Come To My Office After Get Off Work

Today is Ji Lianxing's third day in Yu Meng's house.

Ten p.m.

"What do you plan to do in the future?" Yu Meng sat in front of the vanity mirror and applied eye cream. The mirror reflected her appearance, with a bed behind her.

Ji Lianxing was lying on the bed, tightly wrapped in the quilt in a daze.

"I received a new offer this afternoon from Zhang Mingyue's wife."

Yu Meng turned around with admiration in her eyes, "Does she really appreciate you, think about it?"

Ji Lianxing was silent.

She and Luo Rong talked on the phone in the afternoon. Luo Rong said that if he wanted to, he could go to work in her company. The occupation was not much different from the previous one, but the salary was higher and there was more room for promotion.

This should be something to be happy about, but Ji Lianxing has no interest in it. I don't know if it is the sequelae of lovelorn. In the past few days, I have been at Yu Meng's house. I haven't gone anywhere.

On top of that, inexplicably, she felt lost.

"Yu Meng."

"Um?"

"I don't want to be in this city anymore."

Yu Meng's hands were stagnant, and she looked at Ji Lianxing from the mirror. She was in a daze, and her expression and tone didn't look like she was joking.

"Then where do you want to go?"

"Anywhere except this city." Ji Lianxing turned over, his eyes were a little empty, and muttered: "If I don't leave here, I will feel bound, and I don't want to stay in the same place with her. ."

"Have you thought about it?" Yu Meng turned to look at Ji Lianxing. From the perspective of career development, staying in City A is the best choice. There are many opportunities here, strong competitiveness, and young people's ability to work. There is a big improvement.

"I figured it out." She got out of the quilt, revealing her slender shoulders. She was already thin, and she felt even thinner after not eating for a few days. "I'll go to work in other cities, make money, and take her The money is paid back, and you will give it to her for me when the time comes."

Yu Meng felt distressed when she heard it, and she still wanted to pay off her debts after breaking up.

"Hurry up and get under the bed. I can't see your small body. If you don't eat tomorrow, I'm really going to be angry."

Ji Lianxing nodded, "Got it."

Yu Meng sighed, "Would you be used to going to another city?" She thought to herself that this would be too lonely. A person who had no sense of belonging at first had just gotten acquainted with a city. Go to another unfamiliar city, and choose to drift alone.

Ji Lianxing got into the quilt again, only showing a head, "There's nothing to be used to or not used to, it's just life, anyway, after so many years, it's time to get tired of it, try somewhere else and see if you can get something new. Develop."

She gave herself a deadline. After three days, she had to cheer up no matter how sad she was, leave the city and find a new job. No matter how unsatisfactory life was, she had to support herself.

"Ji Lianxing." Yu Meng just looked at her like that, and stopped at the mouth of a thousand words, but in the end she didn't say it, "Okay, I will support you whatever you want."

In the dead of night, the two of them were lying on the same bed, Yu Meng, an office worker, who was usually too tired to go to work, and basically fell asleep when it touched the pillow.

Ji Lianxing lay beside her, another sleepless night. Staring at the pitch-black ceiling in a daze, the world is peaceful.

Inevitably, Jiang Shu got into Ji Lianxing's head again. As long as he thinks of her these days, his heart will panic. Ji Lianxing feels that he is cursed. Jiang Shu's shadow.

That feeling is not the same as missing. Rather than remembering it over and over again, it is better to choose to forget it over and over again.

But can you really forget? Jiang Shu's appearance, her touch, her voice, and those lingering nights belong to the secrets between them...

Ji Lianxing turned around, tears could not stop falling from his eyes, and finally fell asleep in sadness and exhaustion...

Early in the morning, Yu Meng got up early for work.

Ji Lianxing was lying on the bed, she had already resigned and did not need to go to work. These days are rare moments when she can sleep until she wakes up naturally, but she doesn't sleep very well. Sometimes she wakes up before Yu Meng wakes up. In order not to disturb Yu Meng's sleep, Ji Lianxing usually lies in bed. daze.

"What do you have for breakfast?" Yu Meng asked Ji Lianxing when she was getting dressed.

"I'll do it myself, don't worry."

"Don't eat it again." Yu Meng made a gesture of slitting her throat to her.

"I know, I'll get up and go out for food." Ji Lianxing got up from the bed and put on a coat casually. Today was the first day she went out in the past few days, and it was foggy outside.

Winter mornings are the coldest. Yu Meng's house is rented far away from the city center, and the surrounding area is almost full of old neighborhoods. Although the old community is not as prosperous as the city center, it has an advantage that there are many things to eat, and most of them taste very authentic.

Ji Lianxing had no appetite, but her stomach was still full. She walked into a noodle shop and ordered a small bowl of beef noodles. The business of the shop was very good. The table was almost full early in the morning, and the boss was standing beside a large pot. , the noodles are all cooked in it, and the proprietress is busy making ingredients with a row of bowls on the side.

Ji Lianxing sat on the table against the wall, took out his mobile phone, clicked on Luo Rong's WeChat, thought for a while, and finally sent the message: Mr. Luo, thank you for your kindness, I thought about it for a long time, and decided to go elsewhere. city ​​Development.

After the news was sent, Ji Lianxing let out a long sigh, as if the last burden had been lifted, and she could leave the city completely unburdened. But the next second, the shadow of a certain person appeared in his head, and suddenly there was a little sadness.

Ji Lianxing shook his head, don't think about her anymore, just go and leave.

After breakfast, when I came out of the noodle shop, the sky was drizzling, and the sky was cloudy over the city. An unfamiliar call came in, and the caller ID belonged to Lore County.

Ji Lianxing clicked to answer.

"Hey!" An aunt on the other end of the phone was yelling at Mai and said in her native dialect, "Are you Ji Xiaopang?"

Ji Lianxing was stunned, the voice was really familiar, like the one in the village...Aunt Fang?

"I am." Ji Lianxing switched to his hometown accent, "Are you Aunt Fang?"

"Oops! Oops! You still remember me! I'll come back soon, there's good news!"

Ji Lianxing was quite stunned here. She didn't know what good news Aunt Fang, who had never contacted, could bring her.

Seeing Ji Lianxing's silence, Aunt Fang roared again: "Come back quickly, the house at the top of your house is going to be demolished!"

Is Lore County going to be demolished? Ji Lianxing's first reaction was that she didn't have a house. Her family's house was sold when her mother was sick, but the uncle's house was still there.

"Come back soon, all the houses at the top of your uncle's house are yours, you really made a lot of money!" Aunt Fang hurriedly hung up the phone, leaving Ji Lianxing standing there in a daze , the news came too suddenly and was completely unhandled.

Does this mean that there must be a way for the car to the front of the mountain?

Ji Lianxing breathed a sigh of relief, the blood all over her body began to flow faster, she didn't know how the demolition work, so she really had to go back to Luoer County, she rushed back to Yu Meng's house and took the I bought a ticket for the fastest high-speed rail on my ID card, and the journey time is two hours.

Strangely, when sitting on the high-speed train, Ji Lianxing looked at the fast-reversing scenery outside the window, and his heart was filled with emotion. She remembered that the last time she left, she had made up her mind never to return to this place, but she came back now.

After walking out of the high-speed rail station, in just one and a half months, Luoer County has undergone major changes. The previous small noodle restaurant and vegetable market have been torn down, the construction team has begun to lay foundations in the ruins, and several surrounding roads have begun to be renovated. A small county town is like an old man who is returning to his youth.

Walking on the road, Ji Lianxing found that he met more young and middle-aged people than last time, and everyone seemed to be running back to run errands.

Ji Lianxing took a taxi to Feiqian Village, still riding on the old tricycle, but this time it was electric instead of pedals. Ji Lianxing thought, this time, don't you have to worry that the tricycle master is too hard to go uphill?

The tricycle was parked at the entrance of Feiqian Village. Ji Lianxing just got off the car when he lifted his head and saw a banner at the entrance of the village: Demolition and renovation of beautiful homes, reasonable compensation, demolition and relocation to create harmony, and optimize environmental development.

The aunt and uncle at the entrance of the village were happily saying something. The moment Ji Lianxing got off the car, Aunt Fang saw her sharply, and her sharp voice broke out from the crowd: "Ji Xiaopang is back! Hurry up, do it. Come here quickly, cub!"

There were a lot of uncles and aunts, Ji Lianxing was a little embarrassed, but he still walked over, everyone was discussing about money and land, and Ji Lianxing felt dizzy when he heard it. So come.

A trembling old man came to the village with a happy face: "Let's go, let us go to the demolition office."

The crowd was crowded, and they headed towards the demolition office. Ji Lianxing glanced at the village, but did not find Wang Xiaoli. I wonder if she was heartbroken because of Ji Siyu, except for the phone call that night. About her Ji Siyu, the two have basically cut off contact.

On the way to the demolition office, Aunt Fang dragged Ji Lianxing to the East and the West. Aunt Fang loved gossip, and her mouth was like a machine gun. Ji Lianxing was half listening and half perfunctory, thinking about what Wang Xiaoli did. Well, why don't she come, can she not come for this kind of thing that has something to do with money?

"Little Fatty, there's something, Aunt Fang still decided to tell you." Aunt Fang took Ji Lianxing's arm, her expression suddenly became serious, and said in a low voice, "I always thought ha, Wang Xiaoli really did that thing. It's not right!"

"What's the matter?"

"When your uncle was like that in the house, she didn't even send people to the hospital. How could she be rude?"

Ji Lianxing stopped at his feet, staring at Aunt Fang with horror.

"What did you say? Wasn't my uncle in the hospital before?"

"Ah, it was in the hospital at the beginning, but it was sent back directly later. Your uncle passed away after a month at home."

a month? In an instant, something slammed into Ji Lianxing's heart, and the information she knew was too different. She remembered that Jiang Shu had transferred 250,000 yuan a month before the uncle's death. At that time, in order to prevent Ji Siyu from using that The money was also specially stamped into the uncle's card, which was kept by Wang Xiaoli.

At that time, Wang Xiaoli kept saying that the money would definitely be used for her uncle, and the video of her daily stay in the hospital was also sent to Ji Lianxing's mobile phone, so what happened after staying at home for a month?

"Ji Zai, I really can't stand your aunt. You see that everyone in this village knows it, but it's good for them not to talk about it and not intervene in other people's housework. But I think about it, I'm also watching you grow up. Big, girl, you can't take any more losses, you know?" Aunt Fang patted Ji Lianxing on the shoulder meaningfully, her eyes already explained everything.

Ji Lianxing was in a panic, remembering what his uncle said before his death, "Don't be soft-hearted" is so fitting at the moment, so is what he left behind real estate? Does "don't be soft-hearted" mean don't give it to Wang Xiaoli?

No wonder Aunt Fang made the phone call about the demolition. Wang Xiaoli knew about it but didn't tell it. It seemed that she was unwilling and had a ghost in her heart.

After walking for a while, a group of people came to the door of the demolition office. The door was full of people, and the water was blocked. Everyone was too excited. You and I seemed to have endless words, and the staff were a little helpless.

"Don't worry, everyone can rest assured that we will pay the compensation in place. As long as you sign, our payment will arrive in the account on time, and the specific announcement will be on the side. Let's check it out first, and come back to us if you have any questions." It doesn't work, everyone is still you and me, asking him to explain it orally without looking at the documents.

Ji Lianxing turned around and went to the sign at the door. It said how much area each person in the village should pay for, and how much money should be paid for each square meter. Ji Lianxing found his name on a list of names.

The information on the list is: Ji Lianxing, the original land area (including the yard) is 200 square meters, and the unit price per square meter is 10,000.

Ji Lianxing stood on the spot and spent two seconds calculating the amount. She would receive two million in compensation plus two suites. According to the local house price, she should have a total of four million yuan.

Beside her was the noise of the villagers. Ji Lianxing stood there, in a different mood, and suddenly wanted to cry. This was the money her uncle left her. When the uncle died, he said that he hoped she would be healthy and happy. The uncle also said, don't be soft-hearted. .

She thought what the uncle meant was, let her take the money to live her own life again.

"Hey, do you understand? Who signed it? Who signed it?" Uncle Zhang shouted in the crowd.

Although the payment has been made clear, everyone still dare not act rashly, after all, this is something that can easily cost millions. The villagers look at me, I look at you, and everyone looks at each other, as if waiting for someone who can take the lead in making decisions.

"I sign." A clear female voice came from the crowd, Ji Lianxing came out and sat down in front of the staff, "Hello, I want to see the contract."

The staff is very cooperative, young people, it is easier to communicate.

"This is our contract. The house will be demolished after you sign it, and the demolition payment will be received within 45 working days. We handle it very quickly here, usually within 15 days. As for the house, we have to wait for the resettlement house to be built. I'll give it to you after it's done." The staff handed the contract to Ji Lianxing and added: "Our country's current subsidy policy is in place, take a look."

Ji Lianxing browsed through the contract, holding a pen in his hand, but hesitated for a while.

She looked at the contract, and if she signed her name at this moment, she would get a huge sum of money.

At that moment, I was suddenly in a trance. I suddenly remembered the scene when the uncle died that day. He took her hand and told her not to cry. He told her that he had prepared a gift for her. When the uncle died, he should have been There was nothing to say, but Ji Lianxing understood.

He should have wanted to say, live a good life.

No matter how hard life was in the past, no matter how fate grabbed her by the throat, those injustices, cruel and heart-wrenching, will be yesterday, the night will be long, but the day will always come.

It seemed that the surrounding voices had dissipated, the uncle seemed to be standing beside her, and the mother, the father, they told her that they would be with her forever, no matter where she was in the ends of the earth, she was not a homeless child.

Ji Lianxing held the pen, and finally signed her name. When she wrote the last stroke of the word "star", a smile appeared on her face.

As if this is not a compensation contract, this is like a ceremony to bid farewell to yesterday.

After Ji Lianxing signed, the only "high-caliber students" in the village signed it.

Ji Lianxing withdrew from the crowd and walked out the door. Standing at the door, she looked up at the sky. Today, the sun in Luoer County is very strong, which is different from City A. It seems that there has never been winter here. In other words, here, the sun in winter is warm.

She squinted, the sun in the sky shone with a golden halo, and warmth shone from thousands of miles away, burning her cold and pale cheeks.

She lowered her head, and there was a short staircase.

Stepping down the first flight of stairs, she has decided to give Wang Xiaoli a dime.

Stepping down the second flight of stairs, she decided to get the demolition payment and left resolutely.

Stepping down the third flight of stairs, she decided not to return here after that.

In front of them is a clear sky, behind them are their laughter.

Get rid of all those old, old, deserted houses, preferably the gem flower in the yard, smash that flower pot, and let the soil go free.

It's saying goodbye to yesterday, and leaving it to see you tomorrow.
