Chapter 11: Midnight Theater
"Sister, are you coming back, are you working overtime again today?" I opened the door.
"En......" my sister answered absentmindedly, changed into slippers and walked directly to her room upstairs.
"Have you eaten?"
"I've eaten it, Mom. ”......
"My sister seems to be quite tired today. I muttered to myself and looked at the clock in the hallway, half-past eight. Oops, the 4th Old Silk Road Cup Model Contest began, I hurriedly rushed in the direction of the TV, blaming my mother, saying that only one TV is allowed in the living room at home, saying that watching too much TV will affect our work and study. During the run, I caught a glimpse of another figure rushing towards the remote control with the same purpose as me, it was my sister, she must be watching those boring Korean dramas again, what kind of love hotel or something.
Eventually, I grabbed the upper body of the remote control, and my sister choked the lower body of the remote control.
"Give it to me!"
"I grabbed it first!"
"Who can prove that it was me first. ”......
After arguing for a long time without any result, we decided to flip a coin.
"The national emblem or the number?" I asked my little sister with a piece of money in my hand.
"Numbers! Throw high, or I won't admit it. ”......
As we watched the coins holding our hope slowly fall from the sky onto the carpet, my little sister and I both held our breath and stepped forward......
"Yay! National Emblem!!Long live the !!" The cheers came from me, I grabbed the remote control, couldn't wait to turn it on, and pressed it to the platform I wanted to see......
“...... Ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of the swimsuit display, please continue to watch the evening dress display after the advertisement......"
"No...... I was stunned, and I turned to thrash my brother......
I borrowed a TV newspaper from a neighbor's house with a glimmer of hope, and I looked at it carefully, but I couldn't find it, but it wasn't replayed, right......? Suddenly, an inconspicuous line of small words caught my attention: "Midnight Theater, starring the famous star Crispy Navel - "The Dancing Girl Turns Back and Doesn't Change"!
"Wow......" I sneaked a peek at the broadcast time, it's half past twelve tonight, haha......!
When I went to bed, I deliberately set the alarm clock to 12:20 and then got under the covers...... I wake up every half hour: why haven't I arrived yet!
"Bell ......" I quickly pressed the alarm clock, ha!
I tiptoed out of the room to the living room, the curtains swayed in the breeze, the faint moonlight shone in, I turned my eyes green, I could see where the remote control was, turned on the TV, and turned the volume down to low......
The seven blood-red characters at the beginning of the film: The dancing girl does not change her spirit! Then there is the synopsis: This film is adapted from a true story, a beautiful working girl from the countryside had to embark on the road of escort girls in order to make a living, until one day, she met a man, a man who made her heart move, and the man did not dislike her, and finally in order to pursue true love, she gave up the luxurious life of being drunk and golden, and resolutely returned to the countryside with the man that no one recognized her, and since then she has lived a poor but satisfied life, and gave birth to a chubby boy for nothing......
I also made up such a plot, but fortunately, this kind of film is ...... Well, why do I think there's a figure in the window, it can't be a thief?
I had to ditch the TV for a while, find a rolling pin behind the kitchen door, and creep to the window...... The shadow was gone, and through the window, I saw a man standing on the balcony - it was my sister!
"Sister, you don't sleep so late, you have insomnia?" I came to the balcony.
"Ah......h
"Thinking about something so fascinating, I was actually scared by me. ”
"Oh...... Not...... It's nothing ......," my sister's panicked tone couldn't hide from me.
"You're crying......" I saw my sister's beautiful face flickering in the moonlight, which was caused by tears.
My sister suddenly threw herself on my shoulder and let out a cry of pain.
I was at a loss for a moment. "Have you been wronged in any way?"
"......" my sister sobbed, "It turns out that there are really a lot of troubles in being a human being......"
"How...... Why did you suddenly remember to say this?" I had a hunch that things weren't easy.
"He's drunk today......"
"Who?" I could already guess it was the guy when he said it, my sister's boss.
"But it doesn't seem to be drunk......"
"Are you drunk or not?"
"He kissed me......"
"Did you do it of your own free will?"
"I don't even know what's going on, so I ......"
"It turned out to be a sneak attack, that guy is amazing, hehe......"
"You're still laughing!"
"What does it matter, it's just a touch of the lips, not even the tongue. ”
"But I always thought he was a very upright person, but I didn't expect ......"
"Actually, it's normal, it's not a big deal for a handsome twenty-seven-year-old man to kiss a twenty-four-year-old beautiful woman, as long as you have a good sense of proportion, what can be done and what can't be done. We're all adults, and we're not monks and nuns in the temple......"
"But I always think he did this for some reason......
"My sister actually likes your boss, right?"
"You...... What are you talking about......"
"It's not love, but sister, you do have a crush on that guy. ”
“......”
"I remember several times when other companies offered you a lot more salary than here, but you refused, and these things have been hidden from your boss, not for him, is it really for professional ethics?"
"I think he's pretty good, but I'm actually confused......," my sister paused, "You say, can foxes and people really be like that?"
"Do you love each other like that?" I don't know, "but if you want me to say, if someone really loves someone, they won't leave even if they find out that they are fairies one day." ”
"I'm going to resign tomorrow. ”
"Is this your heart's decision?" I was not surprised in the slightest.
"I can't see him anymore, you can give him the letter of resignation for me. ”
"No problem, if you really think so. "I said cheerfully.
There was a sound of flushing in the toilet, and then my mother screamed: "Who is watching such a shameless show!!"
Oh no, I forgot to turn off the TV! It's over, who else could it be? I'm the only one at home......
The next morning, in my sister's company.
Zheng Qing walked out of the office: "Hu Xin, I want a ...... Oh......" he patted his head.
"Boss, you have called Hu Xin's name for the fourth time today, and you said early in the morning that she didn't come to work. ”
"Oh...... Sorry, make me a cup of coffee and bring it in. ”
"Yes, boss!" ......
in the office.
"Boss, your coffee. ”
"Oh, thanks. ”
"There was a man outside the door who did not make an appointment, he said that he was Hu Xin's younger brother and came to deliver the resignation letter for Hu Xin. ”
"Is that ......" Zheng Qing was silent for a moment, "please let him in." ”
After the secretary went out, Zheng Qinglu took a sip of coffee and frowned.
"Hello!" I strode in.
"Oh, hello, please take a seat. ”
"No, I handed my resignation letter for my sister and left. I said it deliberately.
"That...... Can you talk for a while?"
"What's the matter? It can't be too long. ”
"You...... Is my sister okay?"
"Is it okay to lose your job? Not because you made a mistake. I said it on purpose.
"......," he lowered his head slightly, and for a moment, took a check from the drawer, "give it to your sister." ”
I took it and looked at it, "Sixty thousand!" I swallowed and returned the check, "I've only been working for twenty days this month, so I don't have that much money." ”
"You just give it to your sister, just say it's not good for me, please accept this money. ”
"What's wrong with you?" I asked.
"Huh?" he obviously didn't expect me to do this, "Oh, it's nothing. ”
"Are you a man?" I said again deliberately aloud.
"What?"
"My sister said, if you want to dismiss her, please explain the reason directly, don't beat around the bush like this. ”
"Your sister ......"
"My sister said she knew what she did last night wasn't your intention. ”
"She told you everything?"
"Anyway, she also worked as your secretary for a year, and she still knows a little bit about your personality. ”
"It's been a year? yes, we've known each other for a year......" Zheng Qing sighed, "Maybe you don't believe it, I still remember the scene when she came to the interview...... "He lit a cigarette and traced his memories along the smoke......
Really, I also smoke, and I don't pay for it, but it's also Chinese.
“...... I remember that when the company recruited 10 secretarial staff and a general manager secretary, 300 people signed up, and 50 of them were finally qualified for interviews after passing the preliminary examination. On that day, I deliberately dressed up as an ordinary employee and walked past the waiting area, where some people were memorizing questions that might be asked during the interview, and some people were touching up their makeup...... Then I found a different girl among them, not only because she was beautiful, different from others, she didn't wear makeup, she sat there quietly reading a book, I looked closer, and found that it was actually a joke book, and from time to time a person smiled faintly, I couldn't see any nervousness, and what impressed me even more was that she actually wore a pair of sneakers, pink very chic sneakers, very clean, it was a new purchase, and the other girls were all very expensive high heels, I thought, what a strange girl. After that, I instructed the grandmother who mopped the floor to deliberately knock over a bucket of dirty water at the interview girl, and many girls were scolding the grandmother, only the girl helped the grandmother to lift the bucket, and asked the grandmother if there was anything wrong, in fact, the dirt on other people's leather shoes can be wiped off, and her sneakers are no longer clean, and at that time I basically had a secretary candidate in my heart. ”
"My sister wore sneakers on the day of the interview, and I remember that I didn't know who stole them because they were on the balcony. ”
"That's right, that girl is your sister. Zheng Qing smiled, "What a nice girl, really." ”
"Listen to your tone, it's like you're in love with my sister. I said again intentionally and unintentionally.
"Like it?" Zheng Qing's face showed a look of sudden realization.
