Chapter 34: A Brief Separation

On the way back, Chen Xiang drove, and Wang Yan sat behind. Chen Xiang asked Wang Yan: "How much money did you buy?" “

"Don't you know what you paid?" Wang Yan suspected that Chen Xiang asked knowingly, and he ignored the answer.

"Hmph, your family is really rich." Chen Xiang mocked lukewarmly: "Buy more than 2,000 yuan of clothes at once, your family is really rich~" Chen Xiang deliberately raised his tone, sounding a little sarcastic and a little poor. Wang Yan found that Chen Xiang had already torn off Sven's "disguise" in front of her, and his speech was either foul or poor, and occasionally spoke seriously, probably for work or to quarrel with her.

"No way, no one buys it, so I have to bleed myself." Wang Yan pretended not to hear the sarcasm, and deliberately replied in a serious voice, with something to say.

"Who did you buy so many clothes for?" Chen Xiang's voice suddenly turned flat.

"Show yourself, make yourself happy, better than anything else." Wang Yan also learned Chen Xiang's tone of voice.

"I think it's okay with that orange Chinese collar coat, but nothing else." Chen Xiang said leisurely, when he entered the mall to find Wang Yan just now, Wang Yan was wearing the orange red jacket.

"Even if you have vision, I'm going to wear that one on a business trip." Wang Yan said with a smile.

"You're on a business trip?"

"Well, when I went to Wuhan on Tuesday, the company held a branch meeting, and I was responsible for talking about "the image and etiquette of the lecturer", Wang Yan showed a weird smile on her face and said: "I'm not at home, you are free." “

"How long will it take?"

"A week."

"Liar! How does it take so long? “

"Aren't you free for a long time? After work, you can hang out with your buddies, drink and have fun, and don't make excuses if you don't go home at night. Wang Yan sneered.

"Nonsense." Chen Xiang said in a soft tone: "Wife, can you not go and let someone else go." “

"Childish!" Wang Yan said in a firm tone, "I want to go." “

Tuesday soon arrived, and in the early morning, as soon as the sun had sprinkled its first light on the earth, Wang Yan got up from the bed, quickly washed up, put on her newly bought orange coat, and simply packed some simple luggage and prepared to leave.

Chen Xiang also got up early, and seeing that Wang Yan was about to go out, he suddenly asked, "Wife, when will you come back?" “

"I don't know!" After speaking, Wang Yan went out without looking back, leaving Chen Xiang with an indifferent and tough back.

Also going with Wang Yan were Mr. Zhang of the company, as well as another comrade. They took the soft sleeper sent to Wuhan in the afternoon, the conditions of the soft sleeper seem to be much better than the hard sleeper, due to the price difference, the people who buy the soft sleeper are generally better economic conditions, and the whole carriage looks more clean and comfortable.

Wang Yan's ticket was separate from them, she was in the other carriage, her ticket was to go to bed, no one chatted with her, she lay down on the sleeper early, the crashing sound of the wheels claming the joints and the unique rhythmic sound formed by the countless wheels passing in quick succession, plus the unique whistle of the train, superimposed together, played the classic "besides-and-and-besides-besides-besides-oh" chirp.

The playing of the train took her train of thought far, far away, she remembered the scene when she first met Chen Xiang, and remembered the time when they first got married, walking hand in arm every night, and she still remembered his worried eyes when she first came out of the delivery room...... When did they become so strange? There was occasional contact between the body and the body, but the two souls were moving farther and farther apart. Thinking about it, Wang Yan's tears rolled down her cheeks unexpectedly.

"Dudu Dudu......" The mobile phone vibrate, and Wang Yan saw that it was sent by Chen Xiang, "Wife, you are not at home, I can't sleep." “

"Hypocrisy!" Wang Yan muttered in a low voice, turned off the phone and put it in her bag.

After Chen Xiang finished sending the message, he did not reply. I felt a sense of loss in my heart. He really couldn't sleep when he was lying on the bed, strange, it turned out that Wang Yan was at home, and he always refused to go home, and now that Wang Yan was not there, he could go out to play without any excuse, but he felt weak and meaningless.

For Chen Xiang, this brief separation is not the first time, but he has never felt more upset than now.

A kind of loneliness swept over, and he felt uncomfortable, and turned on his phone, trying to find someone to talk to. After turning it over and over again, I found that there are so few people who can speak their hearts!

After hesitating for a moment, he dialed the phone number of Feng Xiaojun, a classmate who had not been in touch for a long time, only to learn that Feng Xiaojun had already taken his daughter-in-law back to his hometown to develop, chatted a few words, and hung up the phone. I dialed my classmate Liang Gang again, Liang Gang had already gone to Xinjiang, chatted with each other, and hung up again. Called his parents, and his parents asked him, "Why didn't you sleep so late?" He was speechless and only asked if the family was okay.

Chen Xiang realized that in this world, only in front of Wang Yan could he talk about his loneliness without scruples like a child, revealing his helplessness. And Wang Yan has been hurt by him. He flipped through his phone, cleaned the address book, and deleted the mess inside.

I sent another text message, but I still didn't see a reply. Chen Xiang fidgeted, although he knew that it was late, he still couldn't stop dialing Wang Yan, "Hello, your phone has been turned off, please dial again later." Chen Xiang threw his mobile phone aside, crooked it at the head of the bed at will, and he also replayed the situation since his marriage like a movie in his mind, Wang Yan sold vegetables in the wind and sand, and when Wang Yan came out of the delivery room, the appearance of sweating prostration was vivid.

His heart twitched, he raised his right hand, yes, it was that hand, it hit Wang Yan's body, pushing her farther and farther, she didn't advise him what he was doing outside, she didn't urge him to go home early, it wasn't that she didn't want to ask, it was that her heart became cold and it wasn't uncommon to ask.

Get up and get out of bed, walk to the computer, turn on the computer, log in to the QQ mailbox, and a series of actions are completed so quickly.

Wife

It's the first time I've written an email so hard, I'm slow to type, but I want to write to you and talk. I text you and you don't reply, I call your phone, you turn off, I know, you mean to.

Wife, I was wrong, really wrong. I make so many excuses to cover up my mistakes, but in fact, the real reason is not anyone else, but myself. Suddenly, I realized that I was lost and couldn't find the way forward. For so many years, you have suffered and sinned with me, I didn't let you live a good life, and I made you sad, I am a beast. People make mistakes, and I know they're wrong.

Wife, you know what? Actually, I've always loved you, and that hasn't changed. You're right, it's my own mistake. Wife, I made you sad, I'm sorry for you, wife, forgive me, let's live well together. All right?

Love your husband

After sending the email, Chen Xiang returned to bed, thought about it again in a daze, and gradually fell asleep.

The next day, Chen Xiang did not receive a text message from Wang Yan, and when he went to work, he couldn't help but call her, but the phone was connected, but no one answered. It turned out that Wang Yan was doing etiquette training, and she turned her mobile phone to silent.

"Before we begin, I ask you to think about three questions. First: What is image etiquette? Second: What is the significance of image etiquette to us? Third: As lecturers, do we have any special images or manners that we need to pay attention to? Wang Yan said on stage with a calm smile, gently sweeping her eyes over everyone's faces.

"Okay, let's start with the first question. Can anyone explain to all of us what 'image etiquette' is? “

Some of the people in the audience supported their cheeks, some pondered, and some said: "Image is a person's external dress, and etiquette is the behavior when dealing with people." “

"Well said. Image includes grooming (appearance), appearance (clothing, personal temperament) and demeanor (speech and demeanor), of which the most important is the matching of image and personal and status. A good image is not only how beautiful and handsome you are, but also how beautiful and handsome you are, but also how your hairstyle, temperament, speech and demeanor match your personality, occasion, status and personality. “

"So may I ask everyone, how does a good image and etiquette help us?"

Some say, "It helps us build good relationships with people", some say, "Help us succeed", and some say, "Help us attract the opposite sex." ”

The audience burst into laughter.

"So, since image and etiquette are so important, how do we create a good personal image?" After a pause, Wang Yan said, "Next, I will make an interesting game with everyone. Now invite four gay men and four lesbians to come up. “

Someone took the initiative to come to the stage, Wang Yan said: "Now let's start our game, friends in the audience ask you to form a group, a group of five people, and we will come to the stage to score each group later." ”

There was a commotion in the audience, and everyone had already formed a small group.

"The game goes like this, I've got a bunch of men's ties here, ask our lesbians, put them on for our gay men. One thing you need to do is find the best tie you think is the most beautiful tie for any of the most suitable men's bands. Wang Yan smiled and said, "The group in the audience is optimistic about which girl wears the most suitable tie for this man." ”

Everyone was excited. A couple of lesbians began rummaging through the ties they thought were the best-looking and putting them on to the gay men they thought were the most handsome.

"Okay, now I'm going to ask these four women to stand on my right side, and the men to stand on my left."

The eight men and women on the stage smiled and stood as they were told.

"I would like to ask our gay man, are you happy with the tie that the lesbian chose for you?"

The first one said, "It's so bright, I think his dark blue color suits me." As he spoke, he pointed to the gay man standing next to him.

"What about you? Do you think the tie we lesbians chose for you looks good? Wang Yan asked the second.

"It's okay, I think it's quite suitable for me."

The third said, "The lattice is too broken, not the kind I like." The fourth said, "The color is okay, it's just a little plain." “

"Okay, can I ask our lesbians to help us explain how you thought about choosing ties for our handsome gay men?"

"I think his face is a bit baby-faced, giving people a kind and amiable feeling, and this red piece is quite suitable for his temperament." Said the female colleague who put the tie on the first boy.

"When I was choosing a tie, I looked at it again and again, and it didn't really have the color I liked, but I felt that his face was clearly contoured and gave people a more stable feeling, and this dark blue should suit him." Said the lesbian who gave the second gay man a tie.

......

"Okay, now let's hear what our group has to say. One representative from each group tells us the answer. “

........

"Have you noticed an interesting phenomenon that our gay men and women are actually more excited when they play this game? Why is that? “

"Because they think they're creating a new image."

"That's right! Create a new image. When people are creating a new image, they are very engaged and their spirits are uplifted. We saw that our lesbians were very involved just now. What about gay men? I'm nervous, I'm looking forward to it, right? And we, in the audience, are bright. Wang Yan smiled and quipped: "I believe that after the game, the female comrades will definitely have a special affection for the gay man wearing their ties." ”

"Haha..." The audience burst into laughter

The training is fun to explore and play with. It is in this form of intercourse that knowledge is transmitted to the audience.

After the meeting, there was a round of applause from the audience. Mr. Zhang was deeply satisfied with Wang Yan's hosting, and he suddenly found that this supervisor, who usually didn't talk much, was actually extremely alert.

This business trip was only three days in total, but for Wang Yan, these three days were a special enjoyment, she let go of her mind and experienced the joy brought to her by work. What about Chen Xiang? But because of Wang Yan's ignorance, he fell into deep sorrow. He picked up the pen and wrote a sentence on a blank notebook: "Summarize life and social experience, continue to study, continue to struggle, victory is in sight!" --Chen Xiang"

As if this kind of self-suggestion and encouragement were not enough, Chen Xiang turned on the mobile phone again and designed the boot display of the mobile phone as: "Don't forget the original intention, you have to always." ”

When Wang Yan returned home, Chen Xiang was lying on the bed, he didn't expect Wang Yan to come back, and a burst of surprise swept over his eyebrows, "Wife, you're back!" ”

"Hmm" Wang Yan replied softly, when she was in the unit in the afternoon, she had already seen the email sent to her by Chen Xiang, she was powerless to reply, but she was not stranded after work, and as soon as the time under the computer showed 18:00, she turned off the computer and went home.

"Wife, I miss you!" Chen Xiang hugged Wang Yan, Wang Yan did not resist, and let him hold him.

"Wife, have you eaten?" Chen Xiang's voice was soft and caring.

"Nope." Wang Yan's answer was brief and emotionless.

"I'll cook for you, what do you want to eat?" Chen Xiang asked thoughtfully.

"Whatever." Wang Yan's voice was indifferent, and he couldn't smell a trace of temperature.

"I'll buy some meat for my wife, wife, you accompany me to the supermarket, there is no food at home."

"And what do you eat?" Wang Yan asked curiously.

"I didn't eat it." Chen Xiang's answer was natural and plain, and Wang Yan found that Chen Xiang was a lot haggard.

Wang Yan walked into the kitchen, the pots and pans were dirty, they were not cleaned, and the floor was a mess. The washing machine was full of clothes and smelly socks. A sour feeling came to her heart, she didn't blame Chen Xiang, she suddenly felt sorry for him.

"I'm tired and want to sleep." After that, Wang Yan went into the house and fell asleep.

Chen Xiang was at a loss. For the first time, he felt that he had nothing to do in front of this woman. He didn't know how to make her change her mind?
