Chapter 20

“If you scare people, they will die. Don’t come out of the darkness again, or I will smash your head.” Du Yimeng patted her chest while speaking. She was really scared just now, and her heart was still beating wildly.

Du Yidong nodded vigorously, fearing that his sister would complain to his mother.

“Da Meng is back. Why did I hear a scream outside just now? And that voice sounded a little familiar?” Just then Du Weihai and his wife came out after putting on their clothes, and it was Du’s mother who spoke.

It’s not that the couple are careless. In their opinion, 18-year-old Du Yidong is already an adult and there is no problem in picking someone up from get off work at night. No one would have thought that Du Yidong is a coward who is afraid of the dark.

The brother and sister shook their heads at the same time. They certainly didn’t want others to know about their embarrassing things. As long as they refused to admit it, they would not be the ones who were embarrassed.

“It’s okay. It’s getting late. You two should pack up and go to bed!” Du Weihai said this and went back to his room and fell asleep. He was tired after doing heavy physical work all day and fell asleep almost the moment he fell into bed.

If his wife hadn’t kicked him awake just now, he wouldn’t have woken up.

“Okay, go to bed!” Du Yimeng waved at Du Yidonggang in disdain. She couldn’t help but despise him for being such a loser. After all, they were just as losers.

…

Nothing happened that night. On the way to work the next day, Du Yimeng looked at Du Yidong from time to time, just because there was a dark circle under his eyes. It was obviously her who was working overtime!

“What’s wrong with you? If you’re not feeling well, take a leave. The worst thing during working hours is to be in a bad mood.” Du Yimeng advised.

If you are not in good spirits and operate machine tools, it may cause death.

“I’m fine. I was just chased by a dog all night last night.” Du Yidonggang said listlessly.

“Dog, where did the dog come from?” Du Yimeng asked in confusion. In this day and age, people can’t even get enough to eat, who would be so wasteful as to keep a dog?

She is such a spendthrift, but she has never thought of raising a dog. Who is braver than her?

“In the dream…” Du Yidong said slowly. Last night he went back to his room and fell asleep immediately. As a result, he was chased by a dog all night.

The big black dog in the dream seemed to be seriously ill and kept chasing him. He could only run as fast as he could, running all night long, which made him very tired.

“You little bastard, are you making fun of your sister?” Du Weihai scolded. He had never seen anyone dreaming of exhausting himself to such an extent.

Du Yidonggang: He was clearly telling the truth, why does no one believe him?

“Here’s a candy for you to wake you up.” Du Yimeng took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Du Yidonggang.

Du Weihai felt a little jealous when he saw this. Why didn’t his daughter think of him?

Lao Wu said that he doesn’t like eating sweets, but on the contrary, he especially likes eating sweets. He doesn’t smoke or drink, so what’s wrong with eating sweets?

As a result, he had to hide carefully and not let anyone find out, just because he was a man.

“Thank you, sister. You are always the best to me.” Du Yidong, who had been listless, immediately became energetic. He thanked Du Yimeng with a smile, then peeled the fruit candy and put it in his mouth.

The next second he covered his mouth tightly, not knowing whether it was because of excessive pain or other reasons, his facial features were tightly wrinkled.

Du Weihai: His daughter is trying to poison her son, should he try to stop her?

Forget it, the grudge between the siblings is an internal issue, so let them solve it themselves!

Then he walked away in big strides. He would never admit that he was afraid that his daughter would give him candy.

What if his daughter really gave it to him, would he accept it or not?

“Sister, what the hell is this? Why is it so sour?” Du Yidonggang, who finally came to his senses, looked at Du Yimeng with resentment on his face.

He said his sister took after his father, being sinister and evil…

“Lemon candy, how does it taste?” Du Yimeng said with a smile. This silly boy really thought she was trying to trick him, but she was just trying to cheer him up!

Du Weihai, who was a few meters away, heard Du Yidong’s question and immediately pricked up his ears to listen. The three words “lemon candy” made him walk faster.

“These are all for you. Eat one when you feel sleepy. If you dare not eat one, you won’t have any share of meat at home in the future. Mom, you have to listen to me. I have the final say.” Du Yimeng viciously stuffed a handful of lemon candies into Du Yidonggang’s arms.

Then she trotted off to catch up with her father, leaving Du Yidonggang feeling hopeless.

“Xiaodong, I like sour food, how about…” A young man said with a smile, but the next second he was the only one left who stretched out Erkang’s hand.

Du Yidong didn’t even dare to look back, and ran away. He cursed in his heart, saying that he was already married but still wanted to eat the candy given by his sister, how shameless…

…

As soon as Du Yimeng arrived at the technical department, she was pulled away by Song Zhi who had been waiting for a long time. The more she walked, the more she felt something was wrong, because this was not the way to workshop 1.

“That tractor is now the treasure of our machinery factory. How can it be kept in a workshop? We pushed it to the big warehouse last night.” Seeing her puzzled face, Song Zhi kindly explained.

“Minister Wu is here, and with him come several engineers.” Song Zhi reminded. He was very optimistic about Du Yimeng. Not only was he capable, but the key was that he was not arrogant or impatient, which was very good.

“So early?” Du Yimeng asked in disbelief. The minister had already come, but she, a small technician, had only come now. She seemed a little slack.

“It’s okay. Director Yu explained to Minister Wu that you worked overtime for half the night last night. Minister Wu kept praising you for being a good comrade.” Song Zhi said with a smile.

“Thank you, Chief Song, for the reminder!” Du Yimeng said sincerely.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. We are all family!” Song Zhi nodded with satisfaction in response to Du Yimeng’s thanks. It was worth it for him to run to the technical department to wait for her.

The two soon arrived at the large warehouse, and Du Yimeng saw a lot of people here. Her eyes fell on a middle-aged man, and everyone vaguely looked at him as the leader. This should be Minister Wu, right?

Du Yimeng was looking at Minister Wu, and Minister Wu and several engineers around him were also looking at her. The first impression she gave them was that she was very young.

If they didn’t know Yu Hongru’s character, they might have thought there was something fishy going on.

“Minister Wu, this is Comrade Du Yimeng. The plastic fan we designed last time was designed by her. The 190-horsepower tractor in front of us was also made by her. Together with the comrades in the technical department, they worked day and night and finally built this tractor ahead of schedule.” Yu Hongru praised Du Yimeng and did not forget to mention the people in the technical department.

Sure enough, his words were very effective, and the people in the technical department subconsciously straightened their chests.

His words “day and night” made Du Yimeng feel a little guilty. She only worked overtime last night and was unwilling to do so. She suppressed her embarrassment and showed a slightly shy smile.
