Ruo Chun and Jing Ming - Chapter 61
The weather forecast says that there will be heavy rain today.
The temperature was still 39 degrees in the morning, and the heat wave surged. Looking out through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, the sunlight on the glass of the nearby office building was like a blade. In the afternoon, all of a sudden the dark clouds shattered, the winds swept through, and the world was chaotic.
After a while, the heavy raindrops of the beans hit the glass and crackled. Suddenly, the lights in the office not far away were dim and dim.
Du Ruo was busy working and didn’t care about the weather. He only looked out of the window during thunder and continued to look at the computer after a second.
Today, she worked overtime until ten o’clock in the evening as usual. At the end of work, there was no one in the company.
She called the car and left.
There was still heavy rain outside.
Sure enough, it took a while to get in the car and it was jammed.
The heavy rains worsened the road conditions, and the drivers were in a hurry to go home or rush to their destinations, occupying the road, changing lanes, grabbing roads … blocking up.
Regardless of the red light and green light, the water leaked. As if in people’s eyes, the traffic light is just a display.
Who said that humans are far less compliant than machines.
Outside the window, heavy rain poured, and the sound of horns fluttered one after another, venting irritability and impatience.
Du Ruoyi yawned in the back seat of the taxi.
She had to go to the industrial park and laboratory on the weekend, and she had not slept for a long time.
The taxi moved around step by step, and was blocked again near her house.
Du Ruo lived in a community in the 1980s, and the roads around the block were narrow, so it was difficult to walk, let alone rain. It’s only at the intersection. When it’s in the alley, it’s terrible. You can’t get in.
She called He Huanhuan: “Erhuan, I didn’t bring an umbrella.”
The car moved to the alley, the rain curtain was murky, and the scene outside could not be seen clearly. She couldn’t stay in the car, pushed the door and rushed out of the car. The rain poured over the ground, and she stepped into the deep water in her calf with one foot.
Wow, she’s wearing cL high heels!
Rescue is too late now.
Her eyes were fascinated by the rain, and she couldn’t tell the direction.
“Xiao Cao! Here!” He Huanhuan screamed, holding an umbrella, a raincoat rushed towards her, and handed her the raincoat: “Quickly put on the umbrella, it’s useless!”
Putting on a raincoat, Du Ruo was mostly wet: “Oh my God, it’s too rainy.”
“Come here.” He Huanhuan choked her, “Xia Nan said Beijing has to come to this every July. Damn, we have a fight with the heavy rain in our summer.”
“This water is too dirty. Go back and wash your feet with laundry detergent.” Du Ruo lamented. “My shoes are waste!”
He Huanhuan was gloated and laughed, “Well, buy a little rich woman.”
They walked in the alley in the middle of the night’s heavy rain. On both sides were old red-walled brick buildings, a row of humble restaurants outside the community, Shaxian snacks, Guilin rice noodles, and Chongqing spicy hot. Inside are the six-storey residential buildings with dark red fading.
When Du Ruo returned home two years ago, she was not accommodating. He Huanhuan’s shared roommate moved away and she stayed. Later, the economic situation improved, and he never changed his house.
The two finally got into the building, closed their umbrellas and raincoats, and sighed.
They rented it on the top floor, and He Huanhuan complained when he went upstairs: “Some people are really incompetent. They always throw garbage in the corridor and get dirty.”
There is no property in the community and no one cleans it.
Du Ruo opened the door and entered the room. There were two rooms and one living room. They said so, but they were less than 50 square meters. The “one living room” was small enough to turn around.
He Huanhuan rinsed his legs and feet dirty with rain and gave up the small bathroom to Du Ruo.
When Du Ruo shampooed and took a shower, he found that the toilet and the corners were still stained. After washing, she went to the kitchen to take a look at the stove, and it was ashy.
Du Ruoyang asked, “Er Huan, did your aunt come to clean today?”
“Come here.”
She went into her room: “I don’t think this aunt is always serious in her work. She told her once last time and the result is still the same. The house was not cleaned.”
“Really?” He Huanhuan sat up from the sofa, lowered the fruit plate and iPad in her arms, pulled the slippers out of the room, and inspected the toilet and kitchen. “Really, I want to complain, and change her.”
The two called the housekeeping company and the matter was successfully resolved.
Du Ruo boiled water, put a handful of noodles, beat two eggs. Rinse two more bowls and add soy sauce, chili sauce, chicken essence, salt, and top soup. The noodles are cooked into a bowl and covered with eggs.
Two bowls of noodles come out of the pan.
Take another pack of mustard apart and split one bowl in half, and the two of them sit at the stove and eat.
He Huanhuan swallowed the noodles and said vaguely, “You didn’t eat at night?”
Du Ruo: “I ate a piece of bread.”
Huanhuan knocked her head: “Your stomach is gone!”
“Busy forgotten.” Du Ruo rubbed her head and looked at her. “You eat so much, didn’t you eat enough at night?”
“I can’t eat supper!” Huanhuan snorted again, “Xia Nan said to have a dinner every night.”
“Well. I saw it in the group. I was too busy at the time and forgot to return.” Du Ruo said, “Where is it?”
“There is Jiuxianqiao. It is said that there is a Japanese restaurant that is delicious.”
“Uh-huh. I’m going to the industrial park tomorrow. I’ll see you later.”
Huanhuan sighed: “Even if it’s morning to night, it doesn’t matter. Weekends don’t take a rest. Has Yi Kun raised your salary again? If this goes on, I’m really afraid of sudden death.
Du Ruobai: “You just died suddenly.”
The two chatted while eating, washing the dishes, clothes and shoes.
He Huanhuan called Du Ruo to her room to watch a variety show together, until Zeng Kefan called.
At first, Huanhuan, who most wanted to fall in love, finally fell in love. She and Zeng Kefan from Du Ruoban were together. It is also the only one in the dormitory with a current boyfriend.
The two were cooking on the phone, and Du Ruo returned to the room automatically.
Her room is much smaller than He Huanhuan. A bed occupies half of the room, and the remaining space is crowded with desks, bookcases and wardrobes. There was only a slap of open space.
But the room was clean and clean, with small white carpets on the floor, pink flowers wallpaper on the walls, pink sheets and quilts, light blue curtains, and her desk closet painted pure white.
On the table are creative lamps and fragrances, plus a few bunny dolls. An aquatic coppergrass is raised in a small glass ball, and a small fish swims in the water by the grass roots.
There were several small pots of succulent on the window sill, and a small tree with a flower in a small glass was fun and lively.
Standing on one foot of the carpet was a small white cylinder-like robot, Du Ruo called out, “Wale.”
The dormant little robot woke up, smiled at her with a crooked eye, slowly slipped to her feet, and stomped her legs.
She touched his head.
There is a heavy rain today, no need to turn on the air conditioner.
Du Ruo turned on the computer at the table, and Wally ran around the carpet to clean it. After processing a few emails with the help of a small robot, it was more than 12 o’clock.
She was so sleepy and yawned that she crawled to bed and fell asleep.
While sleeping, there was still a torrential rain outside the window, as if to destroy the world.
She nestled in a small bed in the corner, listening to the sound of wind and rain, and slept exceptionally peacefully.
This small room that does not belong to me has lived for a long time, and I feel at home.
…
The next day, the rain was fine. The weather became hot again.
Du Ruo went to the industrial park early in the morning and worked in the laboratory on her own machine vision system. In the afternoon, He Huanhuan called and reminded: “Don’t forget to have a dinner in the evening.”
Du Ruo saw that it was almost time, and packed up and left.
Arrived at Jiuxianqiao, the other three of the dormitory had sat in the tatami room, drinking black rice tea.
Du Ruo took off her shoes and went in, sitting cross-legged: “Xia Nan, are you getting thinner?”
Qiu Yuchen said: “I just discovered it, but I haven’t seen it for a month.”
“Oh, I got a thin face.” Xia Nan said, seeing Du Ruo staring at himself and blinking, “Yes, I have planted eyelashes.”
He Huanhuan: “No wonder the eyes look better. Recommend it to me. I want to plant it.”
Du Ruo: “But I heard that using eyelashes will make me thinner.”
Xia Nan gave her a glance: “Do people like you who are born longer and look better, just shut up? Believe me or not I send your ugly photos from college to your circle of friends.”
Qiu Yuchen: “The text is accompanied by: 20% of cosmetic surgery, roommate personally experienced. It does not look good refund.”
Du Ruoqi smiled.
Qiu Yuchen reached out and twisted her face: “What does this guy eat every day, pearl powder?”
“She eats a ghost.” He Huanhuan flipped through the menu and spit, “Eat on time …. What kind of sushi do you want to eat?”
Du Ruo: “I want to eat avocado.”
“I want Yuzi to burn. But the eyelashes will really become less.” Qiu Yuchen said, “I once planted it, and I won’t plant it again.”
“If you do n’t have any, continue to grow tadpoles,” Xia Nan said. “Come a grilled eel.”
The four of them finished their meals with diarrhea. Xia Nan asked, “General Manager Du, how are you doing recently?”
“Busy.” Du Ruo said with emotion, “After the expansion of the company, there are more and more people and it is too difficult to manage. Dealing with people … hey, it’s still comfortable to deal with machines.”
As I was talking, the cell phone rang and it was a call from an important customer of the company. Du Ruo immediately got up, put on his shoes and went out of the corridor: “Hey, President Hou?”
“Vice President Du, how did the new kids in your company get involved. There was a minor problem with the equipment we purchased, and they wouldn’t repair it.”
Du Ruo busy: “Then I will come right now …”
“No need. It happened that I was there to understand this and solve the problem. We are all acquaintances. It’s okay to have a little thing, but Vice President Du, you have to pay attention to the management of the staff.”
Du Ruo blushed and nodded again and again: “Thank you Hou for reminding me, thank you. I’m so sorry this time. I will definitely pay attention. Thank you.”
Putting down the phone, she raised her eyebrows, just about to call and ask questions, thinking that it was the weekend after all. The children of the Technical Services Department only graduated from college. Forget it, say it on Monday.
She returned to the private room and heard He Huanhuan inside said, “I went out to the party with Zeng Kefan last week and met Min Enzhu. Her current boyfriend’s special portrait Jing Ming scared me to death. I thought Jing Ming returned to China and was with her again . “
Du Ruo’s hand hung in the air for a moment.
Xia Nan said: “Women are just like men, and the type that they really like is difficult to change.”
Qiu Yuchen said suddenly: “This is true. The two boyfriends I talked about later were both intelligent and good-looking.” And asked, “How about you, how about the person you secretly love?”
Du Ruola opened the door, took off her shoes, and sat down with a smile: “What are you talking about?”
He Huanhuan laughed: “Yes, you don’t know yet. In the year of college graduation, Xia Nan drank too much wine while eating casual meals, saying that she had a crush on a boy from middle school. Hahaha.
Du Ruo was curious: “Who?”
Qiu Yuchen shrugged: “The mouth is very tight, so I don’t speak out.”
Xia Nan drank Xuanmi tea: “You don’t know each other, it doesn’t make sense to say it.”
Du Ruo: “It’s hard to imagine. Xia Nan actually has a crush, I think you are the kind of person who will go after him directly.”
Xia Nan: “He is too good.”
Everyone is more curious and wants to go into the gossip, but Xia Nan doesn’t want to talk more, and shifts the topic in a second: “Xiao Xiaocao, did you buy a new collarbone chain? It looks good.”
Qiu Yuchen: “I fancy this one before, is it more than 10,000, 20,000?”
He Huanhuan frowned: “I see that after you become the vice president, you have to buy everything, and you are not afraid to make ends meet! Don’t you want to save money to buy a house?”
Du Ruo: “It can’t be for the house, it’s not living.”
Qiu Yuchen gave her a thumbs up.
Du Ruo didn’t finish saying: “Anyway, I can’t afford it anytime soon. Haha.”
Although Beijing’s house prices have fallen a bit compared to when she went abroad six years ago, they still remain sky-high for her.
The four girls present here did not look very different from their school days.
Needless to say Xia Nan and Qiu Yuchen, Beijingers have cars and houses.
Xia Nan’s family was not a rich man, but when they were demolished and bought a house in the early years, the family had seven or eight apartments. Qiu Yuchen’s family is common, but there are two sets in the fourth ring.
He Huanhuan, when she graduated, the family paid her a down payment of three million yuan to buy a house. She rented the house at a high price to others and collected the rent to cover the monthly mortgage without any pressure.
Only Du Ruo, the best one when he was studying, is now working hardest.
However, she did not go to her heart, and her life is still long. She believes that her future will develop exponentially.
The only thing that would make her sad at night, but,
Over the years, she has changed a lot and got better, but the boy is gone.
After eating, the four walked out of the commercial building and went shopping in the opposite commercial district.
After a prosperous road, Xia Nan went to the overpass. Du Ruo followed, seeing the lights outside the bridge, and the traffic under the bridge was like weaving.
For a moment, the boy in the white shirt suddenly appeared in front of his eyes and turned to speak to her, his eyes shining like stars.
She was a little stunned, her pace slowed, and she looked up, but didn’t know what she was looking at.
“Xiao Cao, let’s go!” The girlfriends called in front.
She returned to her mind, and the boy was gone.
“Oh, here it is.”
She ran over.
Six years, she is 24 years old, and soon 25 years old.
I still ca n’t hear someone whose English name is Eva, I ca n’t hear the song called breakin’point, I ca n’t see maple leaves, I ca n’t see boys in good clothes, I ca n’t see cool sports cars, I ca n’t see diamond bracelets, See the flyover …
Otherwise, he will think of him.
But how can there be so many overpasses in Beijing.
