"Oh! Look at your gloomy look. Why is it because the male employee transferred from the headquarters is not the male employee you have been dreaming about?"
When Sun Meiyu was about to get up and leave, she heard a sarcastic roar in her ears. Like a sudden blow, Sun Meiyu rolled her eyes and her side face was as sharp as a sharp blade.
"What are you talking about?! I was just joking with the branch manager. If you don't believe me, go to his office and ask!"
Looking at the faces of his colleagues around him, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of Shen Zhenghuan's mouth, a helpless smile.
"Yes, Director Liu, I just went to the branch to say hello to everyone, and I am now walking home."
After finally getting rid of her fatigue, Chengmei slowly walked up the steep slope like a snail.
"It's been a long time since you applied for the transfer. I'm really sorry that I didn't transfer you to the branch until now."
"It's okay. I feel very sorry for you taking so much trouble for me. If it weren't for your help, I might have run back and forth around Ancheng several times."
Chengmei slowed down her pace again, grabbing the heavy satchel with one hand, and holding her cell phone to her ear with the other.
"What should I do? What should I do? Where have you gone? My ancestor Chengyan!" Seungmei raised her head and saw her mother Yin Qingshan fell heavily to the ground from a distance, and then buried her head deep in her knees. middle.
"Thank you in advance, Director Liu. I'll contact you later. It's a bit urgent." Chengmei said, rushing to her mother's side like a gust of wind under her feet.
"Seungmei, you came back just in time. Your sister Chengyan disappeared again. She was still sitting on the sofa before I went to the bathroom?!" Yin Qingshan trembled her lips and shouted with despair on her face. He slapped the ground with one hand and made a thumping sound.
"Stop complaining now, I'm going to look in front. Mom, please turn back quickly." Before he finished speaking, Yin Qingshan began to push Chengmei's shoulders. The buzz of dissatisfaction and complaints is getting louder, and the beating of Chengmei's heart is also getting louder and louder.
Beethoven's piano solo "Für Elise" flows from the light music channel, and the melodious melody is accompanied by the rhythmic swing of the wipers on the windshield. Beethoven's music will make people feel excited no matter when they listen to it, but only today, Yucheng has been looking ahead with a frown.
"Li Chengmei? Li Chengmei! Is there really such an endless cycle of karma and retribution in this world?"
The heavy rain wet the earth, the air became fresh and cool, and the tender green leaves shone brightly in the scattered sunlight. Under the gentle rubbing of raindrops, the color of the leaves gradually deepens and becomes thicker. Passing through this familiar greenery, in front of you is Cheng Yan's favorite children's playground. Thinking of this, Chengmei quickened her pace.
"Sung Yeon!"
This playground is surrounded by several similar low-rise communities and newly built high-rise single apartments. Centered at the bus terminal, there are several old-style individual residences embedded in the midpoint. Surrounded by towering green trees, this neighborhood is always quiet.
"Chengyan, Chengyan, stop making trouble. Sister knows you are in there, come out quickly!" Chengmei stopped tiredly. This was not the first time she had run here to look for her sister. At this time, the gate of the playground is slightly ajar, and the slide in the center extends to the pavilion at the back. The sunlight and the shade of the locust tree are perfectly integrated. The wisteria swing on the left is swaying disapprovingly. This swing has been with Cheng Yan for more than 10 years and is as important as her compatriots and close friends. Cheng Mei thinks that her sister Cheng Yan may have just left here not long ago.
"Seung-yeon! Are you playing hide-and-seek with your sister? My sister will come to find you after counting." Seung-mei put her head on the wire fence of the playground, supported the net with both hands, and slowly moved from the crook of her arms. Li raised his head. At this moment, there was a faint sound of breathing in her ears, and Chengmei immediately tiptoed towards the carousel where the black shadow originated. The sound of rapid breathing was still very familiar at first, the shadow of the locust tree was firmly reflected on the girl's body, and the surroundings were completely silent. Chengmei quietly stared at the back, from feet to waist, but the familiar clothes were not worn on that familiar woman! Seeing the girl's upper body completely reflected in the sun, Chengmei was hit hard. Her legs were shaking, and panic and fear were oppressing her eyes and chest almost at the same time.
"Sung Yeon! Lee Sung Yeon!" Even if the sky fell, the rivers dried up, the sea froze, and the sky tore open in circles like velvet, Seung Mi would never be so panicked as she was now that she would use her hands and feet to run out. .
But a few minutes later, the sky turned into a dirty ditch again, and the land turned into an endless swamp. Seung-mei's feet were so swollen that she could hardly move! Waiting at the Shishi intersection where the lights refused to change, she felt that the bones in her body were breaking one by one, but she still gritted her teeth tightly and panted to prevent herself from completely collapsing.
"Hello! Have you seen my sister?" Looking at the face of the fruit stand owner shaking like a rattle, Cheng Mei felt terribly scared. Her sister Cheng Yan was born with autism, and it was always a shame to sneak outside alone. A terrible incident that is unimaginable to ordinary people! If she can't find her family within a short period of time, she will definitely lose it or die! So at this time, Chengmei had to grasp tightly even if it was just a straw.
"Did you just see a girl who looks similar to me and is a head taller than me?"
"Please, please recall carefully, have you seen the girl in the photo coming towards the road?!" If it is fear, it must be the kind of uncontrollable, overwhelming fear. The people walking over had strange expressions on their faces, so Chengmei was extremely panicked. After people lined up and walked away from Chengmei's shoulders like a wave, a familiar sound of breathing unknowingly echoed in Chengmei's ears like iron boots occupying an area, very loud and irritable.
"What should I do? What should Cheng Yan do if she can't find her way home again?!" Every time Cheng Mei took a deep breath, her thin collarbone and plump face would rise and fall violently. Gradually, a bean-like drop of yellow sweat seeped out from her forehead, which was more distinct than her collarbone, and soon flowed into her snow-white shirt.
"Chengmei, Chengmei, what should we do? I asked everyone behind me, but everyone said they had no impression!" Chengmei seemed to see the secret of the universe from her mother's eyes, and she hurriedly ran towards the intersection. Run to a row of snack shops.
"Please, God, you must let Cheng Yan stay quietly in the snack shop!"
There were beads of sweat on the tip of Chengmei's nose, and her arms draped over the locust tree were as slender as a child's.
Compared with the pitiful Seung-mei, Yoon Kyung-sun looks plump and lifeless. Suddenly, Yin Qingshan shook his head violently, like crazy. A high-pitched scream came from her throat. It was crying, a fierce cry that felt as if her heart was ashes.
Seeing the ferocious tears on her mother's face, Chengmei felt as if someone was pinching her neck and pressing her body. The moment she breathed, her chest expanded like a balloon, and her mind suddenly went dark. If she wasn't crazy, She shouted loudly, and her nerves were on the verge of collapse.
Zhiyu grocery store
"It does taste bitter, but it's not poison."
Mother Yin Qingshan wanted to withdraw from Cheng Miru. After looking at each other nervously, both of them swallowed subconsciously. Yin Qingshan's throat bulged sharply and majesticly. She imagined that there was a witch-like woman behind the door, tightly grasping Chengyan's collar while hiding in the shadows and constantly peeking at herself and Seungmei.
"This is called black coffee. Although it will taste more delicious after adding creamer and condensed milk, it has lost the original taste of coffee. Try it and see if it tastes bitter first and then sweet."
The clavicle at the end of Yin Qingshan's neck was also exposed. Inside the bright glass door, the unattractive woman was feeding Cheng Yan coffee in full swing. Cheng Yan tried her best to grab the woman's hand that kept extending forward. Could this be it?
"Sung Yeon!" Seung Mei shouted with wide eyes as she broke in the door.
"Sister." The moment she heard Chengmei's voice, Chengyan's thick black eyelashes suddenly moved.
Under the white sunshine, the strange shopkeeper's short hair was cut very shiny. She slowly turned her face. Her eyebrows were thick, her forehead was white and her bones were slightly protruding, and her eyes were filled with lush chickweed. flower. Not only her face, but also the veins flowing down her slender neck were clearly visible to Chengmei. If the sun was brighter or her eyes were sharper, Chengmei could only vaguely see her internal organs.
"Oh! You two are Li Chengyan's family members. I have seen photos of your family on the former shop owner's mobile phone. I think all the shop owners on our street should be familiar with your family." Ben It was Seung-mei's turn to say the words, but the new shop owner said it for her.
"That's it. I'm really sorry about that just now. By the way, my sister ate or destroyed so many things in your store, I will transfer the money to you right now."
"Actually, it's nothing. I didn't drink much coffee, so forget it."
"Then I'll pass it on to you according to my own wishes."
When Seung-mei smiled at the shop owner, Seung-yeon showed an unhappy expression. The hot sunlight shone on the faces of the three women, and Cheng Yan slowly opened her mouth and yawned.
"If you want to go out, just tell mom. How can you sneak out while adults are going to the bathroom? Do you know how long we have been looking for you?!" After walking out of the store, Chengmei directly expressed the anger in her heart. The cold barbs shot into Cheng Yan's eyes. Perhaps she understood Cheng Mei's worries, Cheng Yan lowered her head in shame.
"From now on, you can only go out with your mother, or you can wait for me to come back. Do you remember?"
The sound of quiet and crisp breathing reached Chengmei's ears. She slowly stopped and turned the sleepy-eyed Chengyan to face her.
"Don't pretend to be asleep, what am I asking you?" Chengmei shook Chengyan's shoulders violently.
"Lee Sung-yeon! Hey! Lee Sung-yeon!!!"
