Jiang Xue looked at me, paused for a moment, and asked, "What, what do you mean?" ”

I took the last puff of my cigarette, snuffed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, walked into the hall, stood opposite Jiang Xue's desk, and asked frankly through gritted teeth.

"I mean...... Do you want to go home with me for the New Year this year? You've seen my parents before, and my dad also came here once last time, and on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, didn't it happen to be your birthday? Then the New Year and birthday will be done for you, you ...... What do you think? ”

After hearing my confession, Jiang Xue was silent for about ten seconds, and her expression gradually became moved. She avoided my gaze and whispered.

"I'll go home with you for the New Year, this ...... How does it feel weird? ”

"What's wrong?"

"'Identity' is weird."

Seeing Jiang Xue say this, I thought about it briefly, and immediately understood what she meant, she felt that I would take her home for the New Year, let alone other people, even if it was us, it was very likely that we would have the illusion that we were boyfriend and girlfriend!

In my short silence, when I didn't know how to answer Jiang Xue's words, she raised her head and looked at me, her expression became a little more gentle, and she said softly.

"It's okay, let's see it then, because I just received an order yesterday, which was during the Chinese New Year, from the second day to the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and I had to shoot for these three days, and I was here in Kyoto City. So...... If I go back with you for the New Year, I may not be able to catch up. ”

I looked at Jiang Xue in a somewhat surprised tone and asked, "You took an order yesterday?" How did I not know anything about it? ”

"That's my own work, don't you know it's not normal? What's this. ”

Jiang Xue paused slightly, looked well-behaved and shy, and continued to me.

"However, when I heard that you invited me to your house for the New Year, I still feel very warm in my heart, Lao Xue, I won't go back to my hometown with you for the New Year, thank you!"

I hesitated for a moment, nodded slowly, and said, "Okay, then I'll see if I can come back early, on the night of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year or during the day on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and then come back from my hometown to celebrate your birthday on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year." ”

Jiang Xue nodded "um" to me, I was silent for a while, said "I'll go to the bathroom", and then walked towards the bathroom inside.

When I was walking in the corridor between the room and the bathroom room, I happened to hear Jiang Xue say something very quietly, which made me feel so complicated that I couldn't help but slow down.

"In fact, if I can, I hope I can go to your house for the New Year 'justifiably'......"

Maybe she thought I wouldn't hear me when I walked to the bathroom, but in fact, I heard it clearly.

I naturally understood what Jiang Xue's words meant, but I didn't go out to respond to her words, and at this time, silence was better than sound, but silently walked towards the bathroom.

When I woke up the next day, when I was about to get up and go to work in the cute pet club first, I picked up my phone to check the message, and found that there was a message verified by friends on WeChat, I looked at it, it was last night, when I went to the wedding, Lin Shile who deleted her friend, but she couldn't add me, but when she added friends to me, she sent a message by the way.

"I was thinking of asking why you left so early last night, but I didn't expect ...... You've deleted me. Jingfan, between us, is it necessary to be like this? ”

I just woke up, and when I saw the message from Lin Shile, I suddenly woke up a lot.

I was silent for a moment, and the typing editor replied with only a short "necessary" three words, and then directly blocked her.

In the future, we will never hear each other again, even if we remember the familiar mobile phone number, but we will not be in touch.

I simply packed up and changed my clothes, and then went out to work at the cute pet club.

Coming to the cute pet club, there are still more employees in the store today, they are busy outside, and I am working in the office by myself.

In fact, at this time at the end of the year, there is nothing to be busy with, nothing more than some daily work, and at the end of the year, there will be some pet owners who will want to board their pets in the store.

At about half-past eleven in the afternoon, I was thinking about ordering takeout, and after eating here it was time to go to work at the tavern in the afternoon.

However, at this time, there was a knock on the door of the office, and I responded, and then the person who walked in was Qin Weilan.

"Vila?" I looked at Qin Weilan with some surprise and asked, "Why did you suddenly come over today?" ”

"Come and see everyone, isn't it time for our store to take annual leave the day after tomorrow? I'm thinking of coming over at noon today and giving you a bonus in advance......"

She responded with a smile in response, and after a pause, she asked again, "By the way, Jingfan, is the Spring Festival shift schedule in the store out?" ”

I nodded and said, "It's out, it's just done in the morning." ”

Qin Weilan said "um" to me, and then sat down on the chair next to me.

I got up and walked to the water dispenser, took a glass of water for Qin Weilan, walked up to her and said with a smile.

"The matter of giving bonuses to employees, in fact, you can arrange for me to do it, this is also my job, why did you run so troublesomely to come here?"

"Thank you, don't bother......" Qin Weilan was silent for a while, looked up at me, and said softly: "Actually, I came here today on purpose to talk to you about something." ”

"Looking for me?" I pulled out a chair, sat down next to her, and continued, "Tell me what's going on. ”

Qin Weilan nodded at me, her expression became a little hesitant, and then she confessed to me.

"That night, I went to the tavern, didn't Jiang Xue happen to be there? She said that now that you have taken over the Hometown Tavern, you will be very busy, and I, like her, am worried that you will not be able to keep busy......"

She paused, looked me straight at me with a serious expression, and continued.

"Jingfan, I know that you actually have the same worries in your heart, but you are still hesitating how to tell me, right? So, I'll take the initiative to look for you, you see...... If you can't keep busy, then I'll let you go, and you can go about taking care of the tavern business in peace. ”

Sure enough, the careful Qin Weilan has long noticed this, and can empathize with me so clearly, even I can guess the careful thinking in my heart, you must know that she herself is a busy person, but she is willing to put her mind on these insignificant little things.

After thinking about it in my heart for a while, I finally nodded to Qin Weilan and said truthfully.

"I do have such worries, it's okay to be busy, I can catch up, the main reason is that the working hours on both sides are a little conflicting, and the tavern closes very late at night, and I have to come to work before nine o'clock the next day, but I feel that my body will be a little unbearable......"

I took a deep breath and proposed.

"Wei Lan, then it's okay, I'll resign as the manager of the cute pet club, but usually in the morning, as long as I have something to do, and the cute pet club needs help, I'm willing to come over to help, but you can't pay me my salary, otherwise I won't feel at ease with this money." It's good to think of it as a mutual help between friends.,After all,A few months of work.,I'm familiar with all the affairs of the cute pet club.,What do you think? ”

At this point, after hearing me say this, a smile bloomed on Qin Weilan's face, and she smiled at me and nodded lightly.

"Hmmm! Your proposal is good, so do as you say! Jingfan, I also congratulate you in advance, the business of the hometown tavern is getting more and more popular, come on! ”

"Thank you, let's do it together!"

You can't have it both ways, and this is the best solution.
