Chapter 23: A feeling of envy
The car sent Liang Yi home directly, and Master Wu asked, "Vice President Liang, do you need to use the car on the weekend?" β
Liang Yi shook his head: "I'm not going anywhere, no." β
Master Wu said, "It's okay, if you have anything, you can call me, I will come over at any time." β
Liang Yi: "You come to pick me up at seven o'clock on Monday morning to take me to the company, and have a good rest on the weekend." β
said goodbye to Guo Zhixin, and Liang Yi walked into the community.
It felt like a battle was fought in order to survive.
Relax down, slowly walk into the green belt, smell the unknown flowers, and the smell of camphor trees, there are children playing in the small garden, and the face is filled with a pure smile, Liang Yi inexplicably gushes out a feeling of emotion in his heart, for life.
Liang Yi realized that this community is very beautiful.
In the past, he was busy with work, went out early and returned late, and often traveled on business, Liang Yi's impression of this community was only limited to his own home, and he had never seriously walked around in the garden.
Liang Yi sat down on the stone bench and quietly enjoyed the scenery for a while, savoring the different feelings about life. There is no deceit, not only material, but also pure beauty, all kinds of intangible things, but they are all alive.
When I got home, I opened the door and went in, there were two pairs of shoes placed randomly on the ground, and the entrance cabinet was also messy, Liang Yi has always liked to be tidy, and the layout of the home is simple, in order to keep it tidy and tidy, but the mess in front of her makes her feel like life.
After changing his slippers and putting his shoes in the shoe cabinet, Liang Yi prepared to cook himself dinner.
Cold dishes, hot stir-fries, soups, and hot rice, I feel satisfied when I eat my heart's content.
Touching his stomach, Liang Yi secretly praised himself: My craftsmanship is good!
The next day, Saturday, March 19.
In the morning, Liang Yi jogged in the community garden, there were more elderly people exercising in the morning, an old man was playing Tai Chi by the small pond, Liang Yi also stopped to look at it for a while, I don't know why, I felt that the passage of time slowed down on this old man.
After the old man finished fighting, he nodded to Liang Yi in a friendly manner: "Newly moved?" β
Liang Yi vaguely replied "yes", in fact, he was the first batch of householders to move in, hey, for most people, he was a stranger.
I went home and took a bath, ordered a bowl of shrimp and wontons, made a cup of coffee after eating, and flipped out an idle book, which I read with relish.
When it was noon, Liang Yi didn't order takeout, but did it himself, fried a steak, with carrots, and some baguettes, and had an ice cream dessert after eating, which was another happy meal.
After lunch, the sweeping robot began to work, Liang Yi sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, and a pot of white tea was placed on the small coffee table, savoring it slowly.
Not long after, tiredness came, Liang Yi casually took a cushion pillow, half-pulled the curtains to block the light, and lay down on the carpet by the window to take a nap.
It's a rare weekend.
At four o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday, the mobile phone rang, Liang Yi glanced at it, and was not ready to answer.
It's Zhang Ce. Since the end of the party, Zhang Ce has sent her WeChat every day, Liang Yi ignored it, and stopped this morning, thinking that the other party had given up, but now he actually called directly to harass her!
Liang Yi didn't answer, and Zhang Ce kept fighting.
After a while, there was no way, Liang Yi clicked to answer: "Hey? β
"Hello! It's not easy, but I've finally found you. Zhang Ce's voice was full of joy.
"Is there something wrong?"
"Yes, please eat."
"Thanks, no, goodbye." Liang Yi was about to hang up the phone after speaking.
"Hey, wait!" Zhang Ce shouted, "Your company has a big project looking for me, I want to see the old classmates, understand the situation, appreciate the face, and do me a favor, right?" β
Big project? Liang Yi kept flashing some information in his mind, haven't you heard of it recently? blurted out: "What big project?" β
"Let's meet and talk, I'll pick you up, and you can get to the door of your community at thirty minutes." Zhang Ce hung up the phone first.
Belch...... Liang Yi looked at his phone, a little incredulous, this guy was sure that he would go!
Big project? It's impossible not to mention this kind of thing at a management meeting. Forget it, go listen to it.
Wash your face, put on light makeup, a casual beige shirt with a pair of light jeans, clean up, look at the time, and start to walk out slowly.
When Zhang Ce arrived, Liang Yi was already standing at the door of the community, looking at something in the flower garden, and looked very seriously.
"Didi", Zhang Ce honked his horn.
Liang Yi turned his head, then walked over, opened the door and got into the car, and sat in the passenger seat.
"Hey!" Zhang Ce greeted warmly.
Liang Yi nodded: "Hello." β
Zhang Ce observed the road conditions, the car turned around, and said, "Why don't you seem to be in high spirits?" Got something on your mind? β
"Nope."
"That's my reason." Zhang Ce said.
Liang Yi didn't speak.
The car went straight, and the green light in front of him began to count the seconds, Zhang Ce did not slow down, intending to rush over.
Liang Yi silently raised his hand and grabbed the handle above.
Sure enough, a sudden brake!
Except for leaning forward uncontrollably, Liang Yi was expressionless.
Zhang Ce smiled: "You are very calm." β
Liang Yi turned his head to look at him and said "um".
Zhang Ce laughed more and more, lying on the steering wheel, tears coming out.
"What are you laughing at?" Liang Yi couldn't help but ask.
"Youβthe way you just looked at me...... Hahaha...... that look is so interesting. Zhang Ce wiped his tears.
"Green light." Liang Yi reminded, and after a while, asked, "What's wrong with my eyes?" β
"There are two words in the look in your eyes just now."
"What?" It's really annoying how this person keeps talking paragraph by paragraph, squeezing toothpaste.
"Idiot."
"What?"
"The look in your eyes is like you're looking at an idiot, I, yes, an idiot!" Zhang Ce laughed again.
Liang Yi suddenly wanted to laugh, and hurriedly turned his head to look out the window.
The awkward atmosphere in the car is gone.
Zhang Ce turned on the music, and the melodious violin solo sounded, and Liang Yi was a little surprised.
After a while, Zhang Ce asked, "Does it sound good?" β
Liang Yi replied: "I'm not an expert, I usually listen to it occasionally, I think it's good." β
"Thank you." Zhang Ce grinned at Liang Yi, like a child with sugar.
Liang Yi listened again and asked, "What do you think?" β
"I think this violinist is a genius."
"Really? How so? Liang Yi was curious.
Zhang Ce explained seriously: "This person only pulls a few months, and sometimes he doesn't practice for more than half a year, but he can reach this level as soon as he shoots, isn't he a genius?" β
"Oh." Liang Yi nodded, "Then who is this genius violinist?" β
Zhang Ce smiled brightly and touched his nose seemingly casually.
Liang Yi didn't understand, turned his head and waited for an answer.
Zhang Ce parked the car, cleared his throat, and replied to Liang Yi: "It's contemptible." β
β¦β¦ Liang Yi was stunned there, his emotions were very complicated, he felt like he was being played, he was a little admired, and he was a little envious, and he couldn't explain it.
Zhang Ce opened the car door for Liang Yi, Liang Yi got out of the car, raised his eyes, took a deep breath, this place should be dressed in formal clothes.
glanced at Zhang Ce, who was also dressed in casual clothes, so he felt a little more comfortable.
The waiter stepped forward to ask if there was a reservation, and Zhang Ce nodded: "No. 1." β
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, please here."
Liang Yi was a little surprised, lowered his voice and asked, "How far in advance did you book today?" β
Zhang Ce replied in a low-pitched voice: "Two hours ago." β
"How could that be this number?"
"The original one gave up the appointment."
"Oh." Can it be like this? Liang Yi's head was full of question marks.
After sitting down, Zhang Ce continued to speak in a low voice: "The dish has been ordered, do you need to replace it?" β
Liang Yi shook his head, this restaurant is quite arrogant, you have to order when you make a reservation, the chef prepares it in advance according to the menu, only when there is a problem with the supply of raw materials, the chef tells you that you need to change the dishes, and you will let the guests have another chance to choose.
"It's okay, you can change it."
Liang Yi looked at the waiter, shook his head, and whispered, "It's not troublesome, it's good." "Maybe Zhang Ce is here for the first time and doesn't know the rules here?
Zhang Ce probed and asked, "I have a question." β
"What?"
"Why do we speak so loudly?"
Liang Yi laughed embarrassedly: "No why, no need, I didn't pay attention to it just now." β
Zhang Ce looked at Liang Yi and pressed his chest exaggeratedly: "If I can laugh at Pomeranian, I can talk like this for the rest of my life." β
Liang Yi: "......" but being praised is still in a good mood.
Zhang Ce is talkative, and he is very skillful when speaking, which can attract the interest of the other party, and can also throw questions in a timely manner, so that the other party can participate in the sharing.
Enjoyable meal, soon to the dessert part.
Liang Yi remembered the project and asked, "By the way, what kind of big project are you talking about?" β
"Your company came to me for procurement, saying that you want to put on a data-based system to cover the entire supply chain, and the final scenario is that the global CEO gets up in the morning and clicks on the system, and he can see yesterday's production, sales, cost and other dimensions of data."
Liang Yi thought for a while: "Oh, that's the global side of the dominant, there is no news from the Chinese side, and it is estimated that it will take a while to know." "However, Tang Yong should know about this, right? Didn't mention it?
"I'll just ask casually, the main thing is to ask you for a meal, we are also familiar with each other, and a group has done a project, how do you feel like you have an opinion on me?" Zhang Ce said.
"What do I have to say about you? You're too careful, I just had something to do a while ago, and I'm too busy. Liang Yi replied, bowing his head to dig desserts, a little weak-hearted.
"It's good if you have no comments, then you have to reply to messages and answer the phone in time."
Liang Yi felt like he had fallen into the pit again.
"I still remember when we did experiments together, I was always lazy, and you were very righteous and did all my work."
Liang Yi bent the corners of his mouth and did not express his position.
"In the beginning, I thought maybe you liked me a little bit, so you were willing to help."
"Ahem, ahem!" Liang Yi choked, this guy is really super narcissistic!
"Calm down." Zhang Ce smiled, "Later, I found out that other girls came to me, and there was nothing abnormal when you received it, so I knew that it shouldn't be." β
Reception? Really good at using words! Liang Yi was helpless.
"I thought, why are you?"
Zhang Ce looked at Liang Yi and didn't speak, Liang Yi waited for a while, understood that people were waiting for his answer, thought about it, and said, "I don't remember." "The truth hurts, Liang Yi chooses white lies.
"Hah! I knew it. "I know you're going to answer that, do you think I'm right?" β
Liang Yi looked at Zhang Ce.
Zhang Ce put on a serious face: "You must think so, this flowery carrot, hurry up and die, don't get in the way here!" Without you, it would have been easier for me to complete the experiment. β
After speaking, Zhang Ce squeezed his eyes at Liang Yi, with a smile on his face, and that expression looked particularly interesting.
Liang Yi suddenly understood why he felt envious, Zhang Ce lived a very natural life, he could be with whoever he wanted, change his major if he wanted to, start a business if he wanted to start a business, say it if he wanted to, laugh if he wanted to...... He lived out his life completely!
