Difficult round

Chapter 53

"What's the matter?" Gu Yan stood at the door of the conference room and asked inside.

What he asked was the secretary, but his eyelids flicked towards Shen Qi intentionally or unintentionally, the meaning was obvious - why are you here?

Shen Qi was also looking at him, the moment their eyes met, Shen Qi subconsciously lowered his head and stared at his toes.

Looking at it from Gu Yan's angle, one could see the back of his furry head, with a small bunch of hair curled up in sleep, his lips were tightly pursed, and his eyelashes trembled violently.

Secretary Zhang: "This is Mr. Gu. This is Shen Qi from the marketing department. Did you make an appointment with Director Jiang for our June [-] event? Xiao Shen came here to discuss this matter with us."

Gu Yan nodded.Thinking about it, there was indeed such a thing. Later, when he was busy, he forgot to explain it to Secretary Zhang.However, who would have thought that there are so many people in the marketing department, that unreliable guy Jiang Mingyang pushed Shen Qi over so that he could not die.

This is really...

He rubbed the center of his brows, and told the secretary, "Then you will have to work hard on this matter, and you can look at the arrangements."

Secretary Zhang nodded in response, and Gu Yan turned around to go back to the office. "Mr. Gu." Shen Qi, who hadn't spoken yet, stopped him.

Gu Yan paused and turned to look at him. "What's the matter?" His tone could not hear any joy or anger, which meant that he was doing business.

At this time, Shen Qi had already raised his head, and he pointed at Gu Yan with his mobile phone: "Mr. Gu, because this is the first time our two departments have held an event together, and it involves cost issues, so if there is any problem, I can contact you." Do you communicate?"

Just now Gu Yan has made it very clear that the matter of the event will be arranged by Secretary Zhang. It will be rude and offending for Shen Xi to ask this again, and it will make people mistakenly think that he does not trust Secretary Zhang's ability to handle affairs, and does not take care of The other party pays attention to it.But Shen Xi didn't care about these.

"No, if you have any problems, tell Secretary Zhang directly. If she can't solve it, she will report to me." After leaving this sentence, Gu Yan walked back to the office without stopping any longer, and closed the door.

Shen Qi subconsciously followed two steps, then suddenly remembered something and stopped.

——Shen Qi, don't cross the line, don't rush, don't cross the line, take your time, don't rush.

For some reason, Secretary Zhang felt that the atmosphere had become weird and awkward since the appearance of her director, but she had a big heart and a good heart, and Shen Qi's question just now didn't make her feel offended. Seeing the other party's expression now A little unnatural, probably because of being "frozen" injured by his own director, and he comforted him very intimately:

"Xiao Shen, don't mind, our Director Gu is... quite busy, so if you have any questions, just communicate with me directly."

"Well, I'll trouble you then."

In the following week, Shen Qi and Secretary Zhang used their lunch break to finalize the entire event plan. He deliberately chose the small meeting room in the design department for each discussion.It's just that he wants to use this opportunity to look at Gu Yan more.

But Gu Yan is not often in the office, he often comes back just before working hours, glances towards the conference room, and then returns to his office.

And at this time, Shen Qi also had time to go back to the marketing department. Sometimes the two of them would rub shoulders at the office door, and sometimes they wouldn't.

The only thing Shen Qi can do is to stay in the meeting room longer, longer, until Gu Yan's figure appears in the corridor, then he gets up, takes a look at the other party, or walks to the door to say hello to the other party.

Occasionally, Gu Yan would stay in the office to rest.However, the director's office cannot be seen from the meeting room, so this is not a good thing for Shen Qi, because it means that he may have to make a waste of a trip and miss the opportunity to see Gu Yan.

The person he could easily touch, kiss, hug, and see in the past has now become the moon in the sky that he can hardly get close to by doing everything possible, unattainable and unattainable.

Tomorrow is the Children's Day event. Several people checked the details in the meeting room for the last time. Before leaving, Shen Qi took the initiative to shake hands with Secretary Zhang and another little girl.This activity was planned by their department, as it should be.

"Everyone has worked hard this week."

"It's not hard, it's not hard." The girl in the design department has social cow syndrome, and she is full of energy every day, as if she has been injected with chicken blood.

"The group is built every year, so that I now feel ptsd when I hear the words of the June [-]st event. The masquerade party is so good. I am willing to participate in the masquerade party every day!"

Several people laughed together. "Then let's have fun tomorrow! Xiao Li hasn't fallen in love yet, so he has to seize the opportunity tomorrow!" Secretary Zhang laughed.

Xiao Li is the girl from the design department, she finally felt a little shy, and bumped her head on Secretary Zhang's shoulder: "Hey, sister Zhang, what are you talking about..."

At this moment, Shen Qi's phone rang. "Sorry, I have a call."

"It's okay, brother Shen, you go first."

The call was from Tang Yan, Shen Qi pressed the answer button, and went to the stairwell to make a call.

After so many years of friendship between the two, he was not polite to others, and asked straight to the point: "What's the matter, call me now."

He didn't think the other party could have any serious business. In fact, Tang Yan really had nothing serious to talk about. He was here to gossip.

"Hey hey, well, I'm just here to ask, have you two made any real progress this week?"

Shen Qi was busy this week, and the two of them didn't have much contact. Sometimes Tang Yan couldn't help but send a message to inquire about the situation. Shen Qi also read it and put it aside, and didn't reply to him. ——Go back to the fart, just make a fuss.

"What progress can be made?" I didn't even see anyone.Shen Qi kicked the wall next to him, thinking.

How difficult life is, even the pig teammates come to stab the knife from time to time.

Tang Yan was anxious: "You can't do it. If I remember correctly, tomorrow will be your event, right? Are you willing to miss this opportunity for nothing?"

I can't know, but I can't help it.Shen Qi thought.He let out a deep "huh" and didn't answer the question directly.

"Ang." Tang Yan's avatar on the phone was choked by someone, and he probably finally heard that his friend didn't want to mention it. After a while, he changed the subject and asked, "Then uncle and aunt... Still no response?"

Shen Qi had already noticed that this guy was here to stab him in the heart today, he turned and leaned against the wall, and replied very lightly, "No."

After coming out of the closet that day, Shen Qi tried to call his parents, but the two had already blocked him. For a long time after that, until today, he still failed to get through that call.

The same goes for WeChat.No matter when he sent a message in the past, the reminder of being blocked was displayed.

Sometimes Shen Qi even wonders if he has done some heinous and heinous things, so that his parents would rather pretend that they never gave birth to and raised him as a son, rather than communicate with him and try to understand him .

But in fact, it was just because he fell in love with a man.

So how did Gu Yan get here?While feeling sad and sad because of the indifferent attitude of his parents, at the same time, he wanted to laugh and quarrel with him as if nothing happened.

Send him on the plane every New Year and holiday, then turn around and leave the airport, go back to the empty home, and lie to him on the phone about where he went to play with his family, what relatives and friends he met, what delicious food he ate... …Tian Yi seamlessly hid it from him for seven years.

Every time he thought of these, Shen Qi felt as if someone was holding a rusty knife and trying to gouge out his heart.

But the knife was too blunt, and it was not easy to gouge out. One cut, one cut, thousands of cuts in the same place, saw blood and tears, but there was no end, and he refused to give him a happy cut.

Later, the heart was finally gouged out, but a blood hole was left, which could not heal after years and months, and the pain would make him sweat coldly when he touched it.It hurts even if you don't touch it.Day and night remind him and torture him.

"Tang Yan." He called his friend's name in a hoarse voice, and Tang Yan said "Hey", "You are here, what's the matter?"

"Tell me, if Gu Yan met me, did he suffer the fate of eight lifetimes..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tang Yan retorted immediately, "Although it is true that you did something wrong to lie to Gu Yan and break up, I can't make excuses for you and defend you against my conscience, but you also There's no need to belittle yourself so much, really..."

Shen Qi didn't say anything more, after a long time he said goodbye to Tang Yan and hung up the phone.But he was not in a hurry to go back to the office, he took out a cigarette and lit it.

A person who used to hate the smell of cigarettes actually started smoking, and he smoked a lot. He smoked more than half a pack of cigarettes while sitting on the steps of the stairwell for more than ten minutes.The cigarette butt twisted all over the floor.

When he smoked for the first time, he didn't know how to measure it. He smoked in a hurry, and he coughed earth-shatteringly due to the smell of smoke. His face was covered with tears and snot, and he was really embarrassed.But now he is so familiar with lighting and smoking that anyone who sees him will think he is an "old smoker".

But he had only been smoking for a month, and when he smoked his first cigarette, he had just come down from the mountain and was driving home to come out.That pack of cigarettes was bought by him when he passed a certain highway rest stop, and it cost 30 yuan a pack of Yuxi.
