Chapter 30: The Christmas Fog
December, thick winter.
Winters in CD are overcast, especially in the morning, with occasional thick fog and visibility of no more than 20 meters. Whether it's a car or a bicycle, it's like walking through a flickering fairy tale world.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the whole city was covered in a thick fog.
Tian Tian sat on the No. 45 bus, blocked at the mouth of Yanshi, unable to move.
I vaguely saw that there seemed to be a traffic jam caused by a two-car rear-end collision in front, and the traffic police were conducting a diversion.
Ten minutes later, the vehicle began to loosen, slowly crawling forward, and then was blocked again by a red light at the intersection.
Tian Tian looked through the car window silently at the opposite side, and the building under construction on the opposite side seemed to be much taller. The building is at the crossroads and has been fenced off for a long time. Three months ago, the progress of the project was significantly accelerated, and now it has emerged several floors above the ground, and it is said that it is a star-rated hotel called "Galaxy Dynasty", which is very high-end, and the grade specifications are higher than that of Shudu Building. Next to a few dozen meters is the famous CD Hongqi shopping mall, behind the Hongqi shopping mall, there are three adjacent pieces of land to be surrounded, the old house is being demolished, it is said that one of them is an office building, the other will be a financial building, its height will exceed the Shudu Building, become the new first tallest building. They are all at the T-shaped intersection of Titu Street and Taisheng South Road, so it seems that Taisheng South Road will only become more and more prosperous in the future.
The car started suddenly, and with a sway, Tian Tian's head was slammed into the window glass, and she was in pain! She even had the urge to scold her mother in her heart. The car staggered forward through the intersection, this time without a hitch, turning into Admiral Street, stopping with another foot of the brakes at the Taisheng South intersection, and the doors opened.
The slightly obese conductor shouted listlessly, "Taisheng South Road has arrived, and those who go to Taisheng South Road, the Cultural Palace, and the Shudu Building, please get off here." ”
There are a lot of people who get off the train at this stop, all of them are nearby staff, and many of them have familiar faces, but everyone is just embarrassed to show a smile to each other, let alone introduce themselves to each other, which is the unique reserve between people.
Tian Tian was the last to get out of the car, anyway, it was still early today, and she was not in a hurry. Basically, at least fifteen days a month, she is the first to arrive at the store, because the key is on her, which makes her develop a good habit of waking up early.
Besides her, only Xiao Song and Xiao Na have the key.
There was a silver-gray car parked across the street, right next to the Light and Shadow Communication store.
Why did they come so early today? It was still such a big fog? Didn't they usually come at 10 o'clock? Could it be that something couldn't happen?
Tian Tian was puzzled, and a series of question marks popped up. She trotted through the street, and the door was open.
Through the gap in the blinds, she saw Xiao Song, Xiao Na in the reception room, and Yanzi. She hadn't seen a swallow for a long time, and she had only been here once since she came back from Wenzhou.
The three of them seemed to be discussing something------
Xiao Na saw Tian Tian, and then waved to Tian Tian and let her in.
Tian Tian entered the reception room and sat down beside Xiao Na.
"Tian Tian, we are waiting for you. Xiao Song, who was sitting opposite, said, "Two things, we're going to leave right away." ”
"Leaving again?" Tian Tian asked reflexively, thinking that it would be less than a month since he came back, where are you going?
"First of all, I discussed the company's business development with Xiao Na, because Time Communication has now begun to supply Y&D companies, and many secondary companies in prefectures and cities have also begun to place orders. This consumes a lot of Xiao Na's time, and her energy is limited. So at the retail level, we are responsible for expanding new stores, that is, we have to open at least 2 more stores within a year. Your task must train a few skilled people within two months, and one of them must be a store manager. If nothing else, another store will be opened after the Spring Festival. ”
"After the Spring Festival, there are only less than three months?" Tian Tian was taken aback, although Xiao Na had asked her this question last time.
"Do you know, during this time, there are three stores near the Y&D store that are being renovated, not far apart, and the Y&D store will be newly opened next week. ”
Tian Tian didn't speak, she stayed in the store every day, how could she find time to go out and see.
"I asked, the three stores that are being renovated are all doing communications, and one is also very big, and the owner's background is not known yet. According to this trend, sooner or later Taisheng South Road will be brought up by the communication industry, and maybe every family will be operating communication products in the future. Now it's just a BP machine, if the mobile phone comes out again, then it's still necessary! While the rent is not high now, we must occupy the position first. ”
"The second thing is that Swallow and I are going to BJ in the afternoon and flying to Europe in the evening, and it may take 20 days to come back. ”
"Europe?" Tian Tian even held his breath, thinking that this time he had run too far.
The swallow who was half leaning on Xiao Song's body was full of happy smiles, "Tian Tian, Brother Song and I went to get the certificate in the morning, and then started our honeymoon trip, we both want to go to Europe, Brother Song likes the thick cultural heritage over there, I like the churches and castles over there, we also have to take wedding dresses, and we will take many, many photos back------"
Honeymoon?
Tian Tian knew that this was an inevitable result, but he still didn't expect it to come so early. Her mind went blank for an instant, and she suddenly felt that her whole person had been hollowed out, as if hanging in mid-air.
"So, you're going to have to work hard again. Xiao Song smiled slightly apologetically.
"And I, Tian Tian, I have to go out for a week. Xiao Na continued, "I'm going to Guangzhou, Wu Ping is still a little struggling to be alone now, you have to go over and help her, go over every night to have a party, and then discuss the next day's work together." ”
"Wu Ping, there won't be a problem, right?" Tian Tian was pulled back to reality by Xiao Na and asked very carefully, she knew Wu Ping's character and would be stingy when it came to her own interests.
"I already communicated to Wu Ping last night. First, it's a work arrangement, and second, she's glad you can go back and help her, she still wants to grow quickly. Don't worry, although we are two companies, we have said before we parted that we will definitely work together. Besides, my brother and I are not here, and we both believe in you. ”
"Then, when are you leaving, Mr. Xiao?" Tian Tian asked, looking at Xiao Na.
"Come with them later, and go to the airport in the afternoon. ”
"She's going out to fall in love, she's going to find Lu Hua!" Yanzi looked at Xiao Na with a wicked smile on her face, "We Xiao Na can't sleep even if we think about Lu Hua now." ”
"It's normal for me to go out and fall in love, you guys are still running to Europe, but I haven't even been out of the province. ”
"Brother Song promised me before to go to Europe to take wedding photos. You're going to go later?"
Xiao Song immediately stopped with a serious face, "Come on, you two will start making trouble together, this is the company, there is no company image at all!" Then he got up and said to Tian Tian, "We have to go, there are still many things to do in the morning." No matter how hard you work, you have to take care of the work on both sides. By the way, there are the right people who can get in first, you decide. ”
A few people went out to get into the car, how did Xiao Song get into the co-pilot?
Tian Tian realized that there was actually someone in the driver's seat, and he was too anxious to find it just now.
The car turned into Admiral Street and slowly disappeared into the thick fog.
Tian Tian sat on the chair with his buttocks, his whole body was inexplicably paralyzed, and he didn't have a trace of strength.
Li Jia, who is on hygiene duty, is working hard to mop the floor. Seeing Tian Tian look like this, she straightened up and looked at Tian Tian with a blank face. Thinking that Tian Tian, who can be so deeply appreciated and trusted by the boss, what else can make her look so depressed?
Tian Tian's mood has been low and sullen. She has always considered herself tenacious and thinks that she will not be affected by her personal emotions at work, and now she also deeply feels the helplessness and powerlessness of Wu Ping, Deng Qiqi and Luo Li. No matter who you are, once you fall into this thing, it is an endless net, and it is difficult to escape even if you struggle.
At ten o'clock, the bright bouquet of roses arrived.
The people in the store are accustomed to the presence of this bouquet of flowers, and they are surrounded by this rich fragrance of flowers every day, which is a wonderful thing, and it is best to be able to send it all the time. Whether it is light and shadow communication or time communication, everyone knows that there is a person named Muzi who is pursuing Tian Tian, but the only people who can know that Muzi is Su Yang are Xiao Song, Xiao Na, Yanzi, He Wenxuan, and Liu Xuemei and Meiling, but everyone who knows is the same as keeping their promises, and not a word has been missed.
As long as Su Yang is on the CD, he will come over every other day, chat with Liu Xuemei, and then ask Liu Xuemei to take Tian Tian and the three of them to have lunch together. Tian Tian naturally understood Su Yang's intentions, and Liu Xuemei certainly understood and was happy to help Su Yang.
Now, even the man who sends flowers can joke to the girls in the store: Sister, let them send you flowers in the future, don't do it if you don't send flowers, a man who is too small and angry can't marry.
Everyone started laughing. As Xiao Na said, their store recruits peach blossoms.
Tian Tian looked at this bouquet of flowers, looked at this bouquet of flowers for a long time, and even the branches of the flowers were still damp mist, condensed into fine ice crystals. Her face was as calm as water, but her heart was turning over the river and the sea, countless waves were hitting her wave after wave, her fragile body began to tremble, flutter, and began to become cold, at this moment she was so strong in need of a warm harbor.
She began to want to send this bouquet of flowers to Su Yang.
This is a patient man, and a patient person is generally tenacious.
This is a very persistent man, and persistence can make people understand where their hearts are and there is nothing else
This is a man who can tolerate loneliness, and loneliness will make a person more mature and wiser.
She resolutely came to the cashier counter and picked up the phone under Liu Xuemei's surprised gaze. Then I dialed the phone number of Time Communication.
The sensational news came out like this, less than two hours after Xiao Song, Xiao Na, and Yanzi left.
This is what Tian Tian said after the phone was connected.
"Wenwen, is Su Yang here?"
"Tian Tian, Su Yang, smoking outside. ”
"Let him answer the phone. ”
Zou Wenwen's voice came from the microphone, Su Yang, Su Yang, the phone? Su Yang's voice was also very loud, who would look for me? Tian Tian was looking for you. I'll come right away, wait.
"Tian Tian, I'm Su Yang. Su Yang's voice began to tremble from overexcitement and nervousness.
Tian Tian's voice softened, and he said word by word, "Su Yang, from today onwards, I will accept you as my boyfriend, and we will have dinner together at noon." Then without waiting for Su Yang to speak again, she hung up the phone.
Liu Xuemei was stunned by Tian Tian's sudden move, and she didn't react for a long time, this was too sudden!
What happened to Tian Tian today? Why did you suddenly agree today after talking about it for so long? She was so dazed that she didn't give Tian Tian a hug, and then looked at Tian Tian and went to the lounge with an indifferent face and closed the door.
Tian Tian, who was alone, could no longer suppress his emotions. She removed her hard shell and began to cry, quietly until she wailed without hesitation. Although the room was soundproofed, everyone outside could still hear it, and everyone hadn't recovered from the shock just now, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what happened. Didn't you say that Su Yang should be a boyfriend, it should be a very happy thing, how compatible these two are! Why are they still crying like this? Tian Tian, who is in a bad mood, can't be provoked! Sometimes it is even more terrible than Xiao Na who is angry. When preparing for the opening, several people experienced it once, so everyone looked panicked, sticking to their posts, and occasionally quietly looked at the reception room. Liu Xuemei didn't dare to go in, she could only watch stupidly outside, and she couldn't do anything.
The sobbing voice gradually weakened, and Tian Tian was also tired.
All the depression in the past few months, let the tears wash her away completely.
Is it a farewell, or a rebirth?
Now, I'm going to welcome a brand new field, a field that is starting to fall in love, and a field that is loved and loved.
She wiped away her tears, adjusted her breath, and carefully repaired the makeup that had already cried. Then opened the door and walked out, she said to herself in her heart, this is the first step of my new life, at noon, I want to be beautiful and happily go to dinner with Su Yang. By the way, I also want to call Mei Ling and Xuemei, I want them to feel happy too.
She didn't care at all about the strange and confused eyes of the few people at the door.
In Time Communications, the situation is a completely different story.
The moment Su Yang put down the phone, he jumped up with excitement. Then when he saw Zou Wenwen next to him with a blank face, he couldn't help but give Zou Wenwen a big bear hug, which made Zou Wenwen, who was already at a loss, even more dazed.
What's wrong with today's fog?
Emotions are contagious, and in less than a minute, everyone knows the content of this call, and it is a call from Tian Tian himself. The reactions were different, but after calming down, what bothered everyone was a common proposition: Wasn't it Muzi who pursued Tian Tian? Why did Tian Tian let Su Yang be her boyfriend? Aren't Wu Ping and Deng Qiqi competing for Su Yang's pole position? Why has it become Tian Tian now?
Who can explain this matter?
The most confused should be Wu Ping and Deng Qiqi. They didn't understand it at all, and there was no sign of this, since Tian Tian used to communicate with light and shadow, Su Yang and Tian Tian didn't even talk much, Su Yang basically spent a lot of time with them, why did Tian Tian suddenly call Su Yang now? Why did Su Yang suddenly become Tian Tian's boyfriend?
Something must be wrong with this?
Wu Ping was okay, she forced herself to squeeze out a smile in front of everyone, although she clearly knew that everyone also knew that she was desperately trying to suppress her emotions, who made herself the store manager? She didn't know that Tian Tian, as the store manager, was even crying heartbreakingly at the same time, if she knew, she thought that she would definitely be like this, and if she held it like this, it would become an internal injury.
Deng Qiqi covered her face and ran out.
When Xu Jun was about to go out with him, he was stopped by He Wenxuan, "It's not appropriate for you to go out now, it may cause a chain reaction, so it's better for me to persuade you." ”
Deng Qiqi squatted in a corner ten meters away, buried her head in her legs, and cried silently.
He Wenxuan stood quietly next to him and didn't speak. He usually has a clever tongue and is now suffering from word poverty, and he doesn't know what to say to comfort Deng Qiqi, who is so sad, and he can't even understand what kind of pain it will be.
When Deng Qiqi calmed down a little, he patted her on the shoulder and handed over a tissue. Deng Qiqi looked up at He Wenxuan in surprise, and after a little hesitation, she still took the tissue and wiped it on her eyes a few times, she didn't worry about makeup, because she rarely wore makeup. What she thought was, how could the person who comforted her in this situation be He Wenxuan?
He Wenxuan lowered his voice and said to Deng Qiqi, "Qiqi, it's not worth this, you are the same as Wu Ping, you didn't have any chance at the beginning, not at all." ”
Deng Qiqi stared at He Wenxuan with wide eyes that were still faintly tearful, and looked at He Wenxuan in puzzlement, "Why?"
"What Su Yang liked at the beginning was Tian Tian."
"How so? The two of them don't even have time to talk?"
"It's true, it was from the beginning. ”
"If he didn't like us, why didn't he tell us earlier, and kept hanging Wu Ping and me, so that we both felt that we had hope. ”
"Isn't it equivalent to telling you now? What he likes is Tian Tian, didn't you see Su Yang's happy look?"
"But he didn't pursue Tian Tian, could it be that Tian Tian was pursuing him Su Yang couldn't succeed? No, Tian Tian is such a proud person!"
He has been pursuing Tian Tian for a long time, but Tian Tian has not agreed. I don't know why Tian Tian suddenly agreed today, there must be a reason for this. He Wenxuan was also very confused.
"Isn't it a person named Muzi who sent flowers to Tian Tian?"
"Muzi is Su Yang. He Wenxuan wanted to continue to say that Muzi was Su Yang's stage name, saying that Su Yang was a very talented singer, but he suddenly stopped it, and now no one can say it.
Deng Qiqi suddenly realized at this time. She looked at He Wenxuan and didn't speak.
"It's better to cry, and it's good to release your emotions. Look at Wu Ping, she is panicking there!"
Deng Qiqi couldn't help but smile, and her heart was a lot lighter.
He Wenxuan stretched out his hand, Deng Qiqi hesitated, but still took He Wenxuan's hand, stood up with a little effort, and tidied up his hair and clothes. Start walking back.
"Are you alright?"
"How can it be okay? There must be something! But in a few days it will be fine, I will digest it, my character is like this, I don't spend too much time on hopeless things. Now that I have explained, since no one else likes me, it is useless for me to like him no matter how much I stalk him. Right, I have to like at least someone who likes me. It's not that no one likes me, I'm still very appealing ------."
He Wenxuan almost said it, Qiqi, I like you.
When the words came to his lips, he braked hard. How could I, He Wenxuan, do such a thing?
For so long, he had been paying attention to Deng Qiqi, and he had long known that Su Yang would not like Deng Qiqi, but this matter could only be said by Su Yang and not by himself. If you say that you like her at this time, it will inevitably mean that you take advantage of the fire to rob, and it is not kind at all. Whatever I He Wenxuan does, I must be upright and upright, that is, I want to pursue you, and I have to wait for you to completely come out of the shadow of this relationship.
He secretly liked Deng Qiqi for a long, long time.
The mood in the store is still very chaotic, and if it continues to develop in the current state, it will not be a performance today. As the store manager, Wu Ping can't get out of it herself, let alone stop others.
He Wenxuan thought, it can't go on like this, now he can only come forward by himself, and no one else can be calm. He stood at the door, organized a few people, and shouted in a thick voice.
"Okay, this matter is over, it's time to go to work, everyone sticks to their posts, what to do, don't affect the normal work anymore, otherwise the boss will track it down, and no one will be able to escape. If we don't get the job done, all of us will have to pay for it. Do you understand?"
Ho is not a manager, but his personal influence has always been there.
The store has just begun to return to its normal state, although everyone is still confused in their hearts, but at least they will not be in groups and disrupted the normal order.
At this point, time communication is not as good as light and shadow communication, even if Tian Tian is crying inside, the people outside still stick to their posts, but you look at me and I look at you, everyone is just confused in their hearts, and there is no blatant discussion in the group.
This is the difference between Tian Tian and Wu Ping.
After calming down, Tian Tian reacted that he had just handled this matter inappropriately.
She began to worry that the people at Time Telecom would lose control of the scene because of this. She knows Wu Ping's character, and she also knows that Wu Ping, as a party, is just like her emotions just now, and it is difficult to get out of the shadows in a short time.
Personal emotions can't affect work, since it's your own mistakes, you have to make up for them.
So she decided to go over and check it out right away.
From a distance, she saw He Wenxuan talking emotionally, and hurriedly trotted all the way over, He Wenxuan just disbanded everyone, and she missed less than a minute.
When she appeared at the door, there was an inexplicable emotional change in the store.
Again, she organized everyone to stand in two rows in the middle. After all, he is the person who communicates with time, and after all, he has also brought these people for a long time, and his influence has always existed. The key problem is that the two companies are still the same company in the final analysis, and she Tian Tian is now the boss's most trusted celebrity, so everyone has to listen to her words.
Tian Tian has now completely switched to his usual working mode.
"There are two main things. First, I apologize to everyone for a wrong act just now, I shouldn't use the company phone to make private calls during working hours, and also talk about personal feelings on the phone, causing everyone's work order to get out of control, this is my problem. I apologize and at the same time fine myself with $200 to promise not to make similar mistakes again. The second question, this morning, entrusted by Mr. Xiao of Time Communication, she temporarily decided to go out for a week, considering the current management situation of Time Communication, I will directly participate in the management of Time Communication until Mr. Xiao comes back. Starting from today, every day before getting off work, I will come to your party to summarize today's work and arrange tomorrow's work. Then I went back to the light and shadow communication organization party. Store manager Wu Ping should know about this matter. ”
Wu Ping raised her hand to add, saying that Mr. Xiao had told her about this matter.
But in this state, she hated Tian Tian to death in her heart, because Tian Tian snatched Su Yang she liked, and she may never have a chance to snatch Su Yang back from Tian Tian's hands. Even if Tian Tian went to Light and Shadow Communication, in the hearts of everyone in Time Communication, Tian Tian is still a god-like existence, including her Wu Ping. No matter how much hatred she has in her heart now, this point is still unavoidable, and she always has a shadow in her heart for Tian Tian.
Wu Ping's heart was even desperate, Tian Tian, why do you want to grab everything?
This day, December 25, 1992, Christmas.
Xiao Song and Yanzi are married.
Xiao Na went to find Lu Hua for Christmas.
Tian Tian and Su Yang have confirmed their friendship.
Wu Ping, Deng Qiqi and Su Yang were already out of the game before they started.
He Wenxuan began to secretly rejoice that he had the opportunity to pursue his favorite Deng Qiqi.
Xu Jun was very happy to have the opportunity to get close to Deng Qiqi, but he was very depressed, and the opportunity was preempted by He Wenxuan.
------
There are a lot of other people who don't know what's going on in their minds.
But there is no doubt that the fog this morning will be destined to shroud many people's hearts for many years, and will eventually flash and flash in countless moments in the next countless moments, even 0.1 seconds. Or it will be difficult to let go for the rest of your life.
Outside the door, Taisheng South Road, surrounded by heavy white fog clouds, occasionally car horns and bicycle bells intersect, difficult and slow to move forward. The passers-by were wrapped in thick coats, their faces were slightly red from the cold, and the breath exhaled from their mouths instantly formed a string of mist, which dissipated in the cold air. The trees that were bare on weekdays can only be faintly visible now, and the sparrows that used to chirp on the branches have long since disappeared.
Everyone is probably cursing the weather, thinking to themselves how nice it would be to be in a warm bed when they don't go to work.
