Chapter 206
During the summer vacation of my freshman year, when I was about to enter my sophomore year, I published my first book, "Rainland".
Even I can’t believe that many of the articles in the novel are things I wrote down in a brown notebook when I was bored during my freshman year. Before I inserted those manuscripts and paragraphs into the novel, I I always thought it would stay in that notebook forever.
However, now they are about to be printed.
Word by word, page by page, it appears in front of readers across the country.
In the next two weeks, I had no time to think about anything else. The previous week, something happened on my laptop that was similar to a vulgar plot in a TV series, where the heroine was secretly poisoned, etc., and I He plays the image of a weakling very well.
After a week, I forgot all about it.
I kept revising, sorting, and editing my articles until I could see that the whole article was smooth, without any language errors or words that made people feel disgusted when reading. I even worked on this until two or three o'clock at night, and Wen Jichen Everyone was amazed that I could finally take one thing so seriously.
At four o'clock in the morning, I looked at the time in the lower right corner of the laptop screen.
I have completely sorted out the first 150,000 words of the manuscript of the novel "Rain Country". I tiredly moved the mouse and sent all the manuscripts to the editor's mailbox.
After stretching, I felt a severe pain in my neck, as if the whole bone was about to fall apart.
I was so tired that I climbed into bed and fell asleep without touching the quilt.
Wen Jichen is also very busy every day. Seeing that I am devoted to the publication of the novel every day, he can rest assured to work. At the end of the day, we often only talk a few words while eating, and the rest of the time, we are like two people. A male and a female working machine, living a regular life.
For my first published novel, the royalties I received were only 7,000 yuan.
This was undoubtedly a blow to me. I always had the illusion that I was selling my biological son at a low price. Therefore, after I got the money, I even got angry with my telephone editor for a whole day. Two weeks later, until my sophomore year of college started, I answered the 128th call my editor made to me in the past half month.
After school started, I stayed at school during the day and went home at night, just like last semester.
I am willing to go back to Wen Jichen's apartment. On the one hand, I am worried about my own safety. More importantly, my father and mother moved back to Beijing after the second semester of my sophomore year, and Wen Jichen and I have fewer opportunities.
In fact, all along, the two of us have tacitly avoided this problem.
I have been in love with him for several years, will we have a future?
Will he marry me?
Who will he marry?
Who will be his eventual marriage partner?
Questions like these are like the most sensitive and untouchable parts of my brain that are prone to soreness. When I think of these, I feel that life is extremely dark, and then I feel a burst of angina pectoris.
I believe the same is true for Wen Jichen.
What we have a tacit understanding is that in the unknown future, pain is inevitable, but we don’t know the time. Therefore, we always cherish the time together.
School has started, and the hot summer still lingers for a long time. It is September, and Beijing is still like a melting pot. The fiery sun is scorching everyone on the earth who is running for life. It always catches people when they least expect it. , spitting out a large ball of flames, burning the young people who still have dreams under the scorching sun into ashes.
Therefore, in their lives, there is nothing but waiting and pain.
Since Lin Haonan and Andy officially announced their relationship, we have rarely seen them. Even when we came back from Hong Kong, we have not seen them until now.
Wang Yanxi and Gu Beicheng were still the same as before, flirting and quarreling. When the quarrel went too far, Wang Yanxi came to me to cry, and Gu Beicheng went to Wen Jichen to say bad things about Wang Yanxi.
The difference is that Potato Chip Girl has completely changed.
Her originally plump arms were now as thin as green onions, and her thick double chin was now a sharp awl. Even her waist, which she felt most inferior to, could not help but feel full.
I was amazed at that time.
What kind of inhuman treatment did she experience to become what she is today?
And now, under the shade of the trees on campus, she is trotting towards me with great interest.
"Liu Xiangsi~~Long time no see!" She was wearing a yellow floral dress and a pair of crystal sandals, looking particularly pure and cute.
"Yo yo yo, look at you, beauty." I hugged the book and circled around the potato chip girl, and couldn't help laughing and teasing her.
Potato Chip Girl didn't show the slightest humility in response to my compliments. On the contrary, she focused on Andy: "How about it! Will Andy like me like this?" She held up the hem of her skirt and stood on tiptoes.
Turned around slightly.
I looked at her slender figure and couldn't help but frown slightly.
I always feel that...she is a little abnormally thin.
…
Seeing the pretty face of Potato Chip Girl, I shook my head.
Forget it, don't think so much, this is a good thing.
I hugged the book and lowered my head, thinking about whether I should tell Potato Chip Girl that Andy was with Lin Haonan. Looking at the smile on Potato Chip Girl's face, I thought about it, I have to rescue this girl. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. "Actually..." I hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Potato Chip Girl was still smiling, but she didn't look like her anymore.
"Actually, Andy is gay." I paused for a while and said with my eyes closed.
If you don't tell her that she is deeply infatuated, it will be really ruined.
The smile on Potato Chip Girl's face suddenly stopped immediately after my words. It was like a clock that had been running for many years. The moment the magnetic field disappeared, the hour and minute hands were suspended at that position forever, unable to move.
She was stunned for a while, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up again: "Are you kidding me?"
I looked at her seriously, slowly pursed my thin lips, trying to figure out what to say.
"He can't be... He's very good to me, and he's really nice to girls. You've known him for a long time, and you know that. He's a gentleman, gentle, and considerate... He..." Potato Chip Girl didn't wait.
As I spoke, I started to mutter some random words, but my eyes were wandering, as if someone had drained my mind.
"It's true... you are so beautiful now, there is no need to focus on him. He is like this to every girl. He is always polite and considerate, but keeps a distance." I looked at the potato chip girl and was a little confused.
Face, the delicate little face completely lost the smile just now.
"Then... then why am I still working so hard... Liu Xiangsi, do you know how much it cost me to become like this... In other words, no matter what I am now, he can't like me
?" Potato Chip Girl's eyes suddenly turned red, and she asked me one question after another in a low voice, as if she had done something wrong.
I opened my mouth and suddenly couldn't bear to see her like this.
