The car blocked in front of it moved slowly, Mi Cai didn't realize it, her shoulders trembled slightly, and the car behind her had honked its horn to urge.

I finally patted Mi Cai on the shoulder and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Mi Cai raised her head and wiped away her tears with her hands, but she didn't look at me and said, "It's okay." Then he put on the gear and started the car to drive forward with the traffic, and the song "Proverbs of Love" finally ended, and the car gradually returned to calm.

I didn't want Micai to know that I was working at Polaroid, so I asked her to put me down on a platform, and I asked her as I parted, "Hey, can you help me move tonight, it's convenient to use your car." ”

"If you don't work overtime today, you can." Mi Cai did not refuse.

I smiled and said, "Okay, call after work." ”

Mi Cai nodded, closed the window and started the car, and instantly disappeared from my sight along the vast traffic, but I stood in place for a long time, remembering that she had just cried on the steering wheel because of a song, and my heart was at a loss.

I didn't want to find out what the "Proverbs of Love" reminded her of, but I did sympathize with her, and this sympathy deepened my guilt again.

……

When I came to the company, I didn't have time to take a breath, and Fang Yuan summoned the members of our planning and copywriting team to have a "brainstorming".

During the meeting, everyone turned from expressing their opinions to arguing and setting off a storm of brains, but I always sat in the corner absent-mindedly without saying a word, and this silence lasted until the end of the meeting.

After the brainstorming was over, everyone dispersed with the text folder, and I was still sitting in place, but my mind didn't know where it had drifted at all.

Fang Yuan took out a cigarette and shook it under my nose, and when I smelled the tobacco, I came back to my senses, and asked Fang Yuan in a wooden voice, "The storm is over?" ”

"I just want to know where this storm has blown you?" Fang Yuan's tone was a little displeased, he had always been meticulous in his work.

I didn't say a word, I took the cigarette out from between Fang Yuan's fingers, then lit it, and took a deep breath, but Fang Yuan pulled it back, snuffed it out and threw it in the garbage basket.

I frowned and said, "What the are you doing with me, I'm restless!" ”

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then realized that I was irritated by something, he dragged a chair and sat down beside me, before he could speak, his expression was already in place to interpret the bitter advice of the medicine that was going to happen next.

"Are you still struggling with the affairs of Zhuomei and Mi Cai?"

"That's what bothers me...... From yesterday to now, I feel like a criminal who has been a traitor and doesn't confess, do you understand this feeling? Like a fish in the throat! "I said more than one word at a time, venting the depression in my heart.

Fang Yuan sighed and said to me in a lighter tone: "Zhaoyang, in fact, I have already made it very clear to you yesterday about the stakes of the matter, no matter how guilty you are in your heart, but that is always Zhuomei's internal matter, we must stay out of it." ”

I was silent again, it was useless for me to talk to Fang Yuan about this matter, he couldn't look at this matter from my standpoint at all, but he was not wrong, although Fang Yuan and I had been friends for nearly ten years, but we were not the same kind of people, so our lives were very different, at this time I figured out why Fang Yuan and I graduated from the same university, but after graduation, we were living on different tracks.

After a long time, I said to Fang Yuan, "I'll sit down for a while, I'll figure this out myself." ”

Fang Yuan nodded, and then admonished: "I don't know what you think about this promotion plan yet, let's talk separately later." ”

"Okay." I answered.

Fang Yuan took out another cigarette from the cigarette case and handed it to me and said, "Go to the smoking room to smoke, pay attention to the influence in the company." ”

I took the cigarette from Fang Yuan's hand and looked at him a little numbly......

Fang Yuan patted me on the shoulder, then turned to leave, my fingers spun the cigarette rapidly, but it became even more numb.

……

At noon, Fang Yuan and I had lunch in the company's restaurant, and the two of us chose a relatively quiet corner and sat down, without directly chatting about the promotion plan being prepared.

Fang Yuan said to me: "Yan Yan is free tonight, let her cook a few dishes, come to my house, let's have a few drinks." ”

"Forget it today, I'm going to move in the evening."

"Haven't you moved yet?" Fang Yuan asked in some surprise.

"No, didn't you just find a suitable house, and I was busy some time ago!"

Fang Yuan nodded, and after a short silence, he said, "Zhaoyang, I didn't say you, you are also the age when you should start a family now, if you can be down-to-earth, hurry up and settle down." ”

I asked Fang Yuan seriously: "You said that we have also graduated for so many years, classmates and friends should be stable, and those who shouldn't be stable are also trying to stabilize themselves, why do I live like I'm living in an illusion?" ”

Fang Yuan replied without thinking about it, "It's because you've lived too much of your ego over the years, but your ego has a strong idealism, Zhaoyang, you must know that no matter how delicate the castle is piled up with sand on the beach, if a Lang hits you, your castle will collapse as soon as possible, and your pain and instability are the source of this!" ”

Fang Yuan's words made me very confused, I knew that the Lang he called was a heavy reality, and my pain came from my unwillingness to accept reality, so I would fantasize about the city in the sky, and the woman with long hair hanging down her shoulders waiting in the city.

Fang Yuan said to me again: "You really don't want to think about Zhuomei's high-level battles anymore, people always live in reality, of course, conscience must be there, but this matter is beyond the scope of simple conscience, if you measure this matter by conscience or human nature, and finally inform Mi Cai, then reality will immediately give you a resounding slap in the face, Zhaoyang, learn to respect reality, don't risk yourself!" ”

"Why did you get involved with this again?" I said to Fang Yuan with some dissatisfaction.

After a short silence, Fang Yuan sighed softly and said, "Because I know you, I'm worried about ......"

I don't speak, although Fang Yuan and I are not the same kind of people, but after nearly ten years of brothers, he does know me better than many people, if I don't measure this matter with humanity and conscience, then how can I be so tormented?

Fang Yuan continued to me in silence: "If Chen Jingming takes advantage of Zhuomei's infighting this time to give us two first-line brands of Baoli Department Store, with such a big credit, he will be almost 100% promoted to the position of vice president of the company, and you and I, as his henchmen, can be regarded as really gaining a firm foothold in this company, especially you Zhaoyang, this is a sublimation for your life, and your life will change qualitatively." ”

I lit a cigarette, took a heavy puff, raised my head and closed my eyes, and spit out all the smoke in my mouth as if venting, for the first time I felt that my belief that I had adhered to for decades was shaken, maybe I should really respect reality, I have reached the age of starting a family, and now I finally see the dawn of life, if it is extinguished with my own hands, the future life will struggle in the dark and dark.

"Tell us what you think of this promotion."

Fang Yuan's words temporarily pulled me out of the quagmire of struggle, and I finally nodded, ready to talk to Fang Yuan about my thoughts on this promotion plan.
