At the end of the year review down, Qin Li finally and the deputy section level rubbed shoulders. The congratulatory voices are all over the place, are for others, relative to the lively there, Qin Li's desk in front of the cold and quiet looks a little bleak.
After work, the guys wanted to go to celebrate and let the promotion of the person pay the bill, also called Qin Li, but she politely refused.
When colleagues have gone, the office is quiet again. After years of hard work had gone down the drain, Qin Li was depressed and sat alone in her chair, fuming.
Recently, bad luck always seems to follow her, career and love two bad, even a little unlucky so that she began to doubt life.
The cell phone screen lit up, it was Qin Li's mother's phone, again urging her to go on the blind date, Qin Li did not want to answer.
After the last big mess, Qin Li's mother also accepts the fact that her daughter's divorced, she is now busy with Qin Li's second half of life and keeps looking for her object.
But the conditions of the good once heard that she is divorced, and then no further. The appointment to meet, at ten have eleven is very good, with ten minutes Qin Li wants to escape. There is another one, who is gay, who was forced by his parents to come to the blind date, and so the parents of both sides, the man said clearly. Marriage can be, but different rooms, each playing their own, do not interfere with each other. Moreover, he confessed that he approached Qin Li because he had heard that she was divorced and unable to have children, and he did not want children.
Qin Li did not reject homosexuality, but cheating on marriage is not right, so she thought nothing of pulling the other party into the blacklist.
Qin Li's mother saw that the cell phone could not be reached, and then called the office landline, forcing Qin Li to answer.
Qin Li's forehead tightened for a moment, "Mom, I'm working overtime, I'm not available today."
Qin Li's mom, "Don't use overtime as an excuse. How about the little Wang that I introduced to you last time?"
It's okay if I don't say it, once I say it, Qin Li is a bag of gas.
"That Wang Snap is a comrade. As soon as you guys left, he had a showdown with me."
Qin Li's mom, "What did he say?"
Qin Li repeated Wang Snap's words, and Qin Li's mother heard it in one sentence, "Wang Snap's family is in good condition."
Qin Li thought that his mother did not hear, and said, "Mom, gay is gay, men and men together kind."
Who knows, Qin Li's mom said, "I know."
Qin Li found it unbelievable, "Knowing that you still let me go on a blind date?" Isn't this a pitfall for her?
Qin Li's mom said with a straight face, "You think you're still a hot 18-year-old girl, it's not bad that someone is willing to marry you, you can't have children anyway, who else can you screw? His family has money, at least you won't have to worry about the rest of your life. Do you still want to find true love?"
Qin Li resisted, "Even if you don't want to find true love, then at least you have to talk about it."
Qin Li's mom, "Get to know each other, then we can talk."
"Mom, he's gay cheating on his marriage. If the neighbors knew, wouldn't they laugh their heads off? You're also too cheap to sell your daughter!" The more Qin Li said, the angrier she became, fortunately, she couldn't take a concubine in modern times, otherwise, she felt that her mother would not hesitate to sell her to a rich man as a concubine. Sometimes, she doubted if this was still her real mom.
Qin Li's mom was silent for a while and said, "Forget about this Wang Snapdragon, but you still have to go on the next blind date."
"Mom, I'm such an eyesore that you have to get rid of me?"
Qin Li's mom said in a serious tone, "I'm doing this for your good. Before you reach thirty, seize the tail end of your youth, and you may still be able to marry a good family. Otherwise, when you're alone in your old age and you can't have children, you won't even have anyone to see you off."
Qin Li, "You also said I'm still young, can't you let me fall in love freely and let nature take its course?"
Qin Li's mom, "Of course not. Tomorrow night at seven o'clock, at the Hengshan Hotel there, the object is your third aunt's nephew, you give me the upper hand, understand?"
Qin Li, "Mom ..."
Qin Li's mom grabbed in front of her and said, "If you don't go, I'll die for you."
After saying this, she hung up the phone with a snap.
Qin Li was troubled and grabbed a handful of hair hard, she was going crazy for her mother, and this day could not live.
She thought of escaping, but where to escape to?
In desperation, she thought of Dani Qu, perhaps going abroad could relieve her current life.
On impulse, she called Dani Qu and asked, "What can I do to get out of the country within a month?"
Qu Dani was baffled, "You want to leave the country?"
Qin Li pulled her hair in annoyance, "I'm being driven crazy by my mom. She arranges blind dates for me every day, and if I resist, she will force me to die."
Qu Dani, "What about the blind date? Is there anyone you like?"
Qin Li, "They're all weirdos!"
Qu Dani sighed sympathetically, "Looks like we're in the same boat."
Qin Li said, "Didn't you mention studying abroad last time? In my case, can I apply to a school? How long will it take for the visa to come off?"
Qu Dani said, "Have you finally made up your mind?"
Qin Li gave a hmmm.
Qu Dani, "Then, leave this to me, I have an acquaintance in the study abroad agency, she is familiar with the process. In a few days, I'll send you the materials you need to prepare, and you go prepare them."
Qin Li, "I can't wait a day, I'd better leave tomorrow."
Qu Dani giggled on the other end of the phone, "Looks like you really can't carry on. Fine, I'll get back to you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Li opened her computer and had just typed the three words of her resignation letter on Word when someone came over.
She looked up and it was Zhang Fen. She said that she forgot to take the documents, so she came back after dinner to get them.
Zhang Fen was surprised, "Sister Li, why haven't you gone home yet?"
Qin Li, "There are still some things to take care of."
Zhang Fen was upset on her behalf, "Since you didn't become a deputy section, why are you still working so hard, the leaders can't see it again."
Qin Li smiled, "It's my business."
Zhang Fen wore a guilty face, "I'm sorry, Sister Li, I'm the one who dragged you down and prevented you from being promoted."
Qin Li shook her head, "I don't blame you, it's my bad luck. You go home early."
Zhang Fen, "I'll leave then, Sister Li, you go home early too."
Qin Li spent ten minutes writing and printing out the resignation letter, then putting it on Lin Guodong's desk, after doing these things Hou, her heart cleared all of a sudden.
This job, this home, it's all garbage, she doesn't want any of it, she's going to a place where no one knows her to start over.
Dani Qu was faithful, and sure enough, she brought her a reply the next day.
"My friend can help you with your visa and school application on your behalf, but there is an agency fee. Can you accept that? The intermediary isn't much, just ten thousand. You can also do it yourself, it's just a bit complicated, and I thought you said you couldn't wait. So I suggest going through the intermediary."
Qin Li made up his mind and didn't care about the ten thousand, and said cheerfully, "Ten thousand is ten thousand, as long as it allows me to go as soon as possible."
"What about your unit?"
"I've already left my job. Lin Guodong called me today, and I didn't answer it, to be honest, I've been bullied by him for a long time, so I'm finally relieved, I don't have to look at his mouth anymore."
Dani Qu tsked, "You do things in a thunderous manner. Aren't you afraid that the visa won't come off?"
"What are you afraid of, there are so many countries in the world, as long as you have money, you can't go anywhere. I'm thankful to Sun Yat, at least he left me half a million dollars."
"That's right." Qu Dani asked, "Are you still in contact with Sun Yat?"
Speaking of Sun Yat, her heart still palpitates a bit painfully, After seven years of husband and wife finally only left with half a million dollars, how can one not let people sigh?
"Just added a web." Although it has been divorced, there are still some follow-up handovers, Qin Li did not want to talk to him, simply secondary contact.
"This kid is heartless, also does not care about the feelings of the ex-wife, so blatantly shows love in the circle of friends. A moment for the three children to buy a diamond ring, a moment to travel abroad, and even three children to Hong Kong pregnancy test to take a picture to put up a sun. Not afraid of so show, die fast."
Qu Dani said these she did not know, since the divorce, Qin Li did not dared to go to the circle of friends, for fear of seeing the bad.
Seeing that she did not speak, Qu Dani knew that she said too much, busy changing the topic, "Well, not to say, you send me the material when it is ready."
***
Everything went very smoothly, Qu Dani's friend was very responsible and got her an invitation to enroll at Munich University and applied for a language class for her.
Qin Li studied German at the university, and this time she went to continue to study Germanic Literature, so she could get a good visa for the right specialty. She doesn't care about the diploma, she just wants to leave this sad place quickly.
Qu Dani's vacation is over, Qin Li will send her to the airport, parting, some sadness. After all, this friend had been by her side when she needed help the most.
"I'll help you get organized, give me the news when you get your visa."
In the next few days, Qin Li was preparing the documents and submitting the visa. She had plenty of time now that she wasn't working, and during that time, Zhang Fen made a few calls to inquire about business.
Zhang Fen complained that since she resigned, the department was in disarray and that the new deputy section chief had problems with his ability and couldn't lead the group at all. A lot of things, before Qin Li a person alone contracted, now things no one to do, can only be assigned by the head, we were not familiar with the new task and did not do well. Lin Guodong every day to beat the table bursting veins, but also to no avail, he let Zhang Fen make this phone call, just wanting to call Qin Li back.
Qin Li smiled and said nothing, neither promised nor refused. There are times like this, the importance of a person is reflected through his departure.
The visa came down quickly, everything went smoothly, and Qin Li booked the airfare. She sold a Passat she drove, plus the deposit of fine soft, zero total of six hundred thousand, converted into euros also have eighty thousand. It wasn't too much money, but it was enough for her to study abroad for two or three years. She opened a new credit card, deposited the money into her euro account, changed some cash, and brought it with her, ready to go.
The old clothes were all cheap, she didn't want them, planning to buy them again when she arrived in Europe. Home things thrown away, give away, basically empty.
She sent a text message to Sun Yat, telling him to leave until the end of this month, and the house would return to him.
Sun Yat is generous, full of promise, and says there is no problem so that she can live.
Probably these two text messages were seen by Xu Jing, and the next day she even came to the door by herself.
She was three months pregnant and her stomach wasn't very visible, but she still wore a maternity shirt and deliberately ran to Qin Li to show off.
"Sun Yat is an honest person and is too embarrassed to say anything, so I came to pass on a message. You'd better return this house to us as soon as possible, we want to redecorate it as a wedding room."
Yesterday, Sun Yat-sen said that there was no problem, but today he changed his mind, Qin Li didn't need to think about it to know that it must be this prospective Mrs. Sun who was jealous and unhappy.
Qin Li didn't want to say more and said, "I'll hand over the keys at the end of the month."
Xu Jing interrupted her, "I want you to move out by the weekend."
Since the mistress had spoken, Qin Li didn't want to pray like a beggar, and since she was about to leave anyway, she said, "Okay."
Xu Jing didn't expect her to agree so quickly, and couldn't help but be stunned, she then said, "We're having a wedding in the middle of next month, I hope you'll come to attend, you're Sun Yi's ex-wife, so you don't have to pay your share."
Qin Li did not say anything.
The mistress had pried the original wife away and blatantly invited the original wife for a drink, it was really strange. However, since Qin Li was forced by her mother to go on a blind date, she had already seen all kinds of extremes, and the world was full of strange people and strange things, refreshing the three views in minutes.
Seeing her silence, Xu Jing was even more complacent, raising her hand to deliberately display the diamond ring on her finger, saying, "This is the proposal ring he sent me, Katia's, 180,000 yen, we flew to Hong Kong to buy it. He also promised to take me to Europe for my honeymoon after the baby was born. Sun Yat-sen is quite a nice guy."
Qin Li knows that these are his intention to say to their hearing, is to show off, but in front of a defeated ex-wife show off, figure what?
It took Qin Li a great deal of effort not to jerk her hand up to her face as she squeezed out a smile and said nonchalantly, "Then I wish you two to be together forever!"
