Chapter 109 Threat
The successful trial of the diesel engine, which boasts low fuel consumption, better performance, and is convenient and lightweight, immediately caused a nationwide sensation.
Especially with the late rice harvest approaching in rural areas, this lightweight and advanced diesel engine configuration can significantly improve production efficiency.
The Shanghai Machinery Research Institute was smug and immediately called Director Jiang to boast about it.
Director Jiang sat in Commander Tang's office, puzzled, and complained, "Old Tang, how did it become their achievement?"
"We personally witnessed Comrade Su Meng write down the data."
Suddenly, he slapped his forehead. "No! I have to find that thief and give Comrade Su Meng justice."
He came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
Before Commander Tang could say a word, he left like the wind.
"That old Chiang Kai-shek is still as impulsive as ever." Commander Tang shook his head and chuckled, then dialed a number.
On the other side, Sun Qiao struggled to carry her suitcase out of the family quarters.
She went to the logistics department of Zhou City First People's Hospital, the unit that Sister-in-law Nie had introduced to her.
Although she left the Nie family home reluctantly, she felt much better after seeing her workplace.
This is the best opportunity to get close to Nie Ronghua.
My cousin finally did something good!
As night fell, Sun Qiao had just finished handing over the work to someone and was preparing to wait outside Nie Ronghua's ward for an opportunity.
But as soon as he reached the corner, he was blocked by a man wearing a mask and hat. "Stop! Behave yourself."
A knife was pressed against her lower back.
Sun Qiao was so startled that she almost fell over.
He asked in a panic, "Brother... what are your orders?"
“Go and lure the people away from Su Meng’s room, or I will report you for betraying information.”
Upon hearing this, Sun Qiao trembled violently, a chill running from the soles of her feet all the way to the top of her head.
What exactly does he know? How could he... know about betraying information?
You did it very discreetly that time, didn't you?
Sun Qiao: "...Okay!"
But she knew that even if she hated Su Meng and wished for her to die immediately, she could not get herself tainted.
Her goal this time was to win over Nie Ronghua; she couldn't afford any unforeseen complications.
Sun Qiao walked towards Su Meng's ward in deep thought, praying all the way that Su Meng was alone in the ward.
However, to her disappointment, she heard not only Huo Zhenhua's voice, but also another man's voice.
It was that ghostly man who grabbed her in one swift motion.
She resisted the urge to run away, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door: "The doctor is making his rounds."
Upon hearing this, the room fell silent!
Su Meng toyed with a strand of hair, smiling as she looked at the man with a gloomy expression. "She's really interesting!"
Huo Zhenhua's eyes turned cold and sharp. He turned to look at the door, then abruptly stood up. "I'll go and send them away!"
His steps were heavy, and his whole body exuded a chilling aura.
The door was flung open with a "whoosh," and the voice was as cold as ice: "Are you kidding me? Get out!"
He stared coldly and ruthlessly at Sun Qiao, his tall figure blocking the doorway.
Sun Qiao didn't mind at all, and slipped under his arm like an eel, saying in a low and urgent voice, "I've been threatened! Someone wants me to lure you away to kill Su Meng."
Although that person didn't explicitly say what he intended to do to Su Meng, it's probably pretty much what he meant.
To complete the task, she had to exaggerate.
Huo Zhenhua's gloomy gaze fixed on her, enveloping her like a searchlight in an interrogation room, revealing her panic and fear.
Are you telling the truth?
Sun Qiao rolled her eyes at him. "Of course it's true! What good would it do me to lie to you?"
Then, she smiled slyly, "Do you think I still have feelings for you?"
Don't worry! I'm not that pathetic, I won't pester you.
Su Meng rested her chin on her hand, her watery eyes as calm as a still lake, and looked at Sun Qiao indifferently, "Don't you want to use someone else to do your dirty work?"
"Once you miss this opportunity, you'll never have another one!"
Sun Qiao took two steps back, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and the hem of her clothes in her hands twisted out of shape.
He growled angrily, "You're slandering me! I didn't!"
She glanced fearfully at Ah Da, who seemed to blend into the air, and quickly explained, "I just couldn't stand you, and I was just being stubborn in a fit of anger."
"It's not worth killing you; I don't want to pay with my life."
Su Meng chuckled, raising an eyebrow. "Oh! So what's this scheme all about?"
Sun Qiao was furious, her expression changing several times. She glared at her fiercely, then turned around and said, "Believe it or not!"
Their voices became shrill, and they walked out with heavy steps, carrying a desperate, do-or-die attitude.
Ah Da didn't say anything, waved to Huo Zhenhua, and then closed his eyes.
Huo Zhenhua stared intently at Su Meng, his fists clenched at the seams of his trousers, and said earnestly, "Don't be afraid! I'll always be here!"
Su Meng glanced up at him, then quickly nodded and looked away. "Okay!"
This person... has a very strong sense of responsibility; he'll probably turn around and come back in as soon as he leaves.
She pursed her lips, and as the door closed, she saw that military green color disappear. Thinking of what he had said to Ah Da, she felt a little... excited.
Five minutes later, the window clicked.
Su Meng turned her head in surprise and saw a pistol peeking out from her sleeve.
"It's me!"
Huo Zhenhua jumped in, looked at Su Meng reassuringly, and then his eyes lit up when he saw Ah Da, who remained unmoved.
"Uncle! You are this one."
Ah Da's lips curled up slightly.
Half an hour later, he whispered, "Coming!"
On the other side, Sun Qiao hid at the corner of the stairs and waited for half an hour, but did not see that person appear.
Sun Qiao's face turned cold as she walked upstairs to Nie Ronghua's ward, her expression one of disappointment.
But as soon as she arrived at Nie Ronghua's ward, she heard fighting sounds and muffled groans coming from Su Meng's room.
She turned and ran downstairs.
His footsteps were hurried and heavy, accompanied by heavy breathing.
A series of noises startled Nie Ronghua, who anxiously instructed the guard, Xiao Liu, "Go check it out! It looks like Su Meng's room."
Xiao Liu hesitated for a moment, then immediately ran outside.
When he passed Sun Qiao, he took a special look at her.
Sun Qiao, panting, pointed to Su Meng's room, "Hurry! The commotion is coming from there."
Xiao Liu looked at her suspiciously.
This Comrade Sun was causing trouble in Su Meng's room this morning, but now he's worried about Su Meng.
Women's hearts are truly unfathomable!
I really can't understand what they're thinking.
At this moment, Sun Qiao's fear and panic were not fake at all.
Hearing that Su Meng's room had quieted down, she became more anxious than anyone else.
His legs moved like wheels of fire, almost catching up with Xiao Liu.
The words of the man in the hat threatening her could still be faintly heard in her ears.
At this sensitive time, even without concrete evidence that she betrayed information, the fact that it came from that person's mouth would still lead to her being taken in for investigation and interrogation.
She was scared!
Panic!
He shoved Xiao Liu aside.
"Su Meng, are you alright?"
Her nervousness was genuine; her eyes darted around as she entered the room.
When she looked at the motionless man on the ground, her shoulders, which had been taut as a line, relaxed and slumped down.
Su Meng took in all her changes, her eyes growing colder and colder.
