First ceremony: "..."

Chu Li: "I don't know what's wrong with me!"

Hiukawa: "It's nothing, I've never seen a mentally handicapped being so righteous... Why are you blushing when you are so straight?"

... This dead straight man, can you tell what it means to blush and what it means to be a natural girl with rosy cheeks

Chu Li was so embarrassed that he was almost dripping water. When he jumped out of the taxi, he was still walking like flying. Now he found that he could not walk after wearing reverse shoes. He was strong and calm and limped forward two steps... Hear a random sound As if she mistook the sigh, the man stood up from the chair and tucked the chair under her ass—

Chu Li thought that he didn't have to answer the difficult question that the man just asked, so he sat down, lowered his head, and changed his shoes, asking, "Teacher, are you alright?"

"What can I do, it's not that I got stitches here because I got bitten off my jaw and tail when I got into a fight with someone."

As Hiukawa said, he reached out and touched Ergou's head. Ergou seemed to hear the sarcasm in his master's tone. He raised the dog's head and shook off his hand. Hiukawa "hissed" and pushed his head back. bed...

Chu Li stretched his head to look at the two dogs, there were stitches on the chin, and the hair on the tail was shaved for the stitches, and there was only a bare rod and the tip of the tail poking the hair. It looked like a lion cub, ugly... this After a while, it was probably due to the anesthesia, the big dog couldn't close his mouth, and the blood flowed all over the bed.

Chu Li thought for a while and asked again: "Is the second dog okay?"

Hiukawa: "I heard that because I bit my jaw, I bled quite a lot at that time. The little girl who worked in a pet shop was so scared that I cried... Now it seems that it's okay, she's still alive."

Chu Li tentatively stretched out his hand, and found that Ergou didn't dislike her, so he lightly placed his hand on its forehead: "Did you win that fight?"

Hiukawa: "..."

Hiukawa's speechless gaze was too straightforward, and Chu Li withdrew his hand, a little embarrassed: "After all, I have been beaten, so I will ask the result by the way."

"You have a very problematic mind. When you have a child, you have to teach it to be a master in kindergarten." Hiukawa stared at her for a while and then said slowly, "...the German Shepherd's ears were torn off halfway, and the German Shepherd is just an ordinary A large dog, Alaska is a giant dog, about half the weight of a German Shepherd. I heard that the owner of the German Shepherd finally dragged his dog out from under the paws of Er Gouzi. This fat dog is overwhelming. If you don't come...how can someone bite your jaw?"

"..." Chu Li touched Er Gouzi's ears, "Yes, those pots of dog food are not in vain."

By the way, I would like to boast that the gentle and jade-like son Chuan Juju really deserves to be the one who wrote the book. Even if I was not at the scene and heard the third person convey the message, the narration is still vivid and full of pictures... Chu Li scratched Ergou's ears and forced Resisting the urge to praise it for being "really powerful" so as not to be complained about thinking problems again, I had to beat around the bush and say in a subtle way: "I can't tell, it's quite fierce to be stupid."

At this time, Er Gou faced the Sima face that his master had put on all night, at least he met someone who could treat him tenderly at this moment, so he quickly seized the time to moan and chirp coquettishly, but his tail was stitched, it hurt and he couldn't shake it ... Seeing his dog's repressed, stinking virtue and hot eyes, Hiukawa simply turned around, moved a bench over, and sat down next to Chu Li—at this moment, Chu Li withdrew his hands and sat up straight as if remembering something Ask: "Teacher, did you come here right after you got off the plane? Have you eaten tonight? I'll go buy you something to eat..."

Stand up while talking.

"Sit down." Hiukawa said concisely.

Chu Li "baji" sat down again, with an appearance of "you told me to be here"... Let the man's gaze slap her face, and then she heard the man slowly ask: "Why did you come here?" I brought food?"

"… "Is not it

"...you can't die from starvation if you eat less. Didn't you come to me for something? Tell me, what's going on with you," the man snorted softly, "I don't believe that a painter can make you so angry, oh shit, I'm still You didn't say anything, and you were trampled on the dog's tail over there..."

When the incident just now was mentioned, Chu Li blushed in a "chuckle" way: "Didn't I apologize to you?"

"I know," Hiukawa said expressionlessly, "it's too rare, so I want to hear you emphasize it again."

"..." Chu Li looked at this handsome face that deserved a beating, and thought that she must have been obsessed with ghosts half an hour ago to find him so helpless and pitiful, "It's because I have some problems at work. The progress of "Luohe Divine Book" is not smooth, and there is also a problem with "Hua Li" - remember that day I called you and left for a while? It was Xiaoniao who asked for leave, and Lao Miao asked me to watch "Hua Li" Peripheral orders are euphemistically called familiar with the work content, and I was anxious to call you at the time, so I can see the problem from this look... "

"what is the problem?"

"There is a discrepancy in the number of peripheral productions. All the people in our line who have been in contact with the order contract have all been arrested, scolded and deducted wages! There are so many deductions!" Chu Li took a deep breath, "The worst thing is At this time, I also received the notice from the landlord notifying me to pay the fee for the next quarter... "

"You act in a TV series, one set after another."

"I also think, how can I live in such a drama, how can I be so unlucky as a person? Now I am faced with a difficult multiple-choice question of either going to sleep on the main road or drinking the northwest wind."

"The housekeeper asked for money, but your family still watched you starve to death?"

"I tried, but my dad just waited for me to be poor and starving to death, and had to take care of the family to ask for money, and then forced me to go home and become an elementary school Chinese teacher..."

Hearing the words "language teacher", Hiukawa showed a mocking expression, probably thinking that the proposal was so bad that it exploded... Chu Li suddenly seemed to have found a confidant: "Isn't it? After writing "Luohe Divine Book" and signing "The Disappearing Amusement Park", he is just a rising star in the editorial world, what kind of language teacher should I be!"

Sitting there, Zhou Chuan watched Sui Sui recite the indignant first ceremony, and suddenly felt that what happened tonight, first he took care of a silly dog who fought and beat him to death, and after half a night of taking care of him...

The little girl who vomited bitterness in her personal life so drama was ushered in again.

... Be his bosom friend brother.

Hiukawa was slandering in his heart when his cell phone rang—

He picked it up to take a look, and hung up directly.

However, the other party continued to call in tirelessly, and Zhou Chuan had to pick up the phone to look at it again, frowned slightly, and was about to continue to hang up. At this moment, he suddenly felt a faint gaze from the side... The man raised his head slightly in a daze, Just in time, I saw Chu Li looking at him silently, with writing on his face: Did you hang up my phone like this before

Hiukawa: "..."

Hiukawa: "What are you looking at?"

Chu Li twisted his head away, Hiukawa looked down at the phone, hesitated for a while and finally pressed the answer button, said "Hello", paused, and said, "Dad?"

As soon as Chu Li heard it, he quickly turned his head back with a gossip face. Hiukawa seemed to have guessed that she would be like this, and gave her a hard look, and pinched her chin with the other hand that was not on the phone. twist her face away—

Chu Li slapped his hand off, and saw that his expression was exactly the same as that of Er Gouzi when Er Gouzi was waiting for him to feed the canned food, only two ears were pressed against his head and his tail was flicked!

"I'm outside... how do you know that Ergou fought with someone? Jiang Yucheng's mouth is not zipped!"

"I went to city B for leisure and put him in the pet hospital for foster care—what kind of abuse, you talk nicely, eat and drink for 250 yuan a day, and the canned food is brought from my own home. Take a walk every day for an hour, who am I torturing? me?"

"Two stitches, it's all right... I can take it back after a while after the anesthesia - why can't I go home? The jaw and tail were bitten, and the leg is not broken! If I don't take it back, why don't I carry it back?!"

"Why is it suddenly arranged that I will go home next week for the Writers Association meeting and bring it home by the way? I said I will not go to the meeting! The dog will not be given to you... How old are you and your son to snatch the dog? Disrespect!"

Hiukawa's voice changed from speechless to helpless to annoyed to helpless, and the face of the Sichuan Opera changed, which was quite beautiful—Chu Li squatted beside her listening with a happy face, Hikawa suddenly turned around when she was on the phone, grabbed her mobile phone, Open the memo and type with one hand—

Hiukawa: [It's none of your business, you've seen the dog, and you've said what happened, go back, find the cover of Cocoon Painting, hurry up, before I regret it. goodbye.]

Chu Li took back his mobile phone and typed: [It's okay, just sit down for a while.]

Hiukawa: "..."

Hiukawa: [Not going to work tomorrow?]

Chu Li: [It's okay, I... ]

The phone was snatched away before she finished typing. She raised her head and looked at a pair of brown eyes. The latter glanced at her in distaste, mouthed "Confiscated", and then put her phone directly into her pocket, keep calling—

"I said I can't go to the meeting of the Writers Association, why are you so persistent."

"I don't want to go to the meeting just for the meeting. This time I'm asked to have a meeting and I'm going to snatch my dog, let alone go... Your negotiating skills are no one else."

"No discussion, no discussion."

"There's no reason! The second dog can't close its mouth now, and its tail is shaved like a bald gourd. How can I take it on a plane? Is the air box where the dog stays, in case it gets sick or bumps? It is not willing to stay in it when it is caught!"

Hiukawa stood up directly, Chu Li shrank back and hugged Ergou's big head to prevent its owner from going crazy and hurting the innocent... Fortunately, at this time, the staff of the pet shop walked by and looked sideways: "Sir, quiet."

Hiukawa glanced at the staff, then sat down silently, finally stopped growling and let the other party say a few words - a few seconds later, a lightning-struck expression appeared on the man's face: "What do you mean my dog is the same as me?" Hypocritical?"

This time, Chu Li who was eavesdropping on the side finally couldn't hold back his laughter.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chuan was obviously in a bad mood, and Chu Li didn't know what he was talking about about the meeting of the Writers' Association. He had heard that Zhou Chuan had joined the Writers' Association in the provincial capital of his hometown before, but he kept talking to those who were known as his father during the day. The uncles and aunts of the older generation of authors represented by Mr. Gu Xuan... did not play very well.

Looking at it this way, I don't even want to go to a meeting. It seems that the rumors are true.

At this moment, Ergou's anesthesia was about to wear off, and he began to be dishonest while staying on the bed. Hiukawa looked around the sick cats and dogs coming and going, and there were pet owners crying from time to time in the pet operating room, which seemed to be the same. I can't bear to stay here all the time, so I hand Ergou over to Chuli, and run back to drive to take Ergou home...

Chu Li stayed with Ergou for an hour, when her phone vibrated, she realized that it was Zhou Chuan who had sent her a text message: Come out.

Looking up, I saw a silver-white Porsche parked in front of the pet hospital—people are really different, some people are driving Porsches; some people are holding a mobile phone map to choose the underside of the flyover for themselves tomorrow .

Chu Li called the staff of the pet hospital to help move the fat dog of a hundred kilograms into the car. The staff of the pet hospital patted Er Gouzi's head humorously: "Don't come back again. Choose my day off, you know?"

First ceremony: "..."

Hiukawa: "..."

Hiukawa settled the bill with the pet hospital and offered to pay a sum of medical expenses for the German Shepherd whose ear was torn off... Chu Li watched the whole process, until Hiukawa raised his head after swiping the card and asked her: "I'm not in the car yet. What are you looking at with your neck stretched out?"

Chu Li: "I also want Er Gouzi to give me a bite. You don't need to give me too much money. Four thousand yuan is enough for me to pay the rent."

"The German Shepherd has a pedigree certificate, how about you?"

"..." Chu Li thought for a while, "The birth certificate of the Second People's Hospital of H City?"

"..." Hiukawa showed an expression of "I'm too lazy to listen to your idiotic dreams", and twitched the corners of his lips, "Get in the car for me."

The back row was occupied by Er Gouzi, Chu Li had no choice but to go to the co-pilot to open the door and get in the car. As soon as he got in the car, he was reminded to put on his seat belt. Here's a sentence: "If you think it's not easy to put your legs in front of you, put the chair back..."

Without waiting for Chuli's answer, he looked down at her legs and her confused face of "what are you talking about", Hiukawa paused for a while, pretending to be nonchalant in a forced and unembarrassing way: "Forget it, it's okay. "

The car started and drove for five meters, and Chu Li came to his senses: "Do you want to fight?"

Hiukawa held the steering wheel with one hand: "Please do not chat with the driver."

Chu Li turned her head and looked out of the window, and the shops on the street passed by quickly. When she saw a restaurant called "Papa Tea Restaurant", she suddenly remembered something and asked: "Mr. Call? What did you say? Invite you to attend the Provincial Writers Association meeting? Isn’t this thing rare once a year, why don’t you go?”

While talking, Chu Li turned around and looked at the man driving the car. There was no extra emotion on the latter's face: "No, Ergou has made such a fuss. I don't want to put him in a pet store for foster care in the future."

"Then how do you go out after that? People who run around the world every day... just because of this, why don't you go to the Writers Association Conference?"

"I don't know. If I can't find someone to take care of it when I'm not around, maybe I'll hand over the second dog to the country and send it home like the old man said? It's better than a foster pet store... There are too many dogs in the pet store gone."

"????"

First salute black question mark face.

"It doesn't like to socialize, and it doesn't even look at other dogs when it goes for a walk, and it is irritable when it is with other dogs." Hiukawa said lightly, "Besides, what's the point of that, let you talk to a group of dogs after dinner. Do you want to go to the old lady's square dance? At that stop, the whole world will ask you if you have a partner and then want to introduce you to the tall and mighty business security captain in your community."

Chuli: "Huh?"

Hiukawa: "That's what the Writers Association will say at the meeting."

Chu Li was surprised: "The Writers Association still cares about blind dates for single authors?"

"... Why is it so hard to talk to you?" Hiukawa stepped on the brakes and waited for the red light, "What's the matter with your envious face? You can't get married and lose weight, so make money to get plastic surgery - shut up and move away Legs, if you really can’t do it, go to the temple and burn incense.”

Chu Li was at a loss: "...so don't care about the blind date?"

Hiukawa: "A person like me needs a blind date?"

why not

Apart from being good-looking and rich, the key is that she has such a bad temper and lives like a fairy.

Not grounded.

Chu Li stared at Zhou Chuan for a long time, and suddenly realized: "Wait, I seem to understand what you mean-you mean that you can't talk to the authors and teachers of traditional literature, there is no common topic, and they force you to instill traditional literature on you. The ideological content in literature, regardless of whether those things are suitable for your creative routine, right?"

Hiukawa: "If you have a good IQ and can go online, you still look like a human being—that's what you mean."

Chu Li thought for a while, then said thoughtfully: "Traditional literature has a lot to learn. It would be very interesting if it can be combined with novels read by contemporary young people. Good-looking novels combined with deep thoughts, then It's just entertaining and educational... It doesn't hurt to hear them talk about it."

Hiukawa: "Lao Miao also teaches you every day, do you like to listen?"

First ceremony: "..."

"The same goes for those people, just like Lao Miao doesn't necessarily want to make you a qualified editor, and Yuanyue Club recruits new people not because of a lack of talents, but because they want to go public, expand their scale and increase their valuation; those old men The old lady doesn't necessarily want to share some good things with you, but more, she wants to show them to others: look, I have done everything I need to do, don't say that I am not tolerant, it is because he doesn't learn well !"

Chu Li thought about Lao Miao, and then felt that he was persuaded by Hiukawa's theory of evil and crooked ways—Lao Miao would teach her everything and tell her everything, but he could tell with just one look. He didn't regard Chuli as his own country.

What's more, he's just doing his superficial job—

After all, just like the order issue this time, the subordinates can't do well, and the superior, Lao Miao, even takes the blame.

Chu Li fell into deep thought, and after thinking for a while, she finally pulled out a little bit from Hiukawa's nonsensical reasoning. She grabbed the seat belt in her hand and pointed at the taillight of the car ahead: "But, I didn't escape."

Who are you talking about escaping? Hikawa turned his head and glanced at her.

"I know that Lao Miao is not good, Xiaoniao is a waste, they are a nest of snakes and rats to bully people, I hope that when the Yuanyue Club starts laying off people, the person who leaves is me who is probably redundant in their eyes-this is The internal status of the editorial department of "Moonlight"," Chu Li frowned, "but I never thought about not going to work because of this, refusing to edit this job, the platform of Yuanyue Club..."

"Yuanyue Club is really great, it has a lot of resources, the author is very popular, and there are countless bestsellers," Chu Li said, "Do you want me to give up this big forest with rich resources because of these two people?"

"Out of sight, out of sight, can't be perfectly integrated into the food chain, and must leave early in order to survive—have you never heard of this kind of chicken soup?" Hiukawa asked.

"No! Both dogs know how to fight and grab territory. When they encounter an excellent environment but find that they can't fit into the food chain perfectly, how can they turn around and run away—turn it into a new environment with themselves at the top of the new food chain!!! "

Hiukawa raised his eyebrows, and seemed to glance at her in surprise, while Hatsune waved his fist at the air—

"There is never a solution to escape. You have to stand up and tell those aunts who dance in the square that I am as beautiful as a flower, with seven points before makeup and eight points after makeup. He is 1.8 meters tall and has a deposit of 1.8 million and a house of less than one. Don’t disturb the excellent single men of 180 square meters! If you don’t tell me, you just avoid it, how do they know that you don’t want the security of the community business, they think you are shy?!”

There was a long silence.

The man sneered, "I'm chattering."

Chu Li blushed, and twisted his face away in a fit of anger: "That's right, I've said a lot of truths, but I still can't live a good life—I have to go home and choose the bridge hole where I will stay tomorrow!"

At this time, the car had almost arrived at Chu Li's house. Under Chu Li's instructions, the man parked the car in front of a dilapidated building... He opened the car window and looked around. Hiukawa asked, "That's it?"

Chu Li: "That's it."

Hiukawa: "Just yelling at me because you're about to lose this place?"

Chu Li: "...Isn't this place better than the place where the brothers of the Beggar Gang gather under the bridge?"

Chu Li was reaching out to open the car door. Unexpectedly, the man sitting in the driver's seat took off his seat belt and got out of the car first. He watched him get out of the car and stared at the small broken building for a long time, and then went around to Chu Li's place. side, bend over to open the door...

Chu Li was taken aback!

Thought he was going to punch someone—

Unexpectedly, after the man opened the car door, he suddenly opened the car door and looked down at the little girl sitting in the car who was staring at him eagerly: "Hey, Banana Man, I suddenly have an idea."

Chu Li maintained the posture of sitting in the car, because Hiukawa blocked the door and couldn't get out, so he had to say obediently: "If you say you want to fight with me here, my answer is: I don't agree."

Hiukawa: "..."

Hiukawa: "It's really mentally handicapped."

First ceremony: "..."

Hiukawa propped up the roof of the car with one hand, and rested his elbow on the door of the car with the other. Under the moonlight, Chu Li couldn't see clearly the expression on the face of the man facing her... She pursed her lips slightly, not knowing Why, I started to get a little nervous again.

The heartbeat is a little fast, I hope he can't hear it.

The aunt on the first floor behind her came out with footwashing water, fell on the wall, glanced at the two people who stopped in front of the broken building and posed, and said with emotion, "Young people today", turned around, and closed the door with a sigh. door to door.

Chuli: "Teacher?"

"You need to find a place to live," Hiukawa said lightly, "and I need to find someone to take care of Ergou when I'm not around."

Chuli: "?"

Hiukawa: "My house also has an attic. It's not big, only 70 square meters. It has a private bathroom and toilet and a small balcony. Now I pile up sundries - the rent is free, and I only need to mop the floor, cook, wash dishes and feed the dog every day. ,What do you think?"

Chu Li's brain was empty for three seconds.

In the fourth second, she sat up, reached out and grabbed the collar of the man bent over the car door: "Really!?!????"

Hiukawa was caught off guard, and she almost grabbed his forehead and knocked on the car door—

"It's true," Hiukawa patted her paw away with a calm expression, "But I thought you would scold first: Hooligan, who wants to live with a big man!"

"..."

"At any rate, you're putting on a show, and the way you're taking advantage of this face makes me think it's absurd for me to put forward this idea."

"It's nothing bad," Chu Li was incoherent with excitement, "If you go to the bottom of the bridge and live with a bunch of beggar gang brothers, what's the difference, at least you still know how to take a bath!"

"..."

"Thank you, landlord! I will cook for you! When is it convenient to move?"

Chu Li jumped out of the car and walked around the man like a puppy, but the real dog in the car just calmly raised his big head and looked out the car window, then tilted his head suspiciously —

Hiukawa looked down at the little girl who was jumping up and down around him, as if she had found the hope of being alive... As she circled around, her pair of dusty running shoes made a circle of small footprints on the dirt floor.

It suddenly occurred to her that a few hours ago, she came to him wearing reversed shoes and asked him: Teacher, are you all right

Hiukawa raised his eyelids and looked at the dark old building behind her. A few hours ago, was she like this now, after receiving his call, she jumped out of the dark corridor like flying—

Landing on the dirty dirt floor, leaving deep footprints

"..."

The man's brown pupils, which had been shrouded in gloom since the afternoon, were suddenly swept away by the haze. He looked at her, and when she looked up at him, her eyes reflected the moonlight behind him, bright and clear...

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight."

"what?"

"It's nothing." The man stretched out his hand, patted the smooth forehead of the happy little girl in front of him, and said with a "snap", "You can move it whenever you want."

Chu Li straightened up with a "huh" and covered his forehead, but he didn't curse for the first time after being beaten, but couldn't stop grinning silly because of surprise: "How should I thank you..."

The man narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his lips.

In the night wind, the voice was deep and magnetic, as if right next to her ear—

"Feed the dog and walk the dog well, and feed me... Of course, I don't need to walk."
