Volume 1 Kindness must have a sharp edge
When I heard the knock on the door, my first reaction was takeaway. When I opened the door, I saw that it was indeed takeaway, but it was Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue raised the takeaway in his hand and smiled bitterly, "I happened to meet the delivery guy before going upstairs. When I saw that it was you who ordered it, I took it up."
I greeted him with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"Oh, I just want to find you some drinks! Alas... Feifei is here too? You..." He said absent-mindedly.
I smiled and pushed him, "It's not what you think, but she's staying here for me these two days."
I found something was wrong with him, his face turned pale and his eyes were dull, but he didn't speak, and I didn't ask directly.
Zhao Yue smiled, "I didn't bother you, did I?"
Lin Feifei's cheeks were a little red, "No, I just so happen to want to drink some too!"
"That's great." Zhao Yue finally felt better.
The barbecue I ordered, and with beer, this combination has been a memory for many years.
Before I could sit down, the doorbell rang again.
Lin Feifei widened her eyes and looked at me, "What have you ordered?"
I shrugged, "I didn't place anything."
When I opened the door, I saw Zhou Shutong standing outside.
She had already taken off her makeup and stood in front of me with clear soup and noodles, but since she was facing the sky, she was still so beautiful that she was so beautiful.
"Have you eaten? Do you want to try my skills?" Zhou Shutong raised the lunch box in his hand and said with a smile.
"Okay! I happen to have friends at home, let's eat together!"
Zhou Shutong was stunned, then smiled, "Isn't it okay?"
"What's wrong with it? Feifei, you know him, and another one is my buddy."
After saying that, I pulled her in.
As soon as Zhou Shutong came in, I introduced her and Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue greeted her with a smile, "I have heard Binzi say that his neighbor is a beautiful woman. When I saw it today, it turned out to be well-deserved."
Zhou Shutong glanced at me and smiled and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. I didn't expect that there were so many people in his family. I would have known to cook a few more dishes."
I laughed, "Two dishes are enough, I also ordered barbecue! You guys sit down first, I'll get the dishes."
"Yu Bin, here."
As soon as I walked into the living room, Zhou Shutong and Lin Feifei said to me in unison.
“…”
Damn Zhao Yue was sitting between them, and they both spoke in unison, and I felt my head full.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward at this time.
I gave Zhao Yue a wink. He instantly understood the brothers who had been there for so many years. He stood up and waved to me, "Binzi, sit here, I'll go to the bathroom."
I was relieved, my brother who had been many years of understanding me.
I sat down between the two of them, and it was obvious that the atmosphere became a little subtle. When Zhao Yue came back, I took the initiative to pick up a glass, "This is the first time that the four of us have drunk, come and go."
Originally, I just wanted to take a sip, but Zhao Yue raised his head and fucked the whole cup.
I quickly dried the wine in the glass again and asked him: "What's wrong with you today? Tell me about your brother if you have any worries."
Zhao Yue glanced at the other two beauties and smiled, "It's nothing, I just want to drink with you. Can you miss you?"
I looked straight at him, "Zhao Yue, tell me the truth, I don't know you yet?"
Zhao Yue poured the cup in front of him again with wine, raised his head and drank it all in one breath, sighed silently, and said in a deep thought:
“I’m unemployed.”
These four words alone made me silent.
The unemployment of adults began with the collapse. I felt this inner torment. I said nothing, silently raised my glass and accompanied him with another glass.
"How about the unemployment gift package? Are you still satisfied?" I asked.
Zhao Yue shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I was forced to resign, so there is no compensation to get."
I frowned, and at this time, Zhou Shutong handed us a skewer each.
"Don't drink, eat something."
I took it and took a bite, "What's going on?"
Zhao Yue stared at the floor dullly, and his voice was low: "Our company's performance has been bad this year, but the boss is also very stingy and doesn't want to pay compensation. He talked to me once before, and then he heard that I wanted to go back to my hometown and tactfully persuaded him to leave. He saw that I didn't leave, and he looked for trouble every day. He cursed me in front of the whole office at all times. Today, he scolded me again. I became popular and started to scold him, and then I was fired."
After saying this, Zhao Yue had already drunk a bottle of beer. He held a cigarette, but his hands were shaking violently. Lin Feifei took the lighter and lit it for him with his own hands.
I took a sip of the wine, "What are you going to do?"
Zhao Yue smiled bitterly, "What else can I do? Just find a job! Don't tell Jingjing! I want to hide it first!"
I laughed angry and said, "I'm hiding it! I mean you have to ask the company for compensation! He is illegal."
Zhao Yue looked hesitant, pondered for a moment, and sighed, "I don't know what you said, but this is too troublesome, and if there is arbitration, it may be when it will be! What if it affects me to find a second job..."
I couldn't help but interrupt him, "What if I don't know, I'll accompany you to arbitration tomorrow."
"He has gotten away several people in our company. I am not the first one, so I will arbitrate..."
"You are the ones you are accustomed to. If anyone dares to arbitrate, he will not dare to be so arrogant."
Zhao Yue was silent, took a sip of wine, and then said for a while: "Am I too cowardly?"
I touched his glass with him and said with a smile: "You are not too cowardly, you are just too honest. There is no need to affect your own view of yourself because of their badness."
Zhou Shutong smiled and comforted him: "It's the workplace! Sometimes taking a step back may not be a vast sky. Maybe others think you are easy to bully and will only gain a better position."
Lin Feifei also advised: "Yes, don't care too much about what others say in the workplace, and don't think you are weak. In fact, you are not wrong. They are wrong. You just need to make your kindness a little sharp."
Zhao Yue smiled bitterly and sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that I was thirty years old, and I would even ask others to enlighten me. Binzi, I complained so much with you, won't you bother me, right?"
I laughed and scolded, "What are you talking about! We are buddies. After so many years, no adults have any worries! Who are you talking to me?"
Zhao Yue mentioned another cup, "Just say this to you, my buddy has done this cup."
The four of us raised our glasses together and drank a sip of wine before I asked, "How are you going to talk to Jingjing about this?"
As soon as I finished speaking, my phone rang.
When I opened it, I immediately smiled bitterly.
It’s true that Cao Cao arrived. As soon as he finished talking, Lu Jingjing’s phone call came...
