They say that memory is a kind of hangover. I am actually not good at memory because most of my memories are painful.
I forced a smile and said to Huang Li: "Because of chocolate, I came to your bar to accompany customers at that time, and the snacks prepared in your bar happened to be chocolate."
"That's why you agreed to design a program for me."
"Yes, just because of this, otherwise I would not accept such a small order."
Huang Li laughed and said, "It seems like we got connected because of chocolate."
"That's right, but then I ate too much chocolate, but I no longer felt happy from it, and I don't like eating it that much now."
Huang Li fell silent, but then she giggled again after a period of silence.
I asked her why she was laughing, and she told me: "You reminded me of myself. I remembered that I loved Barbie when I was little. I would take Barbie to bed with me every day, and I would help her comb her hair.
I bought her a lot of beautiful dresses, but when I grew up, I thought it was too childish."
"Don't all little girls like this?"
Huang Li waved her hand and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. I want to sleep for a while."
I looked at the time and said to her: "It may be there in less than an hour."
"It's okay, I can sleep for a while, I'm so tired." After saying that, she closed her eyes.
I didn't bother her anymore. I was a little bored, so I took out my phone and started reading casually.
In the circle of friends, I saw that Sun Xiaoxiao posted a message half an hour ago, which was located at the Capital Airport and attached a photo of the plane.
The copywriting reads: Chengdu, I’m back.
It seems that she has also returned to Chengdu. I should arrive before her. I will take Huang Li to have dinner with her tonight.
Nearly an hour later, the high-speed train we took finally arrived at Chengdu East Railway Station. I took Huang Li out of the train station and took the subway to my residence in Chengdu.
On the way, I said to Huang Li: "My boss is Sun Xiaojie. She will also be in Chengdu. I will take you to have a meal with her tonight."
Huang Li shrugged and said, "It's okay, you can arrange it."
I nodded, then took out my phone and sent a text message to Sun Xiaoxiao, saying to her: "Call me when you get to Chengdu. I'm in Chengdu now."
After I put down the phone, Huang Li suddenly asked me: "Tell me, what can I do?"
I didn't understand what she meant for a while, so I asked, "What do you mean?"
"I have to find something to do. What do you think I can do?"
"Look at you, what do you want to do?"
"I don't know either. I have never worked outside and I don't have any skills."
"Then go to the factory."
"Enter the factory?!" Huang Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Are you kidding me?"
"I'm not kidding, the factory trains people very much, otherwise they would have to work in sales."
Huang Li seemed interested in this and nodded: "The sales are not bad. I will go out to find a job tomorrow."
"Are you serious?"
"Do you think I'm joking with you?" she said seriously.
I sighed softly and said, "If you ask me, don't be impatient. Wait until you are stable in Chengdu before you think about work. Besides, it's just the beginning of the new year."
"It's because it's just the beginning of the new year and many places need people, and I don't have any money right now! If you don't work, you have to support me!"
I took out the bank card her mother gave me, handed it to her and said, "Your mother gave me this card, keep it first."
Huang Li stared at the bank card in my hand, stunned and said: "When did she give it to you?"
"I was in the hospital just yesterday. Your mother is really far-sighted. I feel like she prepared this bank card a long time ago just to be afraid of this day coming."
Huang Li said with a somewhat absent-minded wry smile: "My mother is really capable. She was already the deputy bureau chief of a prefecture-level city before she resigned. At that time, my father was just a regular employee."
"Your father's current position should be deputy director, right?"
"Well," Huang Li nodded and said, "I guess so. I don't know much about it. Anyway, there are quite a few people who want to target my dad in recent years."
"That's right. The higher the power, the heavier the responsibility. Of course, the more people will be jealous of him."
"I don't like the intrigues in their officialdom. Fortunately, they haven't forced me to do things I don't like since I was a child."
I laughed and said, "Actually, there are intrigues everywhere, and it's the same in shopping malls. It's just that the environment and interpersonal relationships we face are different."
Huang Li sighed and said: "You said that if my dad was persecuted by someone in the officialdom, I would understand, but if he was persecuted like this by a businessman, I can't understand it."
"Because Min Wenbin is not a simple person, I have been dealing with him for a year."
"I don't believe no one can cure him."
"Yes, he will definitely be punished by God one day, and his punishment must be me."
"If I had known I should have been more cruel to him last time. This is when the tiger returns home."
"Don't say that either. If you were too cruel to him last time, the consequences may be more serious now."
"Are you that afraid of him?" Huang Li turned to look at me.
"I'm afraid of him, but what I said is the truth, because I have fought with him for so long, and I know very well what kind of person he is. A devil who even framed his cousin An Lan to death, what else do you think could happen?
He can't do it."
"Do you have evidence to prove that An Lan was killed by him?"
I shook my head and sighed: "If I had, he would have gone in long ago. It is precisely because there is no evidence that I can't do anything against him."
"If someone like him asks me to use force against him, I don't believe he is not afraid of death."
"Okay, let's not talk about him anymore. Anyway, trust me, I will definitely use all my means to fight him to the end this time."
When I returned to my residence, I put away Huang Li's luggage and then took her downstairs to have lunch.
During the process, I received a call from Jiang He. He first said hello to me, and then asked me when I would return to Chengdu.
I told him that I was already in Chengdu, and he said to me: "That's good, call your boss and let's talk about the issue of share distribution."
"It will probably be tomorrow. My boss has just returned from Beijing and should still be on the plane now."
"What about tonight? That's right. I happen to be free today. I'm going abroad tomorrow and I won't be back until a week later."
Since this was the case, I had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I'll tell my boss when she comes back, where should we meet?"
"Just at my house. I'll send you the address later."
I glanced at Huang Li and said, "Can I bring one more friend?"
"Okay, no problem, just treat me as a guest."
After answering, I hung up the phone and said to Huang Li: "You and I will go to my place tonight, we are going to talk about some work matters."
"Since it's a work matter, I won't get involved."
"It's okay, I already said it, just go with me."
Huang Li nodded and said nothing more. After eating, I took her for a walk around the area and found a tea stall to sit down and drink tea.
This is life in Chengdu. There are various tea stalls everywhere in the streets and alleys. Regardless of men, women, old or young, as long as they are in Chengdu, they will sit in a teahouse, listen to storytelling, and watch their faces change.
Maybe this is what life is like, but it’s just ignored by most of us.?
