Mu Ruanruan was already holding back her anger because of the house construction, and now that she saw Jiang He also working here, that feeling of frustration had reached its peak and was about to explode.
Mu Ruanruan didn't go to the underground farm the whole morning and didn't eat lunch. It was her colleagues who thought she was busy and called her up.
The food was left untouched and put aside, and it was already cold.
In the afternoon, she still didn't leave the office.
I don't understand how things turned out like this.
Although she did not go to the house to see it, nor did she talk to Li Gui, the progress of the project did not fall behind at all. Every day, Li Gui would put the progress chart and bill on her desk.
Apart from demolishing her house without her consent, Li Gui did nothing wrong.
The accounts were crystal clear, the prices were very reasonable, some material costs were even lower than the market price, and the project progress was fast.
He was really working for himself sincerely.
Mu Ruanruan shouldn't have been ungrateful, but... that suffocating feeling wouldn't go away, causing her to not want to mention the house at all, nor to see those people. She just wanted the three months to pass quickly.
She had no appetite for dinner and kept trying to reconcile with herself, but found that she couldn't do it.
She doesn't like this kind of controlled life.
"Teacher Mu, you've worked really hard today. You've been busy all day. You must be exhausted." The girl in charge of personnel downstairs came over with a smile and handed her a lunch box. "Here, no matter how busy you are, you have to eat. You can't neglect your health."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Mu Ruanruan had another lunch box in her hand. It was the one she had brought at noon. Her expression suddenly became ugly. "Teacher Mu, you didn't eat. This won't do. How can you not eat? You haven't eaten all day."
Mu Ruanruan said: "It's okay, I'm not hungry, please help me pour out the lunch, and I'll take the dinner back to eat."
The little sister took the box of cold rice and repeatedly told him, "You must eat it."
Mu Ruanruan: "I know, go ahead."
She didn't expect Jiang He to be behind her.
The two of them didn't say anything. Mu Ruanruan quickly went upstairs, walked into her room and closed the door.
Then, I heard the sound of a door opening and closing in the next room.
Throwing the lunch box aside, Mu Ruanruan went to wash up, came back from the shower, sat on the bed, and planned to watch TV.
A few days ago, Li Gui and his colleagues went to buy TV series together. They had a group purchase discount, and there was an extra TV, but no one wanted it, so Mu Ruanruan took it.
It’s a small black and white TV with few programs, but it’s still a good way to kill time.
While watching TV, she felt a little hungry, so she took the meal and ate a few bites. Still having no appetite, she put it aside, lay down at an angle, put two pillows behind her back, randomly changed a channel, and started watching.
A TV series she hadn't watched and didn't know what it was about.
I just watched like this and soon fell asleep.
But I didn't sleep for long before I was woken up by a series of banging sounds.
It sounded like hammering nails, knocking and banging.
It came from the next room, but Mu Ruanruan didn't pay attention.
The TV series had ended and she was very sleepy, so she got up, turned off the TV, and went back to sleep.
After a while, I was woken up again.
At this time, Mu Ruanruan was a little angry. It was already late at night, and she didn't know what Jiang He's dog was doing. Wasn't he sleeping?
But she still suppressed her anger, pulled the quilt over her head, and fell into a deep sleep.
No one will be in a good mood if they are woken up, let alone again and again.
Mu Ruanruan was so angry that she didn't even bother to change her clothes. She flung open the door in her pajamas, rushed to the next door and started knocking.
As she knocked, the anger in her heart grew stronger and stronger. It seemed as if this anger would find a partner, pulling out all the repression that had been buried in her heart.
Just like what happened with that house was also the fault of the neighbor next door.
Not only did they demolish her house, but they also disturbed her sleep. This is intolerable.
"Open the door, open the door."
Mu Ruanruan has always been a self-restrained person, but now she has gone crazy and her mission is knocking on the door.
The door opened, and because she used too much force, the person who opened the door quickly dodged, and the door slammed into the wall next to it, causing the whole building to shake slightly.
She didn't look up at the other person's face, perhaps she was too afraid to look, and just started cursing to herself.
"You're banging and banging in the middle of the night. How can you let me sleep? It's fine if you don't sleep yourself, but you're disturbing others. Don't you know that girls age faster if they don't sleep well?"
Mu Ruanruan spoke in a bad tone. After she finished speaking for a while, it was like a floodgate was opened, and she started to speak out again.
"Asshole, do you have any sense of public morality? If I don't sleep well and it affects my work, you are responsible. If I deduct my salary, you are responsible."
The other party remained silent and stood there.
Mu Ruanruan stood at the door, cursing with her head tilted, not looking at the other person, but at the door handle.
As he spoke, his thoughts and words became distorted, and it sounded a bit like he was making far-fetched arguments.
She began to feel aggrieved.
The person in front of her had clearly run away with Miss Xi and became the son-in-law of the Xi family. Why would a family with such a strong background still come here as a consultant to disturb her mind?
After so many years, she thought she had forgotten him long ago.
When they meet now, she should feel nothing and treat him as a complete stranger, but she still feels a pain in her heart.
Everything that happened that night, him getting into someone else's car and being announced as the son-in-law of the Xi family, and her grandparents passing away at the same time, all these things, plus the later Xiaowu, the Xiaowu who was born with difficulty, all these things, she wanted to attribute all to him.
But she couldn't vent.
I clearly blame him, but I don't dare to say it.
After all these years, if I talk to him about feelings again, it seems as if I can't forget him. Why can't I forget him?
Instead, she wanted to make him think that she had completely forgotten him.
It seems like in this way, she won.
Tonight, various things made her mind a little confused, and various grievances hit her, making her feel uncomfortable.
In the past, she only dared to express this kind of unbridled outburst in front of her third brother.
Now, I can’t care about it.
"Why do you treat me like this? What did I do wrong?" She didn't say anything in the end. After saying this ambiguous sentence, she started crying.
Squatting on the ground, crying sadly.
It was as if he wanted to pour out all the grievances of the past few years at once.
She was tired of squatting, so she sat down against the wall. The door was still not closed, and the light was on, shining through the door frame, forming a square shadow.
She was tired of crying, so she sat down.
Crying is indeed a good way to release emotions, but it is not a solution to the problem.
"I'm sorry." A voice came from the door.
He hasn't left yet.
But Mu Ruanruan didn't want to face him, so she quickly went back to her room and closed the door.
Early the next morning, Li Gui came to apologize to her and explain the matter of the house. He said that he just realized that the demolition of the house was a misunderstanding and not an order from Mu Ruanruan.
