rest of life

Chapter 23

Tong Yao stood there dumbfounded.

Watching Gu Qingyun walk away.

However, soon she understood what Gu Qingyun meant very clearly.

The resignation form signed by Tong Yao and the resignation report all went into the shredder.

When the assistant brought the file bag full of shredded papers to Tong Yao, he also brought her a sentence: "The director said, if you have any comments, you should spell them out first, and then go to her."

Tong Yao stared at the confetti that had been broken into granules, and slowly tilted her head, "This... am I desperate?"

The assistant smiled, "That means no objection, right?"

Tong Yao: "..."



in the restaurant.

At noon, it is rare to wait in line, and follow the waiter directly in.

Tong Yao ate absent-mindedly.

With his face down, his eyes were fixed on the plate but obviously not on the food.

"Why are you so unhappy?" Jiang Junwen took the fork and walked along the last chicken wing in front of Tong Yao, "Now things are going well, the world is peaceful, and you can have half a day off tomorrow. What are you unhappy about?"

Tong Yao came back to her senses, looked at the empty plate, raised her eyes, "Hello!"

She tried to snatch back the last of the chicken wings, "I'm not moping."

Two forks, one mess.

Tong Yao and Jiang Junwen picked half of each, each satisfied.

Jiang Junwen glanced at her, "Are you really okay?"

"It's okay," Tong Yao glared at her, while cutting the steak rattlingly.

That is, it feels like Gu Qingyun is in a cold war with himself recently.

In the past, he was obviously always ordering her around, but now he is much more polite.

In the past, she was called to the office every now and then to add extra work, but now she won't.

Seeing her idling in a daze, I won't find fault with her anymore...

These words cannot be spoken.

Otherwise, Jiang Junwen would laugh at her to death.

"..."

After lunch.

Tong Yao wandered back to the company slowly, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Gu Qingyun.

She lifted her lips, and her pace couldn't help but quicken, and she just walked to the office area.

He heard Gu Qingyun explain the work to Xia Nan and hand her a document.

"..."

Tong Yao stepped forward.

She clearly caught a glimpse, but she didn't look at her at all.walk straight through.

Tong Yao pursed her lips tightly, staring at her back, her small chest bulging with anger.But I was still depressed in my heart, and I didn't know why I was going to be angry.

You haven't been scolded by a big leader today, so you're unhappy? ?

Xia Nan didn't notice anything at all, put down the file, and turned to talk to Tong Yao happily: "Although our first-year newcomers can't go to activities yet, it's good to be able to go home early tomorrow! Other companies don’t have a holiday like Christmas.”

"Ah."

"Senior, are you unhappy?"

"happy."

"But why do you look unhappy?"

Hearing this, Tong Yao gave her a deep look, "Don't ask, it's your fault if you ask." Her tone was quite serious.

Xia Nan: "...??"

The day is over.

It wasn't until the light from the sky was taken away by a thread, and it was completely dark, that Tong Yao probably finished the work in hand.Sighing, he realized that his neck was completely stiff after sitting for too long.

Painting needs to be a sedentary job, and her spine and lumbar spine are not very good.

Tong Yao hurriedly stood up, thought about it, and went downstairs to the convenience store to eat an ice cream.

Come back and prepare to finish the work.

The headlights in the corridor were dimmed. Tong Yao walked by and glanced in. Although she couldn't see clearly, she felt that Gu Qingyun had already left.

She sighed and returned to her desk.

Suddenly, I saw an extra thing on the table, like an envelope, which was pressed by a corner of the laptop for fear of being blown away.

Tong Yao hurriedly opened it to take a look.

Inside is a nice textured plain black card with the company logo on it.

That is, the invitation letter for tomorrow's company Christmas Eve event.

Each employee who has been employed for one year has one.

But only leaders above the manager level can take an extra card to bring their family members.

"..."

Obviously still arguing.

Tong Yao stood there in a daze, staring at the invitation letter, the smile on her lips widened little by little.

oops.

The person who would give her this... must have a crush on her!



The next day.

Tong Yao stood in front of the mirror at six o'clock, tried on clothes repeatedly, and threw a bunch of clothes on the bed that she didn't think looked good.

Tried and tried, sighed, always felt that I had no clothes to wear at all.

I can't help but think regretfully, I would have gone to the shopping mall last night if I knew it earlier.

After thousands of choices, I finally picked out a dress at the bottom of the box, elegant white, with a low-key short transparent lace on the cuffs, the thick fabric is not heavy at all.Outlines the slender waist and shows the length of the legs.

Wear it with a khaki trench coat.

Good-looking without exaggeration, suitable for commuting and participating in activities.

When I went out, I was not afraid of the cold and wore a pair of white pointed kitten heels.

Tong Yao looked at the mirror repeatedly.

He pursed his lips and smiled with satisfaction.

While sending a voice message to Jiang Junwen, said: "Have you arrived yet?"

Jiang Junwen rolled down the car window and saw Tong Yao's carefully dressed appearance, and waited for her for a long time to dissipate the anger.

Can't help joking: "My sister is going to show off tonight."

"Why are you so kind to pick me up?" Tong Yao glanced at her with a smile, got into the car, fastened her seat belt, and then remembered to ask, "How do you know I can go? I still want to tell you at night to scare you One jump."

"You still want to scare me? Where do you think your invitation letter came from?"

"……what?"

Tong Yao didn't react at once.

"Yesterday, I complained coquettishly to Luo Zihang. The company wanted an invitation letter for this shitty event, saying that you couldn't be with me. Who knows, he immediately put his own share on your desk."

"..."

Jiang Junwen didn't notice that Tong Yaogang's face, which was still beaming beside her, suddenly turned black.

She said proudly: "That man must be interested in my old lady. Hey, a straight man... I don't know if I actually want him to be with me more."

Tong Yao: "..."

She stared at her stupidly, and after a long silence, she said, "I'm going to kill you."

Jiang Junwen: "...Sister, can't it be??"



All the way to the company, Tong Yao didn't slow down.

Sitting in the seat with a dark face, he finds nothing pleasing to the eye.

The potted plant on the desk of the colleague in front was as green as plastic, it was ugly.How could someone keep such an ugly potted plant!

She sat for a long time, until she started to work, her heart was still full of anger.

After all, I was secretly happy all night yesterday.

Now I can only rejoice.

Fortunately, she had an awkward personality, didn't get the item, and immediately happily sent Gu Qingyun a message of thanks - almost doing so.

Li Ran passed by, suddenly paused, and praised her with a smile, "Hey, today is very beautiful."

"Thank you," Tong Yao winked at her and smiled.

Suddenly she felt better again.

While working, I was looking forward to when Gu Qingyun would come.Although, but her attire can be glanced at by her eyes, she seems to be very happy...

As a result, Gu Qingyun was not seen the whole morning.

Tong Yao's face stinks again.

"..."

She was too embarrassed to ask others, where did the director go?Do you know when she will come?

After all, there is no serious excuse to find her.

Thinking about it carefully, Gu Qingyun probably won't go at all.

Why can't she not come today?

Tong Yao thought for a while, who cares about her, it doesn't matter if she comes or not, and then thought, if she doesn't come later, she and Xia Nan will get off work early.

Leisure work is quickly finished.

After lunch, those who should go home go home, and those who should go to touch up their makeup have already filled the bathroom.

Tong Yao hesitated for a long time, but went to find Jiang Junwen, planning to touch into the event venue to have a look.After all, Gu Qingyun is also an executive of the company, so it is impossible to ask for leave directly for the activities at the end of the year.



"Did you see where Gu Qingyun is?"

"I can see that you like Gu Qingyun," Jiang Junwen was asked the third time by her, and finally realized later, "Are there any mistakes? I always thought you were trying to hide from her..."

Tong Yao hesitated, then changed the subject and asked, "If I really like her, won't you be angry?"

"Why am I angry?"

"Workplace love usually doesn't end well."

Jiang Junwen nodded, "If you get stuck, you must be the one to get out."

Tong Yao couldn't believe it, "You think it's okay?"

"No problem, it's easy to find a job anywhere, but it's rare for you to like Gu Qingyun..." Jiang Junwen's voice faded, and she didn't continue the second half of the sentence. She paused and changed the subject abruptly, "Those men are all look at you."

Tong Yao's return rate is indeed very high.

Jiang Junwen held her arm tightly proudly, "You have to behead a lot of people today."

"I just want to kill Gu Qingyun..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw a familiar figure in the distance.

It was rare for Gu Qingyun to wear a skirt.

A simple little black dress and a suit jacket.The dress has a square collar, revealing a shiny white parallel collarbone, and the long jet-black hair like a waterfall is slightly covered, and a few strands are nestled in the hollow of the shoulder.

Tong Yao's breathing paused slightly.

His heart beat a few beats faster, his eyes were lowered, and he tried hard to calm the burn on his face.

She has a little hobby, especially for women's delicate and beautiful collarbones.Originally, when Gu Qingyun was wearing a shirt, he always buttoned it to the top meticulously, hiding most of his neck, let alone going down.

Tonight, this dress...

The word just now kept echoing in Tong Yao's ears: cut...

How naive it was before!

Only then did Jiang Junwen see, "Your Gu Qingyun is finally here, but we can't seem to make it through now."

She was long overdue.

However, many people quickly gathered around, men and women, as if they were toasting, with smiles on their faces.

From such a distance, Tong Yao could imagine those old fritters, being polite and flattering all the time.

Gu Qingyun summoned the passing waiter, also holding a bottle of champagne in his hand.

When socializing, talk and laugh Yanyan.

Tong Yao stood for a while, watching her smile at this person and that person.

Turning his face away, he pulled Jiang Junwen and said, "Go and sit inside."

"Eh……"

Jiang Junwen had no choice but to follow her in.

Tong Yao picked a very remote corner, where she could see half of the table, and when someone was talking later, she could barely see the distance between a man and a woman.

Ask the person directly for a whole bottle of wine and two glasses.

"Come pour wine."

"Isn't it you, come here to get drunk?"

Tong Yao ignored her and drank on her own.

Chatting with Jiang Junwen one after another.

After a while, Jiang Junwen ignored her, lowered her head, and kept replying messages with her mobile phone.

Tong Yao also started playing with her mobile phone.

Opened Weibo, found that many people circled her, clicked in.

I saw a hot topic. In reality, people who can rely on their appearance to make a living rely on their strength.

Cheng Yujian: @Tong Ke, your teacher Tong is.When I first saw the painting style on the homepage, I thought it was a middle-aged man. When I first talked about cooperation, I was shocked when I saw him. I checked several times to see if it was me.

He is the editor of a well-known domestic publishing house and has more than 1 fans.

Tong Yao took over his contract to paint the cover of a popular novel on the Internet. He has collaborated several times, and both of them have followed each other.

The two usually do not communicate in private.

Because "Tong Ke" became famous very early, she has been low-key and mysterious for thousands of years, and has never posted photos on social networking sites, so fans are very interested in her.There are dozens of comments below, all expressing her love and asking what she looks like.

Cheng Yujian said a bunch of framed adjectives, fair skin, very beautiful, big eyes.

Is it the cultural level to be edited by everyone?

Again and again.

He interacts very vigorously in the comments.

Tong Yao silently pretended she didn't see it, and opened the private message, only the ones sent by the followers she set would be displayed.

Cheng Yujian: [Teacher Tong, I circled you, I hope you are not disturbed/naughty]

Tong Yao helplessly rolled her eyes, pretending she didn't see it.

The less trouble, the better.

She is different from those newcomer painters who have just emerged. After so many years, she has already had a long-term and stable partner for receiving drawings. She does not need to do this and that on the Internet to increase fan activity and earn fame.

I ate the circled melon for a while.

Press the phone in boredom.

While picking up the goblet and continuing to drink, she scolded Jiang Junwen next to her: "Your good friend is right next to me, and you only know how to play with your mobile phone, only chat with stinky men, and forget your righteousness!"

It was inconvenient for Jiang Junwen to retort, so she had to swallow her breath and say, "I haven't got it all yet, so of course you have to keep an eye on it, good boy."

Tong Yao continued to scold her: "A good friend sits across from you, and you let her pour the wine for herself, do you have a conscience!"

A message popped up on the phone.

Tong Yao saw that it was sent by Gu Qingyun, her heart beat faster, and she quickly clicked on it.

Gu Qingyun: [Sit in the corner and do what. ]

Tong Yao was stunned for a moment, does she still know where she is sitting? ?

Can't help but look up.

Not far away, he was meeting her gaze.

Gu Qingyun stood among the colleagues who surrounded her in twos, turned her face slightly, and bent her eyes.Then, he raised his hand and brushed the broken hair behind his ear.

Hooked her.

Tong Yao: "..."

Cursed, why didn't she blow the whistle to call? ?

But the corners of his lips still subconsciously twitched.

She glanced at Jiang Junwen across the way, "Honey, play by yourself."

Without waiting for a response, he got up and went to Gu Qingyun's place in a hurry.

Jiang Junwen raised her eyes from the phone screen, "Huh?"

"..."



When Tong Yao walked up to her, she remembered that they seemed to be still in a "cold war", so she couldn't help but twitch.

Holding a wine glass and trying to pretend to be passing by.

"Come here," Gu Qingyun grabbed the strap at the back of her coat with one hand, while holding her like this, he smiled at the colleagues around him as if nothing had happened, raised his wine glass, and finished the scene in a dignified manner.

Tong Yao: "..."

She was fortunate that she came back after drinking, she was already blushing, no matter how shy she was, that was it!

Gu Qingyun didn't say anything.

Carrying Tong Yao, he took her all the way to the empty seat next to her and sat down.

Tong Yao looked around in a blink of an eye, how could it be farther than where she and Jiang Junwen were sitting just now.

From this angle, the tables were blocked by the pillars at the corner, and the stage could not be seen at all.And the light is very dim, and people who are two meters away can hardly notice it.

Gu Qingyun sized her up, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "The little girl from the finance department is your good friend? Is it okay to leave her there?"

Tong Yao didn't think for half a second, "It doesn't matter at all."

Gu Qingyun smiled lightly, "Okay."

Putting down the cup, he looked at Tong Yao's red cheeks, "How much did you drink just now?"

"Two glasses of... champagne."

She was actually drinking red wine.

Just looking at the shallow lip marks on Gu Qingyun's cup, he subconsciously said something wrong.

Drunkenness welled up.

Tong Yao is actually very poor at drinking.

She raised her eyes, looked at the air conditioner that was blowing hot air at her, and complained, "...it's so hot here."

"Then would you sit down?" Gu Qingyun stepped aside.

"..."

Tong Yaozhen stood up without saying a word, sat next to Gu Qingyun, and smirked, "It's better here."

Drunk, but obedient.

Gu Qingyun smiled, "Are you going to ask Luo Zihang for the invitation letter?"

"He put it on my table by himself," Tong Yao shook her head, and answered whatever she asked, "He wants to pick on my good friend!"

After finishing the sentence, he laughed again, "It's a pity that he is so stupid, he gave me the invitation letter, so he can't come in and play with Jiang Junwen."

"He's in."

"what?"

"Did you see someone check when you came in?" Gu Qingyun stretched out his hand, brushing a strand of hair that was messed up in front of her eyes behind her ear, "The invitation letter is only for drawing a lottery, it has no other use."

"Oh," Tong Yao nodded.

She was a little thirsty, reached out, picked up the wine glass in front of her, and took a sip.

Moved just now.

That was Gu Qingyun's wine glass.

"..."

Tong Yao didn't have this insight at all at this time, she just vaguely thought why the taste of this wine was different from the one just now.

She was in a daze.

Holding the cup, she took small sips, all stacked on the blurred lip print.

Gu Qingyun didn't speak, and his eyes moved slightly.

"..."

Tong Yao quickly finished the glass of champagne, put down the empty glass, her eyes were heavy.

She closed her eyes and leaned on Gu Qingyun's shoulder.

"I'm so sleepy," Tong Yao didn't have enough sleep, and she was busy with things these days, and she stayed up until dawn this morning to catch up on the drawing.After a few glasses of wine, the drunkenness made me sleepy.

Tong Yao was so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open.

Holding her in his arms, he didn't pay attention to Gu Qingyun's expression at all.

Getting too close, I could smell the faint fragrance of her body.

He couldn't help but murmured, "...What kind of smell, it smells so good."

"Don't sleep here," Gu Qingyun paused, angry and funny, scratched her chin with his fingertips, "Get up, I'll take you home."

"don't want……"

Tong Yao didn't want to move, she was tickled by her fingers, she turned her face away in discomfort.

He closed his eyes and changed his position, still leaning against her.

Facing her, his lips pressed against Gu Qingyun's neck vaguely, and after a while, he rubbed against her like a kiss but not a kiss.The breath like a kitten sprayed on her shoulders.

Gu Qingyun froze for a moment.

The girl's soft embrace, body temperature and breath.

She didn't move, she still sat with her back straight and dignified.His face remained calm, but his earlobes were quietly pink.

"..."

after a while.

Gu Qingyun stared at her, and saw that her long eyelashes were covered with bruises, which were obviously accumulated for several days and nights.The tiredness that makeup can't hide.

Just a few glasses of wine, and fell asleep like this.

Gu Qingyun sighed vaguely.

Pull out your phone to check your email.Sit still and let her hold her.

Half an hour passed.

Tong Yao suddenly moved her body, and then rubbed her head against Gu Qingyun's chest. After adjusting her posture,

"..."

Gu Qingyun paused while checking the email.

Looking down, I saw Tong Yao's salty pig's hand was still resting on her lap, and the corners of her lips were raised, as if she had slept more soundly.

Frowning, he raised his hand to shoot it off.

The action paused again and again.

Turning his face away, he stared at her face for a long time.

I must have fallen asleep...

In the end, I couldn't help it anymore, reached out and pinched the soft flesh of her cheek, said in a low tone, "Little bastard..."
