XIV. On the go

In the evening, Guan Qing received a call from Hao Jie from the United States, and asked how Xiaobei was.

Guan Qing said very dissatisfied, "Why don't you ask me how I am first, I am not as good as a cat in your mind?"

Hao Jie said, "If Xiaobei can call, I will definitely be the first to greet you first." ”

Guan Qing was not angry, "He is living a nourishing life." ”

"The mood is not right, do you need me to give you psychological counseling?"

"Thanks, Ph.D. in psychology, I'm fine now. ”

"Don't praise me so much, I'll be proud, I won't send me a photo for so long, has Xiaobei gained weight?"

"I think you're in the wrong major. ”

Hao Jie: "?"

"You should study veterinarians so that you can better serve your cat. ”

The person on the other end of the line laughed, "You're not going to be jealous of a cat, are you?"

Guan Qing was too lazy to continue the topic.

Hao Jie chatted a few words about her life in the United States, and then asked Guan Qing how she was doing.

Guan Qing talked about the recent recruitment, focusing on Han Tian, of course, she didn't forget to add some adjectives that were not very beautiful, and finally said, "I have already thought about it, and as soon as the two-month probationary period is over, I will take the initiative to resign." ”

"You won't really be serious with that Han Tian, will you?"

"He thinks that only he can fire other people's squid, and I can fire him too. ”

Guan Qing was still a little indignant when she remembered today's conversation with Han Tian, she was ruthless at that time, and when she could prove her strength one day, Han Tian just wanted to keep her, and she would never look back.

"What if you don't want to leave in a month or two?"

Guan Qing scoffed, "That's impossible." ”

"Life is full of accidentsβ€”"

"Who the hell are you targeting?"

"Well, there is no grass anywhere in the world, no matter what you decide, I support you. ”

That's pretty much it.

β€”β€”

Two days later, Guan Qing and Tan Yaxin took a long-distance bus to H City together to participate in a week-long newcomer training.

H City is home to the headquarters of Sound Advertising Company, about a four-hour drive from W City.

This city has left good memories for Guan Qing, as a beautiful tourist and leisure city, every winter and summer vacation, will attract a large number of students to come to play.

At that time, Guan Qing and Hao Jie also came together, traveling with friends, where to go is not the most important thing, the important thing is to enjoy the free and easy leisure, and the unfettered casualness when being with friends.

Guan Qing and her sisters once left footprints on the ten-mile causeway that carries countless historical memories, and also took pictures under the tower with the romantic legend of Xu Xian and the White Lady.

When I got tired of walking, I went to the bar room and sat and chatted.

Guan Qing still remembers that there was a stout old locust tree at the entrance of the bar they went to, with its thick branches and leaves stretching vigorously in all directions, and the shade of the tree covered half of the roof, hanging down to the terrace on the roof, and the name of the bar was Huai Nian.

It was the most pleasant time in the afternoon, there was no one in the bar, Guan Qing and Hao Jie and another girl sat at the round table by the window, talking about their dreams far or near.

They are not good at drinking, but after a cocktail goes down, they are a little unscrupulous.

The girl held a wine glass and said sadly, "Guan Qing, anyway, you don't have to worry, you look so beautiful, in this era of the supremacy of appearance, there will be companies asking you wherever you go, it's really not good, find a rich man to marry, marry and teach children after marriage, just come out and make a bubble if you have nothing to do, drink coffee or something, pass the time, and live a comfortable life." ”

Hao Jie said, "Look at your ambition, I haven't found a boyfriend yet, I already want to marry a wife, husband and children, if I only revolve around a man and a child in the second half of my life, I have to go crazy." ”

"Your family conditions are good, of course, you don't have to work hard yourself, just give you two suites, even if you are a charter wife, you can have no worries for a lifetime. ”

Hao Jie said, "They are now looking forward to me every day when I graduate and go back to help run the farm, so I don't take the road they arranged for me, I have already thought about it, after graduating from college, I will go to work for two years, and when I save enough money, I will go abroad to study social psychology." ”

"Classmate Hao, be realistic, you are twenty-four this year, and when you return to China after completing your studies, you will be about to run for three, and you will miss the best age, do you think you can still find a high-quality man? Besides, girls have such a high degree of education, who dares to marry you, I didn't see the "Dream of Red Mansions" said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, Lin Daiyu read more books, so she was sad all day long, sad autumn and spring, and died at a young age. ”

The girl's words undoubtedly aroused public outrage, and Guan Qing and Hao Jie had to come up and pinch her, "Why do you talk to the boys, are you a member of our female compatriots?"

"Don't distort the classics, Mr. Cao Xueqin's original intention is not like this. ”

"I don't have the strength to change my fate by getting married, but I don't know how I died in the end, Lin Daiyu is the best example. ”

The girl begged for mercy for the last time.

Hao Jie sat back on the sofa, brushed her hair and said, "I didn't go to school to find a married man, my goal is to sleep with handsome guys all over the world when I have the strength." ”

Schoolgirl is going to squirt.

Guan Qing sighed leisurely, "The era of feminism is finally coming-"

The noisy scene still lingers in Guan Qing's mind.

It is the graduation season of the last year of college, everyone will step into the society in the near future, in the turning period of life, even the youth itself is in a restless commotion, what kind of road to choose next, for every girl is very confused.

After the noise, everyone quieted down and watched the sunlight shine through the densely trimmed branches and leaves, projecting onto the retro and worn coffee-colored floor, making the otherwise quiet bar room a little more restrained and warm.

Guan Qing squinted at the huge buildings in the distance, and began to look forward to the work and life she was about to start.

Perhaps, one afternoon many years later, I will stand in an office in a high-rise building, with the wide floor-to-ceiling windows in front of me, and after experiencing all the situations in the world, I will re-examine the city with a completely different mood from now.

And she hopes that day will come sooner.

β€”β€”

Guan Qing sat in the car, reminiscing about the past, she pressed her back against the back of the seat, trying to make herself as comfortable as possible, and if she could, she could take a nap.

The four-hour journey is not so quick to pass away just by reminiscing about the past.

Tan Yaxin, who was sitting next to Guan Qing, was holding a bottle of nail polish and carefully painting her fingers red.

Tan Yaxin is painted very carefully, as if he is carrying out a meticulous artistic creation.

There was a car in front of it that changed lanes without warning, and the driver braked urgently to avoid the vehicle.

The bus was stunned, Tan Yaxin's hand slid out of control, and nail polish was smeared on his fingers.

Tan Yaxin took out a tissue and wiped her fingers, and said hatefully, "It's all damn nail technicians, they originally said that they would help me get my nails done yesterday, but she canceled her appointment for some time, how can I meet people now?"

Tan Yaxin raised her hand and looked at her fingernails with different shades of resentment.

Guan Qing felt that she was making a big fuss and said, "We're going to participate in training, not an interview, so we don't have to be exhaustive." ”

"I heard that the senior consultant and regional manager of the head office are training for us, but it is not something that we can see if we usually want to see, maybe we have worked hard for more than ten years, and we can't sit in that position, this is an opportunity to leave a good impression on them, of course, we must dress up carefully. ”

Guan Qing touched her cheeks, and her skin, which had only applied a little moisturizing cream, was smooth to the touch.

She hasn't used makeup since her face was dazzled by the rain during her last interview.

It took Tan Yaxin nearly an hour to paint her nails to a very unsatisfactory effect.

Tan Yaxin took out the makeup mirror again, ready to touch up her makeup, suddenly screamed, stroked her forehead with her hand, and said in pain, "Oh my God, I forgot to bring lipstick." ”
