Perhaps it was because the sunlight was reflected brighter by the snow that Shi Jiaojiao woke up earlier than usual. Before she could open her eyes, she reached out and fumbled on the bedside table, grabbed her phone and immediately retracted into the bed. "Okay." There were only two words written in an unread message sent by Tang Jianyu, and Shi Jiaojiao felt uninterested, "Why should I be amorous and report his safety?" Frustrated for a while, she finally decided to get up and take a look at the first glow after the snow outside the window after a long night.

The road surface of the community has not been cleaned, and it is not time for residents to go out in large numbers, and occasionally a series of shallow footprints will be seen, and the snow on the road is more snow-white and complete. Like the rich layer of snow spread on the ground with whipped cream, Shi Jiaojiao saw it for the first time in the city, which reminded her of the winter in the village, where the snow always fell so generously, and no effort was spared to decorate the field paths. She couldn't bear to get off her feet, but she stepped on the first deep footprint, heard the squeaky sound, and immediately ran like an addiction.

Because of the heavy snowfall, the people who went to work were divided into two groups: one group went out early and found that the traffic situation was not so bad, so they came surprisingly early; The other group is pinning hopes on the city to clean up, and at the peak of the season, it is blocked in various "rain and snow" warnings, and it is late to be convinced. Except for Sue and Shi Jiaojiao, everyone else on the twentieth floor belongs to the second type. There was nothing important at hand, and the superiors and subordinates sat together, and Sue tilted her head and said, "I feel more and more like you and me." Shi Jiaojiao blinked, "I brought it out by you!" ”

Sue took the receiver away, pressed the number keys randomly, and asked, "Did you bring lunch?" Didn't take lunch with me to eat. I didn't have dinner yesterday, where can I bring anything, but Shi Jiaojiao lowered her eyes and said, "I, I made an appointment with a friend." Sue raised an eyebrow, "Oh, it's okay, I'll eat cookies then." Shi Jiaojiao smiled awkwardly, "Eat cookies again, you're already thin enough!" Sue pursed her lips, "I like cookies." ”

Ten minutes had passed since lunchtime, Shi Jiaojiao was still groping in front of the computer, and when Sue went out to serve coffee and passed her desk, she wondered, "Did your friend miss the appointment?" Shi Jiaojiao smiled, "No, let's go out." "Actually, it can't be regarded as a no-show, after all, it's just Shi Jiaojiao's own thoughts. She thought that Tang Jianyu would definitely call her, so that there would be a possibility of having lunch together, so she set aside lunch time first. As a result, after Tang Jianyu came to City B, he gave Shi Jiaojiao all that was sent in the middle of the night last night, the word "good".

In order to prevent herself from meeting people on the twenty-third floor and putting herself in front of Sue, Shi Jiaojiao ran a street to find a restaurant that was still open, and when she returned to the office, her lunch break was almost over. "Zhou Jialin found you for a noon, go and have a look." Sue said casually, and Shi Jiaojiao muttered when she heard it, "What can she do?" While walking towards Zhou Jialin's office, she was the only one in the room, and she jumped up when she saw Shi Jiaojiao, "Where have you been, you don't have your mobile phone with you!" Shi Jiaojiao said, "Eat, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I had nothing to do in the afternoon, but who knew that Secretary Bai said that the big boss had a personal account to be approved by a private financial advisor. Just check the list and give it to him, it's simple, he'll come and pick it up before he gets off work. Do me a favor, I've got something going on at home! After Shi Jiaojiao inquired about the details, she nodded, "You just talk to Secretary Bai and that person." After Zhou Jialin thanked her for her kindness, she took out a stack of materials with various post-it notes from her feet, and Shi Jiaojiao's eyes widened, "This is the list of 'very simple' you said?" Zhou Jialin grinned, "A quarter, just check the sum, well, my computer is very useful!" ”

An hour, two hours, three hours later, Shi Jiaojiao sat on Zhou Jialin's seat, entered the last number in the calculator, pressed the "equal sign" key, and jumped out of the same number as the total column at the bottom of the paper. "I've finally completed this extra task." Is it all done? Sue, who had been in the office for a long time, walked in with a mug in her hand.

"Okay, I'll send it to the front desk in a moment!" Shi Jiaojiao patted the thick stack of papers, "It's hard to imagine that individuals will have so many account details!" Sue was just about to speak, when he heard Secretary Bai's voice coming from outside the door, and soon pushed open the door with one hand, Zhang Kun walked in expressionlessly, and when he took two steps, Secretary Bai closed the door and continued to talk to him. Shi Jiaojiao greeted Zhang Kun like Su under the leadership of Sue, Zhang Kun's eyes moved, and he stopped and raised a hand to signal Secretary Bai not to speak yet.

Secretary Bai was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Zhang Kun looking at Sue and Shi Jiaojiao, he explained: "The life assistant asked for leave, and Shi Jiaojiao came to help." Zhang Kun raised his eyelids, pointed at Sue and said, "You don't have to go to tomorrow night's drinking party, let her go." With that, he walked towards the door that led to his office. Secretary Bai followed behind, frowning and looking at Sue, Sue shook her head and replied, "Got it." ”

Shi Jiaojiao picked up the information and pulled Sue's arm, "Let's go back first, I'll ......" Sue brushed away Shi Jiaojiao's hand and said, "You don't have to be nervous, it's all the big boss's decision." Shi Jiaojiao opened her mouth and looked at the back of Sue leaving directly, without having time to say anything. She frowned, stood there and thought for a while, but still checked the information in her hand and walked out the door.

Shi Jiaojiao returned to the office after sending the materials, and ran directly into the room only to find that Sue was not there, and the bag was gone. She hurriedly walked out, just in time to bump into the oncoming Secretary Bai, "Look at the road!" Secretary Bai stepped back, his expression extremely disgusted, "Don't forget your righteousness and get carried away." "I didn't." Shi Jiaojiao replied, regardless of the other party's reaction, and ran out in a hurry.

Zhang Kun expected that Shi Jiaojiao would come to him. "Why?" Shi Jiaojiao opened her mouth to ask, Zhang Kun leaned back in the chair and asked, "What why?" Shi Jiaojiao closed her eyes and opened them again, "Suddenly let me top Sue!" "What are you? Got cheap to sell well? Zhang Kun raised his eyebrows and spread out a hand, "This is what everyone wants to participate in." The corners of Shi Jiaojiao's mouth turned downward, and she blinked, "Maybe, but I want to go home." "What did you say?" "Employees from out of town can take early vacations when they complete the work at hand. Even if it's you, you can't disrupt your employees' plans for no reason, right? ”

…… I didn't know how to deal with it, I thought she came here because of an indifferent sense of justice, but I didn't expect it to delay her to go home for the New Year! Zhang Kun felt incredible, and asked angrily and funny: "Do you know how precious this is and how many people and things you will come into contact with?" Shi Jiaojiao blinked, "When I'm like Secretary Bai and Sue, I naturally have such a chance, but there is only one ticket home." ”

The man pinched the bridge of his nose, not knowing whether the woman was short-sighted or deliberately raised the bar, he raised his head again and said, "There are still twenty minutes to get off work, and you still have time to collect the installation fee." The dress code and precautions for the cocktail party Secretary Bai will send it to you, from work to five o'clock tomorrow night, you have enough time to prepare, I will ask Secretary Bai to assist you. Tomorrow at half past five, a car will pick you up at the entrance of the building and take you to the venue. ”

As soon as Shi Jiaojiao took a breath, Zhang Kun raised his hand to stop, "If you don't participate, then on the first day after the start of the year, go to personnel to go through the resignation procedures." Now you have eighteen minutes left, if the elevator goes smoothly. Shi Jiaojiao's mouth tightened into a line, and the whitish part when she let go quickly returned to blood, and her lips were redder than before. She looked directly at Zhang Kun without saying a word, and Zhang Kun's eyes were undoubted. Shi Jiaojiao blew out of her nostrils, bowed slightly, and walked out of Zhang Kun's office in silence. Zhang Kun's hand on the desk quickly clenched and loosened, and he wasn't sure if Shi Jiaojiao would compromise.

There was not a trace of the heavy snow on the streets, except for the cold moisture that was damp. The lights of the shuttled vehicles were reflected by the wet ground into broken spots, and Shi Jiaojiao leaned on the pillar of the bus stop, her eyes playing with the high beams of a car. Sue didn't answer Shi Jiaojiao's call, and Tang Jianyu didn't call Shi Jiaojiao. Cars whizz past in the distance, leaving only passers-by with black eyes behind the bright light.

"Ding Dong!" Zhang Kun sat in the carriage without turning on the lights, and the mobile phone rang the prompt sound of the message, he picked it up and saw that it was an application for the installation fee sent by Secretary Bai, and asked him to verbally instruct the transfer first, and then complete the financial procedures tomorrow. He turned his head to look at the bus stop across the road, leaning against the pillar, Shi Jiaojiao, who was hanging her head, with a tight smile on the corner of her mouth, even if she was so arrogant and unreasonable, she still compromised, fortunately she cared enough about the salary.

Zhang Kun pressed the phone call from Secretary Bai, dialed a number, and quietly waited for the other party to answer. "Hey, brother." "Jianyu, did you come out of Professor Tao's house?" "Not yet, what's the matter?" Zhang Kun smiled, "I want to tell you that I told Du Lao about tomorrow, and he was very happy, saying that you must go and have a look, which will be beneficial to your future project." Tang Jianyu was still so hesitant, Zhang Kun said: "I have already arranged the admission, if you don't go, just tell Du Lao." Tang Jianyu also laughed when he heard it and said, "Then I might as well be respectful, so I might as well obey my fate!" Thank you, brother. "I'll see you then." What will they be like tomorrow?

Putting down the phone, Zhang Kun looked across the road, the bus stop was empty, and Shi Jiaojiao's shadow had long been gone.

Zhang Kun remembered the first time he saw Tang Jianyu, and as soon as he walked into the ward, he felt a strong loss, like a stripped fur rearranged in front of an injured fox. Tang Jianyu had a gentle and peaceful bookish aura on him, he knew that this was a temperament that could only be born in a stable and smooth environment, because he had it after the age of eight and before the age of twenty-one, but he would never have it again.
