
Fatty Sun chuckled sheepishly, "Miss, I'm just telling the truth."
Wu Lao Er looked at Sun Pangzi with envy.
It's all flattery; what you just said is as good as nothing.
Minister Sun is clearly different; his level is truly high.
Even Madam Bai was amused.
No wonder he became the Minister of Logistics and was even granted his first villa.
The meeting ended at 1 a.m.
All was silent, and it was pitch black all around.
Only a few lights were on at the Huaxi Valley base, which stood out particularly in the darkness.
Accompanied by Wu Lao Er, Chen Si arrived at the small room where Yu Beibei was being held.
The room was very small; it was a small cleaning room with nothing inside except for a faucet and a mop.
Yu Beibei was leaning against the wall, sulking.
Upon seeing Chen Si, her eyes lit up, and she was about to step forward and hug Chen Si to tell her about her grievances.
Upon seeing Wu Lao Er behind Chen Si, Yu Beibei instantly flew into a rage.
Before Yu Beibei could speak, Wu Lao Er laughed loudly, "Haha, what a misunderstanding! Miss Yu, I really didn't know you were Team Leader Chen's best friend. Please forgive me for my rudeness."
Yu Beibei's eyebrows shot up, her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she angrily cursed, "You Wu Lao Er, no wonder even the leader calls you Lao Er, you really are an idiot! That guy is a moron, belittling our base and praising other bases, we should have beaten him to death! And you! You locked me up!"
Wu Lao Er glanced at Chen Si awkwardly and whispered, "Team Leader Chen, could you please help explain?"
Chen Si smiled and nodded, then walked to Yu Beibei's side, took her hand and said, "Let's go, we can talk as we walk."
Before leaving, Yu Beibei turned back and glared angrily at Wu Lao Er.
Wu Lao Er scratched his head.
This little girl is quite pretty, but she has a bit of a temper.
Once they reached the dormitory door, Chen Si said softly, "Beibei, you really misunderstood Team Leader Wu this time."
Yu Beibei asked in confusion, "Why? That man was so awful that I couldn't help but hit him."
Chen Si sighed and said, "Beibei, do you know why I didn't choose you to be a member of the security team?"
Yu Beibei nodded and said, "I know, you told me that I'm a bit impulsive."
Chen Si looked at Yu Beibei, hesitating several times as if she wanted to say something.
Finally, he said softly, "Alright, I won't say much more about your personality. After all, it's hard to change one's personality. But the reason Team Leader Wu locked you up this time is because he was afraid you would make a big fuss and alert the enemy. I can't tell you the specifics yet, you'll know tomorrow."
Yu Beibei gasped, her face instantly turning pale. She cried out in alarm, "Did I do something wrong?"
Chen Si put her arm around Yu Beibei's shoulder and comforted her, "No, you don't need to worry."
Yu Beibei patted her chest, still shaken, and said, "Thank goodness, I was almost scared to death. If I had ruined the base's plans, I would have died with regrets."
Hearing Yu Beibei's choice of words, Chen Si smiled helplessly.
Just then, the door next to them opened, and Xiao Dan came out of the room.
Upon seeing Yu Beibei, she exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Beibei, I thought you were going to be locked up for a few days. I didn't expect you to be out!"
Yu Beibei asked in confusion, "Xiao Dan, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Xiao Dan sighed and said, "I can't sleep because of that guy. I remember he was almost starving when he first came here. Now he's eating our food but he's belittling our base and praising other bases instead. He's so annoying."
She then looked at Chen Si and said indignantly, "Sister Si, you are the head of the security team. Can you grab that man and give him a good beating? It would be best to break his mouth so he can't speak."
Chen Si smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Dan, I can't make decisions on my own. Let's get some sleep first. Maybe your wish will come true."
"All right."
