Chapter 4 The possibility of being seen by others

Fate is so wonderful sometimes. While waiting in line to check out, Chi Xia and Yu Ningze bumped into each other again. . She looked around, and from time to time she let out an awkward laugh from deep in her throat. But Yu Ningze just looked down at the phone screen, not paying attention to the scratching of the people behind him until the naughty boy standing behind Chi Xia took the shopping in his hands. The car pushed forward and hit her lower back hard. She stumbled and screamed inadvertently, hitting her forehead on Yu Ningze's thick back. The person in front of her immediately turned around and frowned. Looking at her, the ravine between her brow and the corners of her eyes was deeper than the Mariana Trench. The parents of the children behind her quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, my children are ignorant, are you not hurt? " Chi Xia tugged at the corners of her lips: "It's okay, it's okay. "When he looked back, Yu Ningze resumed his original posture, as if this episode had never happened. It was not enough to occupy even 1kb of memory in his memory bank. The team moved forward slower than a snail, Chi. Xia leaned her head forward and saw that the old man standing at the front was arguing with the cashier. She turned to look at the other teams. There were at least five people standing in each team, as if they were standing in the middle of a single-plank bridge. There was no choice, so Chi Xia chose to stand still. As if to pass the increasingly painful waiting time, she actually struck up a conversation with Yu Ningze: "Director Yu, do you live nearby? "Yu Ningze tilted his head and said softly "Hmm". Chi Xia glanced at the items in his shopping cart: whole wheat bread, eggs, broccoli... They seemed nothing to everyone. Among the appetizing ingredients, the bag of blue potato chips was particularly eye-catching. A Sanhao student who excelled in genetics secretly pierced her ears to prove her rebelliousness. She couldn't help but ask: "Director, don't you think so?" Are you having dinner after get off work now? "After speaking, she looked at the clock hanging in the supermarket. The hour hand pointed to eight o'clock. As expected, Yu Ningze still only replied with the word "um". He cherished words like gold, as if saying one more word would increase his physical strength. He felt like he fainted and fell to the ground. Chi Xia could only mutter like a one-man show: "Is the R&D department so busy... Is this considered exploiting employees..." He hadn't entered Halo yet. When she was in the company, she only heard that it was free and open, and both upper-level and ordinary employees could maximize their subjective initiative. But overtime...it seems that except for the R&D department, other departments are quite punctual at least. She looked at the entire department, except for the manager, and she didn't know which word stung Yu Ningze's nerves. Chi Xia saw a rare vivid expression on his face, and she put it on her face. Call it disdain. "It's only one month before the new product is released, and your operations department hasn't even come up with a complete plan. You might as well make a few more plans if you have the time. " Saying this from the mouth of Yu Ningze dressed up like this, somehow gave Chi Xia a sense of pretentiousness and comedy. If she hadn't seen his sharp tongue during the day, she might have laughed out loud now. Come. "If there is still no progress next Monday, your department will be the one working overtime." Like a lightning bolt above Chi Xia's head, she looked at Yu Ningze dully. How could such cold words come out of Thirty-Seven Degrees' mouth? She almost forgot that next Monday will be the last project seminar before koi goes online. The original plan was rejected several times, and if it was rejected again this time, it would really cost me my life. She was transferred to this troublesome project team as soon as she became a full-time employee. Apart from praying, she didn't know how else she could struggle. Chi Xia looked up again, and Yu Ningze had already turned his head. At this time, the team was slowly moving forward unknowingly, and it was almost her turn. In fact, she is not without ideas. For example, when she was on the phone with her mother just now, she was listening to her mother's nagging like she was chanting a mantra. The moment she was distracted, she had an immature idea. Blind date, or choosing a mate, is always an option that comes second to survival for women like her who work hard in big cities. Society does not give women the option of "getting married first and then starting a career." After starting a family, the increasingly difficult situation in the workplace makes them prefer to rely on their own hands to carve out their own future, rather than relying on love. A bursting dream bubble. Perhaps when it comes to promoting women, we can downplay the social aspect and focus on the cute painting style in the app and the gameplay of farming and raising pets? Besides, who said social software can only be used for dating? In a strange city, it is a wonderful thing to become close friends with people of the same sex! Thinking of this, Chi Xia couldn't help but take a step forward, almost putting her chin on Yu Ningze's shoulder, and asked in a low voice: "Director, is our game only one-to-one matching?" Yu Ningze seemed unaware. When Chi Xiahui suddenly discussed work-related matters with her, she immediately answered seriously: "There are one-on-one precise matches, and there are also random matches like parties." "I understand." She nodded: "We can start from the same sex Let's start with making friends." "Huh?" After Chi Xia finished speaking, she raised her head very proudly, but met Yu Ningze's eyes that looked like he was mentally retarded. The next second, she realized that what she said seemed to be somewhat ambiguous. So she immediately explained: "No, what I mean is that Koi's painting style and gameplay are good. In addition to the function of dating, it should also be very popular with women, such as tea parties, screenshots and photos... ...Besides, the purpose of making friends is not all about falling in love." Yu Ningze lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Continue." Encouraged by him, Chi Xia began to speak more unscrupulously: "Before. I saw that the construction function in a game played by my roommate was turned into large and small shops by many players, and businesses were started in it. Maybe this is also a kind of dream sustenance, shouldn't a good app be like this? While providing functionality, it can also serve as a spiritual world for users..." Before she could finish speaking, Yu Ningze raised his hand to interrupt her speech, and Chi Xia's heart suddenly sank. . Just when she thought he was going to hurt her again, the other party asked, "How long do you need to write this plan?" "Huh?" Chi Xia was stunned. What he means is that he agrees with his idea? Who? Is that Yu Ningze who was still criticizing me five minutes ago? She immediately straightened her back, spread her palms, put the back of her hands against her forehead, and saluted Yu Ningze. "Give me a week and I'll make sure to complete the task." Whether it was an illusion or the influence of the supermarket lights, Chi Xia seemed to see a smile in Yu Ningze's eyes. He still said in a tone that showed no emotion: "Okay, I'll see you at the seminar next week." She then realized that at this time, the cashier had already put everything Yu Ningze bought into the shopping bag. Waiting for him to pay. Yu Ningze quickly completed the payment and immediately disappeared from Chi Xia's sight. He didn't say goodbye to her, but she was in a surprisingly good mood. Chi Xia almost trotted all the way home. The previous irritability had long since disappeared, so she got into her room without even drinking a drink. In the living room, Su Yinuan shouted: "Chi Xia, are you taking a shower? If not, I'll take a shower first." Chi Xia only responded vaguely: "Okay!" Opening Word, the lines of words gurgled out like a faucet. The clear water seems to never dry up at that moment. Chi Xia was sweating profusely while writing, and even her cheeks were slightly warm. For a moment, she seemed to feel the mood of Yu Ningze who was working overtime, as if it was not just a job, but a possibility. The possibility of being seen by others. Her good mood and high energy lasted until mid-week, until when she got off work on Thursday, her mother pushed her the WeChat business card of the blind date man. And attached a voice message: "Xiao Xia, if you have nothing to do this weekend, I'll meet you for dinner, do you hear me?" It's okay... Chi Xia looked at the flashing cursor on the computer screen in front of her and fell into a trap for a moment. There was silence. She had no choice but to reply with the word "oh" to show her low mood and helplessness. Unfortunately, she thought her mother couldn't understand the quarrel between these young people. Chi Xia bit the bullet and added this man named "Holding Hands with You to Spend the Deep Winter" on WeChat. It didn't take long for him to apply as a friend. As soon as she added WeChat, the other party immediately sent her a [smile] emoticon, which caught her off guard. If I heard correctly, this man should be only three years older than me, so he is considered the same age. What does this smiling emoticon want to express?Resistance and helplessness towards blind dates? She asked tentatively: "Would you like to have dinner together on Saturday?" Holding hands with you to spend the deep winter together: "Okay, let's see what you like to eat." Just as Chi Xia was about to reply, the other party sent another sentence: " But let's talk about it first, we AA are all working people, so it's not easy for us to [show our teeth]" Seeing this, she retracted her hand when she opened a review app. Although I had expected it, I didn't expect that it would be a date that was destined to fail even if I didn't have to keep it. Chi Xia doesn't dislike AA, but thinks it's a good thing for young people to have a clearer understanding of each other, so as to avoid entanglements in the future. But this man's tone and attitude always make people feel very uncomfortable. It was as if I wanted to take advantage of him. So she randomly found an internet celebrity store in a shopping mall near her home and sent it, then put her phone aside, too lazy to reply. The next second, the voice of Operations Department Manager Fu Sheng came from behind. "Xiaochi, I just met Director Yu in the tea room." After saying that, he glanced at Chi Xia, seeming to be observing her expression. After seeing that she had no unnecessary reaction, he added, "I heard that you have a new plan?" Chi Xia turned his head and smiled stupidly: "No, it's just a little idea that's not very mature yet." Fu Sheng also laughed. Smile: "I'm being modest. An idea that Director Yu can approve of is not a small idea." She sat on her seat and touched her head, not knowing what to say. After all, she didn't know what Yu Ningze said to Fu Sheng, and whether the manager was praising her or hurting her. This guy Yu Ningze still can't be trusted easily. Seeing that Chi Xia didn't speak, Fu Sheng just patted her shoulder and said, "Do a good job and give our operations department some credit." Then he returned to his seat. Chi Xia continued the unfinished plan, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. After thinking about it and savoring it over and over again, even the original inspiration was gone.
