"Hey, I'm talking to you."
Liao Ying saw that something was wrong with Li Ji's behavior today and hurriedly reached out to give him a hand.
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was distracted..."
Li Ji took his hands back in embarrassment and rubbed his knees twice.
At this moment, there was a customer over there who had finished eating. The clerk cleared the table and called Li Ji and the others to come over.
Li Jiru was granted amnesty, greeted Han Mei, picked up Liao Ying, and hurried away.
Han Mei stood there, looking at the backs of the two of them, biting her lips, and suddenly said to Tao Shanming, "If you don't want to eat, let's go!"
Tao Shanming looked confused. Seeing Han Mei walking out the door, he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly followed.
A few tables apart, Li Ji looked at Han Mei from afar. Seeing her leaving suddenly, I was a little surprised. I stood up, opened my mouth, and then sat down quickly.
"Look at you, your soul is gone?"
Liao Ying became a little angry when she saw Li Ji's appearance.
Li Ji looked at Liao Ying and smiled, feeling a little at a loss.
...
After meeting Han Mei that night, Li Ji didn't call Han Mei, and Han Mei didn't contact Li Ji either.
The two people seemed to have reached an agreement and disappeared into thin air, walking out of each other's world at the same time.
Li Ji no longer had any miscellaneous thoughts in his heart, he was completely determined and honest.
Go to work and get off work every day, go shopping, read books, and listen to music. Occasionally, when the mood strikes, I take out my guitar and play some school ballads to reminisce about the bygone days.
The days have returned to their long-lost calm.
After work that day, Li Ji went to Marriott View Garden.
For a while, because of all the messy things, he never bothered to visit Mr. Wan.
Wan Daming was very happy to see Li Ji and stayed with Li Ji to have dinner with him. Wan Daming was very happy to hear that Li Ji had gone to the branch as the vice president and drank a few more drinks.
Marriott Group is temporarily out of trouble. It's just that the group still has many things that require his personal attention, and Wan Daming is still very busy every day.
Both of them deliberately avoided Wan Cheng's death, and no one mentioned the matter of Wanhao Trading Company.
Li Ji felt a little sad when he saw that the old man had lost a lot of weight and his hair had turned whiter. I was even more embarrassed to tell Wan Daming about my own affairs.
After eating and sitting for a while, Li Ji left.
The lanterns are on.
The weather is getting colder, and the trees on the street are beginning to have yellow leaves.
Li Ji walked leisurely along the green brick street.
The peaceful days gave him a lot of peace of mind, but he was also a little lonely and bored. There are always some restless thoughts in his heart, which occasionally make him excited and nervous at the same time.
Passing by a small newsstand, there are many newly published magazines.
Li Ji stopped and looked through it with interest for a while.
The shop owner is an old man in his sixties, wearing reading glasses and his hair is completely white. He was sitting in a narrow pavilion, reading a book "The Beginning of Man" intently.
Li Ji bought a copy of "Football World", a "Football Club" and a "Sound World".
He paid the money and was about to leave when he suddenly saw the "Quancheng Evening News" in the corner.
It was like suddenly seeing an old friend whom I hadn't seen for many years on the streets of a foreign land, and it suddenly brought back Li Ji's memories of his college days.
He took out his money again and bought a copy of "Quancheng Evening News".
Li Ji put several magazines into his bag and walked slowly with the newspaper in his hand.
Standing on the side of the road, using the street lights, I browsed casually. When his eyes fell on the last page, Li Ji's heart beat wildly.
An entire page is filled with recruitment announcements from Fengcheng Rural Credit Cooperative.
Li Ji's hands started to shake.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath; after a while, he slowly opened them again.
You read that right, this is indeed the Rural Credit Cooperative recruitment announcement that Han Mei said.
Among a large number of recruitment information, Li Ji saw the position at a glance: General Manager of the Headquarters Credit Management Department.
His heart seemed to be beating uncontrollably, and his face felt like it was being burned.
Li Ji read it word by word twice, then carefully folded the newspaper, put it in his bag, and hit the road to hail a taxi.
The newspaper was from the day before yesterday.
Li Ji was a little hesitant.
To sign up, or not to sign up. This is a problem.
He thought about it over and over, but still couldn't make up his mind.
There is no need to think about Han Mei now, there is no hope at all.
His role as "fake son-in-law" ends here. If you want to participate in recruitment, you can only rely on your own ability.
But if you go into battle alone and with bare hands, no matter how good you are in the exam, you will inevitably be "unspoken rules" in the end.
After all the hard work and hard work, in the end it might just be "study with the prince", acting as the poor denominator.
Li Ji thought about it for several days, but was still unwilling to give up.
"Go try it."
Deep in his heart, there seemed to be a voice telling Li Ji.
On the last day of recruitment registration deadline, Li Ji finally made a decision.
He found an excuse and secretly went to the credit union.
In the lobby on the first floor, looking at the still crowded registration site, Li Jilai's confidence that he was determined to win suddenly deflated like a balloon.
It seems that there must be many people participating in the recruitment.
Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.
Registration has come to an end, and there are still so many people. Presumably, the salary, which is several times higher than that of ordinary banks, must be very tempting.
Li Ji stood aside and watched for a while, and for a moment he really wanted to give up. But after hesitantly walked to the door, he still hesitated and walked back.
When the reception staff saw off the last applicant, arranged the materials on the table, and was about to take a drink of water and relax, Li Ji rushed up.
Under the surprised looks of several people, Li Ji quickly filled out the form and handed it to the middle-aged woman with a baby face and short hair.
He let out a long breath, as if he had accomplished something important that he had been looking forward to for a long time, and he felt a sense of relief.
But a moment later, a faint sense of loss and inexplicable panic hit his body again. Li Ji scratched his hair hard, looking a little frustrated.
After those people packed up the materials, several security guards came over and carried the table away. The hall suddenly became empty.
Li Ji was stunned and found a security guard next to him looking at him with some confusion. Li Ji suddenly realized that he could no longer stand here and it was time to leave.
He smiled sheepishly at the security guard, turned around, and walked towards the revolving door.
After walking a few steps, the door of an elevator not far away suddenly opened, and a young woman with a good figure walked out.
Li Ji glanced at it unintentionally, shrank his neck in fright, turned around and walked back.
The security guard felt even more strange when he saw Li Ji leaving and coming back in a panic. He stepped forward and asked Li Ji politely: "Sir, do you want to help?"
Li Ji glanced back nervously and looked around. Fortunately, the woman didn't pay attention to him and didn't go this way. Instead, she walked towards the door.
Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head to meet the security guard's gaze, which looked like a thief. He was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly: "I... no, I'm sorry, where is the bathroom?"
The security guard looked at Li Ji with confusion on his face, paused, and then pointed to the other side of the hall: "It's over there. Turn around and keep walking..."
"thanks, thanks!"
Li Ji kept talking and ran over like flying.
The security guard was stunned, watching Li Ji's back disappear, and suddenly muttered: "Fuck, this guy is sick."
Li Ji couldn't care less about the security guard's ridicule at this time. It wasn't until he entered the bathroom that his heartbeat slowed down.
Li Ji stood in front of the mirror and took a look, and found that his face looked very bad. The dark circles under his eyes were obvious, and his hair was noticeably longer.
He sighed.
Fortunately, I wasn't face to face with Han Mei in the hall just now. Otherwise, the scene would be so embarrassing. At least in my opinion, it's a bit pricey.
Someone has good intentions and wants to help you, but you justly refuse, and then you secretly come to sign up later. What's going on?
Four or five minutes later, Li Ji came out of the bathroom. Except for a few security guards, there was no one else in the hall.
Li Ji tugged on his shirt, then reached out to straighten his hair, straightened his back, and walked over as if nothing had happened.
After leaving the door and walking down the high steps, Li Ji looked back at the building of the Rural Credit Union.
Even though the Rural Credit Cooperative is a local financial institution, this office building is really impressive.
In comparison, the buildings of several state-owned banks look a bit shabby.
No matter what kind of temple or what kind of monks there are, only those who have money and dare to spend money are good abbots.
It’s not bad to work in a rural credit cooperative.
At this moment, Li Ji's heart felt warm again. It seemed as if I saw myself sitting in the office building of the Rural Credit Cooperative, condescending, spacious and bright, and full of energy.
It would be great if Han Mei's father would help.
Somehow, this shameful thought came to Li Ji's mind again.
There is really no future, Li Ji secretly cursed himself. He glanced melancholy, turned around, and walked towards the road.
The sun has gone down, but the last golden afterglow still hangs in the sky.
In front of the door stood two large stone lions, each as tall as two people. In the darkening sky, the lion moves its head and tail, opens its teeth and dances its claws, preparing to pounce, lifelike.
Li Ji stood in front of him, took another look, then lowered his head and walked forward with a heavy heart.
He walked to the side of the street, looked across, and was about to reach out to stop the car.
Suddenly, Li Ji's hand stopped; he turned sharply, ran backwards, and hid behind a stone lion.
He stretched out his head and looked over there quietly.
Less than a hundred meters away, next to an off-road vehicle on the street, Han Mei was talking to a man with her back on her back.
At this time, it was still daylight.
Li Ji's eyesight was 1.5 and he could see clearly.
Although the man was half-shielded by Han Mei's body, Li Ji could still recognize him as Tao Shanming from his body shape and the way he spoke.
Damn, the fight got heated so quickly.
The sour grape in Li Ji's heart began to grow leaves.
He was really not jealous, and he had never wanted Han Mei to be his girlfriend. However, in Li Ji's view, Han Mei can find anyone to be her boyfriend, except Tao Shanming.
It's hard to talk about "revenge for killing his father" or "hate for taking away his wife", but when Li Ji thinks of Tao Shanming, his toothaches from hatred. I wanted to punch him down on the road and then step on him a few times.
There is another doubt that always lingers in Li Ji's mind: Was the man in Wang Shulan's office that day Tao Shanming?
Li Ji was not sure. But close your eyes, think about that man's voice, and then recall Tao Shanming's words. It's really the same person.
Li Jizheng was thinking wildly, but when he heard Han Mei suddenly say something, he turned around and strode towards this side.
Li Ji was shocked. In his embarrassment, he didn't have time to think about anything more. He jumped out from behind the stone lion and hurried away in the opposite direction along the street.
Han Mei was walking back angrily when she suddenly saw someone jumping out from behind a stone lion and running to the other side.
Han Mei was also startled. She looked at the man's back, pouted, and cursed bitterly: "What's wrong with this man? He's crazy!"
As she spoke, Han Mei walked towards the office building.
Suddenly, with a thought in her mind, she stopped abruptly, turned back sharply, and looked for the direction in which the man was running.
There were few pedestrians on the street, and the figure of the man had shrunk into a blurry ball, gradually getting further away, and finally became a black dot in the field of vision.
Han Mei was stunned for a moment, feeling a little strange.
That man's back looks a bit... familiar.
A bit familiar, really.
