Chapter 4: A Dream of the Red Chamber
In the aisle, there is only enough space for one person to pass through the family members who are standing or squatting anxiously waiting on both sides.
The frosted glass of the gate blocked the ridicule outside, and the red light reflected the three big words "during surgery", raising the hearts of the people in the aisle to their throats.
"Is Chu Yun's family here?"
"In ...... In the ......, a middle-aged man with shiny hair trembled and took the test sheet from the doctor's hand.
"Malignant, now I want to do the removal immediately, and I quickly bookmark the operation consent. The doctor's bland words shattered the man's last trace of faith, he leaned against the wall and covered his mouth, sliding down little by little, and only three words "what to do" were said in his mouth.
"I'm her daughter, I'll sign it. ”
The pen fell - Lin Xi.
Hei Tian's furry body circled around Lin Xi's face, very carefully and restrainedly trying to wake Lin Xi up.
Fang Feiyu opened the door and came out to get an ice coke, and looked at the clock hanging on the wall, it's half past eight, hasn't Lin Xi gotten up yet?
Walking into the bedroom, Hei Tian lay on the pillow, looking like he was afraid that Lin Xi would not wake up for a long time, he was very protective of the master, and looked at Fang Feiyu with humble and vigilant eyes.
Fang Feiyu smiled, put down the coke, tucked the quilt, and looked at Lin Xi who was sleeping. The long eyelashes are still dense and curled like a small brush, and Lin Xi doesn't know what he is dreaming about at this moment, frowning, and squeezing out a Sichuan character pattern.
Fang Feiyu kissed Lin Xi's forehead kissing, he didn't like to see Lin Xi frowning, he just hoped that she was still the sunny girl who loved to laugh at the beginning.
Lin Xi opened his eyes in a daze, Fang Feiyu's big face rushed straight into his brain, and Lin Xi subconsciously shrank back.
"Nightmare?"
Lin Xi shook his head, sat up, and grabbed his sleeping hair.
"Is there something wrong with the company?"
Lin Xi, who was still a little confused, just frowned and shook his head again.
"It's okay, isn't there still me. Fang Feiyu reached out and stroked the broken hair on Lin Xi's sideburns, and asked Lin Xi relaxedly, "What are we going to eat in the morning?"
"I'm not going to eat anymore, you can order your own takeout. Lin Xi sat on the bed, Fang Feiyu saw that she seemed to get up and angry again, so he picked up the cola and prepared to go back to the room, otherwise if he said a few more words, he would be the one who would suffer the next moment: "Eat some fruit, the apple will be bad if you don't eat it." ”
Lin Xi nodded in response.
She was still immersed in the dream just now, the scene was played over and over again, 6 years ago, her mother Chu Yun was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, and her stepfather Wang Qin collapsed at the door of the operating room, and she signed the operation consent form.
Lin Xi looked at the door of the study that had been closed, and the person inside, a sentence back then, almost became Lin Xi's only belief at that time. - "Don't be afraid, there's me. ”
Lin Xi has always believed that adversity sees the truth, and the man who can say this when he is most helpless is worthy of trust and dependence. It's just that time is slowly telling her that some people's promises can be on their lips like mantras, and no amount of comfort is just a gust of autumn wind sweeping away the leaves......
Lin Xi Shun Hei Tian's hair, picked up the mobile phone, the time was not early, maybe she was too deep in a dream, and the alarm clock didn't wake her up, but fortunately, the annual meeting was arranged today, and there was no work arrangement in the morning, and it was impossible to miss something if she was late.
The more life and death are at stake, the more turbulent it must be.
At the annual meeting of Orange Song, HR still made a decent arrangement under a limited budget.
"What will be the first prize this year?"
"Isn't it a new iPhone every year? ”
"Yes, I just want to change my phone. ”
"Cut, as if I could draw it. ”
The surrounding colleagues sat in the audience to discuss the lottery session of the annual meeting, but Jiao Ao stretched his neck and looked around at Lin Xi's figure, his waist-length straight hair swept around his back, and the Qi bangs in front of his forehead were also split because of shaking.
"Jiao Ao, don't wriggle around like a maggot, okay? Li Yirong glared at Jiao Ao angrily, and patted the hair falling on his thigh with his hand.
"What about the boss? How has the boss been elusive these days, and he hasn't seen a shadow since the annual meeting. Jiao Ao didn't stop writhing, and he didn't look back at Li Yirong. She always felt that something had happened to Lin Xi recently.
"Hey. Li Yirong sighed: "It's going to change the sky." ”
Hearing Li Yirong's sigh, Jiao Ao turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.
Li Yirong straightened up and leaned close to Jiao Ao's ear: "The company seems to have a problem with funds." After speaking, he looked at Jiao Ao with wide eyes, as if as long as his eyes were wide enough, his words would be credible enough.
Jiao Ao shrunk his neck in disgust: "You, you, you put away your soybeans squinting first." ”
Li Yirong is not tall, his eyes are not big, but he was born with a smiling face, the more he pretends to be serious, the more he looks at making people laugh, many colleagues in the company will take photos of him secretly to make emojis, and over time, even the boss Sheng Fan's mobile phone has a lot, and occasionally when he wants to get close to employees, he will throw out Li Yirong's emoji to show his affinity. According to Li Yirong's own words, it is too difficult for him to sell coolies for the company and contribute his portrait rights.
"Last time on the small balcony, I heard people from the marketing department discussing, saying that the company's capital chain was broken. Li Yirong covered his mouth with his hands and lowered his voice, if this word spread, or if others said that it came from his mouth, it would be bad.
If the capital chain is broken, it means that there is no money, and if there is no money, it will not be a layoff at the first time, Li Yirong does not want to become a rising bird and be defeated. And those wealthy masters in the marketing department, I am afraid that they have already made enough, and there is no point in staying with a company that has no money, so they are naturally not shy about it.
Seeing that Jiao Ao did not show the expression of his jaw dropping as he expected, Li Yirong was surprised: "Could it be that you already knew?"
Jiao Ao gave him a blank look: "Shut your stinky mouth." ”
Until the otaku from the technical department picked up the guitar and sang the second song, Lin Xi still did not appear in the seat of the operation department, and Jiao Ao decided to get up and go out to find her.
Since Lin Xi told her about the company's decision to merge business lines, she could clearly feel that Lin Xi's state was declining rapidly, at first Jiao Ao felt that it was good to let Lin Xi take a break, since she entered this company, she had not seen Lin Xi have a good rest, and after a few days, Jiao Ao began to worry about Lin Xi's ......
Originally, with Lin Xi's strength and qualifications, any management position in the company is more than enough, but after careful analysis, a CMO came a year ago, and the operation and market of the trading line were all taken over.
The more Jiao Ao thought about it, the more panicked he became, the CMO with Da Ali's business model was very wrong with Lin Xi, and there were disputes from time to time during the meeting, if Lin Xi really chose to leave, then he would ......
"Jiao Ao?"
As soon as Jiao Ao turned the hallway, he met Lin Xi.
"Why did you get out? Looking for a toilet? Over there. Lin Xi smiled and pointed to the back, and with her smile, Jiao Ao's original panic also went seven or eight points.
She grabbed Lin Xi's wrist and walked briskly towards the corner of the hallway. A long-haired beautiful girl with a height of 173cm and wearing a Lolita costume is pulling a woman in her early 160s and wearing a dull professional outfit, galloping all the way, this picture is a bit too out of the circle......
"Boss, are you leaving?" Jiao Ao lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Xi.
Being asked by her suddenly, Lin Xi was stunned for a few seconds and smiled: "Who did you listen to?"
"I guessed it myself. ”
Seeing Jiao Ao's solemn expression, Lin Xi dispelled the idea of teasing her: "Don't guess, I won't go." ”
"Really?"
was asked by Jiao Ao like this, Lin Xi didn't know how to answer for a while, if he wanted to stay, in fact, Lin Xi didn't want to leave, he stayed in a big factory, and experienced entrepreneurship from 0 to 1, even in the Internet winter, it shouldn't be difficult to find a decent job. But now is the time for the company's survival, if she leaves, then the team she has formed, the arrangement of personnel will be decided by other departments, and although the company departments are harmonious on the surface, but some mustard has been around for a long time, if she leaves at this time, then how do they arrange Jiao Ao, aside from these, maybe Sheng Fan still needs her very much at present.
"If I decide to leave, I will definitely communicate with you in advance, and you know that the company is going to be reorganized, and we have a lot of things to do in the future, and we have to adjust our mentality to take over other businesses. Lin Xi said halfway through and pulled the lace on Jiao Oro's skirt: "It's cosplay today, I forgot ......"
"I'm playing the rain orange wind today. Jiao Ao was successfully beaten by Lin Xi, and when she realized it in a word, she was suddenly relieved, Lin Xi had already said her decision, so there was no need for more questions, choose to believe, choose to support, it's okay.
"And what about your heavy artillery?" Lin Xi asked rhetorically.
"The heavy artillery is too expensive, and it has to be customized, let's go. "As a mature coser, it is not so glorious to have no key props, fortunately, few people in the company understand, but Lin Xi knows a little bit of everything, and even knows the code of the cos circle, not to mention the current popular IP characters.
On the promenade, a group of people passed by, Jiao Ao's appearance was very eye-catching, Lin Xi was dragged by her with one hand and supported his forehead with the other. Although the idea of cos party is not bad, HR chose a hotel specializing in banquets and exhibitions, in order to appear that the company is tall, but to save the budget, so I had to rent a side hall.
At present, it is the boom of the annual meeting, and most of the venues for banquets and exhibitions are rented to listed companies or financial leaders......
At the moment when Lin Xi was dragged into the banquet hall, a burst of ebony incense penetrated into his nose, Lin Xi turned his head, and a long figure disappeared around the corner not far away.
"Xiaoxi, where did you run again, come and save me......" Zhao Donglai lay on the table, the wine glass in his hand was empty, but he still didn't let go, and estimated that he had already been poured a bottle or two of red wine.
Fu Junhuai put aside the hand he was lying on his shoulder, but Zhao Donglai was like an octopus, he simply hung on Fu Junhuai's neck, and his mouth was full of wine so that Fu Junhuai's brows were knotted.
"I'll tell you...... You have to help me......" Zhao Donglai gestured with his finger to his mouth, turning his head to look at the seat not far away.
"Jinna, Jinna she likes me......"
Fu Junhuai followed Zhao Donglai's gaze and happened to meet Zhou Yanna's eyes.
Zhou Yanna was a fawn for a while, maybe it was alcohol, she was a royal sister on weekdays, but she was shyly smiling at the moment.
Fu Junhuai helped Zhao Donglai, although the company did not explicitly prohibit office romance, but everyone has always been silently abiding by the rules, even if they are in love in private, they are just working partners on the table.
Zhou Yanna took advantage of the annual meeting to confess to the CEO, which ...... Isn't it a bit brainy?
Just as Fu Junhuai was thinking, Zhao Donglai stood up straight with excitement, raised his wine glass and said loudly: "I really want to live for another five hundred years!"
……
The wine and food are all together, and the lottery is over, except for some employees who have drunk too much, they are still frolicking, and the executives' table is also lying on their stomachs and pouring.
The product director, who had just joined this year, suddenly rushed to the table in the operation department, stared at Li Yirong, who had been flushed with alcohol, and suddenly chattered and kissed him mouth to mouth......
Jiao Ao almost dropped his jaw on the side, and the others had already cheered, Lin Xi looked at Sheng Fan who was already drunk next to him, fortunately this scene did not enter his eyes, otherwise these two men kissed in public, presumably Sheng Fan, a straight man, would faint directly......
After briefly cleaning up the drunk and dizzy Li Yirong, Jiao Ao sent a message to Lin Xi and left him first, while Zhen Zhaohui, the product director who made the earth-shattering move, still seemed to be sitting calmly at the executive's desk at the moment.
Sheng Fan, who had been drunk for a while, also raised his chin and changed to a posture on his back to continue to sober up.
"I'm sorry everyone. ”
Suddenly, there was a faint sentence, and the volume was not too loud, but everyone sitting was cold.
"I can't keep my promise. Sheng Fan didn't change his posture, still looking up at the ceiling. Perhaps, even if the eyes are wet, they will not shed tears.
I remember that in the early days, Lin Xi often saw Sheng Fan not leaving the company in the middle of the night, and when he got closer, he was not doing work, but copying something.
Sheng Fan said that he liked Dream of Red Mansions very much, and occasionally copied a few articles to practice calligraphy. In Lin Xi's opinion, perhaps this is also his way of relieving stress and depression.
And now this situation really responds to that sentence: everyone in the world knows that the gods are good, only gold and silver can't forget. In the end, he only hated to gather much, and when he got to it, his eyes were closed......
