Chapter 7:Wu Meiniang Recognizes Me?
“Fuck you, Hao Ning!"
Early in the morning, a loud roar came out from the office. Everyone looked in the direction of it and got surprised finding that Liu Shuai, who never got angry, was yelling to me, who never allowed anyone to speak with rage in front of me.
I looked at Liu Shuai with a mischievous smile, and noticed that everyone's gaze was fixated on the two of us. I hurriedly said, "what are you looking at? You never saw a product manager discussing his demands with an R&D?”
Everyone suddenly understood what happened. It seemed like Hao Ning once again shoot some demands that Liu Shuai could not tolerate, which might probably induce a bad situation. Some colleagues looked at me sympathetically, then lowered their heads to continue working.
Liu Shuai's face was flushed red. He felt uncomfortable after realizing how loud his voice was, then pulled me into the conference room and closed the door after him.
“Will it really take half a year?" Liu Shuai expressed despair on his face.
I looked at him, and the bad feelings disappeared. People are always like this. When Yan told me that my dick won't work for half a month, I really wanted to tear down his mirror, but when I saw Liu Shuai’s madness after he knew that his dick would be useless for half a year, I suddenly felt relaxed. As Guo Degang said, never compete with the better, compete with the worse.
"Yep, that's what Yan told me," I looked at Liu Shuai, "well, we were discussing about how to save Zhou Yuan, right?”
“Bullshit! Was he not evil enough? How could he show up doing such a bullshit! Losing his mind? I am about to become a chick now! " Liu Shuai said fiercely. To a man, the greatest dignity was probably that piece of meat. He originally thought that it would only last for a couple days, and only after we discussed the matter of Zhou Yuan did he realize how serious his situation was. After that, his attitude took a 180 degree turn immediately. He was discussing with me about how could we save Zhou Yuan, but then he could not hate him worse.
"Alright, alright, if worst comes to worst, I'll treat you some raw oysters everyday!" I knew that he was just speaking angrily, since by nature, he wouldn't leave Zhou Yuan away. "Zhou Yuan only wanted you all to be satisfied with his designs, that’s why he did such a messy work."
“That’s true…" Liu Shuai lowered his head, his eyes turning back and forth. No one knew what he was thinking. "This time it will be more troublesome. I thought that I would be fine in two days, so that I could figure out some ways to help Zhou Yuan. But now, it’s absolutely out of my reach."
"Hao Ning, Zhou Yuan just called me to request a leave of absence. He's not feeling well, so he is not come to work today." After knocking on the door of the conference room, the director came in and greeted me, then hurriedly left for his regular weekly meeting before I nodded my head.
We looked at each other, and I couldn't help but ask, "Could something bad have happened? I went to his home the day before yesterday, but he just lacked of spirit. "
Liu Shuai looked at me with a serious face. "Logically speaking, he won’t. It's only been a few days, but to be safe, let's report it to the director and get off work early tonight to check him up."
The director gave a smooth approval. He would have liked to go with us, but we dissuaded him because we might talk about some subjects that would scare him.
On the way to Zhou Yuan’s place, Liu Shuai suggested to buy some fruits as gift. It seems to me that this Sichuan guy was really considerate towards everything, so we went to the Walmart to prepare some stuff.
As Liu Shuai picked fruits in the fruit area, he did not allow me to help, saying that I did not get the proficiency and asking me go to another area to see if there were any snacks that Zhou Yuan liked to eat. That's fine. I could not tell if the watermelon was ripe or not, but at least I knew what kind of snacks Zhou Yuan preferred.
You could find everything in the supermarket. The home appliances area was broadcasting Fan Bingbing's version of “Legend of Wu Meiniang”. That teleplay recruited a lot of beautiful actress, but many of characters were beheaded in the end, which was a pity. As I thought about it, I couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Back then, Wu Meiniang was trying medicines for Li Zhi, which should be a fake tale and was not listed in official records. Fang Bingbing, actress of Wu Meiniang, intended not to act out politics or schemes. Instead, she only wanted to act out love, which was why she could come up with such a scene. By the way, she was really gorgeous in it.
Just as I was contemplating, Wu Meiniang put down the medicine and looked out of the screen …
"Is there such a thing?" I thought, "I remember it should just switch to another scene. Is the TV broken?"
Concerning of that, I patted the TV.
Then, I noticed Wu Meiniang staring at me and saying, “Are you Hao Ning?”
