Chapter 7: On Fire
In front of Qin Zhao, Wei Xiao behaved quite bravely, but when he returned home and was alone, the feeling of weightlessness and the helplessness that all his senses were drowned out by the endless whistling sound came back to him.
For several nights in a row, Wei Xiao dreamed that he jumped from the sky, either passively or actively. And all the senses were magnified countless times based on the experience of the previous two days, and I was awakened several times.
Wei Xiao looked at the dark circles under his eyes in the mirror, and sighed helplessly: It seems that this sequelae is not ordinary.
She suddenly remembered that when she first came into contact with these things, the great shock completely overpowered the fresh curiosity, and even gave rise to a lot of fear.
Whether it's in class or at home, everything you can see with the naked eye seems to have a life force. They will grow up, they can speak, they can attack humans, and there is no place to rest as far as the eye can see.
Panic can often occupy the emotional peak in most cases.
Later, how did you adjust your mentality, not only gladly accepted these things, but also took the initiative to use them to make money?
Wei Xiao couldn't think much about it all of a sudden, but he knew that thanks to Yu Hongli, the owner of the bookstore, more details were blurry.
"If you do well and pass the assessment, you still have to find a time to talk to him." Wei Xiao thought in his heart, and his mood gradually improved unexpectedly.
Anyway, I am barely stable now, and I am no longer a "jobless vagrant".
It's just that she is the only one who thinks like this.
"Going to work tomorrow? On the opposite side of the dining table, Wei Jianguo suddenly asked.
The morning news was still playing on the TV next to her, and the female anchor's voice was cold and formal, with an unsatisfactory indifference.
"Hmm." Wei Xiao buried his head in nibbling on the buns and replied without being salty or light.
"What job?" Wei Jianguo snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "Are you a toad?" If I poke you, you'll bounce forward, and I'll have to make a clear list of questions so you know what to answer. ”
Wei Xiao stopped nibbling on the buns, stared at the bowl in front of him, and said, "Business assistant." ”
Still without much explanation, the scene suddenly cooled down, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.
At this time, Wei Xiaodu still had the mind to think about it: he didn't know that being able to perceive the atmosphere was an obvious trait that did not belong to the pioneers. Sometimes it's so clear that it seems like I can see the air flow and stop in front of me in a daze.
"Oh, I guess Xiaoxiao is also nervous." Lin Jingxian got up and gave Wei Jianguo a bowl of porridge, glanced at Wei Xiao with a smile, and said: "After all, although Xiaoxiao has graduated for several years, she has never gone out to work, she has no experience at all, and she is not a fresh graduate, and the company can still hire her, so she shouldn't have reacted." ”
Wei Xiao gave Lin Jingxian a thumbs up in her heart, and she was able to carry a gun and a stick in every sentence, which I have to say is also a kind of ability.
Sure enough, Wei Jianguo was enraged by the success and sneered: "What's the name of the company?" I'll check it out myself, but it's probably not a good company, otherwise it's not unusual to fall in love with you. It's embarrassing to stay at home every day and gnaw at old for so many years. ”
Hearing this, Wei Xiao exploded on the spot, stood up, turned his eyes around Lin Jingxian and Wei Jianguo, and looked indifferent: "I haven't given less living expenses every month, right?" Returned to ...... two days before the month"
"Oh, between father and daughter, can't you have a meal in harmony? In the morning, it is noisy, and it is embarrassing to spread it. Without waiting for Wei Xiao to finish speaking, Lin Jingxian interrupted Wei Xiao with a voice, and the smile on her face did not decrease.
This is not to let her tell the amount of money she takes each month.
Wei Xiao was too lazy to dwell on these things, took two buns, and turned around to go back to his room.
"Company name!" Wei Jianguo shouted.
"Xindi Reclamation Office, over there in the Qinye Building." After Wei Xiao finished speaking, he slammed the door of his room shut.
This name is a random one taken by Qin Zhao, and it can be regarded as a name that hides people's eyes, on the surface, it is a temporary office of a real estate company here, and all kinds of information are complete, and Wei Jianguo has no way to find out what is wrong.
The community here is a little old, and the sound insulation is not very good, and now Wei Xiaodu can still hear Wei Jianguo's scolding in the living room, as well as Lin Jingxian's malicious but smiling voice.
Wei Xiao thought about it, got up and locked the door of the room, and then lay down on his bed again.
Such days, which lasted for a full eighteen years, became more obvious after her graduation, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.
The idea of moving out is like a weed, constantly spreading and growing wildly in my heart, and even faintly has a tendency to bury more than other emotional thoughts.
"Xiaoxiao, you have to wait for me to come back."
"Just wait at home for me to come back, don't leave."
"Be sure to wait for me at home! Good way~"
……
Xiang Lan's voice has been circulating in his mind, from the gentle and gentle at the beginning, it gradually evolved into deafening, mixed with the sound of the wind when he fell.
Wei Xiao woke up suddenly, his eyes involuntarily fell on the Tang Zhidao hanging on the wall, panting and gradually coming back to his senses.
She felt like she might not be waiting any longer.
Wei Xiao glanced at the time, and at two o'clock in the afternoon, he slept directly past lunch time. Lin Jingxian should not leave food for you and her, thought for a moment, and without much hesitation, Wei Xiao got up and went to the bathroom.
Long-term stress has caused her migraines to be a little severe, and napping less or sleeping too much can easily cause headaches. Now, it was as if a hammer had appeared in my head, and it was constantly pounding and pounding.
After simply washing up and cleaning up, Wei Xiao tied Tang Zhidao and put it back in the tennis bag.
Tomorrow will start to officially take up the post, and I don't know what strange assessments Qin Zhao will have, just in case, Wei Xiao chose to go out to practice the knife today.
The place where she practiced knives was a deserted vacant land by the river, a little far from Tonghua Street, but in order to avoid the knife in her bag being discovered by the security check, she could only ride a bicycle there.
Now the weather is okay, and I don't know what to do when I go to work and catch up with the heavy rain and snow.
Wei Xiao sighed silently, turned around and closed the door of his room.
"I'm going out again."
Wei Xiao was taken aback by this sudden sound, and subconsciously followed the sound to look over, in the living room that was a little late and dim without turning on the lights, Lin Jingxian nestled on the sofa, motionless, only the eyes were still bright, and she had an impatient look as always.
"Ah, go out and play." Wei Xiao answered, and looked in the direction of the other party in disbelief.
When she went out to the bathroom to take a shower just now, she didn't pay much attention to the direction of the living room, but it stands to reason that when Lin Jingxian saw her, cynicism must be indispensable, and she didn't even notice the existence of the other party just now.
"Hehe, I didn't make a lot of money, and I always learned from others to enjoy, and I don't know who I learned from." Lin Jingxian whispered coldly, and finally looked away and landed on the windowsill not far away.
The living room of Wei Xiao's house is not very bright, and whenever the weather outside is bad, the living room is extremely dark.
The glimmer hit Lin Jingxian's chin, and her whole person was like a cat in the shadows, with an inexplicable depression.
Wei Xiao was only slightly stunned, and he didn't have the heart to think about it, and walked straight out of the house.
The moment the door closed, she vaguely heard Lin Jingxian say softly: "What a sin." Even, with a faint crying tone.
It's just that Lin Jingxian, who has always been arrogant and domineering, how can there be such a time.
Wei Xiao shook her head, she felt an endless sense of security with the weight of Tang Zhidao behind her back, lifted the backpack on her shoulders and tossed it slightly, and went downstairs briskly.
No matter how oppressive the atmosphere is in this so-called home, Wei Xiao only feels extremely relaxed as soon as he goes out and the relaxed and free atmosphere outside is overwhelming.
It's like it's about to fly.
"Wei Xiao, went out to play?" Sister Zhao of the breakfast shop was carrying a basket of vegetables, and when she saw Wei Xiao coming out, she greeted her happily.
"Ah, looking for the eldest sister, you are only coming back from grocery shopping now?" Wei Xiao also smiled and said a few words.
"yes, isn't it my turn to cook today, so I'll buy some casually." After Sister Zhao finished speaking, she changed her words and said, "By the way, I heard that you have found a job?" ”
Wei Xiao was stunned and nodded.
"That's really good, listen to Lin Jingxian, do a good job! It's also much better to find a stable job than to tinker with those part-time jobs every day. ”
Wei Xiao smiled awkwardly, didn't say anything, and didn't want to continue chatting with the other party on this topic.
"I thought you were going to work in your factory, but I was shocked, but fortunately I didn't go there."
"What's going on over there?" Wei Xiao asked casually.
Letting her go to work in Wei Jianguo's factory can almost be regarded as a long-awaited thing. Lin Jingxian and Wei Ming's thoughts are very simple, they just want to suppress her, but like Sister Zhao, they can only be said to be simple enthusiastic neighbors, and they want her to actively participate in the competition for family property and brush her sense of existence everywhere.
It's really the first time I'm worried that she's gone.
"You don't know anything like that?" Sister Zhao smacked her tongue, and then continued to say to herself: "Yes, after all, you don't go out much." ”
"Over there are several fires in Zhongchuang Industrial Park this year!"
"What?" Wei Xiao frowned and said, "It's not summer yet, and it's not the season that is easy to catch fire." ”
"Not really!" Sister Zhao clapped her hands, her expression became mysterious, she lowered her voice, and said, "A few days ago, it caught fire again, and it was next to your factory, but it doesn't seem to have any particularly serious losses." But ah, it's not that the eldest sister and I'm nosy, or I think you're also a member of the Wei family, so let's go and see more about the family's affairs, so it's good to know what's going on. ”
"Of course, it's okay to go to work over there, it's very evil recently! The office building of Qinye Building is comfortable, there are stylish people coming and going, and the safety is definitely much better than in the factory......"
Seeing that the other party's topic was getting more and more biased, Wei Xiao quickly interrupted the topic, and after saying thank you several times, he turned around and left.
It's just that Sister Zhao's words stayed in my heart.
Wicked?
Wei Xiao looked up at the gray sky, and chuckled lightly in his heart, if there was really something evil in this world, it should have something to do with the Moon Spirit Stone.
