Chapter 102: The Earthly World

During the three-day New Year's Day holiday, Ye Zhenzhen once again started her busy life.

More and more customers came to shop at the end of the year, and those years were the heyday of physical stores.

In order to exceed the task target, she worked more than eight hours a day and worked overtime willingly. It had nothing to do with Wen Baijing. Even if Ye Zhenzhen worked for another brand, she would still work to make more money.

Walking back and forth in high heels, her feet felt like torture, so when there were not many customers, she ran to the warehouse to rest.

The sofas in the store are for customers to rest. Shopping guides are not allowed to sit on the sofas. If they want to take a break, they can only put a packaging bag under the warehouse and sit on the ground.

She sat down on the floor, holding onto the shelf. Just as she took off her high heels and was about to sit down, Guo Yan opened the door and said to her, "Manager, there's a beautiful woman outside looking for you."

Ye Zhenzhen sat on the ground with her back to the warehouse door, holding a pair of black high-heeled shoes in her hand. She turned her head to look at Guo Yan and said a little embarrassedly, "Okay, I'll be out right away, you go and do your work first!"

That posture and action are really indecent and somewhat damage one's personal image.

She tidied her clothes and came out of the warehouse, and saw Lin Xiaoxi standing in the store and smiling at her.

Ye Zhenzhen hadn't seen Lin Xiaoxi for a while, and only saw her sharing her life on WeChat Moments. It seemed that she was either out having fun or posting selfies, and occasionally she would post some sad quotes in the dead of night.

She looks much more refined than she did a few months ago, from her makeup, hair, skin to her clothes and accessories.

Lin Xiaoxi walked up to her and took her arm affectionately, behaving just like before, "Zhenzhen, I'm sorry I didn't accompany you on your birthday yesterday."

It turned out that Lin Xiaoxi still remembered Ye Zhenzhen's birthday, but she didn't even send a blessing message yesterday.

I can't figure out what Lin Xiaoxi is going to do today.

Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled calmly, with a touch of detachment in her politeness, "It's okay, it's normal for workers to be busy. Don't feel any psychological pressure."

Lin Xiaoxi didn't seem to notice the politeness in Ye Zhenzhen's words, "Zhenzhen, I came here specially to invite you to lunch today to make amends, please don't refuse me."

He continued to speak to himself: "It's only half past eleven. You must not have eaten yet! Let's go get something to eat together. It won't keep you too long."

Lin Xiaoxi interrupted Ye Zhenzhen before she could say anything, not giving her any chance to refuse.

Ye Zhenzhen greeted her in advance, "I can't be away for too long because of work. The store is very busy right now. Why don't we just eat something downstairs?"

Faced with her former best friend, Ye Zhenzhen wanted to escape. She was afraid of being involved with the nightclub, and she was also worried that speaking frankly would hurt Lin Xiaoxi.

I can't just say, Lin Xiaoxi, please don't come to me again, because you work in a nightclub and I want to break up with you.

The two of them sat in a western-style fast food restaurant, and Ye Zhenzhen couldn't think of how to greet them.

Lin Xiaoxi spoke first: "Zhenzhen, I've been having some problems lately and I don't know what to do. I want to talk to you."

This was within Ye Zhenzhen's expectations. She was not surprised at all. "I may not be able to give you any good advice. Please tell me first."

The voice just fell.

Lin Xiaoxi's smile froze, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She probably realized the change in Ye Zhenzhen. In the past, as long as she said she needed help with something, Ye Zhenzhen would always help her as much as possible.

Lin Xiaoxi said disappointedly: "Zhenzhen, do you look down on me and dislike me working in a nightclub?"

Hearing the word "nightclub", Ye Zhenzhen looked around in panic, fearing that the diners nearby would hear her and look at her strangely.

Ye Zhenzhen's tone was a little cold, and she reminded him, "Xiaoxi, don't mention these two words in public. It's not good for you or me."

Realizing that her tone was not very good, Ye Zhenzhen forced a smile: "What happened to you? Tell me."

Lin Xiaoxi didn't take her estrangement to heart, and just wanted to talk, "I want to leave Ye...that place..."

Ye Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows. It was totally unexpected. Her voice softened inexplicably. "It's okay to leave. Just think it through."

As long as Lin Xiaoxi left there, Ye Zhenzhen still wanted to interact with her, so she wouldn't have so many concerns and worries.

Lin Xiaoxi clenched the glass, "My boyfriend told me to leave and give me pocket money every month and buy me a car and a house."

Ye Zhenzhen took a piece of pizza and forgot to put it in her mouth.

It's a cliché story. A rich man falls in love with Lin Xiaoxi and uses a house and a car as bait to get her to have a child. The man is not young anymore and it's impossible for him to marry her.

The temptation is great, the cost is high, and the risk is even greater.

After Lin Xiaoxi finished speaking, she took a sip of water and couldn't eat anything.

It is not difficult to see her torment and confusion.

Ye Zhenzhen couldn't give her any advice. Lin Xiaoxi was faced with two choices: leaving the nightclub and becoming a golden bird, or continuing to stay in the nightclub. Neither seemed to be a good choice.

Ye Zhenzhen didn't intend to give up on this friend. She kept her fantasy in mind and asked tentatively, "Xiaoxi, have you ever thought about when to leave there? Live a normal life?"

Lin Xiaoxi sighed and said with a wry smile: "Zhenzhen, before you became the store manager, did you really not regret leaving there at all?"

Ye Zhenzhen replied without hesitation: "Xiaoxi, I'm glad I left. What I regret most is that I was stupid enough to go there."

Lin Xiaoxi shook her head at her, "Not everyone is as lucky as you, and can go smoothly after leaving."

Ye Zhenzhen put down the pizza and said sternly, "Xiaoxi, nothing has gone smoothly since I left. Except for those who will be reincarnated, most people will experience a lot of hardships."

Lin Xiaoxi didn't intend to argue with her, and spoke her mind in a hoarse voice: "Marriage is about having children and living together, paying mortgages and car loans for a lifetime, and daily necessities, and quarreling over trivial matters.

Nowadays, you only need to have a child and you can have a house, a car and money to spend without having to struggle. "

In fact, Lin Xiaoxi had already made up her mind, she just wanted to find Ye Zhenzhen to agree with her and affirm her.

Lin Xiaoxi used to be so innocent and cute, laughing heartily and cheerful all day long.

Lin Xiaoxi has become what she is today, is it because she has finally come to her senses or has gone astray.

Ye Zhenzhen cannot use her values ​​to define other people's lives.

She suddenly realized that her former friend was becoming more and more distant, and the man in front of her had been completely blinded by money.

It cannot be said that this is a bad thing, everyone has their own choices.

Ye Zhenzhen knew that she couldn't persuade him, nor could she make choices for others. She could only bid farewell to Lin Xiaoxi in a hurry, after all, she was still at work.

She clenched her left wrist and was unwilling to let go for a long time.

At the end of 2012, there was heavy snow, and the snow accumulated on the ground was about five or six centimeters deep.

On New Year's Day 2013, cleaners were clearing snow from the roads, and the world was gradually returning to its original appearance.
