Chapter 31: Deserted and Fleeing
Before getting off work in the evening, Zhong Shan was rushing to write a character newsletter in the ministry, Xue Manni came back in a hurry, put a cardboard box containing a large transformant gold steel toy on Zhong Shan's desk, and said: "Thank you Zhong Shan, for helping me complete the first draft task on the last day of this month, otherwise my bonus will be deducted this month, the key is that I have no face." This is for your son, boys love to play, and my son likes it so much. ”
Zhong Shan hurriedly excused himself and said: "A colleague of a department, a small matter of effort, why be so polite, I can't ask for this toy, let's leave it to your son to play!" ”
"My son already has several, this one was bought especially for your son, don't be polite to me!" Xue Manni didn't push the toy, but directly pushed Zhong Shan's arm, and looked at Zhong Shan sincerely with a pair of talking eyes.
Zhong Shan had no choice but to accept it and said, "Then I will thank Aunt Xue for my child Zhong Zixing." ”
Xue Manni said: "My son is in elementary school, many toys are no longer playing, and they take up space at home. ”
Zhong Shan promised verbally, but did not take it to heart.
The next morning, Zhong Shan was still the first to come to work in the department, first boiled water, wiped the floor with a mop, and was wiping the dust on the desk with a rag, the phone on Director Liu's desk suddenly rang, and took the phone, it was Xue Manni calling, she said on the other end of the phone: "Zhong Shan, my task this month is complete, give yourself a day off today, clean up the house, pack up a bunch of toys, I don't go out for a day, when are you okay to come and pick it up." My family lives in Room 202, Unit 3, No. 2, Dongfeng Street. ”
After lunch, Zhong Shan remembered the phone call in the morning, so he rode a bicycle and came to No. 2 Dongfeng Street according to the address given by Xue Manni, and when he knocked on the door of Room 202 of Unit 3, Zhong Shan was stunned, Xue Manni was wearing a pink nightgown, half-naked chest, pulling a pair of red cotton slippers, and her usually coiled long hair was naturally scattered, as if she had just gotten up from bed. In the living room, there is a white plastic bag containing a small pistol, a car and other toys.
Zhong Shan was a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry to disturb your nap." These toys were given to Zixing, right? I'll have to leave right away, and I'll have an interview in the afternoon. ”
A hint of disappointment slipped across Xue Manni's face, and she said, "It's the first time I've come to my house, I've come here, so I'll just sit for a while!" With that, he broke off a bunch of bananas from the fruit bowl on the coffee table in the living room, peeled the front end, and handed it to Zhong Shan. Then, he turned around and picked up the water cup, tore open the seal and poured it into the Nestle 3-in-1 instant coffee, took the boiling water on the water dispenser to make coffee, held the cup in his hand, and watched Zhongshan eat bananas with a pair of Danfeng eyes that seemed to be smiling.
The sound of people going upstairs outside the door, and the chatter and laughter of children. Zhong Shan stood in the middle of the living room, ate bananas in two bites, and even choked on his mouth because his mouth was too big, then put down the banana peel on the coffee table, refused to accept the coffee handed over by Xue Manni, lifted the plastic bag containing the toy and said "bye-bye", and opened the door and ran downstairs without looking back. Riding a bicycle and turning out of the alley, my heart is still beating wildly.
As an adult, Zhong Shan certainly understood Xue Manni's intention to invite him to his house. A "little me" in my heart jumped out and said timidly: "After removing her makeup, Xue Manni really looks a little like Wang Danyu, a senior sister in college, under the situation at that time, if I hugged her, kissed her, and even hugged her to bed, it should be a matter of course." This deserted escape broke a woman's heart. Immediately, another "big self" in my heart stood up and said confidently: "Have you ever thought about what will happen after doing that? How awkward should two people get along in the future in an office? What if her husband came back suddenly and bumped into him? What should Mie do when she finds out about this? ”
The two "I" in Zhong Shan's head jumped out to fight, the weak ones were tough, the powerful ones were powerful, no one was convinced, and the heads were going to explode. As soon as I looked up, I had already arrived downstairs at the newspaper office, and as soon as I put away the bicycle, I heard Director Jia of the Personnel Department shouting from behind: "Xiao Zhong, where did you run at noon?" I'm looking for you everywhere, so I'll go upstairs to my office and have something to discuss with you. ”
