My 26-year-old Female Tenant

After I sent the message that I was fearless to Mi Cai, she immediately called back, which surprised me, because since she went to the United States, there has always been a tacit understanding between us: It's not a particularly important thing, so I won't communicate directly by phone.

  I got through the phone and didn't say anything, just waiting for Mi Cai to say something to me.

   "Zhaoyang, why are you suddenly full of aggression?"

  I almost blurted out: "This stage is too difficult, I need such aggression to break the ice in front of me."

  "The market is changing rapidly, too aggressive will make people lose the overall view, which is not good for the growth of a boss."

I smiled and said: "From your height, the overall situation is of course very important, because you will not only face cruel market competition, but also internal conflicts within the group, but what I am managing now is just a The inn, the environment I am in is not as complicated as yours, and my biggest enemy is myself, and I really need this kind of aggressiveness to maintain my advantage over myself."

  Mi Cai was silent for a while before saying: "Maybe I'm worrying too much!"

   "Did you call just to remind me of this?"

   "Not all... I want to hear your voice."

  I was taken aback for a moment, and then I remembered that I didn’t have much contact with Mi Cai in the past two days, and it could even be said to be neglected. I couldn’t help asking myself, is this neglect also related to my over-eager desire for success?

  I can't say it, but these few days, I have been really busy, and I hardly have any free time. All my energy is spent on preparing for the meeting with Yang Congrong, but isn't Mi Cai busy?

   "Why didn't you talk?"

  I came back to my senses, and then I said to her with some apology: "I was thinking about how busy I am, and I haven't contacted you for two days!"

  Mi Cai didn't care about me, she smiled and changed the subject, and said, "Sing me a song."

"What song is it?"

   "I have horns on my head, and a tail behind me. No one knows how many secrets I have...Okay, I've already started for you, you can continue singing."

I smiled helplessly, this is a children's song that once made me feel embarrassed, and now Mi Cai let me sing it again, most of it is a small punishment for me, so she is a very smart woman, saving face for me At the same time, a reminder will be given.

  I squeezed my throat and sang in a childish voice. Mi Cai laughed as she listened...

  After I finished singing, she said: "Thank you for singing this song for me, I feel a lot more relaxed, and I will be in a good state to devote to work in the afternoon."

   "I thought you were singing nursery rhymes to punish me for not contacting you these two days!"

   "Are you thinking too much?"

   "Who made you so sluggish before, how much has I suffered! That's why I have such inertial thinking..."

  I only spoke halfway, and I vaguely heard her assistant on the other end of the phone reminding her to attend the business meeting on time.

   After Mi Cai responded, she hurriedly said to me: "Zhaoyang, I have a meeting to attend right away, we'll talk tonight."

"Um."

  Before she hung up the phone, Mi Cai took the time to hum two nursery rhymes to me, which made me dumbfounded. In fact, she is not as indifferent as she looks, sometimes very lively and childlike.

After finishing the call, I put the phone aside, reminiscing about Mi Cai’s singing before hanging up the phone, temporarily forgetting the pressure I will face tomorrow, and then I suddenly realized that maybe this is why Mi Cai asked me to sing nursery rhymes The real purpose, not the punishment I thought.

  …

  The night was not too deep, so I sat up from the bed again, looking out the window in a daze, and it took me a long time to notice that there are so many stars twinkling in the sky tonight.

  Lighted a cigarette, took a few puffs leisurely, and then remembered to look for the city in the sky in the bright starry sky.

   Soon I gave up, because I knew very well that the city was getting farther and farther away from me now, but whether I was lost or the city was drifting away, I couldn't figure it out at all.

I put out the cigarette **** in my hand, but at the moment before the smoke dissipated, I saw that beautiful woman with long hair hanging down her shoulders, so I stared at her not far away for a long time and asked myself: which city is this? The comfort you gave me before it disappeared, or is it a gift?

  I don't have a more complicated problem in my life than this, I'm going to think about it... think about it.

  …

  The next day, I got up early in the morning, washed up, and drove to the breakfast restaurant that I had an appointment with Jian Wei.

   Entered the store, ordered breakfast, waited for about five minutes, Jian Wei arrived within the agreed time, and she sat down opposite me.

  I handed a drawer of steamed buns to her, she thanked me very politely, and then asked me: "How is it, how do you feel now?"

   "Soldiers came to cover the water and earth, very calm feeling."

   Jian Wei smiled and said, "That's good."

I nodded, then picked up my chopsticks and ate breakfast, but my heart was not as calm as I said, in fact, I was against meeting Jian Boyu, but Jian Wei had already given me a reason why he had to go , I really have no way to refuse, I can only hope that when we meet at noon, I can consciously regard him as an interview object, and I will not think of the rejection he once gave me from the commanding heights.

  Jian Wei's appetite doesn't seem to be as good as it was last night. She just ate a small steamed bun and drank a cup of soy milk before finishing her breakfast.

  I didn't want to keep her waiting, so I speeded up the speed of eating breakfast.

   "Zhaoyang, the time for our interview is 11:30 noon, you should eat slowly, you are not in a hurry."

   "Then you should eat some more, there are still several hours until noon!"

   "No appetite."

"What's wrong?"

   "I have no appetite when I think about seeing Jian Boyu."

  I smiled and said, "Are you kidding me?

   "Who are you kidding, I haven't been back to Shanghai for more than a month."

  I tentatively asked again in a joking tone: "To be honest, I also dislike your father, but do you still need to share the same hatred with me now?"

   "You are wrong. The reason why I don't want to see him is because he gave me too much life that I didn't want when I was young."

  Jian Wei's explanation is really flawless. After I nodded, I stopped thinking about it.

  …

   After a while, I finished my breakfast. Because there was more time, Jian Wei and I didn't leave the breakfast shop immediately, but took advantage of the gap to rest.

I looked at the time, and it was just past eight o'clock in the morning. Mi Cai in New York should have finished work by this time, so I sent her a WeChat message as a prank: "I'm going to Shanghai soon, and I'm suddenly very nervous. Sing a song to make me relax."
