Yunhai City, Lianyun District.

Central Business District, a high-end office building.

At 10 p.m., it was supposed to be the time to go to bed with the lights out, but it was still brightly lit.

On the 22nd floor of the office building there is an angel network company.

The company has few employees, only more than 30 people.

At this time, all employees, including the boss, are working overtime.

The company recently took over a project and is catching up with the schedule, and the boss promised that as long as the project is completed well, everyone will have a considerable year-end bonus and overtime pay.

Wang Xiaochuan, a 23-year-old young man, has just graduated from college and has been a new employee for less than half a year.

After graduating from university, Wang Xiaochuan was very satisfied with getting such a job.

But after a few months, he felt that he could not bear it.

Although the pay here is high, the work intensity is also high, and this situation of working overtime until 11 or 2 o'clock has been two weeks in a row, not only do there be no weekends, but sometimes you have to stay here all night.

What makes Wang Xiaochuan feel even worse is that if he does a little bad work, he will be scolded by the boss.

The double pressure of physical and psychological made Wang Xiaochuan tired and planned to change jobs.

Alas, when I graduated from college, I should have listened to the advice of my parents and went back to my hometown to take the civil service exam.

However, although he is tired and tired now, Wang Xiaochuan still endured the year-end bonus at the end of the year.

I thought to myself, when I got the year-end bonus, I would go home for the New Year and make another plan.

At 10:20 p.m., Wang Xiaochuan was grumbling with hunger.

He wants to eat supper and is worried about gaining weight, he doesn't want to become a pot-bellied man at a young age.

Thinking of a few middle-aged male colleagues in the company, the hair is less and the belly is bigger, and the spiritual guy of the year has become a greasy middle-aged man.

It is said that these are all caused by overtime and supper.

Alas, it's better to have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself.

Wang Xiaochuan went to the pantry to make a cup of coffee and brought it back to his desk.

The aroma of coffee permeates the entire office.

Smelling the fragrance, other colleagues seemed to be hungry, and a few people got up one after another to go to the coffee room to brew coffee.

Next to Wang Xiaochuan's desk is Li Dachuan.

Although the names of the two people have a Sichuan character, they are not related at all.

Li Dachuan, who is in his 40s, is a veteran employee of the angel network company.

In Wang Xiaochuan's eyes, Li Dachuan is the kind of greasy middle-aged male employee.

Hair volume is sparse to bald.

The stomach is greasy and bulging, and the shirt can't cover the bulging stomach and lower abdomen, and then tie the skin to bring out a swimming ring.

Although Li Dachuan is a veteran employee, his salary is not much more than that of a new employee, and every overtime is added to the end.

Wang Xiaochuan once quietly asked him why he worked so hard?

Li Dachuan is very helpless: there are old and young, and people dare not lose their jobs in middle age.

Now that the network technology is upgrading, he has no advantage over newcomers in technology, and his education is only an ordinary undergraduate, and he has no excellent technical expertise, the only advantage is his qualifications, but sometimes qualifications are also shortcomings.

In order not to be eliminated, Li Dachuan worked overtime until the latest every time, but he didn't seem to be favored by his boss, and he has become more and more anxious recently.

"Brother Okawa, do you want to drink coffee? I'll help you make a cup?"

Wang Xiaochuan saw Li Dachuan sitting at the work table next to him staring at the computer screen in a daze, and seemed to have encountered a problem, so he wanted to make him a cup of coffee and activate his work thoughts.

Li Dachuan came back to his senses, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Thank you, no need, my wife asked me to lose weight, coffee energy is too much." ”

"Why don't you make a cup of green tea? ”

Wang Xiaochuan felt that Li Dachuan's mental state was not good, and based on the love of his colleagues, he took the initiative to care about it.

Li Dachuan took out a bag of Banlan Root Powder from his bag, "I drink this, do you want to drink it?"

"It's medicine. ”

"Well, the banlang root that cures all diseases, cures diseases, and prevents diseases, and my throat has been itching recently, I'm afraid I'm going to catch a cold, drink some banlan root to prevent it. ”

Li Dachuan tore open the bag of Banlangen Powder, poured it into his empty water cup, took the cup to the pantry to pour a cup of hot water, returned to the desk and sighed, "People, when I reach a certain age, I will be sick, no matter how late I worked overtime, I woke up in the morning on the second day like no one, unlike now, my head is bald, my stomach is bulging, and I still have pain." ”

"Brother Dachuan, didn't you go to the hospital to check?" Wang Xiaochuan asked in a low voice.

"No need to check, there is nothing wrong with it, it's all a small problem, even if you go to the hospital, the doctor also asks you to pay more attention to rest, just prescribe some medicine, the medicine prescribed last time has not been finished." ”

Li Dachuan took out two bottles of medicine from his bag and showed them to Wang Xiaochuan, they were all Chinese patent medicines that regulate the spleen and stomach.

"The Chinese medicine you see?"

"Yes, I feel uncomfortable, but I don't know where I feel uncomfortable, I don't know which department to see, so I go to see Chinese medicine for conditioning. ”

Speaking of the problems on his body, Li Dachuan felt that his throat was itchy again, coughed twice, and quickly pressed it down with the freshly washed banlangen.

Suddenly, the door of the boss's separate office opened, and the staff who had been drinking coffee and talking quietly in the large office outside immediately quieted down.

"Okawa, come here!" the boss didn't speak loudly, but it was very majestic.

Li Dachuan hurriedly put down the banlangen in his hand and trotted into the boss's office.

At this point in time, being called into the office by the boss must be no good.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, Li Dachuan came out of the boss's office and hung his head dejectedly.

As soon as he sat down, Wang Xiaochuan stretched out his head, "What's the matter? What is the boss looking for you?"

"Hey, rush me to make progress, it looks like it's going to be an all-nighter again tonight. Li Dachuan said and poured a large mouthful of banlan root.

"Aren't you catching up?"

"The boss is going to speed up again, alas, anyway, I must work overtime tonight. ”

"Brother Dachuan, you've stayed up all night for three nights in a row, can you still survive today?"

Li Dachuan smiled bitterly, "It's okay, I have bedding here, so I order takeout when I'm really hungry, but my wife said that I should eat less takeout, and now it seems that it is not okay not to eat." ”

"Brother Dachuan, if you speed up on your side, then I must also speed up on my side, although the boss didn't talk to me, but I stayed here with you today to work overtime. ”

1:30 a.m.

Most of the lights in the CBD office buildings have been turned off.

Most of the Angel Network employees on the 22nd floor have gone home from work, but there are still a few night lights on.

The night lights on Li Dachuan and Wang Xiaochuan's desks are two of them.

Wang Xiaochuan had eaten a box of instant noodles just now, and now he is sleepy.

Rubbing your eyes and stretching your waist still can't stop the boundless sleepiness.

"Alas, no, Brother Okawa, I have to squint for a while. ”

Wang Xiaochuan propped up his simple folding bed in the small corridor next to his desk, dragged a quilt out of the cabinet, and prepared to take a nap.

Li Dachuan stared at the computer screen, his expression numb, and when he heard Wang Xiaochuan's movements, he knew that someone was talking to him.

"Oh, you rest first, I'll catch up, I'll turn the lights down. ”

The light dimmed again, and the light of the computer screen shone on Li Dachuan's face, turning blue and white like a zombie.
