004 Return to peace
I put all my energy into my work, and the project of Acre Company was in line with the standard.
A week later, they unexpectedly got the notice of winning the bid, Zheng Haitao and a few of them suddenly cheered in the office, and some people shouted to go out to celebrate.
I looked at their sincerely happy faces, and I was in a trance for a moment. More than a year ago, it was also the announcement of the winning bid of the Acre company, and everyone was so happy, that night I seemed to have taken this group of children to the bar.
The two scenes are so similar, only there is no one who can quietly celebrate with me.
"Sister Lin, are we going to eat or sing at night?" Zheng Haitao came to petition for the people.
"Eat first and then sing, and if you have the energy to go to the bar and drink, I'll pay the bill after you." I tried to laugh and make my expression look natural.
"Okay, where are we going? Everyone is waiting. Zheng Haitao asked again.
"Houhai bar, Quanjude finished eating roast duck, there is a Melody nearby, and then find a bar for you all to have a good time." I thought about it.
"Sister Lin, you're so good!" Zheng Haitao's eyebrows danced, and he couldn't wait to hug me to express his joy. But when he stretched out his hand, he took it back, wiped it on his pocket, and said, "I'll go and inform everyone, and then I'll book a seat at once." ”
The company is an iron-clad battalion, and employees are flowing soldiers. From its inception to the present, the staff has been relatively stable, and several new faces have entered during this time. One thing that hasn't changed, though, is that these children have young faces.
"Sister Lin, it's done. Do you want to bring your kids along? "Zheng Haitao probably knows some of the situation on my side, and he will come over to ask after the arrangement.
"No need, they have a look, I can go back late in the evening, you have a good time tonight, it can be regarded as a beautiful end to this work." After tomorrow, it is estimated that everyone will be busier. "I'm facing the same thing, but I'm not in the same state of mind.
Houhai is still prosperous, and as soon as night falls, it has been decorated with all kinds of lights.
Eating and singing...... I was undisturbed by these children, watching them smile and be happy, and I felt that the world was far away from me. But I can't be hypocritical to say that I am detached from things. I haven't changed, I'm still the same person who loves money like my life, but my mood is obviously different.
Coincidentally, the bar Zheng Haitao booked happened to be the one last time, we found a big table and sat down, and then called the waiter to order drinks.
By the time the drinks came up, seven of the eleven people had already run onto the dance floor, and Zheng Haitao was one of the remaining four.
"Sister Lin, do you want to dance, I remember that you danced quite well." Zheng Haitao asked.
"I'm old arms and legs, I can't stand this toss, you go down to play, I'm ready to go back." I looked at the time and saw that it was already half past twelve in the evening, "It's not early, you go on, the card is for you." I went first, and the child was already sent home. ”
"Well, well, I'll send you." Zheng Haitao picked up my bag first.
"No, I'll just go back by myself, it's not too far from here." I hurriedly took the bag and recommended it.
"I'll send you, it's so late, there are a lot of alleys in this area that are not equipped with street lights." Zheng Haitao said and stood up.
I recommended it in every possible way, but he stubbornly followed me.
After helplessness, I had to acquiesce to the fact that he sent me, he walked beside me for a while, and suddenly asked, "Sister Lin, do you smoke?" ”
I thought about it, shook my head, and said, "No, but I don't mind if you smoke." ”
He took out the cigarette from his pocket and was silent for a while before he said again: "Sister Lin, you have lost a lot of weight now." ”
Listening to his speechlessness, I couldn't stop, took a step back, and saw something hidden in his eyes through the street lamp, so I asked, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”
"No, no, where do you live?" He looked up at the road.
I saw that he deliberately avoided and refused to speak, and it was not good to continue to ask, so I pointed to the alley in front of me and said, "Go to the head and turn right for more than 100 meters." ”
Then he didn't speak, and when he sent me to the gate of the hospital, he handed me his handbag and said, "Then I'll go back first." Then he turned and walked away.
His actions confused me a little, and after thinking about it, I couldn't guess what he was thinking, so I shook my head and turned to go home.
The so-called "frustrated in love, proud in the casino" is roughly true, after I became a single state, business is getting smoother and smoother. The bottom line that I used to think I had to keep seems to be becoming blurred, and some things that I used to think were unacceptable now feel much more normal.
People have been in society for a long time, and the edges and corners will become more and more rounded, like pebbles that have been tempered by thousands of water flows, and the whole body is close to perfection.
A year has passed quickly, and it seems that everything is back on track.
It's just that one of the most important people in my life is missing. This person's loss is different from Chu Yi's back then, his departure seems to have taken away my heart, I have no other characteristics except for laughing, eating, and living a normal life.
When I was first discharged from the hospital, the assumption that Shen Mo gave me seemed to be false.
For a year, in addition to work, I put all my energy on finding evidence that He Liancheng was still alive, but there was no progress at all.
Slowly, I also lost my heart, maybe it was just a means for Shen Mo to let me regain my life*.
In business, Liu Tian and Shen Mo also gave me a lot of help, and I accepted it all. I'm in this state, I'm not afraid of rumors, I'm not afraid of gossip, why do I have to push things that can make money out?
He Liancheng's maternal grandfather's family seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no news in China.
My own relationships abroad are only with my uncle and eldest cousin, but they are just begging for the ordinaryness of life there, and they have no chance to get such news.
I'm dead set on my three children as the focus of my life.
"Le Yi, I'm going to the United States, do you want to accompany me?" Shen Mo said on the phone.
"Is it tourism? Can I consider taking my kids out for a fun trip, and you are responsible for the round-trip air ticket and the whole journey to a five-star hotel? I asked with a smile.
"There is a business, and the person who is going to cooperate with him has some business dealings with his grandfather's family, don't you want to go and see it?" He asked with a smile.
"I don't want to." I outright refuse.
Over the past year, I've heard a lot of such news. In the beginning, I would quickly check any wind and grass, and later found out that it was all related to the eight poles. Now, I also have deep doubts about Shen Mo's words.
Last time, in order to let me help, he used the news that he suspected that he was connected to help me for more than ten days, but this time the door is gone.
"Are you sure you won't go? Forget it, missing it can only mean that you have no fate. Shen Mo's tone conveyed a little regret.
"I'm sure I'm not going." I hung up.
I don't want to repeat this pointless thing after I finally calm down, if He Liancheng is still alive, then he will definitely come to me as long as the opportunity is right. If he hadn't come to me, it would have only meant one thing, either he was really out of this world, or the right opportunity.
Shen Mo called again, told me the departure time and flight frequency, and finally said, you think about it again, if you want to go with me, notify me in time, I have booked the ticket first.
His grinning tone made me think that this must be a farce, and I decided not to go.
On the weekend, I came out of the company early to pick up my three children for the weekend, and when I came to the kindergarten gate, Shen Mo's phone came in again, and he said, "Are you going?" Tonight's plane, the last one to inform you. However, even if you want to go, you won't have time to get a visa. After saying that, he laughed and said in an arrogant tone.
I'm really weird, Shen Mo seems to be afraid that he won't kill me, but whenever he has the opportunity, he will stimulate me with He Liancheng's things. In the beginning, I was really angry with him almost every time, and I could even be sad for a few days, and I couldn't wait to wipe my tears out of thin air when I thought of these three words.
I don't know if my nerves become stronger every day when I am stimulated, but now I can face it calmly no matter what he says.
But this time, as soon as he finished speaking, I subconsciously looked at the small bag on the passenger seat, I have already applied for a business visa to the United States, and I have it with me, and I also remember the date of his departure, but I deliberately came to pick up the child to make a pretend to be calm.
"Think about it, it's too late to come to the airport now." Shen Mo said again over there.
"No, no." I hung up the phone and parked the car on the side of the road.
It's three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is still hanging in the sky, there are few pedestrians on the road, the cars are driving fast, and there is a rare weather without gambling cars!
My hand was on the steering wheel, and it wasn't until my palms were sweaty that I suddenly looked up and made up my mind. Go, believe in the news of chasing the wind and shadows again!
In fact, I have already made a decision in my heart, but I am not willing to compromise with the other self so quickly.
I quickly called Chu Yi, called He Zelin, arranged a weekend for my three children, and then turned the car around and went straight to the airport.
As soon as I parked the car, Shen Mo's call came in again, and he asked with a smile, "Have you arrived?" The highway seems to be stuck in traffic now. ”
"You guessed it, I'm here, I'll look for you wherever you are." I pulled the handbrake, opened the door and walked out.
"I know you can't hold it." Shen Mo smiled even more happily.
He sued me for his position and then closed the line.
It's not that I don't want to go out, but every step I take can think of the moment I am with him, and the feeling of time and things make me feel like I am dreaming, as if he will suddenly appear in a scene in my life in just one moment.
