Chapter 332 They both collided and exposed each other

In Jinjiang Hotel, Li Luo took the elevator downstairs alone and walked out of the hotel door.

Walking two blocks along the way, I found a store called "Lao Yang Xinjiang BBQ". After walking into the store, I saw Xu Youyu sitting in the corner, bored.

Noticing Li Luo entering the door, Xu Youyu immediately waved to him.

"Is the bamboo sheng gone?" Xu Youyu asked quietly.

"She had a stomachache and said she would go back to her room after going to the bathroom." Li Luo said as he sat next to Xu Youyu.

“Do you believe it?” Upon hearing this, Xu Youyu narrowed his eyes and said a little speechlessly.

“I don’t believe it.” Li Luo coughed twice, “In short, you should just stay in your room today to avoid being bumped into by her.”

“Oh. ..." Xu Youyu leaned on the table and sighed, "Forget it Xixi, why did Zhusheng follow you, and even come to Changning to follow you, I am really suffering."

"Xixi is here just in time to travel, and it's normal to go out to play during the summer vacation. And her dad happens to be on a business trip to Changning." Li Luo said, "It's the same over at Zhusheng, and Aunt Yuan happens to have activities here."

"What bad luck." Xu Youyu lay on the table, turned to look at Li Luo and reached out to poke him in the face.

"What are you doing?"

"Nothing." Xu Youyu was bored and poked him everywhere, and then said, "I just learned that I could come to Changning to participate in the salon. When I arrived, I thought I would go shopping with you more, but I ended up taking a boat ride on the first day and couldn’t do anything later.”

“…There will be opportunities in the future.”

“Hey, let me tell you.” When Xu Youyu talked about traveling, he couldn’t help but feel a little expectant and excited, “Actually, I had a dream a long time ago. When I grow up and make money, I must come here. Travel across the country and visit all these great places.”

When the uncles and aunts eating barbecue at the next table heard this, they all smiled, probably laughing at the innocence of the children, or maybe they were envious. She can still have such thoughts.

But Li Luo knew very well that Xu Youyu did this in his previous life, and he did it.

Li Luo is her witness.

Xu Youyu said very excitedly. After mentioning the places he wanted to go to, he added: "If possible, first travel normally, and then buy a RV. If you drive around again, you will be completely satisfied.”

“Come on, I’m optimistic about you.”

"What's the point of being optimistic about me?" Xu Youyu gave him a blank look, "Come with me then, don't you want to go?"

"Then what if Xixi and Zhusheng want to go too?"

"Let's go together then." Xu Youyu chuckled, grabbed Li Luo's ears, and asked with a smile, "When the time comes, one man and three women will stay in the RV, are you looking forward to it?" Huh?”

“Hey...I didn’t say that...you said it yourself.”

The two chatted for a few minutes. Editor Qianzhou also rushed to the store and sat across from the two of them.

When Xu Youyu saw Qianzhou, he immediately let go of his hand, then asked the boss to bring him a few bottles of cold beer, took the menu and ordered some barbecue.

"By the way, you were called back at noon. What's the matter?" After the barbecue was served, Li Luo ate the mutton skewers and asked curiously, "It goes without saying that I'm too sensitive." 
“It’s not a big deal.” Qianzhou smiled helplessly, “It’s just that some sensitive content was written in a book, and it was directly reported to the authorities... The editor-in-chief held an emergency meeting and asked us to Check the book yourself and contact the author to delete it if there are any problems. Otherwise, it will be removed from the shelves. "

" Good guy," Li Luo said. This is the first time he has had such a close encounter with this book. kind of thing.

You know, when he entered the industry in his previous life, it was already after 2020.

The atmosphere at that time was already very strict. Any detailed description of a kiss might be blocked by risk control, let alone any sensitive content.

But at present, a comprehensive clean-up campaign for online articles has not yet come. In terms of content, everyone is still very open-minded.

So readers often criticize Li Luo's book for this reason, saying that the writing is clear and watery, and the key parts are not written at all, making it boring to read.

But Li Luo is actually just used to the intensity of review in his previous life. Now in order to keep this book alive longer, he subconsciously restrains himself when writing.

This leads to the fact that even if in the eyes of later generations it is a very normal style for an entertainment piece, in the context of the current era, "I'm Really Not a Star" is rated as a contemporary entertainment piece. A breath of fresh air in the text.

It can be considered a mistake.

"Speaking of which." Qianzhou just mentioned it and brushed it off, then asked Li Luo, "I received news from the copyright department, and my editor-in-chief also told me, are you Haven't we already negotiated the contract with the great master?"

"Yes." Li Luo nodded, "My lawyer will arrive in Changning tomorrow, and we can sign the contract directly by then. The details have been negotiated. "

"That's good." After confirming the news with Li Luo, Qianzhou suddenly smiled and said, "If you are such a great person, I can treat you to this meal."

"What's the benefit to you if I sign a contract with a great god?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"There will be bonuses." Qianzhou said, "And my own rating will also go up, which will also help the level of the year-end bonus at the end of the year. In short, there are many benefits. With you two in hand, my performance this year will definitely be Being at the front of the queue, you don’t have to worry about losing your job.”

The three of them chatted over barbecue and talked about a lot of things about the Internet.

In the middle of the conversation, we also talked about the subject of Xu Youyu’s next book, and mentioned the idea of “revival of spiritual energy” to Qianzhou, which made his eyes light up.

After brainstorming with Xu Youyu, Qianzhou also put forward many useful ideas and provided Xu Youyu with a lot of inspiration.

But after talking about this, Qianzhou looked at Li Luo and asked curiously: "What about you? How long will it take to write this book?"

"This book is still early. If I don’t write something worth millions, I’ll be sorry for the royalties,” Li Luo said very realistically.

"That's right." Qianzhou laughed and shook his head, "I have been reading your book. Whether it is the career line or the emotional line, they are all suppressed very well, with a lot of interesting daily details. The content is filling, and it is not boring to read. It can indeed be written for a long time."

"But..." Li Luo interrupted Qianzhou, and after thinking about it, he said to him, "That realism-themed essay competition. , I might try to write a book later."

"Huh?" Qianzhou was stunned for a moment, "Are you sure it's not good to open a book twice?"

"It's okay." Li Luo shook his head, "I won't start it directly. I will probably finish it all in private before posting it. The length is not long, at most four to five million words."

" Is the theme determined? "

"Well, it is related to the college entrance examination. It tells a series of stories about several families who want to provide their children with a good learning environment for the college entrance examination."

"The college entrance examination... ...That is indeed quite realistic, and you are a high school student yourself. There is indeed something to say in writing this." Qianzhou thought for a moment, nodded, and then quickly suggested, "Then when you sign the contract with the great god tomorrow, remember. Let’s discuss it with the copyright department.”

“What to discuss?”

“The resources of this new book!” Qianzhou reminded, “Realistic themes are not allowed in online articles. Readers are waiting for you, the traffic is pitiful. If you can take advantage of this opportunity to sign the contract and get more recommended resources, won’t you be able to get this essay?”

Li Luo nodded suddenly, but he was reminded. Arrived: "Okay, I'll ask the lawyer tomorrow and tell him."

"Ahem...don't say I reminded you." Qianzhou whispered, "Otherwise I will definitely be warned, Let’s talk about this in private, it’s still good for you.”

“Yes, I understand.” Li Luo nodded.

Seeing that he listened, Qianzhou breathed a sigh of relief. Before, he was a little worried that this boy was young and high-spirited and would not do this kind of thing to fight for resources.

Now that he had received a positive reply from Li Luo, Qianzhou felt relieved, and then asked curiously: "So have you thought about the title of the book? What do you plan to call it? I can help you get it first."

Li Luo nodded and said: "It's called "Little Joy"."

...

After eating the barbecue, it was already late at night and early in the morning.

Li Luo and the other two were walking back to the hotel.

"Why don't you just go home? No need to send you off."

"It's okay." Qianzhou waved his hand, "You two are underage, I will definitely have to send you off so late. , I can at least rest assured when I see you walking into the elevator.”

“Okay.”

Li Luo didn’t refuse, and followed Qianzhou back to Jinjiang Hotel.

After walking into the lobby, Qianzhou helped them press the elevator button, and then said: "Zi Yan is sure that he can become a master. The next step is to go to bed early. You have to work hard."

"It's still early for me." Xu Youyu said with a smile, "This book won't be finished until next year at least. Then we will have to take the college entrance examination. The new book will probably not be released until the second half of next year."

When she said this, Qian Qian Zhou Cai realized that these two guys had not even passed the college entrance examination, and he was immediately speechless.

It’s so irritating that people are so different from each other.

I won’t mention the pervert Li Luo, but even this little girl Xu Youyu’s current income is much more than him.

If she goes to college, she will be a rich little girl.

I don’t know who will be worthy of her in the future.

Thinking about this, the elevator at the end has reached the first floor.

Li Luo and Xu Youyu walked towards the elevator door. Qianzhou next to them smiled and said: "Go to bed early, I am very optimistic about you. You should finish this "Literary Age" carefully. It will be the foundation for you to become a god in the future.”

Listening to Qianzhou’s words, Li Luo and Xu Youyu also walked to the elevator door.

But the next second, their expressions suddenly changed.

Ying Zhicheng and Yuan Wanqing walked out of the elevator and happened to run into Li Luo and Xu Youyu.

The four people looked at each other.

Yuan Wanqing, who was wearing sunglasses, instantly let go of Ying Zhicheng's arm.

Xu Youyu quickly hid behind Li Luo, too frightened to even look at them.

At this moment, Qianzhou was the only one who hadn’t noticed anything was wrong, and was still minding his own business and said, “And didn’t we just chat during the barbecue?”

“I I think the concept of spiritual energy recovery that you two talked about is quite interesting. It should be a good entry point for the subject. If you write a book..."

"Well..." When talking about this, Qianzhou finally Realizing something was wrong, he saw that Xu Youyu suddenly hid behind Li Luo, and the two people who came out of the elevator were motionless. He suddenly asked in confusion, "What are you..."

"Ahem... ..." Li Luo looked at Yuan Wanqing, then at Ying Zhicheng, then glanced at Qianzhou, and said without changing his expression, "Uncle Ying, this is my editor."

"Oh, hello. ." Ying Zhicheng was a little shocked at first. Although his heartbeat was still a little fast, he at least calmed down and nodded to Qianzhou next to him.

Seeing this, Qianzhou didn't bother him anymore. After nodding in greeting, he said to Li Luo: "Then I'll go home first? Since you met someone you know, I won't bother you."

"Yes." Li Luo nodded lightly. After watching Qianzhou leave, before he could speak, Ying Zhicheng on the other side said -

"Are you two free now? Let's have a chat. "

"Yes, let's talk." Yuan Wanqing also showed a helpless expression and said to Li Luo and Xu Youyu, "Come and sit with us?"

"Okay. "Li Luo nodded, and then tugged on Xu Youyu's sleeve.

Xu Youyu quickly shook his head in embarrassment and whispered: "How about you go? I won't go." "You are Xu Youyu, right?" Ying Zhicheng glanced at Xu Youyu, "I remember it was with The girl who lives with Xixi and the others had dinner at the parent-teacher conference before."

"Yes, that's right." Xu Youyu nodded quickly: "Hello, uncle. "

"You can come too." Ying Zhicheng forced a smile, "I just heard Li Luo's editor say that you are also writing a book? It should be pretty good, right? Come and sit with Li Luo, right?”

When his weakness was mentioned, Xu Youyu’s face suddenly froze, so he could only nod with tears in his eyes: “Well, Uh-huh...Okay, I understand..."

The four people walked into the elevator, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Li Luo watched the elevator reach the 20th floor, and was then taken to the door of a room by Ying Zhicheng and Yuan Wanqing.

Ying Zhicheng took out the room card and opened the door, inviting them in.

It didn’t take long.

On the sofa in the living room of the suite, Li Luo and Xu Youyu were sitting together.

Yuan Wanqing was sitting on the single sofa nearby, having taken off her sunglasses at this moment.

Ying Zhicheng, on the other hand, pulled up a chair and sat across from the coffee table, with his hands on his knees and looked at Li Luo and Xu Youyu opposite.

The atmosphere is still thick.

In the end, Li Luo coughed twice and asked first: "Uncle Ying, you and Aunt Yuan... um... have you confirmed your relationship?"

"Yes. "Yes." Ying Zhicheng clasped his hands together and nodded without any escape, "We are already together."

"You can ask any questions you have."

"I have only one request, that is, don't tell Xixi about this."

"There is also a bamboo sheng." Yuan Wanqing pursed her lips and added softly.

Hearing this, Xu Youyu on the sofa quickly pulled Li Luo's sleeves and whispered, "Then can they also keep it a secret for me?"

Li Luo turned his head and gave her a "look at your potential" look, but still said: "Sister Xu, I am the only one who knows about writing novels."

"Because she is interested in writing novels. She is quite shy about this matter, so she doesn’t want others to know about it. Can Uncle Ying and Aunt Yuan keep it a secret for her?”

“Of course” Ying Zhicheng nodded, “We won’t. I mentioned this to others."

Hearing this reply, Xu Youyu breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, a kind of strong curiosity and gossip began to burn in my heart.

After all, this is Xixi’s father and Zhusheng’s mother!

These two people actually came together? !

Damn it!

Just getting out of the state of social death, Xu Youyu suddenly realized how exciting this melon was.

If Ying Zhicheng and Yuan Wanqing really confirmed their relationship, then... wouldn't Xixi and Zhusheng become real sisters?

When he thought of this, Xu Youyu suddenly had a strange expression. He wanted to laugh a little, but he held it back.

Li Luo asked out of curiosity: "So Uncle Ying...when did you and Aunt Yuan get together?"

"Actually, there was no particularly specific time. Ying Zhicheng pursed his lips and said after careful consideration, "Wan Qing has been treating heart disease abroad before, and I only took time to visit her every year."

"Her condition is gradually stabilizing." It was three years ago."

"It wasn't until two years ago that her condition was completely stable and she moved back from abroad."

"It was probably around that time that we were together. The relationship is almost confirmed.”

Li Luo almost understood the situation after listening to what Ying Zhicheng said.

Yan Zhusheng was a transfer student in junior high school before, and was directly arranged by Yuan Wanqing to return to China to study in the third year of junior high school. Then he took the high school entrance examination and was admitted to the No. 1 Middle School.

At about the same time, Yuan Wanqing and Ying Zhicheng confirmed their relationship, but kept it secret until both daughters were admitted to college, before they decided to show off?

Li Luo made a guess in his mind, and then asked a very curious question: "So Uncle Ying knew Aunt Yuan a long time ago? When she was treating diseases abroad, Are you still going to visit her?"

"Well...we have known each other for a long time, fifteen or sixteen years, right?" Ying Zhicheng recalled and said with a smile, "I was her manager back then. Man, it’s a pity that she suffered a heart attack not long after she became popular, and had to go abroad for treatment and recuperation.”

“No wonder...” Li Luo’s face showed a look of surprise, and he finally understood what was going on. relation.

It turns out that Ying Zhicheng and Yuan Wanqing have known each other so early.

Otherwise, to be honest, in Li Luo's impression, Ying Zhicheng's success was only in recent years.

Although he had done a good job before, it was still difficult for Li Luo to imagine that he could have any contact with Yuan Wanqing, who was known as the Little Queen at the beginning of the century.

But if it’s an agent, it all makes sense.

“I was working in a TV station 20 years ago. Later, when the state-owned enterprises were restructured, I followed my teachers at the TV station to work hard and joined the predecessor of Huayue Film and Television. At that time, the company was still called Huaxing.”

Speaking of the past, Ying Zhicheng also fell into memories and chatted with Li Luo.

“Due to my teacher’s relationship at that time, I directly became an agent and brought several young artists with me. Wanqing joined in the middle.”

“But she later The development momentum was the best, with three consecutive albums selling well, and I gradually gained a voice in the company."

"I finally climbed up step by step thanks to my teacher's relationship."

"But Wanqing had to go abroad to recuperate because of a heart disease. Because of my manager's relationship, I would go out to see her every year."

"After going back and forth, I gradually developed feelings for her. "

After saying these things, Ying Zhicheng felt a little more relaxed and smiled helplessly at Li Luo: "I'm hiding it from Xixi now. It's not that I don't want her to know, I'm just worried about it. It will affect her mood."

"She is still preparing for the math competition, and she has to face the college entrance examination later. Although I believe in her learning ability, I am also worried that this incident will cause some problems. A bad influence.”

“So I plan to make it clear to you, Aunt Yuan, after everyone here in Xixi, including Zhusheng, is admitted to college. This matter."

"So I still hope that you two can keep it secret for us. When the time is right, we will take the initiative to tell them."

When Ying Zhicheng said this, Li Luo could only nod.

But when taking Xu Youyu out of the suite, Li Luo still added: "Uncle Ying, sometimes, I think, when you think concealment is a kind of protection for them, when they know The truth is that it is hurtful and disrespectful to them."

"Of course, that's what I said."

"It's up to you to decide. An outsider won’t interfere blindly.”

After saying that, Li Luo and Xu Youyu took the elevator and went down to the eighth floor.

As soon as he walked into the elevator, Xu Youyu couldn't help but took a few deep breaths, and then said with some excitement: "Damn! This is too exciting! Xixi's father and Zhusheng her Damn! We’re actually together!”

“Okay, calm down,” Li Luo said with a speechless face, “You might as well think about it first, then Uncle Ying and Aunt Yuan will be free. I’m bored, what should I do after reading your book?”

“Damn it!” Xu Youyu gritted his teeth and said, “If you didn’t have to treat the editor to a late night snack. , how could I be exposed!"

"So it's all my fault?"

"Nonsense, who do you blame?"

"Do you think it's worth exchanging such exposure and social death for such explosive gossip?"

"Well..." Xu Youyu hesitated, and then whispered, "That feels okay... At least it’s quite exciting.”

Anyway, Ying Zhicheng and Yuan Wanqing are usually very busy people, and they don’t look like people who like to read online articles. If you know it, just know it and don’t tell it.

Xu Youyu comforted himself in his heart.

“By the way, Zhusheng’s birthday is in August?”

“Yes.”

“Xixi’s birthday is in March.” Xu Youyumo He held his chin and said, "So Xixi is the elder sister and Zhusheng is the younger sister."

"...Do you still have time to help them calculate their size?" Li Luo was speechless.

"What else can I do?" Xu Youyu said, "I think it's normal. Uncle Ying is handsome and Aunt Yuan is also very beautiful. I feel they are a good match."

"They Now we are all single-person families, and we no longer have a spouse, but we still have a relationship foundation, which I think is very good.”

"That's what I said." Li Luo sighed, thinking about the relatively negative views that Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng might have had on this matter in the previous life, he felt a little headache for Ying Zhicheng and the others, "Forget it, I don't want to think so much. "

After the elevator door opened, Li Luo and Xu Youyu walked out.

Then Xu Youyu stopped and said warily to Li Luo: "Go back first and see if Zhu Sheng is there. If she is there, stabilize her and send me a message. I will go back to the room."

“Should we be so careful?”

“I just experienced a door-to-door killing, and I don’t want to do it again!” Xu Youyu hurriedly urged, “Hurry up and stop inking.” 
“Okay, okay.”

Li Luo agreed and walked straight to his room.

After taking out the room card and swiping open the door, he pushed the door open and entered.

The second key card in the room was still inserted, and the sound of gurgling water came from the bathroom.

Maybe he heard the sound of the door opening. When Li Luo just closed the door, Yan Zhusheng's voice came from next to him.

"Li Luo, are you back?"

Li Luo sighed, glanced at Yan Zhusheng whose head poked out of the bathroom door, and quickly looked away: "If you want to take a shower, do it quickly. Don't come out in the middle of the shower. Ah."

"Oh." Yan Zhusheng nodded obediently and immediately returned to the bathroom and closed the door.

But Li Luo didn't hear the sound of the door locking. His eyes suddenly twitched. He quickly returned to the desk, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Xu Youyu.

But the next second, Yan Zhusheng knocked on the frosted glass of the bathroom, and a voice came from inside: "Li Luo."

"What's wrong?" Li Luo put down his phone after sending the message, He asked towards the bathroom, "What's the matter?"

"I didn't bring my clothes in, could you help me get them?"
