The falling rain was deserted, and the clouds and mist were lingering in the distance.
The misty rain in Jiangnan, once it starts, seems to never stop.
The white chrysanthemum in the tea cup floats on the water and gradually sinks.
Wen Baijing rubbed the tea cup with his fingers and focused on the white chrysanthemum in the cup.
"Ye Zhenzhen, visiting the ancient town at night is more artistic. The ancient houses facing the water on both sides are lit up, and their shadows are reflected in the green water. It is dim in the middle of the night, and the warm lights echo the night. The ancient moon on the riverside According to today's people."
"Also, there are undeveloped streets and alleys nearby, with white walls and blue tiles, and many people living near the water; and..."
Ye Zhen Zhen's eyes were clear and she said with a smile, "It has always been here."
Wen Baijing smiled happily, and the two of them prepared to get up and return.
There is a long string of red lanterns in front of the tea shop, swinging in the cool breeze and cold rain.
Walking in the rain alley of Jiangnan holding oil-paper umbrellas, the two of them were dressed in white, their backs gradually blending into the azure haze.
Ye Zhenzhen squatted beside the green belt, holding a bent branch in his hand and carefully digging a hole. The continuous rain soaked the land thoroughly, and the wet soil that had just been dug up was not obedient and flowed down the small hole.
"Use this!" Wen Baijing found a piece of broken rubble from somewhere and handed it to Ye Zhenzhen.
She took the rubble and looked up at the man beside her. The man's eyes were as bright as the Milky Way, full of stars.
Her heart jumped inexplicably, and she quickly looked away, "Thank you."
She focused on digging the hole, and the man stood beside her and held an umbrella for her, and said in a warm voice: "It won't know anything after it dies."
Ye Zhenzhen's hands were covered with mud and she did not stop moving. She took out the sparrow from the packing box, held it in the palm of her hand, and slowly put it into the small box. pit.
"I can only find a burial place for it, and hope that it will be happy soon."
Wen Baijing moved the umbrella above her again, "Well, I hope it will reach bliss soon."
Looking up at the umbrella above her head, she felt a little sad. How long can this umbrella last for her? If you protect her from the rain once, she will look forward to the next time and then dream about it for the rest of her life.
Wen Baijing just saw her pity, happened to meet her, and protected her for a while. Thinking of this, the corners of her eyes felt a little sour. She was afraid of showing her emotions, so she lowered her head and lowered her eyes.
Seems to be aware of her loss.
"Ye Zhenzhen, I hope you are well." Wen Baijing reached out and touched her hair, "Did you know? You have a beautiful smile, the most beautiful smile I have ever seen."
She suddenly regretted not studying hard, regretting not having a good job, meeting excellent people, but not having the ability to match them.
If she were better, maybe...
She suppressed her sadness, raised her head and smiled brightly at him, "Is this a smile?? "
"Well...Ye Zhenzhen, let me tell you a secret. "Wen Baijing's eyes were shining like obsidian, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, "Your smile is your trump card. "
At five o'clock in the afternoon on weekends, the night club where Ye Zhenzhen worked was training for staff. No one was allowed to ask for leave.
The initiator was the person who had fought two days ago. What caused such a thing? No management can tolerate a challenge to the company's rules and regulations.
The lights in the hall are dark and the air is dull. A group of employees are standing neatly in the hall not far from the front desk.
The staff meeting was a headache. The leader looked angry and kept lecturing people. It was just that quarrels and fights were not conducive to unity and affected the company's reputation. They were afraid that everyone would be used to fighting to resolve work conflicts.
The leader made passionate speeches. , all the employees were being punished with their heads down, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
Finally, at 7 o'clock, the boss's grievances were almost gone, mainly because the boss finally waved his hand, and everyone was relieved. In one breath.
The employees complained as they walked, and the culprit escaped, while others were being scolded for no reason.
Everyone walked to the break room, and Ye Zhenzhen took advantage of the cashier's leisure to go there. Receive the tips from the previous two days.
Several people at the cashier were checking their accounts. When they heard Ye Zhenzhen announcing her name, they raised their heads to look at her. They kept looking her up and down. Uncomfortable.
One of them smiled and said: "You are Ye Zhenzhen! "
Another person said: "Ye Zhenzhen, the tip is 10,000 on Friday and 400 on Saturday. Sign and receive the money. "
Ye Zhenzhen was a little stunned. Ten thousand? She always thought it was a rumor spread by everyone. Is Wen Baijing crazy? Why didn't he say it?
"Ye Zhenzhen, hurry up. Sign it! We are still queuing up! "
The people in line behind her tapped her on the shoulder, and she quickly signed. After taking the money and taking two steps, the chatter started, and Ye Zhenzhen's ears were as hot as a red iron.
"This girl looks very innocent, but her methods are so high! ”
“You don’t know that people can’t be judged by their appearance! ”
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
“If you are good-looking, have a good figure, and are young, it is normal for people to like you...”
Ye Zhenzhen didn't want to hear this and hurried to the lounge. Standing at the door of the lounge, she didn't know which step to take first. She didn't want to stand in the center of public opinion, and she didn't want to live in front of others.
The lounge was still noisy, with the smell of makeup, perfume, cigarettes, and sweat mixed together. Ye Zhenzhen walked in breathlessly, avoiding the crowds of people, and locked the cash in. Cabinet.
The lounge was crowded, and she stood beside the nearly two-meter-high iron cabinet, not knowing where to put her feet.
Li Ling was sitting on the sofa chatting with her colleagues., waved to her, squeezed to the side, and moved a piece of ground, "Ye Zhenzhen, come and sit here."
She smiled at Li Ling, hesitated for a moment, "Thank you, Sister Li Ling. "He said and sat down.
Li Ling clapped her hand and said in a hearty voice, "What's this!"
Someone walked by them and accidentally stepped on Ye Zhenzhen's toes, she hurriedly Tuck your feet up to the base of the sofa.
Li Ling came close to her ear and lowered her voice, "Ye Zhenzhen, you have to seize the opportunity and take advantage of the guests to like you. Get as much as you can. There is no love here, there will always be girls. At the age of eighteen, after one crop is cut, another crop grows again..."
No flower will never wither and bloom forever. Once it blooms, it will grow beautiful. Smart people must seize their youth and pawn it in front of the beauty's mirror and flower tree.
Ye Zhenzhen understood what Li Ling meant. She widened her eyes and hurriedly explained:
"Sister Li Ling, I just want to go to work and make money. I don't want anything else."
Li Ling spoke earnestly and grabbed her arm, "Ye Zhenzhen, are you stupid? If you have a chance to get more, why don't you get it! The golden mountain is in front of you, if you don't dig it, someone else will dig it. ”
Everyone is like this, and those who are unique are out of place. Pretending to be aloof after entering this place is either stupid or not clear-headed.
Ye Zhenzhen felt suffocated in her heart. The oxygen was thin, making her chest tight and short of breath. "Sister Li Ling, thank you."
Li Ling was very confused, with a mysterious face, "You don't have a man." Friends?"
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head and waved her hands desperately.
With a smile on her face, Li Ling leaned close to her ear affectionately, "Zhenzhen! You don't know about my sister's situation. I'm not as good looking as you, and I'm older than you. It's hard to find a husband." Keep up the good work. I’m divorced and have to raise my own children. Next time your guest comes, can I come over and give you a tip? That guest is so rich, it’s just a word from you..."
Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a long time, her eyes were dull, and she raised the corner of her mouth into a faint smile.
Everything here is linked to interests, and seemingly well-meaning reminders are just exchanges.
Li Ling was still chattering in her ears, saying endless thoughtful words and sad words.
Ye Zhenzhen said she had to go to the bathroom and was able to get out.
In the water bar, several kinds of cheap red wine and foreign wine are placed on the wooden wine cabinet embedded in the wall; the half-person-high ice bucket is filled with ice cubes, constantly letting out cold air; the floor and bar counter The fruit cartons are filled with fruit cartons. Watermelon, cantaloupe, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers and other fruits are exuding fragrance. The staff are skillfully cutting, carving, and arranging the melons. Beer boxes of various brands are piled in the next compartment. The beer was cold;
The water room was filled with various cups, wine bottles, fruit plates and snack plates. The aunts, wearing long pink rubber gloves, kept picking up the cups from the sink and draining them., residual water dripped on the red hollow floor mat; several washing machines kept working, and white towels were tumbling back and forth; white smoke rose from the steam on the glass of the high-temperature disinfection cabinet;
The young men were busy in the box, starting from the water The aunt brought the washed cups from the room, wiped the cups, scraped the countertops, and cleaned;
The aunt in gray work clothes pushed the vacuum cleaner from one box to another, making a dull sound of "Woo-Woo". ;
There was a girl a few meters away in the corridor. She was talking on the phone to the mirror on the wall. She had a charming smile on her face and her voice was coquettish. She kept talking coquettishly to the phone and asked the guests if they would come tonight. , do you need to book a box?
In the security room, several walkie-talkies were thrown on the table. The security guards were wearing white shirts and black suits, busy smoking before going to work;
Several people at the cashier lowered their heads to check accounts and gave credit card tips to the service staff;
The intercom at the front desk kept ringing, xx booked a certain box, and xx ordered a bouquet of flowers to be delivered to xx's box;
In the leader's office, the boss and manager were drinking tea, lazily leaning on the backs of their chairs, listening to the voices coming from the intercom, and chatting.
As soon as Ye Zhenzhen walked into the bathroom, a strong smell of smoke wafted over. Many waiters who were heavy smokers often met in the restroom to smoke. Ye Zhenzhen choked on the smell of smoke and hurriedly exited the restroom.
The cleaning aunt pushed the cart and passed her, "Ah! You are Ye Zhenzhen!"
Ye Zhenzhen's pupils dilated instantly and she nodded stiffly.
An indescribable feeling of powerlessness filled her surroundings, surrounding her like mist in the mountains.
The aunt lit the sandalwood, twisted the towel, and pushed the trolley out of the bathroom.
The faint scent of sandalwood spreads, and the smoke floats thinly.
Standing at the door of the bathroom, Ye Zhenzhen was bumped on the shoulder by people going in and out. Someone kindly reminded her, "Hurry up if you have to go to the bathroom! We will be on guard soon!"
Waiting for Ye Zhen Zhen walked out of the bathroom, and the background music in the lobby was already playing. She walked towards the lobby step by step with heavy steps. A group of princesses also came out of the lounge, and everyone walked towards the lobby with their work boxes.
There is a glass wall in the lobby with a variety of foreign wines. The soft light directly above hits the wine rack, exuding a luxurious atmosphere. Royal Salute, Chivas Regal, Macallan whiskey; Martell, Hennessy, Remy Martin brandy; vodka; rum, etc., are neatly placed on the wine rack.
At 19:30, all the lights in the front hall and lobby were turned on as scheduled, shining brightly in every corner; the sound of music floated softly; and the huge water curtain and fountain in the distance were dancing in the sky. In the starlight, the sound of water is gurgling; the faint scent of incense lingers in the air-conditioning, refreshing the spleen with wisps of fragrance.
