Chapter 32 Bad Premonition
Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and although it is no longer hot in summer, I have never felt the coolness of autumn in Guangzhou. I walked downstairs and walked through a street in the bustling village of the city. Finally, I chose a barbecue restaurant to help us have dinner. The barbecue and beer are in line with the solar terms of this season.
"How do you think this place is?" Yang Fan chewed peanuts in his mouth, tearing open a can of beer and said to me.
I also tore open a can of beer, took a sip and replied, "It's okay, the city village has the benefits of the city village. Besides, the transportation here is quite convenient, and overall it's pretty good."
"Because you work in that tall building environment during the day and immerse yourself in the luxury of prosperous areas for a long time, you sometimes feel like you are a rich person. In contrast, urban villages are more scented and fireworks, so this is why I chose to live in a urban village." Yang Fan said with a serious expression on his face.
I raised the beer can in my hand and touched it at his beer can, and said contemptuously: "Come on, you! I always make up these fancy things. To put it bluntly, it's not because I don't have money."
"Hey! Can't you just stop exposing me? Let me pretend to die."
"Why are you talking so much? Didn't you ask me to drink a few drinks with you? You're going to drink it."
......
The next day, I got up as usual to go to work. Yang Fan was not bad. He got up early this morning and went to apply for a resume. He also said that there would be an interview at 10 o'clock in the morning. I felt much more at ease when seeing Yang Fan in this state. As a man, he still had to be motivated. After I encouraged him, I left my residence to go to work.
When I went to the company, I found that everyone in our department was in a carnival, and everyone was holding luxurious gifts in their hands. When they looked at the gifts in their hands, they seemed to be looking at babies.
I walked to my seat, put my backpack on the chair, and asked Sun Bowen, who was smiling silly, in confusion: "What are you doing? Everyone is laughing stupidly. Where do you get so many gifts? Today is not November 11th."
Sun Bowen pouted, looked in the direction of my desk, and said, "Here, you have it too."
I turned around and looked at my desk in the direction he said, and there was a gift bag on it. This made me even more confused, so I picked up the bag and carried it in front of him, and continued to ask, "Where did this thing come from?"
"Hey! You may not believe me when I say it. Everyone can't let go of the gift. The gift was given to us by Han Yaoxian early in the morning..." He stared at the gift box with joy and added: "Oh, this happiness is so sudden! Hey, Cheng Ting, please open it and see what gift you received?"
"Check your hammer and work." I gave Sun Bowen a blank look, then after saying that, I pulled out the chair and sat down, and started the work of the day.
......
As I was about to get off work and prepare for lunch, I looked at the gift bag on the table again, thought for a while, and decided to open it. What I didn't expect was that what Han Fairy gave me was a zippo lighter. I picked it up and looked it carefully, and played with it for a while before I found that there were two English letters "ct" printed under the lighter, which was probably the abbreviation of my name.
I smiled, put away the lighter, and then got up and went to Han Yuexian's office.
"What's wrong?" As soon as I came into the office, Han Yaojing didn't know who it was. He focused on the documents on her desk and asked without raising his head.
"No, it's okay, that... I just want to ask, where did you and Wen Shuya go yesterday?" I grinned, scratched my hair and sat down in the chair in front of her.
The fairy Han raised his head and saw that it was me. He responded with a smile and asked, "How about it, do you still like the gift I gave you?"
"I like it, of course I like it, but what does this have to do with the question I just asked you?"
"Yes, I went to buy things with Xiaoya yesterday... Oh, when it comes to this, I shouldn't have let you go back yesterday. You don't know how we brought so many things back later. Xiaoya's car was too small to hold it, so she had to ask another car to help us transport the things back."
I stared at her with wide eyes and said in surprise: "Did you buy a mall? You have to ask a car to transport the things back. How much does it cost?"
She turned the chair and replied indifferently: "Not much, I only spent about 100,000 yuan. Xiaoya should be tens of thousands, well... It is normal for me to spend more as a sister."
The words "not much" and "just" that Han Yaojing almost made my nose bleeding... You can't imagine the happiness of rich people!
"Do you have anything else to do later?" She raised her hand and looked at the time, and said, "I'm going to get off work. If there's nothing else, let's go to have a meal together."
"No, no, I'm a little dizzy, you go and eat first." After that, I left Han Yaoyin's office in shame.
After returning to the work station, I thought about it and finally felt that it was too unreasonable for them to do this. No! I can't let them continue to spendthrift like this. When I have time another day, I have to chat with them. If I have to go for a spendthrift, I have to take me with me!
......
When I came back from get off work in the evening, the room was empty. It seemed that Yang Fan was much worse than me and always worked overtime. After dinner, I took out a few bottles of beer and a bag of nuts from the refrigerator, and then sat on the sofa to enjoy the free time after get off work. I simply turned on the TV and read the news to pass the time.
"The 22nd Typhoon of this year, 'Haipa' has officially been generated and will land in the north of the x island at 3 am tonight. When logging in, the wind speed near the center reached level 15, the wind speed was 48 meters per second, and the minimum pressure of the center was 950 hPa. According to the current typhoon's journey, 'Haipa' will land directly in City D. There will be heavy rain and heavy rain in nearby City M and H. This will be the strongest typhoon in City D. In recent years, the strongest typhoon has been recorded in City D...."
The reporter from the meteorological observatory said something later. I hadn't heard it anymore. At this time, the first thing I thought of was Su Jing in City D. What made me even more worried was that she still didn't reply to me when I sent her two days ago... I suddenly drank the last sip of wine in the bottle, then picked up my phone and called Su Jing, but it was unable to connect and didn't answer three times in a row.
At this moment, I was upset and lit a cigarette, trying to calm myself down. Suddenly, a name came into my mind... Xu Mengjun, yes! The only person who knows what Su Jing is doing is her. When I think of this, I immediately called Xu Mengjun.
"Are Su Jing with you?" I asked quickly as soon as the phone was answered.
As a result, Xu Mengjun said in the same anxious tone as me: "Oh, you call me. I was just about to find you. Su Jing hasn't returned to school yet. I'm almost in a hurry and thought she was going to find you."
Xu Mengjun's words were like a bolt from the blue, making my scalp numb. It has been a week since Su Jing told me that she wanted to accompany her best friend to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival and relax. Not only did she not reply to the news, but she couldn't get through the phone call... I felt a bad premonition in my heart.
"Hey, Cheng Ting, have you listened to me?"
Xu Mengjun's words pulled me back from my loss. I took a deep breath, calmed down my emotions, and replied: "Su Jing was not with me. She did not reply whether it was the message or the phone number... In this way, you can help me find a few classmates to ask if anyone has seen Su Jing recently. I will book tickets online and go back to D City."
"Okay...No, Cheng Ting, haven't you read the news? The typhoon will land on the front line at 3 a.m. tonight. Now the weather has changed in the city D and it has started to blow. Do you know how dangerous it is when you come here now?" Xu Mengjun seemed to be intentionally walking out, and I could clearly hear the howling wind on the other end of the phone.
I was silent for a while, and finally made up my mind to reply: "It is because of the danger that I have to go. The most urgent thing is to find Su Jing before the typhoon comes... I won't say it anymore, I really can't book a ticket if it's a little later."
