Chapter 82 Happy New Year

14days ago Urban Novels 5
On New Year's Eve, the Xiao family's house was brightly lit

Xiao Hongyan's parents had died of illness in the early years. He was the eldest of the family and had a good relationship with his second brother and third sister since childhood. So during the Chinese New Year, the three families gathered together.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the card table was set up, and the adults surrounded each other and passed the time to wait for the New Year.

Xiao Qin was not interested in playing cards tonight, so he stayed in the corner of the sofa watching TV. The other end of the sofa was his generation younger than him, and the youngest children in the family.

Since returning to China, during the Chinese New Year, Xiao Hongyan had to repeatedly remind Xiao Qin to stay in Xiao’s house and live with them, because Xiao Qin felt that it was too noisy and not as quiet as himself.

This year is different. Before Xiao Hongyan could speak, he went home early. No, because of anything else, he just didn't want to be alone, so he was so panicked.

Xiao Hongyan was confused and thought that he had finally realized his family from the bottom of his heart. His face, which had always been serious, eased a lot, and he didn't talk to him alone.

The Spring Festival Gala is inevitably played on TV, performing noisy skits

Strangely, children nowadays don’t like watching TV anymore. They can play with a mobile phone or tablet in their hands, and they are the only one watching TV.

Xiao Qin frowned and didn't know what he was thinking. Sitting not far away, Xiao Hongyan's third sister, the little granddaughter of Aunt Xiao Qin's family, suddenly spoke to Xiao Qin: Uncle, is it better to have a mobile phone?

What? Xiao Qin didn't react for a moment

Look at you, although you seem to be staring at the TV, your phone has been turned in your hand, so you actually still want to play with your phone but not watch TV, right?

Xiao Qin didn't know how to answer, but the little girl didn't wait for him to reply, lowered her head and continued to play with her cell phone, and she was still muttering: Mom always said that I would allow me to watch TV after I finished my homework. Humph, what's the good thing about TV? Is it better to watch on your phone? Isn't you the same for adults? I also like to play on your phone... But if you want to play, just play, what's there to hide...

Xiao Qin laughed, but he didn't expect that the child now is not old, but he is so clever. He actually saw that he didn't watch TV at all. It's really interesting

The New Year's Eve at Lianglu's family is much simpler than that, only the family of three

Liang Lu's parents slept early and did not stay up to the New Year. They went back to their room to sleep at the right time

Liang Lu was lying on the bed holding her cell phone, sending New Year greetings with her friends and classmates. Suddenly, she heard the sound of fireworks ringing outside the window. When she looked at the time, she realized that there were still a few minutes to be the New Year.

She lay by the window, watching the clusters of colorful fireworks in the distance, and heard someone in the yard downstairs shouting a countdown. She was infected by the atmosphere and counted silently in her heart. When she counted to the last count, the phone in her hand sounded, and the chat software that had been silently silent on the phone for a long time had only two users sent a message: Happy New Year, the chat software of the two users: Happy New Year

The holiday is the shortest time, and it’s time to go to work in a blink of an eye. The atmosphere of the New Year has not yet dissipated, and the office worker has begun to leave home in a hurry.

According to the previous notice arrangement, after Liang Lu arrived at the group, she would first go to the Human Resources Department to report.

Manager Yang, who was on the phone with her a few years ago, received her, passed the procedures with her, signed a new labor contract, recorded the fingerprint and facial recognition of the clock in, and then gave her a few basic dress codes and other words, and brought her to the investment department.

The full name of the Group Investment Department is the Investment Development Department. The department is not large and there are not many staff members, but it seems that the work pace is much faster than that of Huanyu.

When Liang Lu was brought here, most of the colleagues sitting in a bustling place nodded and greeted her lightly, and then they buried their heads in their work.

This made Liang Lu feel a little nervous. After all, this was the first day of work after the New Year. Most people were still lazy and didn't get into work, but it seemed that it had already started to operate as usual.

Nick's office is located a little inside the department. The pure glass structure is open, clean and transparent, which is the first impression left on Liang Lu.

When Manager Yang took Liang Lu to stand at Nick's office door, he was on the phone. After seeing the two of them, he gestured to Manager Yang to express his gratitude for letting him do his own work. Then he pointed to the sofa beside the door and asked Liang Lu to sit and wait.

He spoke English, as if he was negotiating with the other party. I don’t know if it was a cross-border call, but it seemed that it would not end in a short time.

Liang Lu wanted to relax a little, so she diverted her attention and looked around. Then she found that the wall outside the office was the floor-to-ceiling window of the group building, which happened to be where the speedboat and seagulls could be seen in Linhai, while the other three walls were built according to this window.

Interestingly, except for the concrete wall behind him, there are no curtains on the other two sides of the glass, and there are no blinds. Only decorative horizontal stickers are pasted. The width and position of the stickers are excellent, and they not only have the shape, but also allow people inside and outside to see each other, but they can only see the lower body, blocking the upper body and face.

This is not the first time Liang Lu has come to the group. When she was transferred to volunteer, she has also contacted other departments due to work. However, she has never seen an office with such a simple and just right design. It can achieve the effect of mastering the dynamics without infringing on privacy by making a big move.

Nick hung up the phone, his gray-blue eyes were smiling, and he quietly watched her wait for her to come back to her senses.

When Liang Lu reacted, she couldn't help but blush. She casually said English to apologize, but thought that he replied to her in Chinese: It's okay, I'm learning Chinese, and we should try our best to express it in Chinese in the future.

His tone is still not as natural as speaking his native language, but it is much fluent than when he saw it in the market a year ago. He can improve so quickly in such a short time. He doesn’t have to put in his own language skills after putting in effort. No matter what the reason is, it can be said that this is a very capable person.

Nick introduced Liang Lu to colleagues in the office and arranged a work station for her, and was closest to her office door. Before returning to the office, she also told her not to be anxious, to be familiar with the environment first, to invite her to lunch, and to chat in detail.

After the Chinese New Year, Li Jia still had to rest in bed and rest her ribs had not yet fully recovered. The lost memory before the incident happened had recovered.

After being stimulated by Lao Fu's wife that day, she remembered something intermittently, but did not feel anything unusual.

The car was going downhill at that time, but the speed did not decrease. When Lao Fu shouted that the brake failed, he decisively leaned the car to the side with a roadblock, trying to rub the roadblock to increase friction and slow down, and prevent the car from moving forward, but he failed to avoid a wall blocking opposite.

It can be said that Lao Fu sacrificed himself to save her, so Lao Fu must be fine

However, the police said that the dashcam in the car did not record the day of the incident because the memory was full. This was normal and abnormal because the dashcam has a circular recording function. After the memory was full, the earliest video will be automatically deleted unless someone manually turned off the function.

Is this a coincidence?

Li Jia couldn't think of a reason. She couldn't logically connect those fragmented memories, and the police did not find useful things from her memories. She thought about it and finally called Xiao Qin and wanted to talk to him.
