Chapter 677 677. Post-it Note Girl (Part 1)
It was 8:30 in the evening, long past the time to get off work, but in an office in an office building in Taiwan, the lights were already on.
A girl had just finished processing the last document, completing tasks that belonged to her and more tasks that did not belong to her. Feeling the pain in her back, she could finally stretch her body ‘wantonly’.
The girl’s name was Li Xinyi.
The name Xinyi was very common in Taiwan. Like Xiuqin, Xiuying, Yulan, and Yijun, it was a strong competitor for the most repeated names of girls in Taiwan.
If she had a special surname, she might have looked more special, but unfortunately she had the big surname Li. As a result, from childhood to adulthood, there would always be girls with the same name as her in the class. At the most exaggerated time, there were five girls in the same class named Xinyi.
The name Li Xinyi was very common, and her appearance was also very ordinary.
She was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and had an ordinary face that was not beautiful but also ugly. If you met her for the first time, it would be difficult to find any shining points in her.
She has been like a little transparent since she was a child.
When she was a child, her parents always loved her older brother and younger brother at home, and she was always the one who was ignored.
After work, her colleagues rarely thought of her except for asking her for help with work. Even when going to KTV, she was always squeezed in the corner, and the microphone seemed to never be her turn.
She felt that she would only have a little sense of existence when she was asked to do something, so she never knew how to refuse other people's help. Gradually, all the employees in the company knew that there was a staff member named Li Xinyi, and if there was anything to do, they could just tell her to do it.
In the end, even some new juniors in the company began to tell her to do it, in the name of helping newcomers, but in fact, they would just throw away their work and bully Li Xinyi to accept it.
As a result, Li Xinyi's workload doubled every day, and her time to get off work was getting later and later.
Li Xinyi lives this kind of life numbly every day, but for her, life is not completely gray. The more obscure she is, the more she yearns for people who are like the sun. Searching and chasing stars has become a hobby that Li Xinyi rarely sticks to in her daily life, and the more popular the star is, the more attention she will get, such as Nie Wei.
Li Xinyi first wanted to know Nie Wei from "New Police Story". Before that, she only had the impression of hearing the name of this very handsome boy.
But after watching that movie, she was deeply fascinated by Nie Wei.
Because in that movie, Nie Wei was obviously just a villain, but he had such a strong sense of presence, really like the sun, covering up the light of all the stars in the play.
Anyway, after watching that movie, the most profound memory in her mind was the handsome boy who was like a devil in a tuxedo, a white shirt, and red gloves, as well as his crazy smile, desperate roar, and the last child-like tears of grievance.
After leaving the cinema and wiping away tears, Li Xinyi, a fan of all things, became a fan of Nie Wei.
She began to frantically collect information about Nie Wei, watch the works Nie Wei had filmed, and track Nie Wei's schedule information. As long as Nie Wei had a new work on the market, she would definitely support it. Even if it was a newspaper with a report about Nie Wei, she would buy it and collect it. For this reason, she even spent one-third of her monthly salary on this, but she was still happy with it.
Because in her heart, Nie Wei was the big sun she was looking for.
Li Xinyi liked Nie Wei silently and paid attention to all his dynamics. In order to catch up with the premiere of Nie Wei's TV series today, she even worked overtime for two consecutive days, and finally finished her work before the premiere of "Fated to Love You".
She stretched her body, quickly sorted out the office documents, and then rushed to the bus station. At this time, she could still take the last bus home.
Li Xinyi calculated the time very accurately. The traffic conditions were also very good at night, and there were no accidents. After getting off the bus, she went to the supermarket near the rental house to buy some snacks, and then returned to her cabin with anticipation.
Li Xinyi's salary naturally couldn't afford to rent a whole house. She lived in a three-bedroom and one-living room house, which was rented to three people by the landlord. The three people shared the room equally.
Originally, Li Xinyi was the first resident, but now she lives in the only room in the house that is shaded. There is no need to think about the reason. Even if she is unwilling in her heart, she still can't refuse the requests of other residents.
Opening the door, a woman in the living room was applying a facial mask. Seeing Li Xinyi enter the house without even saying hello, Li Xinyi didn't care. This is already a very common thing.
As usual, Li Xinyi first returned to her cabin to turn on the computer, then went to the bathroom to wash her face with cold water to drive away the fatigue brought by overtime work. When she returned to the house, the computer had been started. Li Xinyi directly logged into the live broadcast software on the computer and found Zhongtian Entertainment Channel.
At this time, there were only five minutes left before the TV series started.
During these five minutes, Li Xinyi did not wait foolishly, but opened the webpage and logged into Nie Wei's blog fan club. There were many users from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and even overseas, and everyone gathered here because they liked Nie Wei.
Reading the posts here every day and communicating with everyone to share Nie Wei's advice was Li Xinyi's happiest time.
As she expected, because Nie Wei's new idol drama is about to be aired, the fan club is particularly active at the moment. Many people are waiting for the airing, and posts about the TV drama are being discussed one after another.
"Listening to Nie Wei's interview, I felt very curious. How tangled a character can be for a hateful and cute person?"
"Whatever, as long as it's Nie Wei's role, I like it."
"Anyway, I haven't seen Nie Wei act in an idol drama for a long time. I'm really looking forward to it."
“I watched the trailer and it mentioned ‘post-it girl’ many times. What does that mean?”
"You'll know in five minutes. If you ask now, we don't know."
Li Xinyi is actually very curious about what the Post-it Girl means. She has watched the trailer many times, but she has never had a detailed explanation of the Post-it Girl.
Li Xinyi just browsed the posts, thinking wildly, and the five minutes passed quickly.
"Broadcast for you immediately, I am destined to love you." A familiar voice sounded. After Li Xinyi heard it, she quickly closed the fan club and switched to the screen of the live broadcast software.
"The essential oil of the Bulgarian rose was all dripping on the hand he had just taken me, and it was running wild. My heart was like a dodge ball. Who knows how long love can stay in your hand..."
Listening to the opening song, Li Xinyi had a sweet smile on her face. Because the melody of this song was very sweet and the lyrics were even sweeter, Li Xinyi couldn't help but feel like she wanted to fall in love. But as soon as she had this emotion, she I almost fell into despair again. How could anyone appreciate my little transparency?
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." A voice that sounded familiar yet unfamiliar woke Li Xinyi out of her self-pity. When she focused her attention on the screen again, her eyes began to open unconsciously. big.
On the screen, I saw a white-collar man wearing glasses, an old-fashioned hairstyle, and a white shirt and mid-length skirt. It was as if Li Xinyi saw herself. This is the most common dress she wears at work on weekdays. .
Wearing glasses is not because of myopia, but because of lack of self-confidence. Having a pair of eyes blocking other people's sight will give her a sense of security.
She also wanted to have beautiful hair, but that would take time. She was busy from morning to night, so how could she have time to take care of herself? She even worked overtime on weekends, and she had forgotten the last time she went shopping leisurely.
As for the simple and popular dress, one is because of the working environment, and the other is because of the above two reasons. Anyway, how does Li Xinyi see the girl in the play, why does she feel like her own shadow, especially the things this girl does and her attitude towards people? , just like how she looks at work on weekdays.
"There must be this kind of person around you. She is obviously not a little girl, but she helps everyone run errands. She is obviously very busy, but she never dares to refuse other people's requests, because, ah, she is very ordinary. Not only is she ordinary in appearance and personality, even her name is ordinary enough..."
"Chen Xinyi is the number one name in the wet market. Her existence is like a sticky note. It is very convenient. You can throw it away after using it. It comes and goes when you call it. It does not take up space and lasts forever. Quiet…"
Li Xinyi almost bit her lip after watching the self-introduction of the heroine Chen Xinyi. Looking at the girl whose body was covered with post-it notes in the picture, Li Xinyi suddenly had a feeling for this heroine who had the same name as herself. A feeling of sympathy for each other.
Normally, she would just tolerate it, but when she saw the heroine in the TV series being shouted at, Li Xinyi actually felt a sense of anger in her heart.
This was the epitome of her daily life. She really didn't live up to expectations. Li Xinyi felt very sad and curled up, as if this could give herself a little warm feeling and make her feel better.
Then the heroine Chen Xinyi's memories of her transparent past in the TV series also gave Li Xinyi a lot of sense of empathy. She was the kind of innocent person who was ignored at home, which was even more tragic than Chen Xinyi's experience in the TV series.
Chen Xinyi has at least two sisters in her family, and her relatives are her elder brother and younger brother. Not only do they not take her to play with them, they always bully her. The elderly at home are also somewhat patriarchal, which makes her even more neglected by the family.
Even because of her more tragic childhood experience, Li Xinyi was somewhat envious of the heroine Chen Xinyi in the TV series. At least the heroine had a father who loved her.
But soon, Li Xinyi felt that her envious thoughts were a little funny. The heroine was obviously very miserable, but she was still envious. Sure enough, she was still worse off.
Smiling self-deprecatingly, Li Xinyi continued to watch the development of the story.
The next plot was somewhat beyond Li Xinyi's expectations. One of the most handsome employees in the company suddenly paid attention to Chen Xinyi. The sentence "The post-it girl is so cute" not only said that Chen Xinyi's heartbeat was racing on the TV, but also on the screen. Li Xinyi outside also felt her heartbeat speeding up.
The feeling of being suddenly watched by the sun is what Li Xinyi looks forward to the most and what she dreams of the most. In reality, she has a crush on a very dazzling boy in the company, but unfortunately, she doesn't even have the courage to say hello to him, let alone confess her love to him. When she sees the boy, she will subconsciously hide far away, and then like a frightened little rabbit, she will secretly watch the boy's back disappear in the corner, and then show a regretful and remorseful expression.
Now think about it, she is really vulgar.
"I can't do it, I hope you can realize your wish." Li Xinyi quickly placed her hope on Chen Xinyi, who was hit on the head by the "pie" in the TV series.
After all, this boy looks gentle and dazzling, and he will notice the inconspicuous Chen Xinyi, and even have a good impression of the heroine.
Is this the template of the male protagonist?
But she soon thought of it. The male lead is Nie Wei. Could it be the male second? Indeed, the male second in idol dramas is usually very gentle. But when she thought about it again, the male second seems to be Cheng Kun. How can this actor be as handsome as Cheng Kun?
Just as she was still thinking, a burst of anger suddenly erupted from her heart like a volcano, because this boy was very graceful in front of the heroine, but he turned into another face and said bad things about Chen Xinyi at the same time.
Especially after confirming his relationship with the heroine, he was still ambiguous with other female colleagues in the company. The heroine just expressed her dissatisfaction, but he gave a bunch of reasons, full of sophistry, and even threatened Chen Xinyi to break up. Looking at Chen Xinyi who was submissive in the TV series, Li Xinyi once again felt hatred for her usual self.
This should not be the reaction of a normal person. It is too humble and cowardly. How disgusting should she be in her daily life?
At this moment, Li Xinyi hated herself for not having courage. She was angry and worried about what the heroine in the play would do if she met such a scumbag.
"Break up with him, don't let yourself down." Seeing Chen Xinyi preparing to spend a lot of money to invite this bad guy Gucci to go on a yacht, Li Xinyi resisted in her heart, and even wanted to refuse for Chen Xinyi and give the bad guy a slap.
But she also had a deep sense of identity. Maybe if she became Chen Xinyi, she would be more humble than her. After all, she was suddenly illuminated by the dazzling sunlight and suddenly became less transparent. This slight opportunity is worth fighting for her most precious thing, so she has to seize it, right?
