Chapter 55 She is my moon
Tian Xin raised her head and looked into Zhang Shuai's eyes. He had regained his composure by now, his eyes were gentle, and there was an emotion in them that Tian Xin couldn't understand.
Why are you saying this?
elder brother?
Although he always called her the boss, he was actually protecting and caring for her like a brother.
Just be my brother!
"Oh!" Tian Xin responded.
"What are you doing this afternoon?" Zhang Shuai asked casually as he got on his motorcycle.
"Tsk, why are you asking again? Didn't I tell you? I'm doing the accounts!" Tian Xin was about to enter the door, but turned back.
"Oh, what about tomorrow?"
"Going to the village committee tomorrow! Are you still going to ask about the day after tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, or should I make a schedule for you?"
speechless!
"No, I mean if you're free someday, I'll teach you how to ride a bike!"
"Oh! Take it easy for now! Just go to work and don't stare at me all day! I can take care of myself!"
"Oh! Then I'm leaving!"
"Ride slower..." Before Tian Xin could finish her words, the motorcycle had already flown over ten meters out of her sight...
I’m really impressed!!!
Tian Xin turned around and walked into the house!
She didn't notice that when she was talking to Zhang Shuai, someone was hiding in the dark and peeking at her.
After three days away, Tian Xin's work piled up like a mountain. As the end of the year approached, all kinds of summaries and materials needed to be sorted out. When she finally crawled out from the pile of documents, five or six days had passed!
"No, Boss, can't you take a day off?" Zhang Shuai called and asked.
"What's up?"
"Um!"
"explain!"
"Let me teach you how to ride a bike!"
here we go again!
Don't bring up anything that is not related to the topic!
Tian Xin was very resistant to riding a bicycle. It seemed like she was born with uncoordinated limbs and had extremely poor balance.
Ever since Zhang Shuai gave her this bicycle, she practiced it privately a few times, but she fell every time. Finally, she got angry and decided to give up!
“Can I not learn this?”
"You don't want to learn?"
"No, I really can't learn it!"
"I'm teaching you, what are you afraid of?"
It’s because even if you teach you, you may not be able to learn it!
Whatever! I'm free anyway! I might as well practice a skill!
"Then... let's do it this weekend!"
"How have you been these past few days?"
"It's fine, nothing happened!"
"Okay, I'll come see you this weekend!"
"good!"
After hanging up the phone, Tian Xin packed up her things and prepared to go back. She had been preparing a wedding gift for Uncle Tian's daughter these days.
The wedding is scheduled for New Year's Day, with only a dozen days left.
The gift she prepared was an embroidery, which required some effort!
There is a road that must be passed on the way from the village committee to home. This road was specially built for the clinker plant and quarry!
Usually, few people walk here. Tian Xin thinks this is closer when going to the village committee, so she takes this road every time!
The road is wide, with dense pine forests on both sides, and the persimmon trees in the field on one side have grown very big!
These days she always felt that someone was following her!
Especially today!
So weird!
Tian Xin looked back every three steps. There was clearly no one around, but she could hear a rustling sound behind her.
It’s the sound of stepping on snow!
It was almost dark and there was no one on the road.
A little scared!
Tian Xin quietly dialed Zhang Shuai's number, and the call was connected with a beep!
"Hey, Boss!"
Tian Xin turned around and looked behind her: "Zhang Shuai, don't hang up, just say whatever you want!"
"What's wrong?"
"I felt like someone was following me, but when I turned around there was no one!"
"Where are you?"
"On the road behind the village committee!"
"I'll be right there...beep, beep!"
"Hey! Don't hang up the phone...!!!"
This guy hangs up the phone so quickly!
What should I do now? I can’t even muster up courage!
run?
Forget it. It’s freezing and snowy. If he falls, the guy will come out and die, right?
Tian Xin walked carefully and looked back, her heart almost jumping out of her chest!
Zhang Shuai, please hurry up!
Normally I'm flying, what happened today?
I'm going to die, why are you so uneasy?
"Woo——" is the sound of a motorcycle.
Zhang Shuai is here?
Very good!
Tian Xin was thinking when she suddenly felt a pain in her neck!
It seems like something hit it!
"ah!"
She screamed subconsciously and fainted from fright!
When she woke up, she was already lying at home!
Zhang Shuai and her mother were by the bedside!
"Why am I back?" Tian Xin asked, searching her neck.
"Zhang Shuai brought you back. How did you fall on the road just now?" asked my mother.
I don’t know!
"I don't know either. After I made the call, I heard the sound of a motorcycle getting closer and closer to me, and suddenly someone hit me. I don't know what happened next!"
"It was hit. What hit it?" asked Zhang Shuai.
"I don't know, I didn't see it clearly!"
"Boss, did you see clearly what the person who hit you looked like?"
"No."
"Are you feeling unwell? Are you missing anything?"
Tian Xin touched her neck.
"My neck just hurts a little. It seems I'm not missing anything!"
"Who could that be? Is this guy sick?" Zhang Shuai couldn't help but curse.
"Don't go out these few days. Tell Uncle Tian and take a few days off."
"That won't do. There are so many things to do. Besides, it's just a short distance. At worst, I can just go through the village instead of taking that road. It's no big deal!"
"No, that won't work. You can't go out alone anymore. How about this, tell me where you're going next time, and I'll pick you up!" said Zhang Shuai.
What? Pick-up? This guy must be taking the wrong medicine!
"Why are you taking the call? How many trips do you have to make in a day? Aren't you going to work?"
Tian Xin refused without even thinking about it. This was too much of an overreaction!
"Don't worry about it, just rest! I'm leaving!"
Zhang Shuai said something to himself, turned around and left!
Hey! Pull it up!
"Zhang Shuai, Zhang Shuai..." Tian Xin put on her shoes and chased after him, but Zhang Shuai was gone!
As soon as he returned to the factory, Zhang Shuai called Lin Zhou!
"How's the investigation going?"
"Still checking, what's wrong?"
"Boss was followed today and even knocked unconscious?"
"What? How is she now? Where is she?"
Lin Zhou had just walked to the parking lot and was about to drive home when he heard that Tian Xin had an accident. He stepped on the accelerator and drove to Xiaowan Village.
"Where are you?"
"I'm at the factory!"
"Come out, village entrance!"
When Zhang Shuai rode over, Lin Zhou was leaning against the bike and making a phone call.
"I want the result by tomorrow at the latest!" Lin Zhou hung up the phone!
"What's going on?" Lin Zhou asked.
"That afternoon, she was walking home from get off work. The distance between the village committee and her home was only about one kilometer at most! She had to take a main road in between. That road was built for the factory, and apart from large trucks, almost no one used it!
"She walks closer there every day. This afternoon, halfway through her walk, she felt someone was following her, so she called me. Before I even got there, she was knocked unconscious! By the time I got there, she was lying on the ground!" said Zhang Shuai.
"How are the people?"
"Nothing? Rest at home!"
"Have you checked? Are you injured?"
"She refused to go to the hospital, saying her neck just hurt. If nothing else, I'll be back! How did your examination go?"
"Give me news tomorrow!" Lin Zhou said.
"Your efficiency is not good enough!" Zhang Shuai complained!
"I'll arrange someone to protect her tomorrow!" Lin Zhou said.
"Come on! You think we're in the city and you're still trying to protect us from the dark."
"What should we do? What happened today can't happen again!"
"Hey, Boss Lin. If you want to protect her, why don't you do it yourself?"
"She... doesn't want to see me!"
"I think you are reluctant to leave your company!"
"Yes and no?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Do you know Tian Xin?"
"Alright... I guess I know more than you do!"
"You don't understand!" Lin Zhou said.
"She's a very ambitious person and takes everything she does extremely seriously. If you ask her to give up her job for such a small matter, do you think she would agree?"
"Do you think today's incident is a trivial matter?" Zhang Shuai exploded!
"I don't think this is a small matter. If she needs me, I can come back anytime. But she doesn't want this. If I force myself to come back and stay by her side, she'll definitely be annoyed and say I'm making a big deal out of nothing!"
This... is actually correct!
"Forget it, just check it out as soon as possible! I've already told the boss that I'll pick her up and drop her off at get off work these few days!"
"Then... I'll have to trouble you!" Lin Zhou glanced at Zhang Shuai!
"What are you talking about? She is my boss, I would look up to her without you telling me! But you, Lin Zhou, I have been wanting to ask you these days, what is going on between you and the boss?" Zhang Shuai sat sideways on the motorcycle and lit a cigarette.
"At the beginning of that day, I thought you were just ordinary friends. Then you said you liked her, but why do I feel that she doesn't like you that much? You still care about her so much, what are you trying to achieve?"
“…”
Alas, Lin Zhou sighed!
"With your conditions, you definitely have no shortage of girlfriends! You're from the countryside, dealing with the villagers and the land all day long. I'm not even talking about her appearance or temperament, but what is it about her that caught your eye? I'm really curious!"
"Is this how you see her? Is this how she is in your eyes?" Lin Zhou asked back.
"Of course not. She's a family member in my eyes. That's different!"
"Relatives? Haha..." Lin Zhou sneered!
"But as a boss, the gap between you two is huge! She doesn't like you, but you still care about her so much and don't let her know. What are you trying to achieve?" Zhang Shuai said.
Yes! What’s the point? Lin Zhou himself doesn’t know!
but……
"She is my moon!" said Lin Zhou.
"Ah? What?" Zhang Shuai didn't understand!
"You wouldn't understand!"
Lin Zhou got in the car. Before leaving, he rolled down the window and shouted to Zhang Shuai, "Protect her well. Call me if you need me! Anytime! I'm here 24 hours a day!"
"The moon!" Zhang Shuai muttered, "What does that mean?"
