under the spotlight

Chapter 296 Wind and Rain
The weather in Zhongjiang is like this. In November, the mood of God is generally not very good.

In the rainy days for a month, sometimes a few drops were sprinkled, and sometimes the rain was pouring, and the wind was blowing, and the leaves of the trees were blown by the wind and rain for several days, turning yellow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and some even turned yellow. If it is not yellow, it will be swept all over the sky by the strong wind, and then crushed into dust and turned into mud, leaving no fragrance as before, but it makes the world become desolate.

Most people have not adapted to the transition from autumn to winter, and many people are still wearing a thin coat and walking on the street shivering. Zhuang Jie is like this, wearing a thin windbreaker, and her long black curly hair is very messy by the wind. , standing under the eaves of the entrance of a quiet bar in Linhu Bar Street, ignoring the young people coming and going around him, after thinking for a long time, he stomped his feet, opened the door and went in.

In this kind of weather, drink a glass of wine in a warm room, find your favorite place for those who love to be noisy and quiet, and unknown foreign songs are played in the bar, mixed with the smell of tobacco and alcohol, although it is not as deafening as a disco , is still not Zhuang Jie's favorite environment.

Passing through the crowd gathered in twos and threes at the bar, Zhuang Jie stood still in front of a table for two. On that table, one glass was empty, and the other glass was held in the hand of a man leaning against the wall. It was obvious that two people drank and left One, Zhuang Jie just paused and sat down without asking the person opposite.

The man raised his head from the haze of alcohol, blinked his slightly drunk eyes, and muttered softly, "You're not drunk, why are you here?"

"Looking at Chen Ke's circle of friends, I know that he left you and left. I happened to be nearby. It was cold outside. I wanted to drink something to keep warm, so I came..." Zhuang Jie said in a few words, how did she know that Wei Ye was alone? The matter of drinking here has been explained. Of course, this explanation also contains some other meanings. It depends on whether Wei Ye can understand it.

The pictures from the past came to mind, Zhuang Jie looked at the drunk Wei Ye with distaste, that expression, now that he was a little drunk, was very clear, and he laughed directly: "Don't be kidding Well, you used to scold me because I like to have a sip of a drink..."

"Uh, Chen Ke is using me as a shield again. Let's see what he said..." Wei Ye suddenly felt bored, so he changed the subject and picked up the phone on the table to change the subject.

Zhuang Jie was silent for a while, then raised her hand to signal the waiter to come over with a cup, then took out a pack of women's cigarettes and a lighter from her bag, and naturally took out one and lit it.

Wei Ye was obviously attracted by Zhuang Jie's actions again, seeing her puffing expression, he laughed in surprise: "When did you learn to smoke, but you still look pretty."

Zhuang Jie forced a stiff smile on his face, but his heart kept sinking, did he really not care?She clearly remembered that he didn't like girls smoking in the past, but she could only force herself to be calm: "Isn't that good? Now, we're even, you drink and I smoke, and no one needs to dislike the other."

Zhuang Jie stared straight at Wei Ye, Wei Ye just went to drink, until the waiter brought the glass over, she didn't wait for him to move, she poured the wine by herself, raised the glass again, took a sip, and waited for a while. A smile overflowed: "I can drink a little now, and I found that wine is actually a good thing, especially when I'm a little drunk, I cry when I want to, laugh when I want to laugh, and I think it's not that difficult... ..."

"Is the family asking you for money again?" Wei Ye didn't stop her, but asked following her words.

Zhuang Jie shook her head and smiled a little sadly: "No, they probably know how much income I can earn. They just checked it out. Now is not the time. I guess it will be around the time of Chinese New Year. Last time, thank you!"

Wei Ye didn't want to mention the 3 yuan. When he gave it, he thought about it, and regarded it as a break with the old relationship. In any case, at the best time, they used to get tired of being together. They haven't seen each other for several days. Separated.

"Your family doesn't know that you have changed jobs?"

"I don't know, they don't care, anyway, in their eyes, I'm just a cash cow that doesn't make any money."

"Don't say that, no matter what, you are doing a good job now! Sister Wei and Xiao Ran are praising you."

This seemed to be the most fulfilling thing for Zhuang Jie. She smiled and added some wine to both Wei Ye and herself: "I also want to thank you for this matter. Without you, Xiao Ran would not Definitely use me."

Wei Ye chuckled: "It's really unnecessary, maybe, I'm doing you a disservice in this matter."

Zhuang Jie was very transparent, and immediately understood what Wei Ye meant: "That's right, Xiao Ran is not to you. I mean, Xiao Ran is a very affectionate person. In the past, I, hey, forget it." , In fact, when Xiao Ran first came, why didn't you chase her?"

Wei Ye's small eyes widened: "Don't talk nonsense, how could Xiao Ran and I be possible? We are brothers, brothers who have no iron, and besides, they are married, and the two of them loved each other very much when they were young. Don't talk nonsense, you are all staying in the same company, you want to be like this..."

"Okay, okay, can't I stop talking? I won't say anything in the future. I'm just joking. I don't dare to joke around with others. Don't you know that you have a strong relationship? Xiao Ran looked at me a while ago. The eyes are cold, I used to think that she was a heartless little girl with a personality, but now I suddenly realized that there was indeed something wrong with my eyes."

Wei Ye laughed, as if he felt the same way. Wen Mengran is a decisive female devil in the company now, and no one dares to provoke her easily. Only the always peaceful Lu Beicen can put out the fire.

"Learn more from Sister Wei. We can't learn from Xiao Ran and Xiao Bei, and they have no reference value." Wei Ye suggested as if chatting with an old friend.

"Well, I know, I didn't think it before, but now I follow Sister Wei, and I realize that she is really not simple, but they are not simple, and you are the same. It is amazing to be able to keep up with them!" Zhuang Jie raised her glass. .

Wei Ye clinked glasses with her, drank it all, and said: "Actually, dealing with them is very simple, just concentrate on doing what you are supposed to do, don't play tricks, they are very powerful, but they are also very kind. But this kind of kindness is kindness with a bottom line, and it is definitely not a kind person."

Zhuang Jie pouted: "I know, you don't need to hit me in a different way, I already thought it through when I came here, if I miss it once, it will never happen again, it's just like me, I can't afford to be wrong again..."

Wei Ye smiled: "You are fine, there are some things that are not absolutely right or wrong, you have to try to know if it is the right choice, right!"

Startled, Zhuang Jie asked softly, "Aren't we going back again?"

The smile on Wei Ye's face remained unchanged, and he looked at Zhuang Jie with decisive and resolute eyes: "In the past, I also disappointed you a lot, I thought about it, in fact, it is not suitable for us to live together. Colleague, it's also very good, what do you think?"

Zhuang Jie pursed her lips, poured some more wine, and drank it dry: "Then, I'll go first, see you tomorrow!"

The wind was still blowing, Wei Ye watched as Zhuang Jie pushed open the door and disappeared, poured the last wine in the bottle into a cup, drank it all in one gulp, put the large down jacket over the short sleeves, and went out, the wind was still strong , very big, the leaves are swirling in the wind, and under the light of the street lamps, there is a different kind of fun...
