What's wrong with spending your life
Chapter 4 is empty, this chapter continues
Ask Zhang Xin, he should know best.Today is Monday, and she will attend the company's regular meeting later. She has no time to think about it, so she puts the magazine in the drawer.
After the meeting, Lin Qi asked Secretary Xiao to call Cheng Feng, who was in charge of the company's advertising, and asked him about the progress of his contact with the radio station.Cheng Feng told her that everything was going well, and if they were quick, they would be able to hear their advertisement next week.
Lin Qi asked him to talk to the radio station that Qiming's advertisements should be launched in the morning and evening peak hours and at noon.The most people listen to the road conditions during these hours.Cheng Feng wrote down one by one.
During the lunch break, Lin Qi dug out the magazine again. "Clothes" is about the season's clothing collocation, "food" is about food recommendations and recipes in S City, "living" is about introducing more distinctive hotels, and "travel" is mainly about traveling. Lin Qi paid attention, and the editor was really An Ran. This issue is about Colorful Yunnan, and it has several pages. It introduces the customs and customs of various places in detail, and it is accompanied by photos taken from a unique perspective. It is really good.
She felt that without asking Zhang Xin, she could already be sure that An Ran was Man Qing, a barista, a magazine editor, and a radio host. She wondered if she had other identities.Lin Qi felt that she became more and more curious about this person.
Lin Qi thought the magazine was good after reading it, so she approached Secretary Xiao and asked her what she thought of the magazine. Secretary Xiao said that many of her friends had read it, and many young colleagues in the company paid attention to every issue of the magazine.Lin Qi thought about letting Cheng Feng find them after the radio advertisements were released.Hotels under Qiming can approach them for advertising.
On January 1th, the editor-in-chief of the magazine called Manqing to go to the office, and told Manqing very excitedly that many people came to the magazine in the past few days to place advertisements in their magazine, and the number of reservations for the next issue also increased sharply .Many of the travel agencies and hotels in Yunnan who came to them to advertise, wanted to send them a promotion when Manqing's next banner manuscript was published.
In fact, people like them will know that it comes from the last radio program, the introduction of Yunnan travel in that period, after it was broadcast, the response was good, and many people listened to it on the Internet radio station. It also surged, and in previous years it was the off-season before the winter vacation.Recently, some tourists went to Yunnan directly with their magazines, wanting to visit the places that Manqing had introduced.
This is a great publicity opportunity for them.Seeing Editor-in-Chief Zhou's rosy face, Man Qing didn't have any idea. She felt very happy that someone liked what she wrote.For editor-in-chief Zhou and the magazine, this is a business opportunity. With their sponsorship, there is no need to worry about advertising.
Editor-in-Chief Zhou asked Manqing to give a long introduction with photos in the next issue.The cover advertisement of the magazine belongs to the official of the tourism bureau, it's free, it's a win-win thing.
Man Qing feels that these have no effect on her, and she can write whatever she wants.Other magazines have their own people to handle it.
After leaving the magazine office, Man Qing went directly to Walking in the Clouds. In the evening, she had a program on the radio station, and there were quite a lot of people in the store on Friday afternoon.
"Dangdangdang. Big star, you are here." Man Qing was warmly welcomed by Zhang Gorilla as soon as he entered the door.How cheap and what a cheap expression.
Every month in their store, magazines are ordered for customers to read, and "Fashion Frontier" is never released. In fact, Manqing's entry into "Fashion Frontier" is still led by Zhang Xin. The editor-in-chief of the magazine is Zhang Xin's uncle. .
In the past, the frontier of fashion used to write a lot of information about transportation. After Manqing joined, she almost ran around the world. Manqing has been to many places, and writing travel notes is easy.
In the past, Zhang Xin showed some articles written by Manqing to his uncle. The old man thought he could try it, so he asked Manqing to write a few issues, and everyone thought it was good.The leaders of the club agreed to sign a contract with Manqing, and they didn't have to sit in the office, which made Manqing very satisfied.
Xiaojie told Manqing that Zhang Xin had bought [-] magazines in the past few days and would give them away for free as long as there are regular customers in the store.Man Qing felt that he was out of his mind, was he trying to help his uncle sell magazines?
Man Qing felt that the photo of her used on the cover of this magazine was a bit ostentatious. She originally added it to her travel notes and thought that this photo, which she had asked others to take for her, was quite good and could be used as a background.I didn't expect the editor-in-chief to use it as the cover.Although I was only in the corner, people I knew could recognize her at a glance.Fortunately, few people in S City know him.
In the live broadcast in the early hours of the 12th, Man Qing continued the last travel note, interspersed with a few songs, and the one-hour live broadcast ended soon.The topic about Yunnan □□ is over. In the next program, she plans to increase the interaction with the audience. In the program, she announced the email address and □□ of the new application.
☆, Man Qing who loves coffee
Lin Qi didn't go home this weekend. She wanted to go to Walk in the Cloud to find Zhang Xin. She had a strong curiosity about Manqing, so she made an appointment with Zhang Xin. At 10:30, Lin Qi walked into Walk in the Cloud.
Zhang Xin was still arguing with Lin Qi in a foolish manner.Growing up together, Zhang Xin knew that although Lin Qi gave people a cold look, she was still easy to get along with.
There are quite a lot of customers on weekends, and each location is designed ingeniously, which makes people feel comfortable and has a sense of privacy. Everyone has an independent small world, sitting in twos and threes by the window to bask in the sun and chat.
Lin Qi has long heard that many people in the company like to come here during their lunch break, and it is true that people feel very relaxed when they come in.
Zhang Xin led her up to the second floor and opened a room around the balcony.The entrance is facing a large floor-to-ceiling window, with lavender curtains and beige carpet.On the left hand side of the door is a three-seater sofa.There is a rattan hanging chair in the corner by the window, and there are many books, paper and pens on the long table in front.Behind the hanging chair is a shelf that almost occupies one wall. Zhang Xin pulled her over.
The shelves are full of various glass bottles, which contain coffee beans, and some are marked with the name of the place of origin.On the top floor are hand-operated bean grinders and coffee machines of various shapes, and the row next to the window is filled with books from top to bottom.
The wall opposite the hanging chair is made into a flower stand, with various flowers and green plants hanging on it, and the noon sun shines on it, as if suddenly crossing into spring.
"How about it, do you like it?" Zhang Xin put one arm around his waist and propped his chin on the other, winking at Lin Qi playfully.
"Isn't this your work?" Lin Qi raised her eyebrows at him, a small lounge with a very special layout.
"Well, it's Manqing. These are her private collections. Every time she comes here, it becomes her exclusive lounge. Occasionally, when she meets a customer who likes her the same, she pulls them over to show off." Zhang Xin said When I arrived in Manqing, I couldn't help feeling tender.Lin Qi could tell that Zhang Xin liked Manqing.
Zhang Xin asked Lin Qi to sit on the sofa, and went downstairs to get her coffee.Lin Qi went to the cabinet again and looked at the coffee beans. She loves coffee so much. She can collect so many kinds of coffee beans. Even the books are mostly about coffee.
Lin Qi thought that Zhang Xin was able to open a cafe here probably because Man Qing liked it.
"Many employees of your company are our regular customers." Zhang Xin put the plate on the long table.Bring coffee and cake to Lin Qi.
"Come, taste the coffee I made myself." Zhang Xin put the cup into Lin Qi's hand.
☆, Manqing who used to love to cry
"Where is Manqing, didn't you come today?" After taking a sip of coffee, Lin Qi remembered the purpose of coming today.
"Oh, tell me about her. She is on the radio live broadcast in the early morning. She will definitely sleep at home. Usually she doesn't come when there are programs on the radio station. She comes here to grab coffee and ask me to order takeaway for her." Zhang Xin talked about these things again. Angry and funny.
"She is a radio host, is she called "An Ran" on the radio?" Lin Qi asked Zhang Xin for confirmation.
"Have you ever heard of her show? She is acting as a substitute host now, and I occasionally download and listen to it from the Internet radio station. Her hosting style is quite unrestrained." Zhang Xin always talked casually when talking about Manqing.
"I met her when we were traveling in Xi'an two years ago. We were both at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda that day. When it was getting dark, the staff of an adventure house nearby wore official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty and came out to promote it. I came from there After passing by, I suddenly heard a scream, and saw a girl with a bag running and screaming. Everyone looked at the staff calmly, but now some people were afraid, and several ghosts chased the girl at the same time. A circle of people watching.
After running a few laps, everyone thought that this girl was also an arranged staff member.As a result, she stopped and beat the group of ghosts away with one against four.
When I reflected, the crowd dispersed, and I found the girl sitting alone under the steps, crying on her backpack, her shoulders shaking.At that time, I thought she must be a very timid girl. The children in the square were very calm, and she was the only one who was scared and ran away.
I bought two cups of coffee and sat there with her until she stopped crying and I chatted with her.She said that she was not afraid of ghosts, but was just thinking about things. When she suddenly saw such a disgusting costume around her, she cried because she felt wronged. We traveled together in Shaanxi for more than ten days.She told me that she chatted with me because she saw coffee.
Talking about that acquaintance, Zhang Xin felt that Manqing, who was sad and helpless in a foreign land, made him feel distressed.
Lin Qi thought of the girl at the Vancouver airport a few years ago. Did she often cry in a foreign land?
"She is an open-minded person who really doesn't care about anything. She has worked in her brother-in-law's company for three years and didn't pay her a penny. I became stingy, and I stole a cup of coffee from her and ignored me for a week. Ignore..." Zhang Xin couldn't stop talking about Manqing.
Lin Qi was very interested in Manqing, and sat on the hanging chair with a cup of coffee, listening to Zhang Xin's incessant talk about Manqing.Zhang Xin said that she exudes a literary atmosphere all over her body. Although she is indifferent to everyone, she can't help but want to get close.Zhang Xin said that the words she wrote are free and easy, just like her character.
☆、When love is approaching
"Zhang gorilla, get me something to eat, my stomach hurts to death." Manqing clutched her stomach and went straight to the lounge on the second floor. It was rare for her to wake up so early. Her stomach hurt so bad that she didn't even send a text message, and she just rode over here. .When she first entered the lounge, she didn't see Lin Qi sitting on the inside.
This will find that Zhang Xin's childhood sweetheart is also there, and he is a little stunned.
Zhang Xin stood up first, "Why does my stomach hurt again, have you taken any medicine?"
Lin Qi also put down the cup in her hand and stood up.
Seeing the pale Man Qing, she was as nervous as Zhang Xin.
"Let her drink some warm water first," Lin Qi said to Zhang Xin
"Oh, okay, you guys sit down first, I'll get a water glass" Zhang Xin turned and ran downstairs.
Lin Qi walked over and took her hand, letting her sit on the sofa.Man Qing smiled slightly at her and leaned on the sofa.
"Come on, drink some water first." Zhang Xin put the water glass into her hand.
"En." Manqing sat up and took a sip of water. "It's okay, don't be nervous, maybe the meals are not regular these days, you talk about yours"
"What do you want to eat, I'll order you takeaway." Zhang Xin took her cup.
"Whatever, I don't really want to eat anymore"
"Go to my house, I have stomach medicine at home, and have some porridge by the way, it's better to eat something light for stomach pain," Lin Qi said softly to her.
"No, you don't need to take medicine. I often feel like this, and the pain will disappear after a while." Hearing her say this, Man Qing was very surprised.
"My house is close to yours. After dinner, I'll take you home to rest." Lin Qi said unquestionably.
"That's fine, Lin Qi, I'll leave Manqing to you, I've made an appointment with my brother to have a performance later"
Man Qing looked at the two of them, not knowing how to refuse.
"Let's go." Lin Qi had already walked to her side and pulled her up.
Zhang Xin accompanied them downstairs. Lin Qi first drove the car over and parked it at the door. It was a white BMW SUV. Zhang Xin put Manqing's bicycle in the trunk.Man Qing got into the co-pilot by herself.
Lin Qi skillfully drove the car onto the road. The road condition was good, and the car stopped downstairs in less than 10 minutes.
Man Qing followed her into the small three-story mansion. Man Qing was the first guest at her house, and Lin Qi found her a pair of home cotton shoes to wear.
The decoration style of her house is more European style, the overall is simple and grand, and the entrance is a large living room.The color matching is very good, and it does not appear empty.There is an open kitchen, with wooden spiral stairs going up, the study and gym on the second floor, and her bedroom should be on the third floor.
Lin Qi turned on the air conditioner and asked Manqing to sit freely.She went upstairs and took a box of medicine and came down, brought a glass of water to Man Qing, and asked her to take the medicine.
"This is a relatively common stomach medicine. If it is not serious, it can relieve symptoms"
"Okay, thank you" Manqing said to her politely.
Lin Qi took off her coat, changed clothes and went to the kitchen. She often cooks and has all the materials at home.I washed some millet and put it in a casserole to cook porridge, and took out several kinds of vegetables to wash and cut.
Looking at the busy figure in the kitchen, Man Qing felt very warm.Mingming looks like a goddess who does not eat fireworks in the world, and she is so skillful in cooking.This picture made her feel that every cell was soaked in warm water, and her heart softened accordingly.Maybe it's because the medicine has taken effect, and she doesn't feel the pain in her stomach anymore.
"Do you need help?" She stood by the kitchen and looked at Lin Qi who was cooking.
"No, just watch TV, I'll be fine soon." Lin Qi turned her head and smiled gently at her
Man Qing has already smelled the aroma of porridge, and she is looking forward to it, as if she has never particularly wanted to eat a certain food in all these years.
She can also cook. She has been away from home for so long, and she would have starved to death if she didn't know how to cook. It's just that her life is irregular. Every time she is alone, she mainly deals with her stomach, as long as she is not hungry.Cook the noodles the most.She thinks cooking is too troublesome.
When Lin Qi brought the dishes to the table, Manqing took the initiative to help her carry the dishes, and the two cooperated very well.
Lin Qi's stir-fried dishes are very light, which suits Manqing's taste very well. The two have similar eating habits, neither likes to eat or talk, and hardly makes any noise.Man Qing looked at the girl with delicate eyes, and for the first time seriously thought of her name, she was no longer just Zhang Xin's childhood sweetheart.
In the afternoon, Lin Qi took her to the balcony on the second floor. It was a tatami mat covered with gray cushions.The two lay casually on it basking in the sun.
"Manqing, here's your milk." Lin Qi took a glass of milk and put it by Manqing's hand
"Oh, thank you." Man Qing was lying down and almost fell asleep just now, but she didn't hear when Lin Qi left.Sitting up a little confused.
"Manqing, do you consider me a friend?" Lin Qi took a sip of black tea and turned slightly to look at Manqing.
"Of course, you are my second friend in S City." Man Qing said seriously
"Then why don't you call me by my name, you're very polite to me"
"Ah, this, maybe it's because I'm slower to catch up." Man Qing looked at Lin Qi embarrassedly.
"Ah, Aqi, can I call you that?" Man Qing didn't know why she wanted to call her Aqi so much, she seemed to blurt out.
"Yeah." Lin Qi nodded slightly.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and lay down side by side.
"Aqi, you are so kind. Besides Zhang Xin, you are the first person who treats me so well in S City. Last time Zhang Xin brought you here, I think I have seen you before, but I am afraid that you will make fun of me. Didn't say anything." Manqing looked sideways at Lin Qi.
"Then do you like me?" Lin Qi also looked sideways at her
"I like it, I like it very much." After Manqing finished speaking, she blushed a little. This was the first time she said that she liked someone. Although she didn't mean it that way, she was still a little shy to say it directly.
"Then next time, you can treat me like Zhang Xin. I just returned to S city, and I don't have any other friends besides Zhang Xin. Watching you chatting, I am very eager to participate, and it seems that I can't get in." Lin Qi Said a little annoyed.
"Pfft..." Man Qing couldn't help laughing when she saw her tone like a child who couldn't grab a toy.
"Haha, then I will teach you how to bully Zhang Xin next time."
The invisible distance between the two people seems to suddenly disappear.
Two people who don't talk much on weekdays sat on the balcony one afternoon, chatting about music, travel, and coffee.It seems that I want to listen to all the life experiences of the other party.Mostly Man Qing talked a lot, Lin Qi listened very seriously, Man Qing said she looked serious like she was in a meeting.
When it was getting dark, Man Qing realized that it was time to go home. She wanted to go back by bicycle, but Lin Qi insisted on seeing her off.The two of them pushed the cart and walked slowly on the road without speaking, and occasionally looked at each other and smiled.
Manqing invited Lin Qi into her home, and this was her first guest in City S. A one-bedroom apartment of only about 50 square meters, Manqing really couldn't afford it when she grew up in City S.The decoration is very simple, and the home is full of artistic atmosphere.There is a small fabric sofa in the living room, and a bar counter is made by the kitchen door, with various coffee beans and beautiful coffee cups.The bedroom is painted in sky blue, with a solid dark blue quilt cover. There is a single sofa and a small workbench beside the bed. The whole is simple and clean.
Lin Qi visited Manqing's nest with great interest, she liked it better than her home, it was small and not crowded.There was warmth everywhere, and she seemed to see Man Qing wearing home clothes, nestling on the workbench with instant noodles, immersing himself in creation.
Manqing wanted to make coffee, but was stopped by Lin Qi. She said that she should drink less coffee if she has a bad stomach, because it is too stimulating and bad for the stomach.After hearing this, Manqing was not at all unhappy.It turns out that being restrained can also be very sweet.
There are not many ingredients in Manqing's house, and there are more instant foods, including instant noodles, noodles, and bread.She was embarrassed to invite Lin Qi to dinner at home.
Lin Qi suggested to go to the supermarket, and the two of them pushed the cart to buy a lot of food. When they got home, Lin Qi cooked porridge, and told Manqing to do this so that she would drink more porridge in the future.
They simply fried two more dishes. There was no table prepared at Manqing's house, so the two of them sat on the sofa and settled the dinner.For the first time in the past two years, Manqing felt that this place was her own home, with an atmosphere of home.
She asked about Lin Qi's life abroad, and felt sorry for this woman. She had almost no childhood, and she had no friends except for studying.Unexpectedly, the daughter of the rich family has always lived like this, working part-time and cooking by herself.No wonder she doesn't have the slightest squeamishness of a young lady.
After dinner, Man Qing pushed Lin Qi Jinhao for a walk and sent her downstairs to go home. Lin Qi told her to wait, ran into the house, and gave her a box of medicine.Lin Qi has the habit of preparing medicines, and she has some standing medicines at home.
"Aqi, can you tell me your phone number? Don't worry, I won't disturb your work. I just think that I'm close. If you need to be busy, you can call me anytime."Before leaving, Man Qing thought of asking for a phone call.
"Well, give me the phone." Lin Qi held out her hand to her
"Oh, here" Manqing took out her phone
Lin Qi quickly entered the number on Manqing's cell phone, pressed the dial button and hung up again.
"Well, remember to call me when you are free." Lin Qi saved the pinyin "qi" in her phone book and returned the phone to Manqing.
Man Qing packed the phone and pushed the car out of Jinhao. Lin Qi stood on the balcony and watched the figure walking away slowly.I quietly saved "qing" on my mobile phone.
For the first time, she felt that her home was so empty. Sitting on the sofa, she thought about her mental activities during this time.will this be love
Although Lin Qi is very traditional, she has seen a lot of same-sex love. In the past ten years abroad, she has many such classmates and colleagues around her, so she doesn't find it strange.Of course, she never thought that she would fall in love with the same sex.
She feels that the acceptance of same-sex has nothing to do with culture, and has nothing to do with openness or not. Not everyone in foreign countries is like Chinese people think, but some aspects are more open.
Lin Qi had never been in love before, she didn't know whether she was in love with that person, she was very happy in her heart, but she was calm on the surface.Just after we separated, I wanted to see that person again, even for a few words, but I was afraid of being too abrupt.I spent the night worrying about gains and losses.
Manqing thought a lot along the way. Compared to Lin Fan, she was not sure if she fell in love with Lin Qi. Lin Fan was the only girl she had ever liked before. She never thought that she was gay. It happened that the other party was a woman.
She has never liked other women, she has no comparison, she just likes to be with Lin Fan, subconsciously satisfying all her needs, no matter where Lin Fan goes, she can change her itinerary to follow her.The next few years seem to be habit.Every time Lin Fan quarreled with his boyfriend, he would go to her house to find her, stay for a few days and then go back to reconcile with him, and he would not feel unhappy or sad.
Man Qing had thought that if it wasn't for him, Lin Fan might have broken up with Wu Jia long ago and had another boyfriend. It was precisely because he had provided Lin Fan with a shelter, and every time he quarreled with her, he would find relief and go back to her. Followed by Wu Jia.On-off and on-again, it's all right.
If they had separated earlier, wouldn't there be no such things behind, and Lin Fan would not be subjected to domestic violence again and again, swallowing his anger and maintaining the marriage.
Manqing felt that Lin Qi gave her a different feeling, and she couldn't tell the difference. "Oh..." Maybe she was thinking too much, maybe she just had no friends in S City, so she regarded herself as an ordinary friend.Man Qing sighed and went home, deciding to see each other less in the future, she didn't want to go back to those years.
☆, once loved
"Who can tell me, are you my final destination?" Why do I feel that my heart has found a place to rest, and I have the illusion of standing on the edge of a cliff...
Man Qing couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so he took two stomach medicines to update his sex status.
As soon as I sent it, someone replied.
"Ah, Xiao Mian, this is falling in love" - A Xia
"Where are you, come on, my sister will go over and give you a hand, don't fall on our house" - Cheng Jing
"Come to my brother's arms, put your heart here, my brother is your only destination in this life" - Zhang Xin
A bunch of people are still up so late, Man Qing finds it funny to read their replies.
□□Going to Lin Fan's online, they haven't spoken a single word in the past two years. Man Qing found that she was watching his own news, but there was no reply every time.
After attending Lin Fan's wedding, Man Qing returned to City X for the first week. That day was the weekend. When Man Qing picked up the phone in the middle of the night, she heard Lin Fan crying, because the man hit her again because of some serious matter.
"He hit you, don't cry, I'll drive there right away, you send me the address." Man Qing sat up from the bed, wishing to fly to S City right away.
"I'm pregnant." Lin Fan said weakly on the other end of the phone
"Then what do you think?" Man Qing tried hard to calm herself down, stopped her hands to put on her clothes, and sat on the bed.She vaguely knew that Lin Fan still wouldn't break up.
"I don't know. The wedding is being prepared. My parents are also planning to come to S City. My relatives and friends have notified me. I don't want to get married, but I don't want my child to have a father." Lin Fan sat on the ground and held his head. Calling her parents, she was at a loss by herself, she wanted this child.
"Well, the wedding is still a while away. I will pick you up in S City tomorrow. You can calm down before making a decision. No matter what you decide, I will support you. Okay, don't cry and take care of yourself." Man Qing spoke on the phone , kept turning in circles in the room.
She actually wanted to wake her up by scolding Lin Fan, why you can't do without that bastard, if a man touches you once, there will be another time, even if he is pregnant.Afraid of irritating her.
"Okay" Lin Fan choked up and said, after hearing what Man Qing said, she had to feel at ease.
At home, Man Qing planned this room for Lin Fan's bedroom, which furniture.
Lin Fan called early the next morning and asked Manqing not to go to City S. Her parents had already arrived in City S. Wu Jia assured her parents that they would take good care of their mother and child and would not do anything again.
"Actually, he still loves me. At the beginning, he..."
Man Qing could tell that Lin Fan's attitude was different from yesterday, she still couldn't let go of this feeling, maybe she really loved Wu Jia, she was explaining to herself, or comforting herself.
"Okay, as long as you live well." She didn't persuade Lin Fan any more, no matter whether Lin Fan got married or not, she knew that they would have nothing to do.
In fact, these years, Man Qing didn't want Lin Fan to break up, as long as she lived happily.She just wanted to be by her side, but she forgot what kind of identity she wanted.When she found out that she fell in love with Lin Fan, she struggled and hesitated.She knew she had a boyfriend and wasn't jealous.Looking back, I'm not even sure if I really loved her.
The day Lin Fan went to S City, she felt that her world had become blank, and that the city she had lived in for four years no longer had anyone she missed.Sometimes Man Qing would also examine herself, whether it was love for Lin Fan, or just greed for that company.
Man Qing couldn't figure it out, so she asked for leave and went to Vancouver. Lin Fan informed her of the wedding date. She didn't have any emotions. On the day she returned to China at the airport, she wanted to cry inexplicably, feeling that the only person she cared about was also leaving.Man Qing had very little relationship with her family since she was a child, and she seldom went home after graduation. Lin Fan was her first close friend.
She had no contact with Lin Fan at all, probably in the second month after their marriage, that time Wu Jia quarreled with her again and broke her arm, but the child was fine.
"How can you decide to leave him, you can forgive me for beating you again and again, have you ever thought about what to do when the child is born, and let him live in this environment since he was a child?" Man Qing was very angry. Getting angry at Lin Fan for the first time
"I want to give birth to a child, I can't live without a child," Lin Fan said
"My child, my child, you never thought about it. Anyway, he is the father of the child. After you were born, it is impossible for you to have nothing to do with him in this life."
"What do you mean, do you also want me to kill the child? I don't want my marriage to be a joke." Lin Fan hung up the phone.
Man Qing didn't call again, and after sitting at home for a whole day, she felt that she shouldn't be involved in any of Lin Fan's affairs anymore, she was too tired, too tired.
After a long period of time, they didn't contact each other. Man Qing didn't want to stay in this city, so she resigned and went to Xi'an.
Thinking of those pasts, Manqing now seems to be too far away. If she had feelings for Lin Fan, she would have let go of them long ago.She felt that she was an unfeeling person, and when she decided to let go, it was only a few months before she stopped thinking about her, and she no longer had any emotions when she heard others mention it.
Coming to S City was not considered to be for Lin Fan. After attending the wedding, she stayed in S City for a few days and felt that it was not bad, and it was also close to her home in X City.When I met Zhang Xin in Xi'an, I almost hit it off and came here.It is true that she doesn't want to stay in her hometown anymore and wants to change her environment.So far she has not told others that she is in S City.
Only her sister and brother-in-law came to her several times and wanted her to return to the company to help, but she refused.
☆、Manqing's life experience
Manqing was born in a small rural town in X City. Family planning was very strict in the 80s. Their family has been landlords for generations, and their father’s generation has been a single heir for three generations. Although the father’s family is considered poor, grandparents still want to Grandson, parents too, Manqing and sister are only one year apart. Compared with the joy of the first child, the second girl, the family members are very frustrated. When the mother is pregnant with her, she hides and goes home only when she is about to give birth. Manqing's existence is only known to his family and relatives.
Later, my aunt took Manqing, who was not yet full moon, home to raise her. Within a year, her mother was pregnant with her younger brother, and she returned to her home when Manqing was two years old.
Her grandparents didn't like her, her parents didn't love her, her sisters, younger brothers and peers bullied her, these almost occupied Manqing's childhood.She didn't understand why, but everyone said that she was brought in, not the biological child of her parents.
She often cries, and every time she cries, she walks in the direction of her aunt's house. She thinks that there is still hope. It doesn't matter if it's not her parents. At least she can imagine that she is just like other children, loved by her parents. Yes, it's just that they are not by her side.
Her parents thought she was not good-looking, not as smart as her elder sister and younger brother, and never took her to relatives' homes. Until Manqing grew up, many people still didn't know Manqing's existence.
In her childhood, when other people's children were playing, she carefully followed her grandmother and helped her with housework, hoping that she would scold her less.But no matter what she did, she still had to be teased every day, and every time she cried, those people would let her go.
Taking it as fun to make her cry, she has been insecure since she was a child and alienated from everyone.
She remembered that when she was in elementary school, she was playing by the river with her younger brother and a few other children in the village. Her father kicked her from behind when he saw her passing by, thinking that she would not take care of her younger brother, and took him to the river too. Danger.She has always been afraid of her father, and it is estimated that the total number of words she has spoken to her father in the past few decades will not exceed a hundred.
I don't know what fatherly love is.
Her parents only let her finish junior high school, and then arranged for her to work.In other people's blooming and rainy seasons, she only had to work hard every day, and she cried silently to the books pressed in the corner.But she does not resent her parents. She did not do well in the senior high school entrance examination, and her parents have no obligation to spend money to repeat her exams.Their hope will always be their sister and brother.
When she left home after work, her parents didn't buy her a single piece of clothing, and didn't give her a penny. The only three hundred yuan she had was given to her by her aunt.During that time, she was living in the company dormitory, and she really had no money to borrow from her colleagues. She would pay back the salary next month, and it took a long time to have any money left. Fortunately, her parents didn't ask her for money.
Later, she studied while working, and finally obtained a university diploma. No colleague ever believed that she only graduated from junior high school.Manqing is particularly bookish, and her colleagues joked about her early on, calling her Wenqing.
Looking back, she is grateful to her parents for letting her be completely independent and reborn through hardships.
She is not like her family at all. It is true that she is not as beautiful as her elder sister. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but no one has ever denied that she has a unique temperament.
Manqing is proud in her bones, and when she grows up, she no longer longs for the attention of her parents. She obtains everything that other parents can give her through her own efforts.She doesn't envy anyone and can find a balance.
When she encountered unhappy things when she was a child, she recorded them in her diary bit by bit.When she was very young, she was still very extreme. Looking back now, she feels relieved. If her parents had kept her by their side, they would probably have arranged for her to marry.But now she has her own thoughts and is an independent individual, and no one can control her.
Like the other children, she bought them things and gave them money during the Chinese New Year, but she didn't have family affection, and she couldn't pretend to be kind, so she seldom went home. When she came to S City, she never went back for the Chinese New Year.
After work, both parents strongly denied that they didn't like her when they were young, and they always claimed that they treated the three children equally, and did not admit what they had done to her before.Man Qing didn't want to say anything.
I don't have feelings for them, but I can't ignore them, and occasionally buy them something and give them some money.
Perhaps because of these shadows in her childhood, Manqing never thought of getting married.Many people chased her during work.
She can accept a slight distance, but she resists being touched by others.Every time the other party brought up the trend of discussing marriage, she would break up without hesitation.She never thought carefully about whether she liked men.
After meeting Lin Fan, she remembered that when she was watching TV dramas since she was a child, all she paid attention to and liked were the heroines.She just felt that there was a problem. After searching the Internet, she probably understood it and was afraid of it.Then accept the reality frankly.
It's the same whether you like men or women, the premise is that you have to like that person, and then the gender.
No one said that homosexuality is just seeing the same gender and falling in love, so there is no difference.Manqing thinks so
☆, a woman with a flashlight
Lin Qi took a few lunch breaks and went to walk in the clouds, but she never saw Manqing.She was not there on weekends, Zhang Xin said that she didn't come here recently, and when she came, she sat in the lounge in a daze, as if she had something on her mind.
Lin Qi is a very decisive person. When she finds her own person, she doesn't want to procrastinate. Maybe it's because she is abroad. She knows that Zhang Xin likes Manqing, but she doesn't want to give up. The relationship is between two people, and there is no other person. back down.
As long as Man Qing also likes her, she will not consider other factors.
February 2th is Qiming International's company annual meeting. This is Lin Qi's first annual meeting after returning to China. Lin Zhengliang attaches great importance to it. He has invited many friends and related customers. He wants everyone to know that Lin Qi belongs to Lin Zhengliang. Daughter, the last president of Qiming International.
Secretary Xiao asked Lin Qi if she wanted to invite
After the meeting, Lin Qi asked Secretary Xiao to call Cheng Feng, who was in charge of the company's advertising, and asked him about the progress of his contact with the radio station.Cheng Feng told her that everything was going well, and if they were quick, they would be able to hear their advertisement next week.
Lin Qi asked him to talk to the radio station that Qiming's advertisements should be launched in the morning and evening peak hours and at noon.The most people listen to the road conditions during these hours.Cheng Feng wrote down one by one.
During the lunch break, Lin Qi dug out the magazine again. "Clothes" is about the season's clothing collocation, "food" is about food recommendations and recipes in S City, "living" is about introducing more distinctive hotels, and "travel" is mainly about traveling. Lin Qi paid attention, and the editor was really An Ran. This issue is about Colorful Yunnan, and it has several pages. It introduces the customs and customs of various places in detail, and it is accompanied by photos taken from a unique perspective. It is really good.
She felt that without asking Zhang Xin, she could already be sure that An Ran was Man Qing, a barista, a magazine editor, and a radio host. She wondered if she had other identities.Lin Qi felt that she became more and more curious about this person.
Lin Qi thought the magazine was good after reading it, so she approached Secretary Xiao and asked her what she thought of the magazine. Secretary Xiao said that many of her friends had read it, and many young colleagues in the company paid attention to every issue of the magazine.Lin Qi thought about letting Cheng Feng find them after the radio advertisements were released.Hotels under Qiming can approach them for advertising.
On January 1th, the editor-in-chief of the magazine called Manqing to go to the office, and told Manqing very excitedly that many people came to the magazine in the past few days to place advertisements in their magazine, and the number of reservations for the next issue also increased sharply .Many of the travel agencies and hotels in Yunnan who came to them to advertise, wanted to send them a promotion when Manqing's next banner manuscript was published.
In fact, people like them will know that it comes from the last radio program, the introduction of Yunnan travel in that period, after it was broadcast, the response was good, and many people listened to it on the Internet radio station. It also surged, and in previous years it was the off-season before the winter vacation.Recently, some tourists went to Yunnan directly with their magazines, wanting to visit the places that Manqing had introduced.
This is a great publicity opportunity for them.Seeing Editor-in-Chief Zhou's rosy face, Man Qing didn't have any idea. She felt very happy that someone liked what she wrote.For editor-in-chief Zhou and the magazine, this is a business opportunity. With their sponsorship, there is no need to worry about advertising.
Editor-in-Chief Zhou asked Manqing to give a long introduction with photos in the next issue.The cover advertisement of the magazine belongs to the official of the tourism bureau, it's free, it's a win-win thing.
Man Qing feels that these have no effect on her, and she can write whatever she wants.Other magazines have their own people to handle it.
After leaving the magazine office, Man Qing went directly to Walking in the Clouds. In the evening, she had a program on the radio station, and there were quite a lot of people in the store on Friday afternoon.
"Dangdangdang. Big star, you are here." Man Qing was warmly welcomed by Zhang Gorilla as soon as he entered the door.How cheap and what a cheap expression.
Every month in their store, magazines are ordered for customers to read, and "Fashion Frontier" is never released. In fact, Manqing's entry into "Fashion Frontier" is still led by Zhang Xin. The editor-in-chief of the magazine is Zhang Xin's uncle. .
In the past, the frontier of fashion used to write a lot of information about transportation. After Manqing joined, she almost ran around the world. Manqing has been to many places, and writing travel notes is easy.
In the past, Zhang Xin showed some articles written by Manqing to his uncle. The old man thought he could try it, so he asked Manqing to write a few issues, and everyone thought it was good.The leaders of the club agreed to sign a contract with Manqing, and they didn't have to sit in the office, which made Manqing very satisfied.
Xiaojie told Manqing that Zhang Xin had bought [-] magazines in the past few days and would give them away for free as long as there are regular customers in the store.Man Qing felt that he was out of his mind, was he trying to help his uncle sell magazines?
Man Qing felt that the photo of her used on the cover of this magazine was a bit ostentatious. She originally added it to her travel notes and thought that this photo, which she had asked others to take for her, was quite good and could be used as a background.I didn't expect the editor-in-chief to use it as the cover.Although I was only in the corner, people I knew could recognize her at a glance.Fortunately, few people in S City know him.
In the live broadcast in the early hours of the 12th, Man Qing continued the last travel note, interspersed with a few songs, and the one-hour live broadcast ended soon.The topic about Yunnan □□ is over. In the next program, she plans to increase the interaction with the audience. In the program, she announced the email address and □□ of the new application.
☆, Man Qing who loves coffee
Lin Qi didn't go home this weekend. She wanted to go to Walk in the Cloud to find Zhang Xin. She had a strong curiosity about Manqing, so she made an appointment with Zhang Xin. At 10:30, Lin Qi walked into Walk in the Cloud.
Zhang Xin was still arguing with Lin Qi in a foolish manner.Growing up together, Zhang Xin knew that although Lin Qi gave people a cold look, she was still easy to get along with.
There are quite a lot of customers on weekends, and each location is designed ingeniously, which makes people feel comfortable and has a sense of privacy. Everyone has an independent small world, sitting in twos and threes by the window to bask in the sun and chat.
Lin Qi has long heard that many people in the company like to come here during their lunch break, and it is true that people feel very relaxed when they come in.
Zhang Xin led her up to the second floor and opened a room around the balcony.The entrance is facing a large floor-to-ceiling window, with lavender curtains and beige carpet.On the left hand side of the door is a three-seater sofa.There is a rattan hanging chair in the corner by the window, and there are many books, paper and pens on the long table in front.Behind the hanging chair is a shelf that almost occupies one wall. Zhang Xin pulled her over.
The shelves are full of various glass bottles, which contain coffee beans, and some are marked with the name of the place of origin.On the top floor are hand-operated bean grinders and coffee machines of various shapes, and the row next to the window is filled with books from top to bottom.
The wall opposite the hanging chair is made into a flower stand, with various flowers and green plants hanging on it, and the noon sun shines on it, as if suddenly crossing into spring.
"How about it, do you like it?" Zhang Xin put one arm around his waist and propped his chin on the other, winking at Lin Qi playfully.
"Isn't this your work?" Lin Qi raised her eyebrows at him, a small lounge with a very special layout.
"Well, it's Manqing. These are her private collections. Every time she comes here, it becomes her exclusive lounge. Occasionally, when she meets a customer who likes her the same, she pulls them over to show off." Zhang Xin said When I arrived in Manqing, I couldn't help feeling tender.Lin Qi could tell that Zhang Xin liked Manqing.
Zhang Xin asked Lin Qi to sit on the sofa, and went downstairs to get her coffee.Lin Qi went to the cabinet again and looked at the coffee beans. She loves coffee so much. She can collect so many kinds of coffee beans. Even the books are mostly about coffee.
Lin Qi thought that Zhang Xin was able to open a cafe here probably because Man Qing liked it.
"Many employees of your company are our regular customers." Zhang Xin put the plate on the long table.Bring coffee and cake to Lin Qi.
"Come, taste the coffee I made myself." Zhang Xin put the cup into Lin Qi's hand.
☆, Manqing who used to love to cry
"Where is Manqing, didn't you come today?" After taking a sip of coffee, Lin Qi remembered the purpose of coming today.
"Oh, tell me about her. She is on the radio live broadcast in the early morning. She will definitely sleep at home. Usually she doesn't come when there are programs on the radio station. She comes here to grab coffee and ask me to order takeaway for her." Zhang Xin talked about these things again. Angry and funny.
"She is a radio host, is she called "An Ran" on the radio?" Lin Qi asked Zhang Xin for confirmation.
"Have you ever heard of her show? She is acting as a substitute host now, and I occasionally download and listen to it from the Internet radio station. Her hosting style is quite unrestrained." Zhang Xin always talked casually when talking about Manqing.
"I met her when we were traveling in Xi'an two years ago. We were both at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda that day. When it was getting dark, the staff of an adventure house nearby wore official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty and came out to promote it. I came from there After passing by, I suddenly heard a scream, and saw a girl with a bag running and screaming. Everyone looked at the staff calmly, but now some people were afraid, and several ghosts chased the girl at the same time. A circle of people watching.
After running a few laps, everyone thought that this girl was also an arranged staff member.As a result, she stopped and beat the group of ghosts away with one against four.
When I reflected, the crowd dispersed, and I found the girl sitting alone under the steps, crying on her backpack, her shoulders shaking.At that time, I thought she must be a very timid girl. The children in the square were very calm, and she was the only one who was scared and ran away.
I bought two cups of coffee and sat there with her until she stopped crying and I chatted with her.She said that she was not afraid of ghosts, but was just thinking about things. When she suddenly saw such a disgusting costume around her, she cried because she felt wronged. We traveled together in Shaanxi for more than ten days.She told me that she chatted with me because she saw coffee.
Talking about that acquaintance, Zhang Xin felt that Manqing, who was sad and helpless in a foreign land, made him feel distressed.
Lin Qi thought of the girl at the Vancouver airport a few years ago. Did she often cry in a foreign land?
"She is an open-minded person who really doesn't care about anything. She has worked in her brother-in-law's company for three years and didn't pay her a penny. I became stingy, and I stole a cup of coffee from her and ignored me for a week. Ignore..." Zhang Xin couldn't stop talking about Manqing.
Lin Qi was very interested in Manqing, and sat on the hanging chair with a cup of coffee, listening to Zhang Xin's incessant talk about Manqing.Zhang Xin said that she exudes a literary atmosphere all over her body. Although she is indifferent to everyone, she can't help but want to get close.Zhang Xin said that the words she wrote are free and easy, just like her character.
☆、When love is approaching
"Zhang gorilla, get me something to eat, my stomach hurts to death." Manqing clutched her stomach and went straight to the lounge on the second floor. It was rare for her to wake up so early. Her stomach hurt so bad that she didn't even send a text message, and she just rode over here. .When she first entered the lounge, she didn't see Lin Qi sitting on the inside.
This will find that Zhang Xin's childhood sweetheart is also there, and he is a little stunned.
Zhang Xin stood up first, "Why does my stomach hurt again, have you taken any medicine?"
Lin Qi also put down the cup in her hand and stood up.
Seeing the pale Man Qing, she was as nervous as Zhang Xin.
"Let her drink some warm water first," Lin Qi said to Zhang Xin
"Oh, okay, you guys sit down first, I'll get a water glass" Zhang Xin turned and ran downstairs.
Lin Qi walked over and took her hand, letting her sit on the sofa.Man Qing smiled slightly at her and leaned on the sofa.
"Come on, drink some water first." Zhang Xin put the water glass into her hand.
"En." Manqing sat up and took a sip of water. "It's okay, don't be nervous, maybe the meals are not regular these days, you talk about yours"
"What do you want to eat, I'll order you takeaway." Zhang Xin took her cup.
"Whatever, I don't really want to eat anymore"
"Go to my house, I have stomach medicine at home, and have some porridge by the way, it's better to eat something light for stomach pain," Lin Qi said softly to her.
"No, you don't need to take medicine. I often feel like this, and the pain will disappear after a while." Hearing her say this, Man Qing was very surprised.
"My house is close to yours. After dinner, I'll take you home to rest." Lin Qi said unquestionably.
"That's fine, Lin Qi, I'll leave Manqing to you, I've made an appointment with my brother to have a performance later"
Man Qing looked at the two of them, not knowing how to refuse.
"Let's go." Lin Qi had already walked to her side and pulled her up.
Zhang Xin accompanied them downstairs. Lin Qi first drove the car over and parked it at the door. It was a white BMW SUV. Zhang Xin put Manqing's bicycle in the trunk.Man Qing got into the co-pilot by herself.
Lin Qi skillfully drove the car onto the road. The road condition was good, and the car stopped downstairs in less than 10 minutes.
Man Qing followed her into the small three-story mansion. Man Qing was the first guest at her house, and Lin Qi found her a pair of home cotton shoes to wear.
The decoration style of her house is more European style, the overall is simple and grand, and the entrance is a large living room.The color matching is very good, and it does not appear empty.There is an open kitchen, with wooden spiral stairs going up, the study and gym on the second floor, and her bedroom should be on the third floor.
Lin Qi turned on the air conditioner and asked Manqing to sit freely.She went upstairs and took a box of medicine and came down, brought a glass of water to Man Qing, and asked her to take the medicine.
"This is a relatively common stomach medicine. If it is not serious, it can relieve symptoms"
"Okay, thank you" Manqing said to her politely.
Lin Qi took off her coat, changed clothes and went to the kitchen. She often cooks and has all the materials at home.I washed some millet and put it in a casserole to cook porridge, and took out several kinds of vegetables to wash and cut.
Looking at the busy figure in the kitchen, Man Qing felt very warm.Mingming looks like a goddess who does not eat fireworks in the world, and she is so skillful in cooking.This picture made her feel that every cell was soaked in warm water, and her heart softened accordingly.Maybe it's because the medicine has taken effect, and she doesn't feel the pain in her stomach anymore.
"Do you need help?" She stood by the kitchen and looked at Lin Qi who was cooking.
"No, just watch TV, I'll be fine soon." Lin Qi turned her head and smiled gently at her
Man Qing has already smelled the aroma of porridge, and she is looking forward to it, as if she has never particularly wanted to eat a certain food in all these years.
She can also cook. She has been away from home for so long, and she would have starved to death if she didn't know how to cook. It's just that her life is irregular. Every time she is alone, she mainly deals with her stomach, as long as she is not hungry.Cook the noodles the most.She thinks cooking is too troublesome.
When Lin Qi brought the dishes to the table, Manqing took the initiative to help her carry the dishes, and the two cooperated very well.
Lin Qi's stir-fried dishes are very light, which suits Manqing's taste very well. The two have similar eating habits, neither likes to eat or talk, and hardly makes any noise.Man Qing looked at the girl with delicate eyes, and for the first time seriously thought of her name, she was no longer just Zhang Xin's childhood sweetheart.
In the afternoon, Lin Qi took her to the balcony on the second floor. It was a tatami mat covered with gray cushions.The two lay casually on it basking in the sun.
"Manqing, here's your milk." Lin Qi took a glass of milk and put it by Manqing's hand
"Oh, thank you." Man Qing was lying down and almost fell asleep just now, but she didn't hear when Lin Qi left.Sitting up a little confused.
"Manqing, do you consider me a friend?" Lin Qi took a sip of black tea and turned slightly to look at Manqing.
"Of course, you are my second friend in S City." Man Qing said seriously
"Then why don't you call me by my name, you're very polite to me"
"Ah, this, maybe it's because I'm slower to catch up." Man Qing looked at Lin Qi embarrassedly.
"Ah, Aqi, can I call you that?" Man Qing didn't know why she wanted to call her Aqi so much, she seemed to blurt out.
"Yeah." Lin Qi nodded slightly.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and lay down side by side.
"Aqi, you are so kind. Besides Zhang Xin, you are the first person who treats me so well in S City. Last time Zhang Xin brought you here, I think I have seen you before, but I am afraid that you will make fun of me. Didn't say anything." Manqing looked sideways at Lin Qi.
"Then do you like me?" Lin Qi also looked sideways at her
"I like it, I like it very much." After Manqing finished speaking, she blushed a little. This was the first time she said that she liked someone. Although she didn't mean it that way, she was still a little shy to say it directly.
"Then next time, you can treat me like Zhang Xin. I just returned to S city, and I don't have any other friends besides Zhang Xin. Watching you chatting, I am very eager to participate, and it seems that I can't get in." Lin Qi Said a little annoyed.
"Pfft..." Man Qing couldn't help laughing when she saw her tone like a child who couldn't grab a toy.
"Haha, then I will teach you how to bully Zhang Xin next time."
The invisible distance between the two people seems to suddenly disappear.
Two people who don't talk much on weekdays sat on the balcony one afternoon, chatting about music, travel, and coffee.It seems that I want to listen to all the life experiences of the other party.Mostly Man Qing talked a lot, Lin Qi listened very seriously, Man Qing said she looked serious like she was in a meeting.
When it was getting dark, Man Qing realized that it was time to go home. She wanted to go back by bicycle, but Lin Qi insisted on seeing her off.The two of them pushed the cart and walked slowly on the road without speaking, and occasionally looked at each other and smiled.
Manqing invited Lin Qi into her home, and this was her first guest in City S. A one-bedroom apartment of only about 50 square meters, Manqing really couldn't afford it when she grew up in City S.The decoration is very simple, and the home is full of artistic atmosphere.There is a small fabric sofa in the living room, and a bar counter is made by the kitchen door, with various coffee beans and beautiful coffee cups.The bedroom is painted in sky blue, with a solid dark blue quilt cover. There is a single sofa and a small workbench beside the bed. The whole is simple and clean.
Lin Qi visited Manqing's nest with great interest, she liked it better than her home, it was small and not crowded.There was warmth everywhere, and she seemed to see Man Qing wearing home clothes, nestling on the workbench with instant noodles, immersing himself in creation.
Manqing wanted to make coffee, but was stopped by Lin Qi. She said that she should drink less coffee if she has a bad stomach, because it is too stimulating and bad for the stomach.After hearing this, Manqing was not at all unhappy.It turns out that being restrained can also be very sweet.
There are not many ingredients in Manqing's house, and there are more instant foods, including instant noodles, noodles, and bread.She was embarrassed to invite Lin Qi to dinner at home.
Lin Qi suggested to go to the supermarket, and the two of them pushed the cart to buy a lot of food. When they got home, Lin Qi cooked porridge, and told Manqing to do this so that she would drink more porridge in the future.
They simply fried two more dishes. There was no table prepared at Manqing's house, so the two of them sat on the sofa and settled the dinner.For the first time in the past two years, Manqing felt that this place was her own home, with an atmosphere of home.
She asked about Lin Qi's life abroad, and felt sorry for this woman. She had almost no childhood, and she had no friends except for studying.Unexpectedly, the daughter of the rich family has always lived like this, working part-time and cooking by herself.No wonder she doesn't have the slightest squeamishness of a young lady.
After dinner, Man Qing pushed Lin Qi Jinhao for a walk and sent her downstairs to go home. Lin Qi told her to wait, ran into the house, and gave her a box of medicine.Lin Qi has the habit of preparing medicines, and she has some standing medicines at home.
"Aqi, can you tell me your phone number? Don't worry, I won't disturb your work. I just think that I'm close. If you need to be busy, you can call me anytime."Before leaving, Man Qing thought of asking for a phone call.
"Well, give me the phone." Lin Qi held out her hand to her
"Oh, here" Manqing took out her phone
Lin Qi quickly entered the number on Manqing's cell phone, pressed the dial button and hung up again.
"Well, remember to call me when you are free." Lin Qi saved the pinyin "qi" in her phone book and returned the phone to Manqing.
Man Qing packed the phone and pushed the car out of Jinhao. Lin Qi stood on the balcony and watched the figure walking away slowly.I quietly saved "qing" on my mobile phone.
For the first time, she felt that her home was so empty. Sitting on the sofa, she thought about her mental activities during this time.will this be love
Although Lin Qi is very traditional, she has seen a lot of same-sex love. In the past ten years abroad, she has many such classmates and colleagues around her, so she doesn't find it strange.Of course, she never thought that she would fall in love with the same sex.
She feels that the acceptance of same-sex has nothing to do with culture, and has nothing to do with openness or not. Not everyone in foreign countries is like Chinese people think, but some aspects are more open.
Lin Qi had never been in love before, she didn't know whether she was in love with that person, she was very happy in her heart, but she was calm on the surface.Just after we separated, I wanted to see that person again, even for a few words, but I was afraid of being too abrupt.I spent the night worrying about gains and losses.
Manqing thought a lot along the way. Compared to Lin Fan, she was not sure if she fell in love with Lin Qi. Lin Fan was the only girl she had ever liked before. She never thought that she was gay. It happened that the other party was a woman.
She has never liked other women, she has no comparison, she just likes to be with Lin Fan, subconsciously satisfying all her needs, no matter where Lin Fan goes, she can change her itinerary to follow her.The next few years seem to be habit.Every time Lin Fan quarreled with his boyfriend, he would go to her house to find her, stay for a few days and then go back to reconcile with him, and he would not feel unhappy or sad.
Man Qing had thought that if it wasn't for him, Lin Fan might have broken up with Wu Jia long ago and had another boyfriend. It was precisely because he had provided Lin Fan with a shelter, and every time he quarreled with her, he would find relief and go back to her. Followed by Wu Jia.On-off and on-again, it's all right.
If they had separated earlier, wouldn't there be no such things behind, and Lin Fan would not be subjected to domestic violence again and again, swallowing his anger and maintaining the marriage.
Manqing felt that Lin Qi gave her a different feeling, and she couldn't tell the difference. "Oh..." Maybe she was thinking too much, maybe she just had no friends in S City, so she regarded herself as an ordinary friend.Man Qing sighed and went home, deciding to see each other less in the future, she didn't want to go back to those years.
☆, once loved
"Who can tell me, are you my final destination?" Why do I feel that my heart has found a place to rest, and I have the illusion of standing on the edge of a cliff...
Man Qing couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so he took two stomach medicines to update his sex status.
As soon as I sent it, someone replied.
"Ah, Xiao Mian, this is falling in love" - A Xia
"Where are you, come on, my sister will go over and give you a hand, don't fall on our house" - Cheng Jing
"Come to my brother's arms, put your heart here, my brother is your only destination in this life" - Zhang Xin
A bunch of people are still up so late, Man Qing finds it funny to read their replies.
□□Going to Lin Fan's online, they haven't spoken a single word in the past two years. Man Qing found that she was watching his own news, but there was no reply every time.
After attending Lin Fan's wedding, Man Qing returned to City X for the first week. That day was the weekend. When Man Qing picked up the phone in the middle of the night, she heard Lin Fan crying, because the man hit her again because of some serious matter.
"He hit you, don't cry, I'll drive there right away, you send me the address." Man Qing sat up from the bed, wishing to fly to S City right away.
"I'm pregnant." Lin Fan said weakly on the other end of the phone
"Then what do you think?" Man Qing tried hard to calm herself down, stopped her hands to put on her clothes, and sat on the bed.She vaguely knew that Lin Fan still wouldn't break up.
"I don't know. The wedding is being prepared. My parents are also planning to come to S City. My relatives and friends have notified me. I don't want to get married, but I don't want my child to have a father." Lin Fan sat on the ground and held his head. Calling her parents, she was at a loss by herself, she wanted this child.
"Well, the wedding is still a while away. I will pick you up in S City tomorrow. You can calm down before making a decision. No matter what you decide, I will support you. Okay, don't cry and take care of yourself." Man Qing spoke on the phone , kept turning in circles in the room.
She actually wanted to wake her up by scolding Lin Fan, why you can't do without that bastard, if a man touches you once, there will be another time, even if he is pregnant.Afraid of irritating her.
"Okay" Lin Fan choked up and said, after hearing what Man Qing said, she had to feel at ease.
At home, Man Qing planned this room for Lin Fan's bedroom, which furniture.
Lin Fan called early the next morning and asked Manqing not to go to City S. Her parents had already arrived in City S. Wu Jia assured her parents that they would take good care of their mother and child and would not do anything again.
"Actually, he still loves me. At the beginning, he..."
Man Qing could tell that Lin Fan's attitude was different from yesterday, she still couldn't let go of this feeling, maybe she really loved Wu Jia, she was explaining to herself, or comforting herself.
"Okay, as long as you live well." She didn't persuade Lin Fan any more, no matter whether Lin Fan got married or not, she knew that they would have nothing to do.
In fact, these years, Man Qing didn't want Lin Fan to break up, as long as she lived happily.She just wanted to be by her side, but she forgot what kind of identity she wanted.When she found out that she fell in love with Lin Fan, she struggled and hesitated.She knew she had a boyfriend and wasn't jealous.Looking back, I'm not even sure if I really loved her.
The day Lin Fan went to S City, she felt that her world had become blank, and that the city she had lived in for four years no longer had anyone she missed.Sometimes Man Qing would also examine herself, whether it was love for Lin Fan, or just greed for that company.
Man Qing couldn't figure it out, so she asked for leave and went to Vancouver. Lin Fan informed her of the wedding date. She didn't have any emotions. On the day she returned to China at the airport, she wanted to cry inexplicably, feeling that the only person she cared about was also leaving.Man Qing had very little relationship with her family since she was a child, and she seldom went home after graduation. Lin Fan was her first close friend.
She had no contact with Lin Fan at all, probably in the second month after their marriage, that time Wu Jia quarreled with her again and broke her arm, but the child was fine.
"How can you decide to leave him, you can forgive me for beating you again and again, have you ever thought about what to do when the child is born, and let him live in this environment since he was a child?" Man Qing was very angry. Getting angry at Lin Fan for the first time
"I want to give birth to a child, I can't live without a child," Lin Fan said
"My child, my child, you never thought about it. Anyway, he is the father of the child. After you were born, it is impossible for you to have nothing to do with him in this life."
"What do you mean, do you also want me to kill the child? I don't want my marriage to be a joke." Lin Fan hung up the phone.
Man Qing didn't call again, and after sitting at home for a whole day, she felt that she shouldn't be involved in any of Lin Fan's affairs anymore, she was too tired, too tired.
After a long period of time, they didn't contact each other. Man Qing didn't want to stay in this city, so she resigned and went to Xi'an.
Thinking of those pasts, Manqing now seems to be too far away. If she had feelings for Lin Fan, she would have let go of them long ago.She felt that she was an unfeeling person, and when she decided to let go, it was only a few months before she stopped thinking about her, and she no longer had any emotions when she heard others mention it.
Coming to S City was not considered to be for Lin Fan. After attending the wedding, she stayed in S City for a few days and felt that it was not bad, and it was also close to her home in X City.When I met Zhang Xin in Xi'an, I almost hit it off and came here.It is true that she doesn't want to stay in her hometown anymore and wants to change her environment.So far she has not told others that she is in S City.
Only her sister and brother-in-law came to her several times and wanted her to return to the company to help, but she refused.
☆、Manqing's life experience
Manqing was born in a small rural town in X City. Family planning was very strict in the 80s. Their family has been landlords for generations, and their father’s generation has been a single heir for three generations. Although the father’s family is considered poor, grandparents still want to Grandson, parents too, Manqing and sister are only one year apart. Compared with the joy of the first child, the second girl, the family members are very frustrated. When the mother is pregnant with her, she hides and goes home only when she is about to give birth. Manqing's existence is only known to his family and relatives.
Later, my aunt took Manqing, who was not yet full moon, home to raise her. Within a year, her mother was pregnant with her younger brother, and she returned to her home when Manqing was two years old.
Her grandparents didn't like her, her parents didn't love her, her sisters, younger brothers and peers bullied her, these almost occupied Manqing's childhood.She didn't understand why, but everyone said that she was brought in, not the biological child of her parents.
She often cries, and every time she cries, she walks in the direction of her aunt's house. She thinks that there is still hope. It doesn't matter if it's not her parents. At least she can imagine that she is just like other children, loved by her parents. Yes, it's just that they are not by her side.
Her parents thought she was not good-looking, not as smart as her elder sister and younger brother, and never took her to relatives' homes. Until Manqing grew up, many people still didn't know Manqing's existence.
In her childhood, when other people's children were playing, she carefully followed her grandmother and helped her with housework, hoping that she would scold her less.But no matter what she did, she still had to be teased every day, and every time she cried, those people would let her go.
Taking it as fun to make her cry, she has been insecure since she was a child and alienated from everyone.
She remembered that when she was in elementary school, she was playing by the river with her younger brother and a few other children in the village. Her father kicked her from behind when he saw her passing by, thinking that she would not take care of her younger brother, and took him to the river too. Danger.She has always been afraid of her father, and it is estimated that the total number of words she has spoken to her father in the past few decades will not exceed a hundred.
I don't know what fatherly love is.
Her parents only let her finish junior high school, and then arranged for her to work.In other people's blooming and rainy seasons, she only had to work hard every day, and she cried silently to the books pressed in the corner.But she does not resent her parents. She did not do well in the senior high school entrance examination, and her parents have no obligation to spend money to repeat her exams.Their hope will always be their sister and brother.
When she left home after work, her parents didn't buy her a single piece of clothing, and didn't give her a penny. The only three hundred yuan she had was given to her by her aunt.During that time, she was living in the company dormitory, and she really had no money to borrow from her colleagues. She would pay back the salary next month, and it took a long time to have any money left. Fortunately, her parents didn't ask her for money.
Later, she studied while working, and finally obtained a university diploma. No colleague ever believed that she only graduated from junior high school.Manqing is particularly bookish, and her colleagues joked about her early on, calling her Wenqing.
Looking back, she is grateful to her parents for letting her be completely independent and reborn through hardships.
She is not like her family at all. It is true that she is not as beautiful as her elder sister. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but no one has ever denied that she has a unique temperament.
Manqing is proud in her bones, and when she grows up, she no longer longs for the attention of her parents. She obtains everything that other parents can give her through her own efforts.She doesn't envy anyone and can find a balance.
When she encountered unhappy things when she was a child, she recorded them in her diary bit by bit.When she was very young, she was still very extreme. Looking back now, she feels relieved. If her parents had kept her by their side, they would probably have arranged for her to marry.But now she has her own thoughts and is an independent individual, and no one can control her.
Like the other children, she bought them things and gave them money during the Chinese New Year, but she didn't have family affection, and she couldn't pretend to be kind, so she seldom went home. When she came to S City, she never went back for the Chinese New Year.
After work, both parents strongly denied that they didn't like her when they were young, and they always claimed that they treated the three children equally, and did not admit what they had done to her before.Man Qing didn't want to say anything.
I don't have feelings for them, but I can't ignore them, and occasionally buy them something and give them some money.
Perhaps because of these shadows in her childhood, Manqing never thought of getting married.Many people chased her during work.
She can accept a slight distance, but she resists being touched by others.Every time the other party brought up the trend of discussing marriage, she would break up without hesitation.She never thought carefully about whether she liked men.
After meeting Lin Fan, she remembered that when she was watching TV dramas since she was a child, all she paid attention to and liked were the heroines.She just felt that there was a problem. After searching the Internet, she probably understood it and was afraid of it.Then accept the reality frankly.
It's the same whether you like men or women, the premise is that you have to like that person, and then the gender.
No one said that homosexuality is just seeing the same gender and falling in love, so there is no difference.Manqing thinks so
☆, a woman with a flashlight
Lin Qi took a few lunch breaks and went to walk in the clouds, but she never saw Manqing.She was not there on weekends, Zhang Xin said that she didn't come here recently, and when she came, she sat in the lounge in a daze, as if she had something on her mind.
Lin Qi is a very decisive person. When she finds her own person, she doesn't want to procrastinate. Maybe it's because she is abroad. She knows that Zhang Xin likes Manqing, but she doesn't want to give up. The relationship is between two people, and there is no other person. back down.
As long as Man Qing also likes her, she will not consider other factors.
February 2th is Qiming International's company annual meeting. This is Lin Qi's first annual meeting after returning to China. Lin Zhengliang attaches great importance to it. He has invited many friends and related customers. He wants everyone to know that Lin Qi belongs to Lin Zhengliang. Daughter, the last president of Qiming International.
Secretary Xiao asked Lin Qi if she wanted to invite
