22. Thirty years old is thirty years old
When I got home, I slept without even washing my face.
When it was dawn, I got up and went to the toilet, and after lying back on the bed, I took out my mobile phone, found the photo of Lin Jiangnan, and looked at it for a while before continuing to sleep.
I didn't have a headache or dizziness after the hangover, but my face was white.
The two faces were red and itchy, like girls who had just finished harvesting a season of barley wheat on the plateau. It is estimated that it was blown by the wind after the moisture got on his face last night. I originally wanted to apply more oil, but Xu Yijing disagreed, and forced me to put a mask on me.
"You're not going to work?" I asked her.
"Yesterday I worked too late and came back at 12 o'clock, so I went later today. You stick to me honestly. Xu Yijing muttered while putting a mask on me: "I really haven't seen you like this, how can you be blushy when you come back from a date?" What are you doing? β
I gently tugged at the edge of the mask, and Uriu said, "Look at what you said, it's just a drink with friends and a date." β
Xu Yijing stared at me, as if she didn't know which word to say first, and after a while, she pulled the mask off my face, "Sumi, do you have any problems?" Lin Jiangnan has a good young man in front of you, and he asks you to play and drink, which is obviously interesting to you, can't you see it? Or do you not like him? If you don't like it, you can tell him directly, what are you delaying? β
I thought it was ridiculous, "There's something wrong with me, and he didn't say he liked me, what do you want me to tell him directly?" β
"Do you need to talk about it?"
"Needless to say?" I asked her rhetorically.
The two of us stared at each other with straight eyebrows, and it took a while for Xu Yijing to breathe a sigh of relief, "Then what do you think?" β
"Do I need to think about anything?" I laughed and said, "I'm going to popularize it with you, and I think too much about it, there's an exclusive term called 'self-inflicted', and I hate that word the most." β
"Are you scared?"
"I'm not afraid." I denied it, then nodded again, "Yes, I'm scared." Lao Xu, I'm almost thirty, and he's only twenty-four. What do I need if I'm in a relationship? Stable! I don't want to spend my thirty years old with his twenty-four, and I don't like the script of 'raising'. β
"What's wrong with being thirty? Is thirty old old? Xu Yijing was dismissive of this.
"Thirty is not much, thirty is thirty." I shrugged my shoulders, "I'm past the age when I want to play, and I'm not a fun-loving person." Okay, I don't want to fall in love and get married at all, so don't consume your enthusiasm on me. β
"Then why did you go when he asked you out?"
"Hey, big sister, I've been in a bad mood lately, can't I go out with my friends for a while? When didn't I call you, what about you? β
"Blame me?"
"Or else? Am I to blame myself? I snatched the mask back from her hand and put it on my face crookedly, "Besides, Lin Jiangnan didn't say that he liked me, what are we arguing about here?" β
"With your elm head, I can't even open my mouth."
"Then it's better not to speak, and save me from refusing." I closed my eyes and massaged my face, and said to Xu Yijing, "Thank you for treating me like a baby." But please help me think about it, why does Lin Jiangnan like me? Am I beautiful or gentle like water? Am I a rich man or a rich country? What does he like about me? Is it because I'm kind? Or is it because I have a Beijing hukou? β
"Why does Lin Jiangnan like you, how do I know, it's enough for me to know it, why don't I know why?"
"Hush." I snorted and closed my eyes, "People are valuable in self-knowledge, and if I have merit, then this is it." β
"Why are you so unconfident?"
"No no is no nothing, what can you do with me!"
"What the are you......" Xu Yijing's swear words were on her lips, she took a deep breath and swallowed back, "I can't talk about serious things if I want to talk to you!" β
"Pull it down, what's the matter? Men chase women, women chase men, I like you, do you like me, it's called serious? I waved my finger in her direction, "This is the most indecent thing. β
"You're annoying!" Xu Yijing pointed at me, "How did you say you fell in love with Yao Feng back then?" When you two are alone, do you talk about love or cross talk? β
"It's a love story." I tugged at the corners of my mouth slightly, "Maybe it's because I talked too much about love at that time, so I'm immune now." β
The sun sets and the moon rises, the stars are bright, the flowers are spring rain, and the autumn wind is falling. In the past three years, Yao Feng and I have spoken to each other, and every word he said to me was a love word, into my ears and into my heart.
And how? Later, the sun rose as usual, the moon hung in the east sky and the stars were still the same, and the spring and autumn did not change, only our love words became jokes. So I'd rather tell jokes than love words now.
How good a joke it is, it won't change!
"Are you immune to love words, or are you immune to love?" Xu Yijing asked me.
"I'm immune to childish emotions!"
"Do you think Lin Jiangnan is naΓ―ve?"
I opened my eyes and frowned slightly, "What's the matter with him, what are you doing with him?" β
"What emotions are not childish?"
"Any emotion is childish!" I ripped off my mask and stood up and walked to the bathroom.
"It's been seven years since you and Yao Feng broke up, are you still sad?"
"Hurt your ass!" I went into the bathroom, stood at the door and snorted at Xu Yijing, then decisively closed the door and shouted: "Sister Confidant, hurry up and go to work!" β
I arrived at the company at ten o'clock, and Xiao Fangzheng was sitting behind the front desk looking in the mirror. When she saw me, she tried to squeeze out a smile, but I didn't wait for her to smile and walked straight over. Yan Hua and Lin Su saw me coming, and tacitly gathered into my office.
"Are you better?" Lin Su asked, she looked at my face and exclaimed, "Yo, what's wrong with your face?" What's wrong? β
"Yesterday it was blown by the wind."
Lin Su looked at me and asked in a low voice, "Did you go out and cry yesterday?" β
This is a big misunderstanding!
I hastened to deny, "No, no, no!" Isn't it just a bit of nonsense to chew on the root of the tongue? β
"It's good that you think so." Lin Su nodded and put his mind at ease, "No one said much about you left yesterday, this kind of thing is for a while, you ignore it, and the person who said it is not interesting." What the truth is, it will be clear after a while. β
"Cheng Liren didn't say anything?" I asked her.
"Nope."
"Okay." I pressed the boot button on the computer, and then said to Yan Hua: "I'll sort out the work in a while, hand over to you, and then invite you to a casual meal when I come back from my annual leave." β
Lin Xu and Yan Hua were both stunned for a moment, "You really want to resign?" β
Are you really going to quit? Lin Jiangnan also asked me this yesterday, and I couldn't help but feel nervous when I heard it. He didn't want me to resign, I asked him why, and he didn't answer.
Actually, I'm a little afraid of him answering.
"Think again, don't be impulsive." Lin Su said to me again.
"I'd better be impulsive." I came back to my senses and entered the boot password, "Cheng Liren is so unconcerned about himself, why should I sacrifice myself to take care of his business?" He wants Cao Hui's business so much, he can do it himself. He couldn't get his cousin up. Amusing! "I SAT DOWN, OPENED WORD, AND TYPED DOWN THE THREE WORDS OF MY RESIGNATION LETTER.
"Sumi, I don't think you should worry." Lin Xu shook my arm, "Even if you resign, you have to find a home first." You quit so nakedly, and it's hard to find a job at the end of the year, so why bother. β
"If you can't find it, stay there." I blurted out.
Lin Su was stunned, then sighed and sat down opposite me, looking at me with a somewhat complicated look, "In the end, I am not tired of home, and I am much freer." Envy. β
"I'm a single dog, what to envy. It's because I'm from Beijing that I take advantage of it, and I don't have a mortgage, so I dare to resign. Isn't it the same for you, your husband also earns a lot, you can rest whenever you want, why bother with this. You see you've had dark circles under your eyes again these days. β
"What should I do if you two are like this?" Yan Hua said pitifully, "I don't have a husband to support me, and I have to pay the rent." β
As soon as Lin Su heard this, he immediately raised a palm and waved it, expressing his complete disapproval, "Husband? Don't point fingers at your husband. It's true that the economic base determines the superstructure, and I'm still making money here, and I don't have much say at home. She sighed helplessly, and said half-jokingly: "Who let the house be bought by others, and the car is also bought by others." β
"For you to say, I feel that the future is dark." Yan Hua said: "I still dream of being Mrs. Kuo." β
"It's safer to be a rich second generation, and it's reasonable to spend money." I pointed to Lin Su and said to Yan Hua: "You see, her daughter will be a white rich beauty in the future, and her father's money is hers." Not to mention that reincarnation is a technical job. β
Yan Hua nodded again and again: "Yes, when I go back for the Spring Festival, I will ask my dad when his small supermarket can go to NASDAQ to ring the bell." β
The three of us laughed for a while, and the topic turned back to resignation, Lin Xu still advised me to think about it seriously, but I thought about it and felt that resignation was the only way to happiness. I want to see Cao Hui again, so we have to 'die' one, either when he leaves Orange or I leave Chengmei, but I have no way to control his stay or stay, so I can only control my own stay.
Lin Su and Yan Hua persuaded me to no avail, so I had to go away. I bit my fingers at the screen for a while, and finally held back a letter of resignation:
"Because I was not qualified for the work arranged by the company and could not adapt to the company's corporate culture, I decided to resign from the position of director of the third design group after careful consideration. I will complete the handover and resignation procedures within one month. Please be informed. β
I printed out my resignation letter, read it twice, signed my name vigorously, and got up and walked to the door.
At this time, the mobile phone shook in my pocket, and I took it out to see that it was a message from Lin Jiangnan, asking if I was in the company. I replied with a yes and pulled the door open.
Outside the door, Lin Jiangnan raised his right hand and was about to knock on the door, and said with a surprised expression: "I haven't knocked on the door yet." β
My eyes glared at the bouquet of flowers he was holding in his left arm, "Why are you here?" β
"Send flowers."
"To whom?"
"You."
