Long Street - Chapter 29
In a blink of an eye, in June, the Imperial City was already warm enough to wear a skirt.
On the road to work towards Yu, the green belts on both sides of the road are full of roses.
Jin Fubai has been abroad for 4 months. To her, he only said that his grandmother was not in good health, but Xiang Yu was sensitively aware that he had other reasons why he could not walk away.
It’s just that he didn’t say, and she didn’t ask much.
After the new year, Xiang Yu was also busy with her small broken company for a while, and there were a few weekends where she had to work overtime in the company.
The owner of the company is called Zhou Lie. Although he is a young man aged 25 or 26, he is still a Zhou Zheng, and the employees still call him “Zhou Peipi” in private.
Regardless of appearance, this is an eternal contradiction between employees and bosses.
Xiang Yu and Zhou Lie walked a little closer, and didn’t scold him for “Zhou Papi” after working overtime.
Although she aspires to be a salted fish, when she really works overtime or has a lot of work pressured, she can be regarded as hardworking, without so many negative emotions.
The advantage of this is that there is always a mini telescope hanging next to the badge on her chest.
When you go to Zhou Lie’s office, you can take it out, run a small errand in front of the boss, and look at the other side.
In mid-June, for a few days, in the opposite office building, there was a blooming poppies in the vase on the table, which was very beautiful.
Xiang Yu held up the bronze binoculars and glanced at it, with a smile on his face inadvertently, but he heard Zhou Lie say: “Assistant Xiang, I will give you a table in the office?”
She put down the binoculars and ignored his calculations: “No, although I have two jobs, my goal has always been to be a full-time front desk. You should hire a suitable new assistant as soon as possible.”
Zhou Lie didn’t talk much, so he just nodded and said that I got it.
When he looked at a piece of the document carefully, and then raised his eyes, Xiang Yu still didn’t leave.
She was standing by the window thoughtfully, in a daze.
Zhou Lie knocked on the desktop and asked, “Is there anything else?”
Xiang Yu looked back with his binoculars and tentatively said: “Boss, you said that I have been so diligent and hardworking since years ago until now. Is it possible to apply for an annual leave in advance?”
She has not been employed for a full year, and according to the company system, she cannot take annual leave.
But Zhou Lie had seen Jin Fubai’s car more than once, and once, he found a telescope to look at the opposite office building.
The entire 7th floor on the opposite side was empty, with only a flower on the desk.
This can also explain why the company suddenly went smoothly to an unimaginable point when it managed big shots after the Chinese New Year.
So he knew that because he had Xiang Yu in his company, certain “upper” interpersonal relationships gave him a lot of convenience.
Zhou Lie thought about it briefly, and nodded in response: “Let’s stop, when you want to stop, write an application and send it to me directly.”
In fact, Xiang Yu wanted to take a vacation because of Jin Fubai.
Jin Fubai called at noon. He was silent on the phone for nearly a minute without saying anything.
The weather in Emperor City was fine and the sun was shining brightly. When Jin Fubai came over on the phone, Xiang Yu was having lunch.
The pasta in the convenience store is heated in a microwave, and a slice of cheese is melted into the tomato beef sauce. The taste is not bad.
Facing the noon sun with headphones in her ears, she heard Jin Fubai’s silence and silently put down the plastic fork in her hand.
For a moment, she thought she was a foreign country more than 10,000 kilometers away, and she was in the same silent night as Jin Fubai.
Xiang Yu was also silent for a long time before lowering his voice and calling him anxiously: “Jin Fubai?”
The person on the phone seemed to have just regained his senses, and then he said, “What are you doing?”
“For lunch, the pasta in the convenience store tastes good. When you come back, I will invite you?”
At this time, Jin Fubai’s mood had returned to normal. He laughed and teased her, saying that he had traveled all the way back to China. Is she going to ask her to eat pasta from a convenience store?
She also asked her if she was detained for being late again this month.
Xiang Yu told him not to crow’s mouth, saying that he had kept full attendance for two months.
After a while, she said softly: “The salary for the past few months has been saved. You can eat whatever you want when you come back.”
Jin Fubai smiled and asked, “Do you miss me?”
“Ok.”
Hanging up the phone, I was a little uneasy and didn’t even eat a few bites of pasta.
She always felt that there was a kind of powerless loneliness in Jin Fubai’s silence for nearly a minute.
So an idea came up, and she wanted to find him.
The annual leave was approved on June 20th, and Xiang Yu took nothing and went to the airport alone.
When I received a call from Tang Yuchi on the road, the young master asked in surprise: “Are you really going to find Jin Fubai?”
“Well, I went to play for a few days by the way. Zhou Lie gave me a ten-day holiday.”
Tang Yuchi couldn’t say anything on the phone. She just said that she should pay attention to her own safety, remember to report safety when going abroad, and remember to charge the mobile phone and don’t turn off at any time. It is worrying that she can’t be contacted.
Mother-in-law, it seems that she is going to the desert island where Robinson drifted.
Said to Yudu, and then hung up.
In fact, she hesitated to find Jin Fubai.
Foreign countries are another “circle” of Jin Fubai. She is not sure whether she should disrupt the current peace.
I’m not sure if I went abroad, and whether the Jin Fubai I saw was the same person as Jin Fubai in the imperial capital.
But this is not the case for people, and there is always a desire for romance in a peaceful life.
Even when Du Mu wrote “Red Cliff”, he always wrote the sentence “Bronze bird spring deeply locks Er Qiao”. She is an ordinary person with a little irrational affection in her mind. Isn’t it normal?
Go, go with him, if he needs it.
From February to April, Jin Fubai had been working in the family business, meeting the shareholders of the management every day and listening to them arguing with their own opinions. Conservatives and radicals fought against each other, as did members of the conservatives themselves. People who have bad personal relationships confront each other, and those who have close personal relationships also confront them.
Noisy and noisy makes people a headache.
It was late at night, and because of different opinions, a major shareholder threw his teacup and walked away.
My grandmother was in poor health these days. She coughed and coughed bloodshot at night. Today, she finally fell asleep earlier. Jin Fubai didn’t dare to disturb her, smoked silently next to the gas, and then called Xiang Yu.
In fact, Jin Fubai couldn’t mention these things to Yu at the same time.
He was only very late at night and missed her very much.
When the phone dialed, he smoked in silence and didn’t speak to Yu. After being silent, I don’t know how long. Xiang Yu’s careful breathing sounded from the phone. Finally, she tentatively called him, Jin Fubai?
The voice was so soft, as if looking at the pond for the moon, and afraid of breaking a pond of moonlight.
Jin Fubai’s irritability gradually calmed down in this voice.
After chatting casually, hanging up the phone and turning around, his grandmother stood silently behind him.
Her face was old and wrinkled, and she was in poor health today, and her face was pale.
So what if the net worth is over 100 million yuan? The same can’t resist the aging of the years.
Jin Fubai’s grandmother is the only person Jin Fubai is close to in the entire family. His grandfather and grandfather’s family are family friends, and they are also the best business partners. These are the achievements of her grandmother.
She was a powerful woman when she was young. Her grandfather died young, and Jin Fubai’s mother’s entire family was expanded by her grandmother.
But while she was overwhelming, she was also a kind old man.
She was the only elder who urged him to marry because of a girl who looked so good to be worthy of him, not because of family interests.
That’s right, the only one.
The wind was heavy at night, and my grandmother felt weak when she coughed. She took Jin Fubai’s hand and told him in Cantonese, Fubai, don’t be too angry. After all, we are all ants on the same boat.
The reason why she is respected may not only be the means, but because she always makes people comfortable talking.
Sitting in the position of the leader of the entire group, he said he was an ant.
Jin Fubai was sharp, nodded and said yes.
Because of the persuasion of his grandmother, Jin Fubai did not show any hostility in the next two days. He even banqueted several shareholders heavily to explore ways to win the support of some radical shareholders.
It’s just that the luncheon that day was not pleasant.
A respectable old man mentioned at the dinner table: “The young lady from the Chu family has a lot of love. Perhaps marriage is the best way to get support from all families.”
Jin Fubai was humbly nodding his head while listening to the elders’ speech, and he didn’t help but hear such a proposal.
He slowly raised his eyes and snorted coldly: “I am a duck? The Jin family’s hundreds of billions of assets originally needed me to sell and maintain?”
He said this awkwardly, and a table of people was embarrassed on the table.
Someone jumped out to make peace. In the end, even the old man changed his words to other topics, but Jin Fubai was always arrogant and did not respond.
At this time, Jin Fubai’s cell phone rang.
It is a message sent to taro:
[Jin Fubai, I’m at Los Angeles Airport. 】
Jin Fubai stared at the information for nearly half a minute, and then looked up again, his face slightly darkened.
He took the phone and got up: “Sorry everyone, I need to answer the call.”
Jin Fubai was standing in a quiet corridor talking to Yu. In a noisy environment full of foreign languages, she raised her voice and said joyfully: “I’m going to stay in Los Angeles for a few days. If it’s convenient for you, can you give it to me? A hotel address closer to you.”
She said, I can wait for you at the hotel if you have time to see me.
He was busy at the time, and she didn’t come at a good time.
But her words are so transparent that people press posts for no reason.
At that time, WeChat was far less developed than it was later, and its functions were not so comprehensive. It was only just now that it was possible to add a location address when posting photos in Moments, and there was no location information in the dialog box to post.
So Jin Fubai glanced at the closed door behind him and said, “I’ll let someone pick you up.”
Xiang Yu refused his request, saying that the annual leave was precious. Waiting for him to pick him up and wasting time at the airport, he might as well call a taxi.
Jin Fubai really couldn’t walk away, and gave her the name of a hotel, and said softly, “You are waiting for me at the hotel.”
When he returned to the dinner table, his impetuosity disappeared, and he offered to apologize to the elders on the table, saying that he was too young, so please bear with him.
The old man who proposed the marriage smiled, accepted his apology, and finally had a good talk.
Coming out of the hotel, Jin Fubai escorted several elderly people into the car, and then watched the elderly leave.
When I was about to take the car key handed over by the waiter at the door, I suddenly heard someone discussing a major accident in a foreign language.
Seven vehicles collided on the airport road, killing 5 people on the spot.
Among them is a woman who is Chinese.
Jin Fubai looked back sharply, the car key in his hand dropped on the marble step.
There was a continuous light rain in Los Angeles that day, and the weather was gloomy.
Wrapped in Jin Fubai’s black shirt and a white skirt, Xiang Yu sat in the car and waited for the road to be unblocked.
The cars inside the rain curtain were so blocked that they couldn’t see the end, and the cars behind them for unknown reasons kept honking their horns.
In front of Xiangyu was the guard line. Ambulances came and went. The traffic police were still at the scene. Foreign policemen in dark blue uniforms were among them. I don’t know what they were talking about.
The driver who pulled him out a series of foreign languages, Xiangyu’s foreign language proficiency is limited, can vaguely guess, the driver may be saying, bad luck, and don’t know when the traffic jam will happen.
She played Snake Snake at the airport on her mobile phone until she turned off when she was powered off, so she could only wait for the police to resolve it before letting go.
The sky is getting dark, the rain is not decreasing, there is no snake greedy, and I close my eyes to Taro boredly.
About an hour later, she vaguely heard someone calling her name.
The man speaks Chinese.
Is it Jin Fubai?
Xiang Yu pushed the car door in the rain, stood on tiptoe with the car door, and saw Jin Fubai in the crowd.
How to describe the scene, everyone turned into a silent background, only he was shuttled in the rain, behind him were two police officers who were dazed to stop but did not dare to step forward.
He took the loudspeaker from the policeman behind him, and his eyes were always full of affection with panic, frowning, and frequently calling her name: “Xiang Yu! Xiang Yu!”
If you say that you love someone, it can be conveyed by voice.
It must be Jin Fubai’s anxious call at this moment.
