in the center of the universe

Zhuang Baixin put his fingers on the keyboard and didn't type a word for a long time.Sighing, he closed the computer.Find an excuse to sneak out and find an ex-colleague for dinner.

"You come to me for dinner every day, have no work to do? Or will you be fired?" Waiting for the barbecue, the colleague threw peanuts into his mouth.

"I don't want to work." Zhuang Baixin poured a glass of beer and drank half of it first.

Chen Jing originally pointed out that she could come up with something, but who would have thought that she would be uncharacteristically negative.He was so angry that he directly called the roll call at the meeting: "When you are not allowed to check, you insist on checking, but now you can check and you don't want to move, what are you going to do, Miss?"

"I want to ask you that too, what are you going to do? Isn't it you who is not convinced that Liu Yang insists on making big news?" The former colleague poked her sore spot unceremoniously.

"What's the big news?" Zhuang Baixin asked, "I don't know now." She drank half a glass again, "International disputes count, the end of the world counts, and alien invasion counts, right?"

Colleagues laughed and listened to her serious nonsense.

"Anti-corruption counts, Guan Jingyuan and Guanda Group count, but a woman next to Guan Jingyuan has been hidden for a lifetime and disappeared quietly. Her daughter disappeared quietly like this. This is not big news. It's not news—" Zhuang Baixin suddenly looked up, "No, it's not a big deal, right."

"What are you struggling with? News value? Didn't the teacher teach you how to judge when you were studying?"

Zhuang Baixin shook his head slowly, "I find it scary that I used to naturally think that this is really not a big news, at least not a big news that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Guanda Group - but why do I think so? ?Why has our society decided it won't be big news?"

The colleague thought for a while, then spread his hands: "So what are you going to do, suddenly wake up, and speak out for those women who have disappeared in the long river of history?"

"I'm not awakened, I'm introspecting." Zhuang Baixin sandwiched the freshly served veal steak into the grill pan and pressed it desperately, a puff of oily smoke rose in front of his eyes: "Not only women, but also everything that I once turned a blind eye to. "

"Sister, you're not as good at grilling meat as you are." Snatching back the clip from her hand, the colleague said, "Then you don't plan to follow up with Guan Jingyuan and Guan Da?"

Zhuang Baixin himself was also a little at a loss: "To be honest, I haven't figured out what to do next, but whether it's as a reporter, as a citizen, or as a woman, I now have something more I want to figure out."

The colleague nodded, turned the steak meat over, cut it with scissors when it was almost grilled, and put it on her plate: "A senior once told me that he always regarded himself as a lotus flower that is not stained by mud. " Zhuang Baixin chuckled, "Who is your fan, senior?"

The colleague also smiled slightly: "I also had the same reaction at the time, and then he said: The point is not the lotus, but the mud. The most terrifying things are often the things we take for granted, and even the things that nourish us."

Zhuang Baixin raised his eyebrows slightly, and put the piece of meat into his mouth.

"So Baixin, are you ready?"

The lawyer commissioned by Guan Jingyuan came the next day.Talked with Guan Zang and Ma Qianjia in the room for two hours and signed a bunch of documents.Fearing that reporters would find them, they were transferred to a private hospital on the advice of a lawyer, and moved there secretly.

"Severed ties with you?" Yan Keji came here just to eat. While visiting the new ward, he ate plums, big foreign plums, as big as a fist. "Is there any money to buy me a mink?"

Ma Qianjia looked at him with good eyes, but he choked back: "What are you looking at? Your Guanzang promised me!"

Guan Zang smiled and replied: "Yes, we will go buy it in a while."

"If you spend so much money, the Guandas will be gone!" Ma Qianjia couldn't understand Yan Keji asking for money when he was free, "30 is enough to buy a few minks? Let Guanzang spend money! Are you going to spend money?" Let Guan Zang take care of him for the rest of his life?"

"No way?" Yan Keji was not angry, but smiled, "I have this ability, if you have the ability, can you tell him not to care about me?" He gnawed the plums until his hands were full of juice.

"Guan Zang is going abroad soon!"

Yan Keji stopped talking and asked, "When?"

Guan Zang took his coat and put it on, and interrupted when Ma Qian's family was about to answer: "Either we go together, or we don't—go shopping for clothes, Keji?"

Ma Qianjia looked at him and sighed, and stopped talking.Yan Keji finished eating the plums in a few mouthfuls, washed his hands, put a 49 yuan Lei Feng hat on his flat head to keep warm, and turned to Ma Qianjia and said, "Since we are leaving, why don't you spend more? Don't worry. Come on Ma, I’ll let him buy me all the underpants and turn them into furs!” After saying that, hahaha, he went out.

When I went out, my face sank, "If I don't have a long-distance relationship, I won't go abroad with you, don't be whimsical."

"Then I won't go, and I don't think it's necessary."

Guan Jingyuan hopes that Guan Zang will stay away from this turmoil, and leave as soon as he can, even if Ma Qian's family is in a wheelchair.But no matter whether Guanzang went or not, where he went, and what he did in the future, Guanda Group and any of its subsidiaries no longer have a dime relationship with him.

No risk, no benefit.

"Does your Guanda have a market value of tens of billions?"

Guan Zang shook his head: "I don't understand."

Yan Ke sucked his teeth: "Even if your grandfather collapses, Guan Da won't be able to collapse for a while, let's count five billion, my God, you don't want it anymore?"

"It's nothing compared to the life I want."

Yan Keji stared at him for a while without saying a word: "I really admire that you can say such a thing, and I want to say it once - your grandfather is also a character, so he can still leave money for you."

"Because he loves me, his only grandson, his poor daughter who died young, and even his crazy grandmother—just in his own way." Guan Zang said flatly, "He was never afraid of death, I'm not afraid of me either. I'm afraid of being kicked out of the center that I spent a lifetime trying to get close to. No matter who I kill, even himself, he will help me cover it up. My grandfather has never regretted it in his life, only angry that we didn't I understand his hard work and dedication. If it wasn't for this time—" Guan Zang paused, then smiled again, "he will never understand that the relationship between our grandparents and grandchildren can never and will never be repaired."

Yan Keji didn't say anything.When he went outside, the wind was blowing towards his face with fine snow. He took a deep breath and said, "It's really cold. It's a good day to buy minks!"

This season, the streets are full of fur advertisements.Yan Keji swaggered into the well-known local Mrs. Hong Lan's fur shop, bought a coat that was ankle-length, and bought everything from hats to scarves, hand warmers, and small bags. Going home with Guan Zang, I found a bunch of skirts to try on.

Guan Zang sorted out his study materials, and Yan Keji held the lapel of his new coat tightly with both hands, as if he was reluctant to take it off, walked over and looked at it twice: "Are you going to do this in the future? Is it true?" interest?"

"Yes." Guan Zang looked at him sideways, "Anyway, I don't need to make money, so I can learn whatever I want."

Yan Keji suddenly smiled and said, "Do you know how much other people envy you, saying that you don't know how many lifetimes you have been lucky enough to have a good pregnancy, and you were born to be at the top of the pyramid!"

Guan Zang giggled happily, and asked, "Is Keji also envious?"

"Envious!" Yan Keji raised his leg, sat on Guan Zang's lap, and put his hands on his shoulders. "I envy you that you can find someone like me!"

As soon as the hand was loosened, the placket was opened, and the small heart tied with a black leather rope around his neck made his naked body white and shiny.
