Bai Yueguang he bent suddenly

The moonlight poured down from the half-opened window, spreading like mist and veil in the corner of the study room, reflecting the light of the computer screen on the desk, and outlining the elegant figure in front of the desk.

After writing a manuscript, Sha Ou sent the document to the editor's mailbox. After the web page indicated that the sending was successful, he raised his hand and rubbed his numb neck.

Over the years, writing at a desk for a long time has inevitably caused some diseases in his shoulders and necks. Sometimes he sits at the computer desk for a long time, and the joints in his shoulder bones feel like needles, which are painful and numb.

The computer screen was still stuck on the interface that the email was successfully sent. Shaou got up from the desk, picked up the half-empty water glass at hand, and was about to get a glass of warm water. When he turned his eyes, he landed on the mobile phone beside him.

After waiting for two seconds, he put the water glass back, picked up the phone, and nestled back into the computer chair.

Turn on the phone, and the screen shows that it is ten past eleven in the evening.

Lu Weiming left around 02:30 in the afternoon, almost nine hours from now.

Nine hours is a drop in the ocean compared to ten years, but when I suddenly look back at the relationship between the two of them, I suddenly feel... It's been a long time.

Sha Ou thought, since he was the one who took the initiative to say to try, then...if he took the initiative to make a phone call or something, wouldn't it be too abrupt?

He clicked on the call record, but his fingertip stopped a second before touching the screen.

Could it be too late, already rested?

Calling at this hour, will it bother you?

After thinking for a while, he exited the call record interface and opened WeChat.

Sure enough, there is a small red circle in the friend address book icon, which is a new friend recommended according to the mobile phone contacts.

Sha Ou clicked in and saw Lu Weiming's head portrait, with simple black and white characters and a cursive "Lu".

This time he didn't hesitate and sent a friend request directly.

As a result, in less than half a minute, the pair passed his verification request conveniently.

Sha Ou held the phone, slightly dazed.

However, after waiting for a while, the other party did not make any next move, only the system prompt on the chat interface - I passed your friend's verification request, and now we can start chatting.

So, this is waiting for him to say hello first?

Sha Ou bit his lower lip subconsciously, and found that when he was awake, facing Lu Weiming's deep thoughts that were different from the past, he would be a little nervous.

At this moment, the computer issued a notification sound for a new email. Sha Ou looked up and saw that it was a private email from the editor-in-chief of the publishing house who had invited him to participate in the current commentary writers exchange meeting two days ago.

Sha Ou put the phone aside, clicked on the email to check the content.

It turned out that the other party brought up the old story again, and invited him again to participate in the work of the judges of the annual newcomer evaluation on the second day of the exchange meeting. The sponsor will unconditionally satisfy the offer of a remuneration price.

Sha Ou frowned slightly, thinking that it was just to ask him to be a judge once, which is really not possible.

Moreover, he has always acted in a low-key manner in the industry for many years. This is not a question of whether he is paid or not, but he is too lazy to deal with it.

Just about to reply to a rejection email, Sha Ou suddenly withdrew his fingers from the keyboard.

The next second, he picked up the phone again, and typed two words in the chat interface that popped up.

"Didn't sleep?"

It was obvious that Lu Weiming's reply took less than half a minute, but he had no chance to feel flustered.

"No."

The simple and neat reply is very different from the style of writing a small composition ten years ago, completely different.

Sand Gull took a deep breath and continued typing.

"Is it convenient to chat?"

"can."

This attitude and tone...is it businesslike?

Sha Ou frowned, and in the next second, a voice request was sent directly.

And during the few seconds of waiting for the other party to connect, he suddenly returned to his original state——

What are you doing?

Childish and angry, or unwilling to be indifferent?

At this time, it was too late to hang up. After a few beeps, Lu Weiming accepted the voice request.

Sha Ou's language center was momentarily out of tune.

Lu Weiming's quiet and low voice came: "What are you talking about?"

The surroundings were quiet and the night was boundless, Sha Ou was stunned for a moment, and said: "I have something, I want to ask your opinion."

Lu Weiming Gujing Wubo: "What's the matter?"

Sha Ou leaned back in his chair and let himself relax slowly: "There is a publishing house that has been cooperating with me, and invited me to participate in a current review exchange meeting, and there is a selection activity in the middle of the meeting, and the other party wants me to be a judge."

Lu Weiming seemed to laugh very lightly, and asked, "Why, you don't want to agree?"

"Yeah." Sha Ou pondered for a moment, and said, "It's so troublesome. The three-day exchange meeting, if you don't want to be a judge, you can leave by showing up at the opening ceremony on the first day, but if you agree, it is estimated that you will have to stand up for these three days." up."

This reason... Lu Weiming laughed, but said: "Maybe it's not as exhausting as you imagined. If you don't try, how will you know?"

try...

Sha Ou seemed to be stabbed by his two words, but he didn't know whether the other party was on purpose or not, so he murmured: "Try..."

"En." Lu Weiming's voice was tinged with a smile: "Aren't you willing to take the initiative to try?"

In an instant, Shaou was sure—he did it on purpose!

"I..." Sha Ou was speechless for a moment, and then changed the subject in a timely manner: "So, you suggest that I agree?"

Lu Weiming was wearing a bathrobe at this time, lying on a soft and comfortable big bed in a high-end apartment, and asked without answering: "If yes, you agree?"

Sha Ou turned his head to look at the boundless moonlight outside the window, paused for two seconds, and gave a very soft "hmm".

On the other end of the phone, Lu Weiming's hand holding the phone slightly tightened.

Ten years ago, Sand Gull was not like this.

How proud he was at that time, a person who used to be so independent and principled, now said, "You suggest, I will do it."

Lu Weiming could not be said to be untouched, he sighed imperceptibly, and his tone softened unconsciously: "Then agree." Then suddenly his mind turned, and he deliberately asked, "Where will the exchange meeting be held?"

"In..." Sha Ou rubbed the edge of the keyboard with his fingertips, and suddenly thought of something, a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice softened: "In Beijin City."

About two seconds later, Lu Weiming's light laughter came from the phone: "So..."

"I'll go." Sha Ou said, "If you have time, can we meet?"

Holding the phone, Lu Weiming turned over on the bed, but said, "It depends."

"Okay." Sha Ou agreed very simply, without any sign of regret: "It depends on your time."

"it is good."

The two were silent for a while at the same time. Shaou looked at the time displayed on the computer and said, "It's late, go to bed early."

Lu Weiming said, "You too—bye."

"Goodbye."

After the voice hung up, Shaou took a look at the call time, which was exactly 6 minutes.

Whether the two were cautiously probing, whether they guarded the boundaries and did not dare to cross easily, as well as the unconscious warmth revealed from the bottom of their hearts, it was all in these 6 minutes.

A voice in my heart repeatedly warned, don't rush, take your time.

Putting down his mobile phone, Sha Ou replied to the other party directly by email, expressing his consent, and proposed that the other party would not need to pay additional judge remuneration.

Unexpectedly, the other party replied in seconds, and the gratitude almost overflowed the screen.

Sha Ou couldn't help being funny, is he so sincere?Are you sitting on your computer waiting for an email reply?

On Monday, Sha Ou just started the professional teaching of the school. After the last class on Thursday morning, he returned home, packed up his belongings, and went straight to the high-speed rail station.

The opening ceremony of the exchange meeting will be held on Friday morning, and he needs to arrive in Beijin City one night in advance.

It takes three hours to drive from Fengyu to Beijin by car, but it takes less than an hour to get there by intercity high-speed rail.

Xiaoou was too lazy to waste time on the road, so he chose the most time-saving way.

Get off at the station, the staff of the organizer of the exchange meeting have already got the news early, waiting at the exit of the station.

Sha Ou looked at the eye-catching "Welcome Teacher 24 to come and guide" sign held high in the staff member's hand, and the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously.

The meaning of the pen name is only known to him, and it is...inexplicably shameful to suddenly declare it in such a crowded place.

In the small suitcase with me are the formal attire and personal belongings that I will wear tomorrow. Wearing simple and neat casual clothes, Shaou walked to the pick-up staff. The other party greeted him warmly. He responded indifferently, and then followed the staff on the special car and came to the exchange. The hotel designated by the guests.

The guest check-in procedures were all handled by the organizer in advance. Shaou took the room card, and the reception staff took the suitcase in his hand graciously, and followed him all the way to the door of the room on the sixteenth floor.

Before entering the door, the other party did not forget to remind: "Teacher, tomorrow's exchange meeting will be held in the business hall on the third floor. It will officially start at 08:30. You can go downstairs 10 minutes earlier."

"Okay." Sha Ou thanked, and said again: "Thanks for your hard work."

"It's not hard, it's not hard!" The other party waved his hands again and again: "You have a good rest, dinner will be delivered to the room by a waiter."

Sha Ou nodded, but was a little surprised when he entered the door. If he remembered correctly, in the previous sessions of editorial exchange meetings, all the guests attended the hotel restaurant, and there was no service provided by the waiter's dining car.

As soon as he entered the door of the room, Sha Ou's sense of astonishment instantly increased——

The guests live in the top luxury suite? !

Sha Ou was stunned for a while, wondering that the organizer's reception standard was a bit too high. If he remembered correctly, he was also invited to participate in the last evaluation exchange meeting at this time last year, but at that time, he lived in only a The hotel is just an ordinary business suite.

So, is this special treatment for the judges?

Shaou put the suitcase aside, walked into the room, and found that there were fresh fruit plates on the coffee table in the center of the living room, and on the dining table in the small restaurant. After walking around, he found something new, not only dewdrops everywhere On the bedside table in the master bedroom, there is also a small photo frame with a small oil painting inside. On the vast and waveless river, a gull waded through the water, leaving circles of river waves dyed with the afterglow.

So, this is an exclusive suite specially prepared for yourself?

Sha Ou felt the organizer's careful arrangement, but felt that it was not necessary. After all, he had become a habit of being simple and casual for so many years, and he was a little unaccustomed to such a grand intention.

The one-hour intercity high-speed train ride was really not a tiring journey. After a short rest, the waiter who delivered the food rang the doorbell.

The two hotel waiters followed the dining car and entered the door. After greeting each other with a smile, they brought the dinner to the table one by one.

After confirming the ingredients, they are all things he likes to eat.

The dinner is exquisite, each dish is not much, but the dishes are rich, and the small table is filled with a variety of cold dishes.

The waiter left, and Shaou sat at the table, finishing the dinner with a sense of wonder.

At night, after taking a brief bath, Shaou lay on the bed and watched the detailed process of the exchange meeting sent by the organizer.

On the other side of the city, the H&H Group building is still brightly lit. Lu Weiming is sitting behind his desk, listening to the work arrangements for the next three days reported by the vice presidents sitting on the sofa in front of him, while wandering around, focusing on The dual use is brought to the extreme.

Starting from tomorrow, he blatantly used his power to arrange a three-day official holiday for himself, but although he was not in the company, he still had to arrange all the affairs properly.

At the end of the last vice president's report, Tina took over the meeting record from the CEO and handed it to Lu Weiming for his signature. , finally announced: "It's here today, let's get off work."

Several vice presidents let out a sigh of relief, followed the executive president and left one by one.

As the president's secretary, Tina naturally had to wait for her boss to get off work before leaving.

But... she was sorting out the documents signed by Lu Weiming today, and she glanced at the boss who was absent-minded when listening to the report and was still leaning on the back of the chair with furrowed brows. Wondering, the work arrangement is over, it's almost 10:30, and the boss still hasn't left?

Yep, my wish for an early beauty sleep today probably came to naught again.

"Tina." The boss behind her suddenly called her, and the gold secretary's keen intuition came online immediately, and turned around and asked, "Mr. Lu?"

Tina waited for the order, but found that the boss frowned and looked at her for a few seconds, and then there was a flash of embarrassment that she had never seen before?

"Cough." Lu Weiming coughed lightly, and after two seconds of mental construction, he suddenly asked, "I have a personal question, is it convenient for me to ask?"

private question? Tina was horrified in an instant. The boss, who has always distinguished between public and private and never allowed employees of the group to chat about private affairs during working hours, actually wanted to ask her a personal question?Also...is it a question?

Tina's heart pounded, and she smiled: "Of course, you said."

Lu Weiming has never discussed private affairs with the group's subordinates. Zhou Tezhu is in charge of his personal affairs more and knows his sexual orientation. It is not appropriate to ask him this question. As for Zhou Lingfeng and his four ferromagnetic... Lu Weiming Weiming didn't expect to reveal the clues of his feelings so soon, so after thinking about it, it seems that asking his secretary is the best choice.

Lu Weiming hesitated for a moment and asked, "Have you ever been in love?"

"Of course." Tina kept a decent secretary smile on her face, scolding her mother in her heart, saying that the boss, I am 32 this year, older than you, if it wasn't for your money, I would work day and night in the president's office Ma, don't talk about falling in love with me, the children should go to kindergarten.

"Then how do you and your boyfriend get along?"

Tina elegantly brushed her long hair from her sideburns, and replied, "It's pretty normal if we don't get along very much. After all, we all have jobs, and we don't have many opportunities to meet each other." Besides, she is a thousand times busier than her boyfriend.

Didn't get along very much, was plain, didn't meet much, and had a job... Lu Weiming felt that he had asked the right person.

He sat up slightly and put his hands on the table: "How long have you been together?"

"More than four years."

"How's the relationship?"

"It's okay." Tina smiled and said, "I just got a break last week."

Lu Weiming: "..."

Lessons learned from the past came unexpectedly.

"Sorry." Lu Weiming rubbed his eyebrows: "It's okay, you can get off work."

"Okay." Tina nodded, put the arranged materials into the file cabinet, and closed the office door for him very intimately before she left.

After the people left, Lu Weiming sat on the chair, tapping the mobile phone on the table with his fingertips.

Then, he picked up the phone, gave up the idea of ​​sending WeChat, and made a direct call.

The other party connected quickly.

Lu Weiming saw the mountain and asked, "Are you in Beijin?"

"Here we are, at the hotel." Shaou replied.

Lu Weiming got up, grabbed the car keys, pushed the door and went out.

"Are you going to rest?"

Sha Ou said, "Well, I'm going to sleep."

"Don't sleep yet." Lu Weiming walked to the elevator and pressed the down button.

"wait for me."

The author has something to say: Hey!I really didn't mean to get stuck here on purpose! ! ! !

Come chat, look forward to seeing you!

In other words, the manuscript box is really empty...
