2. Accidents
In the summer, the day dawned very early, and before six o'clock, the sun was already showing its face in the east, and the warm sun was shining through the window and on the dresser by the window, and in the mirror was a young face.
The white skin and moist lips are the age of youth, and there is no need for heavy makeup at all, youth itself is already very beautiful.
Out of basic etiquette, Guan Qing still decided to put on makeup, today is an important day, Guan Qing is going to an advertising agency for an interview. She applied some mascara and some rosy blush to her cheeks, and her skin had a very good underlay, just a thin layer to create a translucent feeling.
Feeling satisfied, Guan Qing turned around and went to the cabinet to find the clothes to wear today.
Guan Qing knows the importance of first impressions, and after a lot of careful picking, Guan Qing picked out a white narrow-shouldered tunic dress, with a slightly elastic and light fabric that wraps Guan Qing's well-proportioned and energetic body, dignified and generous, and a little cautious.
Guan Qing turned around repeatedly in front of the coat mirror, feeling very satisfied, as long as it is matched with a pair of shoes, it can be called perfect.
Guan Qing remembered the advertising slogan, temperament starts from the feet, and walks out of your glorious life. Who's to say it isn't, choosing the right pair of shoes to make a good impression on the interviewer may be the first step to a successful career path.
Guan Qing finally chose a pair of golden high-heeled sandals, with a slender heel, a concave and convex body, and a slender belt wrapped between the ankles, which added a lot of points to Guan Qing's image.
"Where can I find such cheap and versatile shoes? ”
Guan Qing was glad that she was lucky, and it was worth it even if it took her half a day to find such a pair of beautiful shoes on a certain treasure.
Guan Qing was quite satisfied with herself in the mirror, seeing that there were still forty minutes before the agreed time for the interview, Guan Qing walked out of the house, attracting a lot of attention along the way, and the crisp stepping sound of the high heels touching the ground made Guan Qing feel a lot more sure.
This is the only interview notice Guan Qing received recently, in the past two months, Guan Qing has submitted several cover letters, all of which have been lost, she lacks dazzling academic qualifications and qualifications, it is really difficult to find a company she likes, and she wants to seize today's opportunity.
It rained for several days, and the low-lying areas on the side of the road were full of rainwater, and the pavement, which was originally only slightly high, became large and small puddles, shining brightly in the sun.
Guan Qing raised her legs high, landed lightly, and carefully avoided the puddle. As I passed by a breakfast shop, I heard the weather forecast on the radio saying that there would be thundershowers today, with short-term gusts of seven to eight winds.
Guan Qing looked up at the sky, the sun had begun to become scorching, bright, people couldn't look at it directly, how could such weather be connected with thundershowers.
Guan Qing stood at the intersection and waved to stop the car, it was the morning rush hour for work, and several taxis passed in a row, all of which were fully loaded, but Guan Qing was not in a hurry, it was only a ten-minute drive from here to the prosperous Century Building where she was interviewing, and she had plenty of time to feel the beautiful sunshine of the city after the rain for more than half a month.
Guan Qing stopped a taxi fifteen minutes later, sat in the back seat, and looked at the almost half-bald back of the driver's head. She looked down at her sandals, the golden uppers reflecting a brilliant color in the dim light, constantly shimmering with the light and dark, making people a little dazzled.
With a screeching sound of brakes, the taxi stopped abruptly, and Guan Qing raised her head, "What's going on?"
The driver didn't look back and replied quite simply, "Traffic jam." ”
This happened every day in the city, and he was used to it to the point of numbness.
Guan Qing began to worry, "How far is it from the Peak Century Building?"
"1.5 km. ”
Guan Qing looked outside with a fluke mentality, the not spacious lane was quickly filled with dense vehicles, and the sound of horns one after another made her already a little nervous even more uneasy, "How long will this car be blocked." ”
"It's hard to say-"
Guan Qing was very dissatisfied with the driver's answer, "It's hard to say, but there must be an approximate time." ”
The driver's language and his hair volume are obviously on the same level, both small and crisp, "Ten minutes to an hour." ”
Guan Qing felt that she was about to collapse, this error was too big, she still had fifteen minutes left before the agreed time for the interview, and she didn't dare to take this risk. Fortunately, the 1.5-kilometer road is not too far, and if you are a little faster, you can walk it in 15 minutes.
"I'm going to get out of the car," Guan Qing threw down ten yuan to the front seat and opened the car door decisively.
At this time, Guan Qing found that the originally clear sky was already overcast, the wind carried everything that was blowing on the road unscrupulously, the originally quiet street trees on the side of the road also opened their teeth and claws, whipped and twisted, and the clothes and hair of pedestrians flew wildly as if out of control, and from time to time someone let out a low exclamation.
The weather changed like the face of a three-year-old.
It won't really be said by the weather forecast, Guan Qing muttered, it's rare to be accurate a few times, but it's still today.
Guan Qing squeezed through the narrow driveway and onto the sidewalk, joining the morning rush hour with the expressionless office workers.
Guan Qing looked at her watch, there were still thirteen minutes before the interview time at half past eight, if nothing else, she should be able to catch up.
This prosperous century building is the tallest building in W City, and it is also settled in some foreign offices and well-known local enterprises, Guan Qing watched this building with a metallic texture getting closer and closer to him, his heart began to beat faster, and his steps were no longer so sure, whether he could stand out in this interview and enter his ideal company, he could know in the next half an hour.
Guan Qing, who has always been confident, also began to lose confidence.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the dark clouds were pressing low on the buildings, and there seemed to be a devil hiding behind the clouds, eager to jump out and wreak havoc, and the pedestrians quickened their pace, trying to reach their destination before the rain fell.
A bright light broke through the sky, the thunderbolt had not yet been released, and the raindrops of beans had already sprayed out of the clouds and sprayed over the city, and then they could no longer be contained, and the thunderstorm and lightning worked together, and the city was completely plunged into a misty chaos.
Although Guan Qing had prayed hundreds of times in her heart, she was still a little short of her goal, and seeing that she was only five hundred meters away from the Century Dingsheng Building, the rain was still falling.
Guan Qing took a deep breath and decided to play out her speed in the sprint race and finish the final sprint before getting wet in the heavy rain.
Guan Qing rushed towards the entrance of the building at the maximum speed she could, and in the rain and fog, Guan Qing vaguely heard someone shouting, "Be careful, the car is ......"
A black Jaguar rushed past Guan Qing, and before Guan Qing could react, the wheels had already run over the puddle on the side of the road, and then set off a huge splash and sprinkled all over Guan Qing.
Guan Qing exclaimed, when she raised her head, the car had already driven a few meters away, but she still remembered the last few digits of the license plate number, 8898.
Guan Qing almost didn't even have time to curse, because as soon as she lifted her legs, she noticed the abnormality, and her shoes didn't move with her feet.
Guan Qing lowered her head, although the rain obstructed her vision, she still found that her shoelace was broken, and the shoelace that was originally long and wrapped around her ankle was broken.
It must have twisted his foot when he was in a hurry to dodge the car just now, and the slender shoelaces couldn't stand the pressure and broke, and the soft one hung down, like a dying earthworm.
The heavy rain poured down mercilessly, and when Guan Qing stumbled to the hall on the first floor of the Century Dingsheng Building with her shoes on, she was already soaked, and the rain dripped down her hair, neck, and clothes, and flowed a stream on the marble floor.
Guan Qing looked at her watch, there were still two minutes before half past eight, and she didn't have time to tidy herself up, so she went directly into the elevator and pressed the button on the 11th floor.
Guan Qing took advantage of the precious time from the first floor to the eleventh floor, and in the surprised looks of the two passers-by, wrung out her hair, took out the paper towel that was still dry in her purse, and wiped her face.
When Guan Qing stepped out of the elevator and came to the 11th-floor Sound Advertising Media Company, the hour hand on her watch pointed to half past eight.
Although the image is a little worse, as long as you are not late, there is still hope for everything, after all, this rain came too suddenly, and it was an accident for everyone.
Guan Qing brushed her hair, pulled the skirt that was clinging to her body, and heard a mechanical and indifferent female voice in the hall shouting, "Has Guan Qing arrived?"
"It's here, it's here. Guan Qing hurriedly pushed open the door and entered, the bright lights in the hall and the marble floor that reflected the human shape were particularly dazzling at the moment, like a huge spotlight, deliberately to expose Guan Qing's embarrassment.
