Chapter 177: Redesign the cover
Liang Jingyao glared at Gu Mian with amusement, "Why are you rushing me? I won't go if you keep urging me!"
Gu Mian pushed Liang Jingyao out in a flattering manner, "Jingyao, I'm just anxious, I don't mean to rush you at all! Besides, we grew up as brothers wearing the same pants!"
Liang Jingyao pretended to knock on Gu Mian's head, then walked towards the west wing.
In the west wing, when the drunkard saw Liang Jingyao coming in, he couldn't wait to say, "Jingyao, come here quickly, I have something to tell you!"
Liang Jingyao is now absorbed in the story book, so how can he have time to talk to the drunkard?
"Wait a moment, I have something to do now!" He walked directly to Chen Yunyun and asked, "Yunyun, is the painting that Yue'er gave you last time still there? I want to show it to Amian. I might want to print it in a storybook."
At this time, Chen Yunyun had already finished her meal. She stood in front of the medicine cabinet and took the medicine according to the drawer number reported by the drunkard.
But Liang Jingyao's voice interrupted her movements. She turned around and said, "I put it in the room. Brother Liang, wait a moment, I'll get it right away!"
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you in the yard!"
The drunken old monster was getting anxious. He had finally waited for Liang Jingyao, but this guy didn't even give him a chance to speak. He called Liang Jingyao unhappily and said, "It's just such a small yard. It's the same if you wait here. By the way, I can still talk about my business."
Liang Jingyao nodded helplessly and said, "Okay then! Yunyun, please bring it here!"
Chen Yunyun knew how much the drunkard was looking forward to the pig's head, so she smiled and said, "It's okay, you guys go ahead and chat, I'll be back soon!"
Liang Jingyao walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, asking, "What's wrong? Are you drinking again? I won't agree to that!"
The drunkard curled his lips and said, "I'm not a three-year-old child anymore. I know better than you whether I can drink or not!"
Liang Jingyao couldn't help but complain in his heart, what's the difference between this drunkard's temperament and that of a three-year-old child?
However, the drunkard hasn't drunk for several days in a row. As a drunkard, why else could he not drink?
Liang Jingyao asked curiously, "What do you want from me?"
The old drunkard smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Jingyao is still good to me! These days, you're the only one who remembers that I like to drink. But now I have a daughter, so drinking has to be put on the back burner! But, I want to go to the yard to get some fresh air this afternoon. Can you ask the Silver Slash Guards to carry me out?"
Liang Jingyao glanced outside the yard. The drunkard rarely had the idea of taking a walk or getting some fresh air. What was wrong with him?
He reached out and touched the drunkard's forehead, saying, "That's normal! In your old yard, apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, you could stay in the pharmacy for a month without feeling bored! Why do you suddenly want to get some fresh air? Are you trying to steal some wine?"
The drunkard rolled his eyes, knowing that Liang Jingyao was not so easy to deal with!
"What are you stealing? I've already promised you! Actually, you're going to make pork head this afternoon, and I want to go over and take a look! Tell me, do you agree or not?"
Liang Jingyao then remembered that not only did the old wine freak love drinking, he was also an absolute foodie! Lin Xiaoyue must have told the old wine freak in advance, so he was so eager to see the pig head meat being cooked on the spot.
"Why didn't you tell me that earlier? You even said it on purpose to get some fresh air! Don't worry, I'll make arrangements. Someone will carry you out on time!"
Just as Liang Jingyao finished speaking, Chen Yunyun walked in with a painting.
"Brother Liang, I've found it. Here it is for you!" Chen Yunyun handed the painting to Liang Jingyao.
Liang Jingyao opened it and took a look. After confirming that it was the one with Sun Wukong, he stood up and said, "Okay. If he wants to take it to the bookstore for printing, do you agree?"
Chen Yunyun felt a little reluctant, but since it concerned Lin Xiaoyue, she readily agreed, "Okay! But when it's printed, you have to give me a copy. That way I can both read the book and have the painting of Sun Wukong."
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Okay, I can promise you this! Then I'll go to the study and show it to Amian first!"
With that, Liang Jingyao walked out.
In the study, Gu Mian had repeated it countless times. Just when Lin Xiaoyue felt her ears were about to get callused, Liang Jingyao finally came back!
Gu Mian practically rushed forward, searching Liang Jingyao's arms for the drawing paper, "Did you get it? Hurry up and get it out! I've been waiting so long that my hair is turning gray!"
"Quack!" Liang Jingyao slapped Gu Mian's impatient hand away, pulled out a rolled-up piece of drawing paper from his sleeve, and said, "Here, take it and have a look!"
Gu Mian pouted and spread out the drawing paper to take a look. On it, he saw a Monkey King with a monkey head and a human body, grinning and holding a golden cudgel in his hand with a ferocious look, as if he was about to beat the White Bone Demon to death!
"Amazing! Miss Lin, have you ever seen Sun Wukong look like this? How can you draw it so well? I almost thought Sun Wukong looked like this the first time I saw him!"
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Where have I seen that? This is something I came up with. If you think it's good, that's fine!"
Gu Mian gave a thumbs up and praised, "Excellent! Take this painting, it will be very attractive for the cover! Also, the sentence to be printed on the cover should be the same as what you just wrote! I have to leave first, I have to quickly send it to the bookstore for sample copies."
Lin Xiaoyue stopped Gu Mian and said, "Mr. Gu, it's just a painting. You can ask someone else to deliver it! I'll make some pig's head this afternoon. Come and try it! It's not very valuable, but it's fun!"
Gu Mian stopped and asked curiously, "Pig head meat? Is it the meat from a pig's head? Is this edible?"
Lin Xiaoyue said affirmatively: "Of course! And pig ears, absolutely delicious!"
Gu Mian hesitated for a moment, then looked at Liang Jingyao inquiringly, "Jingyao, what do you think?"
Liang Jingyao held Gu Mian's shoulders and said, "You've been so exhausted these past two days with the restaurant and the publishing house. We haven't had a meal together in a long time. Why don't you stay? I'll have Zhan Hu deliver the food!"
Gu Mian's eyes lit up. He didn't care whether he ate pig's head or not. Liang Jingyao's words just now made him feel very caring! Finally, all his efforts during this period were not in vain!
He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say! Miss Lin, do you need my help?"
Seeing Gu Mian rolling up his sleeves to get to work, Lin Xiaoyue asked jokingly, "Mr. Gu, the kitchen knife is a kitchen knife. Are you sure you can use it as flexibly as you can with a sword?"
Gu Mian was stunned for a moment. He had never been in the kitchen in his life. He shook his head and said, "No, there are other things! Like washing up? Or running errands for you? If you need anything, just tell me and I'll go buy it!"
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "I bought everything this morning, just wait and eat! I'm going to the kitchen!"
