My Second Life As A Secretary - Chapter 35
He Zining keenly noticed that the atmosphere in the car was not right, the main reason was the low air pressure on Qin Muzhou.
Is it his own words that remind him of any bad memories?
She carefully peeked at Qin Muzhou, and found that when Qin Muzhou did not smile, his facial features were not so gentle and friendly. His appearance is more stern and gentle, but because he is always smiling, it will cover up the indifference and alienation of his facial features.
Soon Qin Muzhou noticed her gaze and glanced at her quickly, “What’s wrong?” The smile returned to his face, and Qin Muzhou instantly became her usual appearance again.
At this time, she suddenly thought of a popular saying in ancient novels, people who like to smile are actually very sad. She is also a relatively optimistic person who loves to laugh. She thinks that people, even if they have steel will, they will be tired. Anyone who believes that they can stand firm on the ground just hasn’t experienced an earthquake. Life is like this, it is impossible to completely digest everything, so in theory, there is no one who can keep smiling and optimistic all the time.
She changed the subject to liven up the atmosphere, “I suddenly thought of a question.”
“Huh?”
He Zining asked seriously: “This is a British stage play. What if I don’t understand the lines? Wouldn’t it be too embarrassing?”
“Don’t worry, there will be screens showing Chinese subtitles on both sides of the stage play. The screens are huge and everyone can see them.”
“That’s good.” In fact, she was originally an English major and worked as a translator in a foreign trade company.
Qin Muzhou parked his car near the Grand Theater. There was still an hour before the performance, so Qin Muzhou suggested to go and have something to eat first.
“No problem, you can decide what to eat. I ordered it last time.” He Zining said.
Because the time was a bit rushed, the two found a fast food chain nearby to deal with it.
After eating, two people enter the venue with tickets. The theater of the stage play is generally not too big, with only twenty to forty rows of seats. I didn’t expect that Qin Muzhou’s seat was not bad. It was in the middle of the second row. When she was seated, most of the seats were already seated. She tried to find Lu Fang in the crowd, but the lights in the theater were very dim. It is almost impossible to find Lu Fang from so many dark figures.
Qin Muzhou saw her action and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, just take a look.” He Zining quickly gave up searching and shook his head: “Nothing, just take a look.”
Soon, the last lights in the theater went out, the spotlights on the stage came on, and the performance officially started.
She had no expectations for this work, she only regarded herself as Qin Muzhou’s anti-embarrassment companion, but I didn’t expect this drama to be really good, no wonder it would get Lu Zhanyuan and Qin Muzhou two It was recommended by a joint name. It was originally just a war-themed carol story, but looking at He Zining, he was already immersed in the plot, and when he saw the sad part, tears poured out.
Fortunately there is no light on, otherwise I must be embarrassed! She quietly took out a napkin from her bag, and when she wiped her tears, she found that the people around her were doing the same thing as her, and she could even hear the sobbing of the young lady from the back row.
She glanced at Qin Muzhou specially, but the other party didn’t cry, but her face was solemn and moved, and she was obviously immersed in the plot, so that’s good, in fact, she was a little worried that Qin Muzhou would not give up , but looking like this, he really just wanted to find someone to accompany him to the show. It’s not that I can’t understand it. Sometimes I can’t get up when I’m doing things alone. I just hope I can find a partner.
The stage play is divided into on and off stage, and there will be a fifteen-minute break in the middle. After the first half, many audience members ran out to breathe or go to the toilet. He Zining sat in the seat and did not want to move. She is very fortunate that she didn’t wear makeup today, otherwise she would have spent the makeup in the state where she was crying just now, and she couldn’t make up for it.
Qin Muzhou didn’t speak during the whole process, just sat quietly, as if thinking about something.
In fact, since we met today, He Zining felt that the other party was a little strange, and it couldn’t be called strange, but it was not the same as usual. If it was the usual Qin Muzhou, he would definitely take the initiative to find some topic to chat at this time, and he would not put himself aside in the cold, but this kind of him would make people feel more real?
Before she always thought that Qin Muzhou was too good, so good that she would have a burden, but she had no such evaluation of Gu Siye at all. Logically speaking, Gu Siye’s social status and achievement ratio Qin Muzhou is taller and has a bigger gap with herself. Why doesn’t she have such an idea?
After thinking about it, she came to the conclusion that Gu Siye felt more real. When reading novels, everyone only saw the domineering and rich of the domineering president, and the treatment of women. The master’s intentions, and his indifference to the characters other than the heroine, may make him feel that the hero is more like a perfect symbol, but since I follow Gu Siye to work every day, I will have a more detailed grasp of him. Naturally, he will understand that this is a living person standing in front of him.
And Gu Siye is not without flaws, it is a lot to say.
For example, lack of emotional intelligence, blunt speech, workaholic, no hobbies, no humanistic care, the first reaction to an accident is to give bonuses to solve the problem, emotionally also a straight boy, do not understand romance.
When she heard Bai Yinan say that Gu Siye gave her the bed, she wanted to laugh when she hadn’t slept all night, these two could obviously do something else at night!
—for example, chatting, watching movies, etc., such a good opportunity to develop feelings, do nothing, just sleep and sit stupidly, I really don’t know how to grasp the timing.
If she can spend a night with the person she likes in the same room, then she will have to do everything she can to understand each other and pull into the relationship between the two?
In short, Gu Siye looks very good, but in fact, there are a lot of shortcomings, and it is not a brainless object, as for Qin Muzhou… She really can’t find any shortcomings.
The rest time was over, and the second half started immediately. Her thoughts were instantly immersed in the plot, and she had no time to think about Qin Muzhou’s problem.
It wasn’t until the lights came on and the audience burst into warm applause that she was pulled back to reality in the story. She watched all the actors come to the stage for the curtain call with dazed eyes, followed by applause.
A good story can not only bring you a good reading experience, but also make you think. He Zining didn’t want to talk at all now, she was slowly thinking about the story in her mind, so she stood up without saying a word, and out of the corner of her eyes she caught Qin Muzhou following, so she didn’t care, and followed the crowd out.
Because there were so many people, she couldn’t see the road clearly, so she could only follow. She didn’t notice that there was another step on the ground, so she tripped and swayed forward uncomfortably. Only then did she react, she let out a low cry and tried her best to maintain peace. Suddenly, a force pulled her arm backwards and helped her maintain her balance. She said that it was very dangerous. There are so many people here, in case of a fall It might cause an accident. She quickly put down her thoughts and concentrated on the road under her feet.
When I walked out of the performance hall, I calmed down and turned to talk to Qin Muzhou.
“It was really too dangerous just now, thanks to you helping me…” She raised her head as she spoke, but she didn’t expect that the person standing in front of her was not Qin Muzhou, but Lu Fang?
“Lu Assistant!” She exclaimed in surprise, “I was wondering if I would run into you!”
The other party cast a puzzled expression, and she remembered how strange her words sounded, obviously she gave the vote. She explained embarrassedly: “Actually, the ticket for you was given to me by someone else, so I didn’t pay attention to the seat number.”
Lu Fang said, “I’m in the 13th seat in the first row.”
“No wonder I didn’t see you.” Her position was one to the left and one to the right of Lu Fang, so it would be strange if she could find it. “Then have you seen me before?”
“I didn’t pay attention, I saw you at the end.”
“I originally said I’d look for you, but the stage play is so beautiful that I can’t take care of it.” He Zining said embarrassedly,
“The plot is really exciting, thank you for your ticket.” But will Lu Fang cry when watching this stage play? He Zining glanced at Lu Fang and immediately killed the conjecture. She really couldn’t imagine how Lu Fang was moved to tears.
“You are too polite, as long as you like it.” Only then did she realize that Lu Fang was alone, and he didn’t look like he was waiting for someone, so she asked curiously: “Did you come alone?”
“Hmm.”
He Zining thought about the nature of Lu Fang’s work, and instantly resonated with him, “Actually, I’m too busy at work, and sometimes I don’t feel motivated to think of a person.” She sighed He said, “I’m sorry Lu Zhu, I knew I wouldn’t send you a ticket.” The other party must have felt that he couldn’t waste the ticket he sent, so he came here alone when he couldn’t find anyone to accompany him. Thinking about it this way Not only did he not give the right gift, but he also caused trouble for the other party.
“It’s okay, I prefer being alone, are you alone?”
“No, I’m here with a friend, but he seems to be… I got lost?” She was talking to Lu Fang while staring at the exit.
“That’s it.” Lu Fang lowered his eyes to restrain his emotions, and later said, “Then I’ll wait with you for a while.”
“Ah no, I can do it alone.” It happened that Qin Muzhou appeared at the exit. It is estimated that there was too much traffic. Just now, she only cared about going by herself, so she and Qin Muzhou were separated by the crowd. She hurriedly waved at Qin Muzhou, who immediately came over.
“My friend is here!”
Soon Qin Muzhou came over, his state seemed to be back, it was not surprising to see that there were suddenly more people around her, he explained the situation just now with a smile: “There were too many people just now, If you don’t pay attention, you will go far.”
“Haha, it’s my problem, I just thought about things. By the way, let me introduce you, this is Lu Fang, this is Qin Muzhou.”
Qin Muzhou took the initiative to smile: “Hello.”
Lu Fang also nodded in response, and then said to He Zining, “Then I’ll go first.”
“Okay, goodbye, be careful on the road.” He Zining watched Lu Fang leave, then turned to Qin Muzhou and said, “Let’s go, please drink sugar water! Hurry up, be careful that the store is closed. .”
Qin Muzhou comforted her and said, “Don’t worry, that store won’t close until after twelve o’clock.”
“Then we can’t delay. You don’t get up early tomorrow, I have to go to work.” Qin Muzhou was good-natured and didn’t care, and drove to the snack bar he visited last time.
It was already eleven o’clock, but the business in the snack bar was surprisingly good. There were middle-aged couples wearing home clothes walking out and drinking a bowl of sugar water, and there were also young couples who were in love whispering , as well as students who are carrying school bags as if they have returned from make-up classes. Men, women and children who have never met each other have jointly constructed an ordinary and warm portrait of the market.
They found an empty seat, ordered a bowl of sugar water and two snacks. While waiting, they discussed the plot of “War Horse”. Qin Muzhou knows the plot very well, and even knows the background of the story and the author’s life experience. He explained in great detail why Zining did not understand some small details in the performance process, and explained the content is simple and easy to understand, after listening to He Zining Sigh: “It’s a pity that you don’t become a teacher. You have good eloquence, clear thinking, and you can focus on key points.”
Qin Muzhou showed a very complicated expression, “Actually, I have always been interested in the cultural history of various countries, and I also wanted to study here…” It happened that the boss brought sugar water and snacks. Just interrupted him.
“Wow, I’ve really wanted to eat this for a long time.” He Zining actively picked up the spoon and drank it, and asked Qin Muzhou to drink quickly, sighing casually: “But this store is far from My home is too far away.”
Qin Muzhou was about to say something when He Zining immediately interrupted: “However, there are some things that must be kept scarce. If you can drink it every day, I don’t think this sugar water is so delicious. It’s over.” After speaking, she immediately lowered her head and took another sip, pretending she didn’t know anything, thinking in her heart that the relationship with Qin Muzhou should be treated coldly during this time, and it would be good for each other to have less contact.
But the character of the other party who has to take care of everything will really give her a sense of burden, which makes her start to wonder if there is something wrong with her wording, which makes the other party misunderstand that she is in Hinted.
“By the way, you continue to say, you want to continue your studies before, and then what?”
Qin Muzhou looked normal, and replied as if nothing had happened just now: “Then there were some irresistible factors, so I stopped reading.”
“Well, that’s a pity, but now with your conditions, financial foundation, and time support, if you really miss it, you should be able to give it a try. Learn to grow old.”
“I will consider it if I have the opportunity in the future, but I have more important things to do now.”
“Then take it slow, I think as long as there is a plan to do it.”
After drinking the sugar water, Qin Muzhou sent He Zining back to the community.
Until now, He Zining could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Even if this matter is officially resolved, she understands that Qin Muzhou’s abnormal performance today is that she knows that she doesn’t need to care too much about her image, so she relaxes a little.
Since Gu Siye’s return, He Zining has been busy again. In fact, this is not bad. Instead of having time to lament her loneliness, it is better to enrich herself with work, but she is also thinking about how to cultivate herself A hobby, otherwise it will only feel more and more boring in the future.
She has learned to turn a blind eye to the various small interactions between Bai Yinan and Gu Siye, and when she has time to think about it again, another week has passed, and it will be the end of the month .
Just when she began to sigh that life was starting to be boring again, Jiang Peizhen appeared again, and this time she brought a graceful middle-aged woman, no matter her skin condition or body maintenance. it is good. Jiang Peizhen had a very close relationship with her and appeared with her arm around her.
“Miss Jiang.” He Zining greeted her. As for the lady beside her, she didn’t know what to call her, so she nodded with a smile.
Jiang Peizhen smiled at her, and then said to the woman in a very close tone: “Auntie, this is Secretary He. Brother Si Ye values her very much.”
The middle-aged lady nodded reservedly at He Zining: “Secretary He, it’s been hard working by our Siye side.”
She said why Jiang Peizhen has been quiet recently, so she changed her strategy and ran to attack Gu Siye’s mother first, didn’t she?
