another life

04

Gossip is everywhere, and sometimes you should learn to bear it.

At noon, Feiyang's rest area is fairly quiet, everyone has their own schedule, coming and going, there will not be too many or too few people here.There are different styles of restaurants in the airport, so people who are flying may not necessarily patronize the internal restaurants in the rest area.

Fang Ruolin sat at a table near the door and ordered a cappuccino.Jialu is the ground handling officer, and she will be very busy when there are many passengers. She looked at her watch and saw that 15 minutes had passed.

"Sorry, I'm late." Jialu hurried over in a blue uniform, sat down and leaned on the chair, looking very tired.

"Busy?" Ruo Lin waved to the bar counter to indicate that it was time to serve.

Jia Lu looked unbearable and shook her head again and again: "For some reason, there are so many tour groups going to and from the Mainland today, I'm exhausted."

The waiter just came to deliver the meal, "Eat quickly, the curry and rice set meal I ordered for you, a cup of coffee has more milk and less sugar, is there anything wrong?"

"Ruo Lin, you really understand me." Jia Lu took a sip of coffee and grinned.

Fang Ruolin's lunch was also delivered quickly, and the two chatted while eating.

"You told me about the house last night?"

"Oh—you know, there was an accident at Yishan's house some time ago, and now she has officially returned to work as a ground worker. I think——let her come back to live, what do you think?" Although Jia Lu chatted with Ruo Lin Come, but she knows that Ruolin can't help everyone, besides, Yishan and Ruolin just know each other, she never likes to meddle in other people's business.

Ruo Lin listened to Jia Lu talk about Le Yishan while recalling in her mind, Le Yishan seemed to have been hit hard by the death of her parents, so she took a leave of absence without pay, and I heard that she just came back to work for a while.

In my impression, the original Fang Ruolin didn't have many friends, but now it's different, she doesn't mind helping others, and Jialu is her friend, so it doesn't matter if she does a little favor.

"Anyway, the room is free, and Yishan can move in whenever she needs it. It's up to you to decide. Why bother?"

Hearing Ruo Lin's cheerfulness, Jia Lu said with a smile, "That's great, she'll come later, you can tell her yourself."

"You still have an appointment with Yishan?" Ruolin asked.

"Anyway, we are friends, let's get in touch. By the way, do you want to consider moving back? I know you are used to living alone, but let's take care of each other."

"This—I'll think about it again."

Jialu had mentioned it before, but was rejected.Seeing that his friend finally let go, he persuaded him persistently: "Think carefully, there are many benefits to living with more people..."

If Fang Ruolin used to like a free and independent life, now Fang Ruolin likes the feeling of being cared for. She couldn't help teasing Jialu, "I will seriously consider it, but Jialu, you are almost becoming a housekeeper."

"You're laughing at me..." Jialu was about to 'retort her lips'.

"Gallo—"

Ruo Lin looked up and saw Le Yishan.

She was wearing the uniform of the ground crew, which gave people a very comfortable feeling.

"Yishan, come and sit down." Jialu greeted.

"It won't hinder you and Miss Fang, right?" Le Yishan's smiling expression was slightly stiff.

Le Yishan has been away from Hong Kong for a while, and Fang Ruolin has just returned from Rome. Although they knew each other before, but after such a long time, and Fang Ruolin's past style of handling things, it is normal for the other party to be a little reserved.

In Feiyang, for most people, Fang Ruolin has the initiative at any time, which is her strength and advantage.

"Long time no see, Yishan." Ruolin nodded politely, "Call me Ruolin."

"Okay, Ruolin." Yishan smiled and said sincerely, "I think Jialu has already told you that I want to rent your house, is it possible?"

"Of course it's OK, you can move in anytime." Then she looked at Jialu and asked, "Apart from Huiqi, is there anyone renting it now? I remember Ding Huihui..."

"You said Huihui, she should have called you when you were in Rome, but you didn't get a reply—" Jialu curled her lips, and I haven't agreed to her yet.

"It doesn't matter, if she wants to rent, just promise her."

"Okay, anyway, Hui Qi doesn't come back often, so let them live in one room."

……

Yishan's place of residence has been settled, Jialu is of course happy, and the topic of the house has also come to an end.The three women gathered together, chatting while eating, and the atmosphere was good.Ruolin thinks that Yishan is a worthy friend, and Ruolin's straightforwardness also wins Yishan's favor.

Fang Ruolin used to be indifferent and independent, but now Fang Ruolin doesn't want to be a loner.

"Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom." Ruolin got up.However, she didn't expect that she would have her first fight between women after returning to Feiyang in the bathroom.

It is often said that where there are people, there is right and wrong. Fang Ruolin deeply realized this in the women's bathroom, especially when she was the protagonist of gossip.In the past, Fang Ruolin was beautiful but ostentatious, capable and indifferent. She said what she did and said, never relaxed, and she would not spend an extra minute with people who had nothing to do with her. Therefore, a woman like her, in Feiyang Aviation In this circle where there are more women than men, the reputation has not been very good.

She hid in the cubicle and listened quietly to several administrative staff outside who commented on Fang Ruolin and said all kinds of harsh words.Gossip is not without reason. The memory in her mind tells her that Fang Ruolin was indeed involved in scandals in the past. Pilots, administrators, high-level executives of Feiyang head office, lawyers, doctors... She had many contacts, but they were all just for fun. Until she really fell in love with Situ.

In the bathroom cubicle, she really felt the test of the impact of ice and fire.Fang Ruolin kept telling herself that what those people were talking about was not her, and even if they were, it was just jealousy among women.For a moment, she really wanted to rush out, but she couldn't because her reason was still there.

"It's great now, when Rawniefang comes back, she will steal the limelight from everyone in the company again."

"I don't know why she went to Rome by herself, so silent, if it wasn't for the cover of the head office, Situ would have fired her long ago!"

"Maybe he was dumped by someone!"

"She was dumped? It would be best if it was true..."

The sound of laughter gradually disappeared, and after about 10 minutes——

After confirming that there was no one in the bathroom, Ruolin came out tiredly. She was sure that the voice she heard just now was not familiar to her, which meant that she had no chance to get in touch with these people. So where did all these secret gossips come from?Fortunately, Situ Xuan was not involved, otherwise, the problem might be serious enough for her to leave the company.

Fang Ruolin went back to the dining table and had a brief chat with Jialu and Yishan before leaving on the pretext that she needed to calm down now.

"Jialu, I don't think Ruolin is as difficult to get along with as the rumors say, she is quite a nice person. However, she didn't look very well when she left just now, could something happen?"

Jia Lu knew something about Ruolin, she didn't tell Esando, "She's so busy, maybe something really happened."

……

Ruolin didn't go back to her office, but turned to the airport for a walk.There is a lot of traffic in the airport, and even though there are people around, she still feels as if she is walking on a deserted road, alone.

"Ruolin, Ruolin!" Fang Ruolin looked around blankly, as if someone was calling her. "Here, here!"

Someone in the crowd not far away was waving, Fang Ruolin recognized it after a careful look, and walked over a few steps quickly, "Sister Jiamei!"

Xing Jiamei returned to Hong Kong a week ago to reunite with her ex-husband. Because Fang Ruolin also hurried back to Hong Kong, everyone forgot to leave her contact information at that time.

"Great, meeting you here." Xing Jiamei was very happy to see Ruolin, and quickly introduced the people around her, "Ruolin, this is my husband, Don Juan, Philip."

Fang Ruolin saw that their husband and wife had been holding hands, so they had a very good relationship. She didn't know why they separated in the first place, but it was a family matter, and she would never ask.

"Hello, Mr. Tang."

"Miss Fang is too polite, you are Jiamei's friend, just call me Philip."

"Philip, call me Ruolin."

"Stop being polite to each other." Xing Jiamei stared at the passenger exit while talking, "Oh, look, Ah Feng has come out."

Fang Ruolin looked at Xing Feng who walked out energetically pushing the suitcase, and temporarily let go of the irritability just now.

While pushing the suitcase, Xing Feng kept talking to the person in the pilot uniform beside him, and it seemed that he was arguing about something.

Seeing someone picking up the plane, Xing Feng ignored the pilot beside him, waved his arms desperately with a bright smile on his face, and then ran over pushing the suitcase.

"Sister." After Xing Feng came over and saw Fang Ruolin beside Xing Jiamei, he was very happy for a while and gave Ruolin a big hug. "It's great to see you again, Ruolin."

"Me too."

"Ahem! Sorry, I want to interrupt."

Xing Feng and Ruo Lin looked at the person who suddenly spoke.Tang Yichen, Feiyang's senior co-pilot, has a good reputation. Most importantly, Situ thinks highly of him.Although they are colleagues, Fang Ruolin is not familiar with him, so it can be said that they have nothing to do with each other.

"What do you want to do!" Xing Feng asked impatiently, frowning.

Fang Ruolin felt a little headache when she saw the family arguing with each other.It is obvious that Xing Feng and his nephew are not on the same page, more precisely, he does not like his sister's husband and son.But unlike Tang Yichen who clearly dislikes and endures, Philip is very tolerant towards Xing Feng, and even has the feeling of flattering him.

How strange, Ruo Lin secretly sighed, and decided to leave the rest of the time for their family.

but. . . . . . .

"I see it this way, can you take Ah Feng to dinner first?" Xing Jiamei's husband, Tang Juan, came out to smooth things over.

"Why should I listen to you, ex-brother-in-law."

Xing Jiamei glanced at her younger brother. "Ah Feng!"

"Ah, no, it's the current brother-in-law." Xing Feng said perfunctorily, "The three of you should enjoy your meal, and Ruolin and I will be together."

"Feng, I think you'd better go back to rest with Sister Jiamei first, why not another day..."

Fang Ruolin really didn't want to get involved in this family dispute, but Xing Feng made up his mind to entrust her into the water.He put his backpack in the suitcase, "Let's go, I'm not tired at all."

Xing Jiamei didn't want to make matters worse and had to agree, but told Xing Feng to go back early.Ruo Lin's work for the afternoon has been arranged, and she has time to take Xing Feng around.

It's just that they didn't go far, when Tang Yichen chased him up from behind, "Miss Fang, do you mind talking to you alone?"

Ruolin glanced at Xing Feng, it was inevitable that there would be another dispute between the uncle and nephew, so she quickly responded: "Of course."

They distanced themselves from Xing Feng, Tang Yichen thought about it, and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Fang, I need to trouble you to take care of me—little uncle."

"It should be, Ah Feng is also my friend." In view of Tang Yichen's stern words, Fang Ruolin had no choice but to answer politely.

"The situation in my family is a bit complicated, so I really hope that Miss Fang will not mention it too much to others, thank you."

Tang Yichen was also phrasing his words while speaking, hoping not to make the other party misunderstand what he meant.However, Fang Ruolin still misunderstood.

If in normal times, considering that Tang Yichen is rigorous and sensible, his family's situation is really special, and Xing Feng's personality is out of character, Fang Ruolin can definitely understand Tang Yichen's meaning.But when she heard those words in the bathroom, it was at a sensitive time, Tang Yichen's words immediately reminded her of her own reputation in the company, and suddenly, she felt angry.

"I don't know why you think I'm a casual gossip, sorry, I think we've talked enough, let's stop here."

Fang Ruolin turned away sullenly, leaving behind Tang Yichen with an innocent face.

Xing Feng followed Ruo Lin and felt her obvious displeasure, and asked, "Did my nephew say something? If so, please tell me. I will help you teach him as an elder."

When Xing Feng said this, Ruolin wanted to laugh instead, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing, let's go, Feiyang is very big, enough for an afternoon of shopping."

"Okay."
