Love for a limited time

Chapter 172 No Strength To Love Anymore
Li Zhibin saw us coming, and joked with a smile: "I see you're nervous, this time, it's possible that sister Yueyan can run away!"

Lu Wenxuan's expression was slightly startled and he changed the topic: "Where does Xia Xia work now?"

Before I could open my mouth, Li Zhibin had already answered: "Xia Xia is far away now, she has taken the accounting exam by herself, and plans to apply for the CPA exam?"

"Oh, the accountant is good!" Lu Wenxuan's conversation was still elegant, and after years of polishing, it carried the luxurious air of a successful businessman.

"Did Xia Xia study accounting? When I go to work, you can come to work in my firm. I'm short of manpower. The salary is definitely higher than Yuanyang's. How about it?"

"Sister Yueyan still has vision, and our Xia Xia is a rare talent?"

"You don't need to say, how about it, think about it carefully, I haven't gone out to work for a while, and my stay at home is almost moldy!" Sister Yueyan's eyes began to shine when she mentioned work, which seemed to be a bad idea. A workaholic.

"You'd better rest at home for a while, having a baby will take a toll on your vitality, how can it be so easy to make up for it!" Lu Wenxuan was very worried.

"Don't interrupt, eat vegetables, don't you see that I'm recruiting talents?" Yueyan was unhappy for a while.

"Then I'll think about it!" Actually, I don't really want to go. If I go, I will inevitably meet some old acquaintances.

"Anyway, I'm still early for work, so I'm not in a hurry, you take your time to think about it!" Yueyan patted my hand enthusiastically.

I nodded, we said goodbye at the entrance of the hotel, and Li Zhibin sent me back.

On the way, I looked out the window and asked in a daze: "Are you surprised that sister Yueyan married brother Lu's family?"

"That summer, on a graduation trip, Brother Yu Zhe and a few classmates went to Jiuzhaigou, just in time for a mudslide and landslide..."

He didn't go on, but I also guessed that there was absolutely no possibility of survival.

My work in Yuanyang is very smooth, and the supervisor takes good care of me because I am a senior.

He is a few years older than me. With his own efforts, he bought a house and a car in this city, and he has settled down in this city. He is one of the four golden bachelors in our company.

Like me, he was born in a small place. In today's words, he is a typical Phoenix man.

Because I have just arrived and I don’t have any housework to take care of, so when it’s almost time to get off work, my colleagues throw all the unfinished things to me.

I'm fine anyway, besides, it's not bad for me to learn more when I just came to the company.

Chen Zhiwen occasionally works overtime and sees that I always work overtime there alone, and he will come over to ask a few questions. After a long time, I am familiar with it.

Sometimes I would ask for supper to eat together, and I would ask him for advice when I encountered something that I understood at work, but I also learned a lot from him.

I am grateful to him. It is not easy to meet someone in the company who is willing to help me sincerely. Usually, I am busy with my own affairs, for fear that I will make mistakes!
In a blink of an eye, I have been in the company for three months. Today I have officially passed the probationary period, and I have formally gone through the procedures for the three insurances and one housing fund in the HR department. I am already a full-time employee of Yuanyang.

Of the five interns who came in with me, only two remained. Yuanyang is a big company and has high requirements for employees.

That day, Chen Zhiwen said to help me celebrate and invited me to dinner: "Manager, you are too polite. The reason why I can stay in the company is because of your help! I should invite you!"

"You're welcome, you were introduced by the teacher, so I will naturally take care of you!"

"So, let me invite you for this meal. I just got paid, or I will feel bad!" I called my mother and told her not to prepare my meal, and I ate with my colleagues.

It was near the company, we ate western food, and we talked about work all the time. Later he asked about my family situation, and I simply said that my father passed away and my mother supported me to study.

"If you have any difficulties at home in the future, just tell me, and I will help if I can!"

"Thank you manager!"

After eating, I planned to take a taxi back by myself, but he insisted on seeing me off, so I had no choice but to agree.

My mother probably saw that I hadn't returned so late and heard the sound of a car upstairs, so she came down from upstairs.

"Xiaxia!" I heard my mother calling me, and turned around to introduce: "Manager Chen, this is my mother, and this is our Manager Chen!"

"Trouble Manager Chen, thank you for sending us Xia Xia back!"

"Auntie, you are welcome, Xia Xia is willing to work hard, and my colleagues in the company like it very much!"

"I often hear us Xia Xia mentioning you. Thanks to your care, our Xia Xia can work stably!"

After speaking a few words with my mother, I drove away.

My mother stood there for a while before saying: "Xia Xia, you are not young anymore!"

"Mom, what did you say?"

"You know what Mom said, so go up when you're done!" Mom went upstairs with heavy steps, appearing preoccupied.

This topic is very sensitive, and I can't persuade her. After delivering the medicine to Mom, I went back to my room.

But I couldn't fall asleep anyway, opened the window, and the autumn wind blew in, bringing a chill, I couldn't help shivering.

In the dark blue night sky, there are few stars and moons, and it is a bit cold, which makes people feel chills.

But I want to blow such a cold wind, only in this way can I feel sober.

In fact, I can naturally hear the meaning of my mother's words. I also know that my mother has a good impression of this Chen Zhiwen. She thinks that we are all from a small place, at least we have a common language, and there will be no big conflicts even if we get married in the future.

In my mother's eyes, Chen Zhiwen is the most suitable for me.

But, I really don't have the strength to love anymore.

I took the box out of the box, opened it, and the silver ring was lying there quietly, because I had never worn it, so it was still very bright.

Under the illumination of the light, there was a faint light, which hurt my eyes, and I couldn't bear to look at it any more.

I stretched out my hand and whirled on the empty bracelet box, and couldn't help a tear dripping on it. I was afraid that it would get dirty, so I quickly wiped it with my hand.

In the end, I put it away carefully, and all I have left is this empty box and this ring. This is the only memory between me and him.

Junxi, are you okay?
Do you have a girlfriend or are you married?
I'm not ready to love, I don't want to force others, let alone myself.

The company plans to organize employees to travel on National Day.

I didn't plan to go at first, but my mother insisted that I go after she found out.

It is said that they are all the same age, and it is good to go out together, but what good is being with her, an old woman, every day.

I think my mother insisted, and most people in the company will go, so it is rare that all departments are together, and the young women in the finance department who are waiting to be married are all excited.

If I don't go, it will appear that I am out of place!
