One day passed and my dad didn't wake up. The doctor said that maybe his subconscious mind was resisting waking up. Maybe something in his life had put a certain amount of pressure on him and made him instinctively unwilling to wake up.
A week passed, and my dad still didn't wake up. This week, my mom started living a normal life, but she no longer devoted herself to work as before. She handed over all the big and small things in the company to the corresponding management. Spend more time taking care of my dad;
A month has passed and my dad still hasn't woken up. During this month, I refused to see Liang Sheng. I locked myself in the office during the day and at home at night. Liang Sheng came to see me many times, but I avoided him with various reasons. Well, it’s not that I don’t want to see him, it’s that I don’t dare to see him.
In March in Haicheng, the sky is blue and clear, with a few birds flying across the sky from time to time.
I used to envy Liang Sheng's office, which faced the sea and had spring flowers blooming. At that time, I thought how great it would be if I could have an office with such a good view. Now I also have an office that overlooks the sea level, but I no longer have the mood to view the scenery. The place I look at is the sea, but my mind wanders to nowhere.
He Bin knocked on the door of my office and put a document on my desk. "Boss, this is the provident fund and social security payment status of new employees. Please take a look. If there is no problem, stamp it in the lower right corner for me." "
I grabbed the glasses on the table and put them on. I glanced at them from top to bottom. I couldn't figure out why. I just picked up the pen and signed on the paper.
He Bin took the documents but did not leave. He looked at me hesitantly and said, "Is Director Shen still awake?"
"Yeah." I replied calmly. I am asked this question almost every day, whether face to face or on the phone. Every time I answer "Yeah" without any surprise.
He Bin opened his mouth, not knowing how to persuade me, so he simply nodded to me, turned around and walked out.
"Wait." I called him.
He Bin is the human resources director and is considered an old employee of the company. My mother gave him a salary increase of one thousand yuan and asked him to take good care of me. I can go to him if I have any questions, whether business or private.
I took off my glasses, walked around the desk and walked up to him, "Help me book a ticket."
He Bin was a little surprised: "Where are you going?"
"Let's go to Shanghai. I plan to go to the branch and stay for a while." Escape is not what I want, I just don't have a better way.
He Bin hesitated, "Does Mr. Zhang know?"
"I'll tell her."
He Bin could only nod: "One way or round trip?"
I paused. One-way or round-trip. I am going this time and don’t plan to come back anytime soon. “One-way, it’ll be in the morning the day after tomorrow. Then you can also send a notice to the branch office for me.”
"OK."
I specially asked my mother to have dinner with me at noon and told her specifically about this matter. I thought my mother would object, but she agreed without hesitation.
My mother said, "That's fine, I might feel a little more cheerful in a different environment."
"Then you have to take good care of yourself and your father. When your father wakes up, you must call me as soon as possible." I repeatedly told my mother, and my mother nodded with a smile, but the corners of her mouth gradually sank.
In fact, I planned to leave Haicheng half a month ago. I just kept looking forward to my dad waking up. I always felt that if my dad woke up as soon as I walked away, he would be angry again if he couldn't find me. But a month has passed, and I probably know in my heart that my dad may not wake up for a while.
I didn't tell Liang Sheng, or even Xuanxuan, I prepared everything quietly by myself, and then spent a day walking around some familiar streets and bays in Haicheng. The city was so empty, but the memories were fierce. , this kind of behavior is self-torture in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is the kind of closed torture with no escape.
The night before leaving, Yang Xiao came to see me.
At that time, I had just finished buying spring clothes and a large suitcase at Guomao Mall. I originally refused to meet him, but he said he had something very important to say to me and he happened to be near me, so I let him come.
As soon as Yang Xiao saw me, the first thing he said was: "You want to go to Haicheng?"
I put the suitcase aside and nodded: "Yeah."
"Where are you going? Are you going on a trip or something?" Yang Xiao looked a little flustered, as if I would never return.
"Go to the Shanghai branch for cross-training. It may take a while before I come back." Or maybe I won't come back for a long time. I said this in my heart. Faced with Yang Xiao, whom I didn't know very well, I didn't plan to tell him too much. . I didn't hide it from him simply because he was a loyal and honest person. Seeing that he was really worried about me, I couldn't bear to deceive him.
"Shanghai." Yang Xiaomei smiled. "That's great. Our crew will go to Shanghai for filming in a while. I'll go and hang out with you then."
"Okay." I replied with a smile.
He reached over and took the bag in my hand: "Let me carry it for you. I'll take you wherever you go now."
"No need." I declined politely, "I'm going to buy something else later. Don't you have something to say to me? Can you just say it here?"
Yang Xiao looked like he suddenly realized something. He took out two movie tickets from his pocket, scratched his head and said sheepishly: "This is the movie "Beauty" that was just released. The heroine is a makeup artist. I think you might know it after watching it. Some resonance, hehe, I even played a supporting role in it."
"Really? When?" I didn't have any intention of watching a movie, so I just asked cooperatively.
Yang Xiaomei smiled broadly: "Tomorrow night at seven o'clock."
"Uh, but I have a flight tomorrow morning." I said apologetically, "I appreciate your kindness. When you get to Shanghai, I'll treat you to a show."
Although Yang Xiao was disappointed, he was also happy, "Okay. I'll give it to you tomorrow."
I was just about to say no, when he spoke: "I know you are leaving alone. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I will take you to the airport. If you don't agree to such a small request, you really don't take me seriously." Friends."
".All right."
Before Jiang Duo got off work, I packed all my luggage, stuffing a suitcase full of clothes and cosmetics. There is also a purple lavender on the dressing table. At first, I changed it every now and then, but later I found it too troublesome and simply replaced it with a fake flower. The color is still lavender, but the fragrance is gone.
Before leaving, there is one last thing.
I grabbed the car keys on the table and called Xuanxuan.
I don’t have to say goodbye to anyone when I leave Haicheng, but I have to see Xuanxuan no matter what.
It happened that she was in the branch today, so there was no need to worry about meeting Yuan Sheng's acquaintances. I parked the car in the square, and Xuanxuan walked towards me quickly on high heels.
"Yanyan, I haven't seen you for so long, I thought you would never pay attention to us again." Xuanxuan curled her lips, her face full of grievances. Her 'we' is not just her, but also includes Liang Sheng.
I smiled and said, "No way. I just started working at my mom's company. I'm quite busy and can't get away."
Of course Xuanxuan didn't believe it. She held my hand and murmured coquettishly: "Even if you are in a bad mood, you can't abandon me as your best friend. Even if one day you really meet Mr. Liang."
"Xuanxuan!" I interrupted her.
She thought to herself: "Okay, okay, I won't mention him. Anyway, no matter what, you can't ignore me for anything."
I nodded, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
Xuanxuan smiled, moved her eyes to the car behind me, and asked, "Did you drive Liang's car today?"
"Yes." I handed the car keys to Xuanxuan, "I'm going to the Shanghai branch for cross-training for a while. Before I come back, help me take care of Xiao Ma."
The pony is the BMW car given to me by Liang Sheng.
Xuanxuan didn't take the key and asked, "Are you going to Shanghai?"
"Um."
Undoubtedly, they were some similar questions. I answered a few words casually, and then excused myself from staying any longer with the excuse that I still had something to do.
I deliberately told Yang Xiao that the flight was an hour late at 9:30. When I arrived at the airport at 8:30, I sent Yang Xiao a text message, which was an explanation and an apology.
Standing in the terminal, looking at the plane taxiing outside the window and the distance, I felt inexplicably sad. I took out my phone and took a photo, lowered my head and posted a Weibo message with four simple words: Haicheng, goodbye.
A few seconds after sending it, I regretfully clicked the delete button again.
That's all, now that I'm done with meaning, I no longer expect anyone to show up suddenly.
