Chapter Twenty-Four: Lost Love
After eating the buns, the diving bird quickly forgot about it, because he was in a meeting all morning, and it was already lunch time after the long meeting, and just after lunch, he received a notice that the leader of the head office was coming, and everyone gathered in the conference room, and then the meeting was held, and one would last intermittently until dusk. At the end of the day, the diving bird felt groggy, and when she walked out of the conference room, the whole office was quiet, and she passed by the front desk and saw her sitting there unusually quiet, and the irrelevant people were off work, and she had to wait for the door to close. She saw him and said, "Finished the meeting?" ”
The diving bird smacked and didn't say anything. Just go back to your office. When the diving bird was pushing the cart and preparing to leave the company, she saw that she also happened to walk out of the building, she didn't see him, holding an umbrella, silently walking in front. The diving bird looked at her back like this, and suddenly felt as if she was in love.
Once a person feels that they are in love, the whole person will feel different, and the cerebral cortex will secrete a certain chemical that will make you start to enter a state of euphoria. The diving bird felt that he was suddenly full of fun and more importantly full of anticipation for going to work. I was expecting to see that familiar figure when I walked through the door.
He had a magical affection for this figure, as if they were already a family, and in this company, they had drawn a boundary for themselves, and the two of them belonged within this boundary, keeping others out.
This invisible boundary is like a magical net, which begins to tighten and close, slowly bringing each other closer to each other, and the two people have an inexplicable tacit understanding even if they look at each other.
Leng Qinghe will bring breakfast to the diving birds every day.
Usually when the diving bird goes to the front desk to check in, she silently puts the breakfast in front of him, and he doesn't say much, picks up the breakfast and smiles at her, or squeezes a weird tone and goes back to his office. It's great to be able to eat hot breakfast and sweet soy milk, and more importantly, there is someone who cares about him in this foreign country, and he feels very hot inside.
For Leng Qinghe, it is very satisfying to see him pass in front of her in a chic manner every day, and if he can chat with herself, she can be happy all morning. If he suddenly doesn't enter the company today, or goes to the sales office, or if she doesn't know about the situation, she will be a little distracted, and she will sit there with a heart and mind.
Although neither of them pierced this layer of paper, the sprout of love has slowly grown and grown, which is something that they themselves know cannot hide.
Although the diving bird is reluctant to fall in love in a foreign place, in his opinion, this place will have to leave sooner or later, he belongs to the magic capital, not to this remote Huaibei town, no matter how good the girl here is, it will not be his home. This strong sense of self-affirmation makes the diving bird suppress its desires and thirst for love from a rational level.
Although he knew that he was lonely and wanted a girl to accompany him, he tried to control all his demons.
On the other hand, the attachment to butterflies also forces herself not to fall in love with other women other than her. He has been in this kind of attachment for so many years, and he can't easily allow himself to cheat mentally. He always felt that he belonged to her and would not belong to any woman. Now, they are only separated for a short time, and one day they will be together. This thought of self-soothing once stubbornly occupied the whole heart. But time slowly divides and corrodes everything, including his love motto.
Nothing will change.
He was horrified to find that his enthusiasm for butterflies had been waning lately. He rarely goes to see butterflies' QQ, all he thinks about is Leng Qinghe's cute and a little cute little face, when he lies down and reads a novel, he suddenly thinks, what kind of breakfast will she bring to herself tomorrow?
When I think about it, I hope it will become the next day soon.
He bought himself a lot of clothes online, and now he takes a compulsory course every night. He would think, would she feel cool in this outfit?
Of course he was cool, and in Leng Qinghe's eyes, he was simply cool. What she was most fascinated by was his cold smile, and then he walked past her like a typhoon with his head tilted. Although he rarely took the initiative to talk to her, his eyes had become deeper, and his expression was completely different.
She could feel it, and every time she saw him, her heart beat faster, as if there was a fawn running inside.
Love is a wonderful thing, and the day before nothing may have happened, but the next day it seems that a lot has happened. Although they didn't talk much, there was undoubtedly more eye contact, and there was also a certain tacit understanding and spirit.
The diving bird became deeper. He deliberately avoided this sudden love, and sometimes deliberately took a detour, not wanting to pass through the front desk. He forced himself not to see her more, lest he be distracted. But the more this happened, the deeper the desire to see her.
Sometimes the whole morning or afternoon is tormented by this matter, and it is suddenly forgotten unless it is too busy.
He was very busy these days, because the head of the head office had been inspecting a new project with them, and as the head of the planning department, he was always ready to revise the plan. Although he is not an important person, but every time he has a meeting, he has to be present to attend, make all kinds of records, almost every meeting has to revise the plan, as for when the plan can be finalized, he does not know, it depends on the leadership of the head office, for which he is also busy like a top.
For a whole month, he felt that he almost only had to go to work, but he didn't have a fixed time to leave work. Every time he left work, the office was already empty, and other inconsequential people were already out of work.
Without the usual noise, the office shrouded in darkness looks cold and gloomy. Once, he saw a rat brazenly coming out to look for food. Hop from table to table, carefully searching for food. Naturally, there is a lot of food in the office, especially the girls, who always have delicious snacks stored in the drawers.
As soon as he stomped his foot, the mouse fled in a panic, he walked quickly to the front desk wearing a headset, Leng Qinghe raised his tired eyes under the light, looked at him, and whispered: "Can you get off work?" ”
He smiled silently and said, "Let's go." ”
Now the only person who accompanies him every day is Leng Qinghe. She was in charge of closing the door, so naturally she had to wait for him to leave, and then they walked together every day. Riding the elevator downstairs together, the diving bird always listens to the music in the headset, his eyes are raised high, and he always seems to look at the top of the elevator, where it seems to be the stage where the music comes from ethereal. He occupies one corner of the elevator, and the other corner is Leng Qinghe, and she stares blankly at the changing numbers on the elevator screen.
