Ode to joy

Chapter 198

Sleep is the best cosmetic for beauty.Fan Shengmei, who had slept through the night, was in high spirits even if she got up early.

The first thing she did when she opened the door was to turn right and knock on Andy's door.Unexpectedly, it was Qu Xiaoxiao who opened the door.Fan Shengmei couldn't help taking three steps back, turning her head to see where she was in the geographical position, she was right, and then looked at Qu Xiaoxiao in surprise.But Qu Xiaoxiao had long since disappeared, leaving an open door for her to enter by herself.Because Qu Xiaoxiao saw that it was Fan Shengmei, she knew that she was definitely not looking for her.Even though Qu Xiaoxiao didn't say hello, Fan Shengmei still breathed a sigh of relief.

Andy's voice came from the elevator entrance in the corridor, "Hey, Xiaofan, are you looking for me?"

"Ah, have you come back from exercising so early? Thank you so much for standing up and helping me get out last night."

"Sure, I can't help you with anything else."

"Let's be more troublesome. I want to ask how happened last night. I am very worried. I couldn't hold on last night and went to bed early. I am really tired these days."

"Maybe Xiaoqiu was very disappointed last night, nothing happened. Xiaoguan originally wanted Xiaoxie to ask a group of friends to help get Ying Qin out, but Xiaoqu and I didn't cooperate. She couldn't do anything, and Xiaoguan couldn't do anything. Very disappointed. Sit in the room, let's go to 302 for breakfast later, the nanny that Baozi hired for me lives there."

"Hey, thank you, Mr. Bao is really considerate. I won't sit down. I'll stand up and say a few words. I go to work early, so I don't have the fate to sit down and have breakfast. Xiaoqiu has always been a stickler for doing things, especially when he is overwhelmed by love. Sometimes, it's even more unreasonable, please forgive me. If you have time, just take care of her nonsense. If you don't have time, don't force yourself to deal with her. You can't help her at all. Don't worry about her messy things. "

Andy laughed as he listened, it wasn't just Xiaoqiu, she was also dizzy when she saw Baozi.

"Yes, I got it. I won't wrong myself, and I won't make things difficult for Xiao Qiu. You are really the eldest sister of 2202."

"Hehe, that's not true, the next turning point is coming. Wang Baichuan has an important client coming tonight, and he wants me to attend the dinner together. I can't go to Xiaoqiu's place tonight, so let me tell you."

"Okay, have fun. I'll tell the nurse to add some money and let the nurse work all day. I told you that you can't work during the day and accompany you at night. How can you bear it?"

"It's only temporary. The nurse you hired must be more professional than us. It's just that Xiaoqiu is injured and needs spiritual support. She will feel better with us around."

Qu Xiaoxiao listened and rolled her eyes from afar.Fan Shengmei, who had been vigilant all the time, still saw it, and hurriedly excused herself to go to work, and left.

As soon as the door was closed, Qu Xiaoxiao immediately said: "The more you can't manage your own affairs, the more you like to meddle in other people's affairs. What a quirk. Wear whatever hat you have, don't pretend to be a big-headed ghost."

"Don't be mean. The night before yesterday, Ying Qin's mother told Xiao Guan alone about Xiao Qiu and Ying Qin. Xiao Guan was very sad and wanted to tell Xiao Fan. Do you know what Xiao Fan said? Xiao Fan said, don't tell me today, I will It’s been a long time since I’ve been happy, let me be happy and tell me after three days. That’s probably what it means. I was very sad to hear it. But you found out, she has begun to learn to reject others: don’t get involved last night, don’t go to accompany tonight , don't listen to Ying Qin's mother's cruel words. And her brother is making trouble again, so she put it aside lightly. It's a good sign, we need to encourage it. "

"It seems that she wants to be the eldest sister of 2202, and you want to be the eldest sister of the 22nd floor. Damn, it's a monster."

Andy can only take a look at Bai Qu Xiaoxiao and ignore it.But she felt that something was wrong, and when she looked back, she saw Qu Xiaoxiao rolling her eyes with evil intentions on her face. "What the hell are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking about what she has to be happy about. I think she's eating Coptis chinensis even in her dreams."

It wasn't until breakfast in 302 that Qu Xiaoxiao threw her chopsticks and thought, "Yes, Wang Baichuan got a bank loan and has money to buy a house. Yes, it must be this matter. It is very likely that Wang Baichuan proposed marriage. No wonder , Huh, but I still have eyes open when I see Qianqian, and I won't misjudge people."

"house?"

"Yes, the house. Don't think you can easily fix the house. Sister Fan herself can't afford a bathroom in her life. So she was so upset about her brother's tormenting her father that she wanted to commit suicide last week, and now she is so happy that she can't even dream Laughed out loud. She finally got a little rich man."

"I'm very suspicious. You are obviously very enthusiastic, but you pretend to be very evil. Are you trying to attract others' attention?"

"You are the one who is enthusiastic, and your whole family is enthusiastic. Are you going or Mr. Bao during the Qingming holiday? Oh, Qingming, of course you will go."

"Why should I go? His mother is not happy to see me. He said that he will practice something in those days or something, so I will not be angry with his mother."

"Haha, you have self-knowledge. Yes. Yes, don't be hypocritical. A bad relationship is not good."

Andy laughed.Talking to Qu Xiaoxiao is straightforward and happy, unlike with Fan Shengmei, who always has to worry about this and that.Although she knew that Fan Shengmei had no bad intentions, she was always tired.

"I have Xiaoqiu's father's phone number. Do you want to call him over? I don't worry about that idiot Xiaoqiu. We can't take care of him when he gets out of bed in two days."

"You mean she will sneak out to see Ying Qin?"

"Yeah. Don't let the woman's family over there beat her to death. She can do it, you silly girl."

Andy frowned, this is indeed a big problem. "Forget it, I'll spend some more money and hire an extra caregiver. Don't call her dad. Her family is so poor, and her dad will know how much I spent as soon as he comes, so he has to sell blood and kidneys to pay me back immediately. Or Let Xiaoqiu pay it back slowly in the future, and forget it if he can't pay it back."

"Money, sister, it's not easy to make money, understand? You have to spend it clearly, even if you do charity, you have to thank someone else. Now she hates you."

"Do you think it's such a comfortable thing to be thanked by Xiaoqiu? After you helped Xiaofan, you refused to make it public. Now that Xiaofan sees me kissing very much, I feel guilty for pretending to be grateful."

"Haha...what did you tell Old Zhao?"

"To be honest, your recent performance. You know I'm not lying."

"What?" Qu Xiaoxiao's eyes widened and she became vigilant like a cat, "I'm cute...or I'm proud..."

"You can do whatever you want, including being in a bad mood."

"How could you tell him that! Hey, Andy, I'm trying to pretend..."

"Calm down, Dr. Zhao was dumbfounded when he heard it, and immediately obeyed me."

"Well?!"

"Look, you're mentally handicapped. Don't blame Xiaoqiu from now on. No matter how smart you are, you're still a fool when it comes to love. As a human being, just do what you are, pretend..."

"Pretending to be struck by lightning."

"Correct."

Qu Xiaoxiao remained silent, her eyes didn't move around, she stared straight at a vase on the table, poked the bottom of the bowl with a spoon in her hand, the sound was so harsh that Andy fled, but she didn't feel anything, Sitting alone, thinking wildly.

Guan Juer fights to get off work at normal time.But the so-called normal time, it still took nearly an hour to go out.Although she didn't sleep well last night and she was very tired due to the heavy workload today, but when she thought of Xie Bin waiting for her, and then she could take Xie Bin's car to Xiaoqiu's place later, she didn't feel tired at all.

Seeing Guan Juer from a distance, Xie Bin got out of the car and insisted on going around to open the door for Guan Juer.He leaned on the door frame to watch Guan Juer sit in, and said with concern, "The circles under your eyes are dark. After working so hard, can you ask your neighbor to replace you for one night?"

"Andy hired another nurse, and now two nurses are taking care of Xiaoqiu at the same time. Normally, I don't have to go, alas..." She saw Xie Bin, who had just sat down, handing over a small box, "What? Ah , Qingming dumpling, I was thinking about it. Great."

Seeing that Guan Juer liked it very much, Xie Bin jumped up and accidentally hit his head on the roof of the car with a loud bang.Both of them laughed.

"That's right, Xiaoqiu is alone, let's go to accompany her and sit for a while. Come out, let's eat bullfrog with pickled peppers? Recently, our brothers must order it every meal."

"Oh, I want to stay with her until she falls asleep. Among the few of us, Xiaoqu is something she never counts on; Sister Fan can't take care of her own affairs, but she still tries to take care of Xiaoqiu's affairs; Andy takes care of Xiaoqiu's affairs. All the medical expenses and the treatment environment are arranged very well. It is said that everyone is good enough, but no one is willing to help her snatch Ying Qin out, which has become Xiaoqiu's heart disease. I am afraid that Xiaoqiu will be alone. It's crazy to think about it, especially I don't want her to confront Andy and hurt Andy, a pregnant woman with abnormal hormones. Only I have tried my best to do more, and I have troubled you so much."

"As long as it can help you, don't bother me. Besides, I didn't do anything. In fact, what I want to say is that as long as you need it, I am willing to go through fire and water. Is it too nasty? I have been thinking about this sentence for several days, and I have never said Dare to say it. Doesn’t sound gross now, does it, does it? You cheer me up.”

"It seems...it seems...not nasty."

"Oh yeah! Can I go up with you later? One more person is more lively."

"It's better not to provoke her."

"Okay, I know that's what you said. Then I'll go back to the office and read the report. Reports over the years, a lot of experience, a lot of ideas."

"I really admire you. You can find out what you want to do. I am stuck in the pile of trivial things and can't get out. What's going on? I don't know when I can finish it. Outsiders watch us go in and out of the high-end office area, It seems that we are engaged in a very glamorous job, but we are no different from the workers on the assembly line, we all do it repeatedly. This one is not finished, the next one has been pressed up, and there is no end. Sometimes I feel a little desperate. Wasting life uselessly?"

"You are obviously very tired today, and you are discouraged about everything. Let's sit down and talk about it calmly tomorrow. You should eat the dumpling while it's hot, and you won't have time to eat it when you get to the hospital."

Guan Ju'er couldn't help laughing in the dark, it's really nice to talk to someone willfully after get off work.

"Hey, your shirt is new, right? You just drive, and I'll cut the thread for you."

"Hey, don't, wait until I stop to cut, or there will be no car accident, sure."

Guan Juer couldn't help laughing out loud, thinking about it, but his face was getting hotter and hotter, and he quickly covered his mouth.The two blushed in silence for a while.

Even though Guan Juer laughed all the way, he couldn't keep his smile off, but when he got to the ward and saw the two anxious nurses, he was still like thunder: Qiu Yingying was gone.Guan Juer's first reaction was to immediately call Xie Bin and ask him to turn back to help.Then send text messages to everyone on the 22nd floor.

The nurses were just negligent, and it was their turn to go to the cafeteria, and the other went to the public restroom to wash dishes after eating. After a short while, Qiu Yingying disappeared.Guan Ju'er was really angry and anxious, and he was so anxious that he turned around in circles.Calling Qiu Yingying's cell phone, of course, couldn't get through.

After Fan Shengmei got off work, she waited for a while before waiting for Wang Baichuan's car, and the two went straight to the restaurant.Wang Baichuan introduced the people attending tonight to Fan Shengmei along the way. Speaking of the guest of honor, "Tonight there are a total of twenty people sitting at one table. We all go for Mr. Li. Mr. Li has a big air and doesn't care about people. , State-owned enterprises, only people begged him, and I would have my nostrils turned upside down. Just treat it like a play. In fact, this kind of banquet is very boring. If you want to get bored, go out for a walk alone, it doesn’t matter. Now it’s too late to retreat. "

"Don't talk to me, I'm just looking for an excuse to get some air. Cleaning up Xiaoqiu's mess every day is the most suffocating thing. It's completely useless. This kind of good thing that has food and can keep an eye on you, how can I back down. Anyway, I can’t go back to the 22nd floor early tonight.”

"Hehe, I guess, you also want to spend more time with me? You said you would come, I don't know how happy I am."

"Cut, who wants to be with you, is it rare? Why is it getting more and more biased?"

"What kind of noble clubhouse requires a large courtyard and a large parking lot, so it can only be found in remote places. Find out the way today, and next time we will come by ourselves."

Fan Shengmei smiled, took out her makeup bag, pulled down the makeup mirror, and carefully handled her makeup.

This kind of banquet with a table of twenty or so businessmen is like a fight for wine.Even Fan Shengmei, who sat far away from Wang Baichuan, was shot several times and drank several glasses of white wine, but she secretly spit it into the napkin.Mr. Li was even more bold and unrestrained, with an astonishingly good capacity for alcohol. He toasted to people one by one, as if he was drinking plain water.

But Fan Shengmei gradually saw something was wrong.That General Secretary Li who was standing behind President Li like a sycophant pouring wine graciously had tricks in his hands.This bottle was used when pouring wine for others, but it was replaced by that bottle when pouring wine for Mr. Li.Fan Shengmei observed carefully for a long time, suspecting that Mr. Li was drinking plain water.Just as Fan Shengmei wanted to remind Wang Baichuan, President Li made a toast to Baijiu with a wine glass in front of Wang Baichuan.The waiter hurriedly filled the wine glass in front of Wang Baichuan with white wine.That's the real 48° liquor, and half a person's life will be killed if the glass is full.

Fan Shengmei was impatient, thinking of Wang Baichuan's stomach and the pain every time he was drunk, she quickly reminded, "Mr. Wang, Mr. Li drank so much, now let Mr. Li drink so much toast to you, how can you bear it?" , why don't you drink Mr. Li's portion together."

As soon as the words were finished, President Li grabbed the wine glass, passed over Fan Shengmei's head, almost brushed the top of Fan Shengmei's head, and fell to the carved wall behind Fan Shengmei. "What's this lady's last name? What do you mean, suspecting my wine quality? I've traveled all over my life, and no one has ever spoken to me like this. What do you mean, what do you mean?"

Fan Shengmei was stunned. She thought that what she said was tactful enough to save everyone's face. After all, she had seen such a big scene.Unexpectedly, Mr. Li is so narrow-minded, the villain will sue first.She looked at Wang Baichuan, but Wang Baichuan lowered his head, not daring to speak.She wanted to smooth things over and explain the misunderstanding, but for some reason, she opened her lips, but with a "huh", tears burst out uncontrollably.She was stunned again, covered her mouth, turned and left.

Fan Shengmei walked neither fast nor slow, but when she reached the hall, tears streaming down her face, Wang Baichuan hadn't chased her out yet.She was even more resentful.She looked at the direction she was coming with tears in her eyes, waited for a while, and took out her mobile phone to call Andy. "Andy, are you free? I'm eating in a remote place, yes, something happened, please... Thank you, thank you so much."

Andy said to pick her up immediately.Fan Shengmei sat on the side, bit her lip and continued to cry.In his heart, he repeated the scene just now over and over again, the arrogant Mr. Li, and Wang Baichuan who seemed to have a blank expression.

When Andy called to inform her that she had arrived at the door, Fan Shengmei had stopped crying.She sat down with her head down, slowly cleared her face, not looking anywhere.She is engaged in the service industry. When a young female customer appeared in the lobby crying, there were gossips behind the counter, all eyes were there, out of sight and out of mind.She also didn't want to see people coming and going, but none of them was what she was waiting for.

She grabbed her bag and walked out of the hotel, and saw Andy's car at a glance. Through the car window, she saw Andy lowered his head and concentrated on reading an e-book.Fan Shengmei was taken aback, opened the car door and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Andy, I wasted your time very, very much. It's too remote here, I can't even get a taxi, and I won't come when I ask for a taxi. I have no choice but to ask you for help."

"It's really not a little bit biased. I asked three taxi drivers in a row, and finally I asked one. He brought me here. Anyway, you can show the way when you go back."

"Oh, look, I was so anxious that I forgot about your road blindness." Fan Shengmei said as she consciously dug out her wallet, took out a hundred yuan and put it on the dashboard.

Andy squinted, "50 yuan is enough. Just now I received a text message from Xiao Guan on the way. I think since she has already gone with Xiao Xie, I will just join in the fun. What about you?"

"I can't take care of myself today. What book to read? You really count on every second."

"I'll learn more about customs like Qingming Festival and Double Ninth Festival. Can Xiaoqiu stand up and walk? He's recovering pretty quickly."

"I don't think she can, but she is not squeamish and has spiritual strength." But Fan Shengmei quickly changed the subject, "Look at Qingming, if it is related to Mr. Bao, this year is his mother's first Qingming. You may still focus more on forgiving his grief, customs and so on as long as they don't offend."
