Chapter 27 Section five

13 After about three seconds, he sat up again.I thought of Zhou Zhou. I looked at my watch, it was almost eleven o'clock, and I said, "I have to go back quickly." Han Lu also sat up and said, "Can you visit me often in the future? I won't force you." If I shake my head at this time, it would be too cruel to Han Lu, so I nodded lightly in an imperceptible way. "Thank you!" Han Lu's voice seemed to be sincere. Leaving Han Lu's house, I hailed a taxi.In the car, the driver chatted with me: "Dude, I'm drinking a lot, it smells so good."

I've always hated the smell of alcohol, even though I'm a drinker, but this time I have to thank the smell, which masks the other smells.After entering the door, I was uneasy and didn't know how to explain to Zhou Zhou. The living room was pitch black, maybe Zhou Zhou had already fallen asleep, so it would be best, let's spend the night quietly first. I turned on the light, and a figure climbed up from the sofa, which startled me. When I saw Zhou Zhou, he squinted his eyes and asked me, "What time is it? I still know you're back. What did you do?" "I don't want to talk about it anymore. I have dinner with the client, which is the computer company I took over." I tried to pretend to be natural.

Maybe it's because I'm too bad at acting, Zhou Zhou asked, "Did you really go out to dinner with a client?" "Yeah, I've been drinking a lot, it's really f*cking uncomfortable, I have to go to sleep." As I said that, I walked to the bedroom, trying to avoid Zhou Zhou's questioning. "I'm so anxious to sleep, I feel guilty." Zhou Zhou sat cross-legged on the sofa with a look of resentment. "I have nothing to be guilty of. I have to go to work tomorrow morning." I said. "I know I won't come back early when I go to work tomorrow." Zhou Zhou said.

"I came back so late for work too," I said. "Work?" Zhou Zhou said disdainfully, "I'm afraid not." "Why not?" I trembled in my heart. "Haven't you been entangled by Qiao Qiao again?" Zhou Zhou asked. I was relieved, it turned out that Zhou Zhou's suspicion was focused on Qiao Qiao, and he said with a serious face: "I assure Chairman Mao, absolutely not." "But I feel something is wrong." Zhou Zhou said, "Especially my feeling as a woman." What's more, it's time for something to happen, and the interrogation must end as soon as possible.The best way to cure a person for being angry is to be more angry than him so that his anger is gone.

"Don't stop, it's almost done. I'm tired after working outside all day." I pretended to be angry, went into the bedroom, and slammed the door hard. I couldn't fall asleep even when I lay down, so I leaned on the bedside to read a book. After a while, I heard Zhou Zhou knocking on the door. I ignored it and continued reading. Zhou Zhou opened the door and came in, walked to the bed and stopped, I still ignored it, covered my eyes with a book, and saw Zhou Zhou's two legs through the gap under the book. "Let's talk." Zhou Zhou said coldly. "Speak." I didn't put down the book.

"Put the book down." Zhou Zhou took the book between me and her. "About what?" I said lying on the pillow. "Get up and talk." Zhou Zhou looked down at me. "Sorry." I looked up at her and could see two nostrils. "Does this look like a conversation? You are lying down and I am standing. Obviously, the status is not equal. The five principles all say that we must respect each other's sovereign equality." "Then lie down and talk." "I can't even tell when I'm sitting, let alone lying down." "Many businessmen negotiate tens of millions of deals while lying down to rest after taking a shower."

"Do you still want to talk?" Zhou Zhou was a little anxious. "It was you who talked about it." I remained calm. "If you don't want to talk, just pull it down, as if I'm begging you." "What's there to talk about? I came back a little later, and you quarreled with me. Who do you say is responsible?" "You promised to come back before seven o'clock, what time is it now, and you still don't admit that you did something wrong." "I'm such an adult, I can come back as soon as I want." I was tired of being restrained or agreed, "You didn't say that you have to come back at night. What's the matter?"

Zhou Zhou looked at me like a teacher facing a student who made a mistake but refused to admit it. I also stared at her peculiarly, like a child who was wronged and aggrieved. After a while, Zhou Zhou left the room without saying a word, and closed the door behind him.I picked up the book and continued to read it, and read it with gusto. Suddenly, I heard the sound of crying. I put down the book and listened carefully. It came from outside the house, and I listened carefully. It seemed that it was not the sound from the TV, but the sound from crying on the spot without satellite transmission and speaker amplification. I pushed away At the door, Zhou Zhou was sitting on the sofa wiping tears in front of the TV.

I walked over and said, "Why are you crying, what TV series is so touching." I tried to ease the atmosphere. Zhou Zhou ignored me and continued to cry himself, sniffling. I brought a pack of tissues and said, "Stop crying and blowing your nose. If you keep inhaling, your nose will be sucked into your lungs. This is more harmful to your lungs than smoking." Zhou Zhou grabbed the paper and deliberately blew his nose like thunder. The paper was used one after another, piled up on the table like a hill. I said: "Blowing is enough. Our country is already short of wood, so save some paper."

Zhou Zhou still didn't speak, and continued to blow his own way, his nose was rubbed red, and he couldn't blow it out, so he deliberately blew. I said: "Paper is a trivial matter. The big deal is that our country runs out of paper and uses imported ones. But if you blow it like this, you will not be far from rhinitis. The nose, which was originally pretty, is so red when you blow it. What's the matter with the rosacea-like nose?" It can be seen that Zhou Zhou wanted to laugh and then held it back. I decided to continue to use the incongruous tactics, and after a few more rounds, I could make her burst into tears, as if nothing had happened.

I was about to say "If you blow it again, your body will lack water", but Zhou Zhou turned his face and ran into the bathroom.I also followed, she closed the door inside, I stretched out my hand to push it, and heard the sound of the door being slammed, and I couldn't push it any more. Zhou Zhou was crying and blowing his nose inside again. I knocked on the door, but it wouldn't open.I think Zhou Zhou will come out sooner or later, and there is only half a roll of toilet paper in it. If you blow it down at this speed, the roll will be used up in 20 minutes.Thanks to my laziness, I haven't bought any toilet paper since I'm almost running out. If I buy a bag and put it in, it will last me a month. But she didn't come out after 20 minutes, and the sound of crying and blowing her nose is still going on. Could it be that she used the used paper again? In order to prevent her from using it a third time, she must find a way quickly let her out. The light switch in the bathroom is outside, I turned it off, and it was dark inside, Zhou Zhou would come out if he didn’t dare to stay, but after turning it off, Zhou Zhou cried even more because he was afraid inside, but he couldn’t come out alive , I had to turn on the light again. I brought another bag of potato chips, which is Zhou Zhou's favorite food. I stood outside the door, chewing, smacking my mouth, and pretending to burp from time to time, and then continued smacking, and put the plastic wrap The bag was rattling, and seeing that Zhou Zhou hadn’t come out, she threatened, “If I don’t come out, I’ll eat it all.” But it didn’t work, it seemed that even if I pushed myself to death, she might not come out .Thinking of this, I was desperate. I really ate all the leftover potato chips, and my mouth was salty, so I went to drink water. At this time, Zhou Zhou came out. Zhou Zhou didn't say anything, just put on his coat and changed out his slippers. I asked, "Why go?" Zhou Zhou said blankly, "Go out for a stroll." I said: "It's late at night, it's almost twelve o'clock, why are you strolling, what should I do if something happens?" Zhou Zhou refused to listen and insisted on leaving. I don't stop it either.I'm not used to this problem, and when I get a little emotional, I run away from home, trying to make men subdue me, but I swear I won't bow my head.The more a woman gets used to her, the more endless, so I want Zhou Zhou to know that I won't bow to her just because she did something I didn't want her to do.Love is not a political struggle, and I can't rely on this kind of tactics to get the upper hand. What annoys me the most is what to do, not to put the problem on the table to solve it, and to go around it.Maybe Zhou Zhou didn't think so, but I thought it was complicated. When Zhou Zhou went out, I pretended not to care, ignored it, ran into the bathroom to brush my teeth, and told Zhou Zhou indirectly with ulterior motives: "Don't think that you will get my attention if you go out at night, I don't care. It's time for me to go to bed, brush my teeth and I'm ready for bed." In fact, I have been observing Zhou Zhou's every move through the reflection of the mirror in the bathroom. When Zhou Zhou left, he didn't glance at me, which shows that he is determined.The door was opened and closed, and Zhou Zhou's figure disappeared outside the door.I listened to the sound of Zhou Zhou going downstairs, floor by floor, and finally Wan Lai was silent. I glanced at my watch, it was 11:50, if Zhou Zhou didn't come back in 30 minutes, I would call her.By this time, a compromise had to be made. Time passed by minute by minute, and I counted the seconds like the clock, watching TV to attract my attention, but I was sitting on pins and needles. It was 12:20, and Zhou Zhou hadn't come back yet. I couldn't sit still anymore. I walked up and down the room with a cigarette in my mouth. After staying for so long, I realized that it was seven steps from one end of the living room to the other. From that end to this end, there are still seven steps. I called Zhou Zhou's phone and turned it off.Zhou Zhou said to take a walk, where can I go for a walk, Beijing is so big, I go looking for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, I can only wait for her to come back.At this moment, I was very eager to hear Zhou Zhou's footsteps going upstairs. Waiting is futile.Rather than waiting for something to happen that you don't know if it will happen, it's better to go to sleep, maybe it will happen naturally during sleep.I hope that when I open my eyes in the morning, I can see Zhou Zhou and the money in the bank card. 14 The next morning, I opened my eyes, but I didn't see Zhou Zhou, nor did I see an extra penny on the bank card. I called Zhou Zhou first, but the phone was still turned off.Then I called the girl from the computer company and asked her if the money could still be paid. The design of the picture book was finished immediately, and it could be printed at any time.She said she was sorry, the chief financial officer returned to Taiwan yesterday, and the Chinese New Year was coming soon, so the company allowed him to go back to visit relatives first.I asked when he would come back, and she said he would come back on the eighth day of the eighth day, the day the company officially started work.I said that the workers in the printing factory will go home for the New Year in a few days, and they don’t go to work until after the first lunar month. If they start printing at that time, it will exceed the deadline stipulated in the contract, and they must start printing before the day after tomorrow.She said, let’s print it now, and I said that the money for paper and printing has not been paid to me yet, so what should I get for printing.She said I'm really sorry, the chief financial officer has already boarded the plane, and the accountant won't send the money without his signature, or you should pay it yourself first, and you signed the contract anyway, the company won't cheat. Immediately ask him to sign and give you the money. It seems that this is the only way to do it. Although it is a bit risky, it is better than waiting for the printing factory to go to work before printing, and the other party will seize the handle to claim compensation after the stipulated time limit.I have also learned from this experience. Next time I sign a contract, I must add a clause. If one party delays the delivery due to the failure of the advance payment, the other party will be responsible for it. When I arrived at the company, I called Zhou Zhou every half hour, and finally got through before noon. "How did it turn on?" I asked. "Open whenever you want." Zhou Zhou said. "Where did you go last night?" I asked again. "Going back to my own home." Zhou Zhou said, "What's the matter with calling, tell me quickly, I still have to work." "I'll find you after get off work." I said. "No, I'll have dinner with my client today too," Zhou Zhou said. "I can wait for you." I said. "I don't know how long it will take to eat." Zhou Zhou said, "If it's okay, I'll hang up." "I'll wait for what time." I said. "As you wish." Zhou Zhou hung up the phone. In the afternoon, I borrowed the car assigned to Ma Jie by the company. I explained that tomorrow is the weekend and you don’t need to see clients, so let me drive it. Anyway, the car is already insured. In order to meet Zhou Zhou earlier, I left the company before the end of get off work hours and ran through a few red lights on the road. Made several violations. When I arrived downstairs at Zhou Zhou's company, I called her and wanted to surprise her, but Zhou Zhou said: "I have left the company." I looked at my watch and said, "It's not time for you to get off work yet." "It's fine today, you can leave early." Zhou Zhou said. "Where did you go yesterday? I waited for you all night." I said. "I didn't go anywhere, I just stood downstairs for a while and saw that you didn't come down to find me, so I went home." Zhou Zhou said coldly. "Where are you now, I'll go find you." I said. "At my house, I might go somewhere in a while. I told you that I will have dinner with a client tonight." Zhou Zhou said. "What client?" I asked. "You should know." Zhou Zhou hung up the phone. I drove the car downstairs to Zhou Zhou's house.I've passed by here many times before, but never went up.Zhou Zhou had already told me to meet her parents, but I said not to see her, because I was scared when I saw adults.Zhou Zhoufei told me to go up, so that my parents would know who their daughter was dating.I said, but I'm not very interested in who the person I'm in love with comes from. If your parents want to see it, tell them to open the window and poke their head out. I can just lift my head. If you can't see clearly, Just let them prepare a telescope, even if they are not satisfied, don't throw things down. I was about to call Zhou Zhou when I saw a familiar car parked downstairs through the mirror. It was Qiao Yu's Accord.He pulled out his cell phone. I must rush to call Zhou Zhou before him. I was about to dial, but found that the phone was not turned on. After turning it on, I saw Zhou Zhou had gone downstairs and got into Qiao Yu's car. Before, I rented a Beverly and took Zhou Zhou to climb mountains. Zhou Zhou leaned on my right shoulder. I pushed her away and said that changing gears was in the way.Now Zhou Zhou is sitting in Qiao Yu's automatic transmission car, Qiao Yu doesn't need to change gears, Zhou Zhou can rely on whatever he wants.Thinking of this, I could only curse in my heart: Fuck it! Qiao Yu turned the car around on the spot, then opened the car door, changed places with Zhou Zhou, and Zhou Zhou drove.Zhou Zhou does not have a driver's license, and Qiao Yu can serve as a good teacher and helpful friend.Fortunately, unlike riding a bicycle, driving does not require hands-on instruction. Seeing that I was burning with anger, I punched the reflector with a fist, and with a bang, the reflector fell to the ground.Thinking about returning the car to Ma Jie, he opened the door again, picked up the reflector, and threw it on the back seat. Seeing a can of beer on the back seat, he opened the pull tab, drank it, and then started the car. Turning onto the road, just a few steps away, he was stopped by the traffic police at an intersection. I got out of the car and walked in front of the traffic policeman, who gave me a very standard salute.I said in my heart: "Let's be free from courtesy." "Hi, please show your driver's license." Although these words seem amiable, they still have a deterrent effect when they are spoken from the mouth of a man in uniform. I hand over my driver's license. "Do you know why you were stopped?" the traffic policeman asked. "I don't know." I didn't violate the rules. "What happened to your car?" the traffic policeman asked. "What's wrong with the company's car?" I was confident, I looked like a car thief. "Where's the reflector?" The traffic policeman pointed to the left side of the car and said. "In the back seat." I opened the car door to let him see. "Is that where the reflectors are installed?" the traffic policeman said, "Your car has potential safety hazards, and you are not allowed to go on the road." "I didn't know there was such a rule," I explained. "Everyone who gets caught says that. Why did you go so early, and your driver's license will be suspended for three days!" The traffic police issued a ticket. "I really don't know." I leaned closer and said, "Don't deduct it, I will definitely change it in the future!" The traffic policeman sniffed and asked, "Have you been drinking?" "No, no, no!" I denied it. The traffic police took out the breathalyzer: "Exhale." I sighed lightly. "Strength, breathe out." The traffic policeman demanded. I held my breath and pretended to be very hard.The traffic policeman slapped me on the back, didn't hold back his breath, and sprayed it out. "At least one glass of beer." The traffic policeman said, looking at the tester.I didn't expect this thing to be really accurate. When pouring a glass and a half of a can of beer, the larger glass is only one glass. I said, "I didn't drink it, I just wiped my mouth with alcohol for disinfection. Although the fight against SARS has been won, we should not relax our vigilance against infectious diseases." "Don't explain, once the light of the tester turns on, it proves that you have drunk. It is unsafe to drive and drunk driving." The traffic policeman wrote the ticket and tore it off for me. "The purpose of detaining your driver's license is to keep your memory long and prevent you from committing another crime. " "Is it okay if you don't buckle it?" I begged. "No!" The traffic policeman's tone was beyond doubt. I threw away the driver's license and car keys: "Here you are, not me." The traffic policeman said: "I've seen you like this a lot, you just want a Jetta, and I don't want the Accord just now." He pointed at the tree by the side of the road, "That car was also impounded for driving without a license. .” I saw that it was Qiao Yu's Accord, so I went up and kicked it, making a dent, and the paint fell off. The traffic policeman grabbed me and said, "Okay, don't leave, wait until the owner of the car comes to solve it." Then he took out his mobile phone and made a call, "Come here, the car was kicked." After a while, Zhou Zhou and Qiao Yu came. "That's him." The traffic policeman pointed at me and said, "If I hadn't been watching, he would have run away." Zhou Zhou went to the car and took a look, negotiated with Qiao Yu, and then said to the traffic police: "Let him go, I will fix the car myself." "What did you say?" the traffic policeman asked, "Fix it yourself?" "Well, let him go." Zhou Zhou said. "Why did you encounter evil things today? It's not about an earthquake." The traffic policeman shook his head and returned to the traffic post at the intersection. I glanced at Zhou Zhou and staggered away.She didn't ask me to pay compensation. I don't know if she declared my death sentence or said that I still have hope. Damn, this was the result of what was originally planned to be a very beautiful night.I took out my phone and looked in the phone book to see who I could contact to relieve my boredom.At this time, Han Lu's name appeared in his eyes. "What are you doing?" I asked on the phone. "I'm preparing to make dumplings for the child," Han Lu said. "What stuffing?" "Chives and eggs." Han Lu said, "What are you doing?" "I have nothing to do, I can make a face-to-face meeting with you."
