When I heard the knock on the door, my first thought was takeout. When I opened the door, I saw that it was indeed takeout, but it was Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue raised the takeaway in his hand with a wry smile, "I happened to run into the takeaway guy before I went upstairs. I saw that it was you who ordered it, so I brought it over by the way."
I greeted him with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"Oh, I just wanted to have a drink with you! Hey... Feifei is here too? You guys..." he said absently.
I smiled and pushed him, "It's not what you think, but she's staying at my place these two days."
I noticed something was wrong with him, his face turned pale and his eyes were dull, but he didn't speak and I didn't ask directly.
Zhao Yue smiled and said, "I didn't disturb you, did I?"
Lin Feifei's cheeks turned slightly red, "No, I just want to drink some too!"
"That's great." Zhao Yue finally seemed to be in a better mood.
I ordered the barbecue and paired it with beer. This combination has been a memory for us for many years.
Before I could sit down, the doorbell rang again.
Lin Feifei looked at me with wide eyes, "What did you order again?"
I shrugged, "I didn't order anything."
When he opened the door, he saw Zhou Shutong standing outside.
She had taken off her makeup and stood in front of me with clear soup and dried noodles, but since she was naked, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.
"Have you eaten? Do you want to try my cooking?" Zhou Shutong raised the lunch box in his hand and said with a smile.
"Okay! I happen to have friends at home, let's eat together!"
Zhou Shutong was startled, then smiled, "Isn't it good?"
"What's wrong? You know Feifei. There is another one who is my buddy."
After that, I pulled her in.
As soon as Zhou Shutong came in, I introduced her and Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue greeted her with a smile, "I have long heard Binzi say that his neighbor is a beauty. Today I saw that she is indeed well-deserved."
Zhou Shutong glanced sideways at me and said with a sweet smile: "Don't listen to his nonsense. I didn't expect there were so many people in his family. I should have known how to cook more dishes."
I laughed loudly, "Two dishes are enough, I also ordered barbecue! You sit down first, I will get the dishes and chopsticks."
"Yu Bin, here."
As soon as I walked into the living room, Zhou Shutong and Lin Feifei said to me in unison.
"..."
Damn Zhao Yue was sitting between the two of them. They both said in unison, and my head suddenly felt big.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward at this time.
I winked at Zhao Yue. After being a brother for so many years, he instantly understood. He stood up and waved to me, laughing and joking, "Binzi, sit here with me while I go to the bathroom."
I was relieved, my brother of many years understood me.
I sat down between the two of them, and I obviously felt that the atmosphere had become a little subtle. When Zhao Yue came back, I took the initiative to bring a drink and said, "This is the first time for the four of us to drink. Come on, one of us can go."
Originally, I just wanted to take a sip, but Zhao Yue raised his head and drank the entire cup.
I quickly drained the glass of wine again, and then asked him: "What happened to you today? Tell your brother if you have anything on your mind."
Zhao Yue glanced at the other two beauties and smiled, "Nothing, I just want to have a drink with you. I miss you, okay?"
I looked straight at him, "Zhao Yue, tell me the truth, I don't know you yet?"
Zhao Yue filled the cup in front of him with wine again, raised his head and drank it all in one breath, sighed silently, and said in deep thought:
"I lost my job."
Just these four words made me fall into silence.
Unemployment as an adult begins with a breakdown. I felt the inner torment. Without saying anything, I silently raised my glass and drank another glass with him.
"How about the unemployment gift package? Are you satisfied?" I asked.
Zhao Yue shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I was forced to resign. How can I get any compensation?"
I frowned, and then Zhou Shutong handed each of us a skewer.
"Don't drink dry, eat something."
I took it and took a bite, "What's going on?"
Zhao Yue stared at the floor dully and said in a low voice: "Our company's performance this year has been poor, but the boss is also very picky and does not want to pay compensation. He had a conversation with me once before, and then he heard that I wanted to return to my hometown. , tactfully persuaded me to quit, but when he saw that I wouldn’t leave, he started to find trouble every day, scolding me in front of the whole office at every turn, and he scolded me again today. I got angry and started scolding him, and then I was fired. Apart from."
After saying this, Zhao Yue had finished a bottle of beer. He held a cigarette in his mouth, but his hands were shaking badly. Lin Feifei took the lighter and lit it for him with her own hands.
I took a sip of wine and said, "What are you going to do?"
Zhao Yue smiled bitterly, "What else can I do? Find a job! Don't tell Jingjing! I want to hide it first!"
I laughed angrily, "You're hiding it! I mean you have to ask the company for compensation! This is illegal."
Zhao Yue showed hesitation, pondered for a moment, and sighed, "I don't know what you are talking about, but this is too troublesome, and if there is an arbitration, you don't know when it will be! If it affects me, I will find someone The second job…”
I couldn't help but interrupt him, "What if it's all over the place? I'll accompany you to the arbitration tomorrow."
"He has fired several people from our company. I am not the first one. I am the one to arbitrate..."
"You are used to people like them. If anyone dares to go to arbitration, he would not dare to be so arrogant."
Zhao Yue was silent, took a sip of wine, and said after a while: "Am I too timid?"
I clinked wine glasses with him and said with a smile: "You are either too cowardly or too honest. There is no need to let their bad things affect your view of yourself."
Zhou Shutong smiled and comforted him: "In the workplace! Sometimes taking a step back may not necessarily lead to brighter future. Others may think you are easy to bully and will only try to push you further."
Lin Feifei also advised: "Yes, don't pay too much attention to what others say about you in the workplace, and don't think you are weak. In fact, you are right, it is them who are wrong. You just need to let your kindness be a little sharper."
Zhao Yue smiled bitterly and sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that I would still let others enlighten me at the age of thirty, Binzi, you won't bother me if I complain to you so much, right? "
I laughed and scolded, "What are you talking about! We are buddies. After so many years, who doesn't have troubles as adults! If you don't talk to me, who will you talk to?"
Zhao Yue picked up another cup, "As long as you say this, I'll finish this cup."
The four of us raised glasses together and took a sip of wine before I asked: "How are you going to tell Jingjing about this?"
As soon as I finished speaking, my cell phone rang.
When I opened it, I smiled bitterly.
It really said that Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived. As soon as he finished reciting it, Lu Jingjing called...
