When Ji Guanxin came back, I was sitting on the curb to rest. He stepped towards me, holding a bag filled with drinks and water.
He said, "I don't know what you want to drink."
I said, "Now I feel ready to drink Yunnan Baiyao."
You can tell without looking that my face must be sallow now, as if I have kidney deficiency.
Ji Guanxin said, smiled, and then said: "You are still joking after things like this. It seems that you are still far away from death."
I took out a bottle of sour plum juice from the bag, opened it and took a few sips. It was all sour, fighting fire with fire.
Ji Guanxin stood in front of me, condescending. He stretched out his hand to me, "It's not good to sit here. Get in the car."
I didn't hold his hand, but grabbed his wrist and used the force to stand up from the ground.
I patted my butt and said, "Mr. Ji, you see I'm like this, can you let me go?"
Ji Guanxin said: "I have never wanted to torture you. It's because you have delusions of being persecuted. What can I do to you in the clear day?"
Although I was no longer sick, I still felt motion sick. I didn’t have the energy to argue with Ji Guanxin here, so I said directly: “I’m not feeling well, and I can’t go out with you today.”
Ji Guanxin quickly replied: "I came out with you today as a new representative and in the name of work. If you are really uncomfortable, I will call Guan Yue now and ask her to count you as a work-related injury and ask for sick leave."
After that, Ji Guanxin actually took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket. I subconsciously frowned and said, "Hey, wait a minute."
Ji Guanxin looked at me, pretending to be confused.
I cursed a few times in my heart, then I smiled again and said stiffly to Ji Guanxin: "Mr. Ji, I'm fine. I can hold on. What instructions do you have?"
Ji Guanxin seemed very satisfied. He took back his phone and said to me: "In order to go to Luo's to find you, I didn't even eat a bite of food early in the morning. You should come with me to eat first."
After saying that, Ji Guanxin got into the car, as if he was not worried that I would leave.
And I am indeed hopeless. I am so sick from motion sickness that I have to take a deep breath and sit back in.
It is said that it is difficult to do one's job, but now I finally understand the feeling of being involuntarily. When someone says, "I'm going to talk to you about business," I immediately follow behind him, following his lead.
Ji Guanxin pressed the central control and lowered all the windows on my side. While starting the car, he said: "Severe illnesses require heavy medication. The more motion sickness you get, the more you have to ride in a car. When will you sit in a car and walk?" , so I don’t feel dizzy.”
I thought to myself, standing and talking doesn’t hurt my back.
Before I could respond, Ji Guanxin stepped on the accelerator. I just felt my body leaning back due to inertia, and then the scenery on the right quickly moved back.
Ji Guanxin actually started racing like crazy on the main road of Night City at around eight o'clock in the morning.
I grabbed the handle next to me and glanced at the dial. He drove to 1,780 horses. I felt the vehicles on both sides whizzing past me. I was so scared that I didn't dare to breathe. I kept opening my eyes and looking ahead.
Seeing that the yellow light ahead was about to turn red, Ji Guanxin's car was still dozens of meters away from the intersection, but instead of slowing down, he accelerated and rushed over.
I was so scared that I couldn't even speak. This journey was thrilling, comparable to the speed and passion. I don’t know how long it took, but Ji Guanxin’s car slowly stopped on the side of the road.
He turned off the engine, unbuckled his seat belt, and when he saw that I was motionless, he turned to me and said, "We're here."
I glanced out of the corner of my eye and saw a Cantonese-style tea restaurant on the right side of the road.
Ji Guanxin saw that I was very frightened, so he smiled and said, "Did you get carsick just now?"
Faint
I recalled it, my heart almost stopped beating, and I even fainted.
I glared at Ji Guanxin and said with a white face: "You want to commit suicide, don't bring me along!"
Ji Guanxin replied shamelessly: "Kill me and heal you."
After saying that, without waiting for me to reply, he turned around and opened the door and got out of the car.
I couldn't bear to be angry with him. After a while, after I recovered my senses, I opened the car door and got out.
We walked into the store one after another. The clerk greeted me politely. Ji Guanxin was familiar with the place. He took me to a seat by the window and said, "The Cantonese tea here is very authentic. You can eat whatever you like." point."
I wanted to say that I was so full, what else could I eat, but the glutinous aroma filled my nose, which made my index fingers twitch. My words of rejection were already on my lips, but my words turned out to be: "A basket of green white rabbit dumplings" ”
The clerk took note, and I scanned the order book with sixty or seventy kinds of snacks. I was dazzled. After a while, I said: "I also want a cage of puff pastry lotus seed buns."
After that, I handed the order book to Ji Guanxin and took a sip of tea.
Ji Guanxin raised his eyes and said, "Why don't you order it?"
"These two are enough for me, you can order the rest yourself."
Ji Guanxin took the order book and said: "Dry steamed crab roe shaomai, preserved egg puff pastry, pink fruit, glutinous rice chicken, honeycomb fragrant taro wedges... raw bone belly porridge."
"By the way, don't you drink porridge?" Ji Guanxin asked me midway.
I said, "Are you going to invite people over to eat later? If you order so much, two people can't finish it."
Ji Guanxin said casually: "Order some of everything and choose what you like."
After finishing speaking, he said to the clerk: "Add another bowl of Fuguo tripe porridge."
The clerk took the order book and turned away, leaving me and Ji Guanxin sitting face to face. I suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so I used the action of drinking tea to divert my attention.
The best thing about Cantonese style tea restaurants is that the dim sum is ready-made and served as soon as you order it.
Not long after, the clerk came over with a dining cart and placed a dozen small steamers on our table, followed by two bowls of porridge.
Ji Guanxin pointed to the pink fruit in the basket and said to me, "Try it, it's quite delicious."
I hummed, then picked up a piece of pink fruit and ate it. It tasted really good.
In the past, I couldn't eat or drink after getting car sick, but it was strange today. Maybe I was frightened by Ji Guanxin's method of fighting poison with poison. I was still dizzy in the first half of the journey, but I was completely fine in the second half. Now I feel good eating.
During the dinner, Ji Guanxin said to me: "Where do you want to play soon?"
There was a whole rabbit dumpling in my mouth. Out of politeness, I swallowed it whole, and then I replied: "Didn't you say you came to work?"
Ji Guanxin said: "I will take you to the development zone in a moment. Once you get there, you will not come out to inspect the work."
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes, he really knew how to entertain and teach.
After dinner, Ji Guanxin drove me to the new development area of Yecheng. It is said to be a new area, but it has actually been built for two or three years. This huge area used to be all land, but it was later bought by the Luo family, and then they joined forces with Xinrui to build it into a city within a city in Night City.
Nowadays, the new district is full of high-rise buildings and countless shopping malls. Because of the five-year half-price rent policy introduced by Luo's and Xinrui, it has attracted more than a hundred major brands at home and abroad to join. Although the location is far away from the city center, other living and entertainment facilities are available and completely self-sufficient.
This is the Dongcheng Development Zone, and Xu Lu works in the Xicheng Development Zone. Although they are all development zones, they are one above the ground and one above the ground. Xu Lu often complained to me that there was not even a large shopping mall there, and there was no place to spend the money earned.
I have been coming to Night City for more than four years, almost five years, but this was my first time here in the new district. After getting off the bus, I looked around and compared it with the city center.
Ji Guanxin stood next to me. Seeing that I had been sizing him up, he asked aloud: "First time here?"
I responded.
Ji Guanxin added: "That's just right. You can hang out with me today, and I'll make sure you visit all the fun things around here."
Then in the next ten hours, Ji Guanxin took me to play video games; I went to the largest indoor sports hall to play football, and I went to the real-life 4D hall to experience a simulation of jumping from a building 300 meters high. No, it was like bungee jumping. , I was so frightened that I almost shouted for dinner.
During this period, I was really tired and couldn't bear it. Ji Guanxin finally showed mercy and took me to the cinema, saying that he wanted me to watch a movie and relax for a while. However, it was only after I sat in the movie theater that I realized that what he was taking me to watch was 3dimax. version of "The Grudge 3", the consequences can be imagined, I got through it with my eyes closed the whole time.
If I hadn't repeatedly said that if Ji Guanxin didn't send me back to the city, I would never hang out with him again, and he might have tortured me in another way.
By the time he drove me back, it was already past nine-thirty at night.
I kept an eye on him and asked him to drop me off at the gate of another community near the apartment. When I saw him driving away, I walked a few hundred meters back to the apartment.
Thanks to Ji Guanxin, I had an extremely fulfilling day. After taking a shower, I collapsed on my bed and immediately knew nothing about anything.
I had a dream that night. I dreamed of a female ghost wearing white clothes, black hair and face hanging down, chasing me with her teeth and claws, and I was set to have to score three footballs in a row in order to get rid of her.
After running, I came to the edge of the cliff. Seeing the female ghost chasing after me, I gritted my teeth and jumped, thinking that if there was an afterlife, I would definitely kill Ji Guanxin alive.
I opened my eyes suddenly and stared at the familiar scenery in front of me. After a while, I realized that it was all a dream.
Although I am a highly educated person, my fear of ghosts is a little secret in my heart.
I took my phone and looked at it. It was seven o'clock sharp. I could have slept a little longer, but when I thought of the female ghost in my dream, I couldn't sleep anymore.
I stretched out my hand to lift the quilt and prepared to get out of bed. When I raised my legs, I realized that my legs were sore and as heavy as lead. It must be because Ji Guanxin forced me to play football with him yesterday.
I haven't played football in many years. Yesterday I was on the field for an hour. It's strange that it doesn't hurt to death.
I went to the bathroom to tidy up, and when I came back I put on makeup again. Although it was still early, I still got up and went to Luo's.
