sinking in his peril

Xu Zhizhi lay on the bed, staring at the phone, in a daze, thinking for a long time, hesitating for a long time, finally couldn't help pressing a few buttons, trying to control her nervousness, and sent a very short and ordinary text message: I'm looking for you, you're not here, how is everything?
With a bang, the door was opened, and Bai Xiaohui came in with a head, and said in a somewhat deliberate tone: "Still struggling? Hee hee, I'm leaving, this girl is going to conquer the whole world." A man who makes this girl fall in love with me, let's see if I, Bai Xiaohui, or you, Xu Zhizhi, marry first?!"

Xu Zhizhi was shocked, sat up on the bed, her heart was beating in a panic, she stared at Xu Zhizhi, feeling extremely unreal, she heard the same "bang", the door was closed, and then she could hear the white Xiaohui opened the door of the living room, and then closed the door.

The room became quiet again, Xu Zhizhi lay down on the bed numbly, staring at her cell phone, hoping that there would be a text message reply until she fell asleep in a daze.

In the early morning, the rain was much lighter, but the temperature was much lower. Sang Xinrou walked into the office slowly, and saw Bai Xiyao was receiving hot water in front of the water dispenser. Jiang Ping was not there. As long as Jiang Ping was not there, everything would be fine. She sighed and greeted Bai Xiyao, "Morning."

Holding the cup, Bai Xiyao yawned lightly, as if she didn't sleep well, her face looked haggard, "Morning."

"Didn't sleep well?" Sang Xinrou looked at Bai Xiyao, "You look a little tired, what did you do last night?"

"It's okay." Bai Xiyao sat down at the table, yawned again, covered her mouth with her hands, feeling a little tired, "I stayed at grandma's house yesterday, and I chatted with grandma for a long time, and I rested late. So I didn't rest well. Are you busy today?"

"Busy," Sang Xinrou sighed and said, "Jiang Ping has a full schedule now. She is now the master's celebrity. She says what the director believes. I let her make her head spin every day. And Go to the old address?"

"Not yesterday." Bai Xiyao took a sip of coffee to make her spirit look better, then lowered her head to busy with the work at hand, but in front of her eyes were all those exquisite patterns. She drew all night last night, and now her mind Except for those patterns, there is nothing in it. Fortunately, grandma helped to find the red paper that Dad said, which is not much different from the paper used for lanterns.It's really strange that grandma's house still has such precious things, "Are you still working on this?"

"Yes." Sang Xinrou stared at Bai Xiyao, and said softly, "Xi Yao, I dreamed about your brother last night, did I fall in love with your brother?"

Bai Xiyao was stunned, then smiled, and said softly: "I don't know, but Xinrou, if I were you, I wouldn't like Tao Zi, he is really not suitable to be a husband, he is too free and loose."

"It's unreasonable to like someone." Sang Xinrou sighed and said, "I can't help it. I didn't know who I was when I first saw your brother. Every day, I see his handsome image dangling in front of me. Did you know? Xi Yao, I'm losing weight—”

"Losing weight?" Bai Xiyao looked at Sang Xinrou, indeed, she seemed to have lost some weight, "Are you losing weight? But, you are not too fat, and you look cute. If you lose weight, you don't seem to be too thin It looks like you."

Sang Xinrou smiled and said: "No way, I have set a standard for myself now, that is, what kind of girl your brother should like, then what kind of girl I will be, he should like thin Yes, slim, sexy woman?"

"I don't know." Bai Xiyao shook her head.

While the two were talking, Jiang Ping came in from the outside, holding a lot of documents in her hand, with a serious expression, glanced at Bai Xiyao and Sang Xinrou who were talking, walked over quietly, without saying a word, Sitting down in front of his seat, he immediately started working.

"She is such a strange girl." Sang Xinrou said softly, "It looks very weak, but if you see her working and her appearance in front of Director Gao, you will not believe that she will It's the quiet Jiang Ping in front of me."

The morning passed quietly at work, and at noon, when she was off work, Bai Xiyao asked Sang Xinrou to have dinner at a small home-cooked restaurant. The two of them came out of the office together, and met Gao Yuan who also came out of her own office.

"Let's go eat." Gao Yuan asked calmly. She didn't seem to have a good rest, and her complexion didn't look too good. Before the two answered, her mobile phone rang suddenly. She took out the phone and looked at it. Ignoring Sang Xinruan and Bai Xiyao, she answered the phone while walking, and could vaguely hear the voice very annoyed, "What are you doing calling at this time? How is my father? ——Okay, don't explain any more! I—" With her footsteps, her voice became farther and farther away, until she couldn't hear it in the end.

Going out of the gate of the unit, I saw a car parked in front of the door, Bai Xiyao recognized it, it seemed to be Mou Jiamu's car, what is he doing here?
"Xiyao——" Seeing Bai Xiyao coming out, Mou Jiamu immediately got out of the car, greeted Bai Xiyao with a smile on his face, "I'm off work, do you have time? Let's have dinner together? Eh, this isn't you colleagues? Together, we had dinner together last time."

Sang Xinrou nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, you are sister Zhizhi's boyfriend."

Mu Jiamu smiled and said heartily: "Yes, you have a good memory. I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat. You can choose a place as you like."

"I want to go to Yinxiang Restaurant—" Sang Xinrou said immediately.

"Okay!" Mu Jiamu said cheerfully.

"No!" Bai Xiyao expressed her refusal almost at the same time. Now, she is a little afraid of where to go. That person named Sima makes her a little afraid to see him. He can easily destroy all her self-esteem and peace. , His treatment made her contradictory, she just wanted to finish the lantern and return it to him, so she could feel at ease. "Let's go to the home-cooked restaurant, which is closer to the unit."

Sang Xinrou glanced at Bai Xiyao, and saw a trace of fear and conflict in Bai Xiyao's eyes strangely, what's wrong with her? "Okay, yes, but it's too cheap, Boss Mou. If you go there, the food isn't bad, but it's too cheap, so it's not considered a treat for you." Sang Xinrou turned to look at Mou Jiamu, and said jokingly, "Just As a simple meal, we invite you to do the same."

"Okay, okay, since Xi Yao said to go there, we will go there, it is not considered a treat, even if we have a meal together, how about we go to Yinxiang Restaurant next time?" Mou Jiamu said with a smile, his whole body It reveals a sense of sunshine of movement.

Seeing the three people coming in, the little old man, or the little boss as everyone used to call them, greeted them with a smile, without saying much, and immediately went into the kitchen to prepare a few meals that Bai Xiyao and Sang Xinrou had always liked to eat .

"Is your sister okay?" Mou Jiamu asked Bai Xiyao with concern while pouring water as soon as he sat down, "That's right, I ran into my dad when I came back yesterday, and he asked me about your sister and me. So, My father and your mother used to be neighbors, and it was a surprise to meet again, it must have been more than [-] years."

Bai Xiyao nodded, "I have met Uncle Mou, he is quite kind."

"Did something happen to your sister?" Mou Jiamu still focused on Xu Zhizhi, "Hearing her voice on the phone was very upset, did you encounter any problems at work?"

Bai Xiyao shook her head, a little hesitant, not knowing how to tell Mou Jiamu, or what happened to Xu Zhizhi.Since she joined the work, this is the first time I saw her irritated like that, "I don't know too well, but if it's about work, it shouldn't matter, my sister should be able to handle it comfortably at work .”
