At seven o'clock in the morning, Tianhe was awakened by a sound, looked up at the computer screen, and then looked down at the blanket on his lap.
The cleaning staff was shaking the garbage bags, Tianhe raised his feet, pulled the blanket, and hurriedly said, "Thank you."
Tianhe stretched his waist, then looked down at the blanket on his body, with a puzzled expression on his face.
Tianhe: "Who gave it to me?"
Pro: "It's not easy to put a blanket on your lap. I can restore the scene for you... First, you lie on the desk, and the other party must hold the blanket, kneel in front of the desk, and bow halfway. Climb in...”
Tianhe entered a few commands and said, "Hang into the analysis system to see the results." Then he checked the execution effect of the program and began to troubleshoot the few bugs.
"The completion rate is 1.13%." Tianhe murmured, "This task is more difficult than I imagined."
Pro: "There are still eighty-four days and seventeen hours, thirteen minutes and twenty-one seconds until New Year's Day. You are fully capable."
Tianhe: "Yes."
Tianhe got up and poured a cup of coffee, the office was empty, with last night's bento on the table, Tianhe handed it to the cleaning staff, and Pu Luo: "I just want to remind you to pay attention to the owner of this blanket..."
Tianhe said, "Search in the database and compare."
At nine o'clock, the employees punched in one after another and came in to work. Tianhe kept staring at the screen with a half cup of cold coffee and a folded blanket by his hand.
At ten o'clock, the sister at the front desk came and brought Tianhe toothpaste, toothbrush, and towels.
The front desk said: "Didn't you go back last night? You stayed at the company all night on the first day? There is a bathroom next to the toilet, so you can go and take a shower."
Tianhe nodded, put the computer on and let Pu Luo execute it by himself, and went to brush his teeth and wash his face.
Tuesday is the day with the most meetings in Qingsong, large and small meetings are held, and a group of people come and go.
At 11:50, Tianhe felt relieved and leaned on the swivel chair.
Pro: "I'm like an alarm clock that's been taken apart and put back together."
Tianhe smiled and said, "It's only a small part, I just opened your shell, how do you feel now?"
Pro: "It's much better, now hack into the backstage of the US Department of Defense, it only takes 233 years..."
"Forget it, are you still smashing the U.S. Department of Defense?" Tianhe said, "I need you to stand by for an hour, and don't activate any functions during this time."
"Hi! Little tailor." Tong Kai said in an enthusiastic voice.
"Hi, Balzac." Tianhe took off his earphones.
Tong Kai: "You actually entered Qingsong's door twice. Mario lost the bet. Although I don't think he will really give it."
"Only once, to be precise." Tianhe replied, "You haven't won yet."
Tong Kai said: "Take you for lunch? I know there is a Guilin rice noodle shop downstairs, you must like it."
When it was time for lunch break, Guan Yue came out again, all the employees nodded hurriedly, but when Guan Yue passed by them, he just glanced casually.
"Let's go!" Tianhe was in a good mood today, and at the same time saw Jiang Zijian's message on his phone, asking him to have dinner in the next few days.
There are large and small restaurants near the International Finance Center, most of which are fast food restaurants for office workers, or high-end restaurant brands for meeting customers at noon. Yes, presumably not too bad.
"Hey, Boss?" Tong Kai appeared back and forth, as if tentatively walking on a catwalk, one step, two steps, when he arrived at the hall, he saw Guan Yue at the door, waiting for the driver to drive over.
The company car stopped and the driver got down and opened the door.
"Mr. Guan?" Tong Kai said, "Where are you busy?"
Guan Yue wore sunglasses and glanced at the two of them, asking where are you going
Tianhe guessed that he had an appointment at noon to talk about something, so he casually said, "We are going to eat Guilin rice noodles, shall we come together?"
With a gesture, Guan Yue sent the driver away, turned around and walked towards them.
Tong Kai: "..."
Tianhe: "..."
Tianhe and Tong Kai looked at each other speechlessly, but Guan Yue raised his eyebrows, meaning "Let's go?", so the two had to walk ahead in embarrassment.
"That..." Tianhe said, "Mr. Guan, if you have something to do, go and do it. I just said it casually."
"Pushed." Guan Yue replied.
Tong Kai: "It's really bad to delay your working time..."
Tianhe: "I'm really just out of courtesy."
Guan Yue: "Pretend I don't exist."
How can Tianhe think that you don't exist? But Tong Kai said: "That's fine, we will really treat you as if you don't exist!"
Tong Kai led the two of them to line up outside a rice noodle shop on the side of the Huanjin Center and behind the customs. This place was full of office workers who came to eat at noon. Tian He looked at the types of rice noodles on the wall and wanted to eat everything. It had been a long time since he stood in line like this. The last time was five years ago in the Civic Center in London.
"There are so many people," Tianhe said, "the taste must be very good."
Tong Kai and Guan Yue stood in front of each other, protecting Tianhe, like two bodyguards waiting in front of the restaurant. Guan Yue lowered his head slightly, and his dark glasses reflected Tianhe's face.
Tong Kai: "I guess you only willingly line up when you are looking at the Mona Lisa."
Tianhe said: "No, there is no queue to see the Mona Lisa, someone will reserve the Louvre before going."
Tong Kai: "Won't you be scolded like Beyoncé?"
Tianhe: "It's fine to find someone to do public relations."
The office workers queuing up looked at the three of them with strange eyes.
Guan Yue wore sunglasses all the time, didn't speak or look at his phone, just stood there quietly. At noon, the stage was turned very quickly, and after waiting for half an hour, it was our turn. Tianhe suddenly found that occasionally queuing up was fun, and slowly approaching the finish line gave people a sense of accomplishment.
The small restaurant was greasy, so the proprietress took a rag and wiped it casually. After Guan Yue sat down, the three of them were silent.
Tong Kai: "According to the normal direction, should someone among the three of us take a few paper towels and wipe the table."
Tianhe: "Tell it as if you wash the clothes yourself."
Guan Yue took a tissue and wiped the table slowly twice.
Tong Kai: "It's the first time in your life to work in a company, how do you feel?"
Tianhe: "It's okay, everyone seems to be very curious about me."
Tong Kai said, "Curious about you, or about your relationship with Mr. Guan?"
Tianhe: "Have you both?"
Guan Yue remained silent.
Tong Kai looked down at his phone again, and said, "How can two people who love each other but reject each other get together?"
Tianhe caught a glimpse of Tong Kai sending messages to Jiang Zijian, but Jiang Zijian was just indifferent, replying with expressions from time to time, and the chat history was scrolling very slowly, Tong Kai blocked it with his hand to prevent Guan Yue from looking, and turned to let Tianhe Looking at the chat records, it means to help him as a staff officer.
Tianhe thought for a while and said, "Don't expect too much, start with friends first. If you don't have expectations, you are destined not to be disappointed."
This sentence seemed to wake up Tong Kai suddenly, Tong Kai nodded, and replied: "Well, don't rush to get married as soon as you come up. I have a little feeling of being in love right now."
Tianhe was starving to death, thinking why my rice noodles haven't come yet? Fans of Guan Yue and Tong Kai are here.
Putting one hand on the edge of the bowl, Guan Yue pushed Tianhe slightly, signaling that you should eat this first? Tianhe waved his hand, waited for his own, and then looked at Guan Yue, wondering if you would wear sunglasses for lunch later, but Guan Yue took off his sunglasses. The eyes have dark circles that are not obvious after staying up late.
Neither Tong Kai nor Guan Yue moved their chopsticks, they waited with Tianhe.
"He doesn't talk, he just sends me expressions." Tong Kai said.
Tianhe just smiled and said nothing, took Tong Kai's phone, sent a "hungry" emoji, and then sent: [I'm starving to death.]
Sure enough, this sentence successfully hooked Jiang Zijian's words. Jiang Zijian is an awkward guy emotionally, but once someone asks him for care, his knight heart will explode instantly and tell the other party to go to lunch immediately.
Tong Kai started teasing Jiang Zijian intently, and then asked, "Tianhe, which is the most romantic confession you've ever heard?"
Tianhe: "I won't tell you."
The rice noodles finally arrived, a bowl of rice noodles, topped with neat, fat and thin char siew, with green lettuce on the bottom, sprinkled with crispy fried peanuts, it is fragrant. Tianhe immediately picked up the chopsticks, and the three of them started in tacit agreement.
"How?" Tong Kai smiled.
Tianhe motioned Tong Kai to look at his empty bowl. This was the highest evaluation he could give the chef.
Tong Kai: "Then next time you come again, you won't have to wait in line."
Tianhe: "I don't hate queuing, especially with interesting people."
Tong Kai said with emotion: "Following this sentence, you will never be allowed to wait in line for dinner in this life."
Tong Kai went back to the law firm after lunch, while Guan Yue and Tianhe stood outside the elevator.
"What are you thinking?" Guan Yue said suddenly.
Tianhe turned his head to look at Guan Yue, who was half a head taller than him, and suspected that this guy was already 1.9 meters tall.
"There is something wrong with the algorithm of this elevator." Tianhe said, "I can improve it a little bit."
Every time I come to Qingsong Tianhe, I find it very troublesome, and I have to transfer to the elevator in the middle.
"Hi, boss." Qingsong's employees came back in twos and threes, greeted Guan Yue after seeing the two of them.
Guan Yue nodded, when he entered the elevator, there was silence, Tianhe knew that the employees must be watching them both.
"If you want to be yourself, just be yourself," Guan Yue said suddenly in the quiet elevator, "Don't care about other people's opinions and comments."
The elevator was quiet, and the Qingsong employees in all directions held their breath, not daring to look at the two of them through the elevator door mirror.
Guan Yue was wearing sunglasses, so he couldn't tell if he was happy or angry.
"Thank you Mr. Guan for your understanding," Tianhe said, "I've always been myself."
The elevator door opened, and the employees took a step back, waiting for Guan Yue to leave first, but Guan Yue was waiting for Tianhe to leave first, Tianhe made a gesture of please, Guan Yue realized it, and left first. Only then did Tianhe go out with him.
The people in the elevator were dumbfounded and in extreme shock. They were so shocked that they forgot to block the door to get out of the elevator, so the elevator door slowly closed again, bringing the entire elevator full of Qingsong employees back to the first floor.
"I've been here for a year," the elevator started to discuss, "It's the first time I heard his voice, so the boss can talk!"
"I've been here for two years, and I've only heard him say 'uh' and 'um'!"
The standby time of Prometheus was over, and for a whole afternoon, Tianhe connected to the quantitative trading system, and began to improve his signature software with the help of Prometheus. In this way, Tianhe is much more relaxed.
"The prediction probability still cannot be significantly improved." Tianhe murmured.
"You need to find a new bootstrap formula," says Pro, "and that's critical."
"I know." Tianhe said a little discouraged, "I can barely count as Quant, maybe I have to make an appointment to go back to London or Berlin and play Texas Hold'em with my brothers."
"Attention, the exit is restricted." Pro said, "You can't tell the customs that the important thing to leave the country is to play cards."
Some of Tianhe’s academic exchanges and seeking help when he was still studying were all done through the poker games in the computer club every Friday. Most of the brothers who were comparable to him stayed in London after graduation, and some of them were in Berlin.
"I need to discover a new guiding formula and improve the algorithm." Tianhe finally admitted, otherwise, no matter how perfect the software is, it still lacks the most competitive point.
Pro: "I just said it five minutes ago. I think you don't plan to live in the company today. I have already sent a message to the driver for you. Guan Yue also needs to rest. He didn't sleep last night. He will stay with you all night. May die suddenly."
"What, are you off work yet? Are you sure Guan Yue didn't sleep a wink last night..." Tianhe realized that the sun was about to set and he had to go home to take a shower today, so he left the office with his computer in his arms, and went downstairs with his employees. After exchanging a few pleasantries, everyone nodded to him in a friendly manner. Tianhe is now full of work and absent-minded. Under the attention of everyone, he entered the Rolls Royce waiting outside the HSBC building and walked away.
Aunt Fang prepared dinner, sat aside, and said with a smile, "You're so busy when you just started working?"
Tianhe is very preoccupied. He needs at least five to six new guiding formulas and improved algorithms to build his quantitative trading and analysis system of the two major signature products. These problems are more complicated than imagined, and now they are obviously stuck. It is necessary to find a big cow who is proficient in finance and economics to give him advice.
"Aunt Fang, do you know platinum bags?" Tianhe asked Aunt Chaofang.
"Of course." Aunt Fang stood up with a smile, "Every girl should have a platinum bag in her life."
Aunt Fang showed Tianhe a very ordinary handbag, smiled and said, "This was given to me by your grandma thirty years ago."
Tianhe couldn't tell that it had been so long, so he told Aunt Fang about the little sister's request, and said, "She takes good care of me."
"Okay." Aunt Fang said, "I'll call the store and ask. Does she like birkin or kelly?"
Tianhe: "???"
Aunt Fang smiled softly: "Forget it, boys don't understand these things, so go to bed early after eating, because you have to go to work tomorrow."
Three days later, the entire Qingsong, plus the investment companies on the lower three floors were all boiling.
Four clerks were dressed in suits and gloves, and entered Qingsong Company with twelve bags. The twelve latest platinum bags were lined up and placed on the sofa.
"Go and choose one." Tianhe was having a headache with his work, and said to the girl without raising his head, "I don't know what color you like, so you don't have to pay me, you're welcome."
"If you don't like anything," said a clerk, "we'll tell the headquarters and we'll send a new batch next week."
Girl: "..."
"Yo." Tong Kai said, "What is this? You changed your business to sell luxury goods? Hey, little tailor! Do you still eat Guilin rice noodles today?" He turned sideways and sat on the edge of Tianhe's table.
Tianhe: "Okay, okay! But the meal that Aunt Fang brought me..."
Tong Kai said: "Let's go, let's eat rice noodles, and I just wanted to ask you something. Come on, Mario, I invite you to eat fish maw, winter bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms and chicken bowl. The other one is hot, and it's for the poor Mr. Guan to eat, no need Thanks."
At noon that day, while eating Tianhe's lunch, Mario scolded the happy front desk girl who had just received a Birkin bag.
Tianhe was brought by Tong Kai to the Guilin rice noodle shop. Inside, there was a small sterling silver stand on the seat where the three of them sat last time: "Reserve your seat, Nuolin Office". The customer saw the silver sign They all tactfully stopped coming to sit down, and no one wanted to mess with Nuolin.
Tianhe: "There's really no need to line up."
Tong Kai: "Well, I bought this rice noodle shop."
Tianhe held a chopstick in each hand and stood on the table, feeling a long-lost, simple little happiness: "But I will always get tired of eating."
Tong Kai: "I'll buy you that eel rice next week. It's also delicious."
Other people's "I'll buy that store for you" means "buy that store's takeaway", while Tong Kai's "buy that store" means buying the whole store in a serious manner, just to avoid standing in line.
"... Please answer him for me, I plan to find him this week and go to his hotel to make a surprise attack... He has been promoted now, and he is the captain of the doorman."
Tianhe was taken aback and said, "Don't do this, you listen to me, honesty is the most important point in love. Why not be more honest?"
"Hmm..." Tong Kai was carefully chewing on the meaning behind every emoji that Jiang Zijian sent. I couldn't help but want to find him, it was quite tangled.
"I think he likes you very much," Tianhe encouraged, "Go and try."
Tong Kai said doubtfully, "How did you find out?"
Tianhe solemnly began to explain the meaning behind each expression to him, and Tong Kai said, "Then help me make up a reason why he won't reject me."
Tianhe said: "Be honest, be frank, Balzac." As he spoke, Tianhe took Tong Kai's mobile phone, and took the pop-up message "The overbearing president is generous, buy twelve Hermès platinum bags at a time, let anyone choose." "'s news feed to Slip away, and enter in the chat box: [I want to have a serious talk with you.]
"He wants to find time to come to my hotel, what should I do?"
At dinner, Jiang Zijian was sitting at the dining table of Tianhe's house, and the housekeeper Xiao Zhou followed and helped him open the crabs. Almost all the servants in Tianhe's family were dismissed, leaving only Aunt Fang, who naturally couldn't serve them both at the same time.
Tianhe smiled and said, "You asked for it yourself? I just said that I don't want to go to your foot bath city."
Jiang Zijian said, "Now I have to play doorman."
Tianhe stretched his neck, seeing that Jiang Zijian was still thinking about how to reply to Tong Kai's news, Jiang Zijian showed him his phone.
Tianhe: "You didn't call him back?"
Jiang Zijian's chat history still stopped at "I want to have a serious talk with you", so he handed the phone to Tianhe and said, "Why? Can you help me?"
"No, no, no." Tianhe conceded modestly.
Jiang Zijian: "Come on, you have more experience than me."
Tianhe: "How can I have any experience?! You have it."
Jiang Zijian: "Guan Yue broke up with you and is still devoted to you. Twelve platinum bags were sent to Qingsong for you to choose. The news came out today. But why did you fall in love with the girl bag? No, I will ask Country Garden to give you one tomorrow." The box real estate certificate goes to your company... "
Tianhe: "Don't! You misunderstood, Zijian..."
"Quick!" Jiang Zijian said, "Otherwise I won't be with you."
Tianhe had no choice but to wipe his hands, took the phone helplessly, and replied to Tong Kai:
[Except for love, we have nothing to talk about.]
"It's really romantic." Aunt Fang commented, "Xiaotian is a very good talker."
Xiao Zhou smiled and said: "You are still so good-looking, who said that last time? The three brothers of the Wen family..."
Aunt Fang said: "The most beautiful thing in life is to marry the eldest among the three Wen family brothers, find the second to be a good friend for life, and find the third to have a perfect love."
The two housekeepers unanimously approved of Tianhe's romantic talk.
Pro: "Let me take the liberty to ask, why do you want to chat with yourself?"
Tianhe: "..."
That's right, didn't I send this message? The corner of Tianhe's mouth twitched.
Jiang Zijian: "!!!"
Jiang Zijian hurriedly wanted to withdraw, but Tong Kai's news came in a second, and he returned a shy expression.
"Ah—" Jiang Zijian covered his forehead with one hand, and shouted frantically, "Tianhe! You cheated me!"
Tianhe: "Go, go and pursue your love, don't regret it."
Jiang Zijian was silent for a moment: "I don't care, you have to play doorman with me. Don Quixote urgently needs Sancho's assistance now."
Tianhe: "I made an appearance, what are you thinking?"
Jiang Zijian also felt that it didn't make sense. The customer in the foot bath shop suddenly became a colleague. It was so strange. Tianhe had an idea and found a substitute from all living beings: "There is a best candidate."
The light bulb on Jiang Zijian's head dinged.
