Day 144 be (1)

"Team leader? Team leader!"

"What's wrong with you, coffee coffee! The coffee is about to shake out!"

The blackness receded like the tide, and he immediately felt the heat on his palms.

A bitter aroma seeped into the tip of the nose, along with a nauseating yet sobering smell like a wet tiger's mouth.

A hand stuffed a tissue into his hand.

Fu Xunyan raised his eyes.

The boy was startled for a moment, then immediately withdrew his hand.

"Team leader, please wipe it with a tissue."

The girl who was operating the computer in the distance burst out laughing: "Wow, Xiaolin, you've been here for two months and you still haven't caught our Brother Fu's affectionate gaze?"

Then he straightened his face and exaggeratedly sighed, "Oh, I don't blame you. Even I can't stand the beauty attack of the team leader until today."

"Team Leader, oh team leader, when are you going to debut? I will definitely kidnap the sisters to vote for you."

Debut?

It's so far away...

The man in the suit smiled, thanked the intern, and wiped the coffee stain with a tissue.

"I'm already 27 or 28 years old. I can retire as soon as I debut."

"You don't have to be an idol, you can also be an actor..."

Before the girl finished speaking, a loud shout came from the office.

"Team Leader Fu! The director wants you to come over."

"Yeah, okay, I'll be right there."

Fu Xunyan put down the coffee, but when he looked up he felt a sudden darkness.

Something has been wrong recently. Not only does my vision sometimes go black during the day as if I have anemia, but I also can't sleep well at night. I always feel like I've dreamed about something sad, but I can't remember it when I wake up.

Gotta take some time to check...

"Xiao Fu, you're here. That case last week was handled by your team, right? Who did you hand it off to? It wasn't done well..."

Lin Yongge pricked up his ears to listen to the noise over there—this case was assigned to him by Team Leader Fu, as it was not difficult and suitable for a newcomer to practice, but he seemed to have failed to do it well...

"Don't be nervous, Xiaolin," the girl with the name tag on her chest comforted him. "The director is like that. He always finds fault with everyone's work."

"Why?"

"Emmm, you can understand that he doesn't want others to appear better than him. After all, there have been rumors within the company since last year that our Brother Fu is going to be promoted. Can he bear it if this is said over the director?"

"I can only find fault."

Lin Yongge cooperated with an angry look: "How could this happen?"

The girl from before went to hand in the materials and patted his shoulder on the way: "Well, this is it here."

After being pulled over and scolded by the minister for an hour, Fu Xunyan's thoughts were in turmoil.

He's used to it.

There is nothing wrong with the case itself, the problem is the people.

He was very busy with his work and in fact he had to leave immediately to do his work, but at the same time he couldn't contradict the person in front of him.

There is really no solution...

The more the minister looked at Fu Xunyan, the more he found him eye-catching.

The man's silhouette was leaning against the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window. He was dressed in a suit and tie, his figure as straight as an unbending cedar tree.

The afternoon sun shone in obliquely, gilding him.

The minister will always remember this man's first day at work. Although he had a very good-looking face, his suit looked ill-fitting and of poor quality.

But he has only worked here for two years. The fabric of his high-end custom-made suits has a subtle luster under the light, which is the most direct footnote to his success.

Tsk, he is indeed a pretty boy who relies on his looks.

Lin Yongge couldn't help but turn his head to peek at the team leader who was being criticized in the office. In his eyes, there was no suit, and he was not aware of the success or failure of Team Leader Fu.

He just felt that the sun was too generous, generous to the point of cruelty.

It illuminated the team leader's white shirt and the fine details in the corners of his eyes.

He always frowns in thought.

The sunlight reflected a dazzling spot of light from the watch on his wrist and also revealed the veins on his fair hands.

No decorations, no rings.

I heard from the girls in the group that if they didn’t know that the team leader was like a god and had no desire for love, everyone would think he had some different sexual orientation.

The office was silent, save for the barely audible hum of the air conditioner. Outside, the city surged beneath my feet, its glass curtain walls reflecting a myriad of light. Behind every window might be someone like Lin Yongge.

I admire people like Team Leader Fu.

Young and handsome.

Even more precious is his soul.

This is not false praise, but the truth. Before Lin Yongge entered this group, which is said to be the busiest in the city and even the province, he was prepared to be PUA. After all, other students who had interned in this company were miserable.

But he was lucky, so lucky that he probably exhausted all his life's energy before being assigned to Brother Fu's group.

Although he was busy, Brother Fu would arrange someone to guide him, would cover for his immaturity, and... every little thing made Lin Yongge understand that the young man in front of him was outstanding.

But as the only male in the group, Lin Yongge spent more time with Team Leader Fu and saw other things.

I saw the poor, cold and inhuman life of this handsome team leader who was admired by both male and female colleagues in the company.

It's just that he doesn't seem to feel...

The rustling sound of shuffling papers and typing on keyboards filled the small office. When Wang Li was finally overcome by hunger, she looked up and stretched, only to realize that it was already past nine o'clock.

The lights outside suddenly came on, and the brothers and sisters in the office building next door were still working overtime like them.

"I'm done here, so I'll be leaving get off work first, Team Leader?"

Lin Yongge moved his ears.

"Yeah, the same goes for everyone else. Once the data for that case is compiled, send it to me. You can go back now. Don't delay until eleven or twelve o'clock."

Wang Li happily took it and left without asking Fu Xunyan whether he would leave work - she had already asked about it when she came as she had been working there for more than a year.

Team Leader Fu's normal working time is half past ten.

Of course, that doesn’t mean his work is over. He has to go home and work overtime until one or two o’clock from time to time.

I don't understand why I'm so busy...

But no matter, as long as she can escape.

Standing in the cold wind and watching the hustle and bustle of traffic, Wang Li couldn't help but think that it was a waste of talent for such a beautiful woman like Brother Fu to be held captive in this cold office building.

That face is meant to shine on the dance floor.

"Li, are you planning to go somewhere happy?"

"Shall we go for a drink? And have some dinner, my stomach is burning tonight."

"Okay."

"I'm asking you, just by the way, your group..."

"Are you asking Brother Fu again?" Wang Li put her hands on her hips and looked at the young sisters who had just joined the company.

"Don't even think about it. Brother Fu is the common property of the entire company. Don't even think about it."

Guo Wenjie blinked and said, "Although I do have some ideas, that's not the point."

"ha?"

"The point is actually... does everyone in your company watch the talent show?"

"Draft? What draft?"

Guo Wenjie originally thought that their work was too serious and it was not convenient to mention it, but she didn't expect that her good sister really didn't know, so she quickly took out her mobile phone.

"Ahhh, that's it. Your group is so outrageous. With a handsome guy like Fu Zhiyan—ah, I see. It's because of the name change."

"But haven't you ever thought about searching the entire Internet?"

"What the hell is that?" Wang Li put down her wine glass, dissatisfied with the fact that the light around her was not bright enough, and turned up the brightness of her friend's phone screen.

"That's it."

"New Century Idol" flashed on the screen.

After watching the video, Wang Li felt that her brain no longer belonged to her.

"Is that really my cold and lonely Brother Fu? That's too..."

"It's a bit greasy, isn't it? Of course, Brother Fu himself isn't greasy, but that dance..."

"Don't worry, this must be the entertainment company's fault. Let me show you the stage scene at the back. This was dug up by one of Brother Fu's fans. Who would understand? Brother Fu has such a good face and such talent, but he only gets four or five seconds of screen time per song."

Wang Li and Guo Wenjie quietly watched the live footage of Fu Zhiyan - no, Fu Xunyan - on the stage of "New Century Idol".

"I'll go."

"That's absolutely amazing! I always say that if Team Leader Fu doesn't become an idol, it will be a loss to all of humanity."

The two girls held hands and expressed their feelings excitedly.

But then Wang Li scratched her cheek as she remembered something. "But it's not something bad. Why didn't Brother Fu ever mention it? He never performed at the annual meeting. Last year, he was pushed so hard by his boss that he still didn't give in."

"Because..." Guo Wenjie hesitated for a moment, but finally confessed, "During the competition, some people said bad things about him, saying he was too competitive and so on, which led to a bad reputation. After the game..."

"I don't know if you still remember, didn't Baoyin Entertainment have a little idol dance about five years ago? It was Jiang Han who performed on the first stage with Brother Fu on this show."

"He jumped after the scandal broke out. It is said that his career was ruined."

"But, oh, but there are still some fans on the forum who are trying to overturn the verdict, saying that the scandal was completely fake."

"Brother Fu and him must have had a good relationship at the time, so it must have been a huge blow."

"How could it not be big?" Wang Li sighed, looking at the young and high-spirited face in the video, and then thinking about the current team leader...

Today's team leader is still very handsome, but that kind of handsomeness is not exquisite and dazzling, but rather calm and even a little forbearing.

His face had lost its carefully groomed refinement. Due to his busy work, or perhaps intentionally, he had a light stubble and his eyebrows were quite wild.

I don’t often take care of my hairstyle. When I have nothing to do, I just keep it short and smooth. I only use hairspray to style it when I go out to meet important clients.

Years of staying up late and working overtime have left him with obvious bags under his eyes and dark circles, his skin has become much rougher, and he looks extremely tired.

Wang Li knew what those newly employed young girls were thinking, as she had once felt the same way.

In their eyes, Fu Zhiyan has a very strong sense of brokenness, and the tragic color of waiting for redemption is inconsistent with the self-confidence he forces himself to show when working.

So much so that all the girls and even the boys went crazy.

This also makes Wang Li's eyes that Fu Zhiyan today is more attractive and charming than her idol Fu Xunyan.
