Kindergarten children finish school relatively early, so Shen Bing also leaves work relatively early.
"I'll give Xiaomeng a call first and say..."
When she was about to get off work, Shen Bing took out her mobile phone and called Shi Xiaomeng, but a voice came from the mobile phone, 'Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unanswered, please call again later...'.
"What's going on...Why can't Xiaomeng's phone call go through?"
Shen Bing called several times, but no one answered, and a slightly worried look appeared on his face.
"Maybe his cell phone is out of battery or he's in a meeting. Just send him a text message and talk about it. He's such an old man, so you don't need to worry about him." Yang Zixi said.
"All right……"
Shen Bing nodded and sent him a text message on his mobile phone.
…
Shi Xiaomeng came out of the company and wandered on the street like a lonely ghost. He felt as if he had been abandoned by the whole world, and the sky seemed so gray.
When Shen Bing called Shi Xiaomeng, he was standing on the overpass in despair, holding on to the railings with both hands, looking at the endless flow of vehicles and people under his feet.
At this moment, he even had the urge to jump off the bridge.
What's the point of living for a failure like yourself?
It's better to jump down and be done with it!
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
The sudden ringing of his cell phone woke him up from his confusion and depression.
Shi Xiaomeng picked up the phone and took a look at it, but didn't answer it and just let it keep ringing.
The subsequent text messages were not opened either.
…
night.
When Shen Bing returned home, she found Shi Xiaomeng drunkenly leaning on the sofa, his face flushed, smelling of alcohol, looking decadent and tired.
"Xiao Meng, let me help you go to bed to sleep."
Shen Bing bent down, straightened Shi Xiaomeng's body, and whispered to him.
"Do not touch me----"
Shi Xiaomeng pushed her hand away, opened his eyes drunkenly, looked at Shen Bing and said, "Where have you been? Why don't you go home after get off work? Do you think I'm useless too?"
"Lin Xia and I went to Yang Zixi's house... I couldn't get through when I called you. Then I sent you a text message. Didn't you read it?" Shen Bing said.
"Yang Zixi... why are you looking for her? Yang Zixi is not a good person. You should stay away from her in the future, do you hear me?" Shi Xiaomeng said with an unhappy expression.
As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black.
He was worried that Shen Bing would be influenced by Yang Zixi if she was with Yang Zixi, and she would become a vain woman.
"Okay, I will listen to you. Xiaomeng, you are drunk, let me help you go to bed!"
Shen Bing heard that Shi Xiaomeng interfered with her freedom to make friends. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she still agreed and planned to help him up.
"I'm not drunk, I'm very sober. Didn't you even listen to my words?" Shi Xiaomeng pushed Shen Bing away. A burst of anger suddenly appeared from nowhere, and he looked at Shen Bing angrily and said, "Yang Zixi is a vain bitch. If you stay with her, sooner or later you will become a shameless woman like her! Don't get together with her, or we will break up!"
Hearing Shi Xiaomeng's words, Shen Bing couldn't help but froze. This was the first time she heard the word 'break up' from Shi Xiaomeng's mouth.
In a daze, she seemed to have a hallucination, maybe one day they might really break up!
"No, maybe not..."
Shen Bing murmured, then came back to his senses and said softly: "I listen to you, just don't have contact with her in the future...Xiaomeng, you lie down for a while, I will make you a cup of tea."
After that, she went to the kitchen and came out after a while holding a cup of hot tea.
"Xiao Meng, come on, have a cup of hot tea."
Shi Xiaomeng took a sip of tea and put the cup on the table. The inexplicable anger had dissipated, and he looked at Shen Bing with a guilty look on his face and said: "I'm sorry, girl, I spoke too harshly just now, don't take it to heart. "
"It's okay. I know you've been under too much stress recently and are in a bad mood. I understand, and you don't need to apologize." Shen Bing sat next to him, gently massaging him with her hands, and said softly.
"Girl, why are you so nice to me?" Shi Xiaomeng was moved.
Shen Bing smiled, did not answer, and just continued to massage him.
Shi Xiaomeng leaned into her arms.
The two of them became sweet again, as if nothing had happened, but something seemed to have changed...
…
The next day, Shi Xiaomeng went to the company to pack his things.
Looking at the empty office, his eyes were full of nostalgia and sigh - this is where he has worked and struggled for several years!
A period of his youth is buried here.
Just as Shi Xiaomeng was packing his things silently, he suddenly heard a conversation coming from the manager's office.
"Brother Hu, are you really going to fire Xiao Meng?" It was Hu Rongqiang's female secretary who spoke.
After hearing what happened about him, Shi Xiaomeng was immediately interested. He quietly came outside the manager's office and listened attentively.
In the office, the conversation between Hu Rongqiang and the female secretary continued to be heard.
"How is it possible? I just want to force him to burn his boat... I believe he will definitely win the order from the great master!"
"Why? Hasn't the Great Virtue already spoken out, telling us to stop having such wishful thinking?"
"But Dade hasn't given the order to any company yet, has he? Just wait and see, there will be a miracle!"
"Brother Hu, please stop showing off..."
"Last time I went to Xiaomeng's house for dinner, I found that Cheng Feng, the crown prince of Dade Group, was a little interested in Xiaomeng's girlfriend Shen Bing... Hehe, do you understand now?"
Shi Xiaomeng, who was eavesdropping outside the door, was stunned for a moment, as if five thunders struck his head, and he felt that his world view had been impacted.
"I seem to understand a little bit, but Xiaomeng and his girlfriend grew up together, so their relationship is great!"
"What happened to childhood sweethearts? Is there any love in this world that does not require bread? I understand very well a young man like Cheng Feng. Once he falls in love with a girl, he will not give up until he achieves his goal! Xiao Meng went to beg him for an advertisement , can he miss this opportunity?"
"However, if Xiaomeng knew that Cheng Feng was plotting against his girlfriend, he might not be willing to bow his head."
"That silly boy is slow to react! I bet he still hasn't noticed Cheng Feng's feelings for Shen Bing! Do you know why I rejected his case last time?"
"Why?"
"That stupid boy is eager to get the 80,000 yuan bonus to pay for the down payment of the house! I withheld the money on the pretext that his case was not passed. He has no other way out except to talk to Cheng Feng... …”
"Brother Hu, I really belong to you!"
"Study hard..."
outside the door.
After hearing their conversation, Shi Xiaomeng's face turned livid, his hands clenched tightly into fists, and he wanted to break in through the door for a moment, but in the end he endured it, turned around quietly, and left silently.
What if I go in and expose them?
There is no benefit to you other than beating them up to vent your anger.
He wanted to use more cruel methods to retaliate against Hu Rongqiang and make him feel how he felt now.
At this moment, Shi Xiaomeng's thoughts had quietly changed.
…
After leaving the company, Shi Xiaomeng called Cheng Feng and asked him to meet at the college basketball court. They had a direct showdown with him, then beat him up and broke off all relations with him.
…
Magazine.
"Xiao Xi, I heard that you bought a house?" Yang Chen met Yang Zixi and chatted with her.
"Listen to Lin Xia." Yang Zixi said.
"Um."
Yang Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, I also know a lot about house decoration. I can tell at a glance whether your bed is strong, whether the sound insulation of the house is good, whether the bathtub is leaking... At night I can tell Go and take a look at it for you?"
"Haha, are you going to see a house?"
Yang Zixi rolled her eyes at him charmingly and did not refuse.
After get off work, Yang Chen went to Yang Zixi's home.
The house Yang Zixi bought is in a mid-to-high-end community near Chaoyang Park. It is a well-decorated house with an area of about 150 square meters and a price of 5 million.
She first paid a down payment of 1.5 million and got the house, and the remaining balance will naturally be paid after receiving bonuses from subsequent tasks.
As for whether the subsequent tasks can be completed and whether she will not get the money, such things are not within her consideration at all.
Yang Zixi is a person who has no concept of financial management. She is drunk now and wants to spend all the money she has in her hand. She doesn't even bother to think about the future.
In the evening, Yang Chen helped her check the quality of the house----
It is indeed a boutique community, you get what you pay for, and at least the sound insulation is absolutely no problem.
…
The next morning.
Shen Bing opened the curtains with a flick, and bright sunlight filtered in through the bright glass.
Shi Xiaomeng walked out of the bathroom, dressed neatly, with his hair neatly combed. He stood in front of Shen Bing and said, "How is it?"
"You are very handsome. If I were the boss, I would have to use you." Shen Bing said with a smile.
"You will always be my boss!"
The reason why Shi Xiaomeng dressed up so energetically was to go for a job interview.
After overhearing Hu Rongqiang's trick yesterday, he no longer planned to stay at Hu's Advertising Company. He quickly found a new job while he had time in the past two days.
"Okay, let's go, come on!" Shen Bing said.
Shi Xiaomeng nodded, picked up his briefcase, and left the rental house.
Looking at Shi Xiaomeng's leaving figure, Shen Bing showed a thoughtful look on his face. He felt that something had changed in him. He couldn't explain the reason, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.
"Ding ding, ding, ding, ding, ding..."
At this time, Shen Bing's cell phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID was Yang Chen.
"Shen Bing, do you have time today? I took another order to shoot an advertisement for a women's products store. Do you want to go?" Yang Chen asked.
"OK."
Shen Bing agreed immediately. It happened to be the weekend and he didn't have to go to the kindergarten to work. He had a whole day.
"Okay, I'm outside now and I'll pick you up later."
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome, see you later."
After a while, Yang Chen came to the rental house, picked up Shen Bing and headed to the filming location.
…
the other side.
Shi Xiaomeng walked into a 4A-level advertising company with his resume and recommended himself to the head of the human resources department.
The HR director didn't look at his resume at all and asked directly: "What have you done?"
"I worked in sales at Hu's Advertising Company for three years." Shi Xiaomeng said.
"Hu? Never heard of it. What we need here is more than two years of work experience in a 4A company." The HR director said.
"Although Hu's is not 4A, it is still an established advertising company. I think my ability is no worse than that of 4A employees. I can do everything they can do. You can let me try..." Shi Xiaomeng argued.
"Sorry, you don't meet our employment requirements."
The HR director seemed to have not heard what he said and rejected him calmly, not giving him any chance.
After leaving the first company, Shi Xiaomeng went to the second advertising company.
This time he lowered his requirements and no longer went to a 4A company, but to an ordinary advertising company.
The person interviewing him was an old woman in her forties or fifties. She was dressed in heavy makeup and didn't look like a serious manager.
"Are you married?"
"No."
"It's better not to be married. You can devote yourself to work. If you are married and have a wife and children, how can you still think about work? Besides, girls born in the 1980s are not easy to take care of now. They will act on impulse. If I get married to you, your annual salary will still be less than 100,000 yuan in two years, and you will get divorced and move on to a higher career in a matter of minutes. Do you know what they call this?"
"What?"
"Ride a donkey to find a horse... By the way, are you registered in the capital?"
"...No." Shi Xiaomeng shook his head slightly.
After hearing Shi Xiaomeng's answer, the old woman suddenly lost interest and took care of her own affairs without answering him.
Now Shi Xiaomeng finally realized that this old woman was not looking for an employee at all, but wanted to find herself a husband and get a Beijing household registration.
When I heard that he didn't have a Beijing household registration, I immediately PASSed him out.
After leaving this company, Shi Xiaomeng was still aggrieved. Damn it, even an old woman like this now has to find a local man in the capital to find a husband. It's so damn irritating.
noon.
Shi Xiaomeng sat on the steps of the roadside with a job search newspaper in his hand, gnawing bread and reading the information in the newspaper, his face full of confusion.
At this time, a BMW parked in front of a gold shop not far away.
A girl wearing a white down jacket got out of the car and walked towards the gold store holding a man's arm. Her back was very similar to Shen Bing's.
Shi Xiaomeng's expression suddenly changed, he threw away the half-eaten bread, rushed forward quickly, grabbed the girl's arm and shouted: "Shen Bing..."
"Who are you, crazy?!"
The girl turned around, it was not Shen Bing.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person."
Shi Xiaomeng apologized quickly. If it were at other times, he would not have the slightest doubt about Shen Bing.
However, he had been under too much pressure in the past two days, and was rejected by two companies in the morning. His self-confidence was severely damaged, and he even began to doubt himself. He couldn't help but have the idea that Shen Bing might leave him.
This kind of idea was simply impossible before.
Shi Xiaomeng walked back in despair, picked up the bread, and continued to nibble.
afternoon.
He continued to look for work, and this time he lowered his requirements again and was no longer limited to advertising agencies.
But I have visited all the job search companies and still haven't found a suitable job.
