So You’re Secretly Jealous Again - Chapter 37

Today is Saturday, a day off.

Whenever this happens, the shackles on the necks of social animals like Xu Fengyi are temporarily loosened.

Then, everyone poured into the major streets and stores from various offices and posts, filling every corner at once.

The crowdedness of the city has risen with the tide, and the usual quiet appearance is no longer there. The streets are full of vehicles, and there are endless pedestrians around.

Among the crowds and colorful vehicles, the busyness of the traffic police has also increased several times, and they still command and maintain safety and order with professional gestures.

In a short period of time, the city was as lively as a giant beast that had been sealed for a long time suddenly awakened, and it was almost terrifying.

As an old fritters among social animals, Xu Fengyi has long learned how to find a gap in the crowded world, and then enter it to find the law of survival.

So as soon as she went out, she turned on her mobile phone, and skillfully picked up an electronic number directly from the online store of that porridge shop.

In this way, there is no need to wait in line for a call. By the time she arrives at the Congee Kee Congee Shop, she should almost be able to line up for her, which can save a lot of time in the middle.

The fact is exactly as she imagined, there is no difference.

When Xu Fengyi arrived at the congee shop, it was almost 11:30 noon, and the number was about to be queued up to her. After only about ten minutes of waiting, there was an empty table inside, and it was her turn.

After following the waiter to a two-person table by the window on the second floor, Xu Fengyi put the small gift that Chen Siqi brought by the table, picked up a steaming glass of lemonade, and took two sips in a relaxed manner.

Drinking hot things in winter is like a good thing.

Before she knew it, her hand, which was as stiff as a popsicle blown by the wind, was warmed by the cup, making her feel much softer.

After drinking a few sips of water, Xu Fengyi put down the cup, took out her mobile phone, opened WeChat, and began to check whether Chen Siqi had sent herself a message.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the list was opened, all kinds of news flooded in, almost drowning her sight.

Two or three of them are from clients, and a few are from Li Aiguo and other colleagues.

It’s really not a day off.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Fengyi sat up straight, and after finishing everything one by one, finally had the real feeling that today was indeed a rest day.

Then, Xu Fengyi saw a WeChat message sent to her by Gu Yanyu’s children’s shoes ten minutes ago:

“It won’t be long before Christmas. Although it’s a foreign solar term, I know you’re not very interested, but it seems that there will be many activities in Yucheng Happy World that day, and there will be Christmas food festivals, do you want to come with me? go together?”

Christmas is coming.

how so fast?

In a trance, Xu Fengyi always felt that the last time Gu Yanyu asked her to go out for Christmas was not too long ago.

It is said that once a person passes the age of 20, he will feel that time cannot be stopped no matter what, and he can only let it slip through the fingers at the speed of light like fine sand. it is as expected.

Christmas is coming, which means January is coming too.

January is here, and March will not be far away.

And she, soon, will be a year older.

Yes, her birthday is March 6th. Inexplicably a little sad.

Xu Fengyi gently touched his chin with his fingertips. After thinking for a while, he nodded to the air alone, and then his fingers flew on the keyboard of the mobile phone, and replied, “Okay, as long as I’m free. Then, what about Xianzi?”

Gu Yanyu: “She’s busy. After all, she’s a businessman who just got better. She has a lot of things to do, and she has enough energy to come.”

Xu Fengyi understood: “Okay, then as long as I am free, I will prioritize this matter.”

Gu Yanyu: “Mmmm. However, if you can find another person, it would be great.”

Xu Fengyi slowly made a question mark.

Why do you have to pull another person, is there any activity?

Gu Yanyu: “I want to play the new Christmas-themed escape room from Shock Room, it seems to be very fun, and everyone’s comments on the Internet are not bad. But I looked it up, the theme is to three It’s only possible for individuals to open it, just the two of us, we can’t open it, but I don’t want to team up with other people, and I don’t have any other suitable candidates to make an appointment with.”

Xu Fengyi understood.

Gu Yanyu really likes playing secret rooms, especially the horror type.

But because her current occupation is writing, or full-time, not part-time, unlike other jobs, she can meet colleagues every day, and her social aspects are relatively simple, and many of the people she met when she was studying are now almost married and have children.

Before Xianzi was not busy, the three of them were just right, but now Xianzi is busy, it’s not easy.

Therefore, it is not easy for her to meet the right person at the right time.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try when I see it, and see if anyone is not afraid of the horror-themed secret room, I’ll bring whoever~” Xu Fengyi looked at the calendar habitually after playing Gu Yanyu back.

It’s December 19th, and Christmas isn’t that far away.

Somehow, Xu Fengyi immediately thought of Shu Jinshi.

In fact, Xu Fengyi felt that Shu Jinshi was quite suitable.

Mainly because they had gone out to play together before, and Shu Jinshi gave her the impression that she was not afraid of anything and could play anything. The most important thing is that Shu Jinshi is not the type who doesn’t know how to get along with people who meet for the first time. Even if it is the first time, everyone will not be embarrassed by being unfamiliar.

Just when Xu Fengyi was thinking about these things, senior sister Chen Siqi sent a message: “I seem to be almost there.”

Xu Fengyi’s brows moved, and she instantly smiled.

When she was about to reply, she received a new message from Chen Siqi.

“is it here?”

Behind the text, there is a picture attached.

The picture taken is the sign of this store.

Xu Fengyi curled her lips: “Yes, this is the one. I’m waiting for you at table A11 on the second floor, senior, come straight up!”

After sending the message, Xu Fengyi hurriedly took out a small round mirror from her bag and put it in front of her eyes to take a look, carefully sorting out the flow of hair, the collar of her clothes, etc.

Even after finishing, Xu Fengyi practiced several ways to smile in front of the mirror.

It’s like going to an interview meeting.

But what she didn’t know was that at a certain table, which was blocked by some green plants and screens, a slap-faced lady wearing a long dark gray coat and black Martin boots, with her signature fluffy wavy hair, was standing. He wrapped his arms around his belly and sat there quietly watching her.

This lady is Shu Jinshi.

Today, the door was rushed, so she only put on some makeup cream and lipstick, and did not do any other embellishments.

Rao is so, so she is still incomparably beautiful.

Whenever someone passes by her, they can’t help but look at her twice, but they will soon be forced back by her indifferent gaze, walk away quietly, and whisper with the people around her something similar to “That woman is so beautiful. ” and so on, and they each do their own thing.

For these compliments, Shu Jinshi turned a deaf ear today, and his entire attention was always on Xu Fengyi’s side.

This angle is relatively secret, nothing to see, and Xu Fengyi still has her back to Shu Jinshi, so even if Shu Jinshi is sitting here like this, Xu Fengyi will have a hard time finding her.

Shu Jinshi couldn’t help laughing a few times after watching Xu Fengyi practice smiling in front of the mirror there.

Isn’t it just to see a senior, as for this look? Also do this in front of the mirror.

This is really interesting.

One thing to say, she is now more and more curious about that senior.

She wanted to see where the real senior sister really belonged, and she was able to make Xu Fengyi so obsessed with it after being out of society for so many years.

A few minutes later.

Just as the waiter brought the porridge Shu Jinshi ordered, a woman wearing a small white shirt inside, a navy blue straight coat, a high ponytail, Martin boots, and a long black umbrella in her left hand came upstairs.

The woman’s body is thin and straight, her legs are as thin as two chopsticks, she is tall and thin, and her whole body is full of energy, which attracts everyone’s attention as soon as she comes up.

Others sighed in a low voice, “Wow, her legs are so thin.”

Shu Jinshi couldn’t see the woman’s face clearly.

But it doesn’t matter if you see it or not.

Because after the woman came up, she went straight to Xu Fengyi’s position and walked quickly.

In other words, this woman is the senior sister Xu Fengyi said.

This person is about the same height and size as Xu Fengyi. The real person looks much paler than the photos, and the whole person, whether in appearance or temperament, reveals a strong appearance of three good students.

So, this kind of human being so thin that the chest and back are as flat as the back, and the legs are thinner than mosquitoes, as if they will be broken off if they are not careful, is Xu Fengyi’s ideal type?

Thinking about it carefully, Xu Fengyi’s predecessor Yi Zhiya, isn’t that the case? The only difference is probably that Yi Zhiya looks more iron-clad.

So Lala is a creature, does it still prefer the kind of person who is more iron? It’s really incomprehensible.

Shu Jinshi didn’t know what junk things were going around in his mind right now, he couldn’t be free anyway.

Afterwards, Shu Jinshi took several sips of lemonade and continued to stare over there.

That woman is indeed Xu Fengyi’s senior sister Chen Siqi, the light of Xu Fengyi’s student days.

When Xu Fengyi saw her, her eyes lit up with excitement.

Before anyone came, she had already stood up.

Xu Fengyi didn’t know that Shu Jin was watching them secretly at the moment, and still chatted and laughed with Chen Siqi, so intimate that some people would believe that they were born by the same mother.

“By the way, Senior Sister,” Xu Fengyi smiled and picked up the bag containing the snacks from the Jinla Workshop and sent it to Chen Siqi respectfully and politely, “This is the product from the Jinla Workshop, which is what we chatted with before. When you said the one you wanted to try, I bought all of them for you, try it!”

She really likes Chen Siqi, and her attitude towards Chen Siqi is comparable to that of her clients, but she doesn’t pretend, but from the heart.

Seeing the bag, Chen Siqi opened his eyes slightly, and moved the phone in front of him to the side. After making room, he stretched out his hands to pick up the bag and put it in front of him: “Oh my God, thank you… I heard this. The line up is outrageous, and I’m still hesitating whether to line up today… So, did you help me line up by yourself?”

“Yes, but you’re welcome,” Xu Fengyi took back her hand after handing over the things, shook her head and smiled, “Actually, I didn’t queue for long. I was lucky when I bought it, and it was my turn before a few people came.”

Not long in line? Shu Jinshi narrowed his eyes slightly.

This is to prevent the other party from having a psychological burden, and tell a white lie?

Shu Jinshi smiled but folded his arms. She wanted to see what Xu Fengyi could pull up next.

Oh, I also bought all the models, it’s really 360-degree intimate.

A few minutes later.

After some chatting, Xu Fengyi and Chen Siqi became quiet, and they didn’t look so excited. They each took the menu and ordered something to eat, and after the waiter left, they chatted earnestly.

“Have you been staying in Yucheng?” Chen Siqi asked.

Xu Fengyi nodded, smiling lightly: “Yes, it’s been so many years in a flash. It’s really cruel here. To be honest, I’ve thought about giving up several times. It’s just that when I think of your lecture, What you said, I forced myself to give up that thought again. You are right, if you want to be worthy of yourself, don’t be afraid to endure hardship. The current life experience is reversed from that of old age. “

Chen Siqi smiled lightly, and said in a tone of an old man looking at a child: “You have really grown up, and you are no longer the little girl who cried and cried at every turn, and rushed forward while crying. Now you are still aggressive. Now, people are much calmer, not bad.”

She could see one thing from Xu Fengyi’s dress. That is, even if Xu Fengyi hasn’t made a lot of money yet, he should be the kind of person who doesn’t worry about food and drink.

Such a person shows that he is quite capable.

“Haha, Senior Sister is really, you said it like some elder is talking to the younger, obviously you are not older than me.” After some greetings, Xu Fengyi is now very relaxed, no longer like As cautious and unprepared as before.

Chen Siqi shook his head: “How old are you? Are you in love now?”

Xu Fengyi suddenly flashed Yi Zhiya’s appearance in her mind, and thought of Shu Jinshi’s pillow beside her bed, and her heart froze.

After that, she smiled and shook her head: “No.”

The former has been divided, the latter, they are not in that kind of relationship.

Chen Siqi smiled brightly: “So are you focusing on your career?”

Xu Fengyi nodded and chatted along her words: “Yeah, rather than falling in love, I still think it’s more important to do a good job first.”

“Also, it’s not safe to rely on anything, it’s best to rely on yourself.” Chen Siqi smiled lightly.

“So, what about you, Senior Sister?” Xu Fengyi threw the question back to her.

Chen Siqi put one hand on his cheek and smiled: “We talked about it, we broke up, and now we are not in love. Where is the happiness in making money in love?”

Xu Fengyi nodded in agreement.

Immediately, Xu Fengyi asked again: “By the way, Si Qi, are you here just for fun?”

Chen Siqi smiled and shook his head: “No, in fact, I have to come here to work in the future because of a job change.”

“Wow, wouldn’t that be good? That way we can see each other often, right?” Xu Fengyi’s eyes were bright.

Chen Siqi nodded: “Yes. And the company has already arranged for me to live in a place, so I can check in directly with my bag.”

Immediately, Xu Fengyi picked up the male chopsticks, and put a piece of fluffy and beautifully scrambled yellow egg into Chen Siqi’s bowl: “Wow, so thoughtful? Great! By the way, sister, don’t you like scrambled eggs with chives? I would choose this porridge shop, on the one hand, I came here because I heard that the house made this special dish, you should try it!”

“Wow, you have a heart,” Chen Siqi’s eyes lit up, “Do you still remember this?”

How could Xu Fengyi forget: “Of course, although we didn’t eat a few times in total at that time, but you always order this every time, and you will naturally remember it when you come and go.”

Chen Siqi’s eyes turned into crescents with a smile: “Fengyi, I didn’t say it, you are really caring, it makes people feel warm, thank you.”

Xu Fengyi hurriedly waved her hand: “Where, don’t say thank you, it’s so unfamiliar…”

At this point, Shu Jinshi closed his eyes.

Suddenly, I really wanted to block those two people directly.

It’s amazing, she really can’t see that Xu Fengyi is so smooth in interpersonal relationships. Originally, she was still thinking that Xu Fengyi would make a soothing soup for herself, it must be because in her heart, she was still unique.

But now a comparison, where there is something so unique, it is clear that everyone is the same.

She was overconfident.

No, it’s the same everywhere?

It’s different, okay, Xu Fengyi will praise Chen Siqi as beautiful as she is glowing, will queue up people to buy this kind of thing, and will give people an egg with a big chopstick. How can she get such treatment when she is Shu Jin? How dare you ask for it?

So far, she only has a bowl of soothing soup when she is Shu Jinshi. Is this treatment less shabby than others?

Picking up the teacup, Shu Jinshi took a sip, but frowned.

I have to say that the tea in this shop is really bad, it’s all old tea, and it smells musty.

He let out a long breath and changed his legs from the left leg to the right leg to the right leg to the left leg, Shu Jinshi picked up the phone and checked the time.

Then, she thought about whether she should leave or not. To be honest, she doesn’t really want to stay in this restaurant anymore.

Although she would come here, in addition to wanting to know what kind of sacredness this Chen Siqi is, that it can make Xu Fengyi so fascinated, there is actually another reason.

That is, if she looks at the problem from the perspective of a bystander and an outsider, she always feels that no matter how close the two of them were before, but they haven’t had much in-depth contact after graduation. All of a sudden, asking to meet and play something without warning is a bit too abrupt.

You must know that in this world, there are really many examples of incidents in the news because of sudden invitations from old classmates who have not been in contact for a long time.

But now she feels that this matter may really be overthinking it.

Judging from the acquaintance of the two people and the topics they talked about, it is unlikely that the kind of incident in the news will occur.

What’s more, Chen Siqi suddenly came here because of a job change?

Well, Shu Jinshi felt that he probably had enough to eat.

At the same time, after Chen Siqi finished eating the egg, he smiled at Xu Fengyi: “It’s delicious.”

“Really? This store has been carefully selected by me.” Xu Fengyi felt relieved when she saw that she liked it.

Before, she was afraid that she would not choose well, so that the other party’s food would be tasteless.

At this point, Shu Jinshi was distracted and pulled away the stool, ready to go downstairs to pay the bill.

But at this moment, Chen Siqi took a sip of water, suddenly changed the topic, and continued to chat: “Then are you satisfied with your current job?”

Shu Jinshi turned his head to look over there, and then sat back slightly twisted.

Xu Fengyi: “I’m quite satisfied.”

Although sometimes I am a bit busy, I still work overtime in the middle of the night or something, but I am very trained, I can learn a lot of things, and the colleagues around are also very good, although the work content is very repetitive, the atmosphere is not bad, everyone is like a blind date Like a family that loves each other, they help each other from time to time.

Chen Siqi looked at the dishes on the table with a slight smile, and continued to ask, “Then what is your current income from this job? Are you kind and alright?”

Xu Fengyi replied: “It’s okay… Well, it looks like more than 10,000 a month, and there is still room for promotion. As long as you persist, it will always get better and better.”

Chen Siqi stirred the spoon, scooped the spoonful of porridge, put it on his lips and took a sip: “However, it should take several years to work hard, right? Four or five years?”

Xu Fengyi held her cheek with one hand: “Almost, that’s right, but it doesn’t matter, I’m not in a hurry. Don’t you want to be down-to-earth? Take it slow.”

What’s more, she doesn’t have to pay rent anymore, she can save a lot more money every month, and she is even less anxious.

Chen Siqi smiled, seemingly agreeing, but in reality it wasn’t: “Yes, but occasionally it can be flexible. It’s not good to be too step-by-step.”

“Workaround?” Xu Fengyi didn’t know what she was referring to.

Shu Jinshi had a complicated expression, and he didn’t know what to think.

Chen Siqi nodded: “Yes, be flexible.”

“Actually, I used to think the same way as you, that I wanted to take everything slowly, but then I found out that many things simply cannot allow me to take it slow. For example, when I get sick, I was suddenly sworn to spend the rest of my life. I betrayed when I was at a low point. At this time, I wish I had a mine at home, so I would not have to worry about anything. At the same time, I would also blame myself, why I couldn’t work harder in the first place, why I had to Take it slow…”

Xu Fengyi did not expect that Chen Siqi’s life has not been as smooth as he thought in these years, and it can even be described as rough and bitter.

Sure enough, does everyone have their own, completely unknown side?

Seeing her recalling those bad pasts, Xu Fengyi felt a little uncomfortable: “Sister…”

Chen Siqi suddenly stretched his brows, and smiled lightly again: “Sorry, I don’t know why I suddenly told you this, obviously you haven’t experienced it yet. It’s just that life is In this way, you will always be caught by surprise when you think you are already very good, and I never thought I would experience that before.”

Xu Fengyi was holding the handle of the spoon, and the center of his eyebrows was slightly raised by two points.

To be honest, Chen Siqi’s words are not unreasonable.

In fact, she was not unexperienced in unexpected unexpected events, but it was not as miserable as Chen Siqi.

For example, when she first came out of the society, she didn’t have much money at first, but she also met a bad boss who ran away with arrears of salary, and also fell ill, and she had nothing left. Fortunately, Liang Xian and Gu Yanyu helped, This thing is over.

Although she and Shu Jinshi are living together now and don’t have to pay the large rent, who knows if they will be cut off halfway because of inappropriateness?

In that case, she has to move out, right? It is better to have a house of your own, and it is the kind of house that exists as a pre-marital property.

In addition, even if they passed the year smoothly, they were suitable in all aspects, and it was confirmed that the other party was their future partner, and things were not that simple.

What kind of family is the Shu family? What is her family like?

The door is not right, it’s them.

Although Shu Jinshi didn’t say it, Xu Fengyi felt that if his side was not good enough, the Shu family would definitely dislike it.

Thinking about it, Xu Fengyi lost his appetite, and his heart was gradually filled with anxiety.

However, just worrying is useless. If this problem is not solved, things will always lie there.

After a while, Xu Fengyi sighed: “But, there is no way out of this rush. You know, there is no magic in this world, so I can’t become a rich woman if I want to become a rich woman later.”

Chen Siqi rolled his eyes, looked at her for a while, and said with a smile, “That’s right. So I learned to be flexible, otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to see me like this, such a confident me.”

After going around, the topic finally came back.

“What do you mean by this flexibility?” Xu Fengyi asked curiously.

Chen Siqi smiled lightly: “It’s just to change jobs. In fact, I could only earn more than 10,000 yuan in my previous job, which is a lot, but if something really happened, it would not be enough to spend. So I simply changed. got a job.”

“Is that so…” Xu Fengyi nodded, gradually becoming curious, “Then what kind of job did you change?”

Chen Siqi put his hands under his chin: “It’s just selling household luxury goods, from kitchen appliances to sofas, everything is sold, and the commission is very high.”

Xu Fengyi nodded and asked curiously, “How tall is it?”

She had heard before that this industry was one of those people who either couldn’t make an order, and could eat for a month as soon as they made an order.

Chen Siqi smiled: “If you can successfully sell a million-dollar sofa, this is the single income.”

Chen Siqi raised his hand to compare the number.

Xu Fengyi was shocked.

After a long while, she swallowed: “So good? How do you usually sell it?”

Chen Siqi raised his eyelids to look at her, lowered his head and took another sip of porridge: “You are so curious.”

Xu Fengyi smiled: “I will definitely be curious.”

For a moment, Chen Siqi put down the spoon, put a smile on his lips again, and looked at Xu Fengyi: “Well, it’s rare to see you once, otherwise don’t go back at night, just stay with me at my place, and then we’ll be like the university. For a while, wrapping the quilt and chatting slowly, how?”

Xu Fengyi hadn’t said a word yet, but when she was Shu Jin at another table, her eyebrows were already twisted into a bow.

——————–

The author has something to say:

When Shu Jin heard Xiao Fengyi compliment her senior sister, her heart was OS:

What about Chen Siqi’s whole body glowing, this adjective… Is she a UFO spaceship?

When I heard my sister’s invitation.

Shu Jinshi: Go, go, go, just don’t come back when you go!

Xu Fengyi: Oh! Then I really went ah?

Shu Jinshi: ? you dare!
