Chapter 18 A two-bedroom apartment on the campus of the Agricultural University
The noon banquet lasted until more than two o'clock in the afternoon, at the door, President Zhao said goodbye to everyone one by one, everyone seemed reluctant, especially Liu Lu, who took Nie Congcong's hand and said and said, but he was reluctant to let go, Nie Congcong was angry and laughing, the first acquaintance, where did so many feelings suddenly come?
When President Zhao was leaving, he once again told him to smile, you must take care of Editor-in-Chief Nie, and you can find him at any time if you have something. smiled and agreed, she asked President Zhao to go back to rest quickly, so he didn't have to worry about things here. She accompanied Nie Congcong all the way to the door of the hotel and asked, Editor-in-Chief Nie, do you need me to send you to your room? Nie Congcong smiled, of course not, thank you. smiled and said, you're welcome, Editor-in-Chief Nie, since you don't need me to send you back to the room, you can go up and rest first, my house is not far from here, I'll go back and change my clothes, I'll come to you later, let's go and see the house, I found three for you in the Agricultural University, you choose one of your favorite. Nie Congcong immediately agreed, okay, okay, smile, then we'll see you later.
Nie Congcong watched Xiao walk away, then turned around and entered the hotel, renewed the room fee for another day at the front desk, and went upstairs with the things placed at the front desk. When she entered the room, she turned the temperature of the air conditioner to the lowest, took off all her clothes, didn't rinse off the dampness on her body, didn't change into a set of comfortable clothes, just threw herself on the bed, at this moment, she felt completely relaxed physically and mentally. This meal was really tired, and Nie Congcong couldn't help but say dirty words in his heart.
After lying down for a while, Nie Congcong's sleepiness was gone. I don't know why, but she has a very strange feeling in her heart, and that feeling is called uneasiness. She also knows that a meal, a full meal, and a happy person are always the best ending, and President Zhao has arranged all the work of this new journal in place, on the surface, this is already quite perfect, where does the uneasiness come from? Nie Congcong couldn't find an answer.
She suddenly thought of laughing. Today, everyone at the table drank wine, and laughed and drank a lot, but, in the end, I felt that she was the only one who was the most sober, quiet and decent at all times, and did not say much. Compared with Zhang Xiaoqun, she is more simple, or her family environment is better, and she belongs to a beautiful girl who does not suffer much.
Nie Congcong was thinking wildly, the phone rang, she picked it up and looked at it, and smiled. Editor-in-chief Nie, I've arrived at the hotel lobby, I'm waiting for you in the lobby, let's go see the house together. Okay, okay. Nie Congcong agreed and hung up the phone, took out a pair of slightly flared jeans and a white T-shirt from his bag, put them on his body, picked up the bag and went out. Seeing Xiao Yi dressed like her in the lobby, the two of them couldn't help but laugh in unison, wow, dear, we bumped shirts. Because of the bumping shirt, and because of this uncontrollable dear, the vigilance between the two disappeared all of a sudden, and they went out hand in hand, like a pair of affectionate little sisters.
Agricultural University is very close to here, it only takes ten minutes to walk, the first house is on the first floor, the basic facilities of the house are good, but because the floor is too low, the house is too dark, and the house is in the direction of the north, it is not easy to see the sun all year round, Nie Congcong decisively gave up.
The second house is at the back of that building, in the easternmost unit, this building has three households in one unit, a total of six floors, and the house that Nie Congcong looked at is on the fourth floor, because there are two floors above, and it will not be too hot in summer. The house is an old-fashioned two-bedroom living room, the north and south are transparent, there are tall trees outside the balcony, in the morning of winter, the sun can penetrate the branches and shine on the bed of the house, and in the summer you can lie on the bed and see the lush greenery on the branches outside the window, as if it was the house where Nie Congcong lived when he was a child. Nie Congcong said to Xiaoyi, I think this is good, otherwise, let's decide, right? Smile and say, okay, when I first looked at the house, I also liked it here, you want to live here, I will come here often in the future, the environment is good, and it is very close to my home. After the two of them communicated, they smiled and said to the landlord that we rented the house, we will pay you a deposit of 1,000 yuan, you paint the wall, and we will come over at noon tomorrow to sign the lease contract, do you think it's okay? The landlord said yes. Nie Congcong paid the money, and he came out of the Agricultural University with Xiao Yi, who was chatting while walking.
As soon as she walked to the gate of the Agricultural University, Nie Congcong's phone rang, and she glanced at it, it was her boyfriend's phone. She replied to a busy message and hung up first. Nie Congcong knew that hanging up the phone was not a solution, and this matter would have to be faced sooner or later, but at this moment, Nie Congcong hadn't figured out how to talk to her boyfriend Zhuo Wenxuan, so she simply found an excuse to leave a little more time for herself to think about it.
As soon as Xiao saw Nie Congcong hang up a phone, she knew that Nie Congcong must have something to do now, and it was inconvenient to answer the phone in front of her, so she said, Editor-in-Chief Nie, we have also set the house now, how do you arrange it now? Nie Congcong said, Xiaoyi, I have an important thing to tell you, I hope to go out of the door of the magazine, we can be friends, you don't call me Editor-in-Chief Nie anymore, but my name Nie Congcong, do you think this is okay? Laughed, okay, Cong Cong. It's still early before the end of work, so I went to the social office office to find the office director and ask for the key to our office on the fourth floor, to see what is still missing in the office, and let them fill it for us. Do you want to go back to your hotel to rest, or do you want to go shopping on your own? If you want to go shopping, I'll ask my boyfriend to drive you there. Nie Congcong heard that Xiaoyi wanted her boyfriend to come over and accompany her shopping, so frightened that she quickly swallowed back the words of shopping, and immediately said, no need, Xiaoyi, I want to go back to the hotel to sleep for a while, and then think about how to carry out the work later, you see, today the president has completed the docking work of each mouth for us, and the rest is mainly my business. Laughing, that's too. It just so happens that the two of us are in one direction, so let's go!
On the way, Xiaoyi told Nie Congcong that she had been in Companion Magazine for less than two years. After graduating from college, she was assigned to a middle school in Luoyang as an art teacher, working for two years, her parents couldn't bear the only daughter being too far away from them, so they transferred her back, she just didn't want to go to school as a teacher, so she came to the magazine's art editing room to do design...... As he was talking, he arrived at the door of the hotel, and the two separated.
Nie Congcong did not go directly back to the room, but sat down on the sofa in the lobby. Looking at the people coming in and out of the lobby, she had an indescribable loneliness, and dialed two calls home, each phone rang for nearly a minute, and no one answered, listening to the footsteps of pedestrians coming and going in the lobby, she felt a little drowsy.
Suddenly, she heard someone calling Editor-in-Chief Nie, she was awakened at once, and when she looked up, it was Xu Zheng, the driver who picked him up when she came yesterday. He asked with a look of surprise, Editor-in-Chief Nie, why are you here? Nie Congcong said, I just finished looking at the house with Xiaoyi, she went back to the magazine to be busy, I was too lazy to go upstairs, sit here for a while, and when the sun is not so hot, I will go out for a walk and familiarize myself with the environment here. Xu Zheng said, in this way, then you wait for me for a while. I booked this house for the leader, I drove you out for a walk, and I also heard that there is a newly opened night market on the other side of Huanghe Road, and the business is very good, I will take you to try it.
Xu Zheng quickly finished the room and made a phone call, saying leader, I have already opened the house, you can ask someone to come and report my name. Is there anything going on over there at this point? If it's okay, I'll accompany Editor-in-Chief Nie out to have a meal and familiarize myself with the surrounding environment. After hanging up the phone, Xu Zheng said to Nie Congcong, let's go, Editor-in-Chief Nie, there is nothing to do with the leader. If he has something, he will let the office do it, and it won't affect it. Nie Congcong smiled and nodded
Coming out of the hotel, the sun was not so hot, the white crown was parked at the door, Xu Zheng opened the door of the cab first, he turned on the air conditioning in the car, and then went around to the opposite side to help Nie Congcong open the co-pilot's door, when Nie Congcong sat up, Xu Zheng had already turned on the music, which was very soothing. Nie Congcong was a little surprised, it turns out that you also like this music. Xu Zheng said that the leader liked it, so I downloaded it and put it in the car. The two men looked at each other and laughed together. Xu Zheng is not tall and ordinary-looking, but he is a delicate, very caring, and very understanding man, and he is the first colleague Nie Congcong came to Zhengzhou to meet, so there is an instinctive sense of closeness.
The car drove out slowly, and the bicycles on the street slowly increased, Nie Congcong glanced at the time, it was just half past five in the afternoon, usually at this time Nie Congcong was on the way home from work, she was a little homesick......
