prudence

Chapter 68

The company's attendance system is very loose, there is no need to clock in and out, and no one will interfere if you are late or leave early occasionally.

Everyone's work efficiency has been pretty good all along, so Mr. Xia has no intention of changing it.

The calm brother left, Lou Guo no longer cared about him, and concentrated on his work.

Busy until the end of get off work time, Sister Xiaotang and Brother Fafu left one after another. Lou Guo wanted to work a little longer, but received a call from Jian Lingsa.

"You haven't left yet?" he asked.

"I'm busy," Lou Guo unceremoniously disliked his immediate boss, "Time is tight and tasks are heavy, so don't bother me."

"Go back first," Jian Lingsa advised him, "Eat home first."

"There's no one at home, so it's not a good place to eat takeaway." Lou Guo has a strong will to work overtime, "I'll finish this part first, and I'm in better shape at the company."

Jian Ling Sa didn't speak, and she didn't know if she was depressed.

Lou Guo joked with him: "Anyway, I use your electricity when I go back, and I also use your electricity when I'm in the company. There's no difference."

"You want to say that, the company's electricity is more expensive," Jian Ling Sa cleared his throat, "Have you used the bracket, is it good?"

"See you! I knew you wanted me to go back for another purpose!" Lou Guo scolded angrily, "Do you still want me to drive the poster out on time?"

"No..." Jian Lingsa was a little aggrieved, "You are busy with your work, and it won't affect our video."

Lou Guo frowned.

"...just want to see you." Jian Lingsa said.

Lou Guo sighed: "I really can't refuse."

It feels too weird to video call your boss at work.

Lou Guo packed up his things and drove home, and bought a box lunch at the convenience store at the entrance of the community.

When he got home, he took a shower first, and then tinkered with the mobile phone holder for a while.This thing is really easy to use, the angle can be adjusted freely, it is easy to fix, and it is convenient to charge.

After putting his mobile phone on the desk, he took the initiative to send a video invitation to Jian Lingsa, and he connected in a short while.

"Hi," Lou Guo greeted Jian Lingsa on the screen with a smile, "What are you up to?"

Jian Lingsa adjusted the angle of the screen and showed the laptop in front of him: "Same as you."

"It turns out that you have worked so hard on business trips, have you had dinner yet?" Lou Guo smiled and pointed to the boxed lunch in front of him, "I'll eat this."

Jian Lingsa was obviously not satisfied with his food, so he sighed lightly.

"I'll cook something delicious for you when you come back!" Lou Guo said.

Jian Lingsa nodded: "Yes."

"Shall I keep busy?" Lou Guo pointed to the computer.

"Concentrate on eating first," Jian Lingsa advised him, "do it after eating, it's not good for the stomach if it cools down."

"I don't think you're in a hurry at all." Lou Guo picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile.

"It's really too late, I'm still here," Jian Lingsa said, "The body is important."

Lou Guo quickly finished his meal and returned to work.

From time to time, he turned his head and glanced at the phone screen beside him.

Amazingly, this distraction didn't affect his productivity, but instead made him more engaged and motivated.

The two are thousands of miles apart, and each is busy with their own work, but because of the video link, they feel the happiness of being accompanied.

Going home was indeed the right choice.

Lou Guo finally finished another poster, and was about to pick up a glass of water to drink, when Jian Lingsa's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Jian Lingsa didn't speak, just stretched her waist, and made some faint, unintelligible sounds from her mouth.

Lou Guo peeked at it, and felt a sudden movement in his heart.

He hooked his finger at the phone: "Senior, senior, come here!"

Jian Lingsa didn't understand, so she approached the screen: "What's wrong?"

Lou Guo approached quickly, and kissed the camera resoundingly: "Successful sneak attack!"

Jian Lingsa immediately laughed.

Lou Guo also smiled complacently.The troubles and resentments during the day disappeared at this moment, and he said abruptly: "Senior, I really like this job."

Jian Lingsa looked at him quietly.

"It's what I like to do, and I feel very fulfilled," Lou Guo continued, "Now that I'm with you, I don't feel tired."

"Is there enough time?" Jian Lingsa asked.

"It should be," Lou Guo said, "It's already half done."

Jian Lingsa glanced at the time: "Then rest early?"

"Do a little more," Lou Guo said, "I found that the efficiency in the office is not so high, and it is easy to be disturbed by various things. Otherwise, you can also move to our office."

Jian Ling Sa hesitated to speak.

"I like having you by my side." Lou Guo blinked at the camera.

Jian Ling Sa looked away, but the smile became more obvious.

"I'll send you the finished part first to see if it's okay," Lou Guo said, "I don't have much judgment right now, so you can review it for me."

"Well, good." Jian Lingsa nodded.

While packing the files, Lou Guo emphasized: "...you should be mentally prepared, it's not as good-looking as Mr. Zhang's version."

"Forget it," Jian Lingsa's smile dissipated, "It doesn't have much to do with him being good-looking."

"Did you guys quarrel today?" Lou Guo was curious.

It is not difficult to see from Brother Calm's restless actions that the two of them must have had quite a dispute.

"Are you talking harshly?" Lou Guo asked.

"No," Jian Lingsha shook his head, "I just asked him to sort out all the reference parts of his previous work and send them to me. This way, if any disputes arise in the future, they can be dealt with in time."

"what do you mean……"

"People with this habit can't just learn from this one time," Jian Lingsa said, "He insisted that he didn't have it in the past. To be honest, I don't believe it."

"Then what if it happened before and someone else found out?" Lou Guo was uneasy.

"This is not my area of ​​expertise. I told Xia Yuchen, and he will handle it," Jian Lingsa said. "It's unfortunate that he copied it this time, so it's our luck."

"Don't tell me, he has a pretty good eye," Lou Guo sighed, "The poster he copied is so good, the more I look at it, the more I like it."

Jian Lingsa cleared his throat: "I did that."

Lou Guo's eyes widened instantly.

"I participated in a competition when I was in my junior year." Jian Lingsa was a little embarrassed. "Because it was an event for a foreign magazine and there was no signature, so he didn't recognize it. He thought it was an unknown foreign designer."

Lou Guo was still in shock.

"It's also fortunate that I did it. He only picks this kind of niche people who don't spread widely, and it's usually hard to find," Jian Lingsa said with emotion, "No wonder his style is so changeable."

Lou Guo looked at the phone screen and suddenly laughed: "Hey, no wonder!"

"What?" Jane made Sa puzzled.

"I'm so depressed today!" Lou Guo let out a long sigh of relief, and the volume became louder, "No matter what I do, I feel that I'm not as good as him, and I'm worried that I'm not good enough, so he copied you! I'm not as good as you, Isn't it normal! Otherwise, I would be your boss!"

"..." Jane made Sa speechless.

"I've been worried all day, afraid that if I do too badly, I will disappoint you." Lou Guo said.

"How come, I have always been very optimistic about you," Jian Lingsa asked, "Why haven't you sent it to me?"

"Oh, here it is." Lou Guo nervously dragged the file into the window, "If you want to criticize, please try to be gentle."

Jian Lingsa didn't reply.

Lou Guo saw that the transmission bar on the screen was full, and then went to observe Jian Lingsa's expression on the phone screen, feeling very disturbed.

"... how?" he asked.

Jian Lingsa calmly clicked the mouse a few times, and replied after a while: "Very good."

"That's it, gone?" Lou Guo was unwilling.

"There's a small problem, let me fix it for you." Jian Lingsa said.

Lou Guo swallowed anxiously: "What's the problem?"

"Typos, more than one place." Jian Lingsa glanced at the phone, "It's too late."

Lou Guo was extremely embarrassed: "Ah...uh..."

"It's all good," Jian Lingsa comforted him, "It fits the theme better than the version copied by Lao Zhang, and it's also very comfortable to watch. I always think you have aura, which is difficult to make up for through experience."

"Does that mean I'm very talented?" Lou Guo asked.

Jian Lingsa nodded: "Yes."

"Then..." Lou Guo licked his lips and approached the phone, "Do you like me because of my outstanding talent?"

Jian Lingsa fell silent.

"Every time you talk about these things, you pretend to be dead. Let me tell you, I will really be upset," Lou Guo declared solemnly, "When I get upset, I will...will...not even kiss the camera!"

After finishing speaking, he himself felt that there was a lack of deterrence, and was about to add something, but unexpectedly, Jian Lingsa seemed to be really threatened, and he hesitated and opened his mouth.

"Maybe," he said while looking at the computer while facing the phone sideways, "You are excellent."

This answer made Lou Guo puzzled and uneasy.

Seeing that he was silent, Jian Lingsa asked, "What's wrong?"

"This is strange, you must have seen someone better than me," Lou Guo muttered, "Why me?"

"I can't say that... There is no specific standard for excellence," Jian Lingsa explained with difficulty, "Like someone is not an employee assessment, but a merit-based admission. It's like... You shouldn't be willing to be with me because you think I'm excellent ,Is it right?"

"Ah?" Lou Guo replied instantly, "I am."

The air fell into dead silence.

Jian Lingsa glanced at the phone blankly: "...Oh."

Even if the emoji on his head cannot be seen during the video call, Lou Guo can confirm that Jian Lingsa has suffered a serious blow.

He tried to make amends for his stupid statement: "You are not only good, you are also handsome!"

Jian Ling Sa remained silent.

Lou Guo had no choice but to continue to coax him: "Because... because you are excellent and handsome, you are perfect, and normal people would have a good impression of such a person. Especially, a perfect person like you actually showed a very It’s hard for me not to care about my appearance. If you care a lot, you’ll like it, and being with you makes me happy no matter what you do, and... and every time you kiss me, you kiss me so comfortably , it feels really good to go to bed with you, you are powerful and considerate and can take care of my feelings, so..."

"Didn't you say you want to do it for a while?" Jian Lingsa interrupted in time.

"What to do?" Lou Guo's thinking has completely gone astray, "Now? How to do it?"

"I mean, the poster." Jian Lingsa said.

Lou Guo blushed: "Did you say it completely..."

"Hurry up, go to bed early when you're done with work." Jian Lingsa urged in a calm voice with a slightly red face.

Lou Guo nodded, but couldn't take it back.He pressed his hand on the mouse and slid back and forth twice, and suddenly thought of something: "Has the mark on your neck disappeared?"

Jane makes Sa silent.

"Not so fast, have you been seen?" Lou Guo asked.

"No, no one noticed." Jian Lingsa said.

"Not necessarily, maybe people have seen it, but I'm sorry to remind you," Lou Guo pointed his finger at the phone, "Check it out for me."

Jian Lingsa hesitated for a few seconds, and approached the phone obediently.

Lou Guo quickly kissed the camera: "Successful attack!"

After devoting himself to work again, Lou Guo quickly lost those thoughts.

He was busy until after twelve o'clock, when Jian Lingsa said that he was going to sleep, and urged Lou Guo to take a rest too.

The two were reluctant to turn off the video, but they were too sleepy to do anything else. They put their mobile phones on the bedside and got under the covers.

Lou Guo was sleeping on Jian Lingsa's bed with his eyes closed, but he still couldn't help but want to talk to Jian Lingsa before going to sleep.

"Do you dream of me?" he asked.

Already prepared to wait for no response, Jian Lingsa said after the silence: "Maybe."

"Then have you ever dreamed of me before?" Lou Guo asked.

Jian Lingsa actually replied again: "Yes."

Is it because he couldn't see each other's expressions clearly because of the darkness, which made him more open than usual?

Lou Guo was thinking, Jian Ling Sa continued, "I have dreamed about it many times."

"Hey," Lou Guo whispered, "Have you had any such bad dreams?"

Jian Lingsa seemed to have turned over, and after a while, she slowly replied: "Not at first."

"At the beginning?" Lou Guo grasped the point, "What about later?"

It's a pity that Jian Lingsa completely ignored his words: "Before you joined the job, I would occasionally dream of you."

"Huh?" Lou Guo was stunned.

"I dreamed that you invited me to drink soda and went to the exhibition with me," Jian Lingsa said slowly, "The soda is called 'Colorful Fruits'. I did booth design for them when I just graduated. I dreamed of taking you to I visited, and you said it was very good, I am very happy."

"..."

"I also dreamed of eating and shopping with you, holding hands for a walk in school, and going to the amusement park to ride the Ferris wheel and roller coaster. I dreamed of giving you gifts, and also dreamed...you are with others and ignore me."

"No way," Lou Guo said, "All the previous ones can be true, but this one is false."

"Hmm. I don't know when it started, and why I care so much about you," Jian Lingsa seemed to be smiling, "After I came to my senses, I already liked you very much. Now that I think about it, maybe it was love at first sight?"

"..."

"I was too dull and confused at that time. I couldn't seize the opportunity and didn't know how to take the initiative to fight for it. Fortunately, you took the initiative to find it."

"..."

"Thank you for accepting my pursuit," Jian Lingsa said, "I am very grateful."
