I stand on the bridge and watch the scenery

Chapter 7 What You Said Doesn't Matter

Luo Zhi's job has been confirmed. He majored in interior design and set up a small studio with others. First, he will take over some self-employed people to do it. Brother Luo's dream is to let thousands of people, even real estate Developers all use his design as a model.

Shui Guang nodded after listening, and raised a point, "Partner?" Was there a partner as soon as it came up?This efficiency.

Luo Zhi said with a smile: "The last time I had dinner and drink with Brother Guo, he introduced someone he knew, and I hit it off right away! So the action is worse than the heart, and the preparations will start immediately, brother, am I good?"

Luo Zhi is really powerful, he can get along like a fish in water wherever he goes, Shui Guang firmly believes in this.

And when Brother Luo Zhi started a new chapter in his career, Shuiguang's job hadn't been settled yet, but she was in no hurry. It was not easy to find a suitable job, and she felt that her current state was not very good. Well, although she went to the resumes that were sent out before and asked her to go for interviews, she still felt that she was not in the right state.

In the afternoon, Shuiguang received a call from Ruan Jing. Ruan Jing said that she was leaving tomorrow and wanted to meet her again before leaving, because she didn't know when the next meeting would be.

"Really? Are you leaving?" Shui Guang was a little bit reluctant. She had a different friendship with Ruan Jing. Ruan Jing understood a part of herself that she didn't want others to know. She said softly, "Then go." Let me treat you to a meal before? It's a farewell for you."

Ruan Jing smiled and said, "No, someone has invited you. You just need to come here and let me meet you, my friend."

Hearing that she had an appointment with someone else, Shui Guang hesitated, "You have an appointment with someone, so is it convenient for me to go?"

"Is there any inconvenience, it's just a meal. Come on, I won't leave well if you don't come." Shui Guang agreed, and Ruan Jing gave the address and said, "Well, Shui Guang, see you at six o'clock tonight !"

In the office, Zhang Zhenglan looked at the work documents in his hands, but his mind was always wandering. He didn't recover until the falling fireworks burned his fingers. He couldn't help cursing in a low voice. I didn't have the patience to read it, so I threw it aside.He leaned back in the chair and raised his hand to press his temple. He didn't drink much last night, but it made him feel very uncomfortable all day.He couldn't help but wonder if he was prematurely aging or something, so bad?
The secretary, Xiao He, knocked on the door and came in, put a few documents on his desk, "Mr. Zhang, Brother Guo and the others are gone, let me bring these documents to you, and you can give me your instructions within a week." Recently, the boss's pressure is not right, No one dared to approach, "I'm off work too, Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Zhenglan let out a "hmm". When the secretary went out, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, Xiao He, is your family in the golden age?"

Xiao He nodded, "Yes."

He stroked the armrest with his fingers, finally got up and said, "Shall I take you back?"

The girl blinked, "You want to see me off?"

Zhang Zhenglan had already picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on, "Is there any problem?"

Xiao He smiled and said: "No, I'm just a little flattered, flattered."

Zhang Zhenglan came over, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Then let's go."

Xiao He was very happy to be able to take a good car without having to squeeze the bus home. The two went down to the parking lot. In the car, Miss He couldn't help but praise the boss's car.Zhang Zhenglan just smiled and said, "If your boyfriend doesn't mind, I can give you more in the future."

"Of course he doesn't mind, it can save two yuan." Xiao He half-jokingly said, "Boss, is this considered an employee benefit?"

Zhang Zhenglan smiled and said, "Just treat it as me doing good deeds every day."

Xiao He was speechless.

After putting Xiao He down at the gate of the community, Zhang Zhenglan finally let go of her smile, laughing at herself, doing a good deed every day?Oh, is it good or evil?He felt that he was really not good at learning, he was stupid again and again, and he was of a very low level.

The car stopped at the entrance of the community for a while, then he remembered the meal appointment with Ruan Jing, took another look at the door where someone was coming in and out, started the car and left.

Zhang Zhenglan arrived 10 minutes late, and he was brought over by the waiter, "Sorry, I'm late." He took off his coat and hung it on the back of the chair, and sat opposite Ruan Jing.

Ruan Jing smiled and said, "It's better to be late than never." Then she said, "Brother, you don't mind if I change the tea into a meal?"

"It's okay, let's have a decent meal." Zhang Zhenglan saw that there were only two of them at the four-person table, "Didn't you say you still have friends?"

"Well, she went to the bathroom."

"Oh." Zhang Zhenglan responded vaguely, and he summoned the waiter to say, "Give me a cup of Pu'er."

Ruan Jing raised her eyebrows, "I thought you would prefer coffee, brother."

Zhang Zhenglan smiled, "I haven't felt well these two days."

Ruan Jing couldn't help teasing, "I heard that successful people have stomach problems to some extent, as expected."

Zhang Zhenglan shook her head, "You're overgeneralizing, haven't you seen that all the dignitaries are graceful?"

Ruan Jing couldn't stop laughing.

When the two were chatting and laughing, Ruan Jing, who was facing the aisle, saw the person who came back, "Here we come, Shui Guang."

Hearing this name, Zhang Zhenglan stiffened his back. He gently put down his teacup and slowly raised his head. He heard Ruan Jing from the opposite side say: "Shui Guang, this is Zhang Zhenglan, Senior Brother Zhang. Last time I also talked to you."

The people who stood by the table were no less surprised when they saw him. He smiled wryly, yes, the expression was too clear. Seeing him was surprise, unwillingness, and retreat.

The scene fell silent, and Ruan Jing felt that the atmosphere was a bit unusual, but she couldn't figure out what it was for a moment. At this time, a waiter passed by, and she stopped her and said, "Waiter, let's order."

With other people present, Zhang Zhenglan didn't want to show his emotions. He suppressed his expression, originally wanted to laugh, but found it a bit difficult.He couldn't help but glance at Xiao Shuiguang again.

Shui Guang sat with her head down, avoiding meeting his eyes.If she knew that Ruan Jingyue's other person was him, she thought she would definitely not come.It was a mistake, so why meet again and again to add to the embarrassment.

Ruan Jing ordered two dishes, and then asked the other two.Zhang Zhenglan flipped through the menu in his hand. He is a veteran at eating, but he couldn't pick anything out at this time. He handed the menu to the person sitting diagonally across.

Shui Guang didn't pick it up, but said softly: "I won't pick, you guys can order."

Zhang Zhenglan's hand holding the menu tightened slightly, he returned the menu to the waiter, and casually reported a few dishes.

Ruan Jing smiled and said, "Senior brother is a regular visitor here, right?"

Zhang Zhenglan reluctantly twitched the corner of her mouth, "I've been here a few times."

Ruan Jing went to the bathroom while the food was being served, and finally there were only two people left.Shui Guang turned the cup in her hand, she didn't like being alone like this.

Zhang Zhenglan was silent for a while, and then asked in a low voice, "If you don't want to see me, I can go."

"No, there's no need..." Shui Guang thought to himself, even if he wanted to leave, it shouldn't be you.

Zhang Zhenglan was originally a smooth-faced person, but he became extremely clumsy when facing her.The girl opposite has always been neither hasty nor impatient, neither humble nor overbearing, but like the hardest rock, you will feel cold when you touch it, but if you don't touch it, you will feel heavy in your heart, in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.

When Ruan Jing came back, several dishes had already been served, she said with a smile: "The efficiency of this restaurant is not bad."

When eating, Ruan Jing saw that Shuiguang was holding chopsticks with her left hand, so she couldn't help asking curiously, "Shuiguang, are you left-handed?"

Shui Guang smiled faintly, "When I was young... I learned it from others, and it became a habit later on."

Zhang Zhenglan looked at her slender hands. He remembered the time when he asked her to read the palm. The temperature seemed to remain on his fingertips. He coughed and turned away.

"Brother, speaking of it, Shuiguang and I are both your juniors, although the relationship is a bit far away."

"Really? That's a coincidence."

Under Ruan Jing's coordination, the dinner that day ended reluctantly.

When she came out, Ruan Jing had a headache and said, "I still have a stall at the bar in front, just walk over there, brother, why don't you send Shui Guang back?" Although Ruan Jing more or less sensed the gap between the two. There were some undercurrents, but she didn't think too much at that time, she was just worried about the safety of Shuiguang.

But Xiao Shuiguang wanted to refuse, and the people around her said one step ahead of her: "Okay, then you should also pay attention to safety on the road."

Ruan Jing nodded, and then said to Shui Guang: "Xiao Shuiguang, we will meet later."

Shui Guang nodded shallowly, "Okay, there will be a period later."

After Ruan Jing left, Shui Guang originally wanted to tell Zhang Zhenglan that he would go back, but he had already lightly touched her arm and said, "Let's go, it's cold at night, don't catch a cold."

Such gentle words made Shui Guang feel a little dazed.He always said, Shuiguang, wear more clothes when it’s cold, don’t catch cold; he said, Shuiguang, don’t read too late at night, or you won’t be able to get up in the morning; he said, Shuiguang, don’t run too fast, I'm here; he said...

Shui Guang squatted down slowly, she covered her face with her hands, tears slipped between her fingers.She was crying, but there was no sound, Zhang Zhenglan was taken aback, he squatted down hesitantly, reached out to stroke her hair, reached behind her head, pulled her over and hugged her in his arms.

Her breakdown came without warning, and she calmed down when he took her to the car.

Zhang Zhenglan rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find a pack of unopened wet wipes and handed them to her. Shui Guang took it and said "thank you".

"Do you want some water?" Seeing that he had drunk the bottle of water on the car, Zhang Zhenglan said, "I'm going to buy some water, wait a minute."

"No, thank you." Shui Guang's voice was hoarse, "Thank you."

After returning to the original track, Zhang Zhenglan rubbed his face, "I... shall I take you back?"

"Thank you."

Zhang Zhenglan thought to herself, what I want is not a thank you, never was.

The car moved forward without a word.Shuiguang got off the car at the gate of the community, and when she turned around to say goodbye, the other party asked softly: "Xiao Shuiguang, did that night really mean nothing to you?"

Xiao Shuiguang stood in the dark, with the wind blowing through her hair, those words floated by her ears, like whispers.Her hands hung down to her sides and slightly grasped the corners of her clothes.She didn't want to know why he pursued that night, but she just wanted to turn the page and never bring it up again.

So she said, "It's nothing."

When Shui Guang returned home that night, Luo Zhi just came out of the bathroom. When he saw her, he couldn't help asking: "What's wrong? She looks in a daze, have you eaten yet?"

"Eat, I'm a little tired, I'm going to bed first." Shui Guang entered the room, she walked to the bed and sat down, looking at the night outside the window, that person, let it be, no matter what happened in the past, from now on, Everything in the past is like dying yesterday, not to mention, there is nothing between them.

Shuiguang slept very unsteadily that night, and had a dream, which was hazy and unreal. She only remembered that she had been walking on a road, with no end in sight, and no way to go back.

Zhang Zhenglan went to the company at noon the next day, and when he walked into the office, his face was extremely ugly and he coughed non-stop.Seeing this, Xiao He immediately got up to make tea, wondering in her heart that when the boss sent her home yesterday, she was fine, why did she look terminally ill in just one night?
At this time, Da Guo and the others were also whispering, "It's not right, I've never seen the boss in this state."

"Could it be that our company has encountered some crisis?"

"I can't finish the things at hand, and if there is a crisis, it is also a crisis of dying early with a lot of money."

A hacker suggested: "How about I check the boss's personal computer, maybe I can find some clues?"

Ruan Qi scolded "nervous", "You can solve his firewall, and I will give this year's bonus with both hands. Don't steal chickens and lose money, and affect all of us on weekends."

At this time, Xiao He, who had delivered tea from the boss's office, announced with a bitter face: "The boss said to work overtime tonight."

All of a sudden, there were wailing voices one after another, calling Ruan Qi "a ​​crow's mouth".

Zhang Zhenglan sat in the office, smoking cigarettes one by one, but the more he smoked, the more he coughed and the more uncomfortable he became, but it was even more uncomfortable if he didn't smoke.

When the intercom phone rang, he stretched out his hand with a cigarette in his hand and pressed the hands-free button. Secretary Xiao He said, "Boss, Mr. Zhou is here."

Zhang Zhenglan extinguished the cigarette, rubbed his face, "please come in." He got up and went to the window and opened it to let the wind blow away the smell of smoke in the room.

The person who came pushed open the door, and knocked on the door with two fingers bent, "Mr. Zhang, are you free to meet my old classmate?"

Zhang Zhenglan hooked the corner of his mouth, and stretched out his hand to signal him, "Sit."

Zhou Jianming walked to the leather chair in front of the desk with a smile and sat down. When he saw the cigarette butts in the ashtray on the table, he couldn't help shaking his head, "Smoking like this, aren't you afraid of getting lung cancer?"

Zhang Zhenglan had already dialed the internal line to ask his secretary to bring in two cups of coffee, before he said, "If you can't quit, just smoke. What's the matter, why don't you come here?"

The other party smiled and said: "Your ex-girlfriend has returned to China, and she asked me to invite you to dinner. I called you last night, and you hung up after saying 'hmm' twice. I'm afraid you didn't hear clearly, so I just Make another trip in person, in case I don’t have an appointment with you, who will make fun of me.”

Zhang Zhenglan paused, "Who?"

Zhou Jianming was speechless: "Zhang Zhenglan, you are not afraid of being struck by lightning when you say this! People have missed you for more than two years, and the first thing they did when they returned to China was asking me about your movements. When they heard that you didn't have a girlfriend, they asked me to invite you out for dinner." , its heart is self-evident."

Zhang Zhenglan felt that he was really... out of his mind, so he pressed the center of his eyebrows, "Don't talk nonsense, Jiang Yuru is back? Why didn't she call me?"

"My girl is embarrassed to play a straight ball. Seriously, why did you suddenly break up when you were so good back then? Yu Ru said that she was at fault first, but I don't think so. When Jiang Yuru left, she burst into tears at the airport, and you After smoking a cigarette, I turned around and said 'Bon voyage', it's over, everyone thinks you failed her."

After Xiao He came in to deliver coffee, Zhang Zhenglan picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, the tea tasted so bitter in his mouth before, "Yu Ru is back, let's have a meal together, I'll be the host. "

"Okay." Zhou Jianming smiled, "I'm just waiting for your words." After finishing speaking, he took a sip of coffee and praised Mr. Zhang's products here.

After Zhou Jianming left, Zhang Zhenglan leaned over and took out the cold medicine from the drawer, passed through the water, forgot about all the miscellaneous things, and started to work.

But speaking of the relationship between Jiang Yuru and him, like Zhou Jianming, they are both classmates in the master's class of the university. As for the later exchanges between the two, it was mainly at a few dinner parties after graduation. The two parties had no intentions when they were in school. "I hit it off", the two have very similar personalities, they can chat well, their family backgrounds, education levels are similar, and they have similar interests. They naturally got together and considered marriage at one point. The old people are also urging, so I feel that the marriage is not bad, but in the end it ended with Jiang Yuru going abroad.

Zhang Zhenglan just said, "Okay, have a good trip."

Jiang Yuru said: "Zhang Zhenglan, Zhang Zhenglan, at first I suspected that you were with me because I met your parents' requirements, but now I understand, it turns out that's true!"

Zhang Zhenglan said with a smile: "I can't help it if I can't bear it. If you want to find your first love, I can't stop it and destroy a truly happy relationship."

Jiang Yuru didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I really don't know who will catch you, a prodigal son, in the future."

Zhang Zhenglan also felt that his work efficiency was not high that day, so he simply explained the matter in the afternoon and went to the hospital to get a bottle of IV.When he arrived at the hotel at night as promised, he was hugged from behind as soon as he got out of the car, "Honey, I miss you, I miss you every day, every night, I'm going crazy."

Zhang Zhenglan raised her eyebrows slightly, turned around and saw Jiang Yuru's smiling face, and said, "Yuru, are you fat?"

Jiang Yuru was taken aback, and hit him with a clenched fist, "How did you talk?"

Zhou Jianming laughed loudly from behind, "Mr. Zhang, don't you know that women can't say three things? Age, weight, and knowledge."

Jiang Yuru said: "Why are you still educated? My girl's knowledge is no worse than yours."

"All right, you are a talented woman, a beauty, a young and beautiful girl!" The three of them entered the restaurant as they spoke. In addition to Zhang Zhenglan, Zhou Jianming, and Jiang Yuru for dinner that day, a few old classmates also came over later, all of whom knew each other well. Yes, so eat casually.

During the period, someone came over to drink with Zhang Zhenglan, "Zhenglan, why are you drinking tea? Come, let's have a toast!"

Zhang Zhenglan waved her hand, "I can't drink it. Didn't you see that my throat is hoarse?"

Zhou Jianming smiled and said, "I found out earlier, Zheng Lan, are you sick from overwork or hurt by love?"

Zhang Zhenglan said lazily, "You can talk so much when you catch a cold."

Zhou Jianming chuckled, "That's what everyone says. Of course, if it's you Zhang Zhenglan, it's impossible to be sick from overwork, let alone hurt by love."

Someone echoed and said, "That's right, Zheng Lan is the trump card of our academy, his talent is invincible, and as for being suave and suave, that's not to mention!"

Jiang Yuru shook his head, "I said you, flattery, are you disgusting?"

A gay man immediately replied: "Not disgusting, Zheng Lan, is there any shortage of people in your company, I just resigned recently, why don't you take me in, boss?"

Zhang Zhenglan shrugged, "Okay."

When everyone was booing, Zhang Zhenglan looked down at the mobile phone under the table, Jiang Yuru leaned over and said, "I see you have checked your mobile phone several times, who are you secretly looking at?"

Zhang Zhenglan put the phone back into his pocket with a smile, and said, "It's just to check the time."

Jiang Yuru stared at him for a while, and said, "Zheng Lan, I think you've changed."

Zhang Zhenglan leaned on the back of the chair relaxedly, "Oh? What's changed? Let's hear it."

Jiang Yuru shook his head, "I can't say it, but it feels... changed a bit."

Seeing them chatting, the people next to them couldn't help teasing: "What are the two old lovers talking about? Are you planning to rebuild the old one?"

Jiang Yuru said: "Zhang Zhenglan, I have experienced it before. This period is too high and I can't control it. We have self-knowledge."

Zhou Jianming also said: "It's true that Zheng Lan's girlfriends change frequently, as we all know."

When the people around were laughing, Zhang Zhenglan smiled helplessly, "It's fine, don't slander my reputation."

It was past eight o'clock after a meal, and when Zhang Zhenglan left the restaurant, Zhou Jianming and the others wanted to sing K, but he shied away, "I'll forget about it today, I'm dizzy, go ahead, and bring me the bill later. Just pay it off."

Everyone was not very interested in seeing him, and his face was really bad, so they didn't force them. They thanked Boss Zhang for paying the bill, and waved goodbye to him. Jiang Yuru said when he left, "Zheng Lan, let's make another date."

Zhang Zhenglan patted her arm, "OK."

Zhang Zhenglan got into the car and stayed in the car for a long time before starting the car.

Xiao Shuiguang took a shower and washed his clothes. Luo Zhi hadn't come back yet. Shuiguang went to the kitchen to wrap the cold food in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator, then tied up the garbage, went to the room and took his coat and put it on, planning to go out throw rubbish.As soon as she opened the door and went out, she felt a person sitting against the wall in the dim aisle in front of her. The water light was startled, she took a step back, and saw the person clearly through the dim light in the aisle.

And the other party stood up slowly, just took a step and was close to her.A few strands of hair hung down on his forehead, his brows were furrowed, and his face looked a little tired.

Shuiguang didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he froze on the spot, Zhang Zhenglan stretched out his hands, gently grabbed her sleeves with both hands, slowly leaned his head on her shoulder, and said, "Xiao Shuiguang, what you say doesn't count. "

When Luo Zhi came back, he met the person walking down the stairs head-to-head, and couldn't help being taken aback, "Boss Zhang?"

Zhang Zhenglan nodded, passed by him, and went straight downstairs.

Luo Zhi glanced back again, thinking, why is the boss of Guoge Company here?As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help but said: "I actually saw Brother Guo and his company's boss in our building just now."

Xiao Shuiguang, who was standing at the table pouring water, stopped moving her hands. She gave a vague "hmm" before turning around and saying, "I prepared your dinner and put it in the refrigerator. If you haven't eaten it, take it out and heat it up." You can eat it in one go."

Luo Zhi said that he had already eaten, so he went to Shuiguang and poured a glass of water and took a big sip, "I'm so exhausted, I have to do everything myself at the beginning of work, like a war." Speaking of which, Luo Zhi asked with a smile, "Shuiguang, why don't you just go to my place to help? You see, I am also short of manpower, and you have to find a job. Why don't you follow my brother and get some meat?"

Shuiguang shook his head, "I didn't study design, I can't do your job."

"How many people are doing professional work these days? Besides, your major is computer, and the design mainly starts from the software aspect. I definitely believe that it will be easy to master it with your ingenuity."

Shui Guang remained unmoved, and still refused: "No, I'll find it myself."

Luo Zhi was depressed. Does his elder brother have no prestige or charisma or something?In the end, he could only sigh: "That's okay, if you have any difficulties, you are always welcome to join me in my brother's arms."

After the two finished talking, Luo Zhi went into the bathroom to take a shower.

Shui Guang sat at the dining table, looking at her fingertips, she didn't understand, what exactly was that man's intention?
He seems to be famous and powerful, and he is young and ambitious, so he should have everything, so why bother with her?In the end, he told her that it was a dewy relationship, and it was time to break up at dawn, but with today's development... Shui Guang knew that it might not be easy to end.
