In the courtyard of the Provincial Party Committee.
The battle that Li Dong had imagined did not happen.
Although Qin Yuhan and Shen Qian were both there, they seemed to be two parallel lines that did not intersect with each other.
Qin Yuhan was setting up the scene outside, and Shen Qian was helping to cook in the kitchen.
When Qin Yuhan finished her work and went into the room to clean up, Shen Qian went out to do something else.
They came and went, and they met several times in the middle, but they seemed to not see each other and just passed by each other.
Li Dong stood still in the courtyard, feeling as if he was in a daze.
Did he come to the right place?
Or, these two people were not in the same time and space at the moment. Otherwise, how could they not see each other?
It was not until Li Dong stood there for a while that Shen Qian greeted him with a smile, "You're back."
"Yes."
"You're back." This was Qin Yuhan's question.
Li Dong grunted again.
Shen Qian said, "Wait a little longer, we can eat soon."
"There's no hurry," Li Dong quickly replied.
At this time, Qin Yuhan also said, "Go inside and rest for a while. We'll eat later."
"Okay."
…
Li Dong shook his head and went into the room in a daze.
In the living room, Hu Xiaorui was watching TV with Little Shitou in her arms.
Li Dong had already known that she was coming, so he was not surprised. He walked to her and sat down. Li Dong looked back and lowered his voice, "What happened?"
Hu Xiaorui blinked and said, "What do you mean, what happened?"
"What do you think? Did something else happen to them today? "
"They started fighting."
"Ah?"
Hu Xiaorui sighed and said, "They fought for the whole afternoon. Fortunately, I was there, otherwise they would have died …"
"Nonsense!"
Li Dong couldn't help but roll his eyes. Did he really think that he was a fool?
Hu Xiaorui chuckled, then shook her head and said, "Anyway, when I came, they were already like this. If you weren't here, you wouldn't have seen it. Two people, I've been here for three hours, and I haven't said a word. I really admire them. They were less than 10 meters away from each other for 3 hours, yet they could hold back their words and not say a word to each other. If it were me, I would have long been driven mad. "
Li Dong couldn't help but be speechless when he heard this. These women were really scary. He probably hadn't talked to them for the whole day.
Carefully looking back, Li Dong asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
"I can't come?"
Hu Xiaorui's eyes widened. She glared at him and said, "I came to celebrate your birthday. Not only did you not thank me, but you also despise me!"
"That's not what I meant. You know, right now, my side …"
"Tsk!"
Hu Xiaorui despised him for a while. After a while, she snorted and said, "They can fight among themselves. I'm specially here to celebrate your birthday. I'm different from them. You gave me so many flowers for my birthday last year. Courtesy demands reciprocity. "
"Don't be so polite. You even gave me a tank last year."
"It's not a tank!" Hu Xiaorui said gloomily, "Who said it's a tank? I can drive it, okay?"
"If you say it's not, then it's not."
Li Dong couldn't be bothered to argue about this. He said, "Don't cause trouble later, do you hear me?"
"I know. Isn't it annoying? When did I cause trouble?"
Hu Xiaorui looked unhappy. When did she cause trouble? This guy actually didn't believe her. Damn it!
Li Dong didn't stay there for long. He wandered around with his hands behind his back for a while.
He went to the kitchen to take a look, and then to the yard to take a look.
In the end, he realized that the two of them were communicating quite normally with him. However, when they met each other, it was not normal.
It was as if they really didn't see each other. You talked about yours, I talked about mine.
Sometimes, when the three of them got together, Li Dong had to talk to Shen Qian on one side, and Qin Yuhan on the other side.
Sometimes, it was the same question, but when Li Dong had just finished answering, the other side began to ask the same question.
For a moment, Li Dong's whole person was about to split.
After being messed around by the two of them, Li Dong himself began to be in a trance. Do these two really exist in the same space?
Did I remember it wrong?
Or could it be that everything was just an illusion?
…
In a trance, this was how Li Dong felt the whole night.
That night, Shen Qian and Qin Yuhan really didn't communicate a word.
Fortunately, there was Hu Xiaorui, a girl who liked to be lively. Together with the two little girls, the three of them were noisy, so this birthday was not so boring.
If they were not around, Li Dong suspected that he would really have schizophrenia tonight.
After the meal and the cake was distributed, Hu Xiaorui brought the two little girls to have a cake fight in the courtyard.
However, Qin Yuhan and Shen Qian did not participate.
The three of them sat at the stone table and stared at each other. After a while, Qin Yuhan finally said with a smile, "Sister Shen Qian, it's late. Aren't you going home?"
It was the first conversation between the two of them that night.
Shen Qian did not beat around the bush. She chuckled and said, "My house is close. It's just a wall away. Sister Yuhan, your place is far away. Shall I send you back?"
"No need, I'll stay here tonight," Qin Yuhan said without showing any weakness.
Shen Qian's expression changed slightly. She then immediately smiled and said, "Why don't you chat with me tonight? We haven't seen each other for a while. Let's have a heart-to-heart talk. "
"Is it convenient?"
"Of course it's convenient. I live alone at my place. It's a little scary usually. Fortunately, Li Dong lives next door to me …"
This time, it was Qin Yuhan's turn to look uncomfortable. She forced a smile and said, "Then I'll chat with Sister Shen tonight."
"That's more than I can ask for."
"…"
Li Dong could not get a word in when the two of them were talking.
When they were done talking and settled, Li Dong then said dryly, "Are you guys staying together tonight?"
Shen Qian said with a smile, "Why? Are you worried?"
"No, of course not." Li Dong felt helpless. He sighed softly and said, "Don't do anything in the middle of the night."
Although the two of them did not hear it clearly, they could roughly guess what was going on.
Neither of them paid attention to him. The two of them, who had not talked to each other before, now had a lively conversation. They completely treated Li Dong as if he did not exist.
When Hu Xiaorui ran back with a face full of cream, she saw Shen Qian and Qin Yuhan laughing and chatting happily, while Li Dong was alone in a daze.
Hu Xiaorui moved closer to Li Dong and whispered, "Are these two mentally ill?"
Li Dong rolled his eyes. Before he could say anything, he heard Shen Qian say with a smile, "Xiaorui, it's getting late. If you don't go back now, I'm afraid Boss Hu will be worried. I'll ask someone to send you back."
Qin Yuhan also said, "Xiaorui, go home and rest early. Don't you have to go to the capital tomorrow? Sleep early and get up early. Otherwise, you won't look good with dark circles under your eyes. "
"Xiaorui, let's go. I'll send you."
"I'll send you too."
"…"
Hu Xiaorui was dumbfounded. Did I say I'm leaving?
It's only nine o 'clock. You call it getting late?
She was feeling the same as Li Dong. She was in a trance.
Although she was in a trance, she did not stop moving. Qin Yuhan carefully helped her wash her face, and Shen Qian politely helped her pick up her bag.
Then, she was sent out of the courtyard by the two of them.
When she was out of the door, Hu Xiaorui trembled and became sober!
She turned around and saw Qin Yuhan and Shen Qian waving at her with a smile behind her, as if they were sending her off.
Hu Xiaorui looked aggrieved. You can fight all you want. I didn't say anything, nor did I get involved. How did it become a gang to bully me? I'm still a child!
Previously, when the two of them were at loggerheads with each other, she was still happy and gloating.
Now, although they were fighting, they did not forget to not give others a chance.
It seemed that they were going to clear the place before the duel.
Hu Xiaorui pretended to be pitiful and said, "Sister Yuhan …"
Qin Yuhan did not wait for her to finish and immediately said with a smile, "Xiaorui, be careful on the road. I'll ask Brother Zheng to send you back. Call me when you get home."
"But …"
"Xiaorui, is there anything else?" Qin Yuhan asked with a puzzled look.
Shen Qian also chuckled and said, "Xiaorui, say hello to Auntie Sun for me when you arrive in the capital."
"I … Okay."
Hu Xiaorui was helpless and finally swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
She looked at Li Dong again. At this moment, Li Dong was looking up at the sky, as if he was in a trance and did not know what was going on.
Hu Xiaorui bit her lip and glared at him.
Feeling the killing intent, Li Dong lowered his head with a smile and shrugged his shoulders to express his helplessness.
Hu Xiaorui did not stay any longer. She got in the car, opened the window, and looked at Li Dong. "I'm leaving!"
"Be careful on the road."
"Got it!"
Without saying goodbye to Shen Qian and Qin Yuhan, Hu Xiaorui asked the driver to start the car.
After the car left, Shen Qian and Qin Yuhan, who were very close just a moment ago, looked at each other and then took a small step back, distancing themselves from each other.
Li Dong looked a little helpless and said, "Now you …"
"We're going back to rest. You should rest early too. Don't you have to go to Shancheng? Make sure you get enough sleep." Shen Qian said.
Qin Yuhan said, "Go to bed early. We're all resting tomorrow. Don't worry about us."
"Then, you guys should go to bed early too."
Li Dong had no choice but to watch the two go to Shen Qian's courtyard.
Just like that, his 23rd birthday passed uneventfully.
It could be predicted that Li Dong would not be able to sleep well tonight.
…
In the courtyard next door.
Shen Qian and Qin Yuhan naturally could not sleep well either.
The two tossed and turned, and they still could not sleep until the early hours of the morning.
After an unknown period of time, in the darkness, Qin Yuhan whispered, "You have such good conditions, and your father is a big shot. You should have a lot of choices. Why did you think of going Far away?"
"Accident."
"Accident?"
The dark space tore away the last layer of disguise.
Shen Qian's voice was a little absent-minded. "It was an accident. At that time, I had just graduated and returned home. My mother wanted me to go to the capital and work in the Shen family. My father wanted me to take the civil service exam and work in the government. He did not ask for a bright future, but he wanted to live a stable life. "
"I did not want to enter the Shen family, nor did I want to take the civil service exam. I knew that if I took the exam, I would definitely pass.
But at that time, I had nothing to do at home, so I casually submitted a few resumes.
In fact, at first, I did not even know about Far away.
It was not that I did not know about it at all. I vaguely heard people mention it a few times, and my father seemed to have mentioned it once.
Later, I did not know how the resumes I submitted ended up in the hands of the headhunters.
They contacted me and said that Far away needed a vice president and asked if I was interested.
In fact, at this time, there were already a few companies contacting me to work. After all, I was considered an overseas returnee, so it was quite popular.
Far away, I only knew that it was a supermarket, so I did not pay much attention to it.
But after all, a vice president sounded good. At least it made people feel that it was quite high class, so I agreed to give it a try. "
"And then?"
"And then …" Shen Qian chuckled. "And then there was no then. Far away rejected me.
It was normal to be rejected when looking for a job.
When the headhunter told me about it, he said that the other party said that I was too young. I was not surprised at all.
After all, I was a vice president, and I was indeed too young.
At first, I did not think much about it.
In the end, it just so happened that one day, someone mentioned Li Dong to me. He said that he was only about 20 years old and Far away's president.
I thought about it. That's not right. You're only so old as a boss, why do you despise me for being young?!
After all, I graduated from a famous school with a master's degree, and I'm also an overseas returnee. It's normal for others to despise me for being young, but you despised me too. You looked down on me too much! "
"So, you changed your mind?"
Shen Qian denied. "Not at first. I was a little angry, but I was too lazy to argue with him. Moreover, at that time, a company had already sent me an offer, and it was even a well-known company. Compared to Far away, they were much more famous. But after I worked for two days, I changed my mind. "
"Why?"
"Because other people knew that I was Du Anmin's daughter." Shen Qian said calmly, "I went to a large company, and I was a newcomer. Even if I'm an overseas returnee, I should at least do some basic work. But I didn't. When I went, the company's president personally received me. In less than three days, I became a permanent employee, and no one bullied me or bullied me. I didn't even go through the basic training process and went straight to work. My only task was to read the newspaper. I'm not an idiot. Of course, I knew that someone must have known my identity. "
"So, you went to Far away?"
"Yes, because this was the first company that rejected me. I knew that the other party definitely didn't know who I was.
At that time, I was very angry. I knew that my father must have told him about it.
Although he didn't care about it, I'm his only daughter. Of course, he couldn't really not care about it.
He must have known about the resumes that I submitted and the companies that I went to.
Even if he didn't tell him about it, his secretary could casually leak some information, and I would be worshipped in Jiangbei.
At that time, I was very angry, so I thought of rejecting me Far away.
Far away's company wasn't big, and the boss was also young. He definitely didn't have any deep connections, so naturally, he couldn't come in contact with someone like my father.
So, I resigned from the original company and went to Far away. "
Qin Yuhan sighed with emotion, "I see. I thought your first choice was Far Away."
Shen Qian said with a faint smile, "How is that possible? Everything can only be said to be a coincidence. If it was another time, maybe I wouldn't have appeared in Far Away. Or, Far Away would have been like any other company, going step by step, and I would've quickly lost interest and left. But fortunately, all of this didn't happen. That's why I'm here now. "
"Are you rejoicing?"
"Shouldn't I be?"
Qin Yuhan was speechless. After a long time, she said, "Sleep. I'm sleepy."
"Okay."
The two didn't talk anymore, and the room fell into silence.
But obviously, the two didn't feel sleepy and were thinking about their own things.
