It turns out that no one survives in love
Chapter 2 Zero-sum game
The next morning, Lin Rui skipped class to take up his part-time job in an investment bank.He started to squeeze the subway at 5 o'clock in the morning, and then he was busy all the way until 12 noon.The interns dragged each other to lunch, and Xiao Zhu, who was from the same department as him, called him as usual, "Lin Rui, let's go downstairs to eat." Lin Rui was uncharacteristically, "No, you go. I'm here There is still some data to be finished." Xiao Zhu was taken aback, "Why are you working so hard all of a sudden?! Don't you usually have to eat as soon as the o'clock arrives? It's like an alarm clock. What's the matter today? Besides, you I didn’t eat in the morning, it’s not okay.” Lin Rui smiled at him, “It’s okay, you go. If I get hungry later, I’ll go downstairs and buy a piece of cake.” Xiao Zhu only thought that he was suddenly overwhelmed with self-motivation , "Okay... you, you work hard." So I went to dinner with my colleagues.
After everyone left, Lin Rui took out an apple from his bag, walked to the window of the rest area, and gnawed slowly while looking down at the sunny Beijing city.In fact, Lin Rui didn't understand why he suddenly made up his mind to lose weight. He tried many times before, but he was beaten to death by pressure and greed.But that smile in the morning light always lingers in his mind, making him ashamed.From that moment on, there was a voice in his heart that gently bewitched him, if you can become better, there may be a one in ten thousand chance that you are qualified to stand by his side.In fact, Lin Rui didn't know what it meant to "get better", so he simply decided to start by losing weight.
Such a small apple, even if Lin Rui chewed it at the slowest speed, he would finish it very quickly.Lin Rui couldn't help sighing, patted his still deflated stomach, "I'm not up to it, I'm still hungry after eating." Then he pursed his mouth, aggrieved, and prepared to go back to the office to divert his attention from work.When he turned around, he was startled.A man is sitting on the sofa behind him, gray suit pants, white shirt, no tie and open neckline, one arm is leaning on the arm of the sofa, the other hand is holding a cup of coffee, talking sexually at the moment Looking at him, with a vague smile on his face.Before Lin Rui could fully react, his face turned red, he smiled awkwardly, and walked past the man with his head down.As he walked, he thought, "It's unlucky, I've probably been seen by others for my stupid actions just now." He deceived himself with a glimmer of hope in his heart, "It's also possible that he didn't see anything, I just turned my back on him. His." As soon as he was about to enter the office, he heard a low laugh behind him.Lin Rui paused for a moment, then walked quickly into the office as if fleeing.
It was already 9 o'clock in the evening when I returned to the dormitory, Lin Rui felt that he was not well, and he was dizzy from hunger.Trembling, he took out a bag of instant noodles and soaked them in hot water, then exhausted all his self-control and ate the noodles slowly, muttering to himself, "Twenty times, twenty times, chewing twenty times." Then Throwing away the soup, he dragged his heavy legs and went to the bathhouse to take a bath.Fortunately, there was no part-time job the next day, so he obediently went to the classroom to attend classes without much physical exertion, and managed to survive the day of apples and yogurt.At night, a text message from Liu Yi came, "Meet me?" Lin Rui felt weak for a moment.Liu Yi didn't ask him for a simple meeting, but he really couldn't get up. On the one hand, he was so hungry and physically exhausted during the weight loss period. On the other hand, he really didn't want to, even though he didn't want to admit it and refused to think about it. reason.Lin Rui struggled for a long time, and replied, "I have a deadline, how about next time?", and waited anxiously for Liu Yi's reply, and after 10 minutes, he replied, "It will be done".Lin Rui didn't know if Liu Yi was angry. He didn't have the strength to think about it anymore. He lay on the bed, exhausted from hunger, and slowly fell asleep.
After a week like this, when Lin Rui reappeared in front of everyone in the scientific research institute, he really surprised everyone.Sister Ye was the first to exclaim, "Xiao Linzi, what happened to you?! Why did you lose so much weight?" Mr. Liang didn't say anything, but frowned and looked at Lin Rui slowly.Teacher Cao patted Lin Rui on the shoulder, "Little Lin, pay attention to your body. You can't ignore your body just because you are too busy studying. Alas, young people, just don't take your body seriously until you get old... " Lin Rui looked like he was accepting education humbly, but his eyes were quietly looking around, and he didn't see Haiming. It seems that he won't be here today.Lin Rui was a little bit disappointed, and then a little bit rejoiced. The later he saw him, the more he would change.
At the end of the day's work, Mr. Liang and I walked back to the dormitory building as usual.Uncharacteristically, Mr. Liang didn't speak all the way, Lin Rui felt a little uneasy, "Senior brother, I..." Mr. Liang interrupted him, "Come on, senior brother treats you to dinner." Lin Rui had no choice but to follow.The two went to a casserole restaurant. Mr. Liang ordered a sauerkraut casserole with white meat and the lightest tofu casserole for Lin Rui without asking Lin Rui's opinion. He also told the proprietress that he added shrimp and scallops.It was steaming hot, and Lin Rui took a sip of the soup, feeling that his viscera were infinitely ironed, and he felt that he hadn't eaten so comfortably for a long time.Mr. Liang's voice sounded faintly, "To lose weight, you don't have to eat poorly. As long as you eat healthy, you can lose weight and have a balanced nutrition. For example, soy products, vegetables, seafood, fruits, yogurt, you can eat more Eat some, it is good for the skin, and the effect can be maintained for a long time." Lin Rui asked with a blushing face, "Mr. Liang, what do you..." "How do you know so much?" Mr. Liang looked at him jokingly, "You, It’s the same as when your sister-in-law was losing weight. I don’t care about it. I have gained experience in taking care of her. Eat more protein, less fat, more vegetables and less sugar. Then from this week, every time I start from the scientific research room After work, I will have dinner with you. After dinner, let's go for a walk on the playground, treat it as exercise, and then talk about your subject, which can save time." Lin Rui didn't answer, drinking the soup slowly, Steam rose, covering his red eye sockets.Since his mother passed away, his father started a family and had his own children. He has not been cared for in this way for many years. Whether it is cold or not, whether he is tired or not, no one cares about how he arranges and plans. He is used to being alone. Take it all.He thought silently in his heart that he should really be grateful to have a friend who genuinely cares about him and takes care of him like Mr. Liang.
The next day, Sister Ye told Lin Rui that Haiming's mentor's project had reached the second stage. He went to Shenzhen with his mentor for a business trip and would not return until two weeks later.Lin Rui cheered himself up silently. Two weeks should be enough for him to lose a few more catties.Counting it, since the last time they rejected Liu Yi's date, the two of them hadn't been in touch for a week, but Lin Rui didn't have the time and energy to think about it.The company he worked part-time started to work on an investment project. Those who work part-time work hard every minute of work.The project with the tutor has reached a critical stage, and I am busy every day until two or three o'clock in the morning.Every time I come back from work and eat a vegetable salad or seafood casserole in a hurry, I have to rush to the library to fight with documents and data.In this way, I ate less and worked more. When I saw Haiming two weeks later, the other party was so surprised that he didn't speak for about 1 seconds.Lin Rui was happy and asked a little anxiously, "What's the matter?" Haiming smiled embarrassedly, "Uh, no. It's just that you lost a lot of weight." Lin Rui didn't know where the courage came from, and blurted out "Why, distressed?" As soon as he said that, he regretted it, blushing and standing there, all the courage of provocativeness disappeared in an instant, and he was sweating nervously, thinking how to redeem the stupidity of withdrawing. In the case of X, who would have thought that the next second Haiming would say very naturally, "Well, it hurts a little. Your jaw is so sharp." He stretched out his hand and tapped Lin Rui's chin lightly.Lin Rui froze in place for a moment, and after 10 seconds, he felt as if he was returning to his cage. His mind was like fireworks blooming, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. Reward yourself with a bar of chocolate late.
On the way back to the dormitory, Lin Rui and Haiming were walking side by side, and Haiming suddenly said, "Xiao Linzi, I don't have many friends in the department, and everyone is busy. If you have time, we can make more appointments for dinner in the future." Go." Lin Rui smiled in his heart, but kept his face calm, nodded, and said lightly, "Okay." The next day, he received a text message from Haiming, asking him to eat rice noodles at night .When Lin Rui received the text message, he was so busy in the office of the part-time company that it was dark, and he woke up for a second when he saw the text message.He looked at the piles of documents and tasks, and returned tremblingly, "Okay, I'll be there in half an hour." After sending the text message, he hurriedly packed his things and ran outside.Amy in the same group was taken aback, "Lin Rui, you finished the data so quickly?!" Lin Rui walked out and hurried back, "Oh no, I'll do it at night." Already rushed to the elevator entrance.
On the subway and jogging along the way, Lin Rui appeared sweaty all over at the rice noodle shop that he had made an appointment with. As soon as he recovered his breath, Haiming appeared at the door.Still a simple gray with a black coat.Lin Rui thought of it, it seems that since we met, he has been in such a style, black, white and gray, so simple that it is almost monotonous.It is monotonous for others to dress like this, but when it is put on Haiming, this monotony becomes synonymous with warmth in Lin Rui's heart.Haiming stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Lin Rui, "Hey, what are you thinking about?" Rubbing Lin Rui's soft hair, "Is your hair a bit long? It's covering your eyes." Lin Rui was thinking wildly, "I won't wash my hair tonight." He said as if nothing had happened, "Really, no Discovered." Lin Rui felt that he was extremely worthless, and every time Haiming had a little bit of a friendly attitude, he was like a sunflower that had been given sunshine, and would desperately circle around him.Once a young but long-lonely heart throbs, it has invincible courage.Nothing in the world matters except the ones he loves.But Lin Rui didn't understand at that time that there are many reasons why a person treats you well.Because you like the other person, you hope that the other person treats you the same way as you.Over time, I believed it myself.Lin Rui didn't know until a long time later that Haiming didn't like rice noodles at all. He just heard that Mr. Liang often took Lin Rui to eat rice noodles, so he thought Lin Rui liked it.So, on such an early spring night, two young people sat in a small shop, eating rice noodles as if nothing had happened.But one put down all his work and crossed half the city without mentioning a word; the other was just full of compassionate kindness.Both people are kind, and both relationships are well-meaning.It’s just that Lin Rui doesn’t know that the most common thing in love is a zero-sum game. You try your best to treat me well, and I try my best not to make you sad, but unfortunately, 1+1=0.
