Life is more than just living

The next day, when Chen Xu went out to work, he met Lin Zhiyuan who was also going out. He greeted him coldly and politely, as if the person yesterday was not him. Seeing that he was as cold as ice, Chen Xu was too embarrassed to ride in the elevator with him, so he slowly walked down the stairs from the safe passage. When Chen Xu was walking towards the gate of the community, Lin Zhiyuan's car came from behind and drove past without even stopping.

As soon as Chen Xuxu walked to the gate of the community, she saw Gao Shan sitting in the car waiting for her. Chen Xu has now passively become accustomed to Gao Shan picking up and dropping off her every day. After getting on the bus, she thanked Gao Shan, "Thank you for your hard work. You have to pick me up and drop off every day." Gao Shan smiled, showing his white teeth, "This is my honor." Chen Xu asked again: Do you also live in this community? Gao Shan smiled, "Yes, my eldest brother and I live in the same building, but I live on the fourth floor of another unit. My eldest brother is very kind to us. He gave each of these brothers who have been following him from the beginning a house. , how can we people afford such a big house? Even my mother said that I was with the right person." Seeing Gao Shan's overjoyed look, Chen Xu was also infected, and she smiled , "Brother Lin is indeed a nice person, and he is also helping me."

Chen Xu thought for a while and repeated the old words: "Please don't call me sister-in-law in the future, can you? This will make Brother Lin and I both embarrassed. In fact, Brother Lin's mother was once my mentor. Teacher Lin taught me from the first grade to the sixth grade of elementary school. Our relationship was not just as simple as teacher and student. Teacher Lin was my benefactor. She was so kind to me, and before I had time to repay her, she was gone. "

Gao Shan saw that Chen Xu was explaining to him seriously and nodded quickly, "Then what should I call you? Can I call you Miss Chen?" Chen Xu shook his head and asked, "What's your name? Miss!" Just call me by my name. My name is Chen Xu, I am 27 this year. "Gao Shan laughed when he heard this. I am also 27 this year. When Chen Xu heard it, how about we call each other by our names? Gao Shan thought about it and said, okay!"

When he arrived at the bus stop, Chen Xu got off the bus and waved goodbye to Gao Shan. Gao Shan muttered, "Why go to all the trouble? Why don't I just send you to the unit?" Chen Xu explained helplessly: "Think about it, I'm just an ordinary civil servant, and the car you drive is better than our leaders' cars. Do you think I'm so flamboyant and still want to work in the workplace? It's crazy and it's raining, people Madness brings disaster, I am just a weak woman, it is better to keep a low profile."

When he arrived at the unit, Li Chang said to Chen Xu: "I received the document yesterday. Starting next week, your new civil servants will go to the Party School for initial training. Several newcomers in our unit will go for a week. Food and accommodation will be arranged. They can live in You can also take a lunch break there.”

Chen Xu thought about it for a while. Several people lived in the same room, especially the few people who went with her, like Wang Ran and several other civil servants, who did not have a very good relationship with her. After much deliberation, she decided to go back to her residence every day. good. The party school training classroom and lounge are on the same floor, and everything is arranged before the class starts. Not only are there fixed seats during the training period, and you are not allowed to move around at will, even the rest rooms have been arranged, but the male dormitories and female dormitories are all on the same floor.

At the opening ceremony, the leader of the Organization Department was speaking from above, but Wang Ran was whispering to Qin Yang, another civil servant who came with him. At this time, the leader suddenly stopped, and Wang Ran's voice seemed very abrupt. Everyone looked at her, and she blushed and shut up. Chen Xu was sitting behind her. Although he didn't want to hear what they had to say, he was affected by their noise.

After lunch, everyone went to the designated room to rest. One room, four beds. Chen Xu lay on the bed without saying a word and closed his eyes to rest. Regardless of whether the others were resting, Wang Ran kept chatting with the man named Qin Yang. The two of them talked about electronic products, buying clothes, shoes and bags. Wang Ran said that he liked a bag, but it was a bit too expensive. , it costs more than 1 yuan. Wang Ran sighed and said: It’s too expensive to buy a bag, and our income is too low, but if we want to buy electronic products, it’s still acceptable to spend [-] on a mobile phone.

Su Xiaomei, another newly admitted civil servant, is quite old, already in her 30s, and already has two children. She has a hard time taking care of her children at night, so she wanted to take a good rest at noon. Listening to Wang Ran and Qin Yang talking and laughing happily, Amelia Su turned back and forth on the bed, hoping that they would be more conscious and not affect others. Chen Xu understood what she meant, but Chen Xu remained calm and closed his eyes to rest even though he couldn't sleep. Finally, Su Xiaomei couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly stood up and slammed the door and left. Wang Ran and Qin Yang were chatting enthusiastically and didn't take it seriously. At this time, they were talking about which barbecue restaurant was delicious and which milk tea was delicious. Chen Xu didn't expect to fall asleep, but she still lay there motionless. Wang Ran glanced at Chen Xu with malice, saw her eyelashes moving, and thought to himself: Baby, let's see how long you can pretend to be asleep. Chen Xu has often encountered people who made trouble for her since she was a child, so these are not problems. After a while, there was a knock on the door, and then the door was pushed open. A man stood outside and said, "Please, it's lunch break time. Please don't make any noise." After that, he turned and left. Qin Yang blushed. She looked at the time and said, "No, I'm sleepy. I have to lie down for a while. My waist hurts a little after sitting all morning. I have to continue sitting for several hours in the afternoon. Aren't you sleepy?" ? I have to sleep for a while." After saying this, Qin Yang closed the curtains and lay down on the bed to rest. Wang Ran was still lying on the bed playing with his mobile phone. During the afternoon class, when Chen Xu arrived at the classroom a few minutes early, he found Su Xiaomei sleeping on the table. Wang Ran and Qin Yang didn't feel guilty at all when they saw it. At the end of the training in the evening, Chen Xu walked to a nearby bus stop. Su Xiaomei drove over and kindly offered to give Chen Xu a ride. Chen Xu said that he could just take the bus, but Amelia Su insisted and asked Chen Xu where he lived. Chen Xu had no choice but to say that he lived in Shengshi Huafu. Su Mei smiled and said that my house is across the street. I'll take you there. Unable to resist the kindness, Chen Xu got into Su Xiaomei's car. She quickly called Gao Shan and said that she If you take a colleague's car back, you don't have to pick yourself up. In the car, Su Xiaomei couldn't bear to complain about Wang Ran and Qin Yang, saying that these two people had no quality and no sense of public morality. Although Chen Xu agreed with what she said, he did not agree with her and just listened quietly. At noon the next day, Chen Xu saw that Su Xiaomei looked unkind. She felt that if the two people continued their behavior today, Su Xiaomei might explode. Today, the two of them stopped talking about eating, drinking, shopping, and instead started gossiping. They asked Chen Xu bluntly if her boyfriend was rich? Chen Xu shook his head. Wang Ran said, "Oh, how long can you keep it a secret? Now everyone in the hospital knows that your boyfriend is a rich man." Chen Xu remembered what Lin Zhiyuan had told him, and he neither denied nor affirmed. So she replied, "Who did you listen to? Why didn't I know that I had a rich boyfriend?" Unexpectedly, Wang Ran didn't intend to change the topic at all. She kept gossiping. Chen Xu wanted to pretend to be deaf today. All difficult. She also followed Su Xiaomei's footsteps and went out of the lounge to rest at her desk in the classroom for a while. In the past few days, Su Xiaomei and Chen Xu had become close because of the same experiences. In the morning, Su Xiaomei would wait for Chen Xu at the gate of the community, drag her to the party school with her, and drive her back in the evening. Since it was more than 40 minutes' drive to the party school, Su Mei took the initiative to chat with Chen Xu on the way, and was still angry when talking about Wang Ran and Qin Yang. Chen Xu couldn't help but murmur that where there are many women, there are also many things to do.
