25. Taiping City – Personal space

In front of the mirror, Dongfang Xian tried on a pale green coat and pulled the corners of her clothes.

Looking at myself in the mirror, there are still flaws in the hue of the outer and inner tops. This is the third coat. Dongfang Xian is still not satisfied.

She took off her freshly put on, hung it back in the closet, and took out a rose-colored coat. Put it on and look at yourself in the mirror. This time, the color palette finally suited her wishes.

The waiter stood for an hour, and she didn't know why the chairman had to match his own clothes.

On weekdays, all the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the chairman have to be taken care of by others. Every time she wears clothes, she is dressed by the royal costume master.

Today, with a curiosity, the waiter kept his eyes wide open and watched the chairman dress alone.

For a full hour, the waiter did not blink, but he did not understand the chairman's intentions.

"Bring me a glass of boiled water." Dongfang Xian looked at herself in the mirror, "It's enough for me to be tired." It's been a long time since I've dressed up like this. ”

"Yes."

The waiter withdrew from the dressing room and quickly came back with a glass of water, "Chairman! Your water. The waiter handed over the water cup with both hands and stood beside Dongfang Xian with his hands down.

"The clothes and pants in the closet should have changed." Dongfang Xian took a sip and put the cup back into the waiter's hand, "The clothes and pants inside are at your disposal." Give you a day, and the day after tomorrow, before you change a batch of new clothes and pants. ”

"Yes!"

"Stand down!"

"Yes!"

The waiter left Dongfang Xian's main house and returned to the next hut.

Dongfang Xian returned to the living room, took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, poured a glass, and sat by the burning fire.

I took a sip of the wine in the glass. A sweet liquid flowed all over the body in an instant.

Dongfang Xian felt that she had drunk the elixir and jade liquid, fluttering like a fairy, and it seemed that a pair of bright wings had grown behind her back, soaring in the golden sky.

A few minutes later, the liquor was diluted with blood, and Dongfang Xian broke free from the intoxicated hallucination.

"Please play a piece of classical music." Dongfang Xian's voice was transmitted to the music player, and after it received the recognition voice, a leisurely and clear classical music sounded.

Dongfang Xian listened to the music, roasted the slow fire, and drank the wine.

She couldn't help but beat her left finger rhythmically on the chair with the beating notes, alternating her five fingers.

As if in a spacious concert hall, she stood in the center of the stage with a wooden stick in her hand, directing the crowd to play a symphony; The audience below was filled with people listening to the music with their full attention.

As soon as the song was over, Dongfang Xian's fingers couldn't stop at all. It wasn't until the loudspeaker burst into electronic music that she stopped typing.

She took a sip, and there was only a mouthful of wine left in her glass.

Putting down the cup and looking at the mirror-like wall, she stared at her chubby body and twisted her waist a few times.

"I'm in my fifties." Dongfang Xian touched her face with light makeup, "I'm not young anymore." For the sake of a career, there is very little time left to dress up personally. Since taking up the chairmanship, all the food, clothing, housing and transportation have to be taken care of by special personnel, and there is less free space. Tonight, they're all going to party, and I finally have time. ”

Dongfang Xian drank the last wine in the cup, not drunk, but had a great desire to drink another glass.

"It's been a long time since I've tasted good wine. How about a drunken break tonight? "On weekdays, they don't allow me to drink this or that, even at banquets and other gatherings, they only let me drink special water." When I was young, I was free and I drank whenever I wanted. Now, having become the chairman, many aspects are restricted. ”

Dongfang Xian poured another glass and sat back by the fire.

She held the cup up in front of her eyes, and through the glass and liquid, the light of the fire came to her face little by little. The cup was removed, and the light of the fire still fluttered above the stove. She raised her glass to her eyes again and watched the fireworks.

It lasted a few minutes, and her hands were sore, before she put down the cup.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

A phone rang, echoing through the empty living room.

"Hey!" Dongfang Xian was unwilling to answer the phone

"Hey! Hello Chairman! I'm white-red!" A deep voice came from the microphone.

"Oh! It turned out to be Mayor White. Dongfang Xian said lazily, "What's the matter with you?" ”

She couldn't remember herself, she didn't know when, for Bai Hong's phone call, her first thought was that he came to ask her for this and that again. Especially now, I was in a good mood to taste the wine, and I came to this call.

"Nothing." Bai Hong on the other end of the phone may have heard Dongfang Xian's tone, "Hmm! On this major holiday, I want you to be alone, and everyone else is at home, and it is impossible to accompany you. Just give you a call. ”

"You don't have to think about me." Dongfang Xian paused for a few seconds, "I'm a dignified co-chairman, and I can have whatever I want." ”

"I just wanted to greet you, nothing else." Bai Hong on the other end of the phone also hesitated, "Zhao Fen wants to talk to you for a few words......

Bai Hong waited for her to agree.

Dongfang Xian shook the wine in the cup, and the wine flowed for several rounds before she spoke: "No need, I want to be alone quietly." ”

"In short, we all hope that you will have a happy New Year on this holiday."

"Thank you!"

Hanging up the phone, Dongfang Xian was silent for a few minutes, the wine in the glass stopped flowing, and even the flame in the furnace remained in the same shape. The smart music player sensed her changing blood flow rate and turned it into a slow track.

"Why mention Zhao Fen? Abominable two. Dongfang Xian said to herself, "For this festival, I personally dressed, tasted the wine, and was bored." But what are your intentions? even mentioned Zhao Fen. Angry. ”

Dongfang Xian gulped a glass of wine and poured it to the brim.

Tonight, she's going to get drunk.

Her face gradually reddened, and her eyes became more misty.

"Alone, I've been drinking." She drank another glass and filled it again, "I'm drunk alone." Who can understand my heart? I gave up a lot for the chairmanship. Tonight, everyone was celebrating the holiday with their families, and I was drinking alone. None of those attendants and guards could talk to me. Hateful phone, hateful white-red. You're angry with me, aren't you? ”

Dongfang Xian held the wine glass, stepped steadily, and came to the balcony.

The night breeze blew her hair and coat fluttering. She brushed her messy hair.

There were five or six shadows in the waiter's room, and they were playing and playing; In the courtyard were five or six guards, patrolling and standing guard against guns; In the distance, the streets are brightly lit, and people celebrate and celebrate in different forms; In residential buildings, lights are turned up in every house, and adults and children, men and women, are reunited.

Dongfang Xian raised her wine glass in the wind, stretched it out to the air outside the balcony, and poured a few wines down.

"To my people!" Dongfang Xian drank it all, "I want to fly farther." ”

Perhaps she shouted too loudly, and the guards in the courtyard quickly lined up, neatly and uniformly, and saluted Dongfang Xian on the balcony one by one. The people in the waiter's house also came out and raised their glasses to her.

Dongfang Xian waved her hand, and a few tears flowed down the cold ground hole.
