The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Chen walked back to Wenming East and went downstairs. The door downstairs was ajar as always. Zhang Chen pushed the door open, turned around and closed the door, and then walked inside.

When he walked to the second floor, he saw that Gu Shufang had already reached the stairs of the third floor, and said with resentment and pity: "Why are you coming back now?"

Zhang Chen looked at her expressionlessly, without saying a word. He walked to the door of his room, opened the door, walked in, and closed the door smoothly.

He opened the closet and took out the clothes he wanted to change. At this time, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Zhang Chen turned to look at the closed door. The knocking on the door continued. Zhang Chen ignored it and took off his dirty clothes and pants one by one and threw them into a plastic bucket.

The knocking on the door continued, getting louder and louder.

Zhang Chen still ignored it. He put on his clothes and pants neatly one by one, took a deep breath, picked up his bag, and then opened the door.

Gu Shufang stood at the door, a little sullen, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

As she said this, she wanted to go inside the door. Zhang Chen turned sideways, walked past her, and walked into the office opposite.

Gu Shufang was stunned for a moment and then followed.

Zhang Chen walked to his desk and sat down. Gu Shufang came over and stood beside him, staring at him.

Zhang Chen took out the receipts that he had stuffed into his bag last night and divided them into two stacks. Without raising his head, he tapped the two stacks of receipts with his left hand and told Gu Shufang, "This is for reimbursement, and this is for arranging funds." Typed out.

When Zhang Chen spoke, his tone was cold. After he finished speaking, he remembered something and continued: "By the way, I will pay you for the reserve fund that Cao Guoqing received from you."

Zhang Chen opened the drawer, took out a payment receipt from the drawer, and filled it out.

"What are you doing?" Gu Shufang clasped her hands on her chest, looked down at Zhang Chen and asked.

Zhang Chen continued to write without saying a word. Gu Shufang took a heavy breath and asked: "Tell me, what do you want to do? Where did I offend you?"

Zhang Chen shook his head without saying anything.

Gu Shufang was furious. She swept the documents to the ground and shouted almost hysterically: "Tell me, tell me, tell me! What are you going to do?!"

Zhang Chen ignored her and continued to fill in the payment receipt. Gu Shufang reached out and snatched the pen from his hand, broke it with a "snap" and smashed it to the ground.

Her face was flushed with anger.

Zhang Chen raised his head and looked at her quietly. Gu Shufang saw that his face was pale and there were tears in his eyes.

Gu Shufang sighed, softened her tone, and asked, "If you have anything to say, can't you tell me?"

"I don't want to say it." Zhang Chen shook his head, was silent for a while, and then continued: "I don't want to continue like this."

"What's the meaning?"

"It's over. Between us, I think it should be over."

Gu Shufang was stunned for a moment, biting her lip, and then asked after a while: "Why?"

Zhang Chen lowered his head and remained silent. Gu Shufang sighed again. She said softly: "Even if I die, you have to let me die clearly, right?"

Zhang Chen raised his head and looked at her, and said to her cruelly: "Last night, I saw you going to Haicheng Hotel..."

Gu Shufang's face turned pale. She stood there, trembling all over, almost unable to stand. There was no need to continue talking. At this moment, Gu Shufang also understood. She staggered a few steps and walked to her office. She sat down at the table. For the first time, she didn't wipe the table and chair with her hands.

Both of them were silent. After a long time, Gu Shufang sighed almost in a whisper: "That happened a long time ago."

"I know." Zhang Chen said.

Gu Shufang shook her head and said, "You don't know, I was alone in Haicheng at that time, helpless. Besides, I am also a woman, a young woman, and I also have normal physiological needs."

"I understand, so I'm not angry." Zhang Chen said.

"Do you understand? What do you understand?" Gu Shufang sneered, "Do you know how difficult my life is? Besides, I want to end it. Really, after meeting you, I only have you in my heart, and I also I want to be single-minded and only good to you, but at this time, I can't..."

"Yes, you can't." Zhang Chen sneered, "He is still valuable to you, and so am I."

"Don't say that." Gu Shufang almost begged, "Whether you believe it or not, I have never thought of using you. Why should I use you? I just need to keep you stuck. Anyway, I have nothing to do with the construction site. all know……"

"Of course, I'm still wondering why he runs to me every day. It turns out he has a mission." Zhang Chen continued to sneer.

Gu Shufang shook her head: "No, really, he doesn't know our relationship. I never asked him to spy on you or watch you."

"Well, it doesn't matter anymore. Whatever he or you want to do has nothing to do with me."

The two were silent again. After a while, Zhang Chen heard Gu Shufang's sobs. Gu Shufang said: "I have never begged anyone. Really, in a few months, I beg you. In a few months, I beg you." In a few months, everything here will be over, and we can go back to Suzhou..."

"But I don't want to go back to Suzhou with you. I'm fine here. Why should I go back to the mainland?" Zhang Chen said.

Gu Shufang was stunned, and after a pause, she continued: "Okay, we won't leave Hainan, we will go to Sanya, Wanning, Danzhou, Wenchang, wherever you want to go, we will go wherever you want, even if you want Go to Wuzhi Mountain..."

"Don't you understand? I don't want to be with you anymore!" Zhang Chen said coldly, "When I see you, I will think of him. I can't pass my own test."

Gu Shufang was shocked and sat blankly.

The phone rang between the two tables. The two of them were sitting, and neither of them reached out to answer it. The phone kept ringing for a long time. Gu Shufang wiped her tears with a handkerchief. After the ringing stopped, the two of them continued to stare blankly. Sitting on the ground.

Gu Shufang raised her head and looked at Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen lowered his head and looked at his desk. Gu Shufang wiped away her tears and said, "Raise your head and look at me."

Zhang Chen raised his head and looked at her.

Gu Shufang sighed and asked, "Is what you said true?"

Zhang Chen nodded.

"Tell me." Gu Shufang said, with a little hope remaining in her heart.

"Okay, then let me tell you clearly and clearly that what I said is true, I don't want to be with you!" Zhang Chen said coldly.

Gu Shufang bit her lip tightly. She stood up and said softly, "You will regret it."

She turned around and shouted again: "I will make you regret it!"

She walked out of the office door and went upstairs.

Zhang Chen sat there, the most difficult stage was over. He felt a little disappointed, but also a little relaxed. He grinned, shook his head, and said to himself, regret? I have nothing to regret. In a few months, we won’t even see each other again.

Although he said that, Zhang Chen still felt a little distressed when he thought that he and Gu Shufang were really over.

He stood up, picked up all the receipts on the ground, and placed a stack on Gu Shufang's desk. He didn't care about reimbursement or payment. You can divide it yourself. You can pay or not pay if you like. If you don't pay, it will be delayed. It's your own project. Aren't you eager to return to Suzhou?

Zhang Chen sat down in his seat, opened the drawer, picked up a pen again, continued to fill out the payment receipt, stood up, and placed it on top of the stack of receipts.

When he walked back, he stepped on the broken pen on the ground, looked down, and simply kicked it again.

He sat for a while and no longer wanted to go to the construction site. He felt that what he needed most now was to have a good drink.

Zhang Chen picked up the phone on the table and picked up Liu Ligan. After a while, the phone rang. As soon as Zhang Chen picked it up, he heard Liu Ligan yelling from the phone: "Where the hell have you been? You haven’t found it for a day.”

"I'm back to Wenmingdong."

"Get out! I just called for so long and no one answered."

"I'm in the room."

"Go away again, I sent you so many messages and you didn't see them?"

"The pager is in the room now. I'm in the office. Why is it so noisy over there? Where are you?"

"I'm in a small shop here in Dongmen Food Market."

"What the hell are you doing there?"

"Shopping for groceries, Meng Ping and I will treat him to dinner."

As Liu Ligan said, Meng Ping called from the side: "Zhang Chen, come here too. I can't find you in front."

"Okay, where to eat?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Seafood hot pot, Meng Ping's office. By the way, we are not far from you. Do you want to pick you up?" Liu Ligan asked.

Zhang Chen quickly said: "No, I'll go there by myself in a car."

"Okay, you can go now, we have bought it and are getting ready to leave."

"If you arrive first, just wait at the door. We'll add some more dishes. We're going to have a big meal today." Meng Ping shouted again from the side.
