There was a rule in the Hang Hang School that if a parent did not pick up their child, they had to sign an agreement with the school stating that the school was not responsible for the safety of the child outside the school. The child's personal safety before and after school would be borne by the school. Although Ding Nan knew that this was not appropriate, since things had come to this, there was nothing he could do but sign it.
She gave Hang Hang a copy of the key and taught him how to open the door. Every morning, she would send him to school, then go to work herself, and let him go home after school. Fortunately, the school wasn't far from home. It was only a one-stop walk away.
She wanted to work on her own while working with Sun Yan to expand the online store. However, Sun Yan told her that she happened to have a suitable unit after the Spring Festival and had already started work. It was an external contact position in a private company that she had sent a lot of things to and asked her acquaintances to introduce her. She was responsible for dealing with government agencies and her monthly salary was 12,000 yuan after tax. She was very satisfied and went directly.
She was also very hesitant about cooperating with Hu Yu. Hu Yu knew nothing about online store operations, unlike her and Sun Yan who had specially learned about it, so they could discuss and share the pressure together. After much consideration, she could only give up and continue to work. The online store was half-open and half-closed.
As for Hu Yu, after that, she also became an accounting director of a Japanese company. This woman, who looked noble but was weak on the inside, hid her awkward situation and began to frequently go to high-end matchmaking agencies to choose the men she liked. She couldn't be bothered with the huge pile of goods in the basement.
Ding Nan was the only one in the office that day. Wen Feng applied for leave to attend to some matters, Teacher Xu had classes at school and did not come, while Teacher Zhang went out to handle some matters. Seeing that it was already past four in the afternoon, she saved the interview outline she had just written and prepared to turn off her computer and leave. At this moment, the door was pushed open and Zhang walked in with a bag on his back.
Seeing that she was still there, he said with concern,"If there's nothing else, go back first.”The Art Academy had always been so loose, so presumably everyone was used to it.
She had originally planned to leave, but thinking that he was a leader after all and had just entered the door, it was not appropriate for her to leave immediately, so she opened the folder again and sorted out the new information in the journal. Without looking at him, she said,"I'll leave later."
Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, he put his backpack on his desk and walked to Teacher Xu's desk opposite her. He stood there and chatted with her.
"When you have time, draw and write. Don't you want to learn Chinese painting well? Let's start with calligraphy.”He lowered his gaze and looked at her. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the large window on the right and gently reflected on his face. That face had the beauty of a still life in a western painting.
" Mm." She raised her head in the dim light and met his gaze. She smiled and nodded.
"We've already separated. Let's continue searching. What else can we do?”He was still standing and had no intention of sitting down. Sitting down meant that he was preparing for a long talk. Perhaps he had sensed the subtlety of a man and a woman being alone in a room. If they had a long talk, they might not have much to say. However, if he stood, he could leave at any time and wait for an opportunity to reduce unnecessary awkwardness.
She knew that he was referring to her and Li Shi. The man in front of her was ten years older than her, but he looked very young and was close to perfection. He was more active in the art world today. He had both civil and military skills. He was good at writing and painting. His personality and personality were also more complete. He was extremely strong when he was strong, and extremely gentle when he was gentle. Sometimes, one had to look up to see his height. He was arrogant and condescending. His sharpness and sharpness made one feel ashamed of their inferiority. Sometimes, he was extremely understanding and considerate. He was able to put himself in the shoes of his colleagues, subordinates, and even the staff of the unit's cafeteria. There was once when four people in the office went to the office cafeteria for lunch. The cafeteria had a signature system, but some people often signed and some didn't. Only Zhang insisted on signing every time. During lunch, Ding Nan asked him,"I saw some people sign and some people don't. No one said anything, so it's fine if you don't sign, right? Why do you sign it every time?" Zhang replied," It doesn't matter to us whether they sign or not, but the restaurant will suffer a loss. They receive their food expenses from the art academy according to their signatures.”It can be seen that this person is meticulous and kind. Sometimes, he seemed to be ignorant of the world. He would tilt his head like a child and ask you about your private affairs with a cute expression. However, he had an inexplicable magic that could make you talk to him about everything. Even so, it did not make people dislike him, but it made people feel close and like him. He and Ding Nan were more like close friends than superior and subordinate. He knew about Li Shi.
She looked at him and smiled.""I think it's good to be alone in the past two months. I don't want to look for anyone for the next few years. I don't know why, but I'm not interested in men or feelings at all.”
He flipped a ballpoint pen back and forth in his hand and said softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the silence in the house and outside the house at dusk,"I still have some capital now. In a few years, the older I get, the less capital I have.”
She sighed lightly and said," That's true. That's why I'm in a dilemma. I don't want to find one, but my age doesn't wait for anyone." Who said that time was like a butcher's knife?”
He looked at her and hesitated as if he was trying to figure something out. Finally, he said,"If you don't want to get married, you can find a boyfriend or a lover.”
She looked at him. She didn't know if it was because of the bright sunset outside the window, or if it was her imagination, or if it was real, but his face was a little red. She felt that her face was also a little hot. She couldn't see it, so she must be red too. She knew that he didn't mean to be disrespectful or test her. He was just curious and communicating quickly. She only looked at the computer and thought that although it was an adult topic, the two sides of the conversation were adults. There was no need to hide anything. She said,"I'm not that kind of woman. It's as if I can't live without a man. To me, that kind of need is dispensable. Women only have sex when they love each other. I think that's right. I won't look for a man for sex.”
He flipped through a journal on the table and stopped after flipping through a few pages. He smiled and said,""Sometimes, finding someone isn't just for the sake of the physical aspect. It's also for the sake of emotional appeal. It's for the sake of having a companion and someone to communicate with. Humans were social animals. If they lived alone for too long, their minds would become unhealthy. If there's someone suitable, it's better to get married."
She put down the work in her hands and moved the movable swivel chair under her back. She leaned back and said lazily,"Sometimes, when I think about marriage, I feel tired and trivial. I feel that it's better to be alone. "Of course, I might also have the mentality of besieging the city. The people in the city want to rush out, and the people outside the city want to rush in.”
" Maybe you just got out of a relationship and are feeling relaxed," he said disapprovingly." That's why marriage is tiring. Or maybe it's because you haven't really experienced the happiness of marriage." If he found the right person, his marriage would still be very happy!”
There was no doubt that he had experienced it before and was living happily. Ding Nan suddenly felt a sense of desolation in her heart. She lowered her voice and said indifferently,"Maybe."
"Women, it's better to get married later. You'll be busy with other things before the age of 30 and settle your job and career first. You can get married after the age of 30. At that time, your thoughts will be more mature and your marriage will be more stable. It's easy to get divorced if you get married early. You're the best evidence.”He sighed.
She nodded in admiration and teased,"It makes sense. I think so. No wonder you didn't get married until you were 40."
" Send your birth characters to my phone when you get home tonight. I'll read them for you," he said softly. Then, he added," You need tools to read them, so I can't do it now."”
"Do you really believe in this? A great doctor believes in this?" She said in surprise. She knew that he was talking about using the Book of Changes to calculate a person's luck.
She had heard about the turning point many times from him. The turning point he mentioned referred to a turning point in one's life, mostly a good turning point. Everyone's life had several turning points, which would appear once every few years. The frequency of appearance varied according to each person's eight characters. Some people might only appear once every ten years, while others might appear once every three or four years. The year of the turning point was calculated according to the birth characters. Because of the different birth characters, everyone's turning point year was different. According to him, it was easy to get things done in the year of the turning point, including marriage, career, life-and-death matters, etc. If the marriage was completed at the turning point, it would definitely be happy. For a man, a turning point usually meant a career opportunity, but for a woman, it usually meant a marriage opportunity. He also said that his theory had been verified by many of his familiar relatives and friends.
She was indeed skeptical. To be precise, she didn't quite believe it. Was this scientific? How was this possible? Happiness was truly a mysterious and fragile thing. She had been single for many years, and the dust of time flew up and fell down under her feet, but it never settled down. She wanted to get married, but she could not make up her mind because there was never someone who made her want to marry without hesitation. She always had regrets of one kind or another. However, she always thought that the final decision was made by humans, not the heavens. Year after year, marriage was like a flower of despair. The more it bloomed in her heart, the more lonely she became.
"This is not superstition. The Book of Changes is scientific. You need to correct your beliefs in the future.”he declared again.
Although she still didn't believe him, she didn't want to reject his kindness, so she nodded and said,""Okay, I'll send it to you tonight."
At night, she called her mother to ask for her exact time of birth. Then, she wrote a message and sent it to Zhang.
Half an hour later, Zhang called.
