It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind could be heard.
After a long while, he spoke coldly, "Who taught you?"
Bai Yan was stunned, "What?"
Meng Hechuan's face was covered with cold air, and he looked straight at his eyes, "Let me ask you, who taught you to say this?"
He paused, "Did Tan Hean tell you that?"
Originally, because she was afraid of horror movies, Meng Hechuan kindly asked her to go out and wait.
I also wanted to find an excuse to follow him out.
Who would have thought that Lian Xun was unwilling to be dragged down by Lu Jili alone and refused to let him leave.
As soon as the delay came, the movie ended.
...
...
When they went out, they saw Tan Hean holding Bai Yan's hand.
Tan Hean appeared next to Bai Yan more and more often.
The attitude also changed from tentativeness at the beginning to open contact.
Whether out of selfishness or work-related caution, Meng Hechuan didn't want Bai Yan to meet him too often.
"In just half an hour, how did he talk to you about me? Or did you talk about not only me, but also the whole team?"
Bai Yan remained silent.
Meng Hechuan's tone became colder and colder. "Did he also promise you a better job? The embassy? The Foreign Affairs Office? Or going abroad?"
My wrist hurt, and he actually grabbed it tightly and pulled it in front of me.
The two men, one tall and one short, were facing each other.
The corners of his mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something.
Bai Yan didn't tolerate him at all and looked up suddenly.
Meng Hechuan felt a sharp pain in his jaw, and took two steps back, "Bai Yan you——"
Bai Yan doesn't play by the rules and is not an ordinary girl at all.
She actually hit Meng Hechuan's chin with her head.
"Meng Hechuan, just because I stole your blueprint once, you always think there's something wrong with me and that I'm a threat to the team? No matter how hard I work, no matter how much I've done since I joined the team, you still have a prejudice against me, right?"
Bai Yan became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and struggled to get his hand away. "Why are you holding me? Why are you questioning me? You haven't even answered my question yet! No one is perfect, how dare you say you have a clear conscience?"
"Of course I have a clear conscience!"
Bai Yan didn't believe it. "Do you dare to say that you don't have any secrets in your heart that you dare not tell others? Do you dare to say that you have never concealed anything?"
"I have never..."
His momentum suddenly weakened, and his expression revealed embarrassment.
Is there anything hidden?
Of course.
For example, Master Meng is now hiding his knowledge of Bai Yan’s little secret.
The wind blew by, and the two people were silent.
Bai Yan suddenly felt that the quarrel between her and Meng Hechuan tonight was a little inexplicable and a little dangerous.
This was not the relationship she wanted, nor was it the direction she wanted to develop.
Lu Jili once teased Meng Hechuan that he was not easily persuaded.
But after getting to know him, Bai Yan felt that he would only respond to soft tactics and not hard ones.
Thinking of this, she softened her tone and emphasized, "Chief Engineer Meng, whether you believe it or not, Mr. Tan and I didn't say a few words to each other, and I had no idea that he would appear in the video room."
In her hand, she was still holding the small wreath she had bought tonight, and she handed it to Meng Hechuan, "Mistletoe is a Christmas wreath, and Christmas is a holiday for foreigners. In order to prevent you from misunderstanding that I am worshipping foreigners, I will not take this wreath away."
After saying that, he trotted towards Building 12.
Meng Hechuan held the wreath and did not chase after him.
…
For several days, Meng Hechuan never came to the training class again.
Together with Lu Jili, I registered my absence.
Bai Yan saw Gou Zi every day and wanted to ask them if they were researching aircraft at the base, but every time she got close to him, she backed off.
Just like that, a few days passed in a flash and turned into more than two weeks.
After class today, Bai Yan stayed for an extra half hour to give extra lessons to the team members who volunteered to stay and study.
When she went to the cafeteria, there was no dinner available. She put the steamed buns that Aunt Zhang had left for her in a bowl and walked towards the dormitory.
From a distance, I saw Aunt Wen wandering at the stairs with her hands clasped.
Seeing her coming back, Aunt Wen hurriedly pulled her over and said, "Comrade Xiaobai, why are you back so late today?"
Aunt Wen glanced upstairs from time to time, "Chief Engineer Meng is here!"
Bai Yan's heart skipped a beat.
"But he was called here by Comrade Xiao Ruan. She said she had something to say and deliberately sent me away!"
The little excitement when she heard that Meng Hechuan was coming just now turned into doubt and vigilance.
Bai Yan smiled at Aunt Wen, then took three steps at a time and quickly climbed to the third floor.
The door of Room 306 was wide open, and Xiao Zhou was standing in the corridor, looking embarrassed.
When I saw her come back, her expression changed from embarrassed to at a loss.
"Bai, Comrade Bai!"
He shouted loudly, feeling that he was trying to cover up his crime.
After a while, there was the sound of footsteps in the room, and Meng Hechuan's long legs stepped out.
The two never met again after they parted unhappily that night.
Bai Yan felt that he looked thinner, and his brows showed fatigue.
Seeing her, Meng Hechuan walked straight over to her and asked, "Is get out of class over?"
There was no strangeness in their voices, as if nothing had happened between the two of them.
"Ah, well, get out of class is over. What are you doing here?"
Ruan Xiaohui's crying voice came from the room. Bai Yan raised her eyebrows, not knowing what had just happened, and looked curious.
"I'm here to give you some New Year gifts." He said calmly, "They're from the research institute. I'll put them on your desk."
Ruan Xiaohui inside heard Bai Yan talking to him and cried even louder.
If it were in the past, Bai Yan would never have asked such a question.
But today is different.
She pursed her lips and raised her chin towards the inner room: "That's it?"
He lowered his eyes, "What else?"
"Then why is she crying? ..."
Meng Hechuan looked back in the direction of her gaze and saw Ruan Xiaohui's figure hidden in the darkness of the inner room.
The two of them parted unhappily that night. Meng Hechuan returned to the dormitory and looked at the wreath in his hand.
The green pine branches were decorated with red berries, a decoration he had never seen before.
Meng Hechuan remembered Bai Yan covering her mouth in panic in front of the vendor. Could it be that this thing called parasite has some special meaning?
He perked up his eyes and looked through the bookshelf for foreign books.
After reading the third book, I finally understood the meaning of mistletoe.
Meng Hechuan tapped his fingers on the words and curled the corners of his lips. He had planned to find Bai Yan the next day, but after the new parts were replaced, there was a breakthrough in the progress of disassembling the new aircraft.
He has been working almost non-stop for the past two weeks without any rest.
Today, I finally finalized the drawings of the model machine with Teacher Wang. When I finished, he looked at the watch and it was still early.
I took the gifts distributed by the team at the research institute, put them in a woven bag, and went to Building 12.
Who would have thought that before Bai Yan came back, he was stopped by Ruan Xiaohui.
Thinking of the conversation before Ruan Xiaohui cried, Meng Hechuan frowned imperceptibly.
His eyes fell on Bai Yan's face. For a moment, he chuckled, and a dark and cunning light flashed in his eyes. "Oh, you know about the epaulettes, right?"
