Chapter 315: Peace (Part 2)
It would be strange if you still can't see the trick.
but……
Ordinary mines transport the smelted iron blocks out, so why is it the other way around here?
In order to conceal their tracks, they also used ore and scrap iron to cover it up and pulled it out every day.
If no one hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one would have suspected that there was something wrong with the iron blocks produced by this mine!
Ye Chutang's gaze shifted towards the supervisor who had just beaten someone. He vaguely saw that there seemed to be a door behind him, but he had no idea what was inside.
But what is certain is that all the smelted iron blocks were sent there.
"It's quite interesting that this iron ore is produced and sold by itself." Ye Chutang thought thoughtfully.
But Shen Yanchuan said nothing.
Not hearing his response, Ye Chutang tilted his head:
"What do you think—"
There was a sudden warm and cool touch on my forehead.
Ye Chutang paused.
The air around seemed to freeze. Ye Chutang blinked, but only saw the man's smooth jawline.
Chen Yanchuan was standing next to her, and his vision was farther, so he naturally saw everything that had just happened clearly.
Thinking of the vague and very regular sound of knocking on iron that he had just heard, his guess was about to come out.
It was precisely this moment of concentrated thought that prevented him from hearing Ye Chutang's words immediately.
When he realized what was happening, his eyelashes trembled slightly and he subconsciously looked at the woman in front of him.
Only then did he finally realize that they seemed to be too close.
The already small space seemed even more cramped, and even each other's breathing could be heard clearly.
However, what Ye Chutang was thinking at this moment was that this man had covered his face, but it seemed that there was nothing else on his body.
Well... this man is really good-looking, with straight shoulders and neck, and even a beautiful Adam's apple. When he moves up and down slightly, he reveals a rare sense of abstinence.
It's hard to resist——
Hold on.
Ye Chutang closed his eyes and took a deep breath without making any sound.
How could she think about these things when she was busy with work? ? ?
They say that handsome men are seductive, and it is indeed true.
If I had known this, I shouldn't have drunk that pot of wine in the evening...
"Have you been drinking?"
The man's low and casual voice sounded in his ears, startling Ye Chutang and looking up immediately. He felt guilty for some reason when they looked at each other:
"Um?"
Could it be that this man could tell what she was thinking? ?
Shen Yanchuan didn't expect her to react so strongly, and his eyebrows slightly raised.
"You smell of alcohol, can't you smell it?"
In fact, the scent was very faint, but the two of them were very close to each other, and he had extraordinary senses, so he felt it was very strong when he smelled it.
Ye Chutang wrinkled his nose.
"well enough……"
She had deliberately removed the smell of alcohol before coming here. It was all because this person was Chen Yanchuan and was too sensitive.
"I drank a little. Why, I can't drink?"
Why does he look so strange?
Chen Yanchuan seemed to smile: "Of course. I was just surprised that Miss Ye Er was willing to drink these ordinary wines outside."
Ye Chutang was slightly stunned.
It seems like she has never complained about this? Why did Shen Yanchuan say this inexplicably——
"Miss Ye is in a good mood. She didn't drink the many fine wines in Yunlai Tavern in the capital, but came to this small town to sip the nameless yellow soup."
Ye Chutang: “…”
She was silent for a long time, and finally spoke in disbelief:
"Chen Yanchuan."
"I just didn't bring you any wine. Are you holding a grudge against me like that?"
Chen Yanchuan glanced at her and said calmly, "It's hard for Miss Ye Er to still remember this."
Ye Chutang: “…”
It would have been fine if Chen Yanchuan denied it, but he just admitted it so directly! ?
The dignified son of Marquis Dingbei doesn't need a jug of wine!
Ye Chutang's lips moved slightly, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a noise coming from a distance, and he immediately looked over quietly.
Several figures seemed to be carrying something.
Because it was far away, the light was not good, the shadows overlapped, and I couldn't see clearly what it was.
But the next moment, Ye Chutang saw them throwing that "thing" out.
It was actually one person!
"Bah! What bad luck!" One of them spat on the ground, "Is this the third person to die this month?"
Another person echoed, "Isn't it? If we keep dying like this, we won't be able to finish our work!"
There was no regret for the death of his co-worker in his conversation, only complaints.
"After all, he is tired! Who wouldn't be tired? Fortunately, he seemed to be in good health before, but now he is so weak!"
"It doesn't matter if he dies, but it will be troublesome to recruit someone to replace him later."
"Shh! Keep your voice down! If someone hears you, you'll be dead!"
The man being talked about was even more indignant.
"So what's wrong? It's fine that they gave a lot of money before, but recently there has been no movement from above. We haven't seen any meat for several days! Who can stand it if it continues like this!?"
"Didn't Engineer Liu say that this is a special situation and we just need to wait until this period is over? Besides, what if you can't bear it? Now that you're here, do you expect to get out of here in one piece?"
The person who spoke lowered his voice, and everyone fell silent.
"Forget it! Let's go!"
Several people turned and left.
Ye Chutang frowned.
From what those people said, it seemed that death in this mine was a common occurrence, and no one from top to bottom took it seriously.
What are they doing?
"Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Suddenly, I heard a man's question.
Ye Chutang turned his head and looked at him.
After a moment, she lowered her jaw slightly.
"good."
There is only one supervisor guarding outside the gate. Once we get rid of him, we can get in.
Of course, it goes without saying that there must be many levels inside.
As they went -
"It would be great if we can find it. If not, we must leave within half an hour." Shen Yanchuan said.
They don't have much time left, and that's if everything goes well.
Ye Chutang nodded in agreement.
…
In the city.
Su Pei'er lay in bed, tossing and turning.
The small couch next to it was empty. Miss Ye Er had not returned since she left in the morning.
She should have gone to the iron mine outside the city, right?
Su Peier clasped her hands together and prayed silently in her heart.
I hope she is safe...
