XXXIII. Keys

"Eh, are you on your way over?" As soon as the phone was connected, Huang Lu's voice came out of the earpiece. It's just that compared to the little impatience that I would carry every time I spoke before, this time the tone was rarely softened a lot.

I don't know if it's Lin Xiao's delusion, and I even feel that there is a void in his tone.

"No, I'll come later. Lin Xiao was curious and asked, "What's the matter, is there anything important that needs to be done in advance?"

"Oh, nothing important. Huang Lu cleared his throat and asked rhetorically: "Then why didn't you reply to the message? I sent you for a while, and I thought you were on the way." ”

"I'll see. Lin Xiao was a little puzzled, she was only talking to Qi Ji just now, and she really didn't notice that Huang Lu sent her a message. While thinking this, he clicked on the dialog box.

Ten minutes ago, Huang Lu: Eh, about the after-sales of that little girl last time, I want to call her and ask her, how do you think it is better to speak?

I didn't expect it to be for this matter.

Last time, Huang Lu had a phone call with the other party, and after repeatedly confirming that the other party's emotional state was relatively stable in all aspects, he didn't talk about this aspect in advance. Lin Xiao was sure that Huang Lu would not just put this matter down, and planned to find a chance to ask again in a few days, but he didn't expect that the other party would take the initiative to ask now.

"But I don't have any good ideas for a while now, why don't you come to the studio later and talk?" Lin Xiao proposed.

A few days have passed, and the other party's emotional state should have returned to almost stability, but the more this happens, the more careful the wording. If you are too rash, it will inevitably make the other party think more, and if you are emotionally sensitive, you may also remind the other party of those negative energy explosions, which is self-defeating.

"Okay, that's what I think too, don't be in a hurry and don't have to come up with a reason right away. ”

Lin Xiao suddenly became even more puzzled, why did he call to urge him because he didn't reply immediately, but now he is not in a hurry and doesn't need to reply immediately?

"By the way, what's the matter, are you okay now?"

Lin Xiao wanted to ask rhetorically, "Are you okay?" but he still held back, frowned and asked, "Now that you're outside, come over right away." ”

"Oh," Huang Lu coughed heavily twice and said, "Do you want to help me bring some cold dishes before you come to the company." ”

"Isn't there one in the community?

The place where Vantes is located is more like a small village than a community. There are not only factories, supermarkets, and kiosks, but also all kinds of small restaurants and mobile stalls. Huang Lu is awkward, he often eats a cold vegetable shop that sells on a tricycle, and from time to time he has to howl a few times in his throat, refusing any cold food except for that one, and one day if the boss opens a physical store, he will also be passionate about shares.

"I didn't ...... It's on. ”

"On or not on?"

"It's open, but I want to change the flavor today. ”

"What?"

"I remember that you seem to live near the new business district? there is an old He cold dish there, and I want to eat that one today. Huang Lu said quickly as if he was afraid that she would hang up the phone.

Lao He Liangcai is quite famous, it is said that he was also born as a roadside stall before, and then slowly made a fortune and opened the store in the center of the new business district.

It's just that Huang Lu has to be sick to ask her to buy him food so solemnly?

"Okay. Lin Xiao only hesitated, but agreed.

"If that's nothing else, I'll hang up. After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he was just about to hang up the phone, when he heard a few more ehs on the other side of the receiver.

"What's the matter?" Lin Xiao completely lost his patience, and Huang Lu became very special today.

"And by the way, help me get the car keys. ”

"Car keys?" Lin Xiao's voice unconsciously rose by at least two degrees, passers-by turned their heads curiously to look at her, Lin Xiao turned his back and walked quickly to a place against the wall to stand.

"Well, it's not far away!" Huang Lu hurriedly explained, and his tone was rarely a little weak-hearted and flattering, and said, "Just at Lao He Liangcai's place, someone will bring the key over." ”

No wonder I suddenly felt like a demon today, and I must want to eat that cold dish.

With such a toss to eat, why don't you simply close the clothing store and open a food city!

After Lin Xiao hung up the phone, he sighed helplessly. When I was with Qi Ji just now, I still felt in my heart that although Huang Lu's temper was a little worse, it was normal for him to be a bad person. Now it seems that maybe people are not very normal.

However, Lin Xiao finally agreed to him, anyway, it was all a matter of the way.

The only thing that's a little awkward is ......

Lao He Liangcai is in the food court in the new business district, and VISION is also nearby.

As a new commercial center that has only been built for a few years, the new business district looks quite magnificent in terms of planning and design.

The towering office buildings are scattered and surrounded around the entertainment plaza, and to get to the food court further in, you have to walk through the office complex.

I guess it's because it's not yet time to eat, and the surroundings seem quite quiet. The plane trees on both sides of the road had not yet begun to turn yellow and their leaves had not yet begun to turn yellow, so that they could only be heard as the leaves collided when the wind blew.

The ginkgo biloba near the square had all turned golden, and occasionally the wind blew, and the golden leaves fell to the ground with a stagger.

bleak, but full of poetry.

Lin Xiao rarely or even almost never came out at this point in time before, and when he came back after such a long time, he still felt a little abrupt and unfamiliar.

Lao He Liangcai was not in the food city, but outside near the edge, Lin Xiao rode all the way to find a yellow line area dedicated to parking non-motorized vehicles and stopped.

As soon as he took off his helmet, Lin Xiao felt that a sight fell on him in front of him, and he subconsciously raised his eyes to look, and then he was stunned in place.

Press the remote control to lock the car, and the battery car makes a stabbing call, which is even louder in the current empty environment.

Turning around and looking up at the other party, Lin Xiao sighed helplessly: "Hey, boss!"

In fact, she didn't want to greet the other party, but the other party happened to be standing in front of the cold food shop, and there was no way to avoid it.

"CHLOE!" He Qixin glanced up and down at the person in front of him, and his expression was still very obvious in disbelief.

"Hmm. Lin Xiao nodded, took a deep breath, and prepared to bypass the other party to go to the store.

Just by glancing at each other a few times just now, He Qixin's eyes leaked too much, and without asking, Lin Xiao probably knew what he was going to say next. But these topics are all things that Lin Xiao doesn't want to mention now.

She can tell Qi Ji very calmly that she doesn't know her current plans and thoughts about the job of Fantes, but she just thinks that it is good to stay now, so she chooses to stay. But she couldn't say it to He Qixin, to her boss when she was at VISION.

No idea, no plan, no know.

It didn't sound like what she Lin Xiao would have if she would say it.

"What are you doing here?" He Qixin obviously didn't intend to just say hello, he frowned and looked at the battery car behind him, and said, "What about your car?

"Well," Lin Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said in a relaxed tone: "But I don't need it much, so I didn't buy a new one." ”

"Not enough money?"

"Part of the reason. Lin Xiao raised his head and looked at the other party and said helplessly: "The most important thing is that I don't need it much now." ”

He Qixin is always like this, he can see through the embarrassment of others at a glance, but at some times he is too stubborn to do it, he must break the casserole and ask the other party to the end and let the other party admit his thoughts.

If you don't achieve your goal, you won't give up, and you won't save face at all.

"Got a new job?"

Just when Lin Xiao thought that the other party would definitely continue to hold on to the topic of the car, he coldly heard He Qixin say this.

"Ahh Lin Xiao subconsciously responded, hesitated, nodded, and replied formally: "Hmm." ”

No matter how hard the human spirit is, it must be perfunctory in front of him, so it is better to admit it directly.

Merely......

A bad intuition rose in Lin Xiao's heart.

Sure enough, in the next second, she heard He Qixin ask, "Where is Huang Lu?" The tone was flat and unwavering, as if she was saying something that was too ordinary to be ordinary.

"Hmm. Lin Xiao's intuition was confirmed.

Huang Lu and He Qixin really knew each other.

It also makes sense why he asked himself about VISION at the beginning of the interview. It's just that the relationship between the two shouldn't be very familiar.

"Out of breath. He Qixin snorted coldly and looked at Lin Xiao condescendingly, his eyes full of disdain.

Lin Xiao suddenly lost the desire to continue.

"What are you doing on his side?

"Mixed. Lin Xiao replied quite succinctly.

He Qixin's eyebrows raised slightly, and he didn't take her indifference seriously, and asked directly: "How long do you plan to mix?"

"I don't know, I don't have an idea. ”

"After two days of the Shanghai exhibition, pack up and get ready, and go around a few laps with me. ”

"I'm not going. ”

"You've had too many breaks in between, so be prepared to stay there for four days. ”

"Don't go. ”

"The specific departure time has not been decided, it is estimated that it will still leave in the morning, but you don't need to follow the company's car, I will ask the driver to pick you up at your house when the time comes." YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO TO THE VENUE WHEN YOU GET THERE, SPINDEX IS GOING TO COME OVER, AND WHEN THE TIME COMES, GO MEET THEM WITH ME FIRST. ”

"I said it," Lin Xiao once again interrupted He Qixin's self-talk, and repeated what he just said word by word: "I'm not going." ”

"It's not for you to return to work right away this time," He Qixin frowned fiercely, looked at her inexplicably, and said, "It's just like attending a gathering of friends, eating and chatting together, and getting a general understanding of the market changes in the next half year." ”

"Then why do I understand?" Lin Xiao asked rhetorically.

He Qixin was choked unprepared, angry and happy, looked at her funny and asked, "Then what do you say you understand?"

Lin Xiao didn't speak.

"I understand you, I haven't bothered you for more than half a year, and now that the time is almost up, and the vacation for myself is long enough, it's time to return to looking for a job. ”

"I already have ...... now"

"Messing around with Huang Lu?" He Qixin laughed.

He Qixin looks handsome and beautiful, and his personality form and style are completely different. Those who are not familiar with him, at first glance, may think that he is "inviting" very gently.

But Lin Xiao, who has been cooperating for so many years, knows that he is very unhappy, close to the edge of anger.

Huang Lu's figure suddenly appeared in Lin Xiao's mind, both of whom had a bad and violent personality, but compared to the two, Huang Lu was better to get along with.

At least Huang Lu, all emotions will be shown on his face, even if he often quarrels with Qin Yueyue and others, and seems to be arrogant and tough, there will still be room for further communication.

But he didn't work at all.

In any case, his emotions have been well contained, and his impatience may only be five points, but it has actually reached ten points. At the same time, what he has already determined, there can be no questioning and resistance.

There is no room for communication.

"After a few years of hard work, I finally got the road in front of me smooth, and now is the time for the harvest to go further," He Qixin paused, looked at Lin Xiao and said coldly: "Just give up so easily?"

"It's not to give up," Lin Xiao met his gaze and said, "I don't think it's easy." It's just that the tone is devoid of the toughness and dissatisfaction just now.

The two were relatively silent for a long time, but Lin Xiao was the first to break the silence and said, "Give me the key." ”

He Qixin threw the key over, Lin Xiao took it, turned around and took two steps outside, only to remember her other purpose of coming. I could only talk silently in my heart, and turned around and walked to the store.

"Living people always have things to do in life, and they always have to move forward. ”
