Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 2053 Mask
"The skirt is very beautiful, do you usually go to work like this?" Duan Yun asked with a smile.

"How is it possible?" Ruixue pouted her lips, and continued, "I don't dare to dress up when I go to work, but when I get to work, I have to wear the uniform of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We have strict rules on appearance and clothing here. Especially for a spokesperson like us, even the angle of wearing the badge on the chest has very detailed regulations, and absolutely no mistakes can be made...Nowadays, there are a lot of work every day, and the pressure is also great. Although I have adapted a lot compared to the beginning, I still feel like I am locked in a cage every day, dull, boring, and very tired..."

"I don't do any work now. Besides, I don't know how many people envy your current job. You are the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs elected by more than one billion people. You represent the country now, and you are much more famous than those stars. It is." Duan Yun said.

"When I was a student, I liked to be in the limelight. I was always looking for opportunities to prove that I was better than others. I had to be the first in the school in the exam. I also participated in various Mathematical Olympiad competitions, composition competitions, and calligraphy competitions. I had to work hard to get the best ranking. ..." When she said this, Rui Xue had a bit of self-mockery on her face, only to hear her continue: "Everything is caused by my competitiveness and vanity, and I don't allow myself to fail, otherwise, I will feel I am very frustrated, and I have put in a lot of hard work for this. I still remember that when I was in high school, I failed to get No.1 in a calligraphy competition. I was ranked behind another participating student in Haidian Middle School. The family cried, thinking that this competition was unfair, obviously I wrote better than him, it's still quite funny to think about it now..."

"Hahaha!" Hearing this, Duan Yun laughed.

In fact, Duan Yun can fully understand Ruixue's mood at that time. Ruixue has indeed inherited his father's self-improvement and aggressive character, and compared to his father, it is even better than his father. It is a good thing to have a certain competitiveness. , can motivate people to struggle, but if they are too competitive, they will bring too much pressure to themselves. Ruixue is such a girl.

In the eyes of outsiders, Ruixue is undoubtedly the object of envy and admiration for many people, but only she knows that Ruixue has not been happy these years. Little vanity makes her live with a mask all the time. In fact, Ruixue is indeed a very strong girl in all aspects, but in fact, she has endured and sacrificed too much in order to maintain her strength and self-esteem.

Living in such a family, whether it is his father or mother, has very high demands on her and her elder brother, so from childhood, Ruixue seldom had the opportunity to go out and play with her peers, most of the time she was either studying or She is a very nerdy little girl who is practicing calligraphy. It is precisely because of this that after graduating from university, she chose to enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and worked in France for two years. In fact, she wanted to stay away from this seemingly dull family and live in a foreign country. Enjoy a free life.

However, in fact, after going to France, many things were different from Ruixue’s original expectations. In fact, it was not the environment that really felt stressful and dull. Moreover, she had such a strong personality. Because of this, Ruixue, who was an assistant to the ambassador in France, I still maintain a strong self-discipline ability. Except for work and some necessary entertainment with the ambassador, I spend most of my time studying, which is not much different from my domestic life.

With amazing talent and years of self-discipline, Ruixue ushered in a career peak soon after her return. Her strong family background finally made her the youngest press speaker in the history of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and his work performance in the past six months has also been outstanding, becoming the most shining new star in the entire Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The future is almost limitless.

However, these honors and halos did not actually make Ruixue feel happy. On the contrary, her current life has fallen into an endless loop. Because of the special nature of her work, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has a very low fault tolerance rate when interviewing the media. Because every word you say represents the official voice of the country. On the one hand, you must avoid foreign journalists digging holes, and you must also maintain the image and dignity of the country. You must not say wrong things. This requires him to maintain a high reading volume every day. A photographic memory is the most basic requirement. Speech skills and witty remarks are also what the public expects of her, so this job is far from The average person is capable of doing it. Looking at the entire Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there will never be more than five people with this level, and Ruixue is the best among them.

But these are not the life Ruixue wants, and although she seems to have a good relationship in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is in a state of being surrounded by stars, she knows in her heart that many people are actually just in awe of her His family background and background, and many people are even more jealous of him. The older generation of leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs really care about him, but colleagues who are similar to his age are more often just farther away. As a result, Ruixue doesn't have any true friends in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, nor does she have the kind of confidant who can open her heart.

Therefore, only when she is with Duan Yun, Ruixue is willing to show her true side. The relationship over the years has made Ruixue feel that Duan Yun is a very sincere person, and both of them are top successful people in their respective fields. Whether it's the way of thinking, the style of doing things, or the three views, they all fit together quite well, and they understand each other better, so in front of Duan Yun, Ruixue seemed very relaxed, and she was willing to say something to him that she couldn't usually say to others.

In Duan Yun's eyes, Ruixue and the little girl he met for the first time ten years ago seem to have not changed much, but with some more dazzling titles and halos. The existence that people look up to, but to Duan Yun, she hasn't changed much over the years.

"Sometimes I really want to take a long vacation for myself, so that I can play carefree for a period of time, but I dare not do it, because now I have achieved everything today with great difficulty." Walking in the sprinkle On the street full of moonlight, Ruixue glanced at the street lights ahead, and said to Duan Yun: "But I'm really tired now, it seems that I have been running for so many years, and I have never heard of it..."
