Ren Zixian didn't have the energy to think about who paid her medical bills, nor did he have the energy to deal with Xu Xuanming, who was temporarily her savior.
After the fever subsided, Xu Xuanming sent her back to the apartment, told her to take her medicine and asked for leave so that she could rest peacefully, so she remained free and did not go to the project team.
She read the information mechanically every day, pondering it over and over again, and Ren Zixian didn't know when this state would end.
When I wake up, I take Gui for a walk in the courtyard of the community and eat a few warm or cold meals.
When I was tired, I would lie down on the bed and sleep with my eyes closed, dreaming countless bizarre dreams, but when I woke up, I couldn't remember any scene in the dream.
She was sleeping lightly, no matter whether it was raining or a little turtle chewing a toy, she would wake up. Even when she woke up, she would feel exhausted both physically and mentally.
She went to the doctor and was prescribed some sleeping pills, but they had no effect.
The doctor suggested that she seek help from a psychologist, and Ren Zixian made an appointment with the expert.
But before going out, I would huddle uneasily under the quilt and miss appointments all the time, seeking psychological comfort by taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor.
Ren Zixian checked her condition online. The doctor online said that it might be due to excessive psychological pressure and asked her to find some entertainment to relieve her stress or distract her attention.
She turned on her computer to watch the concerts of idol stars, and saw the concerts of this century from the last century.
Whether it's rock music, folk music, classical music or opera, I listen to them all, and I don't reject them all, but I can't get them into my head.
The light flashed frequently in the room, and the enthusiasm on the computer could not be conveyed to this small room. It only made Ren Zixian's face paler. In the end, she was dizzy and couldn't see anything before she gave up.
She also changed her clothes and sent Xiao Gui to foster care, planning to go to the tourist towns around Yanshi and stay for a few days to relax.
However, after only half a day out, she turned back aimlessly.
Nothing interests me, even the tea set is placed in the box and I don’t even have the energy to take it out.
But fortunately, she also knew that something was not right with her, so she would eat something even if she had no appetite and felt nauseous.
The last time he went to the hospital, Xu Xuanming saw Ren Zixian who was not feeling well. She hadn't come to the laboratory in the past few days, which made Xu Xuanming a little worried.
He handed the spare key to Qin Yiyi and asked her to visit Ren Zixian in the apartment from time to time.
"Why me?" Qin Yiyi was confused as she held the key, "Isn't Ren Zixian just sick with a cold?"
"I can't tell. I always feel that something is wrong with her." Xu Xuanming asked her, "I can't just go into a girl's apartment as a man. I can only ask you to take care of her and treat you to dinner another day."
Xu Xuanming's attitude made Qin Yiyi feel happy: "Don't just think that you will be free after taking office."
Xu Xuanming did not deny it: "Anyway, if you can, you should go to the apartment to see her more often. I ordered chicken soup for her, and you can also send it to her."
The joking in Qin Yiyi's eyes was even more intense: "Okay, then I'll do a good deed and help you visit Ren Zixian."
Qin Yiyi found Ren Zixian's new home according to the address provided by Xu Xuanming. There were withered flowers at the door, which seemed to have been there for two days.
She couldn't just use the key to open the door, so she could only knock on the door.
"Ren Zixian, are you there?" There was no response from inside. Qin Yiyi knocked on the door gently and called Ren Zixian, but no one answered.
After about ten minutes, Qin Yiyi opened the door with the spare key.
Xu Xuanming's house is on the first floor, so the lighting is not particularly good, it is dark and a bit damp.
There was no light on inside, so Qin Yiyi fumbled to turn on the light in the living room.
Ren Zixian's suitcase was still almost intact. Only the box with ordinary items was opened, and there were some toiletries inside.
There was a box of cold takeout on the dining table, and Qin Yiyi saw the packaging in the school cafeteria at a glance.
I heard from other seniors that the old principal hired a local chef to make the school canteen at first. Then after the old principal retired, the school outsourced the canteen to other companies.
In order to make a profit, outsourcing companies will definitely save costs and will not spend more money. Most meals use pre-made dishes, and fast dishes such as braised chicken are also made with wholesale frozen meat.
In addition, prices have increased a lot, so except for international students like Qin Yiyi who have just returned to China and are not picky about food, students who can afford it also go out to eat.
Qin Yiyi was a little surprised that Ren Zixian ate in the school cafeteria instead of cooking by herself. Can she eat it?
She walked around the dining table and walked inside. The bedroom was very conspicuous, with the door ajar and a flickering dark light inside.
"Let yourself be free?" Even a bold person like Qin Yiyi was a little uneasy, so she opened the bedroom door with a creak.
The bedroom was very small, only about twenty square meters. Ren Zixian found a second-hand printer from somewhere and was printing white paper.
Ren Zixian was wrapped in a gray-black plush blanket and fell asleep leaning on a chair.
Her brows were furrowed tightly and her expression was painful, as if she was having an endless nightmare.
Qin Yiyi walked over lightly.
Suddenly, Ren Zixian opened his eyes abruptly, his eyes unfocused, like a drowning man who suddenly came ashore from the suffocating deep sea and took a big breath.
Qin Yiyi became anxious immediately. She rushed over to give Ren Zixian some relief: "Drink some water!"
There was no trace of heat in Ren Zixian's house, and there was only cold water that was put in the kettle at some point. After having to give her a small drink of half a cup, Ren Zixian slowly calmed down.
"Qin Yiyi?" Ren Zixian's eyes gradually focused, "Why are you here?"
"I think you'll die if I don't come," Qin Yiyi looked at Ren Zixian carefully. She hadn't seen him for only a few days. Ren Zixian was much haggard, his face was unhealthy gray, and even dark circles appeared under his eyes. The whole person looked haggard.
"How did you get yourself into this..." Qin Yiyi hesitated, and then asked after a moment, "Is it because you broke up with Lin Qingsong?"
Ren Zixian was stunned for a moment and didn't realize what she was talking about. After thinking about it, he shook his head: "It has nothing to do with him. It's my own business."
Seeing her saying this, Qin Yiyi couldn't say anything, so she could only order a meal for her.
"Go out for a walk after eating." Qin Yiyi opened the window and pulled back the curtains. "You're in such bad spirits. Anyway, it's always good to take a walk and breathe some fresh air."
Ren Zixian had a hard time eating. After swallowing a mouthful of cabbage, she pushed it away and stopped eating. Qin Yiyi forcefully forced her to eat less than half a bowl of rice and drank a few mouthfuls of hot chicken soup. She gave up when she saw that she really couldn't eat anymore. .
"Where is your puppy?" Qin Yiyi asked, "Let's go walk the dog. It's okay if people don't leave the house, but the puppy will get suffocated if he doesn't leave the house."
Ren Zixian seemed to have just remembered her puppy. She looked down with some sluggishness, and sure enough, the little Gui was not lying at her feet.
She searched around to no avail. She took her cell phone and was about to send a message about the dog, when she saw the owner of the pet shop sending her dozens of messages, reporting to her every day about the little Gui's current situation.
A walk in the morning and a walk in the evening, plus three meals and snacks. If you complete one item every day, you will send her a photo or a video.
"I seem to have fostered the little Gui." Ren Zixian said to Qin Yiyi in a daze, "Do you want to pick it up?"
Qin Yiyi was speechless for a moment: "Forget it, let him stay in the pet shop."
Ren Zixian should not be able to take care of a puppy that needs to be fed and walked every day.
Qin Yiyi squatted on one knee in front of Ren Zixian: "Ren Zixian, tell me, are you doing this because you want to break up with Lin Qingsong? Is he so important to you?"
Ren Zixian shook his head.
Although she denied it, Qin Yiyi was still very regretful. Ren Zixian obviously couldn't live without Lin Qingsong. What on earth did she do?
Now that Lin Qingsong is no longer looking for Ren Zixian, she can't persuade Ren Zixian to go back to being her lover.
"Come with me for a walk." Ren Zixian looked at Qin Yiyi's troubled expression and didn't care what she had misunderstood.
…
The air pressure in Lin's building is very low, and there are piles of documents on the table in Lin Qingsong's office, which Lin Qingsong ordered people to deliver.
As the New Year approaches, it happens to be a time for companies to take stock of their interactions with each other. In the past, Lin Qingsong also kept an eye on the market.
But this year was obviously even more special. A certain project manager was waiting tremblingly, his collar almost wet with cold sweat, and even Wang Qi did not dare to say anything.
"There is a problem with the accounts here. Let's go and settle it clearly before we come back." Lin Qingsong frowned and looked unhappy. "It's not a new project. If there are confusing accounts next time, you should ask for resignation!"
The project manager quickly agreed that it would be good if he could resubmit the information. The worst he could do would be to work overtime in the department and get overtime pay. If he was really fired by Lin, then he wouldn't have to hang out in the circle.
You must know that several confirmed projects have been killed in the past few days, and many people in charge were embarrassed at the scene. The most important thing is that Lin Qingsong is not unreasonable.
Which project has no problems?
It’s not that all the mistakes on the topic will be postponed until after the Chinese New Year. This is something that everyone understands tacitly.
Of course Wang Qi knew the reason for Lin Qingsong's abnormal mood. Recently, many people had tried to test him, but he dismissed them with a cryptic expression.
Among them was Jian Fangshu, who was rejected.
Lin Qingsong withdrew all undecided projects with Jian's Company, and made it clear that the contracts for projects already in progress would not be renewed.
He no longer considered how other companies and shareholders speculated on this matter, but everyone received a signal: the Jian family had angered Lin Qingsong, and their original plan to use Lin Qingsong as a springboard completely failed.
Even several companies that have cooperated with them have adopted a wait-and-see attitude.
Jian Congwei's company struggled within days.
Not only Jian Congwei was anxious, but even Jian Fangshu was a little confused. She wanted to see Lin Qingsong more than once, but she was turned away every time.
Even if Lin Qingsong didn't say anything, Wang Qi knew what was going on.
He had a hunch when he received Su Ye's call that day that this matter would definitely be serious.
Lin Qingsong is not a person who indulges in sensuality, not to mention he has a controlled personality and has never liked drinking.
Sure enough, when he arrived at Jinhai Villa that day, he found that Ren Zixian had left, even taking her slippers with him, without even a single souvenir.
