Not only did Lin Ye's mouth twitch, but all his facial muscles twitched.
Everyone looked at Lin Ye, "Lin Ye, tell us, what is your relationship with Dr. Meng?"
The little flame of gossip among everyone was burning again.
Lin didn't know how to answer and his face turned red.
Everyone laughed and asked, "Are you two dating?"
Meng Yiming nudged Lin Ye's arm and said, "Everyone is asking you, tell them."
Lin Ye blushed, "I guess so!"
"Oh...!!!" Everyone clapped and cheered.
Lin Ye quickly opened the car door and sat in the seat, and Meng Yiming followed with a smile.
Lin Ye sat in her seat, her face red and breathing heavily. She had never experienced such an embarrassing scene since she was a child.
If she had known what would happen, she would never have helped.
Meng Yiming comforted Lin Ye, "You don't have to feel shy. People will be curious in the first two days, but once the novelty wears off, they won't ask anymore."
Lin Ye complained, "Why do you want me to answer? Why don't you just tell them yourself?"
Meng Yiming looked innocent, "I'm not afraid of regretting it, so I'm giving you the right to speak."
"Am I the kind of person who doesn't keep his word?!"
Meng Yiming: "Okay, okay, I'll answer next time."
An hour later, the car arrived at the exploration point, everyone got off and started to get busy.
Meng Yiming didn't understand the work of the exploration team, so he sat alone under a tree to enjoy the cool air.
He also brought a book and sat there reading.
Although Lin is also a senior technician and does not need to participate in those heavy work, she is only responsible for testing with instruments. However, working outdoors in such high temperatures, she is sweating profusely in less than half an hour.
Each team member wore a safety helmet and had a towel on the back of their neck to wipe sweat at any time.
Lin was also wearing a yellow safety helmet and doing the test attentively. He wiped his sweat with a towel from time to time and talked to the assistants beside him. One assistant was responsible for taking notes, and the other two assistants were responsible for the instruments and equipment.
Everyone was busy all morning and it was time for lunch.
Everyone's lunch was compressed dry food, and Lin also sat with the team members and ate the dry food without any hesitation.
Meng Yiming came over, unscrewed the lid of the cup, and handed the cup to Lin Ye, "Xiao Ye, drink some water, don't choke."
Everyone looked at them with excited eyes.
Lin Ye, who was not choking at first, choked. She stiffened her neck and her face turned red.
No! Is falling in love so complicated?
If she is thirsty, she will find water to drink by herself. Is it necessary to come over and bring her water?
"See, you choked. I told you to drink some water." Meng Yiming stuffed the water cup into Lin Ye's hand, then stroked her back with his hand.
Lin was even more choked up, feeling embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Her face flushed as she jumped up and stood three feet away from Meng Yiming. She raised her water cup and gulped down a few mouthfuls before finally swallowing the dry food.
"Doctor Meng..." Lin Ye endured the pain and said, "Let's go to a distant place to talk about something."
Everyone looked at each other with a look of "we understand".
Lin Ye's face became even hotter.
She had blushed less times than she had today in her life.
Dr. Meng followed Lin to a distance, and everyone's gossipy eyes were still on the two of them.
Lin also said seriously: "Doctor Meng, although we are pretending to be in love, we should not interfere in each other's affairs!"
Meng Yiming said innocently, "I don't care about your business."
"Just now!" Lin didn't know whether he was angry or shy, his face flushed again, "I'm thirsty, I'll find some water to drink, don't bring me water!"
Meng Yiming looked sad. "I saw you were choking on your dry food, so I gave you some water out of kindness. Did I make you angry?"
Lin Ye: "...I'm not angry, it's just that there's no need for this, you know? We're all adults now, we can do these things on our own!"
Meng Yiming lowered his eyes, said nothing, and felt very aggrieved.
Lin Ye said in one go, "Also, just call me Lin Ye, don't call me Xiao Ye!"
She had wanted to say this since Meng Yiming called her Xiaoye for the first time. After holding it in for the whole morning, she finally had to say it.
Meng Yiming raised his eyes, his eyes were full of hurt, "So, you regret pretending to be in love with me?"
"No!" Lin Ye answered immediately.
"Then you don't allow this, and you don't allow that?" Meng Yiming said, "Don't people in love care about each other? You haven't been in love, but you've seen others do it."
Lin Ye said honestly: "I never paid attention to other people's love affairs."
Meng Yiming said: "At least you have seen how your brother and your sister-in-law care about each other."
Lin Ye: “…”
Yes! Her brother is very caring and kind to his sister-in-law. Not only does he offer her a glass of water, but he even wants to do it for her even when she needs to pee.
Meng Yiming continued, "Since this is a show, we have to do it well. Otherwise, if everyone sees the trick, all our efforts will be in vain."
"It's definitely going to be hard to get used to it in the first few days. I'm not used to it either, but we have to adapt slowly. Since you promised to help me, you have to help me to the end. If you give up halfway, it will make it harder for me, won't it?"
Lin was also a little annoyed, "I didn't know falling in love could be so complicated."
"Get used to it slowly. It's like accumulating experience for you. If you want to fall in love in the future, you'll have to go through this as well."
Lin Ye: “…”
Meng Yiming said, "Let's go. Everyone is watching us. They will think you are bullying me."
Lin Ye walked back side by side with Meng Yiming with an expressionless face.
As he walked in front of everyone, someone asked, "Lin Ye, are you bullying our Doctor Meng again?"
Doctor Meng smiled and said, "Of course! You have to help me."
Instead of denying it, it is better to say this, so that people will not think that Lin Ye bullied him.
Lin Ye sat down and continued to eat her dry food. Meng Yiming sat next to her and also picked up the dry food and ate it.
"Doctor Meng, why did you start dating quietly? We were not prepared at all!" someone joked.
Meng Yiming replied: "We are in love, what are you preparing for?"
"Be mentally prepared!"
Meng Yiming said, "I thought you had prepared thoroughly enough in the past three months. Can't you see that I'm pursuing Xiaoye?"
Everyone suddenly realized that this seemed to be the case, except that the way of chasing was a little unique.
It was also the first time for them to see a man pursuing a girl, and he did so by asking the girl to help him wash clothes and dishes.
Lin also listened and thought to himself, Dr. Meng is really a storyteller, everyone believes what he says!
