Chapter 45 Meeting Xiao Nan on the Road
The SKB Building at night is still so intimidating, with people coming and going all dressed in suits and working elites.
Li Jiayun was drunk. She had just come from a client reception and two bottles of red wine had made her completely drunk.
She refused her colleagues' offer to see her off and staggered along the side of the road alone.
Summer nights should be charming, just like the tall and straight trees in front of us, which should be pleasant and comfortable.
But at this moment, she felt that everything was gloomy: the dark night, the lonely streets, and the empty heart.
Just ten minutes ago, she received a layoff letter. The letter was very polite to the old employees and gave them sufficient compensation, but she just felt cold, cold from the inside out.
Yue Group, how long has she been here? Eight years!
It has been eight years since graduation!
The best years of my life were spent here struggling, and the proudest edges were smoothed out here.
Due to some economic reasons, the group had to accept an investigation by the relevant departments, so their subsidiary was closed...
Li Jiayun's mouth was full of bitterness, the red wine began to take effect, and her body was wrapped in a black formal dress, as if to give her the last bit of dignity.
Eight years after graduation, she saw her parents' satisfaction, the envy of her peers, her own hard work... one scene after another flashed before her eyes. She thought about leaving and wondered if she had chosen the wrong industry, but she never thought that she would leave in this way.
A proud science and engineering girl, working in the financial industry, put aside her pride and chatted with clients. She could have been the client, but ended up being the contractor...
As I walked and thought, I couldn't help but burst into tears, and I couldn't stop crying.
Maybe she was really drunk, Li Jiayun looked up at the sky and cried all the way.
Xiao Nan felt very unlucky. He had just skipped a class and ran into such a woman as soon as he went out.
He didn't mean to bump into her, but who would have thought that the moment he touched her, she would sit on the ground and not get up.
Xiao Nan felt a little confused. He thought the other party was just trying to scam him, but nothing happened. But what was this? Was he going to give up just because of this? Was there really something wrong?
Thinking of this, Xiao Nan squatted down and wanted to help her.
As soon as he touched Li Jiayun's arm, Li Jiayun seemed to have found a life-saving piece of driftwood, and hugged his legs and refused to let go.
"Hey..." Xiao Nan was startled and tried to break free.
The woman staggered after being pulled by him, but still refused to let go. Not only that, she began to cry with her eyes closed, and she reeked of alcohol.
Xiao Nan's head turned around unconsciously, and his forehead was covered with sweat. He didn't do anything!
What's going on? How will I explain this if someone sees me?!
I can only say that fate is wonderful.
Yun Mo accepted the Huo family's invitation, had a pleasant dinner, and then took a leisurely stroll on the street.
Just as I was turning a corner, I suddenly felt a strong force of cause and effect.
Yun Mo paused and looked up.
Xiao Nan was at a loss as to what to do. He looked around anxiously and met Yun Mo's gaze.
"Sister! Yunmo!"
Xiao Nan roared, his eyes lit up instantly. He no longer cared about the crying woman and stood up.
"Xiao Nan!" Yun Mo was also surprised, "How did you get here?"
The name Xiao Nan, to Yu Yunmo, was a dull pain in the ass.
There was once a popular saying on Blue Star, "My sister is Yunmo". If anyone has heard of "My father is Li Gang", they will definitely think that these two idiots know each other.
Xiao Nan smiled bitterly at the woman who was still pulling at his trouser legs, "Can you help me get her away first?"
"What's wrong? Are you bullying others?"
As Yun Mo spoke, she walked forward and pressed lightly on the woman's wrist. Li Jiayun's fingers unconsciously loosened.
She raised her red and swollen eyes, seeming a little confused about what was happening.
"Get up and have something to drink," Xiao Nan hid behind Yun Mo and said to the woman.
The three of them walked in silence for a while and found a cold drink shop on the side of the road.
Yun Mo didn't know where she tapped on Li Jiayun's body, but she felt her mind clear up a bit. However, the depression in her heart still lingered.
"Have a drink," Yun Mo pushed the beautiful glass in front of her.
Li Jiayun was a little embarrassed. She looked away, took it and took a sip.
The sweet and sour taste made her eyes misty again.
"Thank you," Li Jiayun's voice was a little hoarse, "I'll treat you this meal."
"Are you rich?" Yun Mo looked up at her. It was obvious that this girl was unlucky and had troubles at work.
"Well, there's still some money," Li Jiayun said with a wry smile. The company's compensation was quite a lot, enough to cover her expenses for several months.
"No reward without merit," Yun Mo raised her eyebrows, remembering that the three hexagrams for today had not been used up. She blinked and looked at Li Jiayun seriously.
"What...what happened?" Li Jiayun was a little confused.
"Do you tell fortunes?" Yun Mo asked.
"What about me?" Li Jiayun felt that she might have drunk too much and her reaction was a little slow. She seemed to not understand what was said.
"You and I are destined to meet. I will give you a divination. Each question will cost 800 star coins. Do you want to ask?" Yun Mo said lightly.
Li Jiayun curled the corners of her lips. Eight hundred star coins is enough.
But she was in a bad mood anyway. When a woman is in a bad mood, she tends to be careless. Instead of going to the bar to spend money, it doesn't matter if I give it to her.
Li Jiayun readily transferred 800 yuan to Yun Mo.
Yun Mo took out a pen and paper from her bag and pushed it in front of Li Jiayun. "Think about the question you want to ask and write down something."
Li Jiayun curled her lips, this game is quite interesting.
She looked at the juice in front of her, slowly wrote the word "满", and pushed it over. Maybe she didn't use enough force, so the last stroke was a little floating.
"Ask about career," Li Jiayun looked out the door, a little distracted.
"You lost your job, right?" Yun Mo said with certainty.
"Really? You can see that?"
Li Jiayun laughed at herself and held her chin with her hands. It seemed that her distraught look was too obvious and made passers-by laugh at her.
Yunmo picked up the paper on the table, half-closing her eyes as she spoke slowly and thoughtfully, "The 'mango' in 'mango' contains the character 'wang' (meaning 'death'), which means loss or destruction. The character 'guo' (fruit) is split into two parts, with 'field' on top and 'wood' on the bottom, like 'wood overcoming field', representing hard work. It's September now, and the mangoes should have already ripened, so the matter you're asking about must be out of season."
"But don't worry, you will have a new job within a month," Yun Mo's next sentence made Li Jiayun raise her head.
"Yeah?"
Li Jiayun didn't quite believe it, but this game was quite interesting. She grabbed the paper, wrote "wait" again, and pushed it over.
