After the meal, Chen Yu stood up and said to Lin Lele, "Lele, you can go ahead and get busy. Remember to call Liu Menghan to my office."
Just as Chen Yu was about to leave, he seemed to remember something and turned back to Lin Lele, saying, "Oh, by the way, could you also get another meal and take it to Liu Menghan?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Lele was immediately displeased. She pointed to her nose and said incredulously, "Me? Why should I? I am the commander of the militia, the number two person in Tianyu Base. You won't let me enjoy any privileges, and you want me to serve such a small fry as Xiao Liu? Isn't this going against the Heavenly Gang? Don't I have any dignity?"
"Go by yourself if you want, I'm not going to serve her!" Lin Lele said angrily and left.
Chen Yu watched Lin Lele's departing figure and shook his head helplessly.
"That brat is getting more and more disrespectful," Chen Yu muttered to himself.
"Mr. Chen, please don't be angry. Leave this to me." Niu Kesi hurriedly stood up and smiled obsequiously.
"You?" Chen Yu said in a deep voice, "Are you very free? Have you finished all your work?"
Upon hearing this, Niu Ke's face stiffened, and then he said with an awkward smile, "Then, Mr. Chen, I'll go and attend to my business first."
After saying that, he picked up his plate and slunk away, preparing to leave.
"Old Niu, think carefully about what your responsibilities really are," Chen Yu said earnestly from behind Niu Sk.
Upon hearing this, Niu Ke paused in his tracks, and then his mind began to flash rapidly through the words Chen Yu had said to him earlier that day.
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and then said to Chen Yu with a solemn expression, "Mr. Chen, I know what I should do. I have indeed gone astray during this period, and I will definitely correct myself."
"Okay." Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction. "Go ahead." Niu Si bowed deeply, then turned and strode away, his back view appearing even more determined and powerful than before.
After watching Niu Ke leave, Chen Yu declined the militiaman's offer and cleaned up his own plate.
Then, he personally went to the cafeteria's food selection area and got a meal for Liu Menghan.
The cafeteria food was buffet style, and he didn't know what Liu Menghan liked to eat. Fortunately, it was almost the end of lunchtime, and there weren't many options left. So Chen Yu picked a little of everything, put it on a clean plate, and carefully carried it toward the cafeteria exit.
Along the way, many militiamen looked on in surprise when they saw Chen Yu carrying the food tray himself.
After all, as the leader of Tianyu Base, Chen Yu usually appears so dignified and unapproachable, yet he is personally serving food and carrying the tray himself, which is truly unbelievable.
In response, Chen Yu simply gave everyone a gentle smile and didn't say anything more.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers felt a surge of fear, as if they had done something wrong. They quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look Chen Yu in the eye.
Chen Yu could only manage a wry smile upon seeing this.
He shook his head slightly and continued walking towards Liu Menghan's dormitory.
Since Liu Menghan was not part of the "Cold Relief Militia Corps," her dormitory was naturally not with the militia members.
Considering that she was one of the few women on the airship, her dormitory was arranged next to Lin Lele's private suite.
It wasn't too far from Chen Yu's room.
Not long after, Chen Yu arrived at Liu Menghan's dormitory with a tray of food.
"Knock knock knock~" Chen Yu gently knocked on Liu Menghan's dormitory door, wondering to himself if she was already in her room.
The reason he was so attentive to Liu Menghan was not for any other reason than that she had pointed out the current problems of Tianyu Base.
Although Qiao Meng noticed this problem, she couldn't find a suitable solution.
Chen Yu wanted to hear if Liu Menghan had any good suggestions or unique insights. After all, it was Liu Menghan who raised the issue, so he couldn't just reopen old wounds without offering any solutions.
Although he didn't have a very good impression of Liu Menghan, he didn't mind asking her questions out of humility so that Tianyu Base could develop well.
Soft footsteps came from inside the door, and then the door was slowly opened, revealing Liu Menghan's figure in the doorway.
When she saw Chen Yu at the door, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She lowered her head and said somewhat awkwardly, "Mr. Chen, just now... I was too impulsive. I... I shouldn't have been disrespectful to you."
Chen Yu smiled and shook his head, indicating that Liu Menghan didn't need to worry too much.
"It's alright, Xiao Liu, we don't need to mention this anymore. You haven't had lunch yet, have you? Here, I got you some food, eat it while it's hot." Chen Yu said, handing the plate to Liu Menghan.
Liu Menghan looked at the plate Chen Yu handed her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"Mr. Chen, this... this is too much trouble. You have to personally bring me food." Liu Menghan's voice was tinged with embarrassment and gratitude.
Chen Yu chuckled and said, "Don't mention it, Xiao Liu, it was just something I did."
"Thank you," Liu Menghan said softly as she took the plate, her eyes shining with sincere gratitude.
"Mr. Chen, is there anything else?" Liu Menghan asked with a hint of doubt when she saw that Chen Yu showed no intention of leaving.
Chen Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, I happen to have some things I'd like to discuss with you. I've been carefully considering the issues you mentioned before, and they are indeed quite significant."
Upon hearing this, Liu Menghan showed a surprised expression, seemingly not expecting Chen Yu to come to her because of this matter.
She turned her head slightly, making way for Chen Yu, and said, "Mr. Chen, if you don't mind, please come in and sit down."
“This…” Chen Yu hesitated.
Upon seeing this, Liu Menghan immediately understood. She went to a rest area not far away and said apologetically, "Mr. Chen, it was my oversight. Shall we go over there and talk?"
Chen Yu nodded: "Alright."
Then, as if remembering something, he coughed lightly and said, "Xiao Liu, don't misunderstand. I didn't mean to look down on you. I just think this is not good for you."
Upon hearing this, Liu Menghan subtly pursed her lips, but said, "I understand. Mr. Chen, everyone can see how considerate you are to your subordinates."
The two moved to the rest area and sat down. Liu Menghan placed the plate she was holding on the table next to her and turned her gaze back to Chen Yu.
"Hehe, Xiao Liu, don't be too reserved. Let's eat and talk, or the food will get cold." Chen Yu smiled kindly, indicating that Liu Menghan didn't need to be too nervous.
He appeared to be very approachable.
Upon hearing this, Liu Menghan had no choice but to start eating in small bites.
To be honest, the taste was really good, and the variety was great. It was even better than the food she had when she was the deputy director of the Science and Technology Department at the Haidu branch base. This made her eyes light up, and she began to chew carefully.
