There is only one canteen in the Creative Park. The canteen belongs to a large company in Building 20. They are also open to the public. The price is a bit more expensive for those who come to eat outside, but it is also cheaper than small restaurants in other places.The original owner often goes to this canteen to eat, one is to save money, and the other is to save time.

But today, because Chen Chao said that he wanted to eat fried rice outside, Zhang Lin didn't go to the canteen.From building 17, pass a small leisure bar surrounded by glass, pass through a general management office of the park, and go to the back. The buildings behind have not been fully repaired.

Zhang Lin looked at the workers standing on the decoration shelf and said, "These buildings have been repaired for a long time."

In the memory of the original owner, he came to this creative park half a year ago, and many places are still under construction.

Super Chen was looking at his phone while walking, and he casually said, "It's almost finished, it's probably only two months."

They went out from the back door of the park, and then crossed a road. There was a row of small restaurants here. Most of the people who came to eat were people who went to work in the creative park.The two ordered their own dishes. Zhang Lin ordered a tomato scrambled egg, 12 yuan.The taste is very average, too much salt, he has no appetite.After eating half a bowl of rice, I put down my chopsticks.

Chen Chao ate the leeks on the plate, and glanced at Zhang Lin: "You only eat half a bowl of rice?"

Zhang Lin poured a glass of water from the teapot on the table and drank it, saying it was not tasty.Chen Chao said: "This is the case with fast food."

Zhang Lin said: "I don't have much appetite, the weather is too hot."

The summer in S City is really hot. The two of them went back to the office after eating. When crossing the road, Zhang Lin felt his scalp was hot and sunburned.It's better to go back to the garden, because there are many green plants in the park, and there are shadows of trees along the way.

The two went back to the second floor of Building 17. Sister Fang was sitting in the rest area eating. Seeing the two of them coming in, Sister Fang smiled and chatted with Chao Chen, asking them what they had for lunch.Zhang Lin didn't listen to their chat, and went back to the office to sleep.

Upon waking up, Zhang Lin heard movement nearby.Looking sideways, it was the boss' nephew, Yuan Min, who was sitting on an office chair holding a tissue to squeeze his nose, his eyes were a little red.

Zhang Lin asked, "Are you okay?"

Yuan Min looked at him, tears were falling down, it was obviously not good.

Zhang Lin took out a tissue and handed it to him, "Why did you go back to the office?"

He thought the boss's funeral would take a few more days.Yuan Min said: "Uncle asked me to come back first, and I need to answer emails from several customers. I thought you left just like Xiao Chen."

Zhang Lin said: "I signed a lease for a year, and it's hard to find a job this month."

Yuan Min curled his lips and said, "It's still good, Xiao Chen is really unprofessional."

Zhang Lin didn't know what to say, and thought that if your uncle didn't pay his salary, it would be good if he didn't make trouble with you.Xiao Chen is self-retired, and there were more than ten days' wages last month plus this month.

After Yuan Min finished speaking, he thought of something, looked at Zhang Lin a little embarrassedly and said, "Don't worry, the salary will definitely be paid, but it will be a little later. I didn't send it either. It was originally sent in these two days. I didn't expect ..."

When he said this, his eyes were red again.

Why is he a 24 to [-] man who loves to cry so much.

Zhang Lin quickly changed the subject and said, "How are you and your boyfriend doing?"

Speaking of this, Yuan Min's voice was sad: "We haven't been in touch for more than a week."

Zhang Lin patted him on the shoulder and said nothing.Yuan Min has a boyfriend. The two met and fell in love when they were in college. After graduation, Yuan Min came to his uncle's company to help.His boyfriend also came to S City and worked in another area of ​​S City.The two see each other about once or twice a week.

When Gu Li came to this company, Xiao Chen hadn't come yet.So Gu Li started to get closer to Yuan Min. After being a colleague for more than half a month, Yuan Min, who couldn't handle things, told Gu Li about his boyfriend, because he was very troubled at that time. His second uncle has been introducing objects to him.

Yuan Min is a person who listens to his parents very much. He perfunctorily went on blind dates with the girl introduced by his second uncle several times.Later, his boyfriend found out about the blind date. The boyfriend was so angry that he ignored him for a week.A week later, his boyfriend came to him and asked him if he was still on a blind date, and if he dared to go, they would break up.

Yuan Min sobbed and said that he didn't know, but he had to listen to what the second uncle said.The boyfriend was so angry that he didn't want to break up, and the two of them sneaked back and forth until his uncle saw them kissing in an alley behind the park.

Then it was forced to break up.Zhang Lin knew from the original owner's memory that Yuan Min's boyfriend had visited their company three days ago. That night, after the original owner got off work, he found that the mobile phone was left in the company, so he came back to get it.Just overheard his boyfriend arguing with his boss in the office.

The boss jumped to his death on the third day of the quarrel, and Zhang Lin temporarily threw Yuan Min's boyfriend into the list of suspects.

In addition, Zhang Lin also suspected that he was a member of the debt company, because the boss should have owed a lot of debt.Their office is very small, and the boss also works in the same small space. The original owner often heard the boss receive calls about unsecured loans, although most of them were hung up by him.But there were still a small number of calls, and he answered and asked some questions.

The boss has been short of money, and everyone on this floor knows it.Zhang Lin felt that he should have borrowed a lot of usury loans.

"Xiao Gu, Xiao Gu?" After being patted on the arm several times, Zhang Lin came back to his senses.

Yuan Min moved his head closer and looked at his computer screen: "Wow, did you finish this page so quickly? Didn't you say it would take at least a week?"

Zhang Lin swiped the hand-painted pen in his hand. He was just thinking about something while doing something.

Zhang Lin: "It will be faster when I have inspiration."

Actually not, the original owner did need a week to do it, but this is a bit simple for Zhang Lin.

Seeing that he was still doing so well at this time, Yuan Min felt even more embarrassed. He muttered a few words, saying that the salary will be paid soon, so that Zhang Lin can rest assured.

Four hours passed quickly in the afternoon, and it was 5:[-].The two came out of the office and locked the door.

Yuan Min said: "Let's go eat snail noodles, I invite you."

Zhang Lin said yes, they passed by a studio with more than a dozen people next door. This studio often worked overtime until 10 o'clock in the evening. The people in the glass cubicle watched the two of them pass by with green eyes.

Zhang Lin thought, compared to having to work overtime until 10 o'clock, it seems that wage arrears can be tolerated.

When passing by the new company, Yuan Min suddenly stopped leaving.

Zhang Lin: "What's wrong?"

Yuan Min whispered, "Why is he here?"

Zhang Lin: "Who?"

Yuan Min: "I'm a man, no, my ex-boyfriend."

Zhang Lin followed his gaze and saw Yuan Min's boyfriend among a group of people. They were moving the computer desk.

Zhang Lin walked along: "Sister Fang said, this is a new company. Has your boyfriend found a new job? Or is he already in this company, and the company moved here, so he moved here too."

Yuan Min curled his lips, his eyes were a little red, he emphasized: "It's not a boyfriend."

Well, Zhang Lin said again: "Your ex-boyfriend."

Yuan Min shook his head and said, "I don't know why he is here, we all broke up."

While the two were talking, they had already descended the stairs and came out from the front door of Building 17.After passing the parking lot, they came out of a small gate in the park and arrived at a residential area.

The rented house of the original owner is in this area, Yuan Min lives in the same building as him, and lives opposite him.The two went to eat snail noodles. The original owner actually liked it, but Zhang Lin still had no appetite, so he put down his chopsticks after two bites.

Yuan Min said, "You are such a waste."

Zhang Lin felt the same, and took a few more mouthfuls.After eating snail noodles, the two separated, and Yuan Min said that he would go back to his second uncle's house to have a look.

His second uncle's house was a new building where Zhang Lin had lunch, and he bought it last year.

Zhang Lin is fine, he plans to go back to the rented room to clean up.The original owner had just moved to this community for two days, and previously lived in the urban village opposite the Creative Park.It takes about half an hour to walk to work, but I am often late. Later, Yuan Min said that someone across from him moved out, and asked him if he wanted to move here, and the original owner moved here. It only takes 10 minutes to walk to work here.

Zhang Lin walked through an alley, surrounded by several small Western-style buildings of a certain age.There are many fruit trees, longan and loquat planted in the yard of Xiaoyanglou. Now is the season of longan blooming, and the whole alley is full of the fragrance of longan flowers.

He entered a rental house next to Xiaoyang Building.This rental house has ten floors, each floor has six or seven single rooms, and there is no elevator.

Zhang Lin lived on the third floor. He went up to the third floor and opened the door to enter. Inside was a single room of more than ten square meters. The rent was 850, excluding utilities.

The room was a mess, with cardboard boxes piled up together, clothes piled up on the bed, and shoes one by one.

Zhang Lin made a path through the pile of debris and walked to the balcony. Both the toilet and the kitchen are on the balcony. Zhang Lin entered the kitchen. There were still a few unwashed dishes in the sink, and a few small cockroaches were on the bowls. Climbing, Zhang Lin frowned, turned on the faucet, and the water rushed several cockroaches into the sewer.

After washing the dirty dishes, he went to the toilet and came out. He took a bucket to the balcony to collect water, intending to wipe the bed first.

While waiting for the water, he looked downstairs, facing the backyard of the small western-style building, with several tall and dense loquat trees next to his balcony.The loquat tree is full of fruits, which are yellow, big and ripe.Zhang Lin swallowed his saliva, feeling a little craving for sour loquat.

After he finished wiping the bed, he folded the clothes into the closet, cleared out all the unused sundries, and mopped the floor with water.

Breaking out in a hot sweat, Zhang Lin stood on the balcony to rest, and in sight were a few loquat trees in his backyard. The trees were full of densely packed fruits, and the ground was full of them. It seemed that no one had picked them.Zhang Lin felt it was a bit wasteful. He stood for a while, looked around, and picked up a clothes pole beside him.

The clothes pole stretched out and pulled over a branch full of yellow loquats. Zhang Lin picked a few big ones, but when he let go, the pole failed to grasp properly and fell down.It fell directly into someone's yard.

Zhang Lin twitched the corner of his mouth in embarrassment, he couldn't pick it up, forget it.He was standing on the balcony peeling loquats to eat, and suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw a man standing on the opposite terrace, with a cigarette in his mouth, looking at him quietly.

Zhang Lin: "..."

This feeling of stealing someone's loquat and being caught on the spot!Zhang Lin couldn't stand anymore, his face was a little hot, he turned and went into the room.

The author has something to say:

Gong: Is my loquat delicious?
