Fall in love with summer flamingos

When Gu Shiye drove to the amusement park today, less than ten minutes later at 10 o'clock, he got out of the car with a drink in his hand. When he walked to the security room, the security guard was in high spirits today and greeted him warmly when he saw him.

"Mr. Gu, you are here. I didn't doze off today." The security guard smiled.

He handed the green tea drink in his hand to the security guard and said, "Here, uncle, take it and drink it."

The old man took it with a happy face and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu. Just now, a young man said when he left that he would bring me some soju next time. You young people nowadays are really polite."

Gu Shiye asked curiously, "What kind of guy is this? He's so familiar with you."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Hey... We become familiar with each other after coming here so often. I come here every week for many years."

Gu Shiye was stunned for a moment, then asked solemnly, "How many years? What does it look like?"

The old man scratched his head and stammered, "Oh... He's about the same height as you, with the kind of hair a young man has. He's very good-looking, with eyes that seem to speak, and he doesn't look very happy unless he smiles."

Gu Shiye took out his phone from his pocket, quickly flipped through a photo, and pointed it at the security guard. "Uncle... can you see if it's him?"

"Oh...oh, it's him, it's him, it's him. Mr. Gu, do you know him?" The old man asked in surprise, pointing at the photo.

Gu Shiye's emotions were surging and he was a little excited. He asked the old man anxiously, "Did he say when he would come again? When does he usually come?"

The old man grabbed his ear and thought carefully for a moment, then said to him, "He's here every Saturday and Sunday. He comes in the morning and leaves when the shop is almost closed. He's here all day. Oh... There were a few weekends when he didn't come. Maybe he had something to do. He came rain or shine. You two are like working in shifts. You're here one day and one night on weekends." The old man smiled amusedly after he finished speaking.

Gu Shiye's brows were furrowed at this moment, his hands trembling slightly. He said goodbye to the old man stiffly and walked back to the car. He could hear the old man's questioning voice from behind, but he didn't hear it clearly. He just wanted to go home and get some sleep and come back tomorrow...

"Yang Xia, get up!" Lin Nan called out to Su Yang Xia loudly.

Su Yangxia sat up and looked at him. "Why do you want to sleep for a while?" Lin Nan glanced at him and continued driving. "You bastard, even if you regard me as your driver, you shouldn't sleep every time. Go back and sleep."

"I know. I told you not to come." Su Yangxia said unhappily.

Seeing his misunderstanding, Lin Nan explained, "I didn't let you sleep because I was worried you wouldn't be able to sleep tonight and get up tomorrow...what if you missed something?"

"Well, you're right. I have to sleep at night." Su Yangxia sat up and twisted his neck with sudden realization.

"Remember to reward me, your ox and horse, when you go back." Lin Nan looked at him with a bared teeth and an expression of greed for small gains.

Su Yangxia rolled her eyes at him and said, "Okay. I've always rewarded you."

Lin Nan raised his chin with satisfaction and smiled, then continued to concentrate on his work.

As soon as Su Yangxia and Lin Nan entered the room, Su Yangxia's phone rang. It was his assistant Li Na calling.

"Director Su, there's a problem with the design you're responsible for. We just posted the promotional image on Weibo, and someone posted on Weibo saying that one of your designs was plagiarized. It's you... Mr. Zhang asked me to call you and ask you to come to the company immediately tomorrow morning."

After Su Yangxia hung up the phone, he stood there for a long time without moving. Suddenly, he started to pack his things and put them into his bag.

Lin Nan was momentarily bewildered by this. He stood over Su Yangxia, who was bending over to clean up, and asked, "What's wrong, Yangxia? What happened?"

Su Yangxia said nervously without even looking up, "I have to go back tonight, and I think you'll have to work hard. There's a problem with the design, so I have to go to the company early tomorrow morning. I'll go to the front desk to check out, and you can pack first."

After he packed up his things, he hurriedly took the room card and went to check out, leaving the dark room to Lin Nan. Lin Nan ran to the bathroom, put her things into her schoolbag and followed him.

The two of them hurriedly checked out of the hotel and drove to the highway. It was not until they were on the highway that Lin Nan's nervous mood relaxed along with him.

"What's wrong with the design drawings? Are you so anxious?" Lin Nan asked.

Su Yangxia sighed and said, "They said one of them was plagiarized." Su Yangxia said.

Lin Nan breathed a sigh of relief. "That's no big deal. Don't you all have a draft? It'll be fine once the draft is out."

"I drew that picture, but I no longer have the draft. It's not with me," said Su Yangxia.

Lin Nan's face instantly turned pale as he asked, "What! Where's the first draft? Why isn't it with you?"

Su Yangxia shrugged heavily and sighed, "I drew this when I was a senior in high school. I gave him the first draft. It's a shirt I designed for him. I never thought about designing that shirt again before. Recently, the company just happened to release a series of pictures with a similar style, so I thought I might as well draw it. Anyway, everyone has to submit their works to decide whether to use it or not. I made a few minor changes based on the original draft."

But the person who accused me of plagiarism knew what I changed, and he also said he had the first draft..." Su Yangxia said the last sentence with a complicated expression.

Lin Nan's expression was even uglier than Su Yangxia's. Once a designer was accused of plagiarism, the entire industry would never be able to recover.

He has been working diligently day and night in this company for three years. He even gave several design drafts to his superiors for signature. It was not until his immediate superior was fired from the company for taking kickbacks that he was promoted to the position of design director last month. He saw how much effort he put in. He often worked overtime, staying up day and night to draw pictures and make clothes. If he was not satisfied, he would keep revising them. Once the work was done and he had new ideas, he would tear it down and start over.

"So this is the only way? What will happen if there is no first draft?" Lin Nan asked this question even though he knew the answer.

Su Yangxia tilted her head and looked at him with a wry smile, "I'll be unemployed, and then no one will hire me. I might end up going to Meng Zhao's shop to cook spicy hot pot."

Lin Nan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're still in the mood to joke around? Is it your turn to make spicy hot pot? You're trying to steal the job of the older sisters..."

Gu Shiye showed up at the entrance of the amusement park at nine o'clock the next morning, just as the security guard was getting off work.

"Mr. Gu, you're here? Why did you leave yesterday? Did you come to see your friend during the day? But he hasn't come today..."

Gu Shiye had a bad feeling, but he still smiled, nodded to the security guard, and walked straight in.

Premonitions are things that often don't come true if they're good, but they always come true if they're bad. Gu Shiye sat on the swing from morning to night, and from night to the next morning, but he never waited for the person who passed by him...

Gu Shiye walked out of the playground with heavy steps, exhausted body and red eyes. They had appeared in the same place and sat on the same bench for many years, so why hadn't they met?
