Tan Hean's last words before leaving caused the air pressure in the jeep to drop to zero on the way back.
Meng Hechuan had a cold face and stared out the window motionlessly.
Bai Yan clenched her hands on her knees.
After returning to the brigade, Lu Jili originally planned to drive the car directly to the bottom of Building 12.
But Meng Hechuan called for a stop alone, "It's not convenient for the car to drive into the family quarters. Bai Yan and I will walk back."
The tone is hard.
It's the twelfth lunar month, with low temperatures and strong winds.
What does it matter if Meng Hechuan gets angry at her?
Bai Yan was holding her breath in her heart, but she didn't dare to talk back to him because of the guilty feeling that came out of nowhere.
...
...
He unbuckled his seat belt without saying a word, said thank you twice coldly and got out of the car.
Meng Hechuan then got out of the car.
Walking in front and behind her.
Lu Jili took a look in the side mirror, shifted the gear again, and asked Lian Xun, "Tan Hean is really shameless in what he says and does. Who can loosen the soil so openly? Coach Lian, use your not-so-smart brain to discuss whether he is loosening the soil for official business or for personal matters?"
"If it's official business, everyone in the organization wants to poach him. This Tan Hean is really an out-and-out capitalist. If it's a private matter..."
That's even worse.
They both have excellent financial resources, but the Tan family is slightly inferior in terms of family background and power.
But he is a private entrepreneur and an overseas Chinese.
If you don't have enough power, you can make up for it with money.
Although Meng Hechuan is the son of a powerful family, he is ultimately just a chief engineer who receives military allowances.
Even if you work your way to the top, you may not earn as much as others in a year.
One is powerful, the other is rich, and both have achieved the highest level.
It is still hard to say who will be more dominant between the two.
The two brothers looked at each other in the car, and at the same time, they stared at their departing backs and shook their heads.
…
It was close to lights-out time and there were few people on the team's avenue.
They walked one after the other.
At the beginning, Bai Yan was in front and Meng Hechuan was behind.
But later, Meng Hechuan quickened his pace for some unknown reason and gradually surpassed Bai Yan.
But the distance between them was still like there were two or three invisible people between them.
Bai Yan stared at the back of his head for a while, then called him, "Chief Engineer Meng."
Meng Hechuan didn't look back, but he stopped after all.
"Are you... doubting the relationship between me and Mr. Tan again?" She didn't know what to say and hesitated.
From the moment I met Tan Hean, I discovered that they were hostile to each other.
But based on Bai Yan's understanding of the plot in the book, Meng Hechuan has not yet become a stranger, and Tan Hean has not yet targeted Meng Hechuan.
The source of the fact that every time they meet, it's like a confrontation is from Meng Hechuan.
Meng Hechuan is prejudiced against Tan Hean.
Thinking of the idea that suddenly popped up tonight, Bai Yan wondered if she should let Meng Hechuan get close to the red.
"In fact, you always say that Mr. Tan is an overseas Chinese and that he is not as simple as he appears to be. I think it is your suspicion."
Bai Yan wanted to change Meng Hechuan's prejudice against Tan Hean, so she chased him for two or three steps, "You are the chief engineer of the brigade. You are used to obeying the organization's arrangements. You are a rigid and hard-line person. Sometimes you may not be able to accept Mr. Tan's foreign thinking."
Meng Hechuan stopped and looked at the camellia in the small flower bed without saying a word.
"I have not known Mr. Tan for long. He likes to joke and has a Western way of doing things, but I think he is a decent and pragmatic person, a rare entrepreneur..."
"Is it rare to be decent and pragmatic?"
He finally spoke, his words tinged with sarcasm.
As if he was tired of looking at the camellia, he picked up his foot again and continued walking forward.
Bai Yan thought that they were not getting along, so she didn't care. "He also helped with the exchange class and provided free materials many times. He also sponsored the movie organized by Teacher Wei last time."
She ran forward, jogging to keep up with his pace, "Chief Engineer Meng, why do you have a prejudice against him..."
Bai Yan thought about the vague thoughts in her mind. Although she felt narcissistic, she still wanted to ask for clarification, "Could it be because...?"
He stopped suddenly.
Bai Yan couldn't stop her feet and bumped into the man's hard and straight back.
The collision made her nose bridge ache.
Meng Hechuan turned sideways and looked down at her as she rubbed her nose. "Could it be because of something?"
He glared at her, his words seemed to be testing, "Bai Yan, tell me, why?"
The sky was pitch black, and in order to save electricity, the brigade turned off the street lights at a certain time.
Bai Yan was afraid to hear the answer.
I dare not bring disaster upon myself.
She subconsciously took a step back and said, "Chief Engineer Meng, listen to the advice and eat your fill. Let's be honest. Mr. Tan has not done anything that is detrimental to the team."
The voice-over says that Tan Hean is a good man, so he should not target him and should be on guard.
The temperature dropped suddenly at night, and mist appeared, obscuring the contours of his facial features.
It looks unusually sinister.
Meng Hechuan took a step closer, "Bai Yan, did you develop such feelings towards him after such a short time of contact, or have you known him for longer than I do? How can you be so sure that Tan Hean is a good person?"
"Seek truth from facts? You want to seek truth from facts? Well, let's debate. Tan Hean sponsored a movie for the brigade. What was wrong with the movie? Why didn't it have to be a spy movie? He provided information to the brigade, but he also got the freedom to enter and leave the brigade. The reason why Capital Airlines was able to become the leader in the private aviation industry in a short period of time is inseparable from his advance information from the brigade."
He clearly criticized the purpose behind Tan He'an word by word. Bai Yan was surprised, but then felt that he was being unreasonable.
The strong repel each other, and he has a deep prejudice against Tan Hean.
Bai Yan wanted to change his mind, and she had more thoughts in her mind.
If Meng Hechuan could interact more with Tan Hean and change his fixed opinion of him, perhaps the two of them could go from rivals to friends?
With the positive guidance of Tan Hean, Meng Hechuan might not have gone astray.
It was a windy night and there was no shelter on both sides of the avenue. The wind blew her long hair and covered her face.
Meng Hechuan couldn't understand the hope in Bai Yan's eyes, and the pity she looked at him with.
Just hearing her mentioning Tan Hean again and again made me feel annoyed.
For a moment, he didn't pay attention to his tone of voice, and said stiffly, "We all grew up eating whole grains. I don't believe there are perfect people in this world. The more perfect he is, the more I feel that this is a disguise to confuse others."
Bai Yan immediately retorted, "If that's the case, isn't it the same for you, Chief Engineer Meng?"
It was as if she told a joke, and the corners of his mouth were neither smiling nor laughing, with a sinister look.
"Me too?"
"Everyone in the entire team praises you, Chief Engineer Meng, for your purity and purity. According to your theory, perfect people are all pretending. So are you pretending too?"
