because i'm pretty

Li Yikai is a person who is not afraid of conflicts with others.

He can hang up the client's call, or confront Feng Xin in the conference room, and he doesn't even care much about forming a grudge with Lao Liu since then-because the results obtained from these are very clear, either to solve the problem, or to make a clean break .

But what about Heyuan Zhiming?

They sat diagonally across the table, with just the right distance between the leader and the new employee.In the morning, the two greeted each other, and the other party gave him a bottle of water; just now they clinked glasses and expressed friendly greetings to each other; right...

The decency between adults should be maintained here, and the one who interferes too much is the breaker of social distance.

He thought, maybe the other party didn't care about the conversation that day, or he had already forgiven him for his recklessness and crossing the line. In the future, if this working relationship continues, maybe it will always be like this.

"So boss," Sun Shanshan called Li Yikai, "Can you tell us the result of your negotiation with President Feng?"

"Yeah, let Shanshan get ready," Daqiao said.

"If she wants to cooperate with Lao Liu to serve DS's customers next year, she should start psychological training now."

"Don't gloat, if I cooperate with him, you should join too!"

"I have fallen out with him! How is it possible, and there is Xiaoyuan..." Daqiao quarreled.

Yuan Zhiming looked up at them, his face full of indifference. To him, it didn't seem to matter who he cooperated with or what he did.

Li Yikai said in a deep voice: "No, I told Mr. Feng that this project must either be rejected by the client's boss's unreasonable request, or let Team A take over, and Lao Liu will fulfill his promise, and all of us will withdraw."

"Boss, I love you!"

"No need", Li Yikai rejected all love, "Also be prepared that it may affect next year's bonus."

The gains and losses of work are clear and quantifiable, and Li Yikai never makes vague promises.

But Sun Shanshan's pity only showed for a moment, she shook her head: "It's okay, I believe we will have new customers next year!"

Li Yikai didn't say anything, Qin Xiaoen interjected: "That depends on how many receptions Kevin will have at the end of the year..."

It sounds like this is a very common thing, Yuan Zhiming thought as he lowered his head and ate his risotto.

When he returned to the company, he drew another faint golden light around the black hole emitting colorful lights, like a golden light shield, covering the ugly and weird black hole in a hazy dream.

In the afternoon, Qin Xiaoen began to arrange work and called Yuan Zhiming into Hongda's creative meeting.

The responsibilities of everyone in the conference room are clearly assigned—Qin Xiaoen is in charge of all creative ideas, Zhong Youyun and Yuan Zhiming share the copywriting and design execution under creative ideas, and the planner of JOJO cooperates with Li Yikai to complete the early strategy combing and planning.

A complete proposal will be completed by such a five-person team, and they still have three weeks.

But the team always seemed to take their time without Li Yikai present.

"Teacher Qin", JOJO took advantage of Li Yikai not entering the meeting room, pulled Qin Xiaoen and asked, "So why didn't you come this morning? I thought you had a fight with the boss."

Qin Xiaoen said concisely: "Li Yikai didn't let me come."

"why?"

"Pretend to be angry and sad so that he can negotiate with Feng Xin," Qin Xiaoen said.

A few people present suddenly realized that maybe Yuan Zhiming's expression on his face was too surprised, and Qin Xiaoen tried to give some confidence to the new employees: "Although our leader is scheming, he is very trustworthy."

Yuan Zhiming nodded with a smile, he thought he was very aware of this.

The feeling of joining a new job is not too bad. Yuan Zhiming doesn’t talk much but he is not stingy in expressing. Both work and interpersonal relationships are integrated very quickly. Later, Li Yikai also participated in the creative meeting. His thinking is clear and straight to the point. The divergent thinking of the creatives will also encourage everyone to give full play to their strengths.

The same is true for Yuan Zhiming, and even praised his proposal objectively.

Sounds like a perfect day.

If it wasn't for a WeChat message before get off work.

After Qin Xiaoen said that he could get off work if he had nothing to do, Yuan Zhiming packed his schoolbag and prepared to leave without hesitation. Before he left, he looked back at Li Yikai's position—he was not at his desk, and he might be called to a meeting somewhere else.

The silver-gray personal mobile phone lay flat on the table and lit up from time to time. It seemed that its owner was used to leaving it here in the cold during work.

Yuan Zhiming also checked the information on his mobile phone while going out slowly. Suddenly, he stopped and stood at the entrance of the company lobby to look around. After making sure that Li Yikai was not in sight, he left quickly.

Yuan Zhiming would not have taken a taxi if he had known that the evening rush hour was so congested. He stared at the WeChat group chat in the endless traffic, and the doctor would report the situation every once in a while——

"Two kittens suddenly developed a fever today. The preliminary judgment is cat plague, and they are under observation in isolation."

"Other kittens are fine"

"A kitten has respiratory failure and is being rescued."

……

"After the injection, I seem to be in better spirits."

"Well, I haven't eaten yet, and I'm not out of danger."

……

"Don't worry too much, we will be on duty for observation today, you can come over at any time"

……

When he finally got out of the car and opened the door of the pet hospital, the nurse was just taking out a small cardboard box.

Yuan Zhiming glanced at it and quickly put the lid on, asking, "Is the other one alright?"

They took him to the isolation room, under the warm yellow light of the incubator, such a small one was huddled in the corner, so weak that the ups and downs of breathing could hardly be seen.

The doctor gently broke the kitten's head and dripped some water into its mouth with a syringe, but almost all of it flowed out from the corner of the mouth, and there was no sign of swallowing.

Yuan Zhiming called it softly, the way he used to call them when feeding - the kitten rolled its eyes.

The doctor was a little surprised, saying that the master's encouragement would help it, and asked Yuan Zhiming to talk to it more.

Yuan Zhiming sat next to the incubator and kept watching, rambling to cheer it up, but he thought, he didn't even dare to touch them, and even if it wasn't for Li Yikai, he wouldn't know that these kittens were sick.

What kind of master is he, he doesn't know how to be close to them and take care of them.

As the night darkened, there was less traffic outside.

The door of the pet hospital was pushed open from the outside, and Li Yikai's anxious but restrained voice sounded: "Doctor, I'm sorry I didn't see the news, how is it?"

Yuan Zhiming heard the voice and came out. The incubator behind him was empty, holding a cardboard box in his hand.

Li Yikai's gaze quickly fell on his hand, Yuan Zhiming handed over the paper box and wanted to show him a look, but the other party quickly turned his head away, covered his mouth and nose and arched his back.

It was as if the breathing was held by an invisible hand, the airflow could not pass through the nasal cavity smoothly and enter the body, the brain was rapidly swollen and painful due to lack of oxygen, and hearing and vision seemed to be separated by a layer of methane.

Li Yikai seemed to hear Yuan Zhiming and the doctor asking with concern, he apologized in a hoarse voice, pushed the door out, stood on the cooled street, his chest heaved violently, swallowed the cold air, and felt alive again.

Yuan Zhiming ran out and handed him a bottle of water, but Li Yikai waved his hand and didn't take it.

Yuan Zhiming comforted and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it here. Have you brought any medicine?"

Li Yikai didn't answer, and after recovering, he raised his foot and walked towards the parking space on the roadside.

He looked unusually agitated, Yuan Zhiming followed behind him without thinking, and asked him if he was okay.

After spraying the allergy medicine skillfully, Li Yikai finally said the first sentence to him: "When did you see the news?"

Yuan Zhiming said: "I rushed over when I got off work..."

"Why didn't you call me?"

"I'm afraid you're busy." Yuan Zhiming felt that there was nothing wrong with it, "I thought I could handle it, and I didn't want to trouble you."

"Then I don't even have the right to know?" Li Yikai suddenly became more irritable because of this sentence, "Look at how many messages I have sent on your phone?"

Yuan Zhiming actually turned on the phone and looked at it, and after watching it, his voice became weaker: "I'm sorry, I... I didn't consider that you would be in a hurry."

After imagining the other party's mood, he asked again: "You, do you want to take another look?"

"What's the use, I think?" Li Yikai slammed the car door shut.

He has never had a pet before, and he always retreats three feet when he sees a furry animal. This is the first time he has approached him actively in 28 years. I will save the photos I received in silence, and I will look at them several times when I have nothing to do.

He didn't know that this kind of life was so fragile. It was fine yesterday, but it suddenly disappeared today.

He didn't even think that he would be so anxious because of their departure. Rationally, he knew that whether he came or not didn't matter, but he drove several times to snatch the road, just thinking about seeing the situation earlier.

He naturally knew in his heart that it was no wonder that Yuan Zhiming didn't have his mobile phone with him.

But seeing Yuan Zhiming holding the box steadily, he couldn't do anything in time, couldn't do anything, and didn't know anything.At that moment, I still couldn't suppress my emotions.

A voice told him that anger came from his inability to do anything about himself, but he didn't want to hear those lessons the moment he closed the car door.

Yuan Zhiming was startled by the voice, and quickly calmed down. Li Yikai had never lost his composure in such anger. He suddenly guessed the other party's misunderstanding, so he slowly and quietly looked into Li Yikai's eyes and said:

"The two kittens are out of danger. The test is not cat plague, so take them out of the isolation box and put them back to their original place. The familiar environment and smell can make them recover faster..."

Li Yikai heard these words.

But his brain refuses to process...

Just now, he seemed to have really lost his composure.

The pace of the first few chapters was a bit slow, and I finally wrote it here.

I tried to speed it up, but the two people's personalities are like this, and they can only open up if they slowly build up and accumulate.

They're all unhappy people (men can't be too fast)
