Chapter 2: Deep Stars Fall into the Dust (2)
Since Gu Xunnan left, Zhong Mo often dreamed at night.
In the dream, he confessed to himself with a large bouquet of flowers, and then proposed with a ring. The dream was very unreal, and when she touched it slightly, it shattered.
Tired eyes opened, and the bright moonlight shone through the curtains on the smooth floor. Zhong Mo rubbed his eyes, took a few drops of the eye drops on the bedside, his eyes were cold, and he was cold to his heart.
The empty side of her body was already used to it, even before the divorce, she didn't have much time to sleep with Gu Xunnan. The last time he was warm was when he came home drunk from a party. If he was sober, he wouldn't have touched her. It sounds ridiculous, but it is.
How ridiculous, it's only been a year since I got married, and I have half a year to keep an empty house.
She doesn't care, she is an indifferent person, she takes everything very lightly, she doesn't care about the appearance of the cloud and the wind on the surface, and in the bottom of her heart, she doesn't know how deep the roots are.
It's 5:20 Beijing time, Zhong Mo took out his mobile phone and flipped through the circle of friends, his fingers unconsciously clicked on Gu Xunnan's avatar, looked at his information, watched his dynamics, and then looked at his photos.
My heart was empty, as if something important had been lost.
Seeing too much only made him sad, Zhong Mo put down his phone, closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
At about seven o'clock, there was an orderly knock on the door in the hallway.
Zhong Mo jumped out of bed, suddenly her eyes were dark, her mind was dizzy, her body shook, she barely held on to the bedside table to support her body, and after a few minutes, the faintness disappeared.
sighed lightly and rubbed the corners of his forehead, it's anemia. Her health has always been bad, although there is no serious illness, but the minor illnesses committed all the year round are also worth her anxiety.
The drawer under the TV was full of large and small medicine bottles, and she had never taken a single medicine since Gu Xunnan left.
It must be her door ringing, right? Through the cat's eye, she saw a man in a suit outside, and she recognized it as the divorce lawyer of that day.
"Hello, is there something wrong?" Opening the door, Zhong Mo's face was as cold as ever.
The lawyer took out a key from his bag, handed it to her and said, "Mr. Gu asked me to give this to you." He also said, "If you want to break it, you will break it cleanly." ”
Silently took the key, and felt a tingling in my heart.
Do you want to break it cleanly? Is it really disgusting with her?
"Okay, I'm tired." As she spoke, she was about to close the door.
The lawyer suddenly said: "Miss Zhong, look forward to everything, life is not only about marriage, there are better and better things worth chasing." ”
Zhong Mo laughed at himself: "This is also what he said?"
"No, as a bystander, I just want to give Miss Zhong some guidance."
"Guidance?" Zhong Mo was suddenly silent. Yes, she had long since been lost in his forest, and the green trees covered her as far as the eye could see.
"A wise man would not hang himself from a tree, let alone such a beautiful and dignified young lady," said the lawyer. ”
Zhong Mo raised his eyes to look at him, but saw that after he finished speaking, he only smiled slightly and turned to leave.
The so-called good morning in the mouth of others, in Zhong Mo's opinion, was opened with a key.
Would she believe the comfort of a strange lawyer? Who would be bored enough to worry about their own business? The key gradually warmed up in his hand, and then was thrown heavily on the table, the past that passed away, don't do it.
——————
In the office of the skyscraper, there was a sound of high heels, Zhong Mo was busy with the design drawings on the computer, and suddenly a document was thrown down the desk, and she glanced out of the corner of her eye, and the cold voice of the female boss came from the top of her head: "Zhong Mo, you have been fired." ”
The people in the same office suddenly fell silent, and the sound of needles falling on the ground could be heard in the air.
Everyone gestured to each other with their eyes and asked: Isn't Zhong Mo the chairman's daughter-in-law? How can you be fired?
"What? Don't believe me? The general manager has specially prepared a dismissal document for you, do you want to take a look at it?" The corners of the female boss's lips pursed, looking at Zhong Mo's eyes, full of disdain and disdain.
"But I'm not done yet......
"You're not a senior designer? What drawings do you want you to design? The general manager has arranged for the newcomer to come over, you quickly pack up, take your bags and leave, don't waste time! ”
After the female boss threw down a sentence, she didn't look at her, stepped on her high heels and twisted her ass and turned around and left.
Taking a deep breath, Zhong Mo put down the mouse in his hand and lowered his eyes for a long time. The female boss is right, she is not a senior design person, but she can enter the internal company only because of her ex-husband's light. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law prevent her like a thief, and now that she is divorced, how can she continue to let her stay?
Putting aside the dismissal papers, Zhong Mo closed the computer and simply packed up his things, big and small things, and in the end they were made into a whole box.
Colleague Aqing silently cleaned up her things and didn't ask why she was fired. In the past month, Zhong Mo's state is very abnormal, in addition to reporting work, she can not talk to her colleagues for a week, and she does not eat at noon, and she often looks at her mobile phone and feels sad, like a little hedgehog, not allowing others to approach.
"Thank you." Zhong Mo whispered. Aqing is a sweet girl, although she is usually very aggressive, but she is more attentive than her at work.
A thank you is a goodbye.
"I don't know why you were fired, but remember, there's no such thing as a barrier. If you have one, go and eat one, and if one doesn't work, just eat two! ”
Feeling a little moved for no reason, Zhong Mo nodded heavily, which was regarded as a response.
The desk was clean and there was nothing left behind, and there was nothing worth caring about in this place, so she turned around and left with the storage box in her arms.
The colleagues in the office all cast sympathetic glances at her, and when she left, Zhong Mo heard the comments of her colleagues, and she ignored those transparent pities, because she didn't need others to pity her.
"I heard that the chairman's family has always disliked this daughter-in-law, and now that she has been fired, the general manager is not facing her, I really sympathize with her." A female colleague said as if watching a play.
Another colleague answered: "The grievances of the wealthy are the most difficult to clear, and Zhong Mo's temperament is not fighting or grabbing, so it is inevitable that he will suffer." ”
Ah Qing looked at Zhong Mo's desk and was stunned and didn't say a word.
Walking out of the building, feeling much happier, she stopped a taxi, hugged the storage box and prepared to go home. I don't want to stay outside because I don't know where to go.
After staying in the company for a long time today, she hadn't seen Gu Xunnan until the dismissal papers came down, and she had always been the female boss giving orders, Zhong Mo was a little lost, was it so difficult to say a word to her in person?
The scene outside the window flashed blurred, Zhong Mo looked at the car window, there was really no longer contact between them.
In the office, there are all kinds of expensive items. The man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a long time, until he saw the figure in front of the building disappear, then slowly returned to the chair, clasped his hands together, and his eyes fell on the photo album next to the computer, thinking a little.
The person on the album is Zhong Mo, a photo of her happily eating a watermelon, with watermelon seeds on the corner of her mouth, and happiness in her smiling eyes.
