In fact, Zhou Zhengan didn't understand why he had to sit here for a while every night and didn't go up to look for her. It seemed that only in this way could he feel at ease. Otherwise, he would stay in the institute and always think about her injured leg.
Thinking that they were closer, if she really called him if something happened, he would be able to arrive in time.
Very contradictory, Zhou Zhengan didn't want to rush upstairs to find her. He was afraid of disturbing Jiang Nan and making Jiang Nan unhappy.
This contradictory feeling is not very pleasant.
The week when Jiang Nan's leg was about to heal, Zhou Zhixu came to see Jiang Nan. She had come often in the past few days, but because of work, she didn't stay for a short time. Today was the weekend, so she stayed longer.
Zhou Zhixu is very familiar with her family and eats snacks and melon seeds. However, Jiang Nan does not keep these things at home. She brings everything she eats.
I bring it every time and eat it every time, just right.
"Nannan, are you going to have your plaster removed tomorrow? I'll go with you then." Zhou Zhixu was eating melon seeds again, and his words became a little awkward.
Jiang Nan glanced at her, lowered his head and flipped through the documents in his hand: "It's been a whole month, hard for you to remember."
Zhou Zhixu shook his head and said very honestly: "My brother told me to remember to accompany you, otherwise I really wouldn't remember."
Jiang Nan's men paused and said nothing.
Zhou Zhixu continued: "Nan Nan, seriously, do you want to consider my brother again? I feel that if it were you, he would definitely be willing to remarry. He is a duplicitous person. You will find out if you get to know him better. He is still a very good person, otherwise he would not have specifically told me to remember to accompany you to remove the plaster. Really, there is no other best man besides him."
Jiang Nan's eyes fell on the book, and she didn't know how far her mind had wandered. Unfortunately, what Zhou Zhixu said was not what she greedily wanted. He was very good, but in a relationship, it was not just like this.
She just said nonchalantly: "Ren Xianzhi cried after hearing what you said."
"That's different." Zhou Zhixu raised his hand.
"What's the difference?"
Zhou Zhixu put the melon seeds in his hand aside and was about to play with her when the phone on the table suddenly rang.
Both of them looked over. It was Jiang Nan's cell phone that was ringing. Jiang Nan bent forward, picked up the cell phone, and put it to his ear.
On the other end of the phone was a man's elegant voice: "Miss Jiang Nan?"
"yes."
The person who called her was Xu Jing. Jiang Nan had been listening attentively, thinking that he was telling her some supplementary matters in the divorce agreement, otherwise she would not have been able to figure out why this person was looking for her.
"It's like this. Are you free recently? I would like to treat you to a meal. I have been a little busy during this period and have not been able to contact you. I hope you won't mind." Xu Jing said.
The man's voice faintly passed through the microphone and reached Zhou Zhixu's ears. She could clearly hear what was being asked for dinner, make contact, and piece it together, and she roughly understood it.
Zhou Zhixu listened more seriously than Jiang Nan.
"No, but...why do you suddenly want to invite me to dinner? Is there something wrong?" Jiang Nan raised his brows slightly, very puzzled.
Xu Jing looked very calm on the other end of the phone: "Is this okay as an ordinary dinner between men and women?"
Jiang Nan was stunned for a while, then hesitantly said: "Okay."
"What about next Wednesday night? I'll pick you up."
"Okay." Jiang Nan responded.
After the two hung up the phone, Zhou Zhixu rushed to Jiang Nan anxiously: "Are you going on a date with someone else? Next Wednesday?"
"It's not a date, it's just an ordinary dinner. Didn't you hear everything? Why are you still guessing?"
Zhou Zhixu let out a "chee" sound and said, "Do you believe this excuse? I don't believe it anyway."
Jiang Nan was dull for a moment. Indeed, even if she didn't see Xu Jing's thoughts last time, she should have figured it out this time. However, Jiang Nan couldn't refuse directly. After all, Xu Jing was the one who had helped her.
But she really didn't plan to get involved in a new relationship so soon, so this was quite a headache.
She didn't even understand how a lawyer as big as Xu Jing could fall in love with her.
"Zhixu, why do you think that as people grow up, their lives become more and more chaotic? There are endless things to deal with and endless tangles in life." Jiang Nan said dullly.
"You are asking for trouble." Zhou Zhixu poked her face: "Look at me, I never have these troubles."
Jiang Nan lowered his eyebrows and smiled, and said softly: "Indeed, I have always envied you."
"Why do you envy me?" Zhou Zhixu didn't take it seriously, thinking she was joking.
Jiang Nan still had a faint smile on his face: "You have such a good family, a brother who loves you, a husband who loves you, and a good job. What's not to envy about you?"
Zhou Zhixu didn't see any trace of joking on her face. She gradually stopped smiling when she heard Jiang Nan continue: "Did you know? When you were hospitalized, I saw Ren Xian sitting alone in the corridor. , his lost and silent look was nothing like the one we usually know. At that moment, I seemed to feel the grand love between you that cannot be destroyed by anyone. Think about it, a person can get such a love in this life. If we have a mutual love, then why be afraid that death will seem even smaller as we grow older."
Zhou Zhixu was stunned for a moment, then he put aside his head and said with a smile: "You are so good at talking, why don't you become a screenwriter?"
Jiang Nan curled her lips and slowly looked out the window. The big tree outside had many new buds sprouting on its branches. It was so green that it covered half of the blue sky.
Just right.
...
On the first day Jiang Nan recovered from her injury and returned to the company, Xu Pingsheng excitedly called her into his office. She looked at his gaping teeth and smiled strangely: "What's going on?"
Xu Pingsheng stopped smiling, looked at her and said, "Jiang Nan, do you still remember what I mentioned to you before?"
"What?"
"It's the boss of LT who wants to see you. Why don't you take such an important matter seriously?"
"What do you want to see me for?"
"Tsk." Xu Pingsheng glanced at her with disgust: "I really don't know how you became a translator of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with your intelligence." He coughed twice and explained to Jiang Nan, who looked confused: "Their boss's assistant contacted me earlier. Didn't you hurt your foot and didn't go to see him? Later, they sent a message specifically to care about you. Then, please let me ask you, do you want to Work as a translator in their company?"
Jiang Nan's eyes widened in surprise: "Is it because of the incident I handled urgently that day?"
Are big companies recruiting people so casually?
"Do you think they are stupid and sweet? Their company's recruitment requirements have always been very high. Although there are not many people in the translation department, they are all top-notch. There are many people who want to join, and they are all queuing up. The company does not We are short of people. I am willing to hire you this time. It is also because they have recently launched a new Seth project. They need a large number of people to go to West Asia. They may go for three to five months. Naturally, they need to increase their manpower. In addition, they have seen Your resume, as well as your work experience over the years, I think you are quite suitable, so let me ask you, are you willing?"
Jiang Nan lowered his eyebrows and slowly cleared his thoughts in his heart.
Seeing her silence, Xu Pingsheng thought she was hesitating, so he couldn't help but said anxiously: "Why are you hesitating? Although it will be difficult to go to West Asia, you will be a regular employee of LT after you come back. The salary is high, and Isn’t it better than being decent here?”
Jiang Nan raised his head and said in a very calm voice: "I agreed without hesitation."
Xu Pingsheng suddenly became happy, and turned around to grab the cell phone on the table. He was editing messages very quickly in his hand. Jiang Nan said seriously at the side: "Thank you Xu Pingsheng."
"You're welcome." Xu Ping said casually.
"..."
Soon, LT sent a thick stack of information to Jiang Nan. Xu Pingsheng did not give Jiang Nan any more assignments and gave her enough time to study it carefully.
Jiang Nan had been busy with these things. It wasn't until Xu Jing sent her a message on Wednesday morning that she suddenly realized that she would have dinner with Xu Jing today.
Xu Jing happened to be here to remind her of her afternoon appointment.
At noon, Jiang Nan ate something casually at home, then sat on the sofa with the thick stack of materials and continued reading. It was not until about five o'clock in the afternoon that the alarm on his cell phone that he had ordered earlier rang, and Jiang Nan hurriedly closed the materials. Go and change clothes.
The restaurant they ate at was booked by Xu Jing. It was a window seat in a Western-style restaurant. The environment was very good. What they could see from the window was Beixin's famous Green Lake.
When Jiang Nan arrived, Xu Jing had not yet arrived, so she flipped through her phone to check information about Seth's plan.
Today is still a special day, the anniversary of Zhou Zhixu and Ren Xianzhi's love. They are already sitting in the restaurant where they often ate when they were in love. On the table is a custom-made bouquet specially prepared for Zhou Zhixu by Ren Xianzhi.
Zhou Zhixu was very satisfied with this gift. To be precise, what she was most satisfied with about Ren Xianzhi was probably his talent for romance. Even though they had been in love for many years, Ren Xianzhi could always surprise her. .
Maybe this is what people often say, the freshness of love.
While they were waiting for the food to be served, Zhou Zhixu accidentally caught a glimpse of a young couple at the table next to them. The girl's meek appearance suddenly reminded her of Jiang Nan.
Zhou Zhixu's brain was instantly activated, and she suddenly remembered what happened at Jiang Nan's house that day.
"It's terrible, it's terrible." Zhou Zhixu said in a panic, immediately forgetting all the sweetness of the anniversary.
Ren Xianzhi saw her holding the phone and lowering her head to search desperately. He couldn't help but smile and said, "What's wrong?"
"Don't talk yet." Zhou Zhixu made a shushing gesture to him. She finally found someone's phone number in her address book and dialed it.
Ren Xianzhi made a gesture of sewing a zipper, then obediently stopped talking and looked at her with his head propped up.
"Hurry up and answer the phone." Listening to the "beep beep" sound over there, Zhou Zhixu felt anxious.
Fortunately, her inner prayer worked, and the call was connected after more than ten seconds.
