After settling Teacher Wang, Meng Hechuan didn't stop for a moment and asked Xiao Zhou to drive the car back to the kitchen.
Aunt Zhang had just finished cleaning the cafeteria and told him that Bai Yan had just left.
Meng Hechuan thanked him, turned around and chased after him towards Building 12.
Bai Yan walked slowly, holding with great effort some old clothes that Aunt Zhang had packed.
Her fever had just subsided last night, and her strength had not yet fully recovered, so her back was a little hunched.
Clothes are thick in winter, so Aunt Zhang packed a pile of clothes for her. Bai Yan had tried her best to open her arms, but she could only barely close them.
A part of the slender white arm was exposed, sparkling in the sunlight.
The sun at seven or eight o'clock is not too strong and it feels very comfortable to sunbathe on your body.
Bai Yan not only looks like a cat, but her living habits are also somewhat like that of a pampered kitten.
...
...
But looking from behind her, you can guess the expression on her face at this moment.
He is definitely enjoying the warm sunshine with a comfortable look on his face.
Meng Hechuan slowed down.
Put your hands behind your back.
Following closely behind her.
Perhaps to avoid suspicion, Bai Yan took off Meng Hechuan's coat after coming out of the cafeteria.
The clothes on his body were thin and short.
She was tired from walking, so she put the bag in her hand on the flower bed, supported her waist with her back hands, and moved back and forth and left and right.
With just an unintentional forward movement, her slender waist jumped out of the clothes.
This made Master Meng, who was following behind, feel his throat tighten.
If one's concentration is distracted, it is easy for people to make mistakes.
I didn't pay attention when I stopped, and my leather shoes stepped on the fallen leaves, making a crackling sound.
Bai Yan just noticed that the camellia flowers in the flowerbed were in full bloom, and was secretly picking one to take back to the dormitory.
He was startled by the sound, his hand shook, and his fingertips poked the branch.
She squinted one eye and cried out in pain.
Meng Hechuan sighed silently and walked over with bigger steps.
He pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket, "Why are you so careless again?"
It was that green bamboo handkerchief.
Bai Yan returned it to him after washing it clean last time. This handkerchief was stained with her blood, and Bai Yan thought he would not use it again.
I didn't expect you still carry it with you?
Seeing that Bai Yan didn't move, Meng Hechuan covered her index finger with the handkerchief.
Their fingers brushed lightly through the fabric.
Bai Yan shrank back.
"Press the wound." He said in a normal tone.
Bai Yan opened her mouth and wanted to say that her fingers were not bleeding.
But when the words came to my lips, I inexplicably recalled the scene yesterday when I took a step back and he took a step forward.
It’s better not to mess with him.
She obediently wrapped her fingers with a handkerchief.
"Are you cold?" Meng Hechuan bent down, and the heavy bag that was in Bai Yan's hand just now fell into his hand easily.
He stood up straight again and glanced at Bai Yan from head to toe. "You wear so little every day."
"What's missing?" The clothes Aunt Zhang packed were all thick sweaters. It was tiring to carry them all, so she would not refuse a ready-made laborer.
The two walked side by side.
“Do you like camellia?”
Bai Yan looked down and saw that the camellia she had just picked was still in her hand, perfectly contrasting with the green bamboo on the handkerchief.
It is not a good behavior to pick flowers casually. Bai Yan blushed and said, "I didn't pick them. I found them on the ground."
As she spoke, a breeze blew and lifted the ends of her hair.
Bai Yan reached out to adjust it, and the white on her waist appeared and disappeared.
Meng Hechuan felt that there seemed to be a faint floral scent at the tip of his nose, mixed with a feminine scent.
His throat tightened again and he secretly squeezed his drooping hands.
"Bai Yan."
Bai Yan looked up.
The sunlight shone onto the man's face through the gaps between the branches, with clear light and shadows without any sharp edges.
After escaping from her hometown in Jinling, she was Comrade Bai Yan, Miss Bai Yan, Teacher Bai Yan, and even Sister Bai Yan in Ruan Xiaohui's mouth.
Many suffixes are added after 'Bai Yan'.
But she couldn't remember when Meng Hechuan started calling her by her full name.
It sounds serious, but not unfamiliar.
After Meng Hechuan called out once, there was no movement again.
Bai Yan felt a little uncomfortable waiting, just like someone sent you a message "Are you there?" before going to bed, and then there was no response.
It's so itchy.
She couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"I just want to ask you if you like camellia."
Bai Yan lowered her head and turned the camellia she had just picked in her hand over and over again. "Not really. I like all flowers."
Meng Hechuan nodded.
There was another silence.
The two continued to walk side by side, and from time to time little soldiers on bicycles passed by.
After passing them, he had to stop, jump out of the car, salute Meng Hechuan, and then set off again.
At the same time, they turned their heads and looked furtively at what was going on between them.
"I--"
"you--"
They both spoke at the same time, and Meng Hechuan motioned to her, "You speak first."
Bai Yan actually had nothing to say, and she spoke just now only because she didn't want the atmosphere to become too awkward.
Fortunately, the dormitory building is just ahead.
She pointed and said, "We're at the dormitory building."
Meng Hechuan didn't stop, and continued to follow Bai Yan, carrying the bag of clothes and sending her upstairs.
Aunt Wen poked her head out to take a look, and greeted them with a smile, muttering, "The leaders of the institute are really nice to their subordinates. They send us baskets of fruit to eat, and carry milk powder and honey upstairs like water. Now Chief Engineer Meng is even helping Comrade Xiaobai carry things himself?"
Aunt Wen took note of it silently. It seems that technical personnel are still popular.
When I go home on vacation, I must take the opportunity to educate my daughter well and make her study hard.
At least after finishing high school, if you can speak a foreign language fluently like Comrade Xiaobai, wouldn't it be easy to get a good job?
Meng Hechuan sent Bai Yan to the third floor. Ruan Xiaohui didn't seem to be there and the door was closed.
Bai Yan pursed her lips, stood still, turned around, and faced him, "Chief Engineer Meng, thank you for what happened last night and this morning."
She knew very well that if he hadn't been there last night, she would have died of a fever.
Without his support this morning, she might not have been so quick to slap Ruan Xiaohui and Xu Qingqing.
Meng Hechuan said nothing and just stared at her quietly.
The heat in his eyes came inexplicably, forcing Bai Yan to not dare to look up. She could only secretly lift her eyelids to peek at his reaction.
"I'm here, Chief Engineer Meng, thank you." she repeated.
Meng Hechuan held the bag with one hand and put the other hand in his pocket.
His voice was deep, "Bai Yan, is your thank you so superficial? Shouldn't you ask me to come in for a cup of tea, or express your gratitude in some other way?"
Bai Yan was stunned. Is Meng Hechuan, who has a cold and aloof personality, such a difficult man?
She curled her fingers and said, "I don't have it here... No, this is the dormitory building, I..."
Unable to bear the pressure, she raised her hand to take back her bag, "...It doesn't seem very convenient."
"What?"
"I live with Ruan Xiaohui, it doesn't seem very convenient..."
Two muffled laughs came from above my head, "I was just kidding."
Bai Yan was thinking absentmindedly, has Meng Hechuan been smiling at her too much recently?
When her eyes met his, Bai Yan skipped a beat.
Oops, the villain Boss has this familiar handsome guy feeling...
She pursed her lips, unable to tell whether the confusion in her heart was happiness or disappointment.
Unable to figure it out, she could only run away, "Then I'll go in."
Meng Hechuan said "hmm", but still didn't move.
There is no plan to leave.
Just kept looking at Bai Yan.
Bai Yan's heart was beating wildly.
"Give me the clothes." She was a little annoyed at her own reaction, and also a little angry at Meng Hechuan for not giving her face, and began to pull at the bundle with her hands.
She remembered that she had put the dormitory key in her bag.
When Bai Yan's fingertips touched the cold feeling, she shuddered and accidentally dropped the key she had just found on the ground.
She was about to pick it up, but Meng Hechuan had already bent down a step faster -
The hands of the two people just happened to touch each other.
Bai Yan looked at him with her pupils wide open, and Meng Hechuan did not avoid her either. The distance between them was so close that they were almost touching.
