When the documents were delivered to the administrative building, it was nearing the end of the day, and most of the staff inside were already packing their things, or chatting with their colleagues next to them.
When she walked into the office, no one paid any attention to Jian Anran. She walked very lightly and reached the deepest part of the office with familiarity. She placed the files on the desk of the administrative teacher who was in charge of her group, and immediately turned around and left.
As soon as she took the elevator downstairs, a familiar figure appeared in her sight on the stone steps outside.
Taking a closer look, it was Mi Yingying who had been missing for two days.
"Senior Sister Yingying!" Jian Anran shouted. The person in front turned back in surprise, and she quickly waved.
The amplitude of the wave was so large that Jian Anran's extremely exaggerated body language made Mi Yingying, who had a grimace on her face, laugh.
The other party smiled at first, and finally stood there, as if waiting for her.
After realizing it, Jian Anran took a step forward and trotted forward, "Why is senior sister also in the administration building?"
"I delayed coming here until almost after get off work, and I almost missed it." Jian Anran pretended to be calm and chatted for a while.
According to Ning Beibei's inside information, Mi Yingying's mood has been extremely unstable these days. In the dormitory, she sometimes hides under the quilt and bursts into tears, and sometimes she is as calm as if nothing is wrong.
Regarding what happened yesterday, Jian Anran thought about it for a long time and didn't know how to speak.
"I'll hand over the application to the transfer group." Mi Yingying replied calmly.
"Change group?" After a pause, Jian Anran reacted.
It turned out that what Mi Yingying said on the phone was true. She thought Mi Yingying was just talking out of anger.
I didn't expect her to act so quickly. She came over to submit the application as soon as she finished speaking.
"I can't give up on my studies anyway," Mi Yingying said. "It won't be easy to get along with each other calmly in the future. I still have some sense, so I might as well leave as soon as possible."
Seeing Jian Anran in front of her suddenly lost her voice, Mi Yingying put up a forced smile on her lips.
I don't know what kind of ups and downs her inner emotions have experienced in the past two days.
But judging from Mi Yingying's haggard face, her eye sockets were sunken and swollen like eyes that had just undergone double eyelid surgery, Jian Anran understood immediately -
She has never had a good past two days.
Not sure if it was because of Jian Anran's silence, Mi Yingying asked again: "Have you heard what kind of punishment they plan to give me in the past two days?"
Seeing her hesitation, the other party smiled bitterly and continued: "Should I continue my studies or something? I'm just dreaming."
"Senior sister," Jian Anran lowered her eyes and reached out to hold her, "it will definitely get better."
"I will go and testify for you then."
When they reached the intersection, Mi Yingying planned to go back to the dormitory. She knew that Jian Anran did not live in the school. When they parted ways, Mi Yingying said again: "Thank you for being willing to speak for me."
"But what can the two of us do alone?"
Seeing Mi Yingying's back gradually disappearing, Jian Anran couldn't help but run after her.
"Senior," she patted Mi Yingying's shoulder, "can you tell me what happened before this?"
The other party's eyes widened instantly, and after the pupils zoomed violently, they immediately returned to their normal color. Mi Yingying was dodging her gaze.
"I lost control of my emotions that day. I did something wrong. I..."
"Senior sister knows that's not what I'm asking." Jian Anran said, pulling Mi Yingying to sit on a bench by the roadside.
The two of them sat on the bench like this, watching the bicycles and pedestrians passing by in front of them. They were silent for an unknown amount of time before Mi Yingying finally made up her mind.
"Actually, I feel a little embarrassed and don't know how to face it."
"Remember when we went to Ludao City?"
Mi Yingying suddenly mentioned this, and after thinking about it carefully, Jian Anran only remembered that it was the second time she had been on the hot search in a dramatic way.
She couldn't think of anything except this.
"Teacher Wen was not feeling well at noon that day, so in the end only Song Qi and I went to the site for investigation."
"That's when I confessed to him."
When Jian Anran heard this sentence, she felt that her heart must be extremely strong to hold back her shock and not show it.
"Then what? How does Senior Song Qi answer?" Jian Anran asked tentatively, trying to keep her breath.
Mi Yingying was silent for a while, took a breath, and said without any fluctuation in her tone, "Of course I refused."
She was as calm as if she was talking about other people's affairs.
"He said that he had already postponed his graduation for a year. He couldn't bear any risks this year. He didn't want to be distracted by other things and wanted to concentrate on design."
Thinking back on the atmosphere in the office over the past month, Jian Anran had to admire Mi Yingying's psychological quality.
Song Qi didn't speak much, and there wasn't much difference between before and after. No one noticed any changes in him.
But Mi Yingying's situation is almost the complete opposite. She has always been the one who takes the lead in the office atmosphere group.
During the month when her confession failed, she remained calm, as if nothing had happened, and she continued to talk and laugh as usual.
Seeing Jian Anran's complicated emotions, she hesitated to speak several times and didn't know how to speak. Mi Yingying continued to explain: "We agreed to become friends, so we just treat it as if it never happened.
Bring your personal emotions to work.”
"But that day," Mi Yingying recalled, "he clearly promised to vote for me first, but when it came time to vote at the end, he betrayed me again."
"I was so angry for a moment that I was provoked by Xiangyi a few times, and then I accidentally..."
Patting her back gently, Jian Anran seemed to be able to understand a little bit about the reasons why Mi Yingying lost control that day.
After accumulating emotions for a month, I suppressed them until the end, reaching the upper limit of my capacity, and unavoidable emotional outbursts.
They tried hard to think of many words to enlighten Mi Yingying, but when they came to their senses, the sun had already tilted halfway.
"I've delayed my junior sister for so long." While Jian Anran wasn't paying attention, Mi Yingying quickly reached out and wiped her eyes.
"If there is any new news, please tell me, junior sister."
"Senior sister..." Jian Anran hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Are you going back to the office these days?"
The other party smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, I will bring the files back and do it, and it won't delay the time of submitting the drawings."
"Senior, that's not what I meant..." hurriedly explaining, Jian Anran just looked at the other person and shook her head gently.
"I know that's not what you meant, but they may not."
…
Because it was only a mild concussion, Xiangyi rested for three days before returning to the office.
I don’t know if she experienced this catastrophe, but her mouth finally became quieter.
Although sometimes she starts to talk nonsense and say things that others don't like to hear, but she doesn't know if she has PTSD about this. Every time she keeps talking, she feels bored and ends the topic hastily.
Not long after returning to the office, the deputy prime minister knocked on the door and took Xiangyi out.
When Jian Anran came out of the bathroom, she happened to see Xiang Fuyuan and Xiang Yi standing at the bottom of the stairs from a distance.
The corridor was empty and echoed loudly. Although it could be seen that they were trying their best to lower their voices, Jian Anran could still hear them clearly as soon as they came out.
"You pack your things as soon as possible in the next two days. I will send a car to pick you up right away. I'll rest assured if you move back as soon as possible."
