A woman like Ode to Joy

"Is not it?"

The other party was silent for too long, Fan Shengmei asked back.But even if he asked, Tan Zongming, who was looking at her, still just looked at her without saying a word.

Looking at the time on the clock hanging on the wall of the living room, Fan Shengmei folded her legs, exhausted physically and mentally.

So, bringing her here is nothing but silence?Every time I talk about it, it ends without a problem in the end.

Isn't he eloquent?When is there only one sentence left that I disagree with?

She was so tired that she wanted to go home and rest, and she had no time to waste.

Standing up under his gaze, she leaned over to pick up and put away the shoes he had thrown aside. She stretched out her feet and put them in little by little, and the painful pain in the soles of her forefoot hit again.

I have worn high heels for too long today, from morning till now.

Looking at the person on the sofa for the last time, Fan Shengmei turned her head, her high-heeled shoes slamming, and she headed for the entrance.

"What do you want?"

The person on the sofa stood up following the words.

"Marry me now?" Then he approached Fan Shengmei a little bit, "To get a marriage certificate tomorrow? Is this the case when we have only been dating for two months before we are fully familiar with each other?"

One question after another came out of his mouth, and the tone sounded like he was saying another unreasonable and incomprehensible thing.

He was asking her, why are you in such a hurry?Is it bad to fall in love?

Isn't it good to go step by step?

Why do you force him like this?

"Correct!"

Fan Shengmei turned her head abruptly, "Yes, I am aggressive like this, don't you know that I have always been like this?"

"I've never thought about it that way! Don't always describe yourself in such a bad way." Tan Zongming grabbed her arm, "You don't always have to dig into a dead end. Many things need to be done step by step. Getting married is not as easy as you think!"

"I know it's not easy." She broke free from the restraint on her arm and took a step back, "So I don't want to force you, nor do I want to force myself..."

Tan Zongming almost laughed angrily, "You don't call it coercion..."

Quietly looking at the expression on his face, Fan Shengmei lowered her eyes, "You can think whatever you want. However, someone with a vulgar personality like mine, low self-esteem and insecure is really not suitable for you. Someone who can stand by your side People, at the most basic level, should be like Andy, who will not be surprised for one reason or another. Besides, I know, you will definitely not marry me." This is indeed what you said, marriage It's not that easy.

"I don't want to fall in love anymore."

After saying that, she looked up at him.

There were not many lights in the living room, and the man was facing the dark place with his back, as if blending into the black, the faint light from the entrance shone on his silent face, his resolute lips were tightly pressed, as if he was holding back something, His eyes fixed on her, as if he was looking at her expression, looking for the lies on her face.

However, in the end, there is only exhaustion and stubbornness.

Slowly frowning, his heart was filled with deep tiredness.

"Is that what you want?" he asked.

what i want...

Trembling eyebrows, listening to his sigh-like tone, as if sighing on the tip of her heart, with a premonition and compromise.

Gritting his teeth, he nodded.

Yes, that's what I want.

what do you want to say……

Looking at his face, I suddenly felt a little scared, and my eyes couldn't help but stare at his lips, looking at the shape.

He sighed again and said softly, "Well, let's break up."

Well, let's break up.

This voice is all too familiar.The words she said just flew into her ears lightly.The house was too quiet, the voice was too clear, Fan Shengmei could hear it too clearly.

Let's break up.

separate……

Blinking, looking at the face.

He agreed.

It's just that, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little dazed, and felt a little more helpless and powerless in his heart.

He said yes...

—————Boundary line—————

Fan Shengmei officially joined the job, and within a month, she joined the job with Manager Lu's excellent assessment and evaluation. The manager's employment certificate, etc., and all kinds of certificates are also complete.

On the day of signing the new contract, colleagues all congratulated Fan Shengmei and were very happy.After all, everyone can see Fan Shengmei's hard work, and it is a sincere blessing for her to become a regular in one month.

"Sister Fan, you are really good! There are so many things that managers can learn, even our front desk staff have to learn. You can learn so many things at once. I didn't expect you to be able to do it in a month. It took me a lot to learn the front desk. It's only been two months since I started work. There are so many details..."

Fan Shengmei smiled and was praised by her.

She had no experience in hotel management before, because she had to work the night shift. After all, she was not promoted from the front desk, so sometimes when something happened to the front desk and she needed her to take over, she had to do so.

So they all said that she became a full-time member very quickly, and even Manager Lu said that, saying that she was the lobby who became a full-time member the fastest.

"Okay, don't praise me anymore, I'll be embarrassed if you praise me again. By the way, are the guests of 1888 going to check out today? Did you call Yuli?"

"Come on, I've been living here for half a month, I'm really rich!" Du Xiaoran sighed.

Fan Shengmei's eyes flickered, but she didn't answer.

you do not say?rich people.

The 1888 guest they were talking about was Mr. Tan, who lived here for about half a month.I was supposed to leave the store ten days ago, but I didn't expect to suddenly say that I would stay again.

When Fan Shengmei is on duty, she often meets Mr. Tan.

Because after knowing that he was Tan Zongming's grandfather, he avoided it many times and tried not to meet him face-to-face except for special room service.Even in emergencies, we no longer take the passenger elevator, but use the staff elevator as much as possible.

Obviously they broke up, and she didn't even know why she was avoiding her now.

Is it just because of that sentence?

Come to think of it, that woman also took great pains to prevent her from being with Tan Zongming. She spent so much energy and saliva, and even poked at her dead point.

She has almost no parry ability.

Fan Shengmei smiled wryly.

"Did you say who's coming?"

When Fan Shengmei asked suddenly, Du Xiaoran was taken aback.

"Huh? Did you say 1888?"

"correct."

Du Xiaoran shook his head, "No, most people don't know how to say it." Feeling confused, "Sister Fan, what's wrong?"

Fan Shengmei smiled, "It's nothing, I think that old man is in his eighties..."

Du Xiaoran suddenly realized, "Oh~ it should be his grandson, the last time his grandson sent him back, he returned the room card to me..."

Fan Shengmei didn't ask any more questions.

"Shengmei! Come with me." The engineer in the distance suddenly strode up and waved to Fan Shengmei.

"what happened?"

The engineer looked anxious, "The supervisor is not here, there is something wrong with a VIP, please help to solve it!"

Fan Shengmei became anxious when she heard the words, and strode forward. The engineer pulled her up the passenger elevator and went straight to the 18th floor.

"Which VIP? What's the situation?"

The engineer explained the general situation. In the final analysis, the guests were messing around, but it was difficult for the engineer to deal with it. It was originally the responsibility of the room supervisor, but the room supervisor went out to do business temporarily, so he had to find the lobby.

On the 18th floor, Beauty Fan Sheng ran into a familiar face as soon as she stepped out of the elevator.

"Hello."

"Hey, Xiao Fan!" The visitor was still smiling.

Unfortunately, it was Mr. Tan.

Fan Shengmei smiled politely and exchanged greetings, but she didn't show any familiarity. She was planning to deal with the VIP guest's affairs after a few polite words, but she didn't want the old man to say something suddenly.

"I have something to ask you for help in a while, so you come to the restaurant to find me."

After the old man finished speaking, he entered the elevator with a smile on his face, but Fan Shengmei was at a loss.

help?

What are you busy with?

But there was no time to think too much, she was in a hurry to deal with the matter of the VIP, and hurried inside following the project.

"Today is troublesome enough. Why did I encounter such a thing when the supervisor left without dying?" The project was also tiring. The most important thing was that it was not within the scope of his duties. on him.

Fan Shengmei, who had pretended to be her grandson in front of the VIP for a long time, also smiled wryly, but fortunately, the matter was settled, and the VIP didn't bother them.

"What kind of boss's friend are you talking about? Heh! You are so arrogant, pointing fingers." The engineer rolled his eyes.

Seeing this, Fan Shengmei smiled, "Okay, it's fine as long as the matter is settled."

Engineering sighed, "Okay, at least it's resolved. Oh, by the way, didn't there be a VIP looking for you just now? Was it to go to a restaurant or something?"

The two were standing at the elevator entrance, when the engineer suddenly remembered what he said, and Fan Shengmei was taken aback.

Mr. Tan...

"Oh, yes. If you don't tell me, I haven't remembered yet." She turned to the engineer and said, "Then you can help me make a meal, not too much."

This time point is the time for employees to eat. The kitchen has already prepared staff meals, and you need to line up to prepare meals yourself. After the time is over, the staff restaurant will collect the meals.Fan Shengmei didn't want to eat instant noodles, so she had to ask Engineering for help.

The engineer waved his hand and smiled, "Okay, then go ahead, I'll go to the staff elevator."

Fan Shengmei said, turned down the volume of the pager, entered the elevator and clicked on the restaurant floor.

I don't know what the old man wanted from her.

Leaning against the elevator wall, Fan Shengmei was full of worries, and she didn't want to see Mr. Tan, especially after knowing that he was Tan Zongming's grandfather, she couldn't face it naturally with a very professional attitude.

Tan Zongming, probably hasn't mentioned her to the old man.

Thinking of this, Fan Shengmei couldn't help laughing at herself, worrying unfoundedly.There's nothing to say about that.

Before getting out of the elevator, Fan Shengmei made her way to the Chinese restaurant and walked through the western food area. Not far away, she saw Mr. Tan ordering dishes and sitting there.

Fan Shengmei was walking there, and it happened that Mr. Tan, who was still looking around, turned his head and saw Fan Shengmei, so he smiled and waved to her.

Fan Shengmei responded with a smile, and found out after walking in that the old man ordered four dishes and one soup, but the rice was not even served, and the dishes seemed untouched, until Fan Shengmei was greeted to sit down, he waved to the waiter to come over, served the rice, or two share.

Fan Shengmei was slightly surprised.

This is, waiting for her?

"Haven't you eaten yourself?"

The waiter moved quickly, and the old man nodded as soon as the rice was served, "Seeing how busy you are, I guess you haven't eaten yet, so I just wanted to have dinner with you." Saying this, she wanted to put the rice in front of Fan Shengmei, and Fan Shengmei quickly took it from her Come.

"However, today is my treat! You are not allowed to move!" said the old man.
