I was afraid that Mi Cai would not want to take me, so I ran to her car like a sprint, opened the door of the passenger seat, sat in, and hurriedly put on my seat belt, and then felt safe.

Mi Cai looked at me helplessly and said, "Why are you always nervous?"

"You always don't like to pay attention to me, okay? If I don't pester you with a silly face, we can only look at each other from a distance through the heavenly chasm."

"Who wants to see you through the heavenly chasm!"

"You are so uninspiring. Think about that picture, how helpless and tragic..."

"It's still very sad!"

Seeing that Mi Cai was successfully brought into the conversation, I raised my eyebrows and said, "That's why you don't want to look at me through the heavenly chasm, because you will be very sad if you can't see a complete me!"

Mi Cai looked at me from the corner of her eyes, but ignored it, then started the car and followed the traffic on the road in the winter afternoon.

The sun shines through the glass of the car and reflects on us, driving away some of the cold winters and making people feel comfortable.

When Mi Cai drove the car into a lane with simple road conditions, I asked her: "I heard that Chen Jingming will serve as the executive vice president of Suzhou Zhuomei Department Store?"

Mi Cai nodded, confirming the authenticity of the news.

"...It's hard to imagine that your interest groups within Zhuomei will easily support your decision. After all, the Executive Vice President is not an ordinary position!"

Faced with my doubts, Mi Cai said calmly: "This time, they encountered the right opportunity. You should know that Zhuomei's shopping mall in Shanghai will be put into operation soon, and the headquarters will also be moved to Shanghai, so it leaves many opportunities for Suzhou..."

Mi Cai didn't continue to say it, but I vaguely understood some of the reasons and asked: "Will your uncle focus on the management of the Shanghai headquarters in the future, and you are mainly responsible for Suzhou?"

"So that's it."

I once again learned Mi Zhongde's scheming and inscrutating Mi Cai's right step by step, because Zhuomei in Suzhou and Zhuomei in Shanghai headquarters are completely incomparable. Moreover, after being isolated from each other, it is more conducive to Mi Zhongde's cultivation of his own system. Perhaps this motivation is his insistence on starting the "big city" strategy. After all, if he set up a shopping mall in a top-level city like Shanghai, the headquarters will naturally move over. On the contrary, if he develops in a second- and third-tier city, the headquarters will still remain in Suzhou, which will not help him get rid of Mi Cai's constraints.

Of course, if I can think of these things, Mi Cai will definitely think of them. After a moment of silence, I asked her, "Then how are you going to deal with it?"

Mi Cai looked at me and said, "I don't want to talk to you about this."

I was a little bored, but I still asked with shamelessness, saying, "Then you postponed a week before you met Chen Jingming. What is the purpose of Fang Yuan? Can you tell me this?"

"You are not the person involved, why should I tell you?"

Her attitude made me speechless, but I also vaguely understood that it might be because I refused to join Zhuomei many times.

I knew I couldn't find any results, so I finally stopped asking. Micai also speeded up the car, as if I was eager to take me to the destination and get rid of me.

But we happily collaborated on WeChat last night for a song "Eloping", but why did we become so cold today? What a woman's thought... I really can't understand!

Mi Cai sent me back to her residence and left, and then went to Shanghai again. As for whether it was for Weiran or for work, I didn't know much about it.

.........

In the evening, I had dinner with Fang Yuan, Chen Jingming and Zhao Li. This time, Zhao Li will also change jobs with Fang Yuan and others to Zhuomei. After all, at Polytechnic Department Store, he also belongs to the Chen Jingming faction. When Chen Jingming collapsed in Polytechnic, he naturally couldn't stay. Following Chen Jingming and Fang Yuan is a good choice for him. At least when he comes to Zhuomei, his position will not be lower than before.

During the meal, Chen Jingming and Fang Yuan expressed their strong gratitude to me, so naturally they did not drink less wine until they drank high and the dinner ended.

On the way home, I did not choose transportation, but staggered along the streets with the crowds, digesting the accumulated wine in my body.

I was tired of walking, so I sat on the sidewalk and watched the crowd passing by in a daze. I didn't like this night with only myself at all, because I always had so many complaints to say after drinking, but who would like to listen to these complaints now?

So I missed my life in college again. No matter how much wine I drank, there would always be someone to accompany me until the end, listening patiently to my nonsense...

Thinking of those old times, I couldn't help but feel sad, so I lowered my eyebrows and lit a cigarette for myself, regretting that I shouldn't have drunk those wines, because I was so lonely after drinking alone.

I took out the transparent film from the cigarette box and covered it in front of me, and then looked at the starry sky. I could no longer see the city and the woman with long hair hanging down her shoulders, but it attracted the disgusting eyes of passers-by, and avoided me, the drunk man sitting on the side of the road.

They know nothing! They are all a group of ordinary people who are drowned in life, so they will never see the city in the sky, but I will see it, although it is only occasionally!

The night gradually swayed in my mind. In order not to let myself fall on the street, I wanted to sing even without a guitar, I took out my cell phone from my pocket, found the record of the voice conversation with Mi Cai yesterday, and held down the voice key and started singing.

I sang a song "The Past Time" for Mi Cai, singing heart-wrenchingly: "The most beautiful treasure in life is those past times. Although I am so poor that I only have happiness left, wearing old clothes, in the snowy winter of Hailar, there are three sets of cars singing. On a gentle summer night beside the Yimin River, the sound of accordion is floating. Now we have changed our appearance and are busy every day for life. But as long as you think of the past times, your eyes will shine. The most beautiful treasure in life is still those past times. My friends raised beer, and there was only half a sausage on the table..."

After singing, I looked at the message I sent out in a daze. It was because I was immersed in the lyrics. My eyes were a little hot, and I remembered my lovers I loved deeply and my best partners. But just like the lyrics, we have all changed now. Those carefree years together were finally frozen in an untouchable time and space, making me miss it hard at this moment!

A moment later, Mi Cai replied to the message: "It is obviously a song of gentle nostalgia, why are you singing it heart-wrenchingly?"

"To disgust you!" I replied to Mi Cai without any logic.

"It doesn't disgust me, it sounds nice... guess which lyrics I like in it?"

I sorted out the lyrics in my mind again, and regardless of which sentence Mi Cai liked, I sent my favorite ones: "The most beautiful treasure in life is those past times. Although I was so poor that I only had happiness, I was wearing old clothes."

I lit another cigarette, waiting for Mi Cai's reply, but also looked at myself. In the past, I was so poor that I was only happy, but now that I was so poor that I only had sadness, so I was even more eager to return to that past time!
