A fork in the road in life

When I came to Jumei, I entered a café called "Sea View Coffee", but I didn't order anything, because it was a sea-themed coffee shop that paid upfront, and the drinks in it were very expensive, so of course I had to wait for Zhang Rixuan to come first.

After choosing an empty spot, I sent the name of the coffee shop to Zhang Rixuan by text message, and then found a fashion magazine to pass the time, to entertain the boredom, and the sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window has darkened, and the various lights that have been lit up have blurred the city shrouded in autumn rain, so I put down the magazine and listened to the sound of the rain hitting the window with some distraction......

Zhang Rixuan walked into the store without knowing what, she sat down across from me, looked at the empty table and asked, "Why don't you order something to drink?"

"Pay first, it's expensive, a pot of oolong tea costs more than 200, the owner of this shop is really dark!"

Zhang Rixuan ignored my complaints, beckoned the waiter, helped me with a pot of oolong tea, and ordered a cappuccino himself.

I tasted this pot of more than 200 tea, but I didn't taste anything special, so I was more sure that the boss was a profiteer, but I didn't think that my consumption grade was low.

I drank a cup of tea, then looked at Zhang Rixuan, who was stirring coffee with a spoon, and asked, "You don't seem to be in good spirits, have you been tired lately?"

"I'm a little tired!" Zhang Rixuan said, subconsciously rubbing his temples.

I raised my eyebrows and smiled: "You see you are just moving a stone to hit yourself in the foot, you said that you tried so hard to drive me out of the picture, otherwise you are tired, I still have the ability to take care of your daily life, and ensure that you are comfortable." ”

Zhang Rixuan frowned, and said in a cold tone: "Jiaming, don't make such a joke with me." ”

"Your thinking is a little drifting, I said to take care of your life, and you don't have to be your boyfriend or husband, right, it's also a male nanny, and I don't mind being your male nanny!"

Zhang Rixuan was speechless by my anger, and after saying "boring" for a while, he stopped paying attention to me, still stirring the coffee in his cup, but with a thinking expression.

After a while, I drank a pot of oolong tea, felt hungry, called the waiter again, asked for a pasta salad, and very attentively helped Zhang Rixuan order a tiramisu, of course, it was Zhang Rixuan who paid.

I don't mind taking advantage of a woman, she is much richer than me, and spending her money is just to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor, reconcile the main contradictions in society, and build a harmonious society.

I quickly ate a plate of pasta salad, then took out a bag of scarves from my backpack and handed it to Zhang Rixuan.

Zhang Rixuan took the scarf, his eyes inadvertently glanced at my Rickdas's backpack, and he couldn't help but smile on his face.

I said dissatisfiedly: "What's so funny, it's just my entertainment spirit, Rickdas also has a women's backpack, do you dare to use it?"

Zhang Rixuan shook his head and didn't dare, took out a scarf from the bag and looked at it, seemed to like it very much, and said to me: "It's beautiful!"

"That's right, my mom is the best at weaving things in her life!"

Zhang Rixuan nodded, and then put the scarf into his handbag, but he was not in a hurry to leave, his expression was a little more relaxed than just now, holding his chin and looking at the world outside the floor-to-ceiling window that was drenched in rain but was lit by neon.

I was also reluctant to leave, so I followed Zhang Rixuan to look out the window, and saw the neon lights as a piece of prosperity in the prosperous world, and then reflected myself so depressed.

At about 9 p.m., Zhang Rixuan and I said goodbye at the coffee shop, and she drove towards the old house in the light and shadow of the city, while I walked through the autumn rain to avoid the fallen leaves and walk towards the newly rented apartment.

......

After the night, the sky was no longer cloudy, it was a sunny morning, and although I had been sleepless all night listening to the sound of rain last night, I got up early in the morning.

On the morning after the rainy night, when the sun seemed to have a cold smell and the wind howled to blow the fallen leaves on the ground, I bought a bag of soy milk and a few steamed dumplings at the breakfast shop downstairs and ate them as I walked.

I threw the finished bag into the garbage bin and looked up to find that there were so many pedestrians hurrying by, and I seemed to be stationary, and then had no connection with the city.

Enduring the cold of the wind, I stood alone for a long time, and finally took out the letter that was about to be addressed to Liu Ao from my pocket, and a kind of helplessness at the fork in the road of life once again permeated my heart.

I have completed this promotion plan yesterday, no matter what the final implementation result is, but I have done my best to this plan, and it can be regarded as the final explanation to Liu Ao.

When I came to the company, it was almost nine o'clock, and after typing the card as usual, I came to the office where I had worked for nearly three years, and sat in the office with my own imprint, my brain was empty, just waiting for Liu Ao to come to the company, and then find a suitable time to hand him the resignation letter.

After a while, Li Yang also came to the company, he put down his briefcase, his face was radiant, and he seemed to be in a good mood, but his appearance filled me with a sense of guilt, but I was helpless, I did it or not, I did it, for Li Yang and Liu Ao, I can only say sorry.

Li Yang beckoned me to go to the rest room to make coffee, I nodded and picked up the cup and followed him to the rest room.

The two of them each made a cup of coffee and found a corner to chat.

Li Yang put the coffee cup on the windowsill and patted me on the shoulder, and said excitedly but in a low voice: "Jiaming, reliable news, after the end of this promotional activity, we will receive a notice of appointment, I will serve as the deputy manager of the planning department, and you will take my place as the leader of the planning and copywriting team......!" Life is going to get better and better, isn't it, Jiaming?"

I felt sad in my heart, and I didn't know how to respond, so I smiled bitterly for a long time: "Maybe." ”

"Why are you so calm? aren't you excited at all?"

"I'm indifferent to fame and fortune, and then I show how much of a philistine you kid is!" I made a bitter joke with Li Yang, in fact, I am not indifferent to fame and fortune, if I can really become the leader of the planning and copywriting team, I must be excited, but now I am ready to hand over my resignation to Liu Ao, what excitement is there to talk about.

While talking, Liu Ao's female assistant found me and Li Yang and said that Liu Ao asked us to go to the manager's office.

Li Yang said that he would go immediately, but I had a bad premonition in my heart, maybe Zhang Rixuan had used the time of the past few days to dismantle Zhang De's conspiracy, and under the chain reaction, Liu Ao's plan may have also failed.

......

Li Yang and I immediately went to Liu Ao's manager's office, and Liu Ao, who was sitting on the office chair, rarely lit a cigarette for himself, and his face was very ugly.

Li Yang was puzzled, and I already knew what was going to happen next
