199 Temptation
Wen Yubai has received many letters from Xu Ninghuan in the past few days.
When the secretary said that there were her postcards and letters, she still thought it was a little strange, and the company's business contracts were usually mailed by courier, and she had not received the letter for a long time.
When I opened it, it was sent by Xu Ninghuan.
It was still a printed letter, and at the end of the letter was a new seal, this time with his surname, simply the word "Xu".
He said: "Grapefruit, see the words like faces. You're very busy today, I saw the advertisement produced by your company, it's excellent, I don't have so much pain in my body today, I looked out from the window of the hospital, I saw the rain in winter, I don't know why I remembered you, remember the umbrella you and the little sting sent me? I've kept it very well all the time and wanted to walk in the rain with you. ”
Wen Yubai admitted that her heart was struck slightly, as if her soul had been tempted.
This is the first letter from the adult Xu pen pal, when she finished reading it, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, she didn't reply to Xu Ninghuan, the next day, she received a second letter from Xu Ninghuan, there was nothing special about it, he was sharing his life, asking what she was doing, she still didn't reply.
The third, the fourth, all the way up to the seventh.
Xu Ninghuan finally couldn't help but ask pitifully in the letter: "Yuyu, have you received my letter, no, you should have received it, but I don't know if you opened it to read, I want to receive your reply, because if you don't reply to the letter, I will be discharged from the hospital and go home." ”
At that time, Wen Yubai was dealing with the adjustment of the personnel of the legal department, and some employees who were fishing in troubled waters had been working in the legal department for many years, so their attitude was relatively arrogant, and it was easy to be sued by them if they were rashly fired, and they would lead to lawsuits, and maybe the company would lose a lot of money, so she transferred these thorns to another new department, with strict business audit KPIs, and the managers were also very serious, but the business was very marginal, and there were salary cuts, after she made a decision, she didn't see these people anymore, Ask the secretary to help her decline the appointment.
She thought, anyway, these people want to fish, so let's go to this department to fish, and those who can't stand it will naturally take the initiative to leave, so that the company doesn't have to pay more.
When she used to be a part-time worker, she hated the company's side-kicking practices the most, but now she has the hateful appearance of a small capitalist.
She returned to the office and found a new letter on the table, and after reading it with a smile, she found a piece of stationery and came out, holding a signature pen, and she began to reply.
She didn't know how to describe how she felt at that moment, but when the first stroke fell, she seemed to see the little Wen Yubai, moving a small stool, sitting alone in the dim light, pursing her lips, and writing a letter to her pen pal expectantly and awkwardly.
She thought about what he looked like, knew that he was a rich man in the city, and his life seemed to be something she had never seen before, but she could only imagine something through text correspondence with him, and she thought of Xu Yin, and she wondered if Xu Yin was living in the world described by that pen pal.
He goes horseback riding, skiing, swimming, surfing when he's on vacation, and he still has the face to ask her what she's doing on vacation.
Xiao Wenyu was so angry that the pen was about to scratch the paper: "I'm going to swim too." "In the river of our village.
"I'll ride too." Ride the pig king of our village.
"Isn't skiing all about the mountains?" Where there are no mountains, there are so many mountains in our village, she can climb wherever she wants.
She also received a postcard sent by Xu Bipal from abroad, stamped with postmarks from many countries, the pictures behind the postcard are the scenery of the world, he said: "Hello, pen pal, I went on a study tour with my classmates during the winter vacation, I don't know who to send it to, only you can send it, and see the scenery with you." ”
Xiao Wenyubai is not envious, she is lonely, she also wants to go to many places to see, she doesn't even know what a study tour means, and what foreign countries there are, she rarely even goes to the county seat.
Many years later, Wen Yubai, who was sitting in a spacious and bright office, wrote on the letterhead: "Xu Bipal, I received your letter, I am very busy these days, and I will pick you up when you are discharged from the hospital." ”
She didn't make a payment, she just drew a cute grapefruit pattern according to her habit, but she didn't have a talent for drawing, it was like a lemon, she smiled softly.
After Wen Yubai got off work, she filled in the address of the letter to the hospital, and she returned home and searched for a long time, and finally found the postcards in a document bag containing her materials from elementary school to college.
She took a deep breath, she forgot that there was handwriting on these postcards, which was handwritten by Xu Ninghuan, but the handwriting when she was a child was very different from now, and it didn't look like it, so if she wanted to recognize it, she couldn't recognize it at all.
Xiao Jing came into the room where she smelled the white grapefruit, and she blinked: "Mom, what are you looking at?" ”
She sat beside Wen Yubai and leaned against her.
Wen Yubai showed her the postcard.
The landmarks of various countries and cities on the postcard, Xiao Xiao Jing knew them, but she hadn't traveled to many countries either, and Wen Yubai was busy working and studying at that time, and Wen Yuanhou didn't allow them to leave that place.
"Who wrote this to you, Mom?"
"Xu Ninghuan."
Xiao Jing's eyes were dark, and his eyes were bright: "Xu Baba has been to many places, and he also wrote letters to his mother." ”
"yes."
"I'll go to play in the future, and I'll write a letter to Zhou Luo."
Wen Yubai turned his face to look at her: "Who is Zhou Luo?" ”
"Zhou Luo is currently my boyfriend." Xiao Jing's face was frank, "I like him now, so I will write to him, and when I don't like him anymore, I won't write to him when I go out to play, and I know very few words, Mom, I can't write." ”
Wen Yubai chuckled, and the light in his eyes was long: "So, do you write letters if you like it?" ”
However, this is just a volunteer activity, and the only thing that can prove it is Xu Ninghuan's kindness.
On the day Xu Ninghuan was discharged from the hospital, Wen Yubai went to pick him up, Xie Yanzhou had not been discharged from the hospital, in fact, he could have returned to Xie's house a long time ago, the Xie family had a professional medical team, but he didn't know what he was waiting for, or what he was looking forward to, he just hoped that person would really want to come to see him.
But not once, every time he looked at the person who pushed the door in, it was never her.
And this time, she came to the hospital again, but she came to pick up Xu Ninghuan.
Xie Yanzhou stood at the window of the ward, the warm winter sun spilled in and shrouded him, but he didn't feel the slightest warmth, like falling into an ice cave, cold from the outside to the depths of the heart, even the cracks in the bones hurt.
He quietly watched Wen Yubai take Xu Ninghuan away with a little shock, the three of them smiled warmly, like a real family of three, and the parents of the Xu family also came, they were a little surprised, but unlike Xie Yanzhou's parents, who were impolitely cold on the spot, they still smiled decently and generously.
