Chapter 557 The Fireworks Are So Beautiful (The Finale)
Chapter 557 The fireworks are so beautiful (the finale)
“Everyone has worked hard.”
“Sister Xue, you have worked hard too!”
“Be careful on the way home. There are a lot of thieves on the tram recently.”
“Well, sister Xue, you have to be careful yourself.”
Saying goodbye to colleagues one by one, and after the last one left, Xue Xiaoyan rubbed her sore neck, started to pack her things, and did the final inspection.
“Xiao Zhang’s document seems to have several mistakes. Forget it, everyone has left for a while, let me help him correct it.” Xue Xiaoyan frowned slightly, adjusted her glasses on the bridge of her nose, sat down again and started to work .
Not far away, there are two men who haven’t left yet and are packing their things. One of the young men who looked immature still looked at Xue Xiaoyan who was working hard, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and said in a low voice: “Team leader Xue is so handsome…”
Seeing this, another man next to him said with a smile on his face, “That’s natural. Xiao Hu, you haven’t been here for long. I don’t know that Sister Xue is very popular not only in our group, but also in the whole company. The company There are quite a few people like you in there who have a good impression of Sister Xue.”
“Brother Liu is the same?” The little Hu asked back.
“Of course, Sister Xue is so good-looking, very temperamental, and friendly to people. Naturally, I also have a good impression of Sister Xue.” Brother Liu admitted generously first, and then glanced at Xue Xiaoyan who was sitting over there. Weiwei dimmed, shook his head and said: “But I know how much I weigh, so I won’t join in the fun with those people.”
Hearing this, Xiao Hu was also a little discouraged. He pouted and lifted up the mirror on the desk to take a look, trying to find a few bright spots, but finally put down the mirror dejectedly, and sighed: “Then I will It’s even more useless.”
After thinking about it, Xiao Hu was still a little unwilling, and asked in a low voice: “Brother Liu, you usually sit next to Sister Xue, give me some advice? For example, what kind of type does Sister Xue like? Are there any men who are close to me?” Friends. Tonight is the annual fireworks display. If possible, I would like to try to ask Sister Xue to go with me. Maybe it will happen?”
Brother Liu showed a pensive expression, shook his head and said, “I don’t know about this either. At least I have never seen Sister Xue show obvious closeness to anyone, and she keeps a polite distance from those suitors. I promised to go out to eat alone with someone. I have been sitting next to Sister Xue for a year or two. In fact, based on my usual observations, I feel that Sister Xue…”
Speaking of this, Brother Liu showed a strange look and became hesitant.
Xiao Huzheng on the side listened carefully, and couldn’t help urging: “Sister Xue, what is she? Brother Liu, you can’t half-talk!”
Brother Liu hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a wry smile: “I feel that Sister Xue already has someone in her heart. When she is resting, she often looks at her mobile phone in a daze. When I passed by by chance, I found that her mobile phone On the screen is a very beautiful man, so handsome that even a man like me can’t feel jealous. And when Sister Xue is usually in a daze, she is just looking at the picture of that boy.”
Xiao Hu couldn’t help but let out a soft cry, and then quickly glanced at Xue Xiaoyan who was sitting in the distance, and found that he hadn’t attracted attention, so he said with a bitter face: “Doesn’t this mean that I have no hope at all?”
“That’s right, so you should give up your mind. For the fireworks show at night, your brother Liu will accompany you and introduce you to some other beauties.” Brother Liu patted him on the shoulder and packed up. Dongxi walked over to say hello to Xue Xiaoyan, and then dragged the unhappy Xiaohu away.
Not long after, Xue Xiaoyan also finished dealing with the matter at hand. Before leaving the company, she went to the bathroom, stood in front of the faucet, and looked at herself in the glasses. She was dressed in a smart professional attire, and her blond hair was tied into a single ponytail hanging down her head. Finally, a pair of glasses hung on the bridge of his nose, slightly covering his naturally ferocious eyes.
“Sometimes I wonder if it’s me after all.” Xue Xiaoyan shook her head, dried her hands with the machine next to her, turned and left.
Bang Bang Bang Bang…
Listening to the sound of the tram tracks in her ears, Xue Xiaoyan sat by the window and watched the rapidly receding scenery outside, and couldn’t help being dazed.
Getting off work, taking the tram, and going home, such a boring and ordinary life has lasted for more than three years since she graduated from university.
“Has it been seven years…” Xue Xiaoyan muttered to herself, her expression slightly dazed.
It was just a blink of an eye, and seven years had passed since the day I graduated from high school.
Thanks to catching up with her grades in the third year of high school, she was admitted to a fairly good university, and she studied hard enough during the university, so she soon found a good company after graduation, showing excellent work ability , was appreciated by the boss, and sat in the position of team leader in just three years, which can be said to be very successful.
In order to achieve this step, she also made great efforts and sacrifices. Recalling when she first joined the company, she put on glasses to cover her eyes, pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly, and showed an unnatural smile no matter how you looked at it. Now she is already a capable person who can skillfully deal with complex interpersonal relationships in the workplace up.
Along the way, only I know all the bitterness.
Especially for her withdrawn and out-of-group temperament, it is really extremely difficult to become such a good boss who is friendly and eloquent in the eyes of outsiders. The first thing to overcome is her own psychology.
Fortunately, she survived all of this. In order to make money and take good care of her family, these efforts are necessary and worthwhile, and now these efforts have been rewarded. In the eyes of outsiders, she is completely a representative of a successful person.
But Xue Xiaoyan still has a regret in her heart.
“Look, it looks like snow…”
Sudden words pulled Xue Xiaoyan out of memory into reality.
She followed the sound and saw that the sound came from the small screen of the tram. On the screen was a scene of cherry blossoms in full bloom, and a pair of childhood sweethearts who were only about seven or eight years old were chasing each other on a sea of cherry blossoms. The picture was extremely beautiful .
Immediately after the screen turned, a line of text appeared on it, accompanied by a female voice: “The animated version of the popular masterpiece “5 Centimeters Per Second” will be released on July 28! Buy movie tickets and enter the cinema on that day, and you will have a chance to win An original novel signed by the original author of “5 Centimeters Per Second”!”
Xue Xiaoyan was slightly taken aback, and then smiled knowingly.
The novels written by his pen are animated, and it seems that Xia Yan’s career as a writer has reached a new level.
Although the two of them have hardly communicated in the past seven years, she still remembers Xia Yan, a classmate she met in high school.
Not long after, Xue Xiaoyan returned home. She lived in an ordinary apartment building, which she rented after she started working.
She also decided to move out to live alone after working for a year. One is that it is relatively close to the company, making it easier to commute to and from get off work, and the other is that her younger brother has grown up now, so she doesn’t need to worry as much as before, and can take good care of her father, so she moved out with confidence.
As for mother Xue Ran… In recent years, Xue Xiaoyan has changed a lot towards her. The main reason is that Xue Ran has truly reformed herself. She is no longer addicted to gambling, works hard, and strives to make up for past mistakes. At least this is worthy of recognition. Although Xue Xiaoyan still looked indifferent on the surface, in fact, she had basically forgiven her in her heart.
Xue Xiaoyan put her things away, went into the kitchen and made a simple dinner to fill her stomach, when the phone rang.
She picked up the phone and looked at it, and found that it was her younger brother Xue Xiaojing calling, so she chose to answer: “Hello, Xiaojing?”
“Sister, Dad and I are planning to go to the fireworks show, do you want to go too?” Xue Xiaojing’s voice came from the other end. Seven years later, Xue Xiaojing was a big boy who was about to graduate from high school, and his voice was steady.
Xue Xiaoyan smiled and said, “I won’t go.”
“Sure enough.” Xue Xiaojing was not surprised by his sister’s answer. He couldn’t help but wonder: “Sister, why have you gone to every fireworks conference alone in the past seven years? Wouldn’t it be good to go with us?”
“…” Xue Xiaoyan was just silent.
Xue Xiaojing sighed, and said: “Every time you don’t say anything like this, forget it, I don’t ask too much. Sister, you have to take care of your health by yourself. I will take care of you at home. You Don’t worry. Oh, by the way, Mom will come back from time to time. Although Dad hasn’t expressed his position clearly, I can see that his attitude has softened a lot compared to before. ”
“Well, thank you Xiaojing.” Xue Xiaoyan said softly.
Hanging up the phone, Xue Xiaoyan leaned back on the back of the chair, turned her head and looked out the window, the moon and stars were scarce in the dark night, and the laughter of passers-by on the street outside could be faintly heard. At this time, many people were already going out to the designated square to wait. Set off fireworks.
“Let me go too.”
Xue Xiaoyan took a deep breath, stood up and took a shower, changed the professional clothes, and then changed into a casual white one-inch shirt, underneath a pair of light-colored denim shorts, with slender and straight legs underneath, like It is two tender white bamboo shoots, white and tender.
She took off the headband, let her beautiful blond hair hang down her head, and then took off her glasses, revealing those familiar fierce eyes, as if it said that no one should enter.
Just a simple change of clothes, Xue Xiaoyan’s temperament changed drastically, from the close and easy-going strong woman in the workplace to the bad girl she used to be.
In fact, she has not changed, but in order to adapt to the rules of the workplace, she usually wears a mask in the company. And every time she comes home from get off work, she will take off the disguise and reveal her true self.
Xue Xiaoyan took a look at herself in the mirror, couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief, stretched lazily, and murmured: “Sure enough, it’s much more pleasing to the eye.”
She walked out of the house, came to a black motorcycle parked under the apartment, sat on it with long legs, took out the key to start, and the motorcycle drove her out of the apartment building.
The scenery on both sides of the street receded quickly, Xue Xiaoyan’s blond hair fluttered in the wind, and the humming engine sound of the motorcycle attracted the attention of many passers-by on the surrounding streets, perhaps among them were her colleagues and subordinates in the company. But I’m afraid no one would have guessed that this bad girl who seemed to be unapproachable was the close and reliable team leader Xue in their company.
The night is getting darker, but the city is becoming more and more lively. The fireworks ban has been issued for so many years. If ordinary citizens want to see the fireworks, they can only wait for this day. Naturally, they don’t want to miss it.
Moreover, after years of development, today’s fireworks festival is no longer just a simple viewing of fireworks. Whether it is a tryst between a man and a woman, or a family reunion, it is very suitable to choose this night.
Xue Xiao drove the motorcycle, avoiding the crowded central square, but came to another remote uphill road, just above the central square.
This is a good place to enjoy the fireworks after she finally found a good place to watch the fireworks after riding a motorcycle to search everywhere in the city. Not only are there few people, but the field of vision is very wide. When the fireworks show officially starts at 8:30 in the evening, you can perfectly appreciate all the details of the fireworks blooming, which is much better than the crowded square.
Xue Xiaoyan parked the motorcycle, took out the key and put it in his pocket, then walked to the iron fence beside the road, supported the iron fence with both hands, and looked towards the square.
Fifteen minutes more… The fireworks will go up from that place.
Xue Xiaoyan was in a daze. She actually knew that what she did was meaningless. He didn’t come seven years ago, and it’s even more impossible today seven years later.
But for some reason, Xue Xiaoyan still had such a faint hope in her heart.
She also sometimes feels that she is ridiculous. The other party is the brightest moon in the sky, and she is just a tiny dust underneath. Her unrealistic fantasies should have been suppressed as early as high school, and she knew very well from the very beginning how far the distance between the two parties was.
It was enough to be able to look at him from a distance—this was what Xue Xiaoyan thought at the time.
Thinking about it now, when I helped him out on the tram, I got his attention and care by accident. That time was really like a dream, very unreal.
But dreams are always dreams. With the arrival of graduation, her dream also woke up, but that experience and memory were well preserved.
Xue Xiaoyan raised her hand unconsciously, and touched her white side face, in a trance, recalling the moment when he put the plaster on herself.
That was their first real communication, and it was also the beginning of the dream.
During the past seven years, that memory has been carefully preserved in her heart, and it is her precious treasure.
Xue Xiaoyan put down her hands and looked up at the bright moon. It has been seven years, maybe she should also try to let go of her past obsessions and embrace the future.
As for this impossible regret, let it stay in your heart forever…
In the blink of an eye, it was only half a minute before eight thirty.
Xue Xiaoyan quietly looked in the direction of the square, waiting for the fireworks to bloom.
Suddenly, there was a very slight sound of footsteps coming from far to near, slowly walking over, and finally seemed to stand still not far behind her.
Xue Xiaoyan thought it was just a passerby, so she ignored it, and didn’t even look back. But at this moment, a familiar yet unfamiliar male voice sounded: “Excuse me, are you also here to enjoy the fireworks?”
Xue Xiaoyan’s heart trembled, and she turned around in a daze.
A young man was standing opposite, looking at her with a smile on his face, his eyes warm.
At this moment, it seemed that a ray of light broke through the darkness and shone into her heart.
Xue Xiaoyan looked at this figure that haunted her, and she had thousands of words in her heart, but she couldn’t say a word at this moment. The eloquence honed in the workplace became a joke at this moment, and she became that lonely girl who was stupid and couldn’t express herself.
Xue Xiaoyan moved her lips a few times, fixed her eyes on this face that had appeared countless times in her dreams, and finally said three words: “You are here.”
Bai Mufan hummed lightly, walked up to Xue Xiaoyan, looked at this bad girl who was just like back then, with a hint of distress and guilt in his eyes, and said softly: “I’m here to fulfill the promise back then. I’m sorry, I’ll come late.”
Xue Xiaoyan stared at him, and he also stared at the girl. The moment their eyes met, Xue Xiaoyan was sure…that she was not in a dream.
This is reality.
Bai Mufan really came to fulfill the promise of the year.
A promise for two people to enjoy fireworks together.
“Boom!”
As if pinching the timetable, the fireworks took off at this time, exploded suddenly, and bloomed with a beautiful light like a flower, illuminating the dark night.
Some people say that rosy youth is a beautiful youth worth recalling. It’s as if the whole world has been dyed the color of roses, colorful and unforgettable.
Xue Xiaoyan does not have a rosy youth, but she feels that no beautiful scenery in the world can compare to this moment.
She looked at the figure beside her, and then at the fireworks blooming in the night sky. The corners of her mouth showed a beautiful smile like melting spring snow, and she spoke softly.
“The fireworks are so beautiful.”
“Ok.”
