Since the output value exceeded 2 million for the first time, I had to say something, so I discussed with my boss and decided to give everyone a small bonus. The company's finances are extremely secretive, and the cashier will "convey" any inside information as soon as possible, and she is the company's rumor release center. Sometimes it's okay if the company doesn't raise wages and don't pay bonuses, and everyone has opinions because Chinese like to compare.

I and the managers of each department determined the amount of bonuses for each manager one by one, approved by the boss, and I personally sent it to the managers of each department, and the manager personally issued it, and implemented a confidential signature, and the cashier only knew the total amount, and did not know how much each person sent, so as not to turn a good thing into a bad thing, and a total of more than 4,000 yuan. Everyone got a bonus ranging from 50 to 200 yuan, and the year-end bonus in the previous year was only 150 yuan, so everyone was very happy.

I saw that the weather was still relatively hot, and after discussing with Mr. Zhen, I installed an air conditioner for each of the department managers.

At this time, the company's employees are full of motivation.

After work, I can't stand it,

Coming out of the company, I went home, back to my house with the witch, I went upstairs alone, looking at the familiar furnishings in the room, the original sound of my giggling and the witch's false rebuke for disobedience, at this moment was replaced only by the ticking on the wall.

The qiē in the room is still so familiar, even though I haven't been back here for days. The clothes are washed and neatly arranged, which is the habit of witches.

The familiar smell at home has been lost for a long time.

The door was not closed, but in the past, it was always the witch who closed the door in the back that I had just approached, and straightened the shoes I had taken off.

It's still late in the evening, and the weather is overcast.

The ajar door reflected the light from the windows in the hallway, and he sat quietly on the sofa, staring at the door for a long time.

This shot is so familiar, it has appeared in my mind too many times.

Her sentence: Do you listen to it? It haunts my ears.

From morning to now, my cell phone has not rang except for the phone call from the company's employees. The phone is on, there is power, and it is not adjusted to vibrate.

It's true that there are no phone calls, not even text messages.

I took my phone out of my trouser pocket and glanced at it, and I threw it on the couch.

I don't know what happened to the witch, I've been worried about this all the time, or I'm worried about myself.

Maybe, all of a sudden, Lin Batian will suddenly bring someone to break in and beat me.

Perhaps, there will be a witch's mother who will call me and scold me for being a bloody dog.

But neither.

Deathly silence.

The rain began to fall again.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the balcony, I sat on a wicker chair.

Flower petals were scattered on the balcony, and his notebook was also packed into the witch's bag and hung on the wall next to it.

The windows were closed tightly.

It's still a bit stuffy, after all, I haven't opened the windows for several days.

I opened the window, and through the screen, a moist and gloomy air came to my face, mixed with a light rain that I couldn't see clearly, and it fell on my arm, cool and cool. I gave my upper body completely to the back of the wicker chair and lit a cigarette.

It's kind of a treat, I love it.

But before, witches were not allowed to do this, I was not allowed to wear leather shoes into the house, I was not allowed to change my clothes into the bedroom, I was not allowed to open the window to watch the rain, I was not allowed to take things without washing my hands, I was not allowed to smoke anywhere except the study, and I was not allowed to save the tea I had drunk until tomorrow to wash the cup.

Too much is not allowed in exchange for the neatness and cleanliness of the home, although every time it will be not very pleasant for these are not allowed, but after a long time it has become a good home habit.

The original no's allows seem so necessary now, that when I lie on the wicker chair without changing my clothes, I always feel as if there is something missing, or something more.

By the time I woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

I didn't expect to sleep for so long.

Outside the window, the rain had stopped, there was a little water under the street lamps, and the occasional car passed through quickly.

The door was still open, and it never closed.

On the sofa, there are already a lot of unread text messages on the phone.

It's Saori.

'What are you doing?' ’

'I'm angry that you ignore me. ’

There were also a few missed calls, which were also made by Saori.

The living room and balcony were a bit far away, and the wind was also in the opposite direction, so I didn't hear the phone ring. I ignored her, I looked at the dark sky, I was going to see the witch, or I would die.

I went to Xinhuang first, and the doorman told me that Mr. Lin had left, and I immediately drove to Lin Batian's villa.

The door was open, the servants opened the door for me, I drove in, Lin Batian's car was not at home, it seemed that he had not returned, there was no one in the garden, it was deserted, and the door was locked.

I drove into the way by the garden, parked the car, got out of the car, and walked towards the villa. On the sofa in the living room, Lin Xi sat there alone, quietly in a daze, and from time to time, the sound of sobbing between her noses could be heard.

I walked in, and she saw me, and I didn't know if I should sit down or just stand there. I chose to sit across from her, but I didn't know what to say. The two of them remained silent, and I knew I had to say something, but. It's wrong to say one sentence, it's wrong to say a hundred sentences, it's wrong to say ten thousand words, I don't know what to say.

After thinking about it for a long time, I looked at her haggard face and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

"Go back!" For a long time, the witch's voice was a little crisp.

I looked up at her with a blank look to confirm what she had just said.

"I'll call you if there's something, you can go back." The witch didn't look at me, nor did she repeat it, but only added it succinctly.

I don't know if I should listen to the witch or not.

Simply, I'd better go, because the expression on her face is beyond doubt, she is a relatively tough person at this time, and I have learned her temperament.

The moment I closed the car door, her cries came from the villa.

I collapsed in the car seat.

At this moment, I didn't dare to call the witch, even though I had typed her number into the screen many times and deleted it, typed it again, and deleted it again.

I'm afraid that she won't answer, and I'm afraid that she will turn off her phone. I can only send her a text message: Can we have a good talk?

Await.

Silent and painful waiting.

Finally, after a long ten minutes, the text message rang. 'Nope'

A simple word, nothing else.

This is the witch's reply.

Is she willing to accept the accumulation of emotions for many years? She can't bear to give up like this?

Although, in the current situation, it seems that the witch and I have almost no possibility. For his true feelings, he also knows that the unsolvable problems that have long been secular are about to be exhausted, and the two people who love each other can't walk together, they can only look at each other from a distance like a Milky Way Cowherd and Weaver Girl, or sneakily can't see the light, which the witch doesn't want, let alone what I want.

Although it has been said many times, this feeling, when it should not come, but when it should not come, quietly rooted in our hearts, how many such feelings in the world are like those children who should not come to the world, and grow up in the corners inside and outside the besieged city.

I want to cry without tears.

I left in a mess, and it was another night.

Except for the LCD screen, there was not a single light turned on in the room.

Aside from the window where you talk to the witch, there are no other programs running on the screen.

Gray avatar, red text.

and Lin Huaxi picked up that sexual signature: it hurts.

The next day, I waited until the afternoon, but there was still no phone from Lin Xi, and I wanted to call to ask her how she was, but she was always busy, no one answered the phone in the office, the mobile phone couldn't get through, and I didn't know what was going on.

Mom's call came, of course, because she was concerned about what was going on with us.

"Where are you?" Mom was very polite, and her tone was completely revealed.

"At home." I threw myself the couch, feeling weak.

"What about Lin Xi?"

"She was at her house and didn't come back."

"Then why did you get back? Something so big happened, why did you kid hide or what? How long can you hide? "Mom didn't allow me to interject, and a long list of reprimanding questions reached my ears through the earpiece.

"She asked me to come back."

"She asked you to come back?" Mom didn't seem to be scratching her head and surprised.

"Yes."

"Strange! Got yourself back? Mom repeated. No one in her house? Where have they gone? ”

"How do I know?"

"You didn't call and ask?!"

"I called, I didn't get through, and no one answered!"

"It's weird." Mom muttered to herself. "Then you won't call your father-in-law and ask." Mom didn't finish halfway through her words, and she seemed to realize that something was wrong.

"How do I fight? You don't know how much people hate me? I retorted weakly.

"You drive to their house to see, what's going on with her alone in their house? You bastard boy too, you will come back if they ask you to come back? It's really stupid to go home, go admit your mistake, and tell the family to stop messing around in the future, I'm really angry with you, you bastard boy! "Mom's anger doesn't come to one place.

"There was something in the unit, and the leader called me back, and it was just in time for a meeting, so I came back, and it was a coincidence!" I explained.

"What about the holiday, what meeting are you having? Such an adult who lies and farts all day long! "Mom didn't believe my explanation.

"About the adjustment of the unit, the leader came to talk to me! Work is also busy. "So, I'll explain it to her directly.

"Go and see, I'm not at ease!" Mom commanded.

"I'm going to go, I'll go!"

"Go back and call home! Remember to take away your rotten temper, don't poke anything out again, you won't be angry with me, you will be uncomfortable with me! Throwing these few words, my mother hung up the phone.

The sun was blazing the floor, and downstairs in the shade, the grandparents were watching their grandchildren and granddaughters, strollers and toys scattered all over the floor. Slowly, I drove carefully past them.

Although the place where I live is not rural, most of these old people are from the countryside to let their children pick up to see their children, so they still retain the habit of chatting with the people around them, or during the holidays, naturally a lot of children downstairs get together, those old women and grandmothers also rarely have such a time to communicate with each other, and most of the chats are about sons and daughters-in-law, so it doesn't take long to get acquainted. Although this community is large, there are also many people who stay in the city, so the fathers in the countryside are very proud of their children to be able to go out of the countryside and take root in the city, and they may be looking forward to this in their lives, although they themselves have to put down their farm work in the field or family affairs to help their children take care of their children in this city with cement buildings, to endure the kind of living habits that are completely unadaptable, without neighbors to take care of each other. There is no fresh air in the countryside, no villagers to talk to, and even the daughter-in-law's words that are not soft or hard, but they still come, not only for the satisfaction of holding their grandchildren, but also the most important thing is probably the envious eyes of the villagers in their hometown.

From the car window, I smiled politely at them, after all, these are elders, and my own daughters sometimes play with them, and even let them see them a few times, and they are all very familiar.

I pretended not to hear the inquiries they were accustomed to or cared about, and walked away with the gas pedal.

They were asking my wife, after all, they hadn't seen us appear in this neighborhood for nearly a month, not that they hadn't heard it, but they felt that no matter how I answered at this time, they felt a little disobedient, after all, in their eyes, we were a very happy couple.

I don't want them to know a lot of things because I don't want to hear their words of regret. Maybe I should call Lin Xi first, although I may not be able to get through.

Still can't get through.

I don't know what I should say after this phone is connected, if it's just a simple inquiry and greeting, I'm afraid it will be over in two sentences, but I can't think of what kind of language to use to prevaricate my mistakes.

The car slowly wandered on the road, deliberately not driving fast. Faintly, I was a little scared to go there. It's not a long way, and it's almost there. Because of the hot weather, there was no one on the street.

The door was locked, and it was locked from the outside.

This has never been the case in my memory, this is a villa, the door is locked inside, why is it locked outside? This was an unexpected situation. After getting out of the car, I hesitated for a long time and pressed Lin Batian's mobile phone.

Unable to connect.

Maybe something happened at home, and there was a faint bad omen.

Dig out the phone number of the witch's uncle.

"Where are you?" No more politeness, I asked.

"Where are you?" A smell of gunpowder.

"I'm looking for Lin Xi, why is the door locked here?" didn't dare to accept her moves, and her heart was weak. So, the sound is lowered.

"Are you too embarrassed to come?" After a long day of silence, suddenly some harsh voices came out of the microphone.

"What's wrong?" After saying it, I regretted it a little, which was tantamount to slapping myself. "I mean, what's going on at home? The phone didn't work. ”

"Are you too embarrassed to ask? It's all your fault! Feng Yong lowered his voice, probably someone who was inconvenient next to him. Our company, come here. ”

Immediately, he hung up.

Drive back to the city.

It's time to get off work, and there are more vehicles on the road, perhaps because I am always thinking about things in my heart, so my attention is not so concentrated, and I accidentally ran a red light.

This year, the traffic police uncle is amazing, and he was stopped and fined.

When I arrived at Xinhuang, it was almost dark.

When I arrived at a certain office of Emperor Xin, I didn't see Feng Yong, but I saw Zihan standing by the window, and Lin Xi was sitting in the corner on the side.

The sound of pushing the door made Zihan turn his head violently.

I looked up and down seven or eight times.

"My great Mr. Yin!" Zihan screamed angrily. "Can you really do it?"

I didn't know what to do, how to answer this conversation, so I didn't make a sound, and stood quietly by the door.

Zi Han came over and circled around me.

"You're coming empty-handed, huh?" Zihan put his hand professionally in the pocket of his coat, and took out a look of disappointment and sarcasm.

She's usually like this, and if I'm nothing, she won't say anything about me, and she's very submissive. When something goes wrong with me, she likes to tease me, and she has a very good mouth.

"And what would you like to eat?" I also realized that I should get something to gag her mouth, although it was basically useless.

"You don't know it's time to eat now? Your wife hasn't eaten for a day, and I don't know how to call and ask, I fool around with that Sha weaving every day, I have long said that people are not serious people, don't look at people all day long like dogs, in fact, they are full of male thieves and prostitutes. Her mouth was like a machine cannon.

"Zihan!" Lin Xi couldn't seem to listen anymore on the side, and scolded her.

"Mr. Lin! When is it, and you are still protecting him? ”

I didn't know what to say, so I found a seat nearby and sat down, habitually taking out a lighter and playing with it in my hand.

"No smoking!" It's still Zihan.

"I didn't smoke it, I played with a lighter!" I explained, taking a look at Zihan's beautiful but somewhat hideous face.

"I'm too lazy to talk about you!" Zihan glanced at me.

Zihan can see it? I thought to myself.

"I said Mr. Yin!" Zihan changed his tone, a little serious. "You said you. I don't understand you, you say that Saori is that good? If you want to learn that everyone else is fluttering with colorful flags outside, and the red flag at home is not falling, you are good. Speaking of this, the son was stuck, and seemed to realize that his remarks were a little unobtrusive.

I want to laugh, but I'm embarrassed to laugh, or I'll get into more trouble.

"Mr. Lin can't squeeze out much time except that he is a little busy when he doesn't go to work, which is worse than others? What is Saori? Like me, it's the one that came out. I'm not worthy of you, and neither is she, why don't you like Mr. Lin? Do you have to hang out with that woman? ”

"Zihan, don't say it! Go back, all of you! Lin Xi said.

The original reprimand came to an abrupt end at this moment, and all three of them sat on their stools, each thinking about their own thoughts.

I stood up and walked to Lin Xi's side.

Her phone was on the table next to it, and I picked it up and looked at it.

In airplane mode, it's no wonder you can't get through.

"Let's go eat first!" Putting back the phone, I sat next to Lin Xi.

The witch ignored me and turned her head to look out the window, and through the mirror of the windowpane, I saw that the witch's eyes were red and she began to sob.

It can be seen that she has no usual dress today, and even her hair is a little messy, maybe she didn't sleep at all last night.

"Yin Ran is here?" With the sound of the door being slammed, the witch uncle walked in.

"Ahh Uncle. "For a moment I hadn't adjusted to that embarrassment and thoughts.

Uncle and Zihan went out, perhaps, they were deliberately providing a space and opportunity for me and the witch, I understand it so.

When it came time for the two of them to face, they didn't know what to say.

It stands to reason that she should admit her mistakes, but her personality makes this process difficult and complicated.

Now it seems that all the results are bolted to my mouth.

For a long time, under heavy pressure, I have been thinking about marriage in the dark, but considering the future of my love with Lin Xi, I have not given myself a final decision, and I have too many things to worry about, so I am so consumed by myself, and any woman is completely disappointed in me.

But if you don't leave, I don't dare to imagine such a big rift and pressure between us, how to live with Lin Xi in the future, this is also a problem. Although in the words of the witch, it is no longer possible, but the witch has taken root in my heart, and it is impossible to forget it, and it is impossible in this life.

The problem in front of me is like an opportunity for me now, an opportunity with thorns.

If I want to reconcile, I have to start pursuing Lin Xi again, the process is bumpy, and I don't know whether it will be successful or not. If I succeed, I still need to live that stressful day, like several mountains pressing on me, making me unable to move.

Give up, then the result is that after a lot of noise and a lot of noise, each finally looks for its own track. It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. forced me to forget about Lin Xi, throw away all the things about her, including memories and fantasies, and live alone.

To put it bluntly, I prefer the former, and the pressure is so unreasonable that I still can't do without her. Without her, I was already a walking corpse, and because of this, I didn't say a word for about half an hour since the witch uncle and Zihan went out, just sat quietly on the chair next to me, and didn't even move my legs except for smoking.

Perhaps, Lin Xi was waiting for me to apologize or admit my mistakes, I didn't say a word for more than half an hour, and her psychology seemed to understand something, she didn't say a word, just quietly looked at the clock on the wall.
