don't ask about those years

Walking into the elevator with tired steps, Lin Fan couldn't remember how many nights in a row he had worked overtime. After many days of continuous high-intensity work, even though he stepped out of the work station, what was running in front of him was still a string of data.Through the polished mirror in the elevator, Lin Fan felt that his pale and gray complexion could instantly transport him to the shooting scene of a horror movie.Eyes subconsciously watching the elevator descending rapidly, the only question left to think about is... where to park the car in the morning.

The elevator stopped on the 16th floor, and Manager Xiao from the sales department of their company walked in.

Manager Xiao has been working in the company for more than ten years, and has already mixed into the middle of the company. Their company is now a leader in the e-commerce industry. This position is inseparable from his own sales ability and the contacts he has accumulated over the years.

Lin Fan slightly straightened his body leaning on the elevator, pulled himself together and greeted Manager Xiao: "Manager Xiao just got off work, too?"

Manager Xiao walked into the elevator and smiled wryly at Lin Fan: "Yeah, I just finalized several supplier policies, and I've been busy for a few nights..." Looking back at Lin Fan, he joked, "You're early enough today, It's not even 12 o'clock yet!"

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly, "The model test is all right today, and I can finally go to bed and sleep."

Manager Xiao continued: "That's fine. Among the newcomers you have come in these past few years, you are the best kid. You work quickly without delay, and you are promoted the fastest. If your manager doesn't mention who you are picking!"

Lin Fan smiled noncommittally. He works in the company's Operational Analysis Department, which mainly collects big data from the Internet and cooperates with marketing to make the most accurate data push. He has been in this company for 6 years, and was promoted by their department manager last year. The position of the team leader.

"I have raised a lot of sales tasks for this e-commerce festival, and I can relax after I have been busy for a while..." Manager Xiao said, and the elevator also stopped at B2. After the two greeted each other, they went to each other. Walked in different directions to the parking lot.

After searching around for half a circle, Lin Fan finally found his Lexus in a corner parking space, got in the car and didn't start it right away, but opened the window and lit a cigarette.

Lin Fan doesn't smoke much, and the data mining work itself is enough for his body. He doesn't like to use excessive cigarettes and coffee to accelerate the aging of his body's functions, so he will drink some tea or chew gum when he is sleepy at night. Swimming whenever he can, making the 27-year-old look like a fresh out of college.

Smoking a cigarette now just allows him to relax his tense muscles and nerves before driving home, although it is mixed with the unique smell of rubber in the underground parking lot...

I bought this car a few years ago, not because of anything else, but the combination of gasoline and electricity is more environmentally friendly. It sounds a bit hypocritical, but Lin Fan can use reusable bags instead of plastic bags when he goes out.

After smoking, Lin Fan drove the car out of the parking lot to his home on the East Fourth Ring Road. There was no traffic jam at night, and he arrived within 20 minutes.

Thinking that he could finally sleep in on the weekend tomorrow, get up and exercise and relax to enjoy the rare weekends in recent days, Lin Fan's steps towards home became easier.

At this time the phone rang, Lin Fan stopped and frowned and took out the phone, thinking that it was their manager who asked him to work overtime tomorrow morning.It wasn't until he saw the familiar name on the screen that he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and said, "What time is it, don't come to me for drinking."

On the other side of the phone, Lu Feng laughed a few times and said, "I will definitely drink if I ask you for a drink. Besides, you didn't say yes many times when I asked you for a drink!"

"That's because you're too good at picking your time, so you come to me when I'm working overtime." Lin Fan continued walking and said with a smile, "Tell me, what's going on in the middle of the night and you can't hold it back anymore."

Lu Feng seemed to be a little noisy at the other end, as if he had found a quieter corner before continuing: "The day after tomorrow, I will be in charge of organizing the alumni gathering of our department. Isn't this the convener these days? How about it?" ? Do you have time to come over?"

"Sunday? It should be fine. If I don't work overtime, I'll go there. Do you need to call so late for this matter?"

Lu Feng seemed to hesitate for a while before saying: "That's right, what, Qi Tian seems to have come back a while ago, I don't know if he will come this time..."

Lu Feng's sudden words made Lin Fan stop instantly. His brain seemed to be in a panic, and he didn't know how to adjust the various parts of his body to respond to these words. Blunted: "Oh, I'm back..."

Seeing that Lin Fan didn't say anything, Lu Feng continued to follow what he said just now: "Well, I just found out, it seems like I've only been back for half a month, and I heard from people at Zhang Luo's party that this kid is now He's such a jerk. He said that in the past few years, his overseas business expansion has been quite successful, and he has continuously injected blood into the domestic business. That's why the Qi family, which is cooperating internally and externally, has developed so fast in the past two years. No, these people want to attract him when he comes back this time. Did he come to Juju, probably thinking that he can also develop a relationship with the Qi family in the future."

As if thinking of something, he went on to say: "It's amazing what you said. It seemed that this kid didn't do anything serious in school except fighting and causing trouble. I didn't expect that he was quite good at doing business. It's really hard to imagine. How can he look like a business elite..."

Speaking of this, Lu Feng stopped, coughed lightly as if he felt that he had said too much, and then asked again after a pause, "Then you, are you coming on Sunday?"

Lin Fan raised his head and looked at the sky. There was no smog today. The border of the moon can be seen clearly. It was the same when he first arrived in Beijing ten years ago. Although there are not as many stars as in his hometown, at least the sky is clean at night. Clear, not like it slowly changed later.

Pulling back his thoughts, Lin Fan continued to lift his footsteps, and said to the other end of the phone: "I'll see the situation first, and then I'll talk about it later." In fact, he had already made up his mind that he would not go.

Lu Feng probably guessed what he meant, and without going any further, he said, "Okay, as long as you are really busy, it's okay. Anyway, there are too many people this time, and there may not be a few people in our class who are noisy. If they insist on I called to get you here, and I told them to make up for them next time if you work overtime." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

Lin Fan has always been especially grateful to Lu Feng for being careless most of the time, but caring for his feelings at critical moments.Even during the most difficult time, he just stayed by his side, as long as Lin Fan didn't say anything, he didn't ask, but tried his best to make him stay alone, distract him with gossip and jokes, and He ran together to vent... After all, he didn't want to show it, and he still wanted to hide it from the closest people.

After returning home and putting the keys on the shoe rack, Lin Fan didn't rush to turn on the light, but leaned his back against the wall, closed his eyes and let himself rest for a while, before he let out a deep breath. After six years, he finally came back. .
