The English teacher and the slutty-minded guy didn't want to go out for a midnight snack. After taking a shower and washing his hair, Li Heng put the pillow on his waist and back, leaning halfway against the head of the bed to examine his every move after coming to Beijing...
This is a habit he developed when he was a civil servant. Every time he encountered it, he would take time to reflect on whether there were any inappropriate things in his actions today.
Although the relationship between him and Chen Zijin is already like this, he should have visited the Chen family. But when he thought of the Chen family's sister-in-law treating his mother, he could only stop.
Thinking about the relationship between Chen and Li families, he couldn't help but think of a sentence: The most difficult thing in this world is the human heart.
Advance more and retreat more will lead to an imbalance in the relationship, and even if he is a human being for two lives, he will feel tricky.
After reflecting on today's actions, he began to continue to conceive his next novel.
"Living" made him famous overnight, but the next novel is even more important to him. After all, if the divine character is first established, it will collapse if it is not stable. It will remind people of hurting Zhongyong, which will make many people who "destroy him" gloat, and will make people laugh at the eyes of "Harvest" magazine and Mr. Ba.
Will you even question whether the royalties are appropriate?
In order to effectively fight back against the public opinion storm about royalties outside, he had to slap hard in the face with his hard power. So whether it is for himself, to live up to Mr. Ba's love, or to not disappoint those who support him, he must be cautious in the next novel and continue to maintain a high level.
What to write?
The shadows of several novels flashed through my heart, and I was struggling with each other. The night was already deep and I gradually fell asleep.
…
the next day.
As soon as he woke up, the English teacher had already knocked on his door.
Wang Runwen, who was outside the door, hugged his chest with his hands: "Wash up quickly, Chen Zijin and his daughter are here."
Li Heng turned around and the sky outside: "It's already here?"
Wang Runwen said: "It's almost done. I saw the three of them by the window just now."
“Three?”
"There is also Chen Xiaomi who came to No. 1 Middle School last time."
"Oh, okay, thank you teacher."
After saying that, although Li Heng was puzzled why Chen Xiaomi came, he still quickly entered the bathroom and started brushing his teeth and rinsing his mouth.
The English teacher thought about it and followed it into the door, tidied up his messy bed slightly, and then opened the window to let the fresh air outside penetrate.
After doing all this, she quickly left and returned to her room, with the intention of not wanting the Chen family to misunderstand.
Although the English teacher has always been cold in verbally, she still has a deep understanding of her sexy and plump figure. Many men like to take a few more glances. If they appear in Li Heng's house early in the morning, many things will be difficult to explain.
After a while, Chen Zijin appeared outside the door and began to knock on the door.
"Li Heng."
"Hey, here we come."
Li Heng hurriedly wiped his hair, but opened the door of the room but found that Chen Zijin was standing outside the door alone.
Looking at each other, she smiled and said, "Dad and my sister-in-law are here, waiting in the lobby downstairs. I'm afraid your room is in chaos, so I didn't let them come up."
"Those who know me are my wife."
Li Heng happily pulled her into the door, and kissed her for a long time as the door was closed. It took him a long time to let go: "I haven't seen you overnight, and my wife's mouth has become a little sweeter."
"Good mouth and smooth tongue." Chen Zijin liked this romantic interaction with small surprises at all times, and then urged him: "Check it out quickly and follow me downstairs."
Li Heng pointed to the clean and tidy bed, and said without blushing, "I've already done it when I want to have breakfast with you."
Chen Zijin was a little surprised. He has known this man for more than ten years. When did he be so particular? Apart from his own hygiene and bathing, aren’t other things placed at will?
Could it be that the year I left him has changed a lot?
Surprised, but she didn't think much about it, and then asked: "Is the English teacher next door? I haven't seen her for a long time, so I'll call her."
Li Heng opened his bag and counted the amount of money and the items he carried with him:
"Okay, go call the teacher, I'll wake up. Don't let your uncle and the others wait for a long time."
The two divided the work, one entered the English teacher's room, and the other shouted to open Zhang Zhiyong's door.
"Teacher, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are still as beautiful as you." Due to Li Heng, Chen Zijin has always had a good relationship with the English teacher and occasionally goes with her to have a meal.
The two girls are not unfamiliar, and they can even be called very familiar.
"Zi Jin is here, come in and sit for a while, I'll put on makeup." The English teacher puts on makeup every day when he goes out.
She doesn't like heavy makeup, she likes light makeup that is invisible at a glance.
According to her words, although people are old, they must live a refined life.
After learning makeup techniques from college best friend Yu Shuheng, she has retained the habit of light makeup over the years.
"Okay." Chen Zijin was born beautiful, but she also watched the teacher draw eyebrows and powder noodles with interest. As she looked at her, she suddenly swept the teacher's bed from the corner of her eyes.
With just a moment, she was stunned.
How is the same?
Why is Li Heng's bedding sorting method the same as the teacher's bedding sorting method? Even the quilts are placed in the same place. Could it be the same person's work?
Thinking of Li Heng’s past life habits, was it the bed that the teacher helped him make?
She was startled by her thought, but she was still stable.
Because she felt that she was thinking too much, which one of Xiao Han or Song Yu was not a beauty in the world? She was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen. Even if he was fickle, he should be those two, not teachers.
Besides, the English teacher has always taken good care of him. He brought him breakfast from time to time in the first and second year of high school, and gave him some English training. He even occasionally asked him to have dinner with him.
Recalling the generous and unpretentious English teachers in the past, Chen Zijin suppressed the last trace of doubts, and later came to the window, looking out, looking at the direction he was coming.
I just saw the English teacher standing here for a while while riding a bicycle. Did I just call Li Heng to get up and help make the bed because I saw myself and my father and my sister-in-law came?
Li Heng's window was closed before, but when he arrived downstairs, it opened. He had washed up in a short time. It should be like this: he was afraid that his father and his sister-in-law would see the chaotic scene, so the English teacher helped him make the bed.
A few minutes later, the English teacher put the eyebrow pencil and other items into his bag, and said to Chen Zijin who was smiling at him, "Let's go, Zhang Zhiyong should have done it too."
"Okay." Chen Zijin responded and followed Wang Runwen out of the room.
It happened that at this time, Li Heng and Zhang Zhiyong also appeared in the aisle and were about to come and call out to two girls.
"I'm not careful, I haven't seen you for a long time. You're still so slick." Chen Zijin took the initiative to say hello.
"Sister-in-law." Although Zhang Zhiyong is often awkward and often fights with Yang Yingwen when he was a child, he is always a little afraid of Chen Zijin. Seeing her is like a mouse and seeing a cat, he is very well-behaved every time.
This should be called one thing to subdue another thing.
The four of them were joking and down to the first floor, and Li Heng walked towards Chen Gaoyuan.
"Good morning, uncle, I didn't expect you to come early in the morning. I also discussed with Zijin to find an opportunity to visit you."
Talking about people and talking about ghosts is a necessary survival skill that every mature man must learn. Although the other party may have learned that he does not want to go to the Chen family for a short time, he still needs to give him enough respect verbally.
Chen Gaoyuan had an amiable smile on his face and said, "I heard Zijin say you are here last night. I will come with you today. How does it feel like when I came to Beijing for the first time? Are you still used to it?"
Li Heng replied: "Uncle, although this is my first time in the capital, I have been longing for it for a long time and I am still used to everything, which is better than expected."
This sentence reminded Chen Xiaomi of the novel "The Stubborn Lord" with a strong Beijing flavor. She thought that Li Heng's words were true. She must have read many books on the local cultural customs of the capital.
After a few greetings, both parties introduced them. In fact, they knew each other, mainly to introduce the English teacher.
The breakfast was a treat from Chen Gaoyuan, and it was also the way he led him. He ate it from a nearby old brand.
There was no politeness at the dinner table. Chen Gaoyuan, who was born in a rural family, was very understanding. He put down his official airs and got along with the few people. He especially asked Li Heng a lot, as if he looked at his son-in-law.
This change surprised Li Heng secretly.
Although Uncle Chen has always been gentle to himself in his previous life, he has to be so kind to him from the bottom of his heart that he will have to be a few years later in his previous life.
The great success of the novel "Living" in this life and the identity of the writer seem to have pushed the acceleration button between each other, directly making Uncle Chen's treatment of him the highest.
In fact, what Li Heng didn't know was that the reason why Chen Gaoyuan treated him like this today was not only because of Li Heng's own success and his identity as a writer, but also because of Mr. Chen's words last night.
Especially with the meaningful five words "Let your little sister give it to you", Chen Gaoyuan tasted many things that were different from the past.
Of course, Chen Zijin was the one who had the happiest meal.
My father is here, my sweetheart is here, and my sister-in-law who has always hated Li Heng in the past has also come. All of this seems to be showing something: after a dark ice period, my relationship with Li Heng seems to have ushered in a major turning point.
Do you think she really doesn’t love her mother?
Do you think she really wants to go against her family?
Not!
She cares too much about her family, so she fights against her family, with the purpose of hoping to get their blessings.
If her heart became weak and completely cold, she would definitely treat it with indifference, even if she had a word of talking to her mother, she would be considered a loss.
Now, everything is developing well, and Chen Zijin's mood is inexplicably open, which is directly reflected at the dining table, helping everyone serve vegetables and pouring water, and smilingly takes care of everyone's emotions on the table. He doesn't even feel any neglect. He looks like a mistress.
While having dinner, Chen Xiaomi took out a copy of "Alive" and handed it to Li Heng:
"This single book was bought out of your own pocket. I have read it twice. There are also his thought notes on it. He said he loves reading your books very much and asked you to sign an account as a souvenir."
As she said that, she also handed him a pen.
Li Heng was a little flattered and happily took over the pen and signed the writer's name.
Chen Xiaomi reminded: "Your real name may be more useful."
Li Heng scandalized his eyes and wrote his real name on it.
Seeing this, Chen Xiaomi took out two more books, one "Living" and the other "Letter to Zeng Guofan".
She said: "This "Zeng Guofan's Letter" is my favorite of the old man, and he asked me to hand it over to you."
Li Heng knew about this book. When he saw Mr. Chen in his previous life, he would hold him and flip him over it for a while if he had anything to do, but he didn't expect that he would fall on himself in this life.
He took the book and said thank you sincerely.
Chen Xiaomi nodded, and then said, "This book "Alive" is mine. I have read it 5 times. As a reader, I admire your talent very much. You can sign it for me."
Hearing this, Chen Gaoyuan looked at his younger sister several times.
But Chen Zijin was stunned.
Last night, my sister-in-law said she regretted treating Li Heng like she used to. She admired him for being able to turn the tables against the wind and admired his genius.
But that's just private!
I didn't know that my sister-in-law would make such a big noise today, and she actually put the words into practice and publicly revealed them to Li Heng, in front of her father and herself, in front of her English teacher and intimidating.
How brave does this take for a younger sister who is more proud than a peacock?
What does this mean?
Isn’t this apologizing to Li Heng directly?
Even though there is no word about "apology" between the lines, everyone can see Chen Xiaomi's attitude, so who can't tell the difference?
Look, Zhang Zhiyong's mouth was wider than a toad, and his eyes were opened to his mind. He was very shocked! How shocked you would be!
When the English teacher heard Li Heng mention the dirty things of the two families, he glanced at Li Heng, Chen Xiaomi, Li Heng, and Chen Xiaomi, smiling slightly, feeling very relieved inside.
To be honest, Li Heng was also a little surprised.
No, he was quite surprised!
In his previous life, even though his net worth was nearly 100 million yuan and his bank deposits were as high as tens of millions, Chen Xiaomi had never looked at him, and never gave him any good face.
But now, the identity of a great writer and literati directly conquered Chen Xiaomi and directly made her change 180 degrees.
Even though this apology is tactful, for a mature adult, doing so in front of his family has almost given up all his pride.
this.
Who the hell is going to ask for this to be reasonable?
At this moment, Li Heng felt a lot of accomplishment in his bad taste, but his heart was also quite complicated.
Perhaps, in the eyes of big families like them, tens of millions are nothing, and it is worthless to compare with the identity of a writer.
Under the gaze of everyone, Li Heng and Chen Xiaomi looked at each other for two seconds, and then took "Living" from her hands with a smile. "I didn't expect that my sister-in-law also likes to read my books. Is it really a surprise, and I have written my real name?"
This "sister" made Chen Gaoyuan smile warmly.
He had noticed it. When he met in the hotel just now, Li Heng just forced a smile to his younger sister. Even if he said hello, he should be more perfunctory and more perfunctory.
Now, after the little sister took the initiative to admit her mistake and show her goodwill, Li Heng was no longer petty and followed Zijin and called out to his aunt.
In fact, this little girl Li Heng was not particularly willing, unless the other apologized to his mother one day.
Seeing Li Heng calling him a little sister-in-law, Chen Xiaomi's tense heart relaxed, and she was afraid that the other party would not give her a way out, which would be a little embarrassed.
Although she regretted it in the past, she still couldn't stand it and showed goodwill to Li Heng. The reason why she was able to take the initiative to apologize to Li Heng tactfully today was actually inspired by the old man.
The old man specifically pointed out that she would send a book in person as a gift. Isn’t this an excellent opportunity to shake hands with Li Heng?
Based on her understanding of the old man, the old man definitely has this meaning, so she simply took the initiative.
Fortunately, Li Heng was smart enough, and he must have understood the old man's meaning and gave himself face.
Chen Xiaomi smiled and said, "The real name is worth the price, and of course you have to sign it."
The dragon and the phoenix dance, Li Heng wrote his real name and the writer's pseudonym.
After sending the book and autographs, the atmosphere on the dining table ushered in a climax. Even Chen Xiaomi, who had not participated in the chat just now, became a little more enthusiastic and helped her niece entertain the English teacher.
Chen Gaoyuan asked Li Heng: "How is the college entrance examination? Where do you fill in your first choice?"
Li Heng said truthfully: "I feel that the exam is OK, I can fill in my first choice in Peking University."
Chen Gaoyuan glanced at his happy daughter and nodded, "It's great. Come to the house with Zijin more often."
Li Hengxin said that he might not be able to pass the exam, but he would like to agree verbally.
When the meal was over, Chen Xiaomi suddenly asked him, "Listen to Zijin, you have only been in the capital for 4 days?"
Li Heng said: "I still have something to go to Gansu."
Chen Xiaomi calculated the day, "That's to leave on the 21st, when will it leave on the 21st? Have you bought the ticket?"
Li Heng said: "Yesterday, the teacher and Zhiyong had already bought train tickets, and the train was at 8 am."
Seeing that they had bought train tickets, Chen Xiaomi suppressed the idea of ​​helping them buy air tickets and said, "That night on the 20th, let's have a meal together.
I know a very famous old Chinese doctor. He has a plaster for treating the spine. I will ask for some in the past two days, and you will take it back then. But."
Having said that, she paused and suggested: "However, if you can bring Brother Jianguo to Beijing for medical treatment, the effect will be better. If there is any need, I can arrange it for you."
These words surprised everyone present again, including Li Heng.
This woman has courage!
If you don’t do it, don’t do it. Once you do it, you will just shout together with your apology to Li Jianguo and Tian Rune. You will still use this huge tempting method of treating Li Jianguo, which hits the Li family’s weakness in one go.
Chen Zijin asked with concern: "My sister-in-law, can Uncle Li recover if he seeks medical treatment on the spot?"
Chen Xiaomi and Chen Gaoyuan looked at each other and pondered: "I dare not say too much. The actual condition can only be concluded after the diagnosis.
But don’t worry, this old Chinese doctor is very famous in the capital, and most people don’t have the chance to see him.”
Chen Gaoyuan also said to Li Heng at this time: "I probably know who the younger sister is talking about. She and the old Chinese doctor's granddaughter are alumni best friends, which is indeed much more convenient in this regard."
Damn, this is a bare sugar-coated cannonball!
My father, who had been born in the past, completely collapsed due to this disease. He saw many doctors and went to many hospitals but it was ineffective and left early.
It is related to life and death, and Li Heng cannot refuse at once and said seriously: "I'll go back and discuss with them."
When leaving the old-fashioned breakfast shop and leaving, Chen Xiaomi suddenly asked: "Li Heng, do you have any plans for your next novel?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Gaoyuan, Chen Zijin, the English teacher and Zhang Zhiqiang looked at him at the same time.
Seeing Chen Xiaomi looking expectant, Li Heng shook his head, "At present, there is only a rough outline, and it has not been confirmed yet."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaomi looked at him like a demon. She was just asking a tentative question just now, without much hope.
After all, it is not so easy for a writer to write a novel. It takes a long time to complete a process such as inspiration, material, conception and details.
There are many writers who even spend three or five years or even longer to make a work. How could they be as productive as Li Heng?
Li Heng is now like a delicious meal. Chen Xiaomi stared at him and wanted to say something. She really wanted to ask him what topic is the new novel?
When to start writing?
Do you intend to submit it to a new magazine?
Should I hand it over to Harvest magazine and so on?
Many questions suddenly popped up in my mind, but Chen Xiaomi finally restrained the urge to take a bite of this huge hot commodity, and understood that now was not the time.
On the way back, Chen Gaoyuan saw that his younger sister was silent and couldn't help asking: "What? Are you still thinking about Li Hengxin's novel?"
Chen Xiaomi did not answer directly, but sighed: "Tian Rune is so lucky and gave birth to such a good son."
Chen Gaoyuan nodded when he heard this and said earnestly for a long time: "Run'e's stubborn temper is no smaller than your sister-in-law, it must be a problem."
The person who tied the bell must be untied. Both brothers and sisters understand this truth, but they didn't say it.
Just like Chen Xiaomi, she could actively seek a settlement with Li Heng and the Li family as the old man said because of her admiration for Li Heng.
But sister-in-law, older sister and second sister are different. They are not literati and do not engage in literature. They will not be so keen to Li Heng's talent at the first time, nor will they be so shocked in the spiritual core, and have lag.
Of course, if Li Heng kept the level of "Living" in the future and wrote one or two such works in his lifetime, it might be another situation.
But everyone can see how high the level of "Living" is. Can Li Heng still write comparable works?
Chen Xiaomi shook her head secretly, it was too difficult!
It’s not that she underestimates it, but that she rationally analyzes it with objective facts.
After all, many people are at their peak as soon as they debut, and it is difficult to write such popular works later.
For example, Mr. Cao's "Thunderstorm" is an insurmountable monument in the history of Chinese drama. Even though Mr. Cao continued to write and produced many excellent works, the outside world generally believes that it is not as good as "Thunderstorm".
