"Sister He, you are so nice. I thought you would..."
Gu Xiaoqing was still a little cautious, why not sit by the window, and kept stroking the book cover with his hands after ordering.
"What can you do?"
"Hey... nothing."
Coming to the book signing is not only to sign the name of the author of your favorite book, but also to see the real author, to see what it is like to compose these words and create such a world.
Gu Xiaoqing felt very satisfied, what he got today has exceeded his psychological expectations by far.
In particular, He Wu's gentle temperament and kindness are perfectly in line with her imagination, and even better.
Well worth the trip.
"Before I thought, to be able to write such a gentle story, that person must be very gentle. Now that I see it, it's really... Sister He, I want to ask, that... the story in this book is yours. Have you experienced it yourself?"
"No." He Wei smiled and shook his head.
"Ah? Then why can you write so delicately..." Gu Xiaoqing asked subconsciously.
"No one who writes martial arts can really fly over the wall."
He might as well blink mischievously, "It's impossible for a writer who writes about ghosts to catch ghosts every day."
"...Okay." Gu Xiaoqing was slightly embarrassed, realizing that he had asked a stupid question.
She looked at the covers of the three books on the table and sighed, "That's right, how can such feelings exist in reality..."
"Not necessarily... I believe there must be better ones. Although I didn't meet them, someone must meet them."
"Maybe." Gu Xiaoqing's face showed a trace of yearning, she looked up at He Wu, "Thank you, Sister He, for letting me see such a beautiful story..."
Human pessimism is not connected, but words can make people emotionally resonate.
Even though I know that it is difficult for me to meet such a beautiful relationship, I can still feel the warmth and joy from reading the stories in the book, and at the same time, I am longing for it, and it can be regarded as making up for a little regret.
"No, it should be me thanking you, thank you for liking the story I wrote." He Wei shook his head slightly, looked at Gu Xiaoqing and said.
The two of them should be friends.
She was the one who read the stories written by He Wu countless times, from physical books to online, and those comments and analyzes always amazed He Wu.
That is the feeling of meeting a confidant.
Although they don't know each other's names, they are more like friends than friends.
"Hey... Nothing will happen later, right? I really want to see them continue like this."
"No, I promise."
From the moment the pen was written, He Wu had already set a perfect ending.
This time won't ruin the story again.
The food was served very slowly at meal time, so why not be in a hurry, drinking tea slowly, answering various questions Gu Xiaoqing raised from time to time, when the dishes were served, Gu Xiaoqing's formality disappeared without a trace.
"Do you live in Los Angeles?" He Wu asked.
"Yes, it's over there in Beicheng."
"It's a long way from here."
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a matter of taking two extra bus transfers." Gu Xiaoqing shook her head, and asked after a pause, "Is Sister He also from Los Angeles?"
"Not yet."
"oh… "
The dark night fell outside, and the stars were already hanging in the sky. After eating, why not stop Gu Xiaoqing from asking for the bill, pay the money, and treat this most familiar and strange friend to dinner.
"Goodbye, Miss He!"
"Goodbye, it's getting late, pay more attention on the road."
"OK!"
Holding her three books in her arms, Gu Xiaoqing reluctantly turned and walked towards the bus stop.
As she walked, she clenched her left hand and waved it fiercely. Standing on tiptoe, she took two quick steps with light steps and hummed happily.
Had a great time this weekend.
…
"Eat so long?"
Qin Guanglin came out from the nearby KFC, took He Wu's bag, handed her the Pikachu in his hand, and walked towards the parking place together.
As early as when He Wu left the door of the signing hall, he received a message from He Wu, saying that he wanted to have dinner with a friend he just met, and asked him to find something to eat alone, so he went to the KFC next door to solve the dinner by himself.
"The service is too slow, remember it, we will not come to this store in the future."
Why not point to the back and play with Pikachu a couple of times, this little toy is from the children's meal, and said with a smile: "You are so grown up and eat the children's meal?"
"There is no rule that you can't eat it." Qin Guanglin shrugged indifferently, "The two burgers are not full, so we can only add a small set meal. This is a good deal."
"Hmph, older children."
"Abaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
"Go, go, I'm not ashamed at all, I'm outside." He Wei smiled and pushed him away, "Hurry up and drive."
The sky is full of stars, the streets are verdant, the two people squeeze together arm in arm, laughing in low voices, the breeze blows from a distance, gently brushes past them, shakes the corners of their clothes, and blows their ears. A strand of broken hair.
"At first I thought you were having dinner with a male book friend, but I almost rolled up my sleeves and beat him up, but after a closer look, I realized it was a woman."
"He just has short hair, how can he look like a man?" He Wu rolled his eyes, "So jealous?"
"Hmph, what do you think?"
The two sat in the car jokingly, why not the phone ding-dong.
"Sister He, you are such a gentle person, you will definitely meet the kind of happiness in the book."
She looked at the news on WeChat and smiled, "You too, come on."
"Look, some people say I'm gentle." Why not put the phone in front of Qin Guanglin to show off.
"Well, yes, you are gentle."
While fastening his seat belt, Qin Guanglin said, "Is the one in the book... very happy?"
He has naturally read the book written by his girlfriend, and he has read it more than once. Although it is regrettable that he and He Wu didn't know each other as early as in the book, in his opinion, the relationship between the two now is not much different from that in the fictional story.
"Roughly the same."
"Hmm..." Qin Guanglin thought for a while, then suddenly smiled, and looked at her with malicious intent, "I can't help you with my childhood sweetheart, but I can give you other happiness."
Why not look at him with vacant eyes and ask, "For example...?"
"Hiss..." Qin Guanglin made an onomatopoeia.
"Bah, old and indecisive."
"You didn't write it yet."
While talking and joking, the car started, turned around slowly in the dark night, and then drove steadily on the road towards home.
…
late at night.
The curtains were tightly closed, and the air was filled with the scent of heather flowers. Qin Guanglin lay relaxed on the bed, with one hand resting on the edge of the bed and the other embracing He Wei, his eyes half-closed as he thought about it.
Not to mention, it is indeed very happy to experience it occasionally according to what is written in the book.
He Wu was paralyzed on the bed, lazy and didn't want to move, it took him a long time to move his head and lean against his chest, closed his eyes and said, "I'm a little hungry."
As soon as the words were finished, Qin Guanglin's stomach growled twice, why not raise his head in a little surprise, "Go buy something to eat!"
She went there alone and endured the hunger, but now the two of them are hungry together, and they can't do without buying.
Instruct him confidently.
Qin Guanglin casually touched the mobile phone on the bedside table to check, then put it back again and said, "It's already past twelve o'clock, where is there any food... only the food stalls are open, do you want to eat barbecue or something?"
"The small supermarket downstairs is also open, right? Buy a plum, and you can buy what you want." He might as well rub a small foot on his leg, "Yes, there are also duck feet..."
"Are you hungry or hungry?"
Qin Guanglin raised his head slightly to look at her, and seeing her blinking eyes, he had no choice but to get up and go to the corner of the bed to pull his clothes, "Is there anything else you want to eat?"
"Well... not anymore."
Why not with bright eyes, watching Qin Guanglin put on his clothes and get out of bed, get up and ask for a hug, then slapped him again, "Thank you husband."
Hey, Qin Guanglin is very happy.
"Wait, come right back!"
He responded, took his wallet and Teng Teng went downstairs, and after a while Teng Teng ran up again with a large bag of snacks in his hand.
Why don't you wait lying on the head of the bed, holding up the second duck paw like a hamster and gnawing on it, Qin Guanglin has already eaten two breads, gulped down two glasses of water, and felt his energy returned.
Turning his head to see He Wu's small mouth grunting and spitting out bones, his eyes shifted sideways.
He might as well see his appearance and his face tightened, "What do you want to do?"
"Is it delicious?" Qin Guanglin smiled very gently, "Hurry up and eat."
