Chapter 1: The Disaster of Christmas Eve

Next Chapter

Just after nine o'clock in the evening, a group of mysterious white jade elves suddenly ran in the sky, and the elves danced happily, and finally naughtily turned into crystals. The day before Christmas, the city of Mingyang finally ushered in the first snow of this winter.

Under the neon lights, the small snowflakes reflect colorful light, and the young people who have taken to the streets are waving their hands happily and excitedly.

Walking on the bustling pedestrian street, Li Yang tightened his collar, blew his hands that were red from the cold, and walked quickly towards a fast food restaurant.

After eliminating all the spicy beef noodles, Li Yang's body gradually warmed up, looking at the lively crowd outside, Li Yang's eyes unnaturally showed a trace of envy.

Christmas Eve is beautiful and happy, but these joys do not belong to him.

Li Yang is 24 years old this year, 1.8 meters tall, white and clean, neither fat nor thin, and has been staying in this city since graduating from Mingyang University the year before last. Mingyang University is a second-class undergraduate school, but in the current situation that most of the country's large enterprises only recognize the key first-class undergraduate degree, Li Yang's second-class undergraduate diploma is not much better than that of a junior college.

At the end of September this year, Li Yang, who had been unemployed for more than two months, successfully entered the work of An's Jewelry from the competition of hundreds of people and became an intern salesman.

Although it is just an ordinary trainee salesperson, the basic salary and commission are quite good, and the monthly salary is still very considerable. Especially after becoming a regular, the basic salary and commission have been greatly improved, and there will be a variety of benefits, Li Yang has calculated an account for this, if he can stay in the company steadily, within three years, he can have a two-bedroom apartment of his own in Mingyang, a second-tier city.

Moreover, Mingyang An's Jewelry is only a branch of the head office, if you have the ability and perform well enough, there is still a high room for growth, and it is not impossible to become a senior gold collar with a house and a car.

It's just that the premise of all this is to take off the hat of the internship first, this time the company recruited five interns, and in the end only two people could be left, among the five people, whether it is ability or performance Li Yang is on the lower side, without any advantages, he may be difficult to stay in the end.

An's Jewelry is located in the most prosperous Central Plaza in Mingyang City, around the corner is Mingyang City Pedestrian Street, from the pedestrian street to eat supper Li Yang along the road to Mingyang City's widest Jinggang Avenue, the company dormitory is on the other side of the Jinggang Avenue in the community.

"It's so cold, it's comfortable to go back!" Li Yang ran a few words quickly, comforting himself in his heart, because the company and the dormitory have heating, Li Yang usually doesn't wear much, in fact, Li Yang runs and walks for a few minutes every day, which can be regarded as a role in exercising.

"Squeak!"

A red Chevrolet Luck suddenly stopped beside Li Yang, and Li Yang stopped and stood still, looking at this exquisite car with a little envy. This car Li Yang knows, it is their company's colleague Wu Xiaoli, Wu Xiaoli and Li Yang are interns who came in this time, but the status of the two in the company is very different.

Wu Xiaoli is young and beautiful, and a graduate of Tsinghua University, in less than three months of internship, the sales performance is twice as good as that of the old employees, and she is the most outstanding one among the five interns, and the company has rumors that she is ready to be promoted to assistant manager after the internship period.

There is no deputy manager in An's jewelry branch, and the position of assistant is actually equivalent to deputy manager, which means that people will become company leaders after the internship period, and Li Yang is still worried about whether he can continue to stay after the internship period.

"Li Yang, do you want me to send you a paragraph!"

Wu Xiaoli in the car said to Li Yang with a smile, Wu Xiaoli can be said to be the most beautiful girl in the company, she usually doesn't like to dress up very much, but she is not worse than the so-called star, but she usually has a little arrogance on her face, and she has a feeling that no one is close.

"Thank you, it's the dormitory opposite, you don't need to send it!" Li Yang touched his nose and smiled bitterly.

This Wu Xiaoli is an advantage in all aspects, but these advantages also cause her to have a shortcoming, that is, she is too arrogant, and she especially likes to show herself. Li Yang has always been the most reluctant to deal with such a person, so the two usually have no friendship in the company, I really don't know why Wu Xiaoli stopped herself at this time.

Wu Xiaoli nodded slightly, and said to Li Yang with a smile: "Okay, by the way, today Manager Zhang asked me to make a company-wide performance report, your results are not very ideal, you are the penultimate among the four interns, I am afraid it will be difficult to stay in the company after the internship period is over!" ”

"Thank you Xiaoli, I'll do my best in the last few days!" Li Yang smiled bitterly again, this Wu Xiaoli has not yet become an assistant, and she has already begun to show off her official position.

"Well, very good, I hope we can continue to be colleagues in the future, although your performance is not the best, but you are the most diligent one, I will reflect these to Manager Zhang, okay, you go back to rest, I should also go home!"

Wu Xiaoli waved her hand, regardless of Li Yang's reaction, she raised the glass of the car and drove away slowly, Li Yang shook his head again, if he hadn't overheard Wu Xiaoli say something similar to another intern yesterday, maybe he would really be grateful to her in his heart.

Shaking his head, don't think about this, Wu Xiaoli and him are not the same kind of people at all, and it is useless to think about these things at all.

"What a cute girl!"

As soon as he was about to leave, Li Yang couldn't help but secretly scream, and ten meters opposite Li Yang, a girl wearing a tight black down jacket and a height of more than one meter and six meters tall was holding the hand of a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy and slowly walking towards him along the sidewalk.

The girl in front of her only had a ponytail tied on her head, no hairpin, no necklace, bright eyes, a pink and white goose egg face, and a slight redness on her face, and walked straight past Li Yang.

The little snow is still falling slowly, and the girl walks in the snow like a fairy who does not touch a trace of human dust, and those little snowflakes seem to be just around her, and she does not dare to easily desecrate this beautiful fairy.

'Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving'

It's not that Li Yang hasn't seen a beautiful woman, Wu Xiaoli of their company is one, and there is no shortage of young and beautiful beauties who usually come to their jewelry company's store, but like the beautiful woman in front of her who doesn't wear any jewelry, but obviously has a pure temperament, it is definitely the first time to see it, this girl is completely different from those vulgar women who can't walk when they see diamonds.

A minute later, Li Yang actually turned around and chased after him, which was definitely an incredible thing for Li Yang, who was more shy with his surname.

"Sister, there are shooting stars!" The little boy beside the girl suddenly shouted, and Li Yang, who was already about to walk to the girl's side, hurriedly stopped, raised his head and looked at the sky, hiding the weakness of following others just now.

In the sky, a shining light was falling rapidly, and Li Yang's mind was immediately attracted by this beautiful meteor, and at this moment, he thought of a legend.

Legend has it that when a meteor crosses, if you make a wish, it will come true.

"May Mom and Dad live a long and healthy life!"

Li Yang quickly read it silently in his heart, and then smiled at the light that had not faded. In this extremely short period of time, he didn't think about the job he was about to lose, nor did he think about the girl in front of him, such a rare opportunity Li Yang's first choice was his parents.

The smile only lasted on Li Yang's face for a few seconds, and the next moment he opened his mouth wide again, and the meteor did not disappear, but became brighter and brighter, and now it was slanting in their direction like a fireball.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the earth shook suddenly, and a huge dust mist suddenly appeared not far in front of Li Yang, and the ground was also shaking slightly.

At this time, there were many people on the side of the road, most of them were frightened stupid by the sudden change in front of them, many girls let out piercing screams, crying everywhere, and on the night of Christmas Eve, there were many people playing on the street.

Li Yang half-squatted on the ground, staring blankly at the scattered dust in front of him, three or four meters away from him was the little boy who called out the 'meteor' just now, the little boy's whole body was lying on the ground, and he didn't know if he was injured, and the innocent girl was now sitting on the other side with a sluggish face.

"Boom!"

The shaking of the ground suddenly increased, and Li Yang knelt directly on the ground to maintain the balance of his body, facing the strange and unknown danger in front of him, Li Yang's mood calmed down.

After a quick check of his body, he immediately observed the surrounding environment after making sure that his body was not injured, and most of the street lights on the road had been extinguished, but fortunately, there was still some light. Now the ground is still a little shaking, scattered gravel falls from time to time in the sky, there is a lot of dust floating around, and panicked people are running everywhere, before he can figure out what happened, Li Yang decided to carefully observe and make plans.

As early as when he was in college, the instructor gave Li Yang a high evaluation, among all the students, Li Yang's mentality is the best one, and he is not surprised when he is not panicked, which is very rare and valuable.

Now, this good attitude is undoubtedly revealed, and the more chaotic the surroundings, the calmer Li Yang's heart becomes.

Li Yang's eyes suddenly widened, and a tall telephone pole on the side of the road on his left side shook very much, and tilted straight in his direction.

"Damn it!"

Li Yang scolded in his heart, regardless of the tilting telephone pole above his head, he stood up straight, the earth was still shaking, and the telephone pole could fall down at any time, standing under the tilted telephone pole like this was no different from looking for death.

The reason why Li Yang didn't dodge was entirely because of the little boy next to him, the little boy was under the tilted telephone pole like Li Yang, Li Yang could dodge it as soon as he jumped, but the little boy had absolutely no chance of being spared.

The innocent girl beside the little boy suddenly let out a terrible scream, the girl seemed to wake up and noticed the danger around her, and hurriedly dragged the little boy's body, but in the panic and nervousness, she just pulled the corner of the little boy's clothes, maybe the little boy would return to heaven in a few seconds.

At the critical moment, Li Yang, who was still shaking despite the fact that the earth was still shaking, had already arrived at the little boy's side, directly picked up the little boy and jumped out, and at this time, the telephone pole that had been tilted to a certain extent finally smashed down heavily.

"Bang!"

Li Yang only felt a sudden pain in his body, and then completely lost consciousness, most of Li Yang's body had already dodged, but his arm was rubbed by a telephone pole, and bright red blood immediately gushed out of his arm, dyeing the little boy's body red.

The earth suddenly stopped, the dust was still filled, and the howling continued, but no one noticed that an inconspicuous black light suddenly penetrated Li Yang's injured body from a distance.
