Chapter 43: Come with me

Maybe after being single for too long, people become prone to trance. For example, forgetting time and forgetting a lot of important things.

After getting off work, Su Xiaoran lay on the bed and thought wildly, and fell asleep unconsciously. After continuing to have several intermittent dreams, Su Xiaoran felt that her ears were very noisy, as if there was a sound of thunder, and like the sound of waves surging, in short, she opened her eyes, only to find that the mobile phone had been calling.

It was Chenxi calling.

It was already nine o'clock in the evening, what was the matter with him calling? Su Xiaoran quickly jumped up from the bed, she pinched her cheek hard, and after verifying that she was not dreaming, she took a deep breath, and then answered the phone.

"Are you at home? I'm downstairs from your house. "What a preconceived statement. Su Xiaoran closed her eyes: "I've fallen asleep, are you okay?" ”

"You come down."

......

Su Xiaoran really wanted to hit the wall, she was very curious, what gave Chenxi so much self-confidence and courage, so that he could always talk to others so self-righteously?

"I don't think you understood, I'm already asleep." Su Xiaoran had a weak heart, and in order to prove that she was sleeping, she really lay down again. There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, and then Chenxi's deep sea-like voice appeared again: "I just want to say something to you, since it's inconvenient for you, forget it!" ”

"Is there anything you can't say on the phone?" Su Xiaoran is a soft-hearted person, and she can vaguely feel Chenxi's faint helplessness.

"It's okay, let's talk about it tomorrow, then you can sleep!"

"Tomorrow? We won't see you tomorrow, have you forgotten that you're going on a business trip? ”

"I haven't forgotten. What, you don't go? Chen Xi seemed surprised, Su Xiaoran explained with a smile: "I have a lot of work on hand and can't leave, besides, I'm clumsy, and I'll be scolded by you again when the time comes!" ”

"Xiaoran, come with me, okay?"

Chen Xi's voice suddenly became unusually gentle, and Su Xiaoran's quiet inner world was teased so high again, she thought about it, but still felt inappropriate: "I'm really busy, let's do this first, Manager Chen." ”

Su Xiaoran hung up the phone as fast as she could, then jumped up from the bed, walked to the window and opened the curtains to look downstairs. Sure enough, there was a white car parked on the side of the road, and a man in white casual clothes was leaning against the side of the car door and looking at it in a daze.

Su Xiaoran was afraid of being discovered, so she hurriedly closed the curtains. When recalling what Chenxi said just now, Su Xiaoran still felt her heart beat faster, this Chenxi usually looks cold, but sometimes he speaks very gently, like an injured big boy who needs to be comforted.

No, it's too dangerous.

Su Xiaoran thought about it and made up her mind that she couldn't go on a business trip.

......

There is a saying that people are not as good as heaven, and Su Xiaoran finally understood it.

The next day, when she just stepped into the door of the company, she received a call from May, who said that she suddenly suffered from a cold last night and now has a high fever and cannot come to work. The point is that May is the internal candidate to accompany Chenxi on a business trip.

Providence makes people.

Under May's pleas for help, Su Xiaoran's tense heart collapsed little by little, and she had no choice but to agree to accompany her on a business trip.

Gathered at nine o'clock, plus Chenxi's entire outing team, there were a total of six people. Of course, Lia was also among the candidates as a secretary, and when Lia saw Su Xiaoran in the team, her expression immediately changed.

"Su Xiaoran, don't you want to stay in the company as a translator?"

"Originally, yes, but May, she was temporary"

"Say no more! You're behind your back. Su Xiaoran, you are really not simple! ”

Lia is very angry, Zeo also looks like he doesn't like to deal with him, the other two can be ignored, they are all old-timers who have been in the company for four or five years, and of course they don't care too much about newcomers like Su Xiaoran.

It is best not to mix up conflicts in the workplace, which is one of the necessary skills for survival conditions in the workplace.

Su Xiaoran originally wanted to say a few more words for himself and May, but when Chenxi came, when he saw Su Xiaoran in the team, a trace of imperceptible emotion passed through his eyes.

Su Xiaoran couldn't understand what it meant.

"Let's get out there and try to get there in the evening."

This business trip chose the company's special car transfer, that is to say, several of them have to stay in the same car for four or five hours, thinking of this difficult process, Su Xiaoran wants to die.

Silent.

Su Xiaoran intuitively chose to sit in the back row, Chenxi sat in the co-pilot in the front row, and Lia and the others sat in the middle, chatting with Chenxi from time to time, it seems that Chenxi went in well today, and was happy to answer their questions.

Su Xiaoran put on the earplugs and twisted her head out of the window in a daze.

It's been a long time since I've been out of the house, and every minute of her life has been tight since she joined the job, especially when there is a waiting teacher to take care of.

Except for Su Xiaoran, no one knows Teacher Hou's current status, Su Xiaoran's parents don't know, and Qiqi doesn't know either.

Su Xiaoran didn't deliberately hide Qiqi, but she really didn't know how to speak, that past was just a thing of the past after a long time.

Su Xiaoran remembered what Qiao Xiaoyan asked her, she said, the salary of a translator is a lot, why Su Xiaoran still squeezes the bus to work every day, Su Xiaoran can only smile over, because the answer to this question involves the untouchable scar in her heart.

At least not for now.

After a few naps, Su Xiaoran woke up again and found that he was already at the door of a hotel in another city.

Lia and the others excitedly got out of the car to take pictures, but Su Xiaoran was woken up by the driver: "Girl, you are the only one left, get out of the car!" ”

Su Xiaoran rubbed her sleepy eyes and got out of the car, but she couldn't see any trace of Chenxi.

Where did you go?

When Su Xiaoran looked into the hotel again, she saw Chenxi standing at the front desk beckoning to them from a distance, and several girls ran over.

"Six people, how do you allocate your rooms?"

"Manager Chen, where do you live?" Lia's makeup today is particularly good-looking, and Chenxi smiled: "I don't like to be noisy, sleep on the top floor." If you girls are too troublesome, you can live on a lower floor. ”

"No! If we don't know each other well, we will definitely be with you, and we also live on the top floor! Lia said, taking Geo's hand. The other two seniors seemed to have already made up their minds, and they nodded their heads to indicate that they had no objections.

Su Xiaoran was embarrassed, does this mean that no one wants to live with her?

"Why don't I stay in a single room, it's okay if the floor is lower." Su Xiaoran didn't want to upset Lia and them anymore, so she offered to stay away from Chenxi.

"Okay, then I'll go through the formalities, you guys wait here."

Chen Xi went very happily, as soon as he left, Lia turned on the warning mode: "Su Xiaoran, let me tell you, don't beat Manager Chen's idea, I have already seen through your little tricks." ”

"Don't worry, I don't have time or thought."

Su Xiaoran felt dizzy, she sat on the sofa next to her and waited, and after a few minutes, Chenxi issued the room card to them, and Su Xiaoran also took her room card.

It was really uncomfortable for several people to squeeze into the same elevator, but fortunately, when she arrived on the second floor, Su Xiaoran took the lead to go out, and when she stepped out of the elevator door, she breathed a sigh of relief as if she was relieved.

It's already seven o'clock in the evening, and since everyone is tired from traveling and traveling, Chenxi's proposal is to solve the dinner by itself and rest well in order to cope with tomorrow's heavy work.

Su Xiaoran didn't want to move another step when she saw the bed. She put down her luggage, then jumped on the bed.

Comfortable.

If only I could lie like this all the time.

Su Xiaoran wanted to sleep again. But the stomach also protested unhappily.

It seems like I'm looking for something to fill my stomach.

Su Xiaoran got up and washed her face, and then took her wallet and planned to go out to breathe the air of the strange city.

Autumn is strong.

The khaki windbreaker he was wearing was just right, and the cool wind was blowing in his face, and Su Xiaoran's consciousness finally gradually sobered up.

It turns out that this is the so-called strange place, as if people will really change their mood when they arrive in a strange city.

Maybe that's what travel is all about?

Su Xiaoran remembered that she used to plan with Ji Ren where to travel together when she got old and had time, etc., and there were many agreements with Qiqi, however, none of them came true.

But life has to leave some regrets to be perfect, right?

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoran felt a little better, she walked to the snack street near the hotel, which was very lively, especially when the lights were on, and the crowd of people could be squeezed into a street.

Su Xiaoran stopped at a ramen restaurant, she likes to eat ramen so much that every time she goes on a date, Ji Ren will go several streets to help her find which one is more delicious.

"Girl, what about eating noodles? Sit down, we've got a handmade handicraft here, and we'll be fine for a while! ”

The middle-aged boss with a white towel on his shoulder greeted him warmly, and Su Xiaoran sat down and smirked.

"The girl isn't a local, is she?"

"Is it that obvious?" Su Xiaoran was surprised, obviously they were all yellow people with black hair, how could they tell it at a glance?

"I've been running this noodle shop for a long time, and I've seen too many people coming and going, who is doing something, I'll see it accurately!" The boss smiled proudly, and Su Xiaoran suddenly became interested: "Then what do you think I do?" ”

"Well...... The boss glanced at Su Xiaoran up and down, and then said, "Look at the girl, you are dressed, you must be a person working in the office, right?" Also, I think you've just recently fallen out of love. ”

The owner is confident.

"Just fell out of love?" Su Xiaoran thought it was funny: "You guessed wrong, I've been out of love for a long time!" ”

"Yo, this handsome guy, do you want to eat noodles too?" The boss didn't seem to pay attention to the last sentence Su Xiaoran said, and hurriedly entertained the guests. Su Xiaoran turned her head and looked, the so-called handsome guy who eats noodles is not Chenxi!
