Chapter VIII

The next day, Lin Xiaojiao arrived at the company early, and ten minutes before Chen Dan came to work, he put hot coffee and brown sugar water on her desk.

Xiao Fei sat listlessly in the chair, his face was tired after a hangover, and he looked in the direction of Lin Xiaojiao without opening his eyes, and said, "Xiaojiao, I'm so hungry, can you go downstairs and buy me a ham sandwich, I don't have any strength at all." ”

Incidentally?

She obviously didn't want to go downstairs, what kind of convenience did she follow?

Even though I thought so in my heart, the words that came out became, "Why didn't you buy it when you first came up?"

has a mouth, or a good tone, and can't hear complaints and doubts at all.

"I didn't get enough sleep and forgot. Xiao Fei replied confidently, "I'll transfer the money to you later." ”

As soon as these words fell, Lin Xiaojiao only felt that there seemed to be nails on the stool, and she had already gotten up slightly, and at this time, Yang Cheng, a male colleague in his early thirties, also said: "Then bring me one by the way, my wife cooked porridge again in the morning, I was really tired of eating, I didn't eat at all, Xiaojiao, I want egg sandwiches." ”

Lin Xiaojiao glanced at the wall clock on the wall, there were only eight minutes left before the start of work, but it seemed that there was no way to get through her throat if she refused, the smile on the corner of her lips stiffened, and she responded as usual: "Okay." ”

So, Lin Xiaojiao, who hadn't yet sat hot on the chair, ran down quickly, and didn't know which way to go along with it, so he became an errand boy for his colleagues.

It's not the first time I've been dissatisfied, and it's not the first time I've compromised.

From the day Lin Xiaojiao became an intern, no matter how early she came to the company, what she had was a 'busy morning', where colleagues were either chatting or stepping on points or waking up and dozing off, only she was always 'by the way' to do this and that.

Some words of refusal, it seems that if you don't say it the first time, you won't be able to say it later.

---

Today is Friday, and the day after tomorrow will be off, plus last night's party, everyone's mood at work is not high, and when Chen Dan's eyes didn't come, many people were gagging.

Except for Lin Xiaojiao, who was in order to keep up with the progress that had fallen behind before, he was conscientious and didn't even go to the toilet a few times.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Dan's voice suddenly sounded in the quiet office, "Lili, come here." ”

Lili, who was secretly looking in the mirror a moment ago to check if her makeup was intact, trembled suddenly, "Okay, come over right away." After speaking, he turned his back to Chen Dan and faced Lin Xiaojiao next door and complained silently: "It's miserable, I feel like I'm going to be scolded." ”

Sure enough, when Lili stood in front of Chen Dan's desk, Chen Dan didn't even look up at her, and said coldly: "The character drawings you are responsible for have all been redone." ”

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere of the entire office instantly condensed.

Redoing all meant rejecting it all, Lili's eyes were red, and she asked aggrieved and unwillingly, "Why......?"

Chen Dan turned the computer's display screen, and on the screen was Lili's character drawing, with red marks everywhere, "These are the reasons." ”

Lili leaned over, and her eyes were densely covered with red letters.

"I'll send you an email, and you can receive it. Chen Dan moved the display screen back to its place, and his tone was not half soft, "Send it to my mailbox before Monday." ”

"Monday?" Lili repeated in disbelief, euphemistically, "Sister Dan, will it be too rushed......?"

"I give you time, will Party A give us time?"

“……”

"Still have questions?"

Lili shook her head and hurriedly returned to her position, and the group of colleagues without Chen Dan built on the computer screen immediately crackled and popped up.

Xiao Fei: My old swan, the big devil went to dinner with us last night, why is he still so angry today?

Wu Cheng: I'm afraid she's going to enter menopause early, right? It's Friday today, and it's impossible to hand it in before Monday.

……

……

The group was full of sympathy to Lili and then took the opportunity to complain about Chen Dan's speech, and the news was one after another, so lively.

Lili: Yes, I'm really miserable, do you have time for .jpg the weekend?

As soon as Lili's message with a hint of asking for help was sent, the group immediately fell silent, not to mention words, not a single emoji reply.

Lily:???

Lily:!!!

After angrily knocking down these symbols, Lili couldn't help but look around at the people in the office, and the people who had just said sympathy for her were all sitting on the keyboard, as if they were too busy.

Lili rolled her eyes, picked up the words at the table and stuffed them into her mouth, so Lin Xiaojiao, who was sitting next to her, clearly heard Mei's voice: "She can't go to the next city with her boyfriend on the weekend." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lin Xiaojiao received a message from Lili's private chat: Xiaojiao, what are your arrangements for the weekend?

Lin Xiaojiao's hand dangled on the keyboard, and after a while, it seemed to be a habit, and she tapped and said: If you don't dislike it, I can help you draw.

Lili: Xiaojiao, you are so good! In this case, it will trouble you, I will send you Sister Dan's revision opinions for me, you remember to give it to me on Sunday night!

Lin Xiaojiao looked at the message on the computer screen for a moment, and then sent a well-behaved nodding expression.

Lili, who was sitting next door, thought of having a sweet weekend with her boyfriend again, and had long forgotten the grievances of being reprimanded by Chen Dan, took the words on the table and handed it to Lin Xiaojiao, and lowered her voice again: "Thank you, Xiaojiao, I will invite you to dinner another day." ”

From childhood to adulthood, Lin Xiaojiao has been promising the 'help' offered by others, and he will also receive a lot of 'another day', but these 'another day' have never come.

In the past, when she couldn't hear the food talking, she couldn't accurately guess what others were thinking, so she would only wait until others took the initiative to ask her, but now she can hear it, and it seems that the final result has not changed, but from waiting for others to ask for it to becoming her taking the initiative.

Lin Xiaojiao smiled lightly and replied good-naturedly: "You're welcome." ”

Anyway, she doesn't have any friends in City A, and she stays at home on weekends, so there's nothing wrong with using it for work, and she has just turned positive, so it's good to exercise her work ability.

Growing up so big, one of the most introverted and silent Lin Xiaojiao's skills is probably to talk to himself and comfort himself.

So after work that day, Lin Xiaojiao first went to the supermarket to stock up on some light and fast ingredients, and was ready to change the map at home, and fought hard at two o'clock in the morning that night.

Unexpectedly, when she woke up the next day, the community she rented was out of power.

Lin Xiaojiao worked hard all morning, checking the electricity meter and charging the electricity card, and then confirmed that it was not the electricity bill that was owed, but the fault of the entire community line, which was being repaired.

"Then how long will it take to fix it?" Lin Xiaojiao asked politely.

The person from the property replied: "It's not clear, maybe it will be fine in the afternoon, or it may have to wait until the evening, what problems are still being repaired." ”

"It's going to take so long...... "So how does she draw?"

The person on the other end of the phone thought that Lin Xiaojiao was complaining, and replied unhappily: "It's not that the power is going to be cut off on purpose, it's already being repaired, understand more, and it's the weekend, don't you young people just happen to go outside to play, won't you call when you come back after playing?"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaojiao let out a long sigh, the residual power of the computer can last for two hours, she will wait and see.

After a simple wash, Lin Xiaojiao endured fear in the laughter of bread and finished eating the bread, tied up his hair casually, and started to work on the progress of last night.

Two hours later, the computer popped up a 'low battery' prompt, and there was still no call from the community.

It seems that I can only find a café nearby for a day.

Thinking like this, Lin Xiaojiao stuffed the computer and hand-drawn tablet into a big canvas bag, and went out wearing wide short sleeves and jeans.

Later, Lin Xiaojiao thought that if she could turn back time, she would definitely not go to the coffee shop today, so that she would not meet that man again.

Oh no, the fundamental reason should be that she has to control her hands and can't offer to help Lili, so that even if there is a power outage, she can stay at home and be a salted fish.

But fate is so wonderful.

And it's impossible to turn back time.

Lin Xiaojiao's hair was messy and he looked unkempt, and he met the man again in the café.
