salt by salt

I usually pay attention to my words and deeds at work, and I don't like absenteeism without reason, so I never deliberately sent Yang Chen away.

During this period of time, he obeyed his father's arrangement, abandoned all ostentation, did not take a private jet, and kept a low profile as much as possible to and fro.I got up in the morning to go to work, Yang Chen's assistant came to pick him up, we kissed at the door and then separated.If he leaves in the afternoon, just have lunch together, and there is nothing special to ask.

But this time I lay in bed and heard the sound of water in the bathroom.Soon after Yang Chen came out to change clothes, I sat up and said, "Your flight at 10:30? I'll see you off."

"Why?" He was a little surprised, "It's not the weekend, you don't go to the company?"

"I'm the boss, and no one will deduct wages if I don't go."

Yang Chen raised his eyebrows, but he didn't insist on refusing, I guess he wanted me to give it away from the bottom of his heart.

To catch up with the peak traffic flow, how long it will take to drive on the road is not sure.I immediately got up and took a shower, when someone knocked on the door, I opened it with my toothbrush in my mouth.Xiao Yuan, whom he had met before, stood outside the door. He smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, good morning. I'm here to pick up Mr. Yang to the airport."

I asked him to come in and sit down, Yang Chen was already ready, and instead he and Xiao Yuan were waiting for me.Afraid of wasting time, I quickly packed up and went out.

As I expected, the road is extremely crowded, and the traffic jam in city B is force majeure, no matter how high your status is, you can only do nothing about it.Xiao Yuan was very nervous, looked down at his watch frequently, and looked at Yang Chen's face, for fear that he would get angry because of it.

Yang Chen was very calm, interlocking my fingers with one hand, gently stroking my palm with his slender fingers, and looking out the window with his chin propped up.I stared sideways at his quiet profile, and felt that some inexplicable changes had taken place in him, like a cloud of fog shrouded between us.

Maybe the next time we meet again, he and I will be completely different.

On the way the driver sent me back, I suddenly thought that the most obvious change was that Yang Chen lost a lot of weight.

Xu Yucheng has rarely come to the company to supervise, he has more important things to do.

The few exhibitions I have on hand are on the right track, and I am gradually able to deal with various situations proficiently, so I don't have to ask Tang Mo about everything.

Andre occasionally appeared in the company, begged me for a few kisses and then left.Yang Chen was so busy that the sky was dark, and there was lingering exhaustion in his voice, and the number of times he was suspicious of relationship problems was much less.Song Cheng contacted me every day, never mentioning what he was doing, but caring about trivial details, urging me to eat on time and take vitamin supplements every day.

The mode of getting along with the three of them strangely returned to the previous state.

Yang Chen talked to me about the slow progress of the project, and when I comforted me with nice words, I always felt a heavy weight on my chest, which was annoying; Andre was spoiled, and with the few meetings we had, he had to give in a little bit to do what he wanted , let him run amok; Song Cheng chatted about daily trivial matters, but I was used to reviewing every line I typed several times before sending it out, and I couldn't find the slightest sense of freedom.

It was as if there was a layer of shackles on his body, imprisoned by something.

The night before Wu Mian made an appointment to help me with my examination, I dreamed that Andre was smiling and waving at me. I chased after him, but he didn't know what he said to Yang Chen, and his figure slowly disappeared.Yang Chen turned his head and stretched out his hand furiously to grab my neck. I raised my head to beg for mercy, but saw Song Cheng standing tall and far away, his face blurred.

In the end they all disappeared, leaving me in a sleepy dream, like lying in a broken chess game.

After waking up, there was no intense emotion left, just feeling slightly dazed.It took me a while to realize that I was nestling on the carpet in the study, not the master bedroom where I lay down before going to bed.

It's coming again, it's really not good to continue like this, the next time it happens, maybe it will be in the company, and it will be regarded as a mental illness by the subordinates.As the sky was getting brighter, I didn't feel sleepy at all, so I simply poured coffee for myself, and held down the beating position of my heart through my pajamas.

The chest is very empty, and what was once filled has been drained unconsciously.

I went to see Wu Mian in the early morning of the next day, and there were nearly two hours before the appointment time, so I went straight to sit down in the lounge.The assistant in charge of making an appointment and registration was already familiar with me. He served cake and drinks and said to me, "Mr. Xu came very early today."

"I've postponed everything in the morning, I'm bored, so come and have a seat early."

I heard from Yang Chen that Wu Mian has top-notch character and medical skills, and his family background is good, he can be recognized by the second and third generations, so he is very popular.If it wasn't for his attitude of being responsible to patients and strictly controlling the number of appointments, the place would be overcrowded every day.

All kinds of troubles, sorrows and problems float above the warmly decorated room, waiting to be confided, appeased and contained.I often think that maybe when I walk on the road, everyone I meet has a secret and deep pain.

The assistant probably worried that I was bored, so he brought the book he was taking notes here and sat with me.

"Professional book?" I couldn't help smiling when I saw the lines drawn by various markers, "Being a doctor requires lifelong study, isn't it hard?"

"I have to study for everything. I have to prepare for the examination recently." He also smiled, "But studying medicine is really hard. If I don't have no talent, I would like to do business like Mr. Xu."

"A doctor is a noble angel in white, which is incomparable to other professions."

I saw a booklet of the Sixth Patriarch Altar Sutra in his book, and I was a little surprised and asked, "Do you believe in Buddhism?"

"Yes. If you can't calm down and copy a little bit, you can cultivate your morality."

I nodded and said nothing.Mr. Xu hates religious beliefs, and even the juniors don't take it seriously.I had contact with this aspect when I was doing things related to the exhibition of collections, but I was also not very interested.

"Very good, but unfortunately I don't know much about this aspect." I thought for a while, "I only know that 'form is emptiness, and emptiness is form'."

"That's a sentence in the Heart Sutra." The other party smiled, got up and took a book back, "I'll give you a copy, you can read it when you have time, and it will be a good relationship."

I wanted to refuse, but then I thought that sitting here is boring anyway, reading a book is better than playing with a mobile phone, and next time I meet a partner who believes in Buddhism, I can have a topic to talk about.So he took it with both hands and thanked him.

After checking with Wu Mian, he called me a few days later to inform me that I was suffering from the so-called "psychogenic amnesia", which made me feel ridiculous.

"Does it mean that I'm too fragile?" I was driving into the parking lot, holding my phone, dumbfounded, and repeated what Yang Chen said a few weeks ago, "How could this be?"

Wu Mian said softly: "Junyan, don't think so. This is a disease, anyone can..."

Later, when he heard that there were medicines available, most of the worries in my heart disappeared: "Is it okay to take medicine? That's okay."

"The main reason is that life is too stressful, which is a kind of spiritual self-avoidance behavior." He said, "Medicine can't solve the root problem."

"Don't make me ashamed like a lunatic."

As I parked the car, I thought to myself: The fundamental problem is that I am alive, how can I solve it?

After hanging up the phone, I happened to meet Hu Ru who had taken over Andre's work before. She said hello to me, and we entered the elevator together.

Both Hu Ru and Tang Mo were the first batch of employees recruited here, and their academic qualifications are comparable.Hu Ru's character is more out of character. At that time, I was in urgent need of a reliable think tank, so I chose the calm Tang Mo.

I have strict requirements for work, but I never pretend to be serious on purpose, so she often chats with me.As soon as he saw me, Hu Ru couldn't wait to start the topic: "Boss, have you read the latest social news?"

"Not yet, what's new?"

"It's all negative content, and it made me really angry." She said, "Did those people have their consciences eaten by dogs? They should have cheated medical drugs, and they should all be arrested and sentenced to death!"

"Don't get excited." I persuaded her with a smile, and my heart suddenly jumped.Originally, I had no interest in these things, but for some reason today I wanted to know more, and asked, "What is it specifically? Which company?"

"I can't explain clearly in a few words."

When the floor arrived, we walked out of the elevator one after the other. Hu Ru said, "It seems to be called Shoulin Pharmaceutical? Oh, I will send you the post summarized by the netizens later, and you will know after reading it... Boss, boss, how do you look?" So bad, is it hypoglycemia?"

I waved my hand, indicating that I don't need her to help me, and barely stood still: "It's okay, I suddenly became dizzy."

"I have sugar here." She flipped through her bag quickly, "Sit down and rest quickly, I'll make you a cup of hot milk tea."

"No need." I shook my head and smiled at her, "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night."

I walked into the office, and Tang Mo was sorting out files outside.Seeing that I looked sleepy, she quickly talked about today's arrangements, then backed out, and closed the door lightly.

I propped my forehead, took a few deep breaths, and took out my cell phone to make a call.It was connected quickly over there, and I didn't want to be tactful, so I said straight to the point:

"Brother Yucheng, something happened to Second Aunt's company, do you know?"
