32.The sun on the first day of 2016

It's the last day of 2015, and tomorrow will be the new year, and I'm wandering around the huge city aimlessly like a homeless homeless person. But fortunately, he was not alone, and there was someone who was willing to walk around with me, which made me feel grateful to him.

For the umpteenth time, I was grateful to him.

I have sent him so much gratitude, I'm afraid it's already inflationary and worthless in his place. So I decided to give him a New Year's gift.

We went to the mall, and while he was going to the bathroom, I quickly bought a scarf, no need to try it, anyway, he has white skin, and he can't look bad in any color.

But interestingly, he also came back from the bathroom with a bag in his hand, and we saw a little surprise and a little embarrassment in each other's eyes when we met in a narrow way. I looked at the size and fullness of the bag in his hand and asked tentatively, "Dear, you won't buy a scarf, will you?" ”

He raised his hand and touched his neck, then laughed and handed me the bag: "Happy New Year." ”

I also happily handed him the bag in my hand, "Happy New Year." ”

He said that he still remembered that time when I didn't wear a scarf in Nanluoguxiang, so he bought a scarf as a New Year's gift, and I said in my heart, just because I didn't wear it doesn't mean I didn't!

I gave him a blue scarf with wide stripes, and he gave me a yellow scarf in the bag, a warmer color than ginger, with no patterns and no decorations, very pure. I rarely have clothes of this bright color, and I am surprised that he would choose this color for me.

"Look at this color, it doesn't look like the sun you saw this morning." He said.

So I suddenly felt that this scarf was extraordinary.

I wore this scarf like I was wearing this morning's sun, warm and fearless. The two of us went to Wangfujing, and then walked along Chang'an Avenue to Tianyumen, and when midnight was approaching, I sent a message to Xu Yijing and my parents, wishing them a happy new year and saying that I love them.

Lin Jiangnan did not send any information to anyone. No one greeted him, and he did not greet anyone.

At that moment, I looked at the bustling lights and shadows in the city, and suddenly wondered, who are the two of us accompanying whom? I've just been lonely for two nights, and Lin Jiangnan has been lonely for a long time?

"Are you happy?" I asked him.

"It's fun."

"Then did you make a wish in Tanzhe Temple today?" I asked him again.

"Yes." He smiled slightly, "I hope you can go well in the new year." ”

Tsk, it's a waste, it's a promise with me!

"Let's go." I dragged him back in a different direction.

"Where are you going?"

"Go by car." My steps are vigorous and strong, firm and powerful. Lin Jiangnan followed me and asked me again, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go to Tanzhe Temple."

Yes, that's how sick I'm and how whimsical I'm doing. I wonder if the gods and Buddhas in the Pilu Pavilion will think when they see me, "Why are you again?" Why are you always there? Didn't you say you weren't a Buddhist? ”

But I am one of the sentient beings, and so is Lin Jiangnan.

The two of us ran to Mentougou again at night, drove up the mountain, this time I pointed to the east, and said to him: "Lin Jiangnan, look, it was the sun on the first day of 2016." ”

Will the sun also secretly say: Are you still finished?

If I have any more memories, maybe it will no longer be the sea of clouds on the top of the light, but on this bare wild mountain, Lin Jiangnan and I watched the sun rise on the last day of 2015 and welcomed the first ray of sunshine on the first day of 2016. I hope that this memory will never fade, will never be remembered by me with embarrassment, and will always be warm.

I earnestly worship the Buddha in the Pilu Pavilion, hoping that Lin Jiangnan will be happy and smooth in the new year. Lin Jiangnan asked me what I had made again, I smiled, pointed to Pilu Pavilion and said to him, "It's nothing, I just came back to hear the Buddha say 'okay'." ”

He smiled silently, not knowing what to guess about my wish, and when he was about to reach the gate of Tanzhe Temple, he stopped and asked me, "You say, will we come here again next year?" ”

"No problem! As long as we're friends, every year. I replied to him.

He didn't say anything more.

Xu Yijing returned home on the night of New Year's Day, I was lazy on the sofa watching TV as usual, she asked me how the past two days were, and I replied, "Very good." ”

The scarf that Lin Jiangnan gave me hangs on the hanger, like a ray of sunshine falling. So this night, the nightmare didn't bother me.

The New Year's Day holiday is actually very short, but in my feeling it is very long, because I haven't let go of day and night, and the real day is over as two days. On the second day of January, Xu Yijing and I went to the mall to shop, and at night we drank at the 'Zaixiang' bar in Nanluoguxiang.

The resident singer is not the same as when Lin Jiangnan and I came last time, and the band has changed, which has a lot less taste to talk about, and people have a lot less desire to talk. Regarding the matter of running to Tanzhe Temple twice at night with Lin Jiangnan, I didn't mention it to Xu Yijing, nor did I deliberately avoid it, but I still couldn't interject.

Because Shao Jie contacted Xu Yijing on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Xu Yijing's lover, who had been in love for six years, called her when she was busy coordinating the New Year's Eve event, saying that she wanted to talk to her. Xu Yijing said that he was not available.

Xu Yijing is really unavailable, but Shao Jie doesn't think so. After two or three phone calls Xu Yijing didn't answer, Shao Jie sent her a message.

'Xiaojing, there are many places where I haven't done enough in the past six years, you must be dissatisfied with me when you break up with me, I have thought a lot about it these days, reviewing the bits and pieces of the two of us over the years, there are joys, quarrels, and regrets. Maybe we can have a chance to talk about it, give me a chance, and give yourself a chance to give in the past six years, okay? ”

Xu Yijing showed me this message on his phone, and after I finished reading it, I also saw Xu Yijing's reply by the way, very simple two words: no.

I toast with Xu Yijing, go to him.

On the third day of the New Year's holiday, I was sleepy.

On the morning of the fourth day of January, I looked at the mirror and confirmed that the wound on my face was basically invisible, and then I dressed up, put on my coat, put on the ray of sunshine that Lin Jiangnan gave me, and went out with my head held high.

When I drove downstairs to the company, Lin Jiangnan was already waiting for me with two cups of coffee.

"Why are you here?" I took a cup of coffee and pulled him to a leeward place to stand.

"You said you were going to come to the company after the holiday to resign. There are so many things before and after, I'm worried that you will suffer, and I want to come over and see if there is anything I can do to help. ”

"I can do it myself." I took a deep breath and said, "Aren't you going to work today?" ”

"I took half a day off."

"Oh." I drank coffee for a while, and the sun warmed me. Lin Jiangnan asked me how I planned to talk to the company, but I didn't think too much about it. I don't think Cheng Liren is so unreasonable, after all, I didn't provoke the matter, and he himself has something inauthentic, I don't really want to tear my face, everyone just try to talk about it as well as possible.

"Do you really want me to go up with you?" Lin Jiangnan asked me again.

I threw my head back to finish the last bit of coffee, squeezed the cup hard, and threw it in the trash, "No, I can do it." I tapped him on the shoulder in thanks, turned and walked away.

"I'll wait for you in the car, I'm here anyway."

I turned back and squinted at him in the sun. He smiled and spread his hands, "Call me anytime if you have something, at least I can help with moving things." ”

"That's embarrassing."

"Between friends." He seemed to be emphasizing these four words, so he paused after speaking, "Don't be so polite. ”

"Okay."

When I appeared at the door of the company, Xiao Fang was applying lipstick, and when she saw me, her lipstick poked in her mouth for five seconds, so I stared at her for five seconds.

"Sister, why are you here?" She put away her lipstick and stood up.

I stretched out a finger and pressed it on the fingerprint punch card, and the punch card politely said 'thank you'. I smiled at Xiao Fang, "What you said is really strange. With that, he walked around the front desk and entered the door.

I disappeared from the company after Christmas, and today is exactly the 10th day.

I walked into the office area, and there was a brief silence in the office, just like the last time I had a rumor with Cao Hui. However, I found that I didn't feel the same way as last time, last time I would be angry at the slander of my colleagues and care about their snooping eyes, intentionally or not, but this time I didn't.

I'm leaving anyway, and all the people here can be strangers to me, and their emotions and thoughts have nothing to do with me.

I exchanged a few words with a few designers in our group, and then I was ready to go to Cheng Liren. From the afterglow, I saw the door of Lin Su's office open, and she stood in the door looking at me. I pretended not to see her and walked to Cheng Liren's office from the other side.

When Cheng Liren saw me, he was enthusiastic as if I was a big boss with hundreds of millions of dollars.

"How? Are you alright? Cheng Liren pulled up the chair in front of his desk, "Come on, sit down and say." ”

"No need, Mr. Cheng, I'm here to resign." I put my hands on the edge of his desk and explained my intentions straightforwardly.

"yes, I thought of it too." Cheng Liren's expression looked very regretful and helpless, but the performance traces were quite heavy. He poured me a cup of tea and motioned for me to sit down again, "Don't worry, sit down and talk." I was also to blame for what happened that day, I really drank too much......"

I sat down and gave him a smile that was also a strong performance, "I don't need to mention the events of that day, let's talk about my resignation." ”

"Okay." Cheng Liren sighed heavily, raised his hand and copied the phone to the supervisor of salary and benefits, and asked me to check my attendance over there and calculate my salary in December.

"Mr. Cheng, 30% of my salary is to be paid at the end of the year, don't forget this part."

"Really?" Cheng Liren was the same as the first time he heard about it, "You mean the year-end bonus, right?" ”

"It's not a year-end bonus, although it's called so in the company, it's not an award, it's part of my annual salary."

"What about this part...... It's called performance, you know performance, right? Cheng Liren lit a cigarette, took a very big puff, and then slowly spit it out, "Originally, you have been working with me for almost three years, and your performance has been good. ”

I heard Cheng Liren's tone as if he was ready to repay the debt, so he grinned without smiling, "I think so too." ”
