Crossing the Western Tianshan Mountains

"Ling, Secretary Ling... these sheepskins can be made into gloves, sheepskin coats, and other things. My craftsmanship is good, I can make them for you for free."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hanati got upset. He walked over and kicked her, almost knocking her to the ground. "What's free? Dolls at home don't cost money! Ten sheepskins would cost at least a thousand yuan. You can't make them without money!"

Ayala almost fell, so Ling Fengxi quickly helped her up. It was during this help that he saw the bracelet on her hand.

The bracelet was originally a very ordinary stone bracelet, but it contained a green jade stone which had been polished very smooth. However, Ling Fengxi still recognized it at a glance. After a moment of surprise, he looked at Ayala's face... At this time, Ayala also knew that he must have recognized her, so she calmed down and looked at him with a smile.

The image in Ling Fengxi's mind gradually overlapped with the image in front of him. He was shouting in his mind, "Ayala, it's her, it's Ayala!"

Ayala pulled her hand out of Ling Fengxi's and said, "Secretary Ling, thank you."

Ling Fengxi's heart was filled with a storm, but his expression remained normal, even a little cold and inhuman. He said nothing, turned around, and said to Ye Minglang, "Give them one thousand yuan and tell them to make as many sets of gloves and hats as they can from these sheepskins."

Ye Minglang responded, walked up to Hanati and said, "One thousand yuan for you."

Hanati then hummed, a satisfied look on his face, and yelled at Ayala, "Why don't you pack up quickly? What are you standing there for?"

Ayala quickly went to collect the sheepskins. Hanati began to slaughter the second sheep and said, "I really lost a sheep. The last time, it was stolen by one of your workers. Now it's lost again. I would have suspected your workers first, but since you're so generous and willing to buy my sheep, I'll let that one go. But stealing someone else's sheep will only make your mouth rot!"

Ling Fengxi's mind was in a mess, but he still heard some questions from his words. After thinking for a while, he said, "Ye Minglang, tell everyone to find the sheep. Even if it has been eaten, we must find the sheep bones."

"Yes."

At this time, many workers who were off duty came over and watched Hanati slaughter the sheep. They were all amazed by his skills in slaughtering sheep. Ayala was also turned into the circle of people. While she was squatting there to clean the sheepskin, some workers were taking pictures. Ayala seemed very restrained and raised her arms to block the camera.

Ling Fengxi happened to see through the gap in the crowd and suddenly shouted, "Get out!"

Ling Fengxi is the leader, and everyone on the West Tianshan Tunnel project knows him. They also know that Ling Fengxi is a gentleman. When he suddenly got angry this time, the workers were frightened and hurriedly dragged each other out of the canteen compound.

Without the cheers, Hanati was a little dissatisfied. "Secretary Ling, if they want to watch, then they can watch. Why are you chasing them away?"

Ling Fengxi opened his mouth but said nothing. However, Ayala understood what Ling Fengxi meant. He didn't want her to be watched, so he drove people away.

Ayala looked at Ling Fengxi with understanding and gratitude, but Ling Fengxi remained indifferent, "Killing sheep is too bloody. It wouldn't be good if the workers saw it."

After that, he said to Ye Minglang, "You help here, I have something to leave first."

Ye Minglang responded with "yes" again.

Ling Fengxi returned to his room and unexpectedly ran into Fang Ya. As a doctor, she could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Ling Fengxi. She asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? You look so pale. Did someone make you angry?"

She placed the medicine on the table and poured him a glass of water. "I have to watch you drink this medicine. The temperature in the tunnel hasn't been well regulated lately. It's been too hot. The workers are sweating profusely, and when they come out of the tunnel, they're blown by the cold wind. Many of them have caught colds. It's the flu, which is easily contagious. This medicine is for prevention."

Ling Fengxi just sat in the chair in a daze, not saying a word. Fang Ya peeled two pills from the medicine plate and placed them in his hand, "Take it."

This time he didn't resist and listened obediently, but Fang Ya felt more and more that something was wrong with him. She stared at Ling Fengxi and asked, "What happened? You look really bad."

Ling Fengxi just shook his head gently, "I'm a little tired, you go out."

Fang Ya had no choice but to nod and walked out. She closed the door but couldn't help but look inside. It was quiet inside and there was no movement. Fang Ya left in confusion.

During dinner, Fang Ya deliberately approached Ye Minglang. At this time, the Hanati couple had already left, and the chefs made two large pots of mutton pilaf, so the food tonight was really good.

Fang Ya asked Ye Minglang while holding the pilaf, "Is this your boss? Why didn't he come to eat?"

Ye Minglang glanced around and said, "No, I'll call him later and send it to him. You know, Secretary Ling often misses meals because of work."

Fang Ya said, "Ye Minglang, did your Secretary Ling encounter any problems today?"

"What happened?" Ye Minglang scratched his head and thought for a moment. "The inspection team has already left. They gave us ten sheep when they left. Apart from that, nothing else happened."

"Inspection working group?" Fang Ya understood in her heart. They must have found some problems in the work and felt that Ling Fengxi's work was not done well, so they were going to criticize him.

Fang Ya nodded, thinking that she understood the reason of the matter, but then she thought again, Ling Fengxi was a golden phoenix that flew out of a mountain, and now he has become a secretary who can stand on his own. He has experienced everything, so why would he lose his mind because of a work inspection?

But it was obvious that Ye Minglang didn't know what had happened, and she couldn't ask more questions, so she could only remind Ye Minglang, "Your leader looks very unwell, you have to take good care of him. The camp has been full of people with colds these days, so don't catch one. It's not fatal, but it's very uncomfortable."

Ye Minglang said: "Doctor Fang, I understand."

……

In fact, Ling Fengxi was still not calm at this time. He kept thinking about the scene where Hanati kicked Ayala.

In his impression, Ayala was beautiful and passionate, and at the same time, she possessed the intelligence and gentleness unique to women. Compared with Gulinar, who was as scorching as the sun, Ayala was more like the bright moon hanging high in the sky, a little bit cold but more accompanied by gentleness.

She is also very beautiful, so beautiful that she is unforgettable.

But when he saw her again today, she had become an ordinary, even somewhat sloppy middle-aged woman, without a trace of makeup on her face. Due to years of wind and sun exposure, her skin was dark yellow and even a little black. More importantly, her eyes, although she still gave him the same smile as before.

But this smile contained more lack of confidence, even apology.

Ayala shouldn't be like this.
