Chapter 30: Confession
noisy, lonely; crowding, listening; Bland, unremarkable......
I walked alone on my way to work. Even at eight o'clock in the morning, the streets were still crowded. Fortunately, my home is not far from the company, in fact, it is not a home, it is a rented house. I weaved through the crowd and walked as fast as I could.
The phone in my pocket rang suddenly. Call at this time, it won't be the boss, right? I thought about it and looked at my watch, and it wasn't half past eight. I took out my phone, it's not the boss. I breathed a sigh of relief. connected, and a familiar voice came from the earphones in his ear: "Liu Yaoxi, why haven't you arrived yet?" β
"It's almost there, what's the urging?"
"Okay, I'll wait for you." After saying that, he hung up.
It was a colleague of mine just now, named Ning Lichen, and the relationship is quite iron. The reason why he has been waiting for me in the company for a long time is because he is ready to confess to his long-time crush on his female colleague today, today is May 20th, he spent a night in the company last night, and I don't know how many hours he slept, but listening to his voice just now, it seems to be very excited. Isn't it just a confession, as for it? I still silently hope that he can succeed, after all, the relationship between the three of us is quite good, and we often sit together and chat at parties.
Oh, I almost forgot, that female colleague's name is Zhao Menghua. She usually arrives at the office at 8:10, and I roughly calculated, and if I'm lucky, I might be able to meet her.
Just thinking about it, the company's building has come into view, and the golden roof is its most special symbol. After a while, I had already walked downstairs to the company, and I looked at my watch again, and it was eight twenty, and it was okay. With a sigh of relief, he walked to the door of the company.
I was just about to step through the door when I heard a familiar voice behind me: "Liu Yaoxi!" "I guessed who it was as soon as I heard it, but instinctively turned my head back and found the source of the sound - sure enough, Zhao Menghua waved at me across the road. I waved at her, and she saw it and ran towards me.
As soon as Zhao Menghua ran over, he smiled and said to me, "Qiao." After saying that, he stroked her long hair that was flying wildly because of running. I looked at her again, and she seemed to be dressed better than usual.
Zhao Menghua seemed to notice my gaze: "What are you looking at?" Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman? As she spoke, she shook her long hair with her right hand and walked into the company.
I immediately followed, and smiled wryly at her: "No, you are dressed ...... today" I stopped talking.
"How? Looks good, right? β
"Why are you dressed up so pretty?"
"It's 520 today."
βSoοΌβ I feigned confusion and asked, "Do you think someone will confess to you?" β
"How do you know if there isn't?" Zhao Menghua asked me arrogantly. We have walked to the elevator, but there are a lot of people waiting for the elevator, and it seems that the elevator is still not jammed.
As I expected, everyone barely squeezed in, but we didn't, and the two of us had to wait for the next shift.
"Huh? You don't have someone to confess, do you? I asked as a gossip, worried that she would answer in the affirmative.
"Can't you have a little faith in me? How can you be so sure that no one has a crush on me? Zhao Menghua was saying that the elevator came, and the two of us walked into the elevator, she continued, "If I dress up better, I must confess to others?" Her face was full of tsundere.
After a few more seconds of silence, the phone rang, and sure enough, it was Ning Lichen. I got on the phone: "It's in the elevator." Zhao Menghua glanced at me, and I told her that it was Ning Lichen with my lips, and she nodded lightly.
"With Zhao Menghua. Well. β
We work on the 17th floor, and both of them are more advanced than me, a little bit bigger than me. Because I have only graduated from college for about a year, I am actually only half an intern in this company now, that is, the group of people at the bottom of the company.
The elevator has reached the 14th floor, I am silently worried in my heart, Ning Lichen's heartless personality does not know if he can win Zhao Menghua's heart, fortunately, Zhao Menghua is not so serious, in fact, he is half a tomboy. Even though I gave Ning Lichen some advice, I couldn't help but be a little worried in my heart.
"Ding-" arrived. I don't know what Ning Lichen's result will be in one night, but I am still looking forward to it. Stepping out of the elevator, we only need to turn two corners to see the results of Ning Lichen's night.
Darkness...... That's also my idea, and the next hope that comes up is unsolvable for ordinary girls. I thought to myself. Don't let me down, Ning Lichen.
"Why didn't you turn on the lights? The curtains don't open either. She muttered to herself, followed by the sound of high heels on the ground, and the direction should be to turn on the lights. I also walked to the side with some interest, saying that the floor without lights was really dark, and the curtains were closed and I couldn't see anything.
"Smack." The lights are on. Zhao Menghua stood at the switch and was stunned, and I was really taken aback: This kid is very powerful. There is a projector in the middle passage, and on the wall opposite us, a photo of Zhao Menghua is projected: selfie, full-body photo...... It switches at a frequency of about one piece a second. Most of these seem to be taken by Ning Lichen, I have to say, they are really beautiful, I almost feel moved when I see them. On the ceiling are the three big characters of Zhao Menghua, and they are carefully enclosed, there is not so much space on the floor, and these desks are indeed difficult to move. This scene is quite clichΓ©d, but I hope it works.
Suddenly the music sounded, I was stunned for a moment, and listened carefully - it was Zhao Menghua's favorite song: "Zhaohua". Yes, there is only a word difference from her name, and the lyrics and music of this song are all very good, but they are not very popular.
I turned my head to look at Zhao Menghua again, she was already stunned, standing next to the light switch with a confused expression. I pretended to be surprised, and said to her with a smile, "It seems that you guessed right, someone really confessed to you." β
"This ......," she covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes full of emotion and surprise.
"I don't know who it is, but are you so excited?" I asked with a wry smile.
She didn't speak, just nodded violently.
"Wouldn't it be too casual?" I asked with a smile. Before Zhao Menghua could respond, suddenly a song sounded. As soon as I heard it, I knew that it was Ning Lichen's voice. It's been a long time since I've heard him sing, and I remember that he used to sing just plainly: it's ugly, but in fact, it's okay to hear; It's not good to say, but it's not true. But this time I seem to be singing well, and I feel like I've been practicing for a long time. Ning Lichen hadn't appeared yet, but Zhao Menghua had probably heard who it was.
Zhao Menghua looked at me in surprise, his face full of disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that it was Ning Lichen who liked him.
After about five or six seconds, Ning Lichen finally met our eyes. He held a bouquet of flowers in his right hand and a microphone in his left hand, singing as he walked, and slowly walked towards Zhao Menghua. Ning Lichen's face was full of spring, smiling and singing, gradually narrowing the distance between the two of them. Looking at Zhao Menghua's expression again, it seems that Ning Lichen is almost successful. Zhao Menghua's expression was not only surprised but moved, and most of this matter was finalized.
Suddenly, bursts of applause came into his ears, very rhythmic, and they were clapped along Ning Lichen's singing. No need to guess, it's that group of colleagues. I also clapped my hands to the rhythm unconsciously. Sure enough, a group of people came out of the corridor where Ning Lichen walked out before, all of them were familiar faces, each face was full of smiles.
Zhao Menghua was stunned again, it was obvious that this was something she didn't expect.
Gradually, the song was nearing its end, and everyone clapped around Zhao Menghua and Ning Lichen to beat the rhythm. In Ning Lichen's singing, the whole atmosphere is well created, even if the scene is a bit old-fashioned, but this time it should be more than enough.
With the disappearance of Ning Lichen's singing voice and the cessation of the song, everyone's emotions seemed to be extremely high, and the moment Ning Lichen finished singing, the entire floor was directly boiling. The cheers and the noise resounded in the sky. When the cheers gradually subsided, Ning Lichen stretched the flower forward to Zhao Menghua and spoke: "Be my girlfriend, Zhao Menghua." β
Zhao Menghua was so excited that he couldn't speak, he didn't even take the flower, he just nodded vigorously.
The cheers rang out again......
