wildfire in the heart

It was past six o'clock when I got home. I wanted to stay with Youyu for dinner, but she refused. She was afraid that the landlord would worry if she went back too late.

It was already dark at this time, and it would take at least half an hour for her to ride back to her place of residence.

"Why don't you take a taxi back, and I'll reimburse the fare for you." I saw her start to wear a coat, and I was worried that it would be unsafe to ride a bicycle in such a dark environment.

"It's okay, it's still early. This city is very safe, and there are still people riding bicycles on the road, so you don't have to worry." You Yu didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong with cycling back at this time.

If I were in China, I would not be worried at all. The streets are still full of people at this time, but in this city, there are very few people on the road at this time.

I felt terrible, I was distressed, and I blamed myself. I always didn't think long enough about things, and later regretted it.

I regret that I didn't think so much about her, and I decided not to do this in the future.

Even in such a safe country, I still think it is a sad thing for a girl to ride a bicycle in a sparsely populated night.

I stopped talking, watched You Yu get everything ready, opened the door and walked out silently.

I put on my coat and followed her to her bicycle. She smiled at me and said, "Miss An, go in, I'm leaving."

Seeing her stepping on the bicycle, waving at me, and riding the bicycle freely into the wind and snow, I was moved by her chicness, and felt like crying for no reason. I don't know when such a good girl will belong to me. I was anxious, but it was of no use to be anxious.

Back in the house, I waited with my mobile phone in my hand. Although I was very hungry, I had no appetite at all. It was not safe for you to get home, so I didn't want to do anything.

I just sat there quietly, waiting in a hurry for the time to pass, I thought that Yuyu might have ridden through the city center and was riding north along the path, her face must have been numb by the wind at this moment , but I hope she is warm.

Half an hour finally passed with difficulty. Why is this half an hour so long that I feel restless.

Guessing that she was about to arrive home, I quickly sent her a message: "Is it safe?"

I waited for several minutes before You Yu came back to me: "I just got home."

I wanted to say you go get something to eat, but I didn't, and I said, "Okay, see you next time."

She replied politely: "See you next time, Miss An."

I put down the phone, the boulder in my heart fell, and a sense of dissatisfaction rose. I always felt that there were many words and emotions that I couldn't express, and these words and emotions were stuck in my chest and I couldn't get rid of them.

I simply baked a quick-frozen pizza for dinner. I started to review the materials You Yu gave me, and then wrote an email to China. I told Lou Qin about today's progress and asked Lou Qin to make an appointment with the milk company to finish all this. I went upstairs to sleep.

At night, I dreamed of Youyu, and I dreamed that Youyu and I were standing at the door of the central library again, that was the place where we met for the first time.In the dream, Kasper did not appear, but You Yu told me that she had a boyfriend, and I was extremely regretful. Before You Yu left, I hugged her impulsively, and I said, what a pity, why didn't I meet you earlier, in the dream You Yu in Li gave me a very friendly hug and left.

When I woke up the next morning, I remembered this dream so clearly, as if it had actually happened.

That kind of regret is lingering in my heart, I think about this dream over and over again, I don't know what this dream is telling me, I just know that I don't want to leave any regrets, so I need to work harder.

The appointment time with the milk company was set on Thursday morning. I looked at Youyu's class schedule, and she happened to have no class. I asked her if she could go with me.

You Yu replied to me that it was her duty to do so.

With Youyu by my side, I was very excited on the way to the milk company. It's not that I haven't talked about business before, but this time I was particularly high-spirited because I came prepared and I wanted to perform well in front of Youyu.

I don't know when Yuyu will like me, but I know that I must seize every opportunity to impress her, so that the chances of me impressing her will increase.

When the appointed time came, You Yu and I came to the conference room where we met. We were greeted by a middle-aged man named Jens. He was in a suit and leather shoes, with a warm smile and a polite and firm handshake with me.

After You Yu and I sat down, Jens and I started to ask each other some questions. Jens's English was pretty good, and mine was not too bad, so we basically talked in English the whole time.In the process of communication, occasionally some L language expressions are not easy to understand, and Youyu will help us explain in time.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that whenever I spoke, You Yu would always look at my side face and listen carefully. This feeling made me more expressive.

The interview lasted almost an hour, and both parties had a very pleasant conversation. We all appreciate each other's communication skills, so trust was naturally established.

At the end, Jens stood up and shook our hands again. He praised: "Ms. An, Ms. You, it was a pleasure talking to you. You are very professional. I am looking forward to our long-term cooperation."

You Yu and I also stood up to shake hands with him, and I said firmly, "I look forward to our cooperation."

Saying goodbye to Jens and walking out of the milk company, Youyu and I were very excited. I was so excited that I didn’t know what to say. I wanted to say thank you to Youyu, but I didn’t say it. I just stared at Youyu. He clasped his hands tightly on his chest, and his tone was both relieved and full of joy: "Congratulations, Miss An. You are amazing!"

After hearing Youyu's words, I embraced her without hesitation and said, "Thank you."

You Yu thought it was a celebratory hug, so she hugged me back too, and said, "You're welcome, I deserve it."

Even so, I'm happy because I know that every moment we share strengthens our place in each other's hearts, and I firmly believe that I can get where I want to be.

When I left country L, I handed over the house key to You Yu, and in the pretense of asking her to go to the office to be on duty and clean every day, in fact, I wanted to give her a place where she could study and rest.

She lived so far from school that it would be nice to have somewhere in between.

Back in China, I often send messages to ask her if she has gone to work in the house, just like the boss checking the post. In fact, I am afraid that she will forget me, and I am also afraid that the connection between me and her will fade.

From time to time, I also asked her to buy some office supplies, and asked her to keep the account. I would always find some things for her to do. She thought that my business in country L was getting bigger and bigger, so she was very happy. Diligently performing the various small tasks I assigned to her.

Every time she finished shopping, I would ask her to take some photos of the items to show me to make sure she made the right purchase, but I just wanted to see things through her eyes.

I asked her to buy some plants to decorate the house, and she took photos of the newly bought green plants and sent them to me.

After buying in such a random manner, the entire first floor gradually has a breath of life. Youyu arranged the office area quite neatly, and I am very satisfied.

After sending messages to Youyu every day, I am in a particularly good mood.

Lou Qin saw that there was always a smile on the corner of my mouth, and couldn't help asking me: "Is Mr. An up to date?"

I hurriedly closed the corners of my mouth and said solemnly: "No."

Lou Qin is an honest person, and the wise Shu Ci would not ask such a question.

Once when Shu Ci came to my company, he took a look at me and asked, "Why, have you caught up?"

I replied a little unhappily: "Not yet."

Shu Ci said, "Stupid!"

I said: "You can't control it!" I want to stick to my own rhythm.

Shu Ci rolled my eyes and said, "You deserve it for being single for so many years."

"I'm happy!" Now that I have someone in my heart, I don't care about her cynicism.

Seeing that I was so confident now, Shu Ci knew it would be useless to stab me again, so she dragged me out for a drink, saying that she wanted to tell me her recent bad things.

I know that Shu Ci often treats me as an emotional trash can, but I will still go, I still have this kind of loyalty, after all these years of friendship.

"What's wrong with you?" Sitting at the bar, my tone didn't reflect my loyalty very well.

"Drink first." Shu Ci boldly took a big sip.

I thought to myself, it’s okay, I’m so drunk, I’ll listen to half of what you say, and don’t listen to half, so I’m not tired.

"Hong Youlian, she's a bastard!" After drinking almost, Shu Ci began to curse.

"Who is it?" I was a little confused, I was not familiar with this name.

"It's the one who texted you on New Year's Eve." Shu Ci helped me recall.

"Oh, her." I usually don't remember the name of Shu Ci's girlfriend, and it's useless if I do, she changes frequently, so why should I waste my energy, I asked Shu Ci, "What's wrong with her?"

"She's on two boats with one foot, and she also has a little girlfriend who is a sophomore in college. I don't know when she hooked up. I found out when I checked her phone." Shu Ci gritted her teeth.

I saw that although Shu Ci was angry, he didn't show any signs of injury, so I didn't pay much attention to it, so I casually said, "You're so smart that you capsized?"

"An Zhizhi, do you have a conscience?" Shu Ci gave me a sharp look.

The cold blade flew past my heart, and I quickly changed my words: "This red face is not human, let me see her once and I will beat her once, and I will beat her twice when I see her twice."

Shu Ci put down his wine glass, looked at me faintly, and asked, "You really beat her for me?"

I just want to have fun with my mouth. I have never beaten someone before, but Shu Ci asked, and I can't be cowardly. I tried to be a hero: "Hit, dare to bully you, Shu Ci, you really deserve a beating."

"En." Shu Ci lowered her eyes and stopped talking, she seemed very satisfied with my answer.

Afterwards we drank for a while, I don't know if Shu Ci was in a bad mood, but she was a little drunk after she had always held a good amount of alcohol. She leaned on my shoulder and muttered that she was dizzy.

I was about to help her up when a woman flashed in front of me, grabbed my arm and threw me aside, shouting loudly: "Don't touch her."

who!Are you sick?I am furious.

"Hong Youlian, go away!" Shu Ci pushed hard at the woman who threw me just now.

So you are the "red face"!I rushed over to pull her, she was going to touch Shu Ci while tearing me apart, how could I let her behave wildly, I rushed forward and got entangled with her, during the struggle, I only heard a slap, and someone got hit loudly slap in the face.

Hong Youlian covered her face and was stunned, she didn't expect to hit me.

I really didn't mean it, I instinctively wanted to apologize, but before I could open my mouth, Shu Ci yelled: "We're done, get out."

Hong Youlian was taken aback, she glanced at the two of us fiercely, turned around and strode away.

"Are you okay?" Shu Ci came over to help me cut my hair, my hair was messed up by my red face just now.

I chuckled: "It's okay, I mean what I say, if I say help you beat her up, I'll beat her up for you!" I was a little smug.

"It's up to you." Shu Ci's words should be a compliment to me.

When I got home at night, I wanted to brag to You Yu about my heroic deeds, but I firmly restrained my impulse. One was because I was afraid that she would think that my boss did not look like a boss, and would talk about personal matters that were not marginal. The second reason for harassing my subordinates is that she will cause unnecessary misunderstandings after she knows about Shu Ci. In short, I will put an end to any irrational behavior at this stage.

My Youyu, you know, I'm full of words and want to tell you.
