Chapter 3 The record of the 3 fastest blind dates was deleted! What to do?


Chapter 3 3. The record of the fastest blind date was deleted! What to do?

It is now past the normal working hours for most people.

So, the subway is no longer so crowded.

Jiang Chen entered the subway smoothly. After a quick glance, there were no seats, but the other spaces were large and he could stand wherever he wanted, so he stood for a while leaning against the handrails.

“Ding!”

The phone sounded a notification tone to add a friend.

Jiang Chen was confused for a moment, picked up his phone and looked at it. He saw a friend request from an unknown number. The profile picture was of an exquisite cartoon beauty. He thought it was an advertisement or something and wanted to ignore it. But I saw some news later - introduced by Aunt Zhang!

Aunt Zhang introduced it?

Jiang Chen immediately remembered the thirty-one-year-old girl that his mother called last night and clicked through.

The other party immediately sent a message.

"Hello, I think you were also forced to go on a blind date by your family, right?"

Jiang Chen stood on the subway, it was difficult to send a message, so he could only send one word - um!

The other party also quickly sent a message.

"Well, let's not meet each other. I've been too busy recently. However, we both told our families that we had met, and just said we didn't feel anything, and just let it go. How about that?"< br>
Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up.

Is there such a good thing?

At least save money on a meal.

Immediately replied: "Good idea, OK!"

The other party immediately replied: "Okay, I will call my mother tonight and say so. You can call me later. ”

Jiang Chen: “No problem!”

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye..."

The next second, Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.

Because.

He didn’t say goodbye!

Prompt that you need to add the other person as a friend...

"Delete me now?"

Jiang Chen has become a big blind dater in recent years. He was introduced by his family and colleagues, and there were no five. Ten, there are twenty or thirty.

I have met more than a dozen people, but we haven’t talked for long. A month is considered a long time.

Moreover, after we stop chatting, we will basically delete each other.

But...

This time it only took less than a minute from being added as a friend to being deleted.

“Set the fastest record, but it was deleted without ever seeing it!”

Jiang Chen felt like laughing in his heart, but he wasn’t angry, he just felt it was fun.

It is indeed the magic city with the fastest pace of life in China.

After taking the subway twice, I finally arrived at the company, which took exactly one hour.

Although he was late, Jiang Chen still swiped his face and checked in as usual.

As soon as he entered the office, his colleagues glanced at Jiang Chen, and then they all looked at him twice in surprise.

“Is that Jiang Chen?”

“You dressed up specially today? What are you doing?”

"Isn't he being interviewed by the boss today? He is so handsome because he wants to be promoted?"

"So Jiang Chen is so handsome."

......

Jiang Chen He has been working in this company for four years. During these four years, he has always kept a low profile and usually dresses like an ordinary otaku, so no one pays attention to him.

Today, Jiang Chen took a shower in the morning, washed his face well, and put on a clean suit, that’s all!

However, the whole person seemed to be different.

Everyone discovered that Jiang Chen turned out to be so handsome and energetic.

A colleague came up to Jiang Chen and said jokingly: "Lao Jiang, are you getting promoted? Or are you going on a blind date and dressing up so handsome?"

Jiang Chen also smiled lightly and said: "No. I know!”

After saying that, Jiang Chen waved and said hello to a few colleagues he had chatted with before turning and walking towards the office of the project team boss.

Through the glass, Jiang Chen saw a colleague already sitting in the office talking.

After waiting for two minutes, a colleague came out with a somewhat lonely expression. He glanced at Jiang Chen with a complicated look, grinned reluctantly, and then walked to his workstation.

Jiang Chen also nodded and said hello, then walked into the office, nodded to the boss and sat down on his own.

Project manager Zhang Yang looked at Jiang Chen in surprise and asked curiously: "Jiang Chen, are you going on a blind date today?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "No! Boss, there's something wrong Just say it!”

Zhang Yang looked Jiang Chen up and down, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you are in such good condition, I feel relieved. Originally, the conversation was a matter for the human resources department. However, as a member of my own project team, I will do it myself! Jiang Chen, you know, the company has been in bad shape in the past two years."

"Our project team may be disbanded. I don't know which department I will be transferred to, or even whether I can stay. . You have to find another way out now."
< br>Jiang Chen had expected this result for a long time, so it was not surprising. On the contrary, his whole body relaxed a little, as if he had suddenly let go of the heavy burden he had been carrying for a long time, and asked softly: "Where is the compensation for dismissal?"

Zhang Yang: "You have been in the company for four years, and I will give you five months' salary. There is no performance reward. I will give it to you together next month. It may be 50,000 yuan. Let's all have a good time together!"

Jiang Chen Surprised: "The company is so happy?"

He is ready for labor arbitration.

Such things happen all the time in mega cities like Shanghai, where you have to queue up to go to labor arbitration.

As a result...

The company directly and readily gave him five months' salary compensation.

Zhang Yang smiled helplessly and said: "I helped you fight for this, so I have the honor to talk to you in person. Otherwise, I will directly push it to the human resources department, which is shameless. You.”

Jiang Chen nodded, stood up and extended his hand to Zhang Yang: "Thank you."

Zhang Yang also stood up and shook hands with Jiang Chen, looking Jiang Chen up and down: "Jiang Chen, you have changed!" Jiang Chen let go of his hand, sat down slowly, and showed a confident smile: "Maybe, this is the real me."

Zhang Yang froze in place, his eyes were inexplicably red. , this sentence touched some soft spots in his heart.

Who doesn’t want to be true to himself?

It's a pity that he is already thirty-eight years old, has a mortgage, children, and a wife. He can only earn a stable salary as much as possible to support his family.

"That's great, I wish you all the best in the future."

Zhang Yang sincerely wished Jiang Chen a sincere blessing.

Jiang Chen nodded, his confidence getting stronger.

Recalling the high-spirited days when I was a teenager.

Who is not confident?

What a pity.

After entering the society, all those high spirits were wiped away.

Jiang Chen also has a good impression of Zhang Yang. As a project manager, Zhang Yang has always taken good care of Jiang Chen and other members. He will not work overtime if he can, and he will try not to disturb them after work.

I have been working here for several years, and my salary has increased from nine thousand yuan at the beginning to sixteen thousand yuan now. Jiang Chen is living a pretty good life, although he has not saved much money!

"Boss, goodbye!"

Jiang Chen called Zhang Yang "Boss" again and then left.

Zhang Yang looked at Jiang Chen, who was high-spirited and handsome, and waved with envy. After Jiang Chen walked out of the office, he took out his mobile phone and turned on the front camera to look at the round, greasy and bald face. He touched his big belly.

Then, Zhang Yang took out his wallet and looked at himself in his graduation photo more than ten years ago with a confident look on his face. His face was full of nostalgia, melancholy, and sadness.

Jiang Chen came to his work station, packed his things a little, said hello to a few familiar people, and prepared to leave.

"Jiang Chen, what are you going to do in the future? I want to set up a studio of my own. Do you want to come with us?"

A colleague approached Jiang Chen and asked.

Jiang Chen thought for a while, he didn’t know what he wanted to do yet, but he didn’t want to continue being a programmer.

So tired!

Now that there is a self-discipline system to supervise himself, Jiang Chen first wants to complete the system's self-discipline tasks, so he doesn't want to do work with chaotic working hours.

and.

With the company's compensation of 50,000 yuan, plus the 20,000 yuan on his card, he has a total of 70,000 yuan, which is enough for him to live without worries for a while.

Since you don’t plan to start a family and get married, let’s live a more relaxed and unrestrained life.

Jiang Chen shook his head at the same time: "Thank you, I want to take a break for the time being."

My colleague patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder: "Okay, if you want to come then, please feel free to contact me! ”

Jiang Chen: "Okay!"

Waving to a few colleagues, Jiang Chen picked up his belongings and left the company.

After walking out of the company, Jiang Chen just wanted to go back to the rental house.

However, a line of prompt information appeared in front of him - "Maintaining a moderate amount of exercise is good for physical and mental health."

Well, Jiang Chen has indeed not exercised seriously for a long time.

After looking at the system prompts, Jiang Chen gave up his plan to go back to the rental house directly. Instead, he took the subway to a nearby park and worked out with many older adults and aunties in the park. There were all kinds of fitness equipment here.

Jiang Chen began to try out fitness equipment one by one.

He is familiar with these things. He used to play with them almost every day when he was in school.

But now I touch it again, but it feels so strange.

No one can pull up the horizontal bar, my arms hurt, give up!

Parallel bars, barely one, shoulder muscles hurt, give up!

After doing ten push-ups, my hands started to tremble and I gave up.

Sit-ups, five, give up!

Jogging, five hundred meters, out of breath, temporarily over!

Jiang Chen's forehead was covered with sweat. He panted and went to the roadside store to buy a bottle of water. He drank most of it in one go before he felt better.

"You're only thirty, and you're such a weakling! Back then, I was an accomplished athlete who could pull thirty horizontal bars, fifty parallel bars, eighty push-ups, and fifty sit-ups at one go. I won the 5,000-meter meter in elementary school. Ranked first in long-distance running, participated in winter long-distance running every year in junior high school , I won the third place in the 3,000-meter race in the high school sports meet, and I got the tenth place in the 5,000-meter long-distance race in the college sports meet..."

Jiang Chen recalled his previous achievements, and was very moved by how weak he is now. Decide to exercise every day from now on.

Since you plan to live a single life, you must have a good body and suffer less when you get older.

“It’s lunch time, please eat in moderation and don’t overeat!”

“Maintaining the habit of taking a nap after lunch will help your physical and mental health.”

The two-line prompt appears again.

It's time for lunch.

Jiang Chen felt like this system was like a nanny, always reminding him that it was time to eat and sleep...

Dragging his aching body, he slowly came to a nearby fast food restaurant. When I was about to order a set meal, the system prompt appeared again.

“Please maintain a healthy diet, with a mix of meat and vegetables, less oil and less salt, and avoid overeating.”

Having no choice, Jiang Chen could only follow the prompts and ordered a set meal of one vegetarian dish and one meat dish, and ordered half a bowl of rice.

Although you can add rice for free, Jiang Chen followed the system prompts and ate until he was six to seven minutes full, so he only ordered half a bowl of rice.

After eating, Jiang Chen took the subway back to the rental house and prepared to take a nap.

Take a nap?

Jiang Chen hasn’t taken a nap in several years.

Fortunately, who doesn’t need to wash up after taking a nap?

Jiang Chen returned home and washed his hands, then lay down and went to sleep.

Slept for two full hours.

After getting up, Jiang Chen sat on the bed, a little confused!

Fired from the company!

What should I do now?

Continue to look for a job in Shanghai?

Or go back to your hometown, Chengdu, to find a job?

Or...

Take a break first and spend the 70,000 yuan for a while before spending a while?
