Meng Hechuan looked at Bai Yan's face carefully and frowned slightly.
Is that a good complexion for her?
Bai Yan has a small face, a pointed chin, and cold white skin.
Her big eyes stood out against her thin face, revealing an unspoken fragility.
I don’t know if it was because her family was poor and they didn’t have enough food to eat, but when I first saw her, she was so thin that even her waist was only a few inches wide.
It seemed that any pinch would be enough to bend her.
I had thought that since I had come to the brigade, the food would be good and I could gain a few pounds of meat.
But why did Meng Hechuan feel that her body was getting thinner and thinner day by day, and her waist was getting thinner and thinner day by day?
The whole person looks light and fragile.
...
...
Did she eat well?
Meng Hechuan raised his eyebrows and couldn't help looking at her: "Nightmare?"
"No way? Don't you know?" Lu Jili poked him with his elbow in an exaggerated manner, "So sister A Yan didn't tell you?"
Bai Yan couldn't help but glare at Lu Jili.
If I had known he was such a big mouth, I wouldn't have said that when he caught me not sleeping well one day.
She answered stiffly, "It wasn't a nightmare. It's just that after that day, I occasionally dreamed that I was kidnapped again..."
Bai Yan's sleep quality has not been very good since she came from the book.
In the beginning, he had to deal with the father and son of the Bai family. Later, after escaping from Baijia Village, he met Meng Hechuan, who treated him as a "swallow" and was on guard against him, and Ruan Xiaohui, who was full of tricks.
Now that he has joined the team, he has started a conflict with the small group of the art troupe headed by Xu Qingqing.
What's more, you might even be kidnapped by gamblers.
She felt that she was really unlucky. Why was it so difficult for her to just be a salted fish and live out this stolen life?
That's why Bai Yan listened to Aunt Zhang and came to her dormitory for several days in a row.
Ask her to help sprinkle some grapefruit juice to get rid of the bad luck.
But Aunt Zhang’s methods are just a psychological comfort.
After going through so many things in a row, even a strong woman with strong endurance can fall.
What's more, inside Bai Yan's shell is just an ordinary girl in her twenties.
She seemed calm and unconcerned to the outside world, and told Aunt Zhang that it was all in the past.
The grapefruit juice was shot, the brazier was jumped, and everything was fine.
I even learned a Cantonese phrase from Aunt Zhang, and said with a smile: "From now on, just take it in stride and don't worry." (Aunt Zhang is from Hong Kong Island, and this phrase is used to describe luckily avoiding a disaster or getting through a difficult time smoothly).
In fact, every night when she closed her eyes, the disgusting faces of Gao Hou and Fatty would always linger in her mind.
In addition, she and Meng Hechuan had the same idea and always felt that her kidnapping was not as simple as it seemed.
The timing and motive of Ruan Xiaohui's appearance that day were too coincidental for her to ignore.
Because he was suspicious and wary of Ruan Xiaohui, Bai Yan couldn't sleep well when he thought about being alone with her at night.
After all this, the once lively and pretty girl became haggard.
Bai Yan didn't want to talk too much about herself, so she responded vaguely: "But it's not a big problem. I slept well these days."
Meng Hechuan frowned, feeling that there was something wrong with the sound of her voice.
Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, he was rudely interrupted by Lu Jili.
"It's time, it's time. I'm starving. Sister Yan hasn't eaten yet, right? Let's go to the cafeteria to eat together?"
It was lunch time and all the team members should be in the cafeteria getting their meals.
Bai Yan didn't want to appear with these two ancestors and cause controversy again.
She waved her hands repeatedly: "I won't waste food resources. I'm not hungry and I don't have much appetite."
She pulled Aunt Zhang and tried to find an excuse to escape.
Meng Hechuan's cold voice floated out of nowhere: "You have to eat when it's time. If you don't have an appetite, don't eat. You are being irresponsible to your body."
He stood in front of Bai Yan like a wall, blocking her way as she ran, and said something that would not allow her to refuse: "You are too thin, go eat."
Aunt Zhang was worried that no one would discipline Bai Yan.
Seeing that Meng Hechuan was her leader, she pushed her along the way: "That's right, girl, you didn't eat on time for three meals a day without anyone watching you. Eating in the team is free, and you ate a few bites of food like a cat. How much can you waste!"
Bai Yan had no choice but to shrug her head and follow Meng Hechuan and the others to the cafeteria.
Fortunately, there was a guy named Lu Jili nearby making jokes, so the atmosphere and situation were not as awkward as Bai Yan had imagined.
The entire military region is quite large, and there are three canteens in total.
The canteen near the Space Brigade is the largest and is fully equipped with frying and barbecue facilities.
Lu Jili is a big eater and he could smell the delicious food as soon as he walked in.
He quickly took three plates and handed them to Meng Hechuan.
"Sister Yan, your Chief Engineer Meng is good-looking. The aunties and girls serving food in the cafeteria all like him very much. Let him serve food for us. The dishes will definitely be full in a while."
Lu Jili pushed Bai Yan towards the service center at the entrance of the cafeteria, "Come on, let's go buy some Arctic Ocean drinks."
Bai Yan didn't expect that Meng Hechuan's masculinity could be used in this way.
When being pulled away by Lu Jili, she secretly looked back and couldn't help laughing when she saw Master Meng holding the dinner plate.
When she smiled, Meng Hechuan's face became even darker.
Bai Yan quickly shrank her neck and followed Lu Jili without looking around.
Chief Engineer Meng, with a sullen face, held three plates in his hands and had to deal with the surprised looks and questions from the team members coming and going: "Chief Engineer Meng, you are so hungry, do you want three meals for one person?"
However, no matter how dissatisfied he was, Meng Hechuan squinted his eyes and looked at the slender figure being taken away by Lu Jili, and still picked up the plate and walked towards the food window.
When Lu Jili brought Bai Yan back, Meng Hechuan had already found three empty seats and sat down.
Lu Jili sat down opposite Meng Hechuan with great fanfare. Bai Yan glanced at him secretly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Jili is quite perceptive!
She didn't want to sit side by side with Meng Hechuan, nor did she want to sit opposite him to eat.
He walked around to the opposite side of Meng Hechuan with a look of delight, preparing to sit next to Lu Jili.
Unexpectedly, someone shouted from behind: "Captain Lu! We brothers grabbed some hot dumplings from the kitchen. They are served with garlic and chili peppers! Are you coming?"
Lu Jili is a noodle lover. When he heard that there were dumplings, he stood up and said, "Come on, come on!"
Then, he rushed straight to the rear with the plate in his hand.
Bai Yan stood dumbfounded beside the seat he had just sat, looking at the empty chair, not knowing whether to sit or stand.
Unfortunately, there were two team members holding plates and couldn't find an empty seat.
Seeing that there were still two empty tables here, he boldly stepped forward and asked, "Chief Engineer Meng, Teacher Bai, are there only two of you? Do you mind if we share a table?"
"no."
"No problem."
They both spoke at the same time, but their answers were different.
Bai Yan said no, but Master Meng agreed in a rare friendly way.
Looking at the two unfamiliar team members holding food trays in front of her, a moment of embarrassment flashed across Bai Yan's face.
"Then... okay..."
"That's fine."
They spoke at the same time again, and after trying to make up for it, they changed their words and gave the opposite of what they had just said.
Double the embarrassment.
The team members were also at a loss, not knowing whether to sit down or leave.
"Well...then we won't bother you anymore, let's go to the back and take a look..."
"No need." Meng Hechuan sat up straight and nodded to the two team members, "There are two empty seats here, you can sit down."
After saying that, he pushed the plate that was originally placed next to him and was filled with what looked like two large spoonfuls of rice towards the seat opposite him, "Bai Yan, sit down and eat."
