Chapter 38: Shitty Memory!(4)
"Xiao He…" Li Ru didn’t know how to respond to his tough attitude.
"Miss Li." He Bai interrupted her and lowered his voice: "I don’t want to ask why you didn’t tell me privately that a client had gone there for me. You have to listen to your boss, I understand. But that doesn’t mean that I can give up my principle out of mercy. Saint Elephant ignores the demands of clients and only cares about its own development. This kind of studio cannot survive long. Do you want to waste your career in that hopeless place?"
Li Ru fell into silence. She recalled the recent suspension announcement and her years of devotion to making Saint Elephant stronger, all of which upset her
"I understand", she took a slight breath and picked up again, forcing a smile: "I still owe you an apology. This is also my fault. I will convey your idea to Saint Elephant, thank you, Xiao He."
Then she hung up. Watching the off-line calling interface, He Bai relaxed his shoulders and gave a sigh, then a new message came.
Li Ru: The elder man’s contact number is 13XXX. After this mess, I will resign from Saint Elephant and try in other companies. Sorry and thanks, see you.
He Bai was shocked and then type with a smile.
He Bai: See you, and look forward to the next meeting.
"Master Di, you really decide to leave in advance?" Assistant Wang was a little bit hesitant, "The boss has begun to investigating Assistant An, and he wants to meet you. I don’t think it is a good idea to leave now."
"No, it’s very good." Di Qiuhe glanced at the hot issues and shut down the computer, saying emotionlessly, "Oh, he wants to see me now and I have to go for him? And when he doesn’t want to see me, I have to be kept under surveillance? What am I? A dog? The training is very tight. The crew has already urged me back during my days of absence, so I have to return now."
After hearing what he said, Assistant Wang dared not to continue, so he packed up luggage quietly.
"You…" Di Qiuhe said abruptly.
Assistant Wang turned to him instantly, ready for any orders, "At your disposal!"
Di Qiuhe looked at his dumb face, and the pictures where his little puppy sat beside the pool with phone in his hand flashed in his mind. He looked down and shook his head, "Nothing, just pack up the things. I’m going out for a while."
"The flight is tonight…"
"Don’t worry, I’ll make it." Di Qiuhe interrupted him and took his bag, "You go to the airport first and don’t forget to comfort Assistant An when you’re free."
Assistant Wang got rigid, and responded with a lowering head.
A fragile woman was the best target to pick up. The "honey trap" was a good trap, but if you could follow this trap return a "handsome trap", that will be perfect.
The sun had not set yet. The heat in summer still swept over the campus of Q University, making people fidgety.
At the end of the road came a familiar figure. Di Qiuhe, who sat on the bench under the tree raised his head, gazing at He Bai. He passed Di Qiuhe by, obsessed with his camera. Di Qiuhe stood up with a smile and approached him. He stretched his remaining ice cream to He Bai’s face, asking: "If you behave well, I will
He Bai was shocked, staring at the pink strawberry-flavor ice cream, with a faint sneer hanging on his lips. He grabbed the ice cream and rubbed its package against Di Qiuhe’s face. He grinded his teeth, "Your childish behavior will buy you a punch sooner or later!"
"Then go ahead." Di Qiuhe allowed him to wet his face and threw back his shoulder, "I have a well-built body and will not be hurt, come on, punch me."
"There you go again." He Bai saw his forehead full of sweats and noticed the scorching weather, withdrew his hands and frowned. He brought out wet tissue from his camera bag and threw it in Di Qiuhe’s arms, waving: "Come on, go to my dormitory to enjoy the air condition. Why are you here? Want to see me for something? By the way, I cannot get through to your phone, why? I don’t know whether it’s your phone’s problem or mine. I cannot contact you anyway."
Di Qiuhe wore a smile, quite pleasant, "What, you miss me? I shut down the phone as I don’t want some annoying people find me. It won’t happen again."
"I would rather miss the pancake sold in the south gate than miss you." He Bai said and went ahead alone, and continued, "How is your training in the frontier province? Don’t mail me fruits, I cannot eat them up. And, you said in the message that my photographing job was stolen by Saint Elephant. They messed it up. You’d better call that elder man and don’t let him misunderstand you. I’ll fix it, I was careless this time…Why are you standing there still? Let’s go."
He turned back and found that Di Qiuhe didn’t follow him, and his eyebrows rose, "What’re you doing here? Need I carry you with eight sedan-chairs?"
Di Qiuhe lowered his head and smiled, waving at him, "Maybe next time. I’ve got a flight to catch tonight, gotta go. Don’t worry about Mr. Jia, I’ll help you fix it. My little puppy, on the Internet they all say I’m 23 now, but that’s nominal age. I’m turning 23 this September."
He Bai: "So?"
"When my birthday comes, I will make you willing to call me brother." Di Qiuhe announced with a big smile and waved his hand, striding away.
"What? Come back! Don’t leave!" He Bai was baffled and then tried to chase him, "You ungrateful brat have to piss me off every day, don’t you?"
Ultimately, he failed to catch the leggy Di Qiuhe. In a sweat, He Bai returned to the dormitory building, but was stopped by the supervisor of the building.
"You’ve got a package. A handsome boy wearing a hat delivered it here. I don’t know what it is. He doesn’t wear uniform or drive expressing car."
A big box was pressed on his chest. He Bai lowered his head and examined it and immediately recalled Di Qiuhe’s dress today. He smiled and thanked the supervisor, returning to his dorm.
"It’s so heavy, what is it?"
After turning on the air condition, he tore of the package with scissors and opened the box.
There were two boxes in it, a big one and a small one. He put down the scissors and checked the small one first. When he opened it, he was shocked.
Two phones lied in it. One was the same type as his old one, and the other was the Apxle’s newest phone, which was very expensive and perfect to show off.
"That guy…" He picked up the old one and turned it on familiarly. Then he was speechless, but eyes full of warmth, "I’ve told him it’s OK, he should have taken it serious…"
It took some time for an old phone to turn on, so he put it down and opened that bigger box.
A brand-new camera jumped into his eyes, the same type as the one Mr. Xu had lent him, but this one was the newest.
With hand on the box got stiffed, he didn’t know how to react.
‘What is he doing…’
Ding-dong, the old phone suddenly vibrated-a new message came.
He was dumbfounded and put down the box lid and picked up the new but also old phone.
He found that the operator was some telecommunication company and beside that was an unread message.
So, he clicked it open.
Brother Di: This is my new private number. This former one has become my working number, operated by my assistant. You can call this number to contact me. P.S.Sorry for the loss of your parents’ messages. As compensation, I’ve decided to use the same phone as you so that we can create sweet memories as your parents’.
Brother Di: Don’t be too touched. This is what a big brother should do.
He Bai was totally speechless, his mixed feeling about these expensive gifts disappearing instantly.
‘Sweet memories? Don’t be so touched? Big brother?’
Brother Di: My little Brother? Are you too surprised?
He Bai: Screw you! You can never be my big brother! And, my parents’ memories are about love, romantic love. Can our memories be the same as theirs? Totally different!
Brother: I don’t see any difference?
How dare him contradict me!
He Bai: I don’t see anything same?
Brother Di: Everything is the same.
He Bai’s face distorted with fury. The air condition was on, but his nose got sweaty. He Bai cannot help swearing: "Go screw our memories! We can create nothing but shit! You dumb idiot! It is the unluckiest thing for me to know you!"
