Chen Yu changed his clothes, hurried to the front desk and sat down, exhaled, his face was flushed, and his forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat.

Lin Duo observed for a while, this girl seemed to be younger than her, lively, vibrant, and had a playful temperament. She turned her face and smiled at Lin Duo and said, "Hello, Lin Duo, my name is Chen Yu." ”

Lin Duo was surprised that she knew her name, but they didn't know each other before.

Chen Yu guessed Lin Duo's thoughts, so he pointed to the badge on her chest, Lin Duo looked down and understood, it turned out that the name was printed on his badge.

"When I see you, I'm relieved. Chen Yu said.

"Why do you say that?" Lin Duo asked.

"Because before you came, I was the only one here, and I hadn't rested for a month. Chen Yu said.

"I haven't had a month off? It seems that the company really can't recruit people. Lin Duo said.

Chen Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's the case, few girls are willing to do this kind of boring work. ”

"However, there are still a lot of people out there who are worried about work, and there is no one to hire here, which is really a bit contradictory. Lin Duo said.

Chen Yu opened the registration book, picked up the pen and wrote, and said as he wrote: "Actually, there are people coming for interviews every day, and there are many people, but our director will not want them, so there are few people in our department, and it is almost a luxury to even take a vacation." ”

"Director?" Lin Duo thought of Li Yanran, so he said, "Why?"

After Chen Yu finished registering, he put the pen aside, turned to look at Lin Duo and said with a smile: "Because of the image problem." ”

Lin Duo was a little unconvinced, and said: "Is the image so important? Besides, it is impossible for every girl who comes to the interview to be not good-looking, right?"

"That's not it, on the contrary, the girls who come to the interview have a good image, body appearance, conversation etiquette, and even some can go to film. But the director only talked to each other once, and then never contacted them again. ”

"I don't understand why she knows that the department is short of people, but the applicant has a good image, but she still doesn't want it, it's really strange. Lin Duo said.

Chen Yu said: "There is nothing strange about this, all the interviewers have to go through the interview of the supervisor first, and you can also see that our supervisor is not sad at this level." It's just that after the supervisor has passed this level, he still has to go through the interview of the director. That level was more difficult. ”

"It's because the director is going to make things difficult for people, right? But I don't think she's like that. Lin Duo said.

"That's not going to happen, the director is still very good, cares about his subordinates, but is a little picky, so for so long, there is always no one she thinks is suitable. Chen Yu said.

"If you are too picky about employing people, it is really difficult to find the right person. Lin Duo said that she was a little glad that she was lucky.

"Actually, age, image, education, conversation etiquette, these are not important in her eyes, these will be understood after you have been in contact with her for a long time in the future. Chen Yu said.

Lin Duo thought for a while and said, "The interviewer's character is really important to her, right?"

Chen Yu sneered and laughed, looked at his head from afar, and said: "Character? is a word that is often heard, but few people do it properly. These are not important, besides, it is difficult to see a person's true character in an interview. ”

"Well, I really don't understand, if character can't be a selection condition. Lin Duo said.

"It's the feeling. Chen Yu said.

"Feelings, you mean, the director is choosing by feeling?" Lin Duo said.

It's puzzling, but that's exactly what she did. Now you and I, who can sit here and go to work, are the lucky ones under her sick feeling. Chen Yu said, his expression was like a smile.

"It's the first time I've heard that interviewers select talent based on feelings. Lin Duo said.

"Yes, although I also feel strange, but she almost everything is decided by that sick feeling, and when I meet such an interviewer, I can only let her fate. Chen Yu said.

Lin Duo opened the registration book, which was densely packed with the names and phone numbers of visitors, and said: "Such a simple job, it has lost its freshness before it has been done, it seems that Bai Yang is right, this job is indeed not suitable for young people, I am a little disgusted now, although I know that I need this job very much." ”

Chen Yu said: "Maybe one day, I don't want to work like this anymore, this kind of life will torture me crazy." However, like you, I need this job with a steady income. ”

The two of them each smiled wryly and fell silent.

Time passed very slowly, and the two of them stayed in the company for a day, and finally looked forward to the time to get off work.

Chen Yu closed the registration book, exhaled, and said, "It's almost time to get off work, tell me how you feel about this day." ”

Lin Duo smiled bitterly and said, "What else do you want me to say, isn't my feeling your feeling, after sitting for a day, my waist is sore, sure enough, no one wants to do the job of the front desk, it turns out that sitting is also very tiring and tormenting." ”

"You've only been working for one day, I've been working here for more than half a year, and I feel like every day of my life is a waste of this kind of work. Only on the day of the paycheck will there be some bitter feelings. Chen Yu said.

"Stop whining, get off work, go home. Lin Duo said.

The two were separated at the gate of the company, Lin Duo walked through the traffic light, happened to meet the rush hour after work, the traffic blocked the road, she passed through the gap between the cars, passed many food stalls, although hungry, but not in the mood to eat, there seemed to be something in her heart that made her uncomfortable, turned around the snack street for a long time, and finally only bought a cup of porridge, held it in her hand, and walked towards home.

When he got home, Lin Duo opened the door and climbed into bed to lie down. She didn't want to move, she just wanted to rest quietly. Outside the window, night fell, the orange sky gradually turned blue-black, the sound of insects downstairs rustled, and a gust of wind blew in, mixed with the smell of scrambled eggs. It's all so familiar, yet so strange. I remember that a few days ago, she was still living at home, and every day at this time, the smell would waft in the house, and there would be four dishes and one soup on the table as usual, and her parents would sit opposite, smiling and eating, talking about the joys and troubles of the day. And now, a few days later, she was lying on this stiff bed, sniffing the familiar smell in the dreary and humid air, looking at her own shadow on the wall, and suddenly, she wanted to go home.

Yes, she really wants to go home, why does she have to work hard in this strange C city, coming here is just for a bite of food, if so, her hometown is enough to satisfy her little wish. Her little town is quiet, slow, and even the time seems to be a few hours more than this C city every day. After only one day of work, she already realized that this fast-paced life is like a huge cog on a machine, crushing everyone in the city.

After thinking about it, Lin Duo decided to stay here, although she knew that this city would not bring her the life she really wanted, she still wanted to stay in this C city for a while. However, for a while, how long would it be? She hadn't thought about it, and she didn't dare to think about it. She just wants to get something here that belongs or doesn't belong to her, as if this is how she will be willing, as if this way she will be satisfied.

But whoever stretches out his hand to beg from the devil, in exchange the devil will demand from her.

Lin Duo finished drinking the porridge and felt that his body had some strength, so he got up and walked out of the room, locked the door, and went downstairs.

The rush hour has passed, and the streets outside the community have begun to become wider and smoother. People who have had dinner are walking on the road and walking their dogs. Maybe at this time of the day, maybe here, you can see the scene of life in City C. Seeing this, Lin Duo's mood gradually improved, and she enjoyed the night view on the side of the road while walking. A dazzling array of jewelry stores, a group of children around an uncle selling cotton candy, shouting, jumping, a couple standing on the sidewalk, playing badminton, all of these evoke Lin Duo's memories. Unconsciously, she has walked a long way, and when she turns around, she finds that her community is no longer visible, although her memory is not very good, but she still knows that she turned left and right, turned a lot of corners, and now wants to return the same way, but she doesn't know how to go.

"Forget it, take a taxi home. She muttered to herself.

Lin Du walked into a supermarket, bought a bottle of water, and was surprised to see that the cashier turned out to be Chen Yu.

"Chen, Yu, is that you?" said Lin Duo incredulously.

Chen Yu raised his head, also a little surprised, but quickly calmed down, and said with a smile: "Are you taking a walk? It seems that you don't have the habit of going to bed early." ”

Lin Duo hadn't reacted from the surprise just now, he stepped forward to look at Chen Yu and said, "Chen Yu, why are you here?

Chen Yu said: "Go home, how can I be so idle, I have a hasty meal in the evening, and that's it." ”

Lin Duo looked around and said, "It turns out that you help the family take care of the store every day after work." ”

Chen Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "Where is it, this shop is not my family at all, I just work here part-time at night." ”

"Part-time?"

"Yes, I'll be working here part-time at night, working as a cashier and earning some money. Chen Yu said.

"I see, very self-motivated. Customer service work, I feel tired and tired after a day, but you still have a part-time job at night, will this be too tired?" Lin Duo asked, she suddenly felt a little distressed about Chen Yu.

Chen Yu said: "It's really a little tired, but it's okay, anyway, the cashier only sits to work, but he has to stay up until midnight to get off work." ”

"After a long time, will the body be unbearable, usually pay more attention to the body and supplement more nutrition. Lin Duo said.

Chen Yu yawned and said with tears in his eyes: "I don't get enough sleep every day, so I get up late every day, and I am always late for work during the day." By the way, do you live around here?"

"Well, oh no, it's not here, it's Crystal Blue. I came here on a walk, got lost, I knew I wouldn't have gone so far, and now I have to take a taxi to go back. Lin Duo said.

"Oh, Crystal Blue, I know, I've lived there for a while before, well, it's better to drive you there, the taxis in City C are notoriously expensive, and the drivers always find all kinds of reasons to take long detours and thus overcharge. Chen Yu said.

Lin Duo was a little embarrassed and said, "Thank you, but forget it, you are still on the night shift, it is inconvenient to leave like this, and it is not good for the boss to see it." ”

Chen Yu stood up with a smile and shouted at the shelf at the other end, "Uncle, can I send my friend home?" ”

At the other end of the shelf, an old man with white hair poked his head out to look at Lin Duo, and replied with a smile: "Go ahead, drive slowly on the road, don't run the red light." ”

"Okay, uncle, thank you. Chen Yu looked excited, walked out of the cash register, took Lin Duo's hand, and said, "Let's go, I'll send you home." ”

The two walked over to a white sedan, opened the door and sat inside. The car roared and drove off to the road.

Along the way, Lin Duo's heart was very curious, and she couldn't help but say: "This Chevrolet Cruze is very good-looking, a new car, not long after I bought it." ”

Chen Yu became happy when he heard this, and said: "Yes, I have always liked this car, and I saved up for a long time to buy it." ”

Lin Duo was a little impressed after hearing this, she didn't expect a little girl like Chen Yu, not long after graduating from college, to save money to buy a car, it seems that hard work can realize her dream. So he said: "You know, I always thought you were a little girl, I didn't expect that you are a very capable person, and you are also very self-motivated, seeing that you bought a car, I really admire you, in contrast, I am a lazy person, there is no goal, alas, as long as I get off work, I want to go home to rest, I want to play." No wonder my mother always said that when I grew up, I should find someone to marry so that my life could be stable. ”

Chen Yu couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and said: "My mother always says that when I grow up, I will find someone to marry, well, I don't think so, marrying someone else to be a virtuous helper, being a housewife, I always feel a little lost, it is better to be independent, and there will be some weight in talking at home in the future." By the way, do you have a boyfriend?"

"Yes. Lin Duo said.

"So, when are you going to get married?" asked Chen Yu.

"Marriage? I haven't thought about it yet. He, like me, is full of food and drink, so he doesn't want to do anything else, and he hasn't graduated from college yet. Lin Duo said.

"That's the case, boys still have to exercise outside for a few years before they have ideas, girls, it's best not to be like me, like tossing around, otherwise boys won't like it." Chen Yu said.

"I think you're very good, self-reliant, very self-motivated, very good, and bought yourself a car, I also want to learn from you, have a goal. Lin Duo said.

"Alas, I regret buying this car now. It was because I bought a car that my boyfriend broke up with me. Chen Yu said.

"Broke up, why is this happening?" Lin Duo felt incredible.

"What else can I do, I make a lot of money and have better ability than him, just because of this, I broke up. Chen Yu said.

Lin Duo was silent, she had heard of this kind of similar thing before.

"He said that since I made more money than he did, I had changed, I had become strong, I had become bossy, I had become not lovable at all, I had started to accuse him everywhere. However, what girl wants to see her boyfriend complain about life at home all day long, complain that work is not good, and finally quit his job and hide at home to play games on the Internet, give up on himself, and let the girl raise him. I accuse two sentences of being strong, my louder voice is domineering, and I don't want him to give up on himself is not cute. He just couldn't stand me like this, so he proposed to break up. Chen Yu said, a few tears sliding down his cheeks.

After Lin Duo heard this, he began to think about his boyfriend, will he be such a person in the future?

Chen Yu wiped his tears and said, "I'm sorry, Sister Lin, I infected you with negative emotions and made you hear so many negative things. ”。

Lin Duo took out a tissue and handed it to Chen Yu, and said softly: "He will regret it, forget about him." ”

Crystal Blue City in front of him, the car slowly stopped on the side of the road, Lin Duo pushed the door and got out of the car, thanked Chen Yu again, the car turned around, and disappeared into the night after a while. Lin Duo sighed and walked into the community.
