Lu Jili didn't hear clearly, so he asked him, "What did you say?"
A piece of cigarette ash that was not flicked away in time fell on Meng Hechuan's fingers, burning him back to his senses.
He raised his hand and stubbed out the cigarette on the hood, "Nothing."
Meng Hechuan naturally changed the subject, "I asked those two thugs before we set out, and they were inconsistent. One moment they said that they were the team that climbed over the wall and were planning to arrest people at random, and the next moment they let it slip that Bai Yan had offended someone, so they kidnapped her."
He analyzed, "Let's not talk about who Bai Yan offended. Even though the entire brigade was showing a movie today, there were still people patrolling. There were still broken glass bottles on the brigade's wall. If there was no one to help them, they couldn't climb in at all."
Lu Jili also agreed with him, and his expression became stern, "So, you think someone deliberately let them in?"
Meng Hechuan nodded.
Lu Jili cursed again, and after a while he said, "If someone in the team lets them in, it will be a disaster."
In addition to special flying fighters like Lu Jili, the brigade also has valuable researchers like Meng Hechuan.
...
...
If some criminals sneak into the team, it will be a serious matter.
He glanced at his friend again, hesitated for a long time before saying: "Ah Chuan, have you ever thought about this? Comrade Xiao Ruan's timing of appearance was too coincidental. You said that she sprained her ankle and lost the jade pendant, so Sister A Yan would go back to the west alone..."
Lu Jili had heard that Ruan Xiaohui had saved Meng Hechuan, so he didn't say it too bluntly.
Meng Hechuan frowned. Out of gratitude for saving his life, he didn't want to think badly of Ruan Xiaohui.
Fortunately, when we found Bai Yan, we also caught the two men. After the security department interrogates them first, we should be able to get an answer.
Meng Hechuan looked at his watch. Last night's commotion was too loud, so he had to write a report and hand it over to Lu Zhenhua today.
He raised his hand and patted Lu Jili's shoulder. "After a whole night of hard work, you should go back to the dormitory and rest. We will go to the chief later."
He returned to the jeep and knocked gently on the window.
Bai Yan was woken up and looked at him sleepily, "Are we home?"
Probably knowing that she was just saying it casually, for some reason, when Meng Hechuan heard the word "home", his chest suddenly vibrated violently.
His throat rolled slightly and he responded softly, "Yeah, here we are."
…
Bai Yan's clothes were torn and dirty, so she had no choice but to continue wearing Meng Hechuan's uniform jacket and return to the dormitory.
"Then I'll go up first?" Bai Yan tightened the collar of her army green jacket and lowered her head.
Meng Hechuan said "hmm", and watched Bai Yan take two steps up the stairs. He still gritted his teeth and called her, "Bai Yan."
The girl's heart trembled slightly, she stopped, stood on the steps and turned around.
I guess he stopped me because he wanted to say something else.
Meng Hechuan cleared his throat, apologetically, "The exchange class is very tight, and the teachers have to return to the university after the winter vacation. You should have a good rest today, and after you have recovered a little, you still have to... return to work as soon as possible."
I thought he would say something comforting, but it turned out he just wanted to inform her when she had to return to work.
Bai Yan pursed her lips, feeling a little lost, unable to tell why.
But her confused expression had another meaning in Meng Hechuan's eyes.
From Meng Hechuan's understanding of girls, except for those female comrades who have been trained by the organization, most girls are still pampered.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be several translators who couldn’t stand the heavy tasks and workload and simply gave up.
Bai Yan had just experienced the shock of being kidnapped, and now because of the tight work schedule, she was asked to return to work as soon as possible.
It is indeed a bit unreasonable and inhumane.
Meng Hechuan was not sure whether Bai Yan would complain about this, so he became a little nervous. He patiently explained, "I know this may be hard for you, but the research and development task is too urgent..."
Obviously he underestimated the adaptability of the working cattle and horses of later generations.
In later life, Bai Yan could work for three days and three nights in a row to complete a project. Meng Hechuan even gave her a whole day of rest, so there would be no problem for her to return to work tomorrow.
"No problem. I will go to the small building on time tomorrow to meet with Teacher Wei and the others. I'm sorry that my matter has affected the progress of work today."
Her tone was apparently very normal, without any emotional fluctuations or disgust.
But Meng Hechuan felt uncomfortable listening to it.
But he couldn't tell what the uncomfortable feeling was.
The atmosphere between the two became a little strange. Bai Yan spoke first: "Chief Engineer Meng, if there is nothing else, I will go up first. Thank you for saving me. You have been busy all night. Go to bed early."
Meng Hechuan nodded.
Bai Yan went up one floor and he was still standing there.
Bai Yan poked her head out and said, "Chief Engineer Meng, aren't you going back?"
"I will go to the security department later to find out how those two people were able to sneak into the team and how they took you away."
Hearing this irrelevant answer, Bai Yan couldn't help but laugh, "I'm asking you, I've already gone upstairs, why aren't you leaving yet?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Meng Hechuan's face. He subconsciously cleared his throat and blurted out the truth, "I'm worried about you. I'll wait until you enter the house before I leave."
As soon as these words were spoken, the tips of Bai Yan's ears felt slightly hot.
Fortunately, one of them was upstairs and the other was downstairs, and she guessed that Meng Hechuan should not be able to see her embarrassment.
Bai Yan laughed dryly, her voice becoming smaller and smaller, "Then, I'll go upstairs then."
He nodded again, "Have a good rest."
Bai Yan felt her cheeks getting hot, and she stumbled as she walked away due to distraction.
She quickly stood up, and turned to explain to Meng Hechuan downstairs as if she was trying to cover up her mistake: "My shoes are uncomfortable, I tripped, and I'm leaving."
It was not until Bai Yan reached the third floor that she looked back across the gap in the corridor. The man was still standing there with his arms folded across his chest.
His eyes followed her all the time.
Hot, hot.
Seeing Bai Yan turned around, he did not avoid her, but nodded slightly.
There was clearly a distance of three floors between the two people, but in Bai Yan's eyes it was as if a close-up camera was turned on, magnifying Meng Hechuan's face.
She could even see Meng Hechuan's handsome eyebrows raised, then he loosened his hands, stood up straight, gestured to Bai Yan, and turned away.
Looking at the man's crane-like figure, Bai Yan felt as if her heart was slightly warmed.
"Meng Hechuan..." She was mumbling his name absentmindedly when the dormitory door in front of her was suddenly pushed open, pulling her back from this inexplicable emotion.
