Chapter 5, Runner

 Leng Yebai felt a little regretful. He had been imprisoned together for many days in his dream, so why didn't he ask her name in advance?

  Reaching out and pressing his temples again, Leng Yebai took a deep breath, feeling that he was stunned.

  That's just a dream.

  How could the person in the dream be real?

  Leng Yebai exhaled slowly, stood by the window of the building and looked down.

  People were coming and going downstairs, just like every day, everyone was busy.

  Suddenly, Leng Yebai's eyes widened and he took a step forward, his eyes almost touching the window.

  Downstairs, a girl and a boy were chatting and laughing as they walked past the building.

  The outline was so blurry that Leng Yebai couldn't even see her eyes, but his heart couldn't help but beat.

  That girl's face was so familiar that it was always imprinted in his mind. He had seen it before.

  Just in that absurd dream!

  She said, why not, let's die together!

  Leng Yebai took a deep look at the girl downstairs, and then strode out of the office.

  As they walked, Leng Yebai started running.

  The elevator is still on the first floor, and he is on the eighteenth floor.

  Leng Yebai didn't have time to wait for the elevator to come up and ran towards the stairs in large strides.

  His heart was beating hard, but he didn't know why.

  He walked down three or four floors, but there were still stairs going down one by one in front of him.

  For the first time, Leng Yebai felt that the building was too high and the stairs were too long.

  The suit on his body restricted his behavior. Leng Yebai unbuttoned the suit with one hand and took the suit jacket in his hand, but the movements of his feet did not stop.

  Sixteenth floor, tenth floor, fifth floor...

  When Leng Yebai ran to the first floor, his stern face was covered with sweat.

  "Mr. Leng, what do you need?"

  The security guard on the first floor asked the CEO cautiously as he ran out of the stairwell.

  "No need!"

  Leng Yebai replied coldly, without pausing at all, he quickly walked towards the door.

  The security guard scratched his head, looked at the stairs in surprise, and then at the elevator that was operating normally.

  "The elevator isn't broken! Why is Mr. Leng so anxious about something?" the security guard muttered quietly.

  Leng was always the most serious person in the whole building, and he had never seen Mr. Leng acting so out of sorts.

  At the door of the building, Leng Yebai held his suit and quickly glanced at the door of the building with his eagle-like eyes.

  The figure of the girl just now disappeared.

  "Mr. Leng, may I ask you -"

  A man glanced at Leng Yebai, who was breathing heavily, in surprise, and hurried over to talk to him.

  He is just a small employee of Wangyang Company. If he can catch the eye of the president, he will definitely be able to rise in the future!

  "Get out of the way!"

  Leng Yebai glanced coldly at the man who was approaching, and strode towards the direction the girl had just walked in pursuit of him.

  The man was frightened by Leng Yebai's cold eyes and stood still.

  Leng Yebai ignored the surprised looks of others, stared straight ahead, and ran from the street to the end of the street regardless of his image.

  Leng Yebai has an outstanding face and is dressed in a professional suit, giving him the air of an ascetic male god.

  Such an outstanding man ran up and down the street, attracting the attention of a group of people.

  Leng Yebai didn't care about the looks of those people at all. His steps were getting faster and faster, his eyes fixed on the front, always feeling that his steps were too slow.

  Upstairs opposite Wang Yang's company, Bai Yifan looked curiously at the man running downstairs with a suit, tilting his head slightly.

  "Sister, why is that person running around on the street?" Bai Yifan glanced at Leng Yebai again curiously.

  Bai Xirong was pushing a cart full of rice noodles and snacks. She took a moment to look downstairs and only had time to see a tall and upright figure.

  "Maybe the kittens and puppies he raised are lost. Don't worry about these details. Go and push another cart. Let's buy more!"

  The more serious man who looks serious may secretly like little ones. Animal shit-scraper.

  Bai Xirong only glanced downstairs, and then looked at the dazzling array of products in the supermarket with bright eyes.

  Chocolate, bread, cans, drinks...

  any of these things would look better than the man running downstairs!

  "Oh!"

  Bai Yifan walked obediently towards the place where the stroller was, thinking that he would get a few more cans of milk powder and diapers later.

  Just buy seven or eight pacifiers and that's enough!

  The siblings returned home with a full load. Because they bought too much, they had to ask the local courier to send them home.

  The two of them refused to keep their hands empty, and each carried two large bags of snacks.

  This battle completely drained Bai Yifan's treasury.

  When the two of them were walking home from the supermarket, Bai Yifan bumped into Bai Xirong and pointed to the door of the building opposite.

  A tall man walked slowly into the building, his back looking a little lonely.

  "Sister, he is the runner!"

  Bai Yifan whispered in Bai Xirong's ear.

  Bai Xirong glanced at the man's back and shrugged, "There's no need to run too much now. Everyone will be able to run in the future."

  If he couldn't run away, he would become a zombie's meal.

  Bai Yifan sighed and silently carried the milk powder he chose for himself. Only milk powder could give him spiritual comfort.

  "Hello, Mr. Leng!"

  The security captain greeted Leng Yebai with his head held high.

  "Bring out today's surveillance."

  Leng Yebai rubbed his temples, with a trace of tiredness on his usually cold face.

  Is it really just a dream of my own, that person is my own figment, is there really no such person in the world?

  Regardless of his image, he ran back and forth on the street several times, attracting the attention of many people, but could not find that person.

  Could it be that my obsession is too deep and I have hallucinated?

  "Yes!" The security captain saluted and trotted towards the security room to mobilize surveillance.

  "Mr. Leng, what are your orders?"

  A man in a suit scratched his head and secretly glanced at the sweat on Leng Yebai's forehead.

  Everyone in the company went crazy, and Mr. Leng was running wildly on the street in broad daylight!

  All it takes is one piece of clothing to run naked!

  "Secretary Zhao, move my office to the first floor."

  Leng Yebai glanced at the elevator and walked toward a vacant room on the first floor.

  The large window of that room faced the street outside the door, and no matter how much soundproofing was done, it could not block the hustle and bustle outside.

  After all, right opposite the main entrance is a large chain supermarket, and the bustle outside can easily affect your mood at work.

  This office has been vacant. I didn't expect that such a cold person as Mr. Leng would come to work here.

  Secretary Zhao looked at Leng Yebai's back with confusion and responded quickly.

  "Mr. Leng, I'm going right now!"

  After saying that, Secretary Zhao trotted towards the elevator and waited for the elevator.

  On the other side -

  Bai Xirong and Bai Yifan were slumped on the sofa, with snacks piled in front of them and a lot of rice noodles and oil piled at their feet.

  With a wave of Bai Xirong's hand, all the food in the room was put into the space, and then the two of them disappeared.
