Chapter 6 The Strange Man Who Lives Halfway Up the Mountainside III
The morning sun fell into the window and sprinkled on Chang An's body, she woke up in the sun, blinked her sleepy eyes, and sat up from the bed.
Walking out of the room, Chang Mei was preparing breakfast for her in the kitchen. After she finished washing, she sat at the dining table, staring blankly at her phone. Because before she left, the two left each other's phone calls, Zhao Jian said that if she passed the test, she would call her and find a suitable time to sign the contract, so she couldn't miss any news, because of this job, Chang An was very interested and sure to take it.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for someone to call.
"Hello, I'm Zhao Jian, we met yesterday. ”
"Hello. ”
"After about an hour or two, the work agreement will be delivered to your home, and you can take a closer look at it, and if there is no problem, sign the agreement, and bring it with you when you come to work tomorrow. Zhao Jian briefly recounted, and at the end, he added: "By the way, considering that Miss Lin's house is some distance from here, it is best to live in a villa during the translation process, after all, it is not safe to walk at night." ”
"Okay, thank you. ”
Chang An thanked politely, and then there was a busy sound from the other party, she closed the phone, and a smile rose on the corner of her mouth.
"Ding-dong-"
The doorbell rings.
Chang An got up to open the door, and the courier handed her the express. She opened it and saw that it was a work agreement sent from there.
"1. The content of the collated materials cannot be disclosed to the outside world. 2. Organize the required documents every day according to the requirements...... "Chang An read the agreement silently from top to bottom, and found no problems, so he signed the column of Party B at the end of the agreement.
After signing, the moment she looked up, her eyes were attracted by the column of Party A, and the words "Gu Li" were written very beautifully, just like the handwritten manuscript paper yesterday.
Chang An couldn't help but wonder, what kind of person is he who can write such beautiful handwriting?
Early the next morning, Chang An briefly said a few words to his mother, and then left the house in a hurry and arrived at the villa as promised. She slammed the door open, only with a slight force. When she looked down, she saw a key still stuck in the lock.
It must have been specially left for her, so she didn't think much about it before pulling out the key and putting it in her pocket. Walking in, the room is bright, but the silence is terrible, and there is no popularity.
The living room was still what she remembered, except for a table and a chair in the corner of the window, with a thick stack of manuscript paper and a laptop on it.
When she approached, she found that there was still a note left on the table, with neat handwriting on it, but it was obviously not from the hand of that Gu Li.
The content on the note was simple, "The range of activities is on the first floor, everything is at your own convenience, please do not step on the second floor." ”
Chang An put down the note, walked around the first floor, found a bright and spacious guest room with a night view outside the window, and took his luggage in.
After getting acquainted with it, she was ready to go and sort out the information. As she passed the staircase, she glanced up, only to glance at it, and then withdrew her gaze. She quickly took a seat at her desk and began her day's work.
She casually picked up a few manuscript papers on her face, flipped through them left and right, and found that the content written on each manuscript paper was different, different cases, different types, different languages... In short, there are a lot of differences.
Chang An looked at the manuscript paper in his hand, then looked at the table, and suddenly felt that the work was heavy.
She didn't understand why the other party didn't stack the manuscript paper when he finished writing the content of a case? In this way, he couldn't waste any time, and it was also very convenient for him to look through or sort it out, so why did he need to spend a lot of money to hire someone to do this kind of work!
After thinking about it, Chang An came to the conclusion: There is money to live and burn panic.
She tapped her head, as if to confirm her answer, and began to work with her head down. She hung her head the whole time, and only got up from her seat once, that is, when she got up and poured a glass of water.
It was fast, early in the morning when she sat there, and it was dusk when she looked up again. Sure enough, as soon as I got busy, I forgot to sleep and eat.
Chang An got up and looked out the window at the sunset, the sun receded from the other side of the mountain, evoking the night. She stood in front of the window for a moment, finally feeling a little hungry, and walked into the kitchen, and when she opened the refrigerator, it was empty. She rummaged through the cupboard for a few more moments, but there was nothing but pots and pans and the like.
She shook her head helplessly, turned around and picked up her backpack, and walked out of the villa.
On the second floor
Two slender figures were sitting at the table, the room was dark, and the two were staring intently at the projection screen on the wall, until Chang An left the villa, and then turned their eyes.
On the screen is the whole picture of the entire first floor, which clearly records Chang'an's every move. Obviously, they are still trying to find out whether the new woman is still at ease.
Then Zhao Jian got up, opened the curtains, pressed the switch on the side, and the lights lit up, and the room was bright. He turned his head and looked at Gu Li, "This person, you should be satisfied, right?"
Gu Li pillowed his head with his hands, folded his legs on the chair at his feet, leaned on the swivel chair, his eyes stayed on the white ceiling, and two words popped out of his mouth: "Make do." ”
The voice was low and clear, and there was no fluctuation in the tone.
Zhao Jian looked at Gu Li who looked like this, and had the urge to hit someone, so he gave him a roll of his eyes angrily, and stopped talking.
The two were silent for a long time before Zhao Jian spoke again: "I'll go back to Y City tomorrow." ”
"Have a nice trip. ”
The other party is still cold, and he cherishes words like gold.
"Hey, I said you, will you die if you say a few more words?" I'll leave tomorrow, so let's show my reluctance!" Zhao Jian seemed to be complaining.
Gu Li didn't even think about it, so he refused: "No." ”
Zhao Jian is still complaining: "You are cold-blooded, you are ruthless." ”
"It always has been. Gu Li was not annoyed, and admitted it very generously.
Zhao Jian tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I haven't eaten for a day, and I'm starving to death." Forgive me for not accompaniing, farewell. ”
"Walk slowly, don't send. ”
Zhao Jian strode to the door, paused again, and turned around, "Take good care of yourself and remember to eat." The tone was full of concern.
"Hmm. ”
When Zhao Jian went downstairs, he happened to meet Chang An, who came back from outside, and the two exchanged a few words. When he left, he said to Chang An: "I'm leaving tomorrow, please help me take care of him, he is very withdrawn." ”
Chang An didn't refuse or agree, she didn't know much about that man, just looking back, how much could she know?
After Zhao Jian left, Chang An was busy in the kitchen.
The room is full of lights, and the occasional burst of fragrance wafts out of the kitchen, lingering in the room. At this moment, finally let this house have some fireworks.
Gu Li walked down from the upper floor, and when he walked through the living room, he paused, he turned his head, and saw the busy figure reflected on the glass door of the kitchen, as well as the faint fragrance of vegetables passing the tip of his nose, which made his heart beat faster inexplicably.
He froze for a few seconds, then stepped up and poured a glass of water and turned to go upstairs.
Chang An came out of the kitchen and happened to catch a glimpse of Gu Li who was going upstairs, and she called out to him: "Gu... Mr. Gu, I made the dishes, you ...... Would you like to eat with me?"
For some reason, she was a little nervous when she spoke.
The other party turned his head sideways, revealing a well-defined side face, and his voice was very light: "No need." ”
"Oh. ”
Chang An looked at his departing back, and only withdrew his gaze until he disappeared from sight. just glanced at it for a while, and at a glance, it was confused.
It was a long time before she sat down at the table and began to eat.
