Volume 4 Chapter 18 Empty
Night time.
The lights were still on in the Sunshine Magazine office.
Huang Jie is bending his head to finish the manuscript.
The manuscript was revised again and again, and she tried her best to arrange every word as best as possible.
This is a habit she has developed over the years. She believes that no matter how good a person's writing is, he will inevitably make some mistakes, so she would rather spend more time reviewing the manuscript carefully. This is not only a responsibility to the readers, but also a responsibility to yourself. Unlike some colleagues who blindly pursue efficiency and finalize and publish the manuscript early, some of the articles do not make sense and, more exaggeratedly, there are many typos, which have triggered condemnation from many readers. In fact, it is the same in all walks of life. Only if you do it seriously and responsibly can you win reputation and win the market. There is no trickery.
Colleague Liu Yan walked up to Huang Jie and said, "Sister, aren't you leaving yet?"
Huang Jie patted his chest, pretended to be angry, and said, "Bad guy, you scared me."
Liu Yan advised: "Go home, you see everyone else has left."
Huang Jie looked around and realized that it was already past the time to get off work.
She took a breath and said, "I want a while." In a blink of an eye, she saw a new bag in her hand, and she saw the brand on it. Bags of that brand are sold at very high prices in the market, and she said : "Have you changed your bag?"
Liu Yan said: "Well, he gave it to me."
Huang Jie didn't react and asked: "Who?"
Liu Yan did not answer immediately, bit her lip and said softly: "Sister, I want to tell you something."
Huang Jie stopped what he was doing and looked at her.
Liu Yan is several years younger than Huang Jie, and they have worked together for many years and are considered very good friends. She is outgoing, cheerful and unrestrained, and often goes crazy in nightclubs. Although she looks relatively ordinary, she knows how to dress up well and can attract the attention of many members of the opposite sex no matter what the occasion.
She didn't know what happened today, she hesitated, and Huang Jie was very surprised.
Liu Yan was silent for a while and then said: "That's it...it's your classmate Zhao Bing."
Huang Jie asked: "What's wrong?"
Zhao Bing is Huang Jie's college classmate. He has been pursuing her for the past few years, but she has no such intention for him. I heard he's doing pretty well now.
Huang Jie had a thought and asked, "Did he give me the bag?"
Liu Yan seemed to have made a lot of determination and said, "Well, sister, I...I am with Zhao Bing."
Huang Jie was very surprised when he heard this.
How long has it been!
She remembered the class reunion, and she didn't know what happened, so she took her colleague Liu Yan with her. Only then did she know that, except for her and Zhao Bing, the other classmates who were married or not had families were basically in love. Several good sisters were bent on bringing them together, and they really tried all kinds of ways at the party, but Huang Jie couldn't get enough of it, and they broke up in the end. Now I didn't expect that Liu Yan would actually come together with him. It is said that a woman’s heart is hard to fathom, but isn’t it the same for men?
Liu Yan's eyes were a little dodged and she said softly: "Sister, do you blame me?"
Huang Jie said: "Fool, I will only be happy for you. Is he good to you?"
Liu Yan said: "We have recently been planning when to get married. The parents of both parties have met. My mother is full of praise for him, and his parents are also very good to me."
Huang Jie was a little numb to the speed of their progress. He nodded instinctively and said, "That's good."
Liu Yan suddenly hugged Huang Jie and said, "Sister, thank you."
Huang Jie pushed her away gently and said, "Go quickly, he should be coming to pick you up, right?"
Liu Yan panicked all of a sudden and said, "Oh, yes, I almost forgot. He is coming soon. I have to leave first. Sister, you should go home early."
Huang Jie smiled and scolded: "Look at you - leave quickly, bye."
Liu Yan said: "Sister, bye."
Huang Jie looked at her leaving figure, shook her head and continued her work.
At this time, some of the colleagues may have finished taking a shower and are lying comfortably on the sofa, or some may be dancing with their partners to the crazy music... These are all luxury things for Huang Jie. Work is the only thing that matters. It is her only sustenance.
I don't know how long it took, but Huang Jie finally finished what he was doing.
She broke free from all her thoughts and stretched comfortably.
At this time, she suddenly heard some strange sounds.
The voice came from the office of President Jin Daeguang.
Only then did she notice a glimmer of light coming from the president's office.
Is there a thief?
Huang Jie's first reaction was to hold the scissors on the table tightly in her hands, take a deep breath, and tiptoe towards the dimly lit door.
The closer he got, the louder the sound became, and it seemed that it was not a person's voice. There seemed to be a woman's moaning, mixed with a man's breathing.
Huang Jie gently pushed the door open and looked inside. The scene inside made her stunned and frozen.
The scene in the huge office was messy, and two people were entangled in each other.
She almost cried out in surprise. She could no longer hold the scissors in her hand and fell to the ground with a crisp "ding" sound, which was particularly harsh in the silent night. She didn't care to pick it up and left this sinful door as if she was running away.
When Huang Jie returned to her seat, she felt her face was hot and her heart was pounding.
She drank up the cold water in the cup in one breath, and then walked to the water dispenser. She was so dazed that she didn't even notice that the water had overflowed from the cup.
She didn't know how long it took, but she felt someone approaching from behind and turned back hurriedly.
Jin Daguang smiled evilly and said, "Xiao Huang, the water is flowing out!"
Huang Jie didn't think about the implication of Jin Daguang's words at all. He hurriedly walked forward and turned off the drinking water switch, picked up the cup and returned.
Jin Daguang said: "Xiao Huang, you haven't gotten off work yet!"
At this time, Huang Jie's face was still flushed, and the bulging area in her chest was swaying with her rapid heartbeat. Anyone who saw it would be fascinated.
Jin Daguang's throat grumbled.
"President, I'm leaving, goodbye."
Huang Jie casually put the cup on the table. She couldn't stay any longer, so she turned around and left.
Looking at that graceful figure, Jin Daguang's eyes fell on Huang Jie's leaving back, and the high-pitched buttocks slowly disappeared from his sight. At this time, a dazzling figure suddenly appeared in his sight. Seeing the crystal clear body, Jin Daguang felt a wave of heat rush out of his body, and his whole body collapsed on the ground.
The night was suddenly eerily quiet.
The bathroom was filled with warm mist.
Looking at her flawless body in the mirror, Huang Jie seemed to be crazy.
There was a little blush on her delicate face.
Thinking back to the scene in the office today, her heart was still pounding. She unconsciously put her hands on her chest and rubbed it gently. She suddenly felt itchy all over her body and her whole body was floating. She moved her hands all the way down along her smooth skin, and then...she suddenly
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Ran shuddered, his legs were clamped tightly, and his heart seemed to explode.
She forbade herself to think any more and hurriedly took a bath towel to dry the water on her body.
After taking a hot bath, Huang Jie felt much more relaxed.
At this time, Huang's mother brought a bowl of hot noodles and placed it on the table. Huang's father had also turned on the TV. While making tea, he took stock of the major and minor events at home and abroad that happened today.
Whenever this time is the time when mother and daughter can say something most appropriate.
When Huang Jie finished the last bite of noodles, Huang's mother said, "Jie'er, have you been busy recently?"
Huang Jie said: "It's okay."
Huang's mother said: "Seeing that you are so late every day, don't be too busy."
Huang Jie said: "Mom, don't worry, my daughter knows."
Huang's mother said: "Jie'er, there are some things you have to fight for yourself. Pies in the sky will not fall into your lap."
Huang Jie hurriedly said: "Mom, you are here again."
She knew what her mother meant, so she quickly stood up and stood behind her. A pair of delicate hands began to rub her shoulders, acting coquettishly from time to time.
"You kid."
Under the massage of her slender hands, her whole body felt comfortable. At this time, Huang Mu's heart softened.
Watching their daughter grow up day by day, but her life-long events have not yet been settled, the stone in the hearts of the two elders is getting heavier and heavier, but they can't even do anything about this well-behaved and willful baby girl.
Mother Huang said casually: "I wonder how your Aunt Zhenzhen is doing?"
Huang Jie said: "Mom, please relax, Aunt Long is in good health!"
Huang's mother said: "Oh, more than twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone is busy with their own affairs. It is not easy to meet each other."
Huang Jie said: "Mom, do you want to meet Aunt Long? I will make an appointment for you."
Huang's mother quickly refused and said, "No, she started such a big business by herself. If your mother goes to see her now, others will gossip."
Huang Jie coquettishly said: "Mom——"
Huang's mother said: "By the way, Jie'er, your Aunt Long called some time ago to inquire about your situation. From what she said, she seemed to want you to come over and help. What do you think?"
In the past, Huang Jie wouldn't have hesitated at all. After all, working in a magazine was what she wanted to do. But what happened in the office today, and when she recalled Jin Daguang's wretched face, she felt frightened.
Seeing that she was silent, Huang's mother asked again: "Why don't you speak?"
Huang Jie said, "Mom, let's talk about this later. It's late at night. You can go and have some rest. Good night, Mom." She shouted toward the living room, "Good night, Dad." Then she returned to her room.
Lying on the bed, Huang Jie stretched out comfortably and began to recall what happened in the past few days and the people he met.
Thinking of Xiaowen's childish face, she couldn't help but smile. Thinking about the plants and trees in the snails again, it is really nostalgic. Unknowingly, she thought of the scene in the office today. At this age, this was the first time she encountered such a scene... She shook her head and forbade herself to think about it anymore, but at this time, her loneliness felt like a pair of Invisible hands strangled her, suffocating her. Looking at other people, the children of her classmates who are younger than her are already in kindergarten, but what about her? Every time she attends a friend's wedding, she becomes more worried.
Women, especially those who have reached a certain age, will only truly feel the horror of emptiness and loneliness when it is late at night.
My prince charming, where are you? As he thought about it, Huang Jie's eyelids gradually became heavy, and he fell asleep soon.
