Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Even Huo Zhongshan himself...
Even Huo Zhongshan himself found it difficult to explain his inner feelings at the moment. It was as if his heart was soaked in sour warm water, soft and sour, with a little subtle pain and itchiness.
When the crowd approached, Fang Shimian was still unaware, but his eyes were no longer on the mother in the sun, but on the kitten beside him.
He seemed to be in a trance, with no expression on his face, only his eyes revealed a lot...
Silent, lonely...gentle.
Complex yet so simple that you can see through it at a glance.
The property management executive next to Huo Zhongshan actually wanted to scold the employees when he saw them slacking off. After all, he had vowed just a second ago that their management was very strict.
Just as he was about to speak, he subconsciously glanced at Manager Yang who was following behind him. He saw Manager Yang staring at him exaggeratedly, and he immediately realized that something was wrong.
He closed his mouth in time and observed Huo Zhongshan's attitude with a nervous expression.
"Shi Mian." Huo Zhongshan stood two steps away from Fang Shi Mian.
Manager Yang was stunned.
The property management executive wiped the sweat off his forehead, and was glad that the ability to read people's expressions that he had acquired over the years played a big role at the critical moment.
Fang Shimian looked up and quickly stood up. His previous emotions were gone, and he was a little at a loss. He said in a daze, "Brother Huo."
"How did you..."
The kitten under his feet ran away the second Huo Zhongshan spoke, and while running away, he did not forget to pick up half a piece of bun skin with meat crumbs on it that was on the ground.
Fang Shimian subconsciously reached out to grab it, but failed, so he silently picked up the tissue on the ground.
Huo Zhongshan walked over to Fang Shimian, rubbed his furry head gently, and said in a gentle voice, "Come on, take me to see where you work."
The sunlight was somewhat dazzling. Fang Shimian looked up and saw Huo Zhongshan standing with his back to the light. The man had deep facial features and a faint shadow under his high brow bone, which looked very aggressive.
Fang Shimian lowered his head and clapped his hands, then stood up and threw the tissue into the trash can next to him.
Huo Zhongshan casually picked off the fallen leaves on his shoulders.
Several senior executives looked at each other.
Just after taking two steps out, Fang Shimian suddenly noticed Ming Ke standing beside him, turned around and smiled, "Mr. Ke's vacation is over."
Ming Ke paused, nodded with a smile, and raised his head to glance at the tall and straight back of the big boss inconspicuously. He finally understood why this god had been so difficult to serve in the past few days.
This is petty.
When he was near the door of the monitoring room, Fang Shimian suddenly remembered his colleague who was playing games inside, so he strode forward, walked to the front, opened the door of the monitoring room, trotted in, coughed, and whispered: "Brother Tao, the manager is here."
The young security guard was originally playing games with his legs crossed, but upon hearing this, he put away his phone, stood up from his seat, and winked at Fang Shimian.
Huo Zhongshan and other senior executives walked in. When the security guard saw the scene, he hurriedly said to them, "I went on patrol since you came back. I haven't signed the duty roster yet." After that, he quickly slipped away through another door.
Manager Yang came out and pointed at the people following Huo Zhongshan. He introduced them in a gentle voice, "This is the real estate inspection we will be doing in the future. You should familiarize yourself with it. It will be the inspection at the beginning and end of the month."
Then he glanced at Huo Zhongshan and said with a smile: "Since Xiao Mian knows Mr. Huo, I won't introduce him here."
Fang Shimian nodded and glanced at Huo Zhongshan. He always felt that it was a bit strange that he would appear here. In the past, he had to go to Huo Zhongshan's territory with restraints, but this time, Huo Zhongshan came to the basement he was familiar with.
The new person from the real estate department carefully retrieved surveillance videos of security guards on duty at random time periods, the customer service center, the main gate, and the sides. There were no problems at all, so both parties felt relieved.
The property executives laughed and invited Huo Zhongshan and his group to have dinner at a famous restaurant in Hai City. Ming Ke played a role at this time and properly refused them in a few words. His words were flawless and did not embarrass the other party.
The property management executives thought it was normal that Huo Zhongshan could not be invited, so they invited the real estate agents to inspect the property. It would be bad to refuse them. They did not dare to look at Huo Zhongshan, so they looked up to see what Ming Ke meant. Ming Ke nodded slightly, and they were relieved and agreed.
There was harmony in the monitoring room. The managers achieved their goal and tactfully took everyone else away. Even Ming Ke went outside to wait.
Fang Shimian saw that everyone was leaving one after another, and only Huo Zhongshan was still looking calmly at this not-so-spacious monitoring room.
"Brother Huo, aren't you going with them?" Fang Shimian still held the mouse in his hand and looked up at Huo Zhongshan.
Huo Zhongshan naturally lifted a stool and sat next to Fang Shimian. His eyes fell on the display screen on the operating table and he said nonchalantly, "I don't have anything to do today. I'll stay with you for a while."
Only Ming Ke was standing outside the monitoring room, staring at the schedule for the next two days, which was filled with red-marked minutes, and fell into a period of painful thought.
"On-duty check-in group?"
The man in the dark grey suit sat leisurely in an old office chair, staring at the computer screen with apparent interest.
Fang Shimian then realized that his WeChat was displayed on the screen. Except for Xu Long, who was pinned to the top, the rest were work-related.
"We have to take photos and clock in at work every day, using the real-time watermark on Today Camera." Fang Shimian explained seriously, but did not click on it, just slowly slid the mouse.
Huo Zhongshan nodded thoughtfully, and continued to ask without much concern: "Is the one you pinned the manager?"
"No," Fang Shimian answered very straightforwardly, "He's a colleague, a good buddy who takes good care of me."
Huo Zhongshan smiled softly, "Why do you pin your colleague's message to the top?"
Fang Shimian has a really good temper. He didn’t seem impatient when asked this question. He still smiled and explained, “I don’t like to turn on the sound. His messages are often pushed down in the work group. He told me a few times. Now I have pinned them to the top so that I can see the messages I haven’t replied to.”
"It doesn't sound like a very easy relationship."
Fang Shimian quickly clarified, "It's easy to get along with. Brother Long is very nice, very good."
Huo Zhongshan's eyebrows moved slightly. He took out his cell phone and was about to say something when he heard two beeping sounds from the computer on the operating table.
"Oh, I have to make today's watch. I almost forgot." Fang Shimian murmured.
He clicked on the parking fee receipt sent from the front desk. It was two simple numbers, divided into above-ground and underground. After shrinking the interface, he clicked on another file on the desktop. After Fang Shimian filled the two numbers on another form, he checked it repeatedly at a very slow speed many times.
They were clearly two simple numbers, one three-digit number and one two-digit number, but he checked them at least ten times. While checking, his left index finger kept rubbing on the nail of his thumb. He looked extremely anxious at that moment, which he himself did not even notice.
The third row of the table is the total of the two numbers.
He mechanically used a calculator to add and subtract simple numbers three times, which he could do in one breath. During the process, he kept checking the two numbers and pinching the pads of his other fingers with his thumb, leaving a deep mark.
Huo Zhongshan frowned slightly and said suddenly: "That's right, there's no need to calculate it anymore."
Fang Shimian loosened his grip on the mouse as if he had received an electric shock, then looked at Huo Zhongshan, a little blankly: "Is that right?"
Huo Zhongshan's expression eased, he stood up and walked to Fang Shimian, gently patted the boy on the back, and said softly: "That's right, don't you believe me?"
Fang Shimian calmed down, as if he had come out of that extremely uneasy state. He took a long breath and smiled slightly, "That's right, that's good."
After finishing this form, Fang Shimian moved on to the next one. The other forms were simple, such as the elevator repair record form. If there was no elevator failure today, he only had to add one space down for the date. He didn't need to think too much.
Fang Shimian slowly finished the other forms, copied them, and sent them to the daily form group using WeChat logged into his computer.
After doing all this, Fang Shimian's state was very normal, as if the anxiety just now had never happened. It was not even a deliberate disguise in front of Huo Zhongshan. He himself was completely unaware of his abnormality just now.
"Do we have to do these watches every day?" Huo Zhongshan lowered his eyes and gently placed his fingertips on the boy's snow-white neck.
Fang Shimian shrank his neck and said nonchalantly, "Only the day shift needs to issue this form. The night shift doesn't matter. The day shift... When Brother Long was here, he did it. He said I was new and was slow."
Huo Zhongshan nodded imperceptibly, knowing what was going on. He let go of Fang Shimian and sat back down, looking at the monitor in front of him. He leaned back and said casually, "Turn up the surveillance footage from Building 6."
The mouse and keyboard controlling the display screen were in front of Huo Zhongshan. Fang Shimian dragged his chair a little closer to the area in front of Huo Zhongshan. He clicked the mouse twice and entered the code of the surveillance camera in Building 6 into the database. Soon, several screens popped up.
"Who are you looking at?" Fang Shimian turned to look at Huo Zhongshan, and suddenly realized that the distance between them was very close. If he moved forward a little more, he would touch Huo Zhongshan.
Huo Zhongshan's eyes were solemn, he stood still and looked very calm.
Fang Shimian shrank back suddenly, his ears slowly turning red, thinking that others couldn't see it, and said calmly: "Just click on any one to enlarge it."
In fact, these angles of view could not record anything, as they were all facing the corners of the outer circle of Building 6. However, Huo Zhongshan still held the mouse and clicked on one of them at random, and slowly clicked on the video playback, dragging the progress bar to watch for more than ten seconds.
The video only showed the occasional swaying shadows of trees, and nothing else. Huo Zhongshan exited and closed the page.
Fang Shimian sat for a while before realizing that his hands were sweaty without him noticing. He loosened his hands and looked down for a few seconds.
He stood up slowly, took a piece of paper from the large iron cabinet at the back, went to the water dispenser to wet it carefully, and slowly wiped his palms and each of his fingers.
After the white paper towel was soaked with drinking water, it slid across the handsome boy's slender white fingertips, leaving a few water stains that quickly disappeared.
This action is not uncommon in daily life. Huo Zhongshan himself also has the habit of wiping his hands frequently. I just don’t know why, this action at this moment, when performed by Fang Shimian, is very imaginative.
Fang Shimian rolled up the paper and threw it into the trash can at his feet, and asked, "Brother Huo, do you want some water?"
Huo Zhongshan gave Fang Shimian a deep look and asked in a slightly lower voice than usual, "Where is the water cup?"
Fang Shimian didn't answer. He squatted in front of the water dispenser, opened the storage box below, took out the two water cups on the top, and took out the two below to get water for Huo Zhongshan, "Brother Huo, do you want cold water or warm water?"
"Cold water."
Huo Zhongshan shifted his gaze to look at the monitoring screen in front of the operating table.
Except for the large screen in the middle that changes periodically, the other screens in a circle are all nine-square grids. The screens for elevators, halls, community playgrounds, and roads are all very small and tiring to observe.
Huo Zhongshan only looked at the surveillance footage for a few seconds, and his gaze, as if bewitched, uncontrollably fell on Fang Shimian's hand holding the water cup.
Looking up, there is the boy's clean and beautiful face, big bright eyes, and slightly trembling eyelashes.
He was looking at him.
