On the way there, it was drizzling outside the taxi window, as if reflecting my complicated mood at this time. What is the relationship between Han Yue and me along the way, and how does her mind view our relationship?

In the taxi, the driver happened to play Zhou Chuanxiong's "The Unclosed Window" and made me fall into deeper memories. From when I first joined Qichen, I bumped into her on the first day of work, and she turned out to be my boss at that time; to when I was in a nightclub, I blocked the glass bottle for her, and there was a scar on the back of my neck; she asked me to set off fireworks on the artificial lake, and we got to know each other more deeply; and she was sprained on my back and sent her home, and we fought wits and courage with those hooligans in the parking lot... Countless pictures related to her came to my mind, like a movie that interpreted our story.

"I heard the cold wind disturbing the fall of leaves"

"In the lonely and dark alleys that often live in"

"I heard that loneliness was sobbing in the chest of love in the enduring night."

"I'm a window with my heart locked."

"Let the cold wind come and go and can't be locked up"

“The weather and frost that cannot be repaired in these years”

"It seems particularly desolate"

"When the wind comes, it stirs up the sadness of the past, like a cheap carnival throughout the season"

"Let's start from scratch and be like a dream"

Han Yue, she is like the window that cannot be closed in my heart, allowing the wind about love to blow, but all this is like a dream, and I can't tell the truth and the false, making me dare not reach out to touch it. I have never dared to think about her emotionally because there is too big gap in reality. Whether it is her family background or material conditions, I am much worse than her. It is an almost insurmountable gap...

The car quickly drove to the entrance of the community where Han Yue lived. After the driver left, I walked to the entrance of the community. The security guard asked me who I was looking for, but I was speechless. If I said I wanted to talk to Han Yue, I had to ask her to contact the security guard to confirm my identity before I could get in.

"Hey, what are you asking for? Who are you looking for?"

Seeing that I was not talking, the security guard asked again. I was stunned for a moment in a daze and replied, "No need, it's too late now, I won't bother her."

He waved his hand and said impatiently: "It's so interesting. If you don't look for someone, don't stand at the door and don't interfere with my work."

The security guard had a bigger temper than me, but I was too lazy to say anything. I turned around and went to the other side of the community entrance, lit a cigarette, and ignited this inexplicable emotion. The shadows under the street lights were full of loneliness and loneliness.

When I was smoking half a cigarette, I took out my phone and opened the chat interface with Han Yue. After hesitating for a long time, I finally typed a sentence on the screen: "I heard that you, as an executive of Dinghui Group, have you taken over the latest project of Z Group, right?"

After a while, Han Yue replied: "Yes, how did you know?"

I threw away the cigarette butts, typed quickly with both hands and replied: "Dinghui, me of Xingchen International, will we become competitors in the future?"

"Cheng Ting, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly figured out something."

After putting away my phone, I walked to the side of the road and waited for the passing taxi. This night, I finally controlled my impulse and did not go to Han Yue. What can I say when I met? Are I grateful for her helping me so much, or did I feel sorry to her with guilt, sorry, I was implicating her because I did something I didn’t like. Besides, ask clearly what relationship we have, and whether after experiencing stories together, we all developed a feeling of not being able to completely release each other...

This night, after understanding, I warned myself: "When everything has formed a seed, you still have time to prevent it from taking root and sprouting."

......

A week later.

Since we Group C last time I won the big order from Group z, we had the opportunity to be promoted to Group B, but at a management meeting this morning, we retained the position of Group C again because our group only received one order this month, which is precisely the smallest order assigned.

Fang Kai, who came back from the meeting, sat down on his work station dejectedly, leaned against the chair and stared at the computer screen in a daze. Yu Yao, Lin Ji and I looked at each other, and then slowly walked towards Fang Kai.

"Boss, are you okay?" Yu Yao asked in a tentative tone.

Fang Kai turned around and looked at us, squeezed out a smile and said, "What are you doing? Don't you have to work?"

Lin Ji drooped his face and muttered in a low voice: "Just one, I've finished it long ago..." I elbowed him with my elbow. This kid was too illiterate.

Fang Kai nodded, smiled bitterly, and said, "A good news and a bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Linji said: "It's all like this, so we can guess a little bit, so listen to bad news first, and it's not that bad."

"Okay, then I'll just say it. I've held a meeting this morning. I won't talk about the content of the process. Let's talk about the results. After management's consideration, next month, if our performance is still so bad, then we will remove Group C, meaning that if our performance is still so bad within next month, then we will be unemployed."

After Fang Kai said that, Yu Yao's face changed and she said in surprise: "Ah! It's so serious..." But when the voice behind her was getting smaller and smaller, she paused for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Then, what about the good news?"

Fang Kai looked at the time on his watch and replied: "I'll treat everyone to dinner tonight. Our group hasn't had a dinner together for a long time."

I walked two steps closer and took his words: "You can eat, but you can't pay for the bill alone. Let's share it together."

I glanced at Yu Yao and Lin Ji, both of them nodded in agreement, and finally looked at Fang Kai in unison. He took a breath and finally nodded, and said with a choked voice: "It's great to have you, but it's a pity that you didn't follow a good boss."

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's such a touching scene. Unfortunately, I won't see it next month." The team leader of Group B passed by our office and saw this scene, saying to us in a contemptuous tone.

Lin Ji retorted: "What awesome, if you are awesome enough, you won't be just a team leader in Group B."

"That's better than you, well, that's just a little bit, enough." He said, pinching his nails and gestured.

I chuckled and said, "One month left, it's not certain who will kill me."

"Okay, then wait and see." After saying that, he left our office, but the condition of several of us was indeed affected by him. Several of us returned to our workstations separately and did not continue chatting.

......

Half a month passed, August quietly arrived, and half a year passed in a blink of an eye. In this half month, I had not contacted Han Yue, nor did she look for me, but I heard that she has been busy participating in various commercial activities recently and attended many high-end meetings. This is normal, because she has begun to take over the behemoth of "Dinghui". Maybe she has no time to pay attention to those things about love. Although I didn't explain it to her that night, I believe that with Han Yue's emotional intelligence and IQ, it is not difficult to guess what I originally wanted to say.

The new month has come, which also determines whether the people in our group C will be unemployed, so we made a decision: everyone in the group mobilizes their own resources to find business, because some orders in the company are basically given to Group A and Group B first. Finally, the screening of the orders given to us is at most one order, and it is a small order, or even a mess. Out of helplessness, these days, we are either negotiating business outside or on the way to discuss business.
