Seeing Guan Ju'er frozen on the spot, Lin Ze asked with a smile: "Are you going to the company soon?"
Guan Juer nodded blankly and followed Lin Ze's words and said: "I didn't notice when I left in the morning, and I left the USB flash drive at home."
She knew that Qiu Yingying once proposed to Lin Ze that she should be Lin Ze's assistant.
She subconsciously didn't want Lin Ze to know that she had not passed her internship period and was now unemployed.
Maybe this has something to do with her little thoughts.
Lin Ze is undoubtedly the most outstanding peer beside her, and she undoubtedly has a certain fondness for Lin Ze.
That's why she rejected Qiu Yingying's proposal and now doesn't want to lose face in front of Lin Ze.
"Bye then!" Lin Ze opened the door of 2203 and waved to Guan Ju'er.
"Hmm."
Guan Ju'er forced an ugly smile on his face, opened the door with the key and walked into 2202.
As soon as he entered, Guan Juer immediately closed the door, covered his face with his hands, and squatted down while looking at the door.
Guan Ju'er was afraid that Lin Ze next door would hear him, so he covered his mouth and cried quietly.
She didn't tell Qiu Yingying that she was unemployed, and she didn't dare to tell her parents.
If she can't find a job again, she may not even be able to pay next month's rent.
Especially after Fan Shengmei is gone, she and Qiu Yingying have to bear the rent for the three of them.
I don't know how long I cried like this before Guan Juer wiped away his tears and stood up.
Guan Juer thought about what she had just said to Lin Ze. She had not planned to go out today but decided to go out for a walk in the afternoon to see if there were any good job opportunities.
Lin Ze next door lay down on the sofa and watched TV as soon as he got home. After watching for a while, Lin Ze felt a little hungry and reached out to open the drawer under the living room. This is where he usually puts the snacks at home.
Lin Ze rummaged for a long time, but they were all biscuits and other things that he didn't like to eat.
He was looking for something tasty to eat, whether it was ice cream or spicy strips.
Unfortunately, there were no more at home. Lin Ze put on his shoes helplessly. In order to satisfy his appetite, he decided to go to the supermarket for a stroll.
After all, he really wants to eat spicy strips and ice cream now.
When Lin Ze went out, Guan Juer had been gone for a while.
July and August are the hottest months in the Magic City, and Lin Ze wanted to retreat as soon as he came out of the building.
However, since the city was out, it would be a bit of a loss not to go shopping, so Lin Ze could only try to walk in places with shade.
As he walked, Lin Ze felt something stir under his feet.
"Ah!"
Guan Ju'er ran out at noon and went to the job market for a while. Seeing that there was no chance, he took the subway back to the community.
She was worried that Qiu Yingying would notice something strange when she always came home too early, so she simply wanted to lie down on a bench with shade trees in the community for a while.
She specially picked a bench in the opposite direction to the subway, and this road happened to be the road leading to the convenience store in the community.
She felt a little dazed while lying down, and her upper eyelids and lower eyelids began to fight frequently.
Until she felt her leg being hit by someone else, Guan Juer woke up with a start and screamed.
"Guan Guan? Why are you here?" Lin Ze also didn't expect that the person he happened to meet would be Guan Ju'er.
Didn’t she go to work? Why was she lying on the bench in the community?
Guan Ju'er stood up from the bench in embarrassment, lowered his head and didn't know what to say.
After all, when Lin Ze asked her before, she vowed to go to work at noon.
As a result, her lie was exposed by Lin Ze when she turned around. If Lin Ze lowered his head to look, he would definitely find that Guan Ju'er's face was so red that it was almost bleeding.
Lin Ze looked at Guan Ju'er and knew that something unexpected might have happened to her at work.
Lin Ze invited: "I'm going to a convenience store, will you go?"
Guan Juer just followed Lin Ze in a daze, walking step by step towards the convenience store in the community.
After Lin Ze picked out the spicy strips he wanted to eat, he turned to look at Guan Ju'er behind him and asked, "Have you had lunch?"
Guan Ju'er quickly raised his head and refused and said: "I've eaten it."
"Gu..."
But her unsatisfactory belly brought her down at this moment.
Guan Juer lowered his head in embarrassment again, secretly burying his guilt in her belly.
When is it not good for you to protest? Do you have to protest at this time? What if you did it earlier?
Lin Ze, holding back his laughter, came to the fruit and vegetable section, "I happened to not have eaten at noon, how about having hot pot together?"
Lin Ze didn't give Guan Ju'er a chance to refuse. He picked up two packages of hot pot base and asked, "Do you like spicy or non-spicy?"
Guan Ju'er felt that she had lost everyone she could lose today anyway, so she whispered: "I like tomatoes."
"Then let's eat the mandarin duck pot, one spicy and one tomato."
Then Lin Ze took some enoki mushrooms, bean curds, prawns, mutton rolls, pissed beef balls and other things.
The blush on Guan Ju'er's face barely faded a little, leaving only a small puddle in the center of her cheek.
She mustered up the courage to reach out to Lin Ze and said, "Brother Lin, let me lift it for you."
"I'll give it to you after you pay."
Lin Ze carried a large bag of ingredients and walked towards the counter. Guan Juer followed behind him a little awkwardly.
"Bang!"
Guan Juer accidentally bumped into Lin Ze who suddenly stopped.
Guan Ju'er put the back of his hand on his forehead. It was not because his forehead hurt from being hit.
Instead, she wanted to use the back of her hand to cool down her face and cover up her embarrassed expression.
Guan Ju'er felt that everything was going wrong for her today, and all kinds of unlucky things happened to her.
Lin Ze opened the door of the freezer, looked at the various ice creams inside and asked, "Which one do you want to eat?"
"Little pudding." Seeing that Lin Ze didn't seem to notice what happened, Guan Ju'er quickly put down his hand and went to the freezer and said.
"Take more." Lin Ze took some of the ice cream he wanted to eat.
After settling the bill, Guan Juer took the initiative to take the bag handed over by the boss.
There were so many things that Guan Ju'er bought that he couldn't carry them all with both hands.
Lin Ze on the side couldn't stand it and said, "Just take the bag with the vegetables and ice cream, and leave the rest to me."
"Oh."
Guan Juer obediently handed Lin Ze the bag except for the vegetables and ice cream.
Lin Ze feels that Guan Juer is a bit silly and cute today.
After returning to 2203, Guan Juer took the initiative to walk into the kitchen and start processing the ingredients.
Lin Ze washed the mandarin duck pot used for hot pot, and then began to adjust the bottom of the pot.
Guan Ju'er thought with some extravagant hope, how wonderful it would be if time could stay at this moment forever.
She really likes this home-like feeling and atmosphere, which is exactly the same as her fantasy future life.
After Lin Ze saw that Guan Ju'er had almost eaten, he took the initiative to suggest: "Are you having difficulties at work?"
Guan Ju'er bit her lower lip. She didn't know whether she should tell Lin Ze the truth.
After hesitating for a long time, Guan Ju'er finally said: "Yes."
Guan Juer was a little sad and told Lin Ze the whole process of why she failed to pass the internship period.
"Brother Lin, do you think I really did something wrong?"
Lin Ze said calmly: "This has nothing to do with right or wrong. When you are incapable, you have to abide by the rules of society, especially the unspoken rules."
Seeing Guan Ju'er looking shocked by reality, Lin Ze couldn't bear to say: "Do you want to come to my place?"
