Love is like a dream

I can't stay in my hometown because I don't like the backward, ignorant and feudal thinking of the villagers. Ask that, you can ask anything, the most troublesome question is: Have you got a date?How much money do you earn in January?

I know they care, or at least are willing to chat with me, but they never realize that this is personal privacy. On the fifth day, I booked a ticket back to Beijing. Before I left, my second aunt told me that it was a custom in my family not to go out on the fifth day, and going out was unlucky.

I got on the bus early in the morning, and it was already evening when I arrived in Beijing. I ate something casually. I saw a Weibo reposted by Xiao Zhen on Weibo. It was her sister, Ms. E, who said: Cherish everything that is good to you people!She forwarded the response: Good!I know!I'll try my best!I will love bravely!

My little Zhen, how brave and hard are you going to do?Could this sentence be said to me?

Throughout January, she spent her limited vacation time with her family, eating, shopping, watching movies, and even visited Sun Moon Lake. I don’t know if she was ever asked by her elders about when she would get married. I think there must be, I don't know how she will respond, will she also be angry like me and play haha ​​on the outside?

In a blink of an eye, the new year is coming to an end, and it's February, and she starts to get busy again. I think, maybe the wish to see her will come to nothing again, right?I don't know when I will see you next time. I have carefully prepared a New Year's gift for her. I don't know when she will see it.

Similarly, in the new year, my work will be even busier. On the first day after the new year, the editor-in-chief, Ms. Su, called me and the editor-in-chief to the office. It’s a good start, and now I’m planning a new topic. As I mentioned to the editor-in-chief before, I’m looking for manuscripts, contacting authors, negotiating with websites, and also focusing on design, proofreading, and distribution. , I really feel that the progress is so slow that one person can no longer handle it.

The editor-in-chief mentioned to Ms. Su that two more people will be sent over to work on this project. When I came to the office today, Ms. Su meant to set up a new special editorial group under our editorial office, specializing in the planning of works on Internet literature. I will be the team leader of this group, and at the same time, I will be proposed to be the deputy editor of the fourth editorial group.

Me: "Editor-in-Chief, I have only been in the company for a year. Although I have made some small achievements, I still have a lot to learn. Am I..."

Ms. Su: "Molly, in fact, I have long seen that you have potential. Last year's results have also confirmed your ability. If you are given a chance, you should try boldly. Don't be afraid of failing or making mistakes. Every newcomer in the workplace has It’s growing that way by taking on bigger responsibilities.”

At this time, the editor-in-chief also said: "Yes, Molly, you have worked here for a year, and I have witnessed your growth step by step. Now it is time to let you go and take some responsibilities on your own. I believe in your ability, go ahead and do it boldly.”

I am naturally very happy to get the affirmation and promotion from my boss, but more of it comes from my own pressure. In the past, I did the work of finding and submitting manuscripts, but most of the things that involved cross-departmental communication The editor-in-chief is responsible, and I will be responsible for the special editorial team in the future. I really feel a lot of pressure in my heart, because I heard that some senior employees in the company are difficult to deal with.

Ms. Su seemed to see that I was in a bit of a dilemma: "Molly, if you have any difficulties related to departmental communication in the future, please come to me and I will help you solve it."

I took a look at Ms. Su, who was exuding the aura of a strong woman, and felt as if I had taken a reassurance, so I nodded at her: "Okay, I will."

On the same day, the new appointment document was issued from the editor-in-chief's office. I became the deputy editor-in-chief of the newly established fourth editorial office. In the publishing business of the work, at the same time, two editors were allocated from other editorial groups to cooperate with my work.

Once I had a helper, I felt that the work was much more efficient. I divided the responsibilities of the two existing editors, and each was responsible for looking at several well-known websites to find manuscripts, contacting the author for preliminary communication, and handing over after confirming the intention. Come to me for approval before signing the contract. If there are some well-known authors who are not easy to talk about, I will talk about it myself. Have a sense of trust.

When I get busy, it always passes quickly. In a blink of an eye, it is already the middle of the month. I checked the time. Today is February 2, and Valentine’s Day will be two days away. We are all busy, and we haven’t contacted for a few days. Will my little Zhen have time to spend with me on Valentine's Day?

On the morning of the 13th, I happened to enter the company with Ms. Su, and I said, "Hello, editor-in-chief."

Miss Su smiled: "Molly, you always address me so bluntly, can't you call me by my name?"

Me: "That...not so good, in the company..."

Miss Su: "Then call in private."

Me: "Ah, this...you are my leader, it's not good for me to call you by your name."

Ms. Su: "This is an order. Call me by my name when you are not in the company - Ruolan, Su Ruolan, come on, call me first."

Me: "Ruo... Ruolan."

After yelling, I actually blushed. What on earth is this annoying Miss Su going to do?You must embarrass a shy and inarticulate girl like me!

I saw Miss Su smiled happily: "That's right, how kind, by the way, tomorrow is Valentine's Day, have you thought about how to spend it?"

I'm embarrassed, my little Zhen is thousands of miles away, who can I go to for Valentine's Day with?

Me: "It's nothing easy, and I don't have a lover."

Miss Su: "I'm just like you, and I don't have a lover. Why don't you have a meal with me tomorrow, so that you won't be lonely and bored."

I smiled: "Do you want to pretend to be my lover, or do you want me to pretend to be your lover?"

Miss Su also smiled: "It's all good."

Me: "That can't be done..."

Miss Su: "Why, I'm not worthy to be your lover."

Me: "No, no, if you say you don't deserve it, I'm the one who doesn't deserve it! Oh, it's getting darker and darker. I mean, I'm not interested in Valentine's Day, and I don't plan to celebrate it."

Miss Su: "Molly, you have someone in your heart, right?"

In order to get rid of this embarrassing conversation earlier, I had no choice but to nod. Anyway, she won't know if it's true or not: "Hmm..."

Miss Su: "Then does he have you in his heart?"

I nodded.

Miss Su: "Then why didn't he spend Valentine's Day with you?"

Me: "She's not in Beijing..."

Miss Su: "Oh..."

Me: "I'm going back to work, goodbye editor-in-chief."

Miss Su: "You called me the editor-in-chief again!"

I ignored her, punched out the card and trotted back to my work station.
