Chapter 83: Absurdity
That day, Lu Xiaochao asked me what I would do for someone if I really fell in love with her.
I thought about it for a long time, and for the first time I thought about a question so seriously, what can I do for the person I love, but I didn't come up with a reason for thinking about it for so long, so I asked Lu Xiaochao, "What will you do for the person you love?"
Lu Xiaochao said, "Give him happiness." β
Lu Xiaochao's preliminary works were successfully selected, and she directly entered the finals;
However, the competition system of the finals has been temporarily adjusted, in the past, the designer himself elaborated on the design concept of his work, but this year it is different, the contestants representing the enterprise must interpret the work in the form of a short film, and the form of the short film is mainly an advertising film.
The company is busy with this matter.
Lu Xiaochao and Yuhan have been busy with the design draft of the finals, they don't have much time, as soon as the design draft comes out, the samples and advertising films have to be carried out immediately, and there are not many days before the finals, Lu Xiaochao took advantage of this reason to completely bury herself in the work, she often works overtime in the company until late at night, but most of the time Xiao Sa will accompany her, and I can only sigh with joy.
That night in the hotel room, Lu Xiaochao pillowed on my arm and cried for a long time, so long that I felt that my sleeve was about to squeeze out the water, and she fell asleep deeply.
We slept in our clothes, lying in the hotel bed, and nothing happened.
That night, I couldn't sleep for a long time after Lu Xiaochao fell asleep, Lu Xiaochao said dream language from time to time, and I could vaguely hear Zhang Xingchen's name, she was lying in my arms, holding the corner of my clothes. In his sleep, he shouted other people's names.
When I woke up in the morning, I was covered with the quilt I had given to Lu Xiaochao last night, but Lu Xiaochao was long gone.
Time flies, and the days I thought were difficult passed in a hurry, and Lin Xuan handed over the matter of the final short film to me, and I didn't refuse. Just took this opportunity to say a few words to Lu Xiaochao.
"Why are you stunned, I'm talking to you!" Li Xuan stretched out her hand and shook it in front of me dissatisfied.
"Huh, what are you talking about?" I came back to my senses and saw Lin Xuan glaring at me.
"Lu Xiaochao just came over to tell me that the company's team should be responsible for Yuhan's advertising, and she has to figure it out by herself. What do you think about this?" Lin Xuan repeated.
"Herself, what does she think? Does she have the funds?"
"I read the design ideas and sketches of the advertisement, and they are not bad, as for the budget for other shoots. She also sorted it out for me, and it was reasonable, and I had already instructed the finance department. Lin Xuan didn't seem to have any objection to Lu Xiaochao's decision, and there was still some unhinted approval in her eyes.
I leaned over and asked Lin Xuan: "Lu Xiaochao wants to design his own advertising video, you agree with this, what's the matter? Aren't you afraid that she will mess things up?"
Li Xuan smiled, put down the pen in her hand, and said solemnly: "I saw her advertising creativity. It's funny, but I'm impressed with her this time. Whether it's jewelry design, advertising design, advertising budget and a bunch of miscellaneous things, she handles it very well. β
Do you know why a woman like you can't get married?" I pouted disdainfully: "You guys are just too capable, and you don't leak." Men don't have a chance to show off in front of you, who would dare to marry such a woman?"
Lin Xuan glanced at me funny, and began to drive people away: "Don't be poor, the company has so many things to do, and you are the most idle." β
"Then I'm leaving. He said. I got up and walked out.
"Eh, wait a minute. Lin Xuan stopped me again, and I turned around and saw that she had a hesitant look, as if she was about to say something.
"What's wrong?Is something wrong?Second sister, she ...... again"
"It's not your second sister, it's Lu Xiaochao, yesterday I heard Qin Jiami's conversation with her downstairs in the company, it seems that after the end of this design competition, Harlon and Qin Jiami's wedding is going to be held, she invited Lu Xiaochao to attend her wedding, and Lu Xiaochao agreed. β
"Lu Xiaochao just loves to practice himself, and it has nothing to do with me. β
"I just think she's pathetic. Lin Xuan said with a worried face.
"She brought it all upon herself. I said angrily.
It's lunch time, I came out of Lin Xuan's office, and took the elevator directly to the company's staff restaurant, Lu Xiaochao's three meals have been solved here, almost every time I see her, there is a picture album next to her dinner plate, she is eating, and when she thinks of something, she picks up the pencil stuck in her hair and buries her head in a crazy drawing.
I looked around, but there was no one in sight of her in the restaurant today.
"General Manager. A female voice sounded behind me, I turned around and saw Yuhan and Ling Mei, Yuhan still had a happy smile on her face, Ling Mei was probably assimilated by Lu Xiaochao, and there was no extra expression.
"The general manager has been frequenting the staff cafeteria lately!" Yuhan teased.
I sat down with my plate and they sat down across from me.
"Yuhan, this time you are good!" I said with a smile without stinging with my compliments.
A flattered smile immediately appeared on Yuhan's face, "It's really not easy to get the praise of the general manager. β
"How are the finalists preparing?" I asked with a smile, and couldn't help but glance at Ling Mei, who looked preoccupied and couldn't swallow her expression.
"It's not very smooth, but I'm very happy that the company can give me this opportunity to participate. But general manager, why didn't those designers who were older than me and Sister Xiao Chao participate?"
"Those seniors in your design department have basically participated in the design competition, and it is said that they have also won the potential award or the creativity award, but their status in the industry is not as good as at the beginning, few people will be willing to take the risk to participate in the competition, Lin Dong intends to cultivate newcomers, it is said that the finalists and designers can participate in the jewelry tour, for you, the opportunity is rare. I said patiently, and Yuhan listened very carefully.
"The theme of the final is that if life is only as it first sees, I feel that this theme is too sad. This is a big problem for me, we design the work to give people happiness and beauty, but if we design the work with this theme, isn't it not admirable?" Yuhan said dissatisfiedly, scooping a mouthful of rice and stuffing it into his mouth. Chew hard a few times.
What if life is only as it first seems?
I don't know how Lu Xiaochao's design direction was set.
"Ling Mei, why haven't you eaten, it's not right all morning, what's wrong with you?" Yuhan looked at Ling Mei and asked in surprise.
"Nothing. Ling Mei said with a far-fetched smile.
"At first glance, I have a lot of thoughts, what's wrong?" I put down my chopsticks, took a sip of water, and stared at Ling Mei out of the corner of my eye.
Ling Mei hesitated for a while, but still spoke: "General manager, at noon, I saw Xiao Chao get into the car of Fuli Group and leave, she will be fine, right? I also heard her call the other party Chairman Ru, I'm worried about her, it won't be Director Ru who is making trouble for her, right?"
"What did she say on the phone?" I asked.
"I heard her say that she asked the other party to help her find someone, and what else did she say...... As long as someone is found, she can promise to help that person. β
I glanced at Ling Mei, the concern on her face seemed to be real, if there was indeed such a thing, it did not mean it. Lu Xiaochao has already formed some kind of trading relationship with Ru Lang?
"Sister Xiao Chao won't really leak the company's secrets to the Fuli Group, right?" Yuhan shouted, attracting the sideways glances of many people. Seeing this, she lowered her voice and said, "But isn't Sister Xiaochao and the general manager lovers?
"No, Lu Xiaochao won't be there, don't worry, it must be a misunderstanding. As I spoke, I smiled calmly at the two of them.
Then. Xiao Sa and a few colleagues talked and laughed into the restaurant, obviously saw me, but pretended not to see it, and walked past us without squinting.
I ate a few bites absentmindedly, waiting for Xiao Sa to find a table with a full plate. Immediately walked up and intercepted him.
"Xiao Sa!" I stopped in front of him, and several of his other colleagues immediately greeted him respectfully, and I waved my hand to break them all away.
"It's dinner time, general manager, you're abusing the company's employees!" Xiao Sa protested dissatisfiedly.
"Talk to me. I smiled patiently.
"I don't have anything to say to you. β
"It's Lu Xiaochao's business. "Lu Xiaochao's closest person is this stinky boy, if he doesn't have some use value, I have to fire him.
But when Xiao Sa heard me mention Lu Xiaochao, he was even more vigilant: "Then there is nothing to say, Lu Xiaochao is Zhang Xingchen's, don't beat her idea." β
I was secretly funny, it seemed that Xiao Sa didn't know about Lu Xiaochao and Zhang Xingchen's falling out, so I asked him: "Did you have a falling out with Lu Xiaochao? Why didn't you know that she and Zhang Xingchen broke up completely?"
"What are you talking about!" Dr. Xiao Sa exclaimed exaggeratedly, and he immediately put the plate in his hand on the table, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and began to dial.
"Don't fight, this is true, if I have a word for you, I will punish me for liking Lu Xiaochao for the rest of my life. "I raise my hand and swear.
Xiao Sa muttered: "What kind of poisonous oath is this?" As he spoke, he sat down at the dining table, turned his face up and said to me: "It's still not right, how can Lu Xiaochao not show any signs of breaking up?"
Before I could say anything, Xiao Sa's thoughts disturbed me again, he suddenly stood up from the chair with a mouthful of rice in his mouth, and his eyes were about to fall out, "Do you like Lu Xiaochao?"
"Is that the point now?" I gave him a blank look.
Until now, she still has the heart to help Zhang Xingchen find her mother, which is really touching! For Zhang Xingchen, she did not hesitate to choose to cooperate with Ru Lang? Is she naΓ―ve or brainless, at this point, does she still want to save Zhang Xingchen's heart? Does she still think that she can give Zhang Xingchen happiness?
What about Ru Lang, what is his purpose?
With a mind full of questions, I dialed Lu Xiaochao's new mobile phone number.
After a while, the phone was connected, and there was a rustling sound inside, and I fed it several times, and it took a long time to hear Lu Xiaochao's voice: "Help ......" (to be continued......
