Stay Safe - Chapter 57
When Xiao Jin hummed the word “eat” from her nose, she was like a fluffy little puppy waiting for someone to touch her head.
Muzhenxi suddenly wanted to tease her for a while.
She scooped a spoonful of potato and beef brisket bibimbap with a spoon, held it with her palm, and brought it to her mouth, with a coaxing tone: “Ah.”
Xiao Jin hadn’t enjoyed this kind of intimacy for a long time, and was a little embarrassed for a while, his lips moved, and then he opened his mouth obediently and stretched his head forward. Mu Zhenxi’s eyes fell on the tip of her rosy and shiny tongue, and her heartbeat suddenly became unstable. She tried to restrain herself and turned her eyes back to the rice. When she was about to reach the rice, she suddenly withdrew her hand.
Xiao Jin’s mouth fell blank.
Xiao Jin: “…”
The mischievous wooden pillow brook smirked and put the spoon into his mouth: “I won’t give it to you.”
Xiao Jin pursed his lips and said, “Actually just now…”
Wooden Pillow Creek: “Huh?”
A faint smile flashed in Xiao Jin’s eyes: “My tongue touched the rice.” She paused and added, “Sweet.”
Wooden Pillow Creek’s smile froze on his face.
She recalled the moment when she just stopped her hand. Due to the limited viewing angle, she really couldn’t see whether Xiao Jin really touched the rice, that is to say, she could not confirm whether what Xiao Jin said was true or not.
If true, didn’t they kiss indirectly?
Mu Zhenxi’s eyes flickered, and finally he felt a shameful excitement from this possibility.
She swept her eyes from the corner of her eye, Xiao Jin was a little haggard today, and probably didn’t pay much attention to dressing up. The color of her lips was the original light color, and it was even paler in the wind. The urge to get up.
When Xiao Jin lost his memory before, he always wanted to kiss her in every way possible. At that time, Muzhenxi only had disgust in his heart except for the old love for the past. Now that she has regained her memory, she has also explained the past clearly, but Muxianxi has some unknown desires.
Her absent-mindedness was too obvious, Xiao Jin raised his hand and patted her arm, reminding in a low voice, “If you don’t eat it, it will be cold.”
Wooden Pillow Creek: “Oh oh oh.”
She took out another spoon from her pocket and gave it to Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin raised her eyebrows and was slightly surprised. She took it over and asked her without opening her mouth, such as: “Didn’t you say you won’t give it to me, why are you still preparing two spoons?” The problem, if Wooden Pillow Creek really didn’t let her eat, she wouldn’t go downstairs at all.
The two of you ate a spoonful of potato brisket bibimbap in the pot, and the other hand had to press the hair that was blown by the wind and obscured the view.
Occasionally, the eyes collided in the air, and the eyes quickly staggered.
Wooden Pillow Creek said, “You still remember…”
Xiao Jin nodded and said, “Remember.”
Wooden Pillow Creek smiled and said, “I haven’t said it yet.”
Xiao Jin also smiled: “Then you say.”
Muzhenxi clipped his long hair behind his ear, and said again: “When you were eating at school at noon, your lunch box was always full, and mine was rice and pickles. Every time you excused that you couldn’t finish it, you forced me to help you eat.”
Xiao Jin clarified: “I really can’t finish it.” She scooped another spoonful of rice dipped in the soup from the pot, pocketed it with her hands, and put it into her mouth, who was sitting quietly beside her. Wooden Pillow Stream, as if the past and the present overlap, a faint arc is raised on the lips.
It’s true that she can’t finish it, and it’s also true that she specifically asked her aunt to make her a lunch box for two.
Wooden pillow brook snorted and said, “It’s shameful to waste food.”
Xiao Jin shrugged: “It’s not a waste, didn’t I give you all to eat, I think you were very happy to eat.” After speaking, she felt a little resentful, and turned to look at the wooden pillow that was sitting a little higher than her. Xi’s head, “How come you can still grow taller even after you are in high school?” It’s not even a centimeter or two centimeters, is it okay to jump ten centimeters directly?
Wooden pillow stream: “How many years have you been, how many times have you scolded me for these ten centimeters?”
Xiao Jin glanced down: “Then cut your legs to me.”
Mu Zhenxi used the palm of his hand as a knife, accompanied by two click sound effects, and made a gesture of holding something with both hands, presented to Xiao Jin, and said faintly: “Come on, give you legs.”
Xiao Jin disliked his face: “Wow, it’s so bloody.”
Wooden Pillow Creek made a throwing gesture, clapped his hands, and laughed: “Okay, I can’t see it anymore.”
Xiao Jin continued to eat.
Seeing that her appetite was getting high, Muzhenxi stopped moving the spoon and concentrated on serving her the pot, thinking: The two of them are really busy, reminiscing about the past on the bench in this cold winter and twelfth lunar month.
Xiao Jin: “Aren’t you going to eat?” It was so fragrant, and she was so hungry again that after eating for a while, she realized that Muzhenxi didn’t eat with her.
Wooden Pillow Stream lied without changing his face: “I’m full, I ate cake at the company in the afternoon.”
Xiao Jin then ate the rest by himself.
Wooden Pillow Creek concealed the shock.
Xiao Jin put the spoon back into the pot, made a barely audible knock, and said in a low judo, “Thank you for dinner.”
Wooden Pillow Creek put the lid on the pot: “You’re welcome.”
After eating, there is no reason to stay together.
Wooden pillow creek didn’t want to leave, so his fingers rubbed the edge of the pot, his eyes turned left and right, and he racked his brains to find an excuse.
Xiao Jin took the initiative to say, “Go home and sleep.”
Wooden Pillow Creek asked, “How about you?”
If Xiao Jin said she was going to sit here for a while longer, then Muzhenxi decided to accompany her here and let her sit alone until dawn, Muzhenxi couldn’t take it easy.
Who knew that Xiao Jin had changed her mind. She raised a smile and said, “Of course I also go home and sleep.”
“That’s good.” Wooden Pillow Creek was slightly disappointed by the result.
Xiao Jin closed the scarf and stood up first: “Go back, I’ll leave when you go in.”
Wooden Pillow Creek made a low “um” and stood up.
Xiao Jin looked at her and said, “Good night.”
Wooden Pillow Creek nodded and replied, “Good night.”
She walked to the door of the building, turned around just after walking a few steps, and warned anxiously, “I don’t take those things to heart anymore, you don’t have to blame yourself.”
“Yeah.” Xiao Jin smiled.
Wooden pillow Brook changed the tone of threat, but those who knew her knew that she was just a paper tiger at the moment, only fierce on the outside, but enthusiastic on the inside: “If I see you blowing hair below again, be careful I turn my face and don’t recognize anyone.”
“Understood.” Xiao Jin still smiled, but there was a hint of seriousness in his smile.
It’s rare for Xiao Jin to be so obedient and obedient. Mu Zhenxi felt itchy and wanted to touch her head again. She resisted the urge to come forward again, waved at the other party, and opened the door downstairs. , raised his hand to open the door.
“Wooden Pillow Stream!” A suddenly high voice came from the night wind.
Muzhenxi turned around quickly, as if he was waiting for this sentence, his eyes flashed brightly and happily: “What’s the matter?”
Xiao Jin’s lips twitched, but in the end she couldn’t say anything. The light of the street lamp shone inch by inch behind her, pulling out a slender shadow.
Wooden Pillow Creek waited for a long time, the silence spread, she sighed in her heart, and said again: “Good night.”
Xiao Jin took a step back, put both hands in his coat pockets, and nodded gently: “Good night.”
The back of Wooden Pillow Stream disappeared from sight.
Xiao Jin added what he wanted to say to her in his heart.
thanks.
and,
I love you.
She stood there for a while, and didn’t know what to think before slowly moving her footsteps and walking towards her house. After entering the door, she took out her mobile phone from her pocket and found that there was a text message from Wooden Pillow Creek just two minutes ago, and several missed calls from Wooden Pillow Creek – an hour ago, her phone was muted and she did not receive it.
Xiao Jin clicked on the text message.
Wooden Pillow Creek: [Are you home? 】
Xiao Jin’s lips curled slightly, and he typed: [Arrived]
Wooden Pillow Stream: [bath and sleep]
Xiao Jin: [OK]
Xiao Jin walked into the bathroom with heavy steps, poured water into the bathtub, and sat on the bay window looking at the window of the wooden pillow brook. Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Jin typed and sent her a message: [The water is ready, I’ll take a bath]
Maybe it was because the state was so bad tonight, Xiao Jin wanted to find someone to divert her attention so that she could take a breath.
Originally, she wanted to stay silently downstairs in Muzhenxi’s house, get closer to her, and slowly build herself up and return to normal. But the appearance of Muzhenxi disrupted her plan. She couldn’t survive by herself after what she had just experienced. As long as Muzhenxi said a word to her, she could draw infinite power from it.
Wooden pillow stream looked at the news: “???”
So why should I tell her that the bath water is ready? Is this another way to seduce?
If Xiao Jin had this idea, Muzhenxi could only say…she succeeded.
Half an hour later, Xiao Jin came out of the bath and saw Muzhenxi’s reply: [OK]
Report to her again: [After soaking, I will go to bed and read a book for a while]
Mu Zhenxi was copying the scriptures with a golden water-based pen, and the screen at hand lit up. She finished copying the line under her hand, and recited silently: Color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color… calmly ended the topic ahead of schedule: [I go to sleep first, Good night】
Xiao Jin: [Good night]
Xiao Jin put the letters written to her by Muxianxi on the bedside, read them one by one under the lamp, and finally put them in the safe in her room, connecting the photo album and wooden box together.
She took a leave of absence and slept at home all day. The next day she woke up with her eyes so swollen that she could barely see. She narrowed her eyes and found two ice packs for cold compresses. She leaned her head back on the back of the sofa.
The phone on the coffee table vibrated, Xiao Jin fished over to take a look, Yin Xiaoli invited her to dinner.
Xiao Jin’s respectful appearance could not meet anyone, so he refused.
Unusually, Yin Xiaoli didn’t ask any more questions.
Xiao Jin thought about it for a while, but did not figure out why, and simply continued to let go of himself.
Yin Xiaoli sent another message to Muxianxi, because Muxianxi hadn’t gotten off work, so she replied briefly with two words: [Overtime]
After Muzhenxi replied to her, she heard the colleagues in the office chatting about going to Lincheng University for spring recruitment this year. I wonder if I can attract some fresh blood this year. Are there any handsome guys and pretty girls among the incoming batch of interns?
When it comes to this topic, as the number one fan of Wooden Pillow Creek, Corgi slapped Wooden Pillow Creek flatteringly: “If we say that our company’s Si Hua should be the boss.”
The rest of the people agreed, and there was no objection.
Muzhenxi said, “Huan Sihua, did you make up the words? Why don’t you say loofah?”
Corgi girl: “Hahahaha.”
Mu Zhenxi lowered his face: “Hurry up to work, I know that I have to work overtime and have time to chat.”
When I used to work in a small company, because of the shortage of manpower, if Muzhenxi was not busy during the school recruitment, I would also work as a part-time HR to recruit at Lincheng University. Now the company will definitely not need her.
A thought flashed through Muzhenxi’s mind. If she was in the old company, she would probably go to Lincheng University to meet Xiao Jin by chance. But just thought about it for a while, she is very happy working in the current company.
Who would have thought that a few days later, she would have such an opportunity.
Muzhenxi picked up the internal call: “Mr. Zhang.”
The art director said, “You come to my office.”
Muzhenxi locked the computer screen, stood up, stretched out his clothes, walked to the director’s office, and knocked on the glass door. Zhang Hanxia pressed the microphone and said, “Please come in.”
She motioned for Wooden Pillow Creek to sit on the sofa.
The assistant brought a cup of warm water to Wooden Pillow Creek.
Zhang Hanxia himself is also a good painter, with rich experience in projects, he has climbed from the original painter to the position of the director step by step. She is five or six years older than Wooden Pillow Creek. She had some thoughts on Wooden Pillow Creek before, but was cut off in time by Wooden Pillow Creek. She is usually friendly and gentle with everyone. She has a good reputation and good business. serve her.
Zhang Hanxia’s side should be a bit tricky, and it won’t be resolved in a while. At the end, he made an appointment with the other party for an interview, and then hung up the phone and said to Muzhenxi, “I’m sorry for making you wait for a long time.”
Only half of the water in front of Wooden Pillow Creek was left. Hearing this, he smiled and said, “Where.”
Zhang Hanxia walked around the desk and sat on the sofa on the left side of Muxinxi, with his legs crossed in a relaxed manner.
She likes Wooden Pillow Stream, even if it has nothing to do with love, she still appreciates it and never hides it.
The assistant brought a cup of coffee and put it on the coffee table in front of Zhang Hanxia.
Muzhenxi said: “It’s okay, I just work a little more overtime, I’m used to it.”
Zhang Hanxia sighed, raised his eyebrows, picked up the coffee cup and blew the heat on it, took a sip, and said, “This spring recruiting intern, you see some good seedlings, you can pick them up. , share.”
Muzhenxi asked in amazement, “Is the Spring Recruitment over? So soon?”
Zhang Hanxia said: “Not yet, I will tell you in advance, lest you be distracted and ask others to grab it first.”
Wooden pillow creek chuckled: “Thank you, Mr. Zhang.”
She thought to herself, “No way. It wasn’t long before she joined in the last autumn recruit. The group was still in a mess, and there were not many people who even served her. How could you compete with other groups?”
Zhang Hanxia put down the coffee: “You…”
Wooden pillow brook smiled and looked straight: “You said.”
Zhang Hanxia waved his hand and said, “Don’t be so serious, I just have a question, it’s personal, you don’t have to answer it.”
Muzhenxi said, “Are you asking as a boss or as a friend?”
Zhang Hanxia said, “Friend.”
Wooden Pillow Creek smiled: “Okay, you can ask.”
Zhang Hanxia said inexplicably: “Why did you leave the last company? I remember that the project you were working on became a hit last year, with a monthly turnover of over one billion at its peak, which is an incredible success for a small company. You are one of them. The number one hero of the company, the company will not treat you badly anyway, if I were the boss, I would give you the company shares and hold the people firmly in their hands.”
Wooden Pillow Creek laughed: “Do you really want to hear the reason?”
Zhang Hanxia nodded seriously.
Wooden Pillow Creek looked into her eyes and answered her: “The idea is not compatible.”
Zhang Hanxia: “Huh?”
“No challenge, no satisfaction, no value.” Wooden Sleeper Creek said, “I want to make a real game, not the fast food that can’t bear to chew slowly as fast as this era. If you have followed the follow-up of this game We know that its lifespan is no more than a year at most, and even I can only watch it slowly wither and let it last for a while.”
For a person engaged in the game industry, every game from his own hands is a child of Wooden Pillow Creek, but some children are not based on love, but only because of money.
When Muzhenxi first entered the industry, it was because of a dream and a relatively naive idea. Later, it gradually became clear that people have a basic need level, and they can first meet material needs before they can pursue spiritual achievements.
The original project of Muzhenxi has changed to a new main beauty, and her departure has a greater impact than expected. Zhang Hanxia has paid attention to various games on the market, and naturally knows the current situation of this one. There is no wooden pillow in the small company, and the new expansion packs released by the game have been scolded very badly. People who follow the trend come and go quickly, and soon the white land is really clean.
Zhang Hanxia suddenly had a new question: “Do you think the project at hand is valuable?”
Muzhenxi tilted his head and asked, “The truth?”
“The truth.” Zhang Hanxia nodded, she was obviously Muzhenxi’s boss, but she was nervous about Muzhenxi’s answer for no reason.
Wooden Pillow Creek said, “Yes.”
Zhang Hanxia was suspicious: “Really?”
Muzhenxi smiled sincerely: “Really, I’m very interested, and I really want to make it a success.” It’s just that the value is not that great, and Muzhenxi doesn’t plan to stay in this company forever. She has no nostalgia for the company, otherwise she would not have left at the last company. Anyway, she is alone, and she can come and go by herself.
When she makes the project go live successfully, and then thinks otherwise, maybe she will consider going abroad. Several of the colleagues she knew who had the pursuit of good games have all gone abroad.
A figure flashed across her mind, and Wooden Pillow Creek briefly became goddess for a second, although it seemed that she had a new bond now.
“By the way, Mr. Zhang,” said the wooden pillow, “can I go and see this year’s spring recruits in person? What kind of genius can I find if I can find a leak?”
Zhang Hanxia laughed at first, then returned to work and frowned, “Are you free?”
Wooden Pillow Creek tilted his head and hooked his lips: “Time is like a sponge, you can always squeeze it when you squeeze it.”
Zhang Hanxia joked: “It seems that you are still not busy enough.”
Wooden Pillow Creek folded his hands together and made a gesture of begging for mercy.
Zhang Hanxia waved his hand and approved: “You can contact HR, don’t delay your work.”
“Thank you, President Zhang.” Wooden pillow creek bowed slightly.
Zhang Hanxia: “It’s alright, you go back first.”
Muzhenxi closed the office door and breathed a sigh of relief, which was an excuse to go to Lincheng University.
In fact, if she wants to go to Lincheng University, she can go directly. No one stipulates that it is Xiao Jin’s territory, and she cannot appear. It’s just that Xiao Jin has been between normal and abnormal recently, which makes Muzhenxi very incomprehensible. She doesn’t want to make something wrong with her, making Xiao Jin more abnormal.
Forest City University.
In mid-March, the atmosphere of graduation gradually emerged after the school started. Especially this Wednesday and Thursday will hold a large-scale campus spring job fair. The fresh graduates who have not yet found a job in their senior year have all plunged into it. The pace can be seen, one by one comes and goes like the wind, and several people gather together to talk about resumes and jobs.
In the cafeteria, during lunch time, several students discussed while eating.
“I want to go to ag. I missed the last autumn recruit. This time I absolutely have to send my resume.”
“I want to go too, but they are very strict in recruiting people. When we recruited in the last autumn, all of our dormitories were swiped, and not even a single one entered the interview.”
“…You said that I suddenly lost confidence.”
“Hahahaha you can, come on.”
“If you can’t go to a big company, you can go to a small company, right? Accumulate experience.”
“I heard that when a small company goes in, it’s just doing chores, or a large company has a more detailed division of labor and can learn something.”
“Now it’s the company that chooses us, not us. It’s good to find a job.”
“Wow, you’re so desperate when you say that, in case big companies and small companies can’t get in…”
“awful.”
Xiao Jin, who heard the familiar name of the company, paused his meal. It was not until the group of students imagined the life of being a social animal in the future that Xiao Jin moved his chopsticks again and asked the colleague in front of him, “Is there a campus job fair in these two days?”
The colleague said without thinking: “Yes, in the next two days, I heard that there are quite a lot of companies coming.”
Xiao Jin asked, “What kind of companies are there?”
The colleague said: “…How do I know? I’m not a student.” She suddenly looked at Xiao Jin with complicated eyes, “Do you want to change jobs?”
Xiao Jin almost choked and said, “No, I’m just curious.” She found a random reason and said, “I haven’t seen what the school recruits in China look like.”
The colleague dismantled her in a second: “Why didn’t I see you so enthusiastic last autumn?”
Xiao Jin said calmly: “I just joined the job at that time, and I am not familiar with the school, so I don’t have the time to manage the autumn recruitment.”
The colleague was dubious and said, “Okay, but there’s nothing fun about recruiting on campus. It’s just a bunch of companies, each with a booth. Students can submit their resumes if they are interested. Have you been to the talent market?”
Xiao Jin shook his head.
The colleague said, “If you’re curious, go take a look tomorrow, because you don’t have class in the morning.”
Xiao Jin made a low “um”, lowered his head and took a sip of soup, lost in thought.
On occasions like job fairs, Wooden Sleeper Stream shouldn’t come, right? She is not HR.
Xiao Jin hadn’t adjusted her mentality yet. She didn’t know how to face Muzhenxi. She didn’t dare to disappear suddenly. She was afraid that Muzhenxi would think too much, so she went to the cafe. Everyone was in a very chaotic state, and Wooden Sleeper Creek must have discovered her abnormality.
What she couldn’t even believe was that she couldn’t adjust for so long.
Wooden pillow stream greeted hr in advance, met at school, and got in touch on the phone. On Wednesday morning, she dressed up in the mirror and drove to Lynchburg University.
It was a while away from class, and Muzhenxi knew that Xiao Jin had no classes in the morning, so instead of going around the teaching building where she was in class, she wandered aimlessly at the school. The branches spit out new shoots, and the wooden pillow stream wore a bright light blue windbreaker and was tall, and walking on the campus became a beautiful landscape.
The campus recruitment fair was all day long, and Muzhenxi planned to meet Xiao Jin in the afternoon, but she would come sooner than she thought.
When she arrived at the venue, other people in the company had already arranged the booth. Seeing her coming, they moved a chair to the back of the table and raised their hands to greet her, “Sister Mu, here.”
Wooden Pillow Creek put his hands in his pockets and walked over with his long legs.
“Does it start at nine o’clock?”
“Yes.”
Muzhenxi raised his wrist and looked at his watch. There were ten minutes left, and the stadium was already crowded with students, who had to check their documents and queued up to enter.
She sat down on the chair behind the desk, side by side with HR, and lazily flipped through the brochures provided to the students in front of her, which were all about corporate culture and philosophy, as well as brilliant achievements.
In fact, without these, just putting out the company name, the students who come to apply for a job are like crucian carp crossing the river.
In a short time, the resumes pressed on the table accumulated a thick stack. Although Muxinxi came here for other reasons, it was not all for Xiao Jin. She looked at every resume handed to her at the time. If she had outstanding work experience and project internship experience, she would ask a few more questions, such as specific projects and what she was responsible for in the team. There are two What she was willing to learn later, a boy and a girl, due to time constraints, only drew two marks on the resume and put them on the other side.
Finally, there was a gap, and HR chatted with her about the two resumes she had drawn: “Do you like these two? The conditions are not particularly good.”
Mu Zhenxi supported his cheek with one hand, and said lazily, “I can’t do anything if there is no one.”
hr said, “You should have come here in the autumn, but now it’s almost the same.” She got Zhang Hanxia’s word of mouth and knew that Muzhenxi was picking someone for her group.
Wooden pillow creek: “It’s okay, I’ll take a look again, no hurry.”
Hearing that her voice was a little hoarse, hr thoughtfully poured her a glass of water and joked, “Our booth is already popular, and you are so beautifully dressed that more than half of the students want to come see you and talk to you even if they don’t want to apply for a job. .”
Wooden Pillow Creek smiled. She leaned back in the seat and said, “I’m a little tired. I’ll play with my phone for a while. You can take a look later.”
hr: “Okay, take a break.”
Wooden pillow Brook brushed the phone, and it didn’t take long for a familiar cold voice to fall in front of him: “Hello.”
hr: “Hello, classmate.”
Wooden Pillow Creek swiped his fingers on the screen and raised his eyes.
hr frowned at this beautiful woman who was not dressed like a classmate at all: “You…”
Wooden pillow creek pressed his colleague hr’s shoulder with one hand, leaned forward, and said, “find me.”
hr looked at Wooden Pillow Creek, then at the woman in front of him, and silently closed his mouth.
Mu Zhenxi smiled slightly and spread a hand towards Xiao Jin: “This classmate, where’s your resume?”
Xiao Jin said, “No.”
Wooden pillow Xi Xin said: These days are capricious, sometimes pitiful like a puppy that wants to be rubbed and hugged, and now like an iceberg that refuses people thousands of miles away, but now it’s hardened.
Muzhenxi’s official tone: “I’m sorry, we are a job fair here. If you don’t have a resume, please don’t block the students behind you, okay?”
Xiao Jin stood still, standing in front of her, looking straight at her with a pair of clear eyes: “Can we have a meal together?”
The author has something to say: Small Theater:
Xiao Jin: Shall we have dinner together?
Wooden Pillow Creek (shaking his head firmly): Don’t eat it!
Xiao Jin’s clothes gradually disappeared.
Wooden Pillow Stream (stunned and dazzled): Eat! Eat what you say you want!
