My green plums are very sour

I used to be too lazy to cook when I lived alone, and occasionally I went back to cook something casually at night, and I settled it all downstairs at the company at noon. A box of bento or a fried rice was enough to fill my stomach.

Although there is a large shopping mall downstairs of the company, and there are many restaurants of various colors, but after a long time, I get tired of eating, and I can't choose one that suits my taste.

It just so happens that life has become more regular recently, and I cook dinner at home in the evening, so I simply prepared some more, and brought it to the company for lunch the next day.

During the period, Tao Songnian asked me out several times, asking me if I would like to go out to eat hot pot, but I refused because of this.She hasn't heard from her since.When I had some free time, I thought of asking her, but said that I went wandering with the intern who had a crush on her.

"Great kindness is hard to come by." Through the screen of the mobile phone, she could imagine her embarrassing appearance.

I rolled my eyes at her, and I don't know who swears that she is still a child and is not interested.

Tao Songnian was actually very aggrieved, and refuted me righteously: "Hey, it's hard for me too, okay? As a young child, if I directly reject him, it will hurt his young heart. Go for a huge blow!"

Naturally, I scoffed, complaining about her is a scourge.

-Why on earth do you have the nerve to laugh at me, obviously I have already lived a life of being a cook when I go home on time every day.

-...let's break up [goodbye]

I will never accept her statement.

Yu Fengchi's department is not on the same floor as ours, so we don't have much contact with each other, but I often bump into her, especially when eating.Generally speaking, everyone is more willing to act together with their colleagues in the same department. The more interactions they have, the more familiar they will become. It is rare for someone like Yu Fengchi to always act alone.She really doesn't seem to like being around other people much.

There's nothing surprising about that either.After all, colleagues are just partners at work, and they may not necessarily be able to chat together. Being friends also requires fate.Obviously, Yu Fengchi didn't plan to develop into friends with colleagues in the department.

The second time I ran into Yu Fengchi in the tea room, I was probably sure that she must have come here specifically to find me.This office building is rented by our company from the fifth floor to the top, and each floor is equipped with a tea room. If it is not deliberate, colleagues from different departments will hardly have the opportunity to meet.She has been in the company for a short time, and she is not familiar with the colleagues in her department, so it is reasonable for her to choose to have dinner with me.It's a friend of a friend after all.

It's not a bad thing to have someone to eat with, let alone people you know, so it's more normal to share a table.Yu Fengchi and I don't make special invitations, but we can always meet up when it's time for dinner.

Yu Fengchi was very self-conscious. When he saw me in the tea room, he would come straight over, pull away the chair opposite me and sit down, and then greeted like an old friend whom he had known for many years: "What food did you bring?"

What she ate herself was not home-cooked meals, but heated bento from the convenience store downstairs. The dishes were basically the same every day, just a few things over and over again.So Yu Fengchi would shake his head every time he saw the side dishes in my lunch box, with a look of envy and hatred on his face.It made me feel embarrassed, so I could only take the initiative to invite her to try my dishes.

In fact, I think I may have been tricked, and she is waiting for me here.

Sure enough, after a lot of times, she didn't need me to speak again, she just smiled at me with a shy face, and then came over to pick up food naturally.I didn't care about this little food at first, so I just brought some more, including her share.

I'm not sure if Ning Ran knows that Yu Fengchi and I work in the same company and we often have lunch together. I haven't mentioned it to her myself. I don't know if Yu Fengchi has told her.

Ning Ran's work is as busy as ever, but she seldom stays in the company to work overtime, and always comes back with her computer when the time comes, and continues to work after dinner.

Although it is a bit troublesome, but the diet is much more regular, and it is not so bad for the body.

In the evening, I came out of the shower and wiped my hair cross-legged on the edge of the bed. I rubbed it with a dry towel on my head, and my head drooped and almost fell to my thighs.

I was wiping the water when Ning Ran's cell phone in front of me suddenly lit up.Because the action of lowering my head brought the area in front of me into view, including Ning Ran's cell phone.She went into the bathroom after me to take a shower, and threw her phone on the bed.

Sneaking into other people's messages is not ethical, I know that, and have never done so.It's just a coincidence tonight.When the phone was turned on, I almost subconsciously looked towards the bright light, and I happened to see the content of the information on her screen.

- The boss said that you don't want to attend the meeting at the headquarters next week?Why?

- It's only been three days.

-It is said that the VC from the United States happened to come to visit, and they will participate in the meeting together at that time, which is a rare opportunity.

The person who sent the letter was Jessie, a very common English name. From the content of the message and the name of the person, it is not difficult to tell that it is Ning Ran's colleague.It seems that English names mixed with Chinese and English expressions are already standard for foreign companies like them.

Well, having a meeting with the big boss should be a very good experience, and Ning Ran has no reason to refuse, right?

I was focused on wiping my hair, so I didn't think about it any further, and when Ning Ran came out of the shower, tidied up and started to apply lotion, I yawned and asked casually, "Are you going on a business trip to the head office for a meeting? "

Ning Ran stopped patting her face, turned her head and looked at me with some surprise.

"Oh, you were in the shower just now, someone sent you a message, I just saw it." I glanced at the phone beside me, a little embarrassed, "I didn't mean it."

Ning Ran didn't seem to care about this, and he didn't express anything after hearing what I said.

"I see your colleague said that there is an opportunity to have a meeting with the big boss. Isn't that great?"

Ning Ran frowned slightly, her tone and eyes were a little light, "I don't intend to go."

"why?"

It seems like I asked a somewhat difficult question to answer.Ning Ran moved her lips but said nothing, her lowered eyebrows seemed a little hesitant.

"It's really strange. Do you still need to think about work?"

"Do you think... I should go?" The question was inexplicable.She has always been a person with her own opinion, when did she need someone else to make up her mind?

I couldn't guess what she meant, so I touched my chin and nodded according to my own thoughts, "There seems to be no reason not to go, right?"

Ning Ran's slender eyelashes drooped down to cover her eyes, she didn't know what she was thinking, and after a while she whispered "Mmm".

Although her behavior was a bit weird, I didn't take it too seriously, and I didn't think about it when I woke up the next day.

After two days, I brought food for lunch in the pantry as usual.Yu Fengchi also came over, the bento in his hand turned into a village-based set meal, and he still didn't seem to have much appetite.Not much better than what I brought.

I picked up a cup of herbal tea provided by the company and handed it to my mouth. I quietly raised my eyes to watch Yu Fengchi take off the bamboo chopsticks, and consciously stretched them out in front of me, picked up a chopsticks dish, and fed it into my mouth. Looking at me complicatedly.

"Ahem, did you put the wrong seasoning? Or did you accidentally pour MSG and sugar into the same jar?" Her face wrinkled into a ball of disbelief.

I took a sip of herbal tea, then put down the cup and shook my head with a smile, "I didn't cook last night's meal."

Ning Ran has become interested in cooking since she cooked white rice porridge last time. Whenever I go into the kitchen, she steals from behind my back. Last night, she took the initiative to ask Ying to cook two dishes independently.

Yu Fengchi thought about it as soon as he rolled his eyes, then he rubbed his temples with puckered mouth, stood up and patted my shoulder with his hands, and said in a very sad tone, "It seems that she really doesn't have much talent for cooking. Such a smart person How can people make such indescribable food."

"It tastes so bad that you can still eat it. It's really hard work."

To be honest, the taste is really not good, I just ate some to cheer her up.You can't just say that this dish is too fried to eat, right?Ning Ran himself didn't feel that something was wrong at all, after all, it was his first time cooking by himself, and his excitement could completely cover up the imperfection of the result.

I lowered my head and took a bite of the rice, "It's okay, she just had a whim, and you won't be able to eat when she goes on a business trip in two days."

I don't know what kind of nerves Ning Ran suddenly opened up, and now he decided to go to the meeting with him. He left on Sunday afternoon, saying that he expected to stay there for two or three days.

"Business trip—?" Yu Fengchi frowned and smacked his mouth, and immediately picked out these two words after I finished speaking, and the sudden soaring voice made me have to stop my chopsticks.

"Well, what's the matter?" I took out a tissue to wipe my mouth.

Yu Fengchi shook his head and clicked his tongue twice, then suddenly laughed, clasped his hands on the edge of the table, and stared straight at me, "Do you know what request she made to the company when she changed jobs?"

How could I know this.I have question marks all over my face.

"During the interview, she confirmed with the person several times that the nature of the job must not require business trips. It is best to be resident in the provincial capital."

"You know our major, right? It sounds quite high-ranking. If you find a job that matches your major, you will probably be a trapeze person. Business trips are commonplace. She jumped to the current company to do this job, which can basically be regarded as Changing careers, well, it’s actually a bit of a waste.”

After Yu Fengchi said these few words, he shut his mouth, spread his hands at me and shrugged, and didn't care what my reaction was, and just buried himself in his meal.

I haven't fully digested her words, and stuffed something into my mouth unconsciously, and the taste was not as pleasant as before.
