Start over

When Fu Ziqi sent Mu Xiaowen back, he found that Shen Jing had sat up and turned on the TV, as if nothing happened.

When he got closer, he could see that there was a shopping advertisement on the TV. Although Shen Jing looked ahead, his eyes did not fall on the screen, but fixedly stared at some point, without any anger.

Fu Ziqi walked over to sit next to Shen Jing, and changed the entertainment program with the remote control.On TV, all the celebrities sang and danced funny on the stage, but they couldn't make Shen Jing smile.

"Brother, how do you feel? Drink more water to hangover." Fu Ziqi looked at Shen Jing in a daze, and poured him a glass of water.

Shen Jing turned his head to look at Fu Ziqi, took the water and drank it.

"Thank you, Xiao Fu." Shen Jing said with a tired tone, "I have caused you trouble these days, and I lost my composure just now, sorry."

Fu Ziqi smiled softly: "Brother, what are you talking about? It's like being at home. Besides, sister Xiaowen is not an outsider, so don't think too much about it. If you feel uncomfortable after drinking, wash up and go to sleep. Go to bed early, or you will get a headache tomorrow." .”

Shen Jing saw that Fu Ziqi wasn't dissatisfied or disgusted at all, he was still considerate and considerate, and couldn't say anything about self-blame, so he said "um", and went to wash up.

Fu Ziqi watched Shen Jing take the clothes into the bathroom, and then turned back to watch TV.

This entertainment program has been in production for a long time. With the change of experience and aesthetics, many people already feel that it is not good, but Fu Ziqi can watch it today and slowly laughs.Didn't laugh out loud, but had a great laugh.

A few days later, it was the end of the new year, and the festive atmosphere became stronger everywhere.A small number of people have already left the city for the holidays, and the rest have started to sweep supermarkets to prepare for the New Year.

Fu Ziqi took Shen Jing to buy things every day. Apart from gifts for visiting relatives and friends during the festival, he also stocked up a lot of fresh vegetables.

Shen Jing helped Fu Ziqi move things home in big and small bags, while puzzled, he said: "You bought so many things, the refrigerator can't hold them all. If you want to stock up for winter, it's already spring, why don't you still stock up?"

Fu Ziqi said: "It's stockpiling for the holidays. Although supermarkets are not closed during the Spring Festival, they don't sell fresh goods, and the vegetable market is closed immediately. When it first opened, things were ridiculously expensive, so I bought more before the year."

Shen Jing laughed: "You don't lack that little money. But it's better to save a little, and you will live."

Fu Ziqi also smiled: "You know how to live? Brother, it seems that you haven't bought vegetables during the Chinese New Year. After all, the money is not blown by the wind. Since you can buy more before the Chinese New Year and save it, you don't have to spend it wrongly."

Shen Jing said: "Hey, you are amazing." Resigned to his fate, he continued to accompany Fu Ziqi to sweep goods and move things.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, Fu Ziqi gave the employees a holiday after having a reunion dinner at Taohuayuan at noon.There were a lot of things to pack before the holiday, everyone was busy putting them away, and Shen Jing also helped to check, when suddenly I received a phone call.

When the company went through the bankruptcy process before, Shen Jing's mobile phone was overpaid. After the matter was settled, no one called him, and Shen Jing even forgot about the mobile phone arrears.It was Fu Ziqi who remembered and reissued a card for Shen Jing, saying that to avoid harassment, only the numbers of Fu Ziqi, Mu Xiaowen and his son Shen Yue were saved for the time being.

Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Shen Jing picked it up anyway: "Hi, who is it?"

A soft female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother, you haven't called me for ten days, so you don't remember my number?"

Shen Jing took the phone away from his ear, looked at the number again with a frown, and walked towards the corridor window, politely apologizing: "The previous number is stored on the card, this is a new number, so there is no name marked on it." ,Excuse me."

The female voice over there let out a long "Oh": "It's okay. Anyway, the senior brother heard it as soon as I opened my mouth? It means that the senior brother still cares about me."

Shen Jing felt quite helpless about the other party's self-conscious attitude: "Ms. Chu, what can I do for you? If there is nothing else, I'm a little busy here, so I'll hang up first."

"Brother, don't be so unfeeling—I have something to do." She paused as she spoke, as if deliberately trying to attract Shen Jing to ask.

Shen Jing listened patiently: "Then tell me."

The person over there said: "Brother, I'm back in City C, let's come out and get together tomorrow New Year's Eve."

After a moment of silence, Shen Jing sneered and said: "What is there to get together? Do you need to invite me to celebrate the successful acquisition of Mingming, or do you plan to give me year-end bonus compensation? Others gather with relatives and friends on New Year's Eve, but we are enemies " Shen Jing said very bluntly, the decline of fame and the failure of his career are all thanks to the other party, and the resentment accumulated for so long made him unable to treat it calmly.

The person on the other end of the phone was hurt by Shen Jing's words, and his voice was a little lower, but he still defended himself and said: "Brother, are you angry? It is the decision of the C city government to sell Famous, and I persuaded Jufeng's board of directors to buy it for you. Famous. Brother, if you want, you can continue to manage Mingming, it’s better than Mingming falling into the hands of someone who doesn’t know.”

Shen Jing was laughed at by the other party's self-righteousness: "You mean, I still want to thank you for your great kindness?"

The other party heard that Shen Jing was really angry, and lowered his voice even more: "Senior brother, I didn't mean that. It's almost Chinese New Year, senior brother, shall we not talk about these unhappy things? I don’t have any relatives, senior brother really doesn’t care about me?” She said in a tactful tone, almost begging, as if she was really a lonely poor person, “Senior brother, you were not like this before, remember when I was in the first year of college, I had no money Going home to celebrate the New Year, you said you too. You also told me that if I am still alone in the New Year, you will spend it with me... Brother, it has been so many years, I don’t expect you to remember this agreement, even as ordinary friends, come out Can't we get together?"

Shen Jing was not moved by Chu Xuemei's plaintive tone, but she couldn't help but think of her school days.

Chu Xuemei is Shen Jing's direct junior sister, one year younger than him, and Shen Jing brought her in when she entered school.Because of this, later Shen Jing took care of Chu Xuemei a lot, and Chu Xuemei said that her family was not very good, so Shen Jing once treated her as her own sister.

Later, when Shen Jing and Mu Xiaowen fell in love, Chu Xuemei gradually alienated him.Shen Jing thought she was trying to avoid suspicion and fear that Mu Xiaowen would be unhappy, so she went to dinner with Chu Xuemei with Mu Xiaowen, and Fu Ziqi also went there at that time.However, Chu Xuemei was neither salty nor salty, and in the end she slowly became divided.When Shen Jing worked after graduation and Chu Xuemei went abroad, they completely cut off contact.

Shen Jing regretted losing a friend at first, but she didn't know that Chu Xuemei had a crush on her until she was teased at a class reunion many years later.Shen Jing couldn't figure it out, he was poor and white back then, and didn't even have a city hukou, how could Chu Xuemei like it?It wasn't until she divorced Mu Xiaowen and Chu Xuemei suddenly appeared in front of him that Shen Jing realized that this little junior sister had really liked her for many years.

The Chu Xuemei who reappeared is completely different from the shy girl with black-rimmed glasses back then.The director of a listed company can be said to have achieved success and fame; he is dressed in a famous brand, with fashionable makeup, and his whole person is gorgeous and eye-catching.

Chu Xuemei confessed directly, but Shen Jing flatly refused.Having just lost her marriage with Mu Xiaowen, Shen Jing is still thinking about remarriage and saving it, how could she respond to other people.

Chu Xuemei left sadly and came back this year as the vice president of Jufeng Group, in order to acquire Mingming.

Shen Jing remembered that Ming Ding didn't want to see Chu Xuemei, but he couldn't bear to refuse when he thought of the friendship back then.A man like Shen Jing is always soft-hearted towards women, even those who have hurt him.Shen Jing was about to agree, but saw Fu Ziqi walking over, asking, "What's the matter, brother? I didn't see you just now, and I asked Xiao Zhang, saying that you came here to answer the phone with a serious face, what happened?"

Fu Ziqi came over, stopped a few steps away, and looked at Shen Jing with concern.

Shen Jing wanted to smile to show that it was okay, but he didn't. He raised his hand to cover the receiver of the mobile phone, sighed and said to Fu Ziqi: "Mr. Chu from Jufeng, ask me to have dinner tomorrow."

Fu Ziqi was a little surprised: "Tomorrow is our family reunion. Didn't you promise my sister and them to go home for dinner together? Isn't senior brother going?"

Only then did Shen Jing remember that Fu Ziqi seemed to have said something before, but he didn't agree, right?

"I do not--"

Fu Ziqi thought for a while and asked again: "Is Mr. Chu's appointment at noon or at night? Noon is fine. Speaking of which, they are all in the same school. Brother, if you don't mind asking Mr. Chu, I will go too. If you don't mind, we will go after lunch." Let's go back to my parents' house together."

Shen Jing was even more troubled, and said to Chu Xuemei: "Chu Boss, let's make an appointment at noon. Do you mind if there is one more person? Fu Ziqi also went, that is, the student from the computer department back then, when Xiaowen and I invited you to dinner. of."

Chu Xuemei on the other end was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Okay, brother, I haven't seen you for so many years, and I miss you too much. Then let's make an agreement. Tomorrow at [-] o'clock at noon, Delangxi Restaurant, see you soon." Not scattered."
