Chapter 12: Restlessness
"Sister Ting, it's so hot, why are you waiting here? Get on in. Lu Ning hurriedly beckoned Guo Ting to come into the store and wait, there was no air conditioning outside the store, and Guo Ting had obvious sweat stains on her forehead.
Because of his cultivation, Lu Ning was able to withstand the changes of the weather better than ordinary people, whether it was hot or cold, he was completely calm. Even when he walked in from the outside, his face was not red or breathless, and he didn't even sweat a drop.
"It's okay, I've just arrived." Guo Ting had a smile on her face, led the way in front, and headed towards the western restaurant.
Now that the climax of the meal has passed, there are not many customers in the store, the two found a window seat on the second floor, and ordered two steaks, two cups of coffee, and a snack.
"Sister Ting, you don't seem to be in a good mood today, is something wrong?" After the waiter took the menu, Lu Ning asked.
"Hey......" Guo Ting was already a little forced to laugh, but she couldn't help but sigh at this moment, with a gloomy look on her face, and said: "I am a best friend, the relationship has always been very good, like a sister, but I didn't expect that yesterday, I was diagnosed with terminal cancer." This is a bolt from the blue for her, her family is just an ordinary family, but her parents do love her very much, if she knows that she has a terminal illness, she will definitely lend money everywhere for her treatment, in order not to drag down her family, she almost committed suicide yesterday, fortunately the rescue was timely, but even if this rescue came back, the doctor said, she will live for half a year at most. ”
Lu Ning nodded secretly in her heart, no wonder Sister Ting didn't contact me yesterday, it seems that she doesn't have time at all, and she is also busy today.
Guo Ting paused and continued: "Life is impermanent, and I don't know what will happen in the next moment. My best friend, cheerful, kind-hearted, helpful, and a good youth, two days ago we also planned to travel together on the National Day, did you ever think this kind of thing would happen? ”
A person who was alive and well one moment ago has cancer the next moment, and there is no cure for it, so he can only wait for death, and the impact on people is really unimaginable.
Lu Ning can also understand why Guo Ting has such an abnormal performance.
"Sister Ting, I learned a little medical skills from my father, and I'll accompany you to see your girlfriend tomorrow."
Guo Ting's eyes were a little gloomy, but she still smiled at Lu Ning reluctantly, then shook her head and said, "She has already taken a leave of absence, and her family will come tonight, and she will return to her hometown tomorrow morning." Besides, she has terminal cancer, a terminal illness, even if she is sent abroad, the chance of survival is slim, and she will only spend more money. Their family is very ordinary, and if they really have to spend a lot of money on medical treatment, it will be nothing more than a heavy debt to the family. Lu Ning, I understand your kindness. ”
Lu Ning wanted to speak again and again, in fact, cancer is a terminal disease for ordinary people, but for them, the onmyoji, there is still a turnaround. Ordinary doctors can't treat it well, but that doesn't mean they can't treat it.
It's just that he didn't see Guo Ting's best friend in person, and he wasn't sure that he would be able to cure him 100%, so he didn't say anything more.
He digressed from the topic and said something about his studies. Guo Ting wanted to have dinner with Lu Ning to relieve her mood because she was depressed, and she was so happy that she didn't dwell on this issue.
It didn't take long for steaks, coffee, and snacks to be served, and the two chatted while eating, talking about a lot of topics, Guo Ting was very interested in Lu Ning's identity as Onmyoji, and also asked some things about Onmyoji.
Lu Ning said something superficially, but even so, for Guo Ting, these are also clouds and fog.
"Hey, isn't this Guo Ting?" The two of them were eating steaks, and suddenly three people came over, two middle-aged men, and one young man in his twenties.
Guo Ting raised her head when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "It turned out to be Director He, Mr. Qian, and Chairman Yuan." I didn't expect to meet you here, it's really a coincidence. ”
The young man known as Chairman Yuan is named Yuan Xiandong, the president of the student union of Shazhou University, and the other two, one is He Wenhui, the director of Baoya in Beihu Province, and the other is Qian Qian, the general manager of a well-known Internet company in Shazhou.
Qian Qian smiled and said: "Guo Ting, we were chatting outside just now, and we talked about you, I didn't expect you to drink coffee here, just right, we booked a private room inside, let's go over and have a drink together." ”
"Yes, it's better to meet by chance, it seems that our fate has arrived." He Wenhui should be kind.
"No, Mr. Qian, Director He, I made an appointment with my friend today, let's have dinner together next time." Guo Ting's face was obviously uncomfortable, and there was even a hint of disgust in her eyes and tone.
She didn't like to eat with the so-called leaders and rich people, and she had never done it before, but today she has been haunted by her best friend's cancer, her mood is already very bad, her temper is difficult to control, and naturally she doesn't even have the most basic cover-up.
Yuan Xiandong immediately corrected Guo Ting's mistake seriously, and said: "Guo Ting, this is yours, Mr. Qian and Director He, but are they free at any time, and they want to make an appointment with the two great gods together, it is an opportunity and blessing that falls from the sky, how can you not grasp it?" As for you, a friend, you can make another appointment at any time. ”
"Guo Ting, you are so old, you should know the priorities."
Guo Ting said with a white face and sneering: "I'm sorry, Chairman Yuan, this opportunity to curry favor with Mr. Qian and Director He will be handed over to you." ”
Others may not know, but she knows a lot about Yuan Xiandong.
The more I knew, the more disgusting I was with this person.
Yuan Xiandong is a very capable person, and he knows many bosses in Shazhou, he will frequently introduce the senior sisters and sisters of Shazhou University to the big bosses, and get to know these bosses.
Although most of the senior sisters and sisters are voluntary, if there is no instigation from him, without his recommendation and wooing, how can there be so much volume?
Yuan Xiandong had also looked for Guo Ting before, after all, Guo Ting's beauty was at the level of a school flower.
There are not a few big bosses who are interested in Guo Ting.
But all of them were rejected by Guo Ting.
After joining the live broadcast of Leopard Tooth, and after Yuan Xiandong's instigation many times, she didn't have any good impression of Yuan Xiandong for a long time.
In the past, she may still be hypocritical, after all, Yuan Xiandong is the president of the student union, and he doesn't dare to say that he is calling for wind and rain in school, but he is very influential.
It may even affect her studies.
Last year, there was an officer of the student union, because during the meeting, he called Yuan Xiandong's name instead of calling him Chairman Yuan, and he scolded him, and the student union officer was very dissatisfied and stabbed this matter on the Internet, as a result, the school not only did not punish Yuan Xiandong, but in the end the secretary was expelled.
This incident caused a lot of sensation.
Guo Ting's words made the faces of Yuan Xiandong and the three of them ugly, especially Yuan Xiandong, who instantly turned pale, he was indeed currying favor with various bosses, but it was still very unacceptable to say this more bluntly.
"Guo Ting, what nonsense are you talking about?" Yuan Xiandong shouted, "Forget it on my side, I can forgive you, I don't need you to apologize, you apologize to Director He and Mr. Qian quickly." ”
Guo Ting slammed the table and shouted, "What? Am I saying something wrong? I've made an appointment with a friend today, so I can't have coffee with you. I'm a student, a serious anchor, I'm not an escort, but I'm not responsible for eating, drinking, and sleeping. ”
"Guo Ting, are you sick? Got dynamite? Fried at one point? Yuan Xiandong's face turned pale.
He Wenhui said angrily: "Guo Ting, what are you talking about? Did you talk like that? It just happened that as a leader, inviting you to a meal was just a meal, why did it become for you to eat with you? You really take yourself too seriously, don't you? ”
"Apologize, hurry up and apologize to me and Mr. Qian, if you don't apologize, then you just wait to terminate the contract and wait for compensation. As the person in charge of North Lakes Province, I still have this right, you can try it. ”
Qian Qian said coldly: "That's right, you Shazhou University, I have always donated, our company has always provided your company with a lot of employment opportunities, you insult me so much, do you mean that the people of Shazhou University have this attitude towards me?" ”
"Hmph, if that's the case, then I have to think about whether to cancel the cooperation."
The two of them, one came hard, and the other used threatening means, but no matter which one it was, Guo Ting was put on fire.
If you don't do it well, you will be unemployed, and if you don't do it well, you will drop out of school.
At other times, maybe Guo Ting would still be afraid, but now it happens that her mind is restless, her heart is full of her best friend's cancer, and on the other hand, it is also her unspoken rule of this industry, which is disgusting to the extreme.
"Who do you threaten? I dare to do it, if just because I said these two words, you will fire me, and you will cancel the cooperation? Then I don't want to go to this kind of unit. If it's just because I'm telling the truth, you're going to break off the cooperation with our school, then I really have to look in the mirror, do I have such a big face? ”
