041 Breathe hard and feel free
On the first day of promotion, I spent the whole day in a state of apprehension. The feeling of walking on thin ice is something I've never experienced before. Although nothing happened on this day, and there was no need for my new official to "release" one fire after another, everything was not particularly different from before.
I don't have to bike to work anymore, and I live just a few steps away from the office. After getting off work, I went downstairs, I didn't think that Lin Xi was actually standing downstairs, I was surprised, and then met her smile.
All the unpleasantness seems to be "blown" away by the smiles on each other's faces.
I said, "Lin Xi, are you waiting for someone here?"
She greeted me, naturally took my hand, and said, "Sister Shuhua, wait for you." It's not good for me in the morning, and I want to treat you to dinner in the evening and apologize to you. Moreover, I called Brother Monkey as well. You can't help but skip this meal, otherwise I really won't have the face to do things under you in the future. ”
Lin Xi's words were not leaky, and as soon as she finished speaking, Brother Monkey rushed out of the entrance of the building and shouted loudly: "Yo, it's hard to understand the friendship of your women, it's still a lot of trouble this morning, and it's going to be better now." ”
After saying that, he walked over and took my hand with a big grin. I pinched him, and he pulled away in pain, then grinned at us.
Lin Xi took his words and said, "That's it, it's our sister's atmosphere, and the adults don't care about the villains." Sister, did you say yes?"
Lin Xi, this girl...... I smiled and said, "Of course, you're a freshman after all." I've always treated you like children. ”
After saying this, Lin Xi's face instantly darkened. I continued to walk quietly, and Brother Monkey said, "Come on, you can be a few years older than us, why don't I think it's old when you say you're old all the time." I'm starving, hey, I said, where are you going to invite us to dinner?"
Lin Xi said: "Just find a restaurant around here, it's up to you, I'm not very familiar with this place." ”
I said, "Then look for it." If you don't eat spicy, if you eat spicy, go to the Sichuan restaurant over there. I don't need you to invite you, I'll invite you, and this matter is settled. ”
Brother Monkey said, "What about you scolding me here? I'm a big man, of course I have to have a treat." You don't need to say anything, if anyone dares to pay at night, they won't see each other in the future. ”
Lin Xi smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I know that brother, you are the best." Sister, then I'll invite you next time, let's not fight today, there is a brother. ”
I smiled, I know Brother Monkey, he has always been so domineering that he can't help but say, what he says must be done, and I simply don't fight. We chatted all the way, walked into the Sichuan restaurant together, sat down, and ordered a few dishes.
I sat on one side alone, Brother Monkey sat opposite me, and after Lin Xi went to the bathroom, he sat directly next to Brother Monkey. The two of them began to frolic as they spoke, and their unbridled smiles rippled on their equally youthful faces, looking so harmonious and beautiful. I'm just sitting across from me, why do I feel like I'm so out of order?
I concealed my loss a little, lowered my head and flipped through my phone randomly, the food came up, Brother Monkey flicked my head with his hand, and then said, "Sister, don't look at it, let's eat." ”
I nodded, put my phone aside, and was just about to pick up my chopsticks, when he had already sandwiched a piece of tender sauerkraut fish fillet into my bowl, and said, "You see that you have lost weight recently, eat more meat, and make up for it." ”
I politely said "thank you", and he said to Lin Xi again: "Eat quickly, eat quickly, the sauerkraut fish here is very authentic." ”
Lin Xi pouted and said, "You guys eat, I don't like spicy food very much." ”
He said, "It's really tasteless. The dish is too boring without chili peppers, just like a woman without makeup. ”
Lin Xi had a quarrel with Brother Monkey again, and I was still worried in my heart, and my emotions were not very high. Brother Monkey's phone rang a few times in the middle, and I saw that the remarks displayed were "Little Kiss", which was called by Qianmo.
I said, "Either you go to accompany Qianmo early, don't be out of tune all day." ”
He said, "Well, I'm going to accompany her after dinner." ”
At the mention of Brother Monkey's girlfriend, Lin Xi's eyes dimmed, and Lin Xi said: "Hey, it's good to have a boyfriend, I don't know why I go after work every day." ”
Brother Monkey said casually: "Find one, isn't the company chasing you with a wave of men?"
Lin Xi pouted and said, "None of them are what I like." Hey, these days, it's really hard to find someone you like. Sister Shuhua, are you in love with your husband?"
I said lightly, "I'm getting divorced." ”
She sighed in surprise, a little embarrassed. Brother Monkey hurriedly said in a round game: "In these years, only single women have a way out." Come on, we celebrate the joy of being single. ”
After saying that, he raised the Sprite in the glass, and we all raised it, and then toasted together. Brother Monkey's phone rang again, this time it seemed that Qianmo was angry, and there was a faint sound of sobbing from the phone. Seeing this, we hastily ended the meal.
Lin Xi and Brother Monkey took a taxi and left, I waved goodbye to them and walked home alone.
On the way home, the dim street lamp stretched my back long, and I walked along the straight line on the road, thinking that no matter how long the night was, the good times that belonged to me would definitely come.
In the park, the aunts were dancing in the square, the young mothers were pushing their children to wander around the neighborhood, a young couple walked in front of me with a smile, and the girl suddenly spoiled the boy and carried her on his back......
The world is so beautiful even though it's night. But for some reason, my tears fell drop by drop. I laughed like a fool at the flow, and I felt that at least I wasn't afraid of the unknown anyway......
When I think of my face and the place where I have lived for so long, my heart suddenly hurts......
Sometimes, only when you give it with all your heart can you know if it's worth spending a lifetime.
I opened the door, turned on the light, looked at the little bed, looked at the neat and clean environment, and I thought, my freedom, although it came so many years late, but after all, it came......
