When Chu Zhi was carrying a bag and rushed out of the company's office building, Lu Jiaheng just called.
He wasn't in the company in the morning, and he was probably busy all morning. He just heard from the secretary and asked her where she was.
Chu Zhi stood beside Jing Heng's huge glass curtain wall and looked at the people inside.
Inside the bright glass curtain wall, the girl wears a crocheted button-down shirt with a word-neck, a skirt that goes above her knees, and a dark green bag in her hand.
Her hair was loose and parted in the middle, revealing a clean forehead. Holding her phone, she looked at her with bright eyes.
She has changed a lot since she was in college.
Chu Zhi blinked and said calmly, "I just went to buy a cup of milk tea, and I'm going back to the office."
On the other end of the phone, Lu Jiaheng was silent for a while, then whispered, "This matter, I—"
"No," Chu Zhi quickly interrupted him, turned around, and re-entered the office building, "What are you? What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Don't worry about anything, I'll do it myself?"
He was slightly surprised: "Do you know who it is?"
Chuzhi stood in the hall and raised his head: "Probably..."
"Probably—" Lu Jiaheng chuckled, "Chuzhi, it is impossible for outsiders to have the corporate email addresses of all the employees in the company. This is done by Jingheng's people, and it will not be an ordinary employee."
"… "
At the beginning Zhizhi was at a loss again.
She stood at the elevator door: "Jingheng's? Who is that?"
Lu Jiaheng smiled right there: "Didn't you say you probably know?"
Chuzhi said "eh": "I thought it was coming..."
"Where's Zhuosi?"
Chu Zhi blinked and said nothing.
"The time your plan was plagiarized before was in Zhuosi."
"… "
"Your classmate who copied your plan is the man Zhuosi came two days ago. He went with you on the day of graduation."
"… "
Lu Jiaheng said lazily, "Huh? Let's talk about it."
"… "
With a ding dong, the elevator door opened. Lu Jiaheng stood inside with her phone held up, glanced at her hand, and raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you go to buy milk tea?"
"… "
Chu Zhi didn't speak, walked into the elevator with her head down, pressed the button to open the door, etc.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
The people waiting for the elevator outside were all standing at the elevator door, and no one came in.
"… "
Chu Zhi turned her head away.
Lu Jiaheng copied one hand into his pocket, and stood lazily in the elevator, staring at the people outside like a doorman with a hunched back and a cat's waist.
That expression seemed to say: I'll see who comes in.
Chuzhi: "..."
She let go, pressed the floor number, and the elevator door slowly closed.
Chu Zhi hung up the phone and turned around.
Lu Jiaheng didn't seem to have been interrupted at all, so he followed the words he said on the phone before: "You have been keeping me out of my control, so what do you want to do?"
Chuzhi scratched his chin: "But if it's from Jingheng, I don't know who it is..."
Lu Jiaheng raised her eyebrows: "Little girl thinks things are as cute as you are."
"… "
Don't you just want to call me stupid
Chu Zhi rolled her eyes and turned around: "You have finished speaking, what should I say?"
He smiled again: "In that case, you can do what you want, and leave the company's affairs to me, we will cooperate, and I will be your assistant, will it work?"
Chu Zhi raised her eyes, stingy: "I don't pay you wages."
"… "
Lu Jiaheng turned his head and looked down at her: "My wife is really strict."
"?"
"What about pocket money, do you have pocket money in the future?" He leaned over to approach her, lay beside her ear, and asked earnestly.
"… "
"Not even after marriage?"
"… "
"My wife is so ruthless."
Chu Zhi couldn't bear it anymore, slapped him on the face with a blushing face, and pushed him away: "Shut up!"
In the afternoon, Chu Zhi first sent a message to Xiao Yi and went straight to Zhuosi after get off work.
Zhuo Si was preparing the draft of the Jingheng project recently. Chuzhi knew how hard the advertising agency worked overtime, so she was surprised when Xiao Yi came down on time.
The location was chosen at the cafe downstairs of his company. The man rolled up his shirt and walked in front of her with a tired expression: "I didn't expect you to take the initiative to find me."
Chu Zhi took a light breath and pointed to the opposite position: "Sit first."
Xiao Yi sat down.
Chuzhi pushed him a glass of cranberry juice: "I don't know what you drink, but you must be working overtime every day recently, and I think you are tired of coffee."
Xiao Yi raised his eyes and looked at her with a complicated expression.
Chu Zhi tilted her head: "Don't you like it?"
"No," he pursed his lips and smiled bitterly, "a little flattered."
Chu Zhi was stunned.
"Squad leader, in fact, I don't hate you anymore."
Xiao Yi did not speak.
"At the beginning, I really annoyed you to death. It was you who told me that winning and losing and chances were not so important, and that learning something was the most important thing. It was you who told me that I could ask you any questions. , I can communicate with you, but you finally took my idea and changed my plan. I was thinking later, when you denied this matter lightly, did you feel sorry for even a moment? Mine? I think there should be."
Chu Zhi supported her chin, held a small iron spoon in her hand, and stirred the juice in her hand for a while: "In the beginning, it happened so suddenly, I was so angry, angry and aggrieved, and didn't respond at all. Come here, later, because my planning plan was really badly written, I only have ideas, and it makes me feel ashamed to compare with yours," her voice was soft, "" She kept saying that it was her own creativity, but the plan It’s so ugly to write.” “This kind of thing won’t be used even if you hand it in.” “The professional level is far worse than that.” Although I said that I have to do better, it sounds like it sounds good , but it's actually because I'm really scared to hear that."
"So I chose to run away. I used the fact that everyone would encounter setbacks to convince myself. In fact, I just didn't dare. I was afraid that no one would believe me. I was afraid that others would question my ability. I really, really didn't want to, Let myself go back to that embarrassing situation, facing so many people's pointing and doing some struggles that I don't know whether I can win or not, and that feeling comes over again and I don't think I can hold on at all."
Xiao Yi opened his mouth: "Chuzhi..."
Chu Zhi ignored him. From the beginning to the end, her voice was flat, with her unique softness, as if she was telling a story: "Now I don't think so, some things should not be avoided, yes Sure enough, I should get my things back, and I should admit that I should have chosen to escape at that time. In fact, a group email was sent to Jingheng's corporate mailbox today. Regarding my "plagiarism" incident last time, every employee received it. arrive."
When she said this, Xiao Yi understood.
He frowned and pursed his lips: "You thought it was me—"
"I know it's not you," she interrupted him calmly, "You know that Lu Jiaheng and I are in a relationship, you need this cooperation project with Jingheng, it won't do you any good, squad leader Xiao, you Do you do things that are not good for you?"
She looks too sensible.
Xiao Yi suddenly felt a little dazed.
Since high school, Chuzhi's feelings for him have not changed.
This girl is kind-hearted and has a good temper. She doesn't seem to be angry. She doesn't care if anyone gets angry with her. Her whole body is like soft cotton candy.
The first time he saw her get angry was during military training, and her ex-boyfriend came over, as if he had provoked her roommate.
Before Xiao Yi could figure out what was going on, he started fighting with them.
It was also that time that he felt that Chu Zhi was actually a little different from what he imagined.
She also has her own small temper and her own bottom line. Sometimes she is very confused, and her way of thinking about problems is also very special, but when it comes to some problems, she will also get angry and get angry, and she will be very neat when pressed. counterattack.
Xiao Yi lowered his eyes, and after a long time, he said in a low voice, "What do you want me to do?"
Chuzhi said calmly, "I want to hear an apology."
He sat there motionless, as if he hadn't heard.
"I don't want anything. You explain this publicly and apologize to me," Chu Zhi leaned over, leaning on the edge of the table with his arms and looking at him a little closer, "Squad leader, the core of the junior project is the your stuff?"
She stared at him without blinking, her big clear eyes like a warm spring, as if it could wash away all the sins of others.
Xiao Yi opened his mouth, and when he was looked at by such a pair of eyes, he couldn't say a word.
Chu Zhi was still staring at him, with a soft tone and bright eyes, but somehow people couldn't help but want to back down.
Things that are too beautiful always seem to keep those who are stained with filth away from approaching.
Xiao Yi's lips began to turn white, and he moved twice without uttering a sound.
Chuzhi looked at him: "You said it was yours. You said that if it wasn't for your discussion with me, I would never have thought of this. Do you really think that way?"
"Or, are you trying to convince yourself when you tell me this? In the end, do you even believe it yourself?"
She waited for a long time, but Xiao Yi didn't speak.
Chuzhi gave up.
She lowered her shoulders and sighed, she puffed out her mouth slightly, and spit it out with a "poof", like a bubble burst from a fish: "Monitor, thank you for your two and a half years in college. would like to be my friend."
Xiao Yi's shoulders stiffened, his eyelashes trembled, and he raised his eyes.
Xiao Yi still clearly remembers the situation in the conference room that day.
What did she look at him like.
It was grievance and anger, and incredible disappointment.
Her eyes speak.
When I look at you when you are happy, there seems to be light beating in the bottom of your eyes. When you praise you, you will bend your eyes, and your smile will be sincere and cute.
On that day, the girl trembled and faced the people in the conference room, stubbornly wiped away her tears, and looked at him with deep disappointment and disgust in her eyes.
Xiao Yi felt that she would never be able to forget the eyes she looked at him at that time.
He closed his eyes and murmured, "I'm sorry..."
"Sorry, I don't want to, I really want that chance, I may be crazy, but I really want to win..."
"sorry… "
Xiao Yi opened his eyes and looked at her, his eyes were red, his voice began to tremble, and he repeated the same words.
Like a confession room in a church, devout believers confess their sins to the priest over and over again.
It seemed that the shackles that had been tense for countless days, days, months and months were finally loosened, and something buried deep in my heart began to slowly recover.
Chu Zhi let out a long breath.
She smiled, her crystal deer eyes curved, even more beautiful than the crescent moon at night: "It's alright, then I'll forgive you."
It was what he remembered, soft and cute, with a little bit of cunning, like a clever little fox.
He couldn't remember how long she hadn't smiled at him.
Xiao Yi's lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but suddenly stopped, and looked behind her.
Chu Zhi also turned around.
Zhao Mei was still dressed in white business attire, her long wine-red hair was curled up in charming curls, and the makeup on her face was meticulous and meticulous.
She glanced at Chuzhi, turned her eyes, looked at Xiao Yi again, pursed her red lips tightly, and let out a short, sharp laugh: "This is what you said about 'a little thing'? What's the matter? Girlfriend hooking up with old love rekindled?"
