When I opened my eyes, I didn't know where I was for a few seconds, and it took me a moment to remember what was going on. The car was parked on the side of the road not far from my house, and I looked at the cab, which was already empty. Xu Yijing was still asleep in the back seat, I sat up straight in a daze, and then saw Lin Jiangnan standing outside the car through the front windshield.

He stood motionless in the sun and the cold wind, staring at the traffic like a statue. I watched him for a moment, and it felt like I was watching a literary film with few words, no narration and no music, but every detail in the shot seemed to have a metaphor.

I don't understand.

After about half a minute, he suddenly turned his head to look at me. Maybe he didn't see me at all, but I turned my head away a little weakly, afraid that the other party would see my prying eyes. I turned around and woke up Xu Yijing, and Lin Jiangnan also opened the car door and sat in, with a cold body.

I didn't know what I was like now, so I grabbed my hair with my fingers, hoping that I could be messy and slouchy. "I'm sorry." I said, "I fell asleep without paying attention." ”

"It's fine." He rubbed his hands, took the car keys out of his pocket and handed them to me, "I'll go first." With that, he was ready to open the door.

"The ......," I stopped him, but when he looked back at me, I didn't know why I stopped him, so I had to smile after a moment, "Thank you." ”

He seemed a little inexplicable, with a slight smile in his eyes, "Why are you so polite?" ”

When Lin Jiangnan left, Xu Yijing got up from the back seat, rubbed her fingers in her hair, and muttered: "I tell you, if I were the queen, I would kill him and let him see it all when he had no image!" ”

After saying that, she fell headlong again, "I still want to sleep ......"

Shh I despise her with my soul. You have to drink this amount of alcohol!

When I went to work on Monday, I still had the sequelae of exercise, my whole body was sore, and I walked like I was doing Tai Chi. Rao is like this, I still rubbed to Yan Hua's side and told her the good news that Lin Jiangnan was single.

But Yanhua was not as excited as before, he pulled the mouse with low interest, stared at the design draft on the screen, and said to me: "Forget it, I am also faint, and I think about it very unreliable later." ”

"Why is it unreliable?" I asked her.

She turned her head and said to me very seriously: "I am 27 years old this year, and now I am just a little designer, and my salary is only enough to support myself, and I don't have a house or a car in Beijing." As for him, he's just a commissioner now, and his salary is about the same as mine, and he's not from Beijing, right? ”

"No, he's from Xi'an." I say.

"yes, he definitely doesn't have a car or a house."

"He has a car."

"What's the use of having a car, compared to a house, a car is equal to no money." Yan Hua pursed his lips, "Not to mention that he can't look down on me, even if he is blind, the two of us are together, how do you say we can gain a foothold here?" It costs millions to buy a small house, and if the two of us can make a down payment, the mortgage will exhaust us to death. Do we want to have children? What do you want your child to raise? What should I do with my account? Who comes to see the children? These are all very real problems. ”

"I don't think that's like your mother's mouth." I laughed.

"When you are old, you will know that the words of your elders have their own truth." Yan Hua returned his gaze to the screen, "Love, love, handsome, these are good, but they shouldn't be eaten." ”

"And what kind of one are you looking for?" I asked her a little cautiously.

She was silent for a moment, her eyes only reflected in the light reflected in the screen, and she said in a gloomy tone, "What kind of am I looking for?" Which round got me wanted. ”

"So negative?" I sat down next to her, "Your mom called you over the weekend?" ”

Yan Hua nodded, "It will definitely be another tough battle when I go back for the New Year." She looked at me and smiled bitterly, "If I can't beat me, I may have to surrender and go back to my hometown." ”

"What are you doing back to your hometown? Do you still do design? ”

"What else do you design, my mother asked me to take the civil service or career editor." Yan Hua used the mouse to randomly check the pattern on the screen, and I don't know if I was talking to me or talking to myself, "In fact, going home also has the advantage of going home, don't worry about buying a house, the cost of living is also low, you can stay as much as you earn, and you can be filial piety by your parents' side." Right? ”

Right.

I couldn't say anything, so I had to get up and pat her on the shoulder, "There are pros and cons to any choice, you must think carefully about it anyway." ”

I got up and went back to the office, just as Lin Su came over and handed me a package in his hand, "Your courier." ”

"You're still a part-time courier." I quipped, took the box in my hand and looked at it, the shipping address on the courier list was a little familiar, it seemed to be from Orange Times.

Lin Su followed me into my office, "I went to the front desk to find my courier, and I didn't find mine and turned over you, so I brought it to you." It just so happens that I have something to tell you. She closed the door.

This action made me a little nervous.

Generally, this kind of thing that is said behind closed doors is a big thing, and at least it has to be the company's hot gossip, or it is layoffs, promotions, salary increases, etc., and survival is at stake.

"What's wrong?" I put the courier on the table and stared at Lin Xun, as if I could see through her and see what she was going to say next if I stared hard enough.

"Orange Times sent a draft contract, which is all routine content. But there's one thing I think I'm going to have to give you a shot. ”

"What's the matter?"

"That is, if the orange side requires it, or the project needs it, we will send a designer to the site." After she finished speaking, she was afraid that I would not be able to grasp the point, so she explained to me: "In other words, Cao Hui's side may ask you to go to work in Orange." ”

"Why?!" I raised the key.

Lin Su gestured to me not to get too excited, "This article is basically in the contract we signed, but we don't have any out-of-town projects now, and we haven't asked Party A to let the designer stay on site, so you may never know, because you are just a contract." ”

I looked at her in a daze, and my heart began to block, "Written in the contract?" ”

"Yes, it's written in the contract, and that's the regular term." Lin Su looked at me, his eyes were full of pity but also full of helplessness, "I can't do anything about this matter, so I thought about coming to tell you, maybe you can think about any countermeasures from the perspective of your design work." After saying that, she comforted me again, "Of course, I'm just a preventive shot, maybe the other party won't make this request, then it's okay." ”

I nodded abruptly, and then smiled wryly, "Okay, thank you, this matter ......" I didn't know what to say next, so I had to say, "Let's see when it's in front of you." ”

After Lin Su left, I sat for a long time, feeling a little irritable, annoyed that I was worried about this kind of every day! Originally, everything was fine, but as soon as Cao Hui appeared, he simply poured a basin of rancid water into my life, making my life exude a strange smell from time to time.

I took a deep breath and decided to learn from Xu Yijing and not worry about what hadn't happened yet. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the big deal is that the old lady will not wait! Although I am not a rich person, although tens of thousands of dollars make my flesh hurt and hurt, it is indeed not to the point where people can use this money to choke their fate.

No, no, no, I comfort myself.

There was the courier on the table, and I once again confirmed the sending address, which was Orange Time Company, and guessed what information Lin Jiangnan sent me. I pulled out the scissors to cut the tape on the seal, and inside the box was another box, wrapped in non-woven fabric, not a big size, and it felt like a gift. I removed the non-woven packaging, and it was a coffee-colored box with an LV logo printed on the lid.

What do you mean?

I was stunned, my mind was a little dazed for a moment, but my hand moved before my brain and opened the box. A cloth bag appeared inside the box, and when I opened the cloth bag, I pulled out a brand-new, black, long, engraved LV wallet.

My hands stopped, and so did my brain.

The purse was new and a little chilly, and I looked at it for a full minute before I came back to my senses and picked up my phone. I want to send a message to Lin Jiangnan to ask about the situation.

Before I finished editing my message, the office door rang twice, and then Li Yuanwei pushed the door in. I turned off the phone screen, put it aside, and smiled, "Something?" ”

"Yo, Mr. Su is busy? Excuse me. Li Yuanwei smiled, a little yin and yang.

"Mr. Li is here, how dare I be busy, sit for a while." I smiled and pointed to the couch. But he didn't go over, and as he slowly swayed to my desk, he said, "You can transfer the project to us." ”

"Island in the middle of the lake? Why? "I don't understand.

He smiled, "Ahem, what does the boss mean, you have to do your best to do the Orange Time project now, let's do this little job of shrimp peel." ”

I was embarrassed by what he said, and I smiled wryly and didn't answer. Because I can't take it, anyway, no matter what I say now, it's not right, even if I tell him sincerely that I want to give him the Orange Time project, he will think that I am cheap and good, and I am here to be a fool.

The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward, Li Yuanwei seemed to want to relieve it, walked up to my desk and asked me: "I heard that Cao is always your old classmate when I heard Orange?" ”

"Well, I don't know him well, though." I said without raising my eyelids, then picked up the phone and dialed Yan Hua, asking her to send the things from the island in the middle of the lake to Li Yuanwei. Yan Hua, the project of Lake Island, has been doing it for a long time, and he has made feelings, and he is a little reluctant to give it out, so he asked me why. I can't say much about Li Yuanwei here, so I just let her do it.

Putting down the phone, I saw that Li Yuanwei was looking through the LV wallet, I took the wallet from his hand and pushed it aside along with the verbose packaging.

"Good wallet, how much is it?"

"I don't know, I didn't buy it."

"Sent by my boyfriend? Off the list? ”

"No, I don't have a boyfriend." I was a little annoyed, put my hand on the mouse, and looked up at him: "Is there any other project to hand over besides the island in the middle of the lake?" ”

"It's gone." Li Yuanwei shrugged his shoulders stupidly, "You're busy, I'm leaving." ”

When he was out, I leaned back in my chair and sighed irritably. His eyes fell on the pile of packaging, and he remembered that the message he wanted to send to Lin Jiangnan had not been edited, so he picked up his mobile phone and continued to edit, and then sent it to Lin Jiangnan: "You sent me something for delivery?" ”

Lin Jiangnan sent a question mark face, and then replied to me, "No, what did you receive?" ”

No? Not Lin Jiangnan? Lin Jiangnan doesn't know? There is only one possibility left for the person who sent me the courier from Orange Time - Cao Hui.

I suddenly felt a kind of physiological discomfort, from Lin Xu talking about the contract to Li Yuanwei's gun and stick, the irritability and annoyance that I had saved all the way were suddenly ignited by this wallet, like a volcano erupting from my heart, with a thousand feet of flames, straight to the heavenly spirit cover.

I picked up the LV wallet, stuffed it into the box, threw the box into the delivery box, then opened the office door and rushed to the front desk.
