For several days, Han Mei did not call again.

After a short period of relaxation, Li Ji suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

He didn't want to get too close to Han Mei, but now that Han Mei really didn't contact him, Li Ji felt that something was missing.

He planned to send those books back to Han Mei, but after hesitating for a long time, he dispelled the idea.

After thinking about it, it's better to wait for Han Mei to ask, or she still thinks that she is looking for a reason to meet.

Liao Ying is there, and Li Ji doesn't want to go for the time being.

I can't say why, I'm a little embarrassed to see her anyway. In addition to the apology, there seems to be a nameless anger that comes out of nowhere.

Liao Ying must have sensed something.

Li Ji is like a child who has done something wrong and is worried about being found out by adults and scolded, and his heart is uneasy.

He put the set of books from the Rural Credit Cooperatives at the bottom of the bookcase, and only took out the training materials of the CCB to read.

In the past few days, Li Ji has thought a lot.

I feel that I still have to face the reality and settle down as soon as possible; It's not just about work, it's about mentality.

Don't think about it anymore, it's so ambitious. It's better to be honest, do the job at hand first, at least don't let people find faults.

Don't forget, it's CCB that pays its own salary, and it has to live on this job.

Liao Ying's colleague said it well, and the vice president of the branch is also very good.

Why do you have to be so brainless?

"The system is dead, but the people are alive." That's a brilliant statement. I just want to open more, not so rigid, be kind to others, and everyone is happy, isn't it better.

After listening to Wang Shulan's words that day, Li Ji began to wonder if he was too bookish and angry, too simple, and too idealistic before.

Thinking like this, I tried to comfort myself.

In the end, Li Ji actually persuaded himself, and his mood improved inexplicably. Some old offices are also brighter at the moment.

The days became calmer.

The people in the branch found that President Li had suddenly changed a lot. People are easy-going, easy to talk to, and business reviews are not so serious.

Li Ji experienced a calm and harmony that he had never experienced before. It's a little lonely and it's unsettling.

The weather is getting cooler day by day, and the occasional yellow leaves on the ground are rolling in the wind.

On this day, Li Ji got off work very early and prepared to go to Liao Ying.

It was Liao Ying who sent him a text message first, and Li Ji called back.

On the phone, neither of them mentioned the events of that day, as if it had never happened. After a few words, I regained the familiar and intimate feeling of the past.

It was Li Jixian who apologized.

Liao Ying listened, was silent for a long time, and said inexplicably: "Alas, look at your ...... as the head of the bank."

A dark cloud dispersed, and Li Ji was in a good mood. Just thinking of Han Mei, there was still a faint strangeness in my heart.

When Li Ji walked out of the office building, he didn't forget to say hello to the security guard at the door.

The security guard replied in surprise, he hadn't come back for a long time, and he couldn't understand why this President Li was so approachable today.

Li Ji and Liao Ying said that they would go to the Western restaurant to eat tonight.

It was still early, and Li Ji decided to buy a gift for Liao Ying.

He knew that Liao Ying had been talking about Nokia's new mobile phone, but it was always too expensive and reluctant. This time, Li Ji decided to buy it first and surprise her.

Li Ji went out of the yard and didn't take a taxi. He knew that there was a Nokia store nearby, not far away, and it would not take him twenty minutes to walk.

The sun had set, and it was getting dark.

Li Ji walked briskly, in a happy mood, with easy steps, and didn't notice that there were three people behind him following him unhurriedly.

Li Ji crossed the alley and saw that the Nokia store was in front of him. Seeing that there were no cars on both sides, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

"Oops, you hit me! Oops......"

Suddenly I heard a loud scream, it was very miserable.

Immediately afterwards, there was a "plop" sound.

Li Ji's eyes froze, and he suddenly felt a pain in his body. In a panic, I saw a person rushing out of the alley next to him and hitting his waist hard.

Li Ji was taken aback, stunned, and looked down.

I saw a young man in a red T-shirt lying at his feet, his eyes half-open and half-closed, his body twitching, and a cloud of white foam coming out of his mouth.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? You okay? ”

Li Ji was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and nervously inspected the young man's condition.

The young man was lying flat on the side of the road, his body stretched out in a "big" shape, his legs rubbing back and forth on the ground, and his mouth was whining.

Hearing the shout, he secretly opened his eyes, then closed them immediately, the corners of his mouth moved, and he moaned loudly in pain.

Suddenly, a lot of passers-by gathered around, chattering and discussing.

"It's obvious that this person hit the first person......"

"Why are people okay, but they fell first?"

"Yes, people walked well, and they didn't touch him at all?"

"Look, that white foam looks like tofu dregs!"

......

Li Ji only came to his senses at this time. yes, I didn't touch him at all, why did he fall?

was stunned, and suddenly two people squeezed out from behind the crowd and rushed to Li Ji together.

One of the thin men grabbed Li Ji's shirt and shouted, "You broke my brother, you have to pay ......"

"Compensation? Hahaha! ”

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd.

"If something is damaged, you can pay for it, but how can you pay if someone hits it?"

"What's the loss? It's obvious that he hit someone's ......"

"Let's touch the porcelain! Hahaha! ”

"Like! I think so! ”

"In these days, everyone really has it......"

.......

The other stout man was a little anxious, glanced at the crowd, and said in a vicious voice: "If any of you want to be nosy, you can come out and try!" ”

The crowd fell silent and no one dared to speak loudly anymore.

The strong man stepped forward and grabbed Li Ji's collar.

Although it was autumn, it was still hot, but the strong man wore a long-sleeved shirt with tight buttons.

Li Ji was strangled, his neck tightened, and he hurriedly broke free backwards, and pulled the thin man's hand off the front.

He flashed to the side, straightened his shirt, thought for a moment, and said to the two, "I'll call a car, let's take this brother to the hospital first." ”

The two people looked at each other, but said in unison: "If you don't go to the hospital, you lose money!" ”

Li Ji was suspicious, but he was anxious to buy a mobile phone for Liao Ying and have dinner together; If you go to the hospital, I'm afraid it won't be over for a while; So I didn't ask much, and I was happy to give money.

The young man couldn't see any injuries at all, it was probably three street thugs who wanted to extort a few dollars.

"Tell me, how much does it cost?"

Li Ji took out his wallet. There was the 2,000 yuan he had just withdrawn, which was going to buy a mobile phone for Liao Ying.

Li Ji counted out five hundred yuan and prepared to give it to the man.

He still had some pain.

Five hundred yuan, which is equivalent to a month's salary of an ordinary worker, should be enough.

Avoid disaster. Li Ji didn't want to entangle with these gangsters at this time, and he couldn't care about feeling sorry for the five hundred yuan.

"Ten thousand!"

The strong man said with a dark face and an urn voice.

What?

Ten thousand...... 10,000 yuan!!

Li Ji suspected that he had misheard. He touched his ear, couldn't help but widen his eyes, and asked again.

"Are you deaf? I said, 10,000 yuan! No point less! The stocky man rushed forward and said viciously.

"If you don't give money, it's okay to leave an arm!"

Seeing that Li Ji was standing still, the strong man leaned forward again, lowered his voice and said.

"Ten thousand? Grab the money! ”

Someone next to him shouted.

"yes, they didn't touch him at all!"

"Two hundred dollars is about the same!"

As he spoke, the young man who had fallen to the ground had already gotten up on his own. He wiped the foam from the corners of his mouth, shifted his body, and sat still on the ground, looking at the two men.

Li Ji felt that the situation was wrong.

These three people are clearly here to find fault, not like pure porcelain. The young man didn't have anything to do at all, he was just pretending.

Li Ji instinctively wanted to slip away, but found that the two people had already been caught between him, one by one.

The onlookers also saw that something was coming, but no one stepped forward, but they hid one after another.

After a while, only Li Ji and the three people were left on the side of the road. The young man remained where he was, like a mentally handicapped child, craned his neck to watch.

"Two, I didn't have that much money with me......"

Li Ji said, his eyes glancing to both sides.

Most of the onlookers had walked away, and only a few good people were still hiding nearby, secretly watching.

The strong man seemed to see Li Ji's thoughts, and smiled coldly: "Don't use your brain, you can't run!" ”

As he spoke, the strong man suddenly stepped forward, and one hand was pressed against Li Ji's ribs.

Li Ji's skin was cold. Subconsciously looked down, only to see that the man's loose sleeves were shining, and the cold light was shining.

Take a closer look.

In the hand of the strong man, he is holding a dagger seven or eight inches long!
