After being slapped away by Hiukawa, Jiang Yucheng held Chuli's hand again, he looked at her seriously like never before, looked at her face and said: "I'm not joking, if I can, I hope you can think about it— The editor and the author are a match made in heaven, and you like what I write, in the future, I can write to you every day."

"..."

When an author confesses, all he can come up with is just one sentence: If you like to read, I will write to you every day in the future.

Chu Li opened her mouth wide. Although everything in front of her was very weird, she had to say that she finally realized how serious Jiang Yucheng was... All this was magical. It was the first time in twenty-two years that a boy confessed to her. The author I like, use the most seductive words that an author can say to her, and it is like dissecting her to find out what she likes to hear the most, repeatedly emphasizing: compared to yourself, What I love more is your ability to work.

... ... ... ... ... ... this point of view.

It's basically like pushing a girl who thinks she's probably married to a job to the ground, frantically teasing her dead girl's heart.

This is foul.

-… pity.

—It's a pity that Jiang Yucheng came too late. About two days ago, Chu Li realized one thing. What she likes is Zhou Chuan, who has no merits... Except for writing, he is not as good as Jiang Yucheng, and only writing He's still finished the manuscript, and Jiang Yucheng will delay the occasional additional tasks, but for "The Lost Amusement Park", he will always deliver the manuscript on time with the progress of three chapters ahead of schedule.

— But it’s useless to say that, she just likes Hiukawa.

—Jiang Yucheng came too late.

After realizing this, the deer bumping in his heart disappeared immediately, Chu Li raised his head and looked at Zhou Chuan almost reflexively, and unexpectedly found that the latter was also looking at her expressionlessly at this time...

Feeling a little flustered by the eyes that had turned from brown to dark brown, Chu Li withdrew his hand from Jiang Yucheng's, lowered his head, remained silent, not knowing how to respond.

On top of her head, Jiang Yucheng glanced at his empty palm: the warmth from before Chu Li's hand was taken away from his palm was still there, and her hand was as soft as if it had no bones...

"Everyone is an adult now, Hiukawa," Jiang Yucheng turned to Hiukawa, this was the first time Chu Li heard him speak to his "Achuan" in such a serious tone in memory, "Since you were young, they treated you What to say, who to compare you with, it has nothing to do with me, and I have never thought about what I want to compare with you... But this time, just this time, I hope you can figure out one thing - the first ceremony is just yours edit… "

Chu Li's throat choked.

"It's not 'the woman who just climbed out of your bed', it's not 'your person', and it's not your personal belongings," Jiang Yucheng said almost word for word, "She is our joint editor. Say, that's all."

Hiukawa was silent for a while: "For me?"

"Yes," the expression on Jiang Yucheng's face became softer again, he glanced at Chu Li, with a gentle smile on his brows and eyes again, "For me, I want her to be my daughter friend."

"..."

Chu Li couldn't speak a single word.

She looked up blankly at Jiang Yucheng and then at Zhou Chuan, but unfortunately neither of them spoke... Jiang Yucheng patted her on the head and said with a smile, "Don't rush to answer me now, it's okay."

Chu Li said "Oh", and now her brain couldn't turn around, so she had to roll back to the room with her pillow in her arms and go to sleep... She didn't know what happened downstairs next, she went back to her room and rolled on the bed with her pillow in her arms After two rolls, her bloodshot eyes stared at the roof of the attic, unable to close them.

I don't know how long it took until I was so sleepy that I fell asleep. When I fell asleep, I always felt that the bed was chilly, and there was nothing behind my back. I really missed the feeling of someone sleeping with my arms behind my back last night...

It would have been nice if the person who confessed was Hiukawa.

With a big yawn, Chu Li thought in a daze—

Too bad it's all delusional.

Because that person has no heart.

I slept until 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, and the price was that I couldn’t sleep that night. I got up from the bed the next morning with dark circles under my eyes. Chu Li had a splitting headache. After washing up, I crawled to the kitchen to make breakfast. When the breakfast was served , she looked at the man sitting at the dining table flipping through a heavy book...

This is someone she likes.

Heartless.

"I just became jet lagged in the United States," Chu Li put fried eggs, toasted bread, and jam in front of him, "The one who is close to ink is black."

"And I slept well last night." Zhou Chuan closed the book with a snap, "The online pre-sale sales of "Luohe Divine Book" are almost 70,000."

"Very good," Chu Li was lowering his head and spreading jam on the bread, "Very good."

Hikawa didn't speak.

Chu Li lowered his head.

The two of them possessed something called "tacit understanding" like never before, and they didn't mention a word about the farce yesterday morning... Chu Li didn't even want to ask where Jiang Yucheng was. I guess you have already gone back

After breakfast, Chu Li absent-mindedly went out with her bag, and when she arrived at the company, she found that there were three "surprises" waiting for her—

The first stage, when entering the office, Chu Li felt that the whole office was quiet for a while, the little bird looked up at her from his cubicle, and glanced at her mockingly, Chu Li felt inexplicable, until she I saw breakfast on her seat, enough for the whole office, soy milk, fried dough sticks, mung bean porridge, pancakes, fruits, and glutinous rice.

Chu Li walked over, bent down and picked up the glutinous rice: "Whose breakfast is on my table?"

"Jiang Yucheng brought it to you early in the morning. He said he didn't know what you like to eat, so he bought them all," Lao Miao said, "Who are you selling books to this Saturday?"

First ceremony: "..."

Put down the glutinous rice, turn on the computer, open Q, click on an avatar—

[The sailor invited by the monkey: Breakfast received, thank you teacher! It’s just that I don’t have to make such a troublesome trip in the future. I usually eat it casually at home or on the way to work.]

There was a quick response there.

[Jiang Yucheng: Okay, I was the one who was abrupt, I was afraid you would be hungry:)]

The speed of the reply was as fast as if he had been waiting for Chuli with his mobile phone. Thinking of Hiukawa once said that Jiang Yucheng is a night owl who will never appear in people's sight before 2 o'clock in the afternoon... such a person, Unexpectedly, for the first time on a working day, she got up early to buy breakfast for her and sent it to the editorial department, but she politely refused without saying anything.

Chu Li bit her lower lip, feeling deeply restless and guilty, feeling that she was committing a crime.

Lao Miao: "What's going on with you and Mr. Jiang Yucheng?"

Chu Li turned his head and looked at him silently, Lao Miao grinned: "It would be best if there is something wrong, although he is going to be out of breath, but at least he can sell it..."

None of your business.

"You can shut up." Chu Li interrupted him rudely, "In your eyes, the author is the difference between being able to sell and not being able to sell? Why don't you go to the marketing department if you like looking at numbers so much?"

Lao Miao was not angry at all when he was offended by others, and smiled brightly at Chu Li—he was in a good mood today, and he didn't know why.

Both the second surprise and the third "surprise" happened at the weekly morning meeting.

At the regular meeting, I didn’t forget that Chuli, who was forcibly robbed of credit on Saturday night, went early, sat next to Editor-in-Chief Xia, and began to teach Editor-in-Chief Xia how to use the voice function... Editor-in-Chief Xia learned it while wearing gold-rimmed glasses Seriously, after finishing the study, he finally asked a question that reflected the wisdom of his elderly: "This function is so easy to use, why didn't you tell me before?"

At that time, the entire conference room fell into a cemetery-like tranquility.

Chu Li cleared his throat: "New function."

Editor-in-Chief Xia nodded in confidence and muttered, "This function should have been released long ago", Chu Li turned around and saw that the editors of all the branches behind her had the same guilt and embarrassment as her.

Then the Monday meeting begins.

Chu Li began to wonder if he was Mercury retrograde—

First of all, Editor-in-Chief Xia, who has learned the "new functions of WeChat", told Chuli without the slightest gratitude that after "Hearing" was sent to the publishing house, the content could not pass the review, and the ISBN could not be approved. I am afraid that this book was useless before busy.

Thinking of my proofreading day and night, and the expectation in the eyes of Comrade A Gui who said "I'm going to publish a book in Yuanyue Society" every day, Chu Li's first reaction when he heard the news was to look up at the meeting. The window of the room, the meeting room is on the third floor.

She didn't expect that the more exciting thing was yet to come. The contract correction of "Luohe Divine Book" finally finalized the final version. The main revision was the first print run—the boss of the marketing department, the surfer stood up with a folder, Announced: "Due to the great success of the online pre-sale of "Luohe Divine Book", several brick-and-mortar booksellers who heard about the news increased their subscriptions within two days of the weekend, so it was finally agreed that the subscription volume of this book is—"

Chuli held his breath.

"Three hundred and forty thousand!"

Chuli leaked air.

Lao Miao had a face of "hahahahahahahahahahahaha".

"Let's congratulate the newcomer editor Chuli. The first book he made after joining Yuanyue Club became popular. The colleagues in the marketing department are very grateful to her for working as the editor-in-chief these days, and together they pushed "Luohe Shenshu" to its peak. !” Brother Surf put down the folder and said with a smile.

The people around began to applaud, and Chu Li felt as if she had been severely laughed at. If it hadn't been for the marketing department who set the first print quantity, and the boss of the marketing department who announced the results, she almost doubted whether this group of people was Team up to play her...

Three hundred and forty thousand.

It's only 10,000 short of 350,000!

I'm going to you Made! ! ! ! ! !

What about ghost! ! ! ! ! ! !

What about my deputy editor position! ! ! ! !

The theme of this morning's regular meeting is "just a step away from the door", if I had known that, I wouldn't be able to take sick leave! Not coming! ! ! ! !

Chu Li was so depressed that she even forgot to say that she had received a verbal promise to take down that short story that Zhou Chuan serialized on Weibo.

She raised her eyes to look at the sky, and it was the appearance of her deputy editor-in-chief flying away with wings inserted.
