In the evening, the people from Team Six resumed their old eating habits.
Li Han was in charge of cooking, and the group of people enjoyed a lively meal together.
After this mission, the trust between everyone increased significantly, and even Liu Daniu and Li Han's attitude towards Meng Yang improved considerably.
After dinner, with nothing else to do, the group sat together chatting. Suddenly, Meng Yang stood up and said, "Sister Chi, I want to talk to you."
As soon as he said that, everyone's eyes turned to him.
Meng Yang gave a wry smile: "Actually, it's nothing serious."
"Is it because of Lan Yu?" Chi Xia frowned. "If you want me to recall her to Team Six, then I can tell you now, I'm sorry, I can't do it."
Hearing this, Meng Yang gave another wry smile: "Although I already knew this was the answer, I still can't give up and want to ask."
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Liu Daniu said, sounding annoyed. "You used to be a big boss, have you never seen a woman before or what?!"
Meng Yang's expression stiffened, and he sat down without answering.
The atmosphere became tense for a moment. Seeing Meng Yang's expression, Liu Daniu became even angrier. He suddenly stood up and was about to leave.
"Da Niu, sit down." Chi Xia called out to him. After Liu Da Niu sat down angrily, she turned to Meng Yang and said, "We're all in the same team. You can see that Da Niu and Li Han have some issues with you. Do you know why?"
Meng Yang lowered his eyes and nodded gently: "I know, I knew it the first day I moved into the building."
Everyone was somewhat surprised by these words.
Liu Daniu looked at him: "You...how did you know?"
Meng Yang gave a wry smile: "I'm right next to Li Han. I knew it because your door wasn't closed properly and your voice was a bit loud."
Liu Daniu was stunned: "Then you..."
"So what about you?" Liu Daniu didn't know what he wanted to say.
Instead, Meng Yang sighed and looked at him, saying, "I used to be a bastard, I know. But I never expected those photos to be released, let alone that woman would commit suicide. I really didn't expect it to end like that."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Liu Daniu suddenly stood up and threw a punch at Meng Yang: "I've put up with you for too long! You're a beast! No, you're not even a beast!"
Meng Yang didn't fight back. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and nodded: "You're right, I really am a beast, that's why I wanted to help Lan Yu. It's not that I have any feelings for her, but... she looks like her."
Who she is is self-evident.
Liu Daniu was stunned for a moment: "You're helping Lan Yu just because she looks like my fellow villager's girlfriend?"
“Yes.” Meng Yang nodded. “I know she’s using me. I’ve seen too many women like her, but her eyes are just too similar to hers. Every time I see her eyes, I…”
Chi Xia understood: "So, you willingly let her use you, took a beating from Zheng Zemin, and now you're begging me to take her back to the Sixth Team and protect her?"
Meng Yang didn't say anything, but his meaning was already very clear.
Chi Xia sighed: "I'm sorry, I still can't do it. I can't bring her back just because you feel guilty. She's even worse than Liu Qing, so I can't. I have to be responsible to everyone and to myself. You shouldn't put your guilt on her either. No matter how similar she is, she's not the person you've wronged."
Hearing this, Meng Yang gave a wry smile: "I understand."
The conversation ended there, and Meng Yang seemed to have given up, never mentioning Lan Yu again.
