"I heard that there were dead people last night. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Who is it this time?"

"Xi'er of Jianfu Palace was found soaking in the well of the garden early in the morning."

"However, this well mouth is so small, how did you get in?"

"It is said that all the bones in the body are broken, as if someone has forced them in, which is really miserable. This is already the third one, and the whole of Jianfu Palace is now like a frightened bird, for fear that the next one will be himself, I heard that the emperor is alarmed. ”

"They deserve it, who let them treat Mo ...... like this"

"Shhh, don't mention this name, I get chills at the mention of her, let's go quickly, so as not to get into any bad luck......"

Today is Wu Xi's first day of work, and when she tried to inhale and squeeze her body into the elevator, she found that she was really a little out of place with the people around her. In the elevator, except for Wu Xi, who was wearing a white shirt and a skirt and high heels, everyone else was dressed in a simple T-shirt and denim, kicking flip-flops, unkempt, and yawning. What's more, completely ignoring the crowded scene, he munched on scallion pancakes. Wu Xi was so forced by the smell of ecstasy that she didn't dare to take a breath, the elevator bell finally rang, Wu Xi exhaled a breath that made her chest ache, smoothed the corners of her wrinkled skirt, and rushed to the office with the rolling crowd.

Wu Xi is a graduate of a university in D City this year, and the company she works for is the news department of an Internet company, but her major is not journalism, but law. According to her own words, it was because high school was too hard, and she wanted to relax for a summer vacation, but she didn't expect to relax and relax for four years, so she failed the judicial exam, so she had to give up her ideal of being a lawyer and become a reporter in the legal society, which is a small regret for her. But for a student who has just entered the society, Wu Xi is still full of expectations for his first job, especially such a challenging journalist job.

Standing in the office of the director of the information department, Wu Xi's mind was already full of fantasies that he was holding a microphone, wearing a good-looking suit and skirt, and calmly broadcasting emergencies at various news scenes. However, as soon as the fantasy was halfway through, he was interrupted by the director with a two-handed mustache: "Xiao Wu, although we look like a high-end office building here, don't treat yourself as a senior white-collar worker before, a news unit, it is a place where women are used as men, and men are used as livestock. Wu Xi hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Yes, yes, don't worry, I will definitely be a cow and a horse, unkempt for my country's journalism, go to the soup and fire, and never give up." The director was amused by her, "The little girl is not stage frightened, okay, now I will introduce you to the head of her group." Wu Xixin let go slightly, and finally left a bad impression on people without the first face, blaming the people in the dormitory, each of them is either a lawyer or an accountant, and they all need formal clothes for their work, which made Wu Xi chaotic for a while, and prepared such an incompatible outfit for himself with them.

Before she could finish rejoicing, the director had already walked in front of their group, "This is the head of your social group, Xu Xing, you must be obedient in the future and learn more from him." Wu Xi quickly piled up a humble smile on his face, but the moment he saw the figure appear, he froze. What kind of face is this? Yes, she has never seen such a beautiful face, especially his eyes, black and white, like bottomless pools, but the corners of the eyes are slightly upturned, adding a hint of charm, the closed lips are moderately thin, the contours are distinct, and the high nose bridge just modifies the overly delicate characteristics of the facial features, making the whole face look more heroic. But why, when he saw him, Wu Xi's heart poured out a poem: Falling flowers are independent. She could only think of this scene, because although the owner of this face smiled at them, it still made you feel his indifference to rejecting people from thousands of miles away, or the deep loneliness that surrounded him, so that people involuntarily did not dare to approach him, as if he could only stand at a distance, looking at them from a perspective that she could not understand. Wu Xi was far from the only one who was shocked by 10,000 points, Ding Ding, who joined the company at the same time as her, said in a daze: "This has greatly increased the average appearance level of employees." ”

Xu Xing arranged the work of their group simply and clearly, and Wu Xi was assigned the task of doing a special interview with the characteristic people in different communities in D City, Wu Xi knew in her heart that this was a test of her own editing ability by the unit, so she worked hard to do her first job. After finding the phone numbers of the various street offices, contacting them one by one, and determining the interview list, most of the morning had slipped away, Wu Xi felt thirsty, and she picked up the cup and came to the pantry. The pantry is on the north side of the office building, separated from the office by an elevator, and the entire pantry is empty at this point. Wu Xi didn't dare to make tea and coffee, so he hurriedly took a glass of water, thinking that he would hurry up and go back to work after drinking.

"The lights in the advertising department are broken, please find someone to fix it." A voice suddenly sounded behind her, so frightened that Wu Xi choked on a mouthful of water, coughed for a long time before raising his head and asking, "I'm sorry, is there something wrong?" The person standing in front of Wu Xi was as incompatible with the painting style of other people in this office building as she was, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, McQueen's casual shirt, Gucci's shoes, he made people feel very "expensive" from head to toe. "The lights in the advertising department are broken, let's find someone to fix them." "Fix the lamp...... I'm sorry, do you treat me as a property, I am a newcomer to the company today, not a property ......" Wu Xi's embarrassed voice became smaller and smaller, and he scolded himself ten thousand times in his heart, letting you wear this dress and letting you wear it so blindly. The person who came smiled, his eyes crooked: "I'm still thinking about where the company went to invite such a beautiful property, my name is Cui Minghan, from the advertising department, in order to apologize, I invite you to drink coffee, this coffee is not good, I have hanging ears in my office." ”

is really good at flirting with girls, even newcomers don't let go, Wu Xi thought to himself, but a smile appeared on his face: "It's okay, it's okay, you're too polite, it's me who is dressed inappropriately, I'm in a hurry to go out for an interview, I have to go back first." After she finished speaking, she hurriedly raised her feet to leave, but suddenly paused and turned back slowly, no, why does Cui Minghan have a double vision, is it that I am young and dazzled? Wu Xi muttered in his heart. She rubbed her eyes again, no, it wasn't her eyes that were spent, the ghost would move. When Cui Minghan was also staring at her inexplicably, the ghost next to him slowly panned out, she was not Cui Minghan, of course not, she was a woman, although her whole body was almost transparent, but Wu Xi could still see her eyes clearly, because up and down her body, only her eyes were pitch black, and there were no pupils. What does it feel like to be stared at by such eyes? In the weather in July, Wu Xi felt like falling into an ice cave, and he couldn't even breathe out, so he stayed in place. The shadow was getting closer and closer to her, so close that it could almost stick to Wu Xi's body, she seemed to be surrounded by moisture, both the tips of her hair and her clothes were soaked, dripping down drop by drop, and the water stains that fell on the ground were like Wu Xi's mood at the moment, cold and gloomy. Those eyes stared at her without blinking, such a beautiful pair of eyes, but they were shrouded in strong hatred and resentment. The air seemed to be condensed layer by layer, and only she and the shadow were left in the huge space, Wu Xi wanted to shout, but his throat couldn't make a sound as if it was locked by someone, and he wanted to escape, but he couldn't leave the ground an inch.

"What are you doing here, I've been looking for you for a long time, why haven't you shown me the interview outline." A cold voice came, and the woman's shadow disappeared in an instant, and Wu Xi felt the temperature slowly flow into his body from his fingers. Xu Xing looked at her behind her expressionlessly, but Wu Xi agreed yes and yes as if he had received a holy decree, and trotted all the way back to the office area, leaving Cui Minghan, who was stunned, standing there alone.

At lunchtime, for the first time in his life, Wu Xi couldn't eat. It's not because the new cafeteria is unappetizing, but because there is too much information this morning, and her brain is stirred into a pot of porridge: why can she see that "woman", but Cui Minghan has no reaction to this "woman" who is almost attached to him? Could it be that she suddenly had mental problems, and all of a sudden she had such a serious stage of hallucinations? And Xu Xing, why did he disappear as soon as he came? Did he call her because of a problem at work, or did he see the same thing as her, so he was helping her? But as soon as Xu Xing returned to the office, he started to work, and he didn't say a word to her, and he didn't know at all. She couldn't just ask him: "Hey, boss, I saw the hell just now, did you see the hell too?" That's the hell out of it.

Just when Wu Xi was about to bite the chopsticks, Bao inquired about Ding Ding, who lowered his head and gathered everyone together, and whispered: "Let's talk about our unit, there are more than 2,000 people, and there are really a lot of things worth gossiping." Hi hi hi, do you know who is the richest in the unit? Wu Xi suddenly became interested, and whispered: "Is that Cui Minghan?" Advertising Department's? "Yes, yes, yes, it's the one who is full of famous brands, don't look at him so young, he has already achieved the position of the director of the advertising department, and the annual advertising dividend alone is millions larger, driving a Porsche, and being named the fifth king of the unit's ashes diamond." "With such good conditions, why doesn't he have a girlfriend?" Wu Xi then went to the bottom of the matter. "It is said that there is a flight attendant girlfriend, and then he was dumped, know his aesthetic vision, I don't want to think about it anymore." Tintin shrugged and rolled his eyes.

"Dumped?" Wu Xi's mind couldn't turn for a while, the woman's black eyes were full of resentment, if Cui Minghan was the one who was dumped by her, how could he be so full of hatred for the women who were close to him? Crazy, I think I'm really crazy, and I actually began to analyze a hallucination, Wu Xi knocked his head a few times, but he still couldn't help but continue to dig Ding Ding, "What about Xu Xing, does he have any gossip?" "Xu Xing, 26, head of the social group of the Ministry of Public Information." "That's it?" Wu Xi couldn't wait to beat Ding Ding. That's it, he, except for work, has no communication with any colleagues in private, but with his face as cold as a peach blossom, it is estimated that few people dare to communicate with him, and no one knows his family and friendship status. It is said that when he first joined the company, many people secretly promised him, but he did not respond to all the hints, so everyone also retreated, but there was one person who insisted on 3 years and ate with him every day, but it was just a lunch together. ”

Ding Ding looked at the dining table in a corner, Wu Xi and they followed the direction she pointed to, and saw that Xu Xing was indeed eating with a girl, with an ordinary appearance and a middle-aged appearance, he really couldn't see anything special, they were eating, chatting a few words from time to time, basically the women asked, and the men answered. Wu Xi couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her, a woman, who had lunch with a man for three years, just to chat with him and understand his recent thoughts, completely ignoring the fact that other people in the unit had already pointed at her, treating her as a nymphomaniac, and ignoring this man, she had never really had a heart-to-heart with her, but just regarded talking to her, like chewing food, as a kind of masseter exercise.

Wu Xi's mobile phone rang suddenly, and when she saw the name of the caller ID, she rushed to the door to answer the phone like grasping a life-saving straw. The caller was Zhu Yu, Wu Xi's boyfriend. On the first day of the entrance ceremony, Zhu Yu was attracted by the girl's bright smile, and finally hugged the beauty in her sophomore year. Wu Xi told Zhu Yu what she had happened today like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and finally she said: "Zhu Yu, do you think I'm crazy." "Probably, do you remember a dream I told you about when I was a child? I always dream that a woman dressed in red is pestering me, so it seems that we are really a natural pair. Poof, Wu Xi was amused by him, "Who is a natural match with you." "Xixi, you recently took the bar exam first and then were busy looking for a job and then preparing for an interview or something, maybe it's really too stressful, listen to me, don't work when you go back from work today, let alone play with computers and mobile phones, rest early, buy you your favorite beef jerky, and wait at home for me to come back from a business trip." "Hmm." A shallow smile appeared at the corner of Wu Xi's mouth, and he felt a lot more at ease. It's the most beautiful time of my life, I like you, it just so happens that you like me too, what a lucky thing. Wu Xi returned to the cafeteria, honorably defended his title of David Wu, and ended lunch with a record of four chicken legs.
