In the evening, when Li Xin told Wan Shui the news that he was going back the day after tomorrow, she pondered for a long time and asked, "How long are you going to go back?"

Li Xin said: "That is, it will be more than a week, and I will come back after the Spring Festival." ”

After hearing this, Wan Shui said, "Oh. She didn't talk much after that, and her mood was not high throughout the night. Li Xin accompanied her cautiously, for fear that she would say something wrong and make her cry.

The next afternoon, after Master Su left, Wan Shui came to Li Xin's dormitory to help him wash the quilt and bed sheets. She cleaned up and said, "You guys are really shabby, it's about the same as a student dormitory." ”

Li Xin said: "The dormitory of the office can still be compared with home?"

Wan Shui said: "I have hardly been to this building, are there many people?"

Li Xin said: "There are many offices of units upstairs and downstairs, and people come and go, which feels like a hotel, but now there are few people, and they have all gone back for the holidays." ”

Wan Shui said: "It feels cold in this corridor, are you cold here?

Li Xin said: "It's not cold, it's good, it's warmer than what you bought in the store." ”

Wan Shui said: "If you like it, when you come back, I will knit you another vest." ”

The next day, Li Xin got up early in the morning to catch the passing train at 5 o'clock in the morning. Wan Shui insisted on going to the station to see him off, but Li Xin said that she still dissuaded her.

It's too early, there are almost no pedestrians on the road, and it's a long way to get from the Wanshui dormitory to the platform. This is a suburb, the lights are dark, and Li Xin is worried that she will not be safe on the way back alone.

More than three hours later, when Li Xin returned to Jiangcheng, it was the time to go to work in the morning, so he took a taxi directly from the train station to the company.

He wants to report to the company this morning, ask what arrangements the company has in the past few days, if there is nothing else, he plans not to go to the company in the afternoon, and come back tomorrow.

As soon as she entered the office, she saw Xia Xiaona sitting at the desk reading a book, so she greeted her with a smile and said, "Secretary Xia, what are you busy with?"

Xia Xiaona looked up and saw that it was Li Xin, who seemed to be very surprised at first, and then a shallow smile flashed on her face, and she replied lightly: "I'm back." After saying that, he lowered his head and read the book.

Xia Xiaona's attitude surprised Li Xin, he felt that her expression was a little strange, and her smile was unnatural, as if she was dealing with a stranger and didn't want to speak.

This is not the familiar Xia Xiaona, what's wrong?

He then asked, "Have you been busy in the company lately?"

Xia Xiaona said without raising her head: "It's not the same as before, it's not busy"

Seeing her lukewarm answer, Li Xin also felt bored, he vaguely felt that there was something going on here, but he really couldn't guess what he had to do, so he had to stop talking.

He went to the door and found a rag, wiped the table and chair that had been idle for several months, took out various bills from his bag when he was on a business trip, pasted them one by one on the back of the reimbursement form, and sent them to the finance department for review.

The people in the finance department said that the list should be put first, anyway, Manager Yao is not there, and he will come to get it tomorrow after the review.

Li Xin thought about it, and came out after chatting in the finance room for a while.

After the former office director was removed, this position has been vacant, and all affairs are directly managed by Ma Tianming, and Li Xin went to the office also arranged for him, so Li Xin wanted to report to him and ask him how the work arrangements were in the past few days when he returned to the company.

When I went to the general manager's office, the door was locked, Li Xin knocked on it, but there was no response inside, it was estimated that there was no one.

After returning to his office, it was empty, so Li Xin put on his bag, locked the door, and went back to the dormitory.

As soon as Li Xin went out to the finance department with the list just now, Xia Xiaona closed the book, got up, put on her bag and went downstairs on a motorcycle and left.

But she didn't think about where to go until she left the company gate and drove onto the road, anyway, she just didn't want to stay in the office, didn't want to see Li Xin, and didn't want to talk to him.

When she came to the intersection, she hesitated for a moment, then turned right and drove north along the ring road, directly in the direction of the city library.

The reading room was quiet, and she could read a book for a while, she thought.

Yesterday afternoon, at the door of the boiler room downstairs of the company, she met Master Su who was in the same office as Li Xin, and she asked, "Master Su, I haven't seen you for a long time, when did you come back?"

Master Su, who was picking up the water, turned around and said, "Oh, it's Secretary Xia, I'm back today." ”

Xia Xiaona asked, "Are you coming back to do something?"

Master Su said: "No, the sugar below is finished, and I will come back when I have nothing to do, and I will go down after the Spring Festival." ”

Xia Xiaona thought for a moment and asked, "Is it?, is Li Xin also back with you?"

Master Su smiled and said, "No, I came back alone." Li Xin won't be back until tomorrow. ”

Xia Xiaona asked puzzledly, "Isn't it okay, why didn't he come back together?"

Master Su put the hot water bottle full of water on the lid and said, "He said that he had something to do, I guess he was reluctant to let his girlfriend go, and wanted to stay one more day, hehe." ”

Xia Xiaona asked in surprise, "Is his girlfriend in the office below?"

Master Su changed an empty hot water bottle and continued to receive water: "Yes, it seems to be working on the station, I have seen it once, it is very beautiful." This guy did a good job of secrecy, and I only recently learned about it. ”

Master Su said while receiving the water, not knowing that Xia Xiaona behind her had a great change in face when she heard these words.

Not long ago, a girl in Jiangcheng called the company to find Li Xin, saying that it was his girlfriend, because of this incident, she was depressed for several days, and she still hasn't eased up.

At this time, another of his girlfriends appeared in the office below, which made her feel as if it was a bolt from the blue.

How many girlfriends does he have? Why don't you see that he is such a caring person in the office?

The two things piled up, and her mood was even worse.

After work this morning, she was upset and found a collection of essays that she usually likes to read, looking through it, hoping to soothe her mood.

After watching it for a while, Li Xin came in. The last person she wanted to see at this moment appeared in front of her, and she couldn't stay in the office anymore.

She coped with two sentences coldly, then lowered her head and ignored him, and she had no intention of reading, she watched him with the rest of her eyes, stopped talking knowingly, wiped the table with a rag, and then sat opposite to write.

She wanted to get up and leave, but she couldn't move her steps in a paradoxical way. Eventually, after he left the room, she got up and walked out of the office.

Xia Xiaona's psychological changes, how could Li Xin know. He went out early in the morning to take the train, and the fatigue of the journey made him go back to the dormitory and fall asleep, and only got up at lunchtime.

Xia Xiaona came to the library and went straight to the reading room, it was now winter vacation, and the reading room of the city library was full of elementary and middle school students.

Xia Xiaona went in to find a seat and sat down, she took out the essay book in her bag and looked down. But after sitting for a long time, the original attractive words in the book are now not readable at all.

She looked at the students around her who were immersed in reading, and suddenly realized that her mood was a little out of place with the atmosphere here.

She had come here to find a quiet place to calm herself, but now she couldn't calm down, and the quiet surroundings reflected her own inner irritability.

The inadvertent gaze of the person opposite seemed to see the secret in her heart, making her feel like she was being watched.

She didn't sit long before she put away her books again, got out of the reading room, got on her motorcycle, and drove aimlessly and slowly along the ring road.

Before she knew it, she was out of town and walked a long way along the road to the lake in the suburbs.

The cold wind blew in his face, and he felt a chill on his body, fog in his helmet, his vision was a little blurred, and his hands in leather gloves were frozen.

On the edge of a field of green broad beans, she stopped her motorcycle, took off her helmet, got off the road, and walked along the ridge.

At this time, the gentle wind blowing in the face rolled up layers of green waves in the field, and it didn't feel as biting as when I rode on the motorcycle just now, and the air was full of fragrant bean blossoms.

Such a fresh pastoral scenery, like a wind sweeping away the morning mist, swept away the troubles in her heart in a blink of an eye.

She sat down on the top of the ridge, quietly watching the scene in front of her, letting the winter sun shine warmly on her body, and her thoughts could not help but gradually spread to the words in the essay collection.

After Li Xin got up and had lunch, he came to the exchange again when he had nothing to do. The price he learned a few days ago had already made his account have a floating profit of more than 200,000, and his mentality at this time is not as depressed as it was more than a month ago.

As soon as he entered the exchange's office, he noticed that the atmosphere inside was a little different from a few days ago.

When I came here a few days ago, most of the people inside were chatting, the whole office was chattering, and few people's eyes were glued to the screen. But today everyone in the room was silent, engrossed in staring at the computer screen.

When Lao Zhao saw Li Xin coming in, he looked at him with a strange look in his eyes and didn't speak.

Li Xin felt a little bad, hurried over to sit down next to the computer, looked at it, and was surprised: ", it's gone up so much!"

Li Xin's exclamation caused everyone to turn around, Wang Hong saw that it was Li Xin, and hurriedly said to him: "It's all 3650, don't hurry up and close the position!"

Li Xin pointed to the computer and asked her in disbelief: "It's only risen in the past few days?!"

Wang Hong said: "Isn't it, I remember that the price was less than 3,300 when you left that day, right?"

Wang Hong is right.

It is not surprising that Li Xin remembers the number at that time, but it is not easy for Wang Hong to remember it so clearly.

Li Xin couldn't help but admire her memory a little, and said, "Yes, it has risen by more than 300 points in just a few days, fierce!"
