Xu Jinghao was so frightened that she couldn't move. She clearly heard that the voice was behind her!
Holding back her fear, Xu Jinghao silently counted three times and turned her head suddenly. From the corner of her eye, she saw the black shadow running to her left. Xu Jinghao screamed and was about to run to the right, but her feet staggered and she rolled around on the ground. I don't know how many chairs were knocked over, but Xu Jinghao felt a burning sensation on her back. The headache caused by the cold took advantage of it, and the back of my head hurt.
Xu Jinghao's heart suddenly rang when her cell phone rang, and it took her a while to react. He took out his cell phone and looked at it, but it was a text message from Du Xian. She opened the phone screen with great expectation, but she didn't expect to see this content.
"Sister Jing, Zhang Li is drunk. I need to send her home first and call you later."
"It's Zhang Li again!" Xu Jing was so angry that she wanted to throw her phone away, but she still couldn't bear it when she thought about buying a new one. Du Xian didn't come for a long time, and there were pythons in the company. Xu Jing didn't want to stay for a while, so she hurriedly saved the plan and went home immediately.
Fortunately, she didn't run into another python on the way out of the company. After going downstairs, she couldn't wait for the bus and took a taxi home. Because of the fright, Xu Jing had nightmares over and over again at night, and her dreams were filled with scenes of pythons eating people. When she woke up, Xu Jinghao found that her cold had worsened. After getting up, she was out of breath even to put on clothes.
Xu Jing felt like she couldn't hold on any longer, but she had to rush to the company because she hadn't finished yesterday's work yet. When I went out, my head felt dizzy, as if it was filled with lead, and I was still in pain. She was afraid that she wouldn't even have the energy to wait for the bus, so she would take a luxurious taxi to the company.
Normally, Xu Jinghao would be distressed and counting how much she had overspent this month. But this time the cold was so severe that she didn't even have the energy to settle accounts.
"Girl, you must have a cold, right?" The driver said with displeasure, "Don't infect it to me, I have to do some work today."
Xu Jinghao was originally in a bad mood, so she replied sarcastically, "Driving your car will cost you every penny!"
The driver curled his lips and started moving the car.
Arriving downstairs in the company, Xu Jinghao finally recalled what happened last night.
There is a snake in the company!
Xu Jinghao became timid, but thinking that Du Xian might be injured by a snake, she finally plucked up the courage to go upstairs. They must be warned!
Xu Jing felt relieved when she rushed to the company and saw that the office was as usual. Maybe the snake only comes out at night and is still safe during the day.
"Hey!" Annie came over quietly, startling Xu Jing. The gossip girl said mysteriously: "Did you know, Jiang Manman resigned?"
Xu Jinghao couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
"Who knows!" Annie shrugged, "I don't think Miss Jiang Manman can stay in a small company like ours for a long time. It will only be a matter of time before she resigns."
Xu Jing remembered Jiang Manman's reason for taking leave yesterday, and asked tentatively: "Is it because of seeing a snake?"
"You really believe it!" Annie giggled, "I just found out last night that Xiao Wang made up a lie to deceive me just because I told him about Jiang Manman's request for leave."
"The dog owned by the boss next door..."
"I was sent to see a doctor!" Annie laughed, "I didn't expect you, Sister Jing, to be fooled sometimes."
Is it really my misunderstanding? Xu Jinghao couldn't help but become suspicious. Recalling her experience last night, she clearly heard strange sounds and the thick and long shadow. What else could it be if it wasn't a snake
Xu Jinghao was a little unsure and asked tentatively: "What if there really is a snake?"
"Snake? Where is the snake?" In the ambiguous voice, a fat hand pressed on Xu Jinghao's shoulder without losing the opportunity.
Xu Jing was feeling guilty, so she reflexively slapped that hand and glared back. Unexpectedly, the person standing next to him was none other than his immediate boss, Lao Luo. Anne's eyes widened as she watched.
Lao Luo retracted his hand in embarrassment, his face full of displeasure, and asked coldly: "How is the plan going?"
Xu Jinghao stood up quickly, turned on the computer, and replied: "The draft has been prepared and we are preparing to finish it this morning."
Lao Luo was worried and had nowhere to vent his worries. When he heard that it hadn't been completed yet, his eyebrows stood up and he scolded: "It's not done yet? What's wrong with you! Are you just messing around in the company!"
The music started playing when the computer started. Xu Jing had an idea and explained: "It's basically almost finished, but there are still a few details that I would like to ask for your opinion on. It was too late yesterday to disturb you. As long as these few problems are solved , I’ll…”
Xu Jinghao was suddenly stunned when she looked at the screen and couldn't even speak.
The plan she saved on the desktop yesterday disappeared. Xu Jinghao's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly opened the recycle bin to search, only to find that it was also empty. Xu Jinghao suspected that the anti-virus software had accidentally deleted it, so she opened the anti-virus software and searched, but still found nothing.
Lao Luo noticed something strange and asked, "Where are the things you made?"
Xu Jing was so panicked that her head started to hurt again. She felt exhausted and her mind was in a state of confusion. She could only answer truthfully: "The draft I made yesterday, I don't know what happened... is gone!"
Lao Luo yelled rudely: "What's missing! I think you are obviously lazy!"
Xu Jinghao suppressed her headache and explained: "When I was working overtime yesterday, I saw a snake..."
"Snake?" Lao Luo sneered, "When did you become like Jiang Manman and talk such nonsense? This is a high-end office building, how can there be a snake!"
"But I clearly saw..."
With a severe headache, Xu Jinghao found it very difficult to stand up, and finally gave up explaining. She lowered her head and met Du Xian's eyes across from her. Feeling the care in the other person's eyes, she was annoyed that Du Xian saw her embarrassment.
Zhang Li appeared out of nowhere and joined in the fun, "Manager Luo, don't blame Xiao Xu, she is sick! Look at her face, she looks so ugly, she seems to be seriously ill, maybe It’s also contagious!”
"Infectious!" Lao Luo quickly took a few steps back as if he was electrocuted, and then looked at Xu Jinghao carefully.
Others knew that even if Xu Jing was good, her face must be very ugly now.
"Nonsense! Why do you come to the company when you are so sick! Do you want to infect everyone?" Lao Luo said as he backed away, "You can have a day off today, but your salary will still be deducted!"
"But what about work?" Xu Jinghao didn't want to give up the opportunity to compete for the deputy manager.
"Can you still do your job well when you're like this? I'll leave the plan to Zhang Li. Go home as soon as possible. If you're not well, don't show up at the company!" Lao Luo's indifferent words made Xu Jinghao's heart sink. Go down.
Lao Luo didn't want to stay in the office any longer. It seemed that the air here had been completely contaminated by the virus. Although the others were not present, Zhang Li was asked to supervise Xu Jinghao to pack her things and go home immediately.
When leaving, Xu Jing looked at Zhang Li bitterly. The face covered in heavy makeup smiled very sinisterly. Let the snake bite you to death! Xu Jinghao cursed in a low voice. In fact, at this point, Xu Jinghao was not sure whether there really was a snake. The feeling yesterday was so real, but in the final analysis, she had not seen the true face of the snake. I heard people say that severe colds can cause hallucinations. Xu Jing suspected that everything yesterday was just an hallucination.
It's Annie who just made up rumors about snakes in the company to scare people! Xu Jinghao thought she had found the culprit and secretly arranged this gossip girl.
The only consolation was that Xu Jinghao received a text message of comfort from Du Xian downstairs in the company and said he would come back to see her after get off work.
Although he is getting further and further away from his position as deputy manager, his relationship with Du Xian seems to be getting closer. It was a blessing in disguise, so Xu Jing comforted herself like this. When she got home, she fell on the bed and fell asleep.
When Xu Jinghao woke up, she found that the sky outside the window was dim and she had slept all day. Thanks to such a luxurious rest, she obviously didn't feel much better physically. She still felt pain in the back of her head, but it was not that severe. Xu Jing felt as if the pain was just latent, waiting for the right opportunity to burst out.
Opening her phone, Xu Jinghao saw several missed calls, all of which were called by Du Xian during the afternoon. Xu Jinghao secretly lamented that it was a pity that she missed Du Xian's opportunity to speak because she slept so hard. But depending on the time, Du Xian should have already gotten off work. Regardless of being polite or anything else, Xu Jinghao felt that she should take the initiative to call.
The call was quickly connected, but what Xu Jinghao heard was a female voice.
