Chapter 112



Maybe it was because Zhuchuan’s “good” was too concise and to the point. After Chu Li was so angry that she almost broke her precious iPhone 5S, she hugged Ah Xiang’s thigh and went to sleep on the floor at the foot of her bed with a wronged look on her face.

The next day, I bought a spring bed on Taobao for 59 yuan with free shipping, helping my old waist which was almost broken after sleeping on the floor all night because the bed bought by Zhuchuan was spoiled. Chuli stayed in this [two-day] bed for a whole month.

During this month, Chu Chuan went from being "uncomfortable" in early April to being "neither human nor ghost" in late April. He was living a rather dazed life... How can one say that it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality?

Someone had irresponsibly disrupted his unruly lifestyle of the past twenty-eight years and trained him to have a stomach that had to wake up at seven in the morning for breakfast.

Then, without any reason, the breakfast that was served on time every day was suddenly no longer available.

Of course, Zhuchuan was unhappy.

The side effect is that the daily updates make readers cry and wail, and the Weibo posts are littered with corpses...

Finally one day, a reader was forced to swear.

[Fuck banana boat, this idiot author must have been heartbroken, right? ]

I don’t know which words in this unique line of dirty words touched Zhechuan. A few seconds after the comment was replied, Zhechuan, who rarely replied to comments on Weibo, turned it over and left six casual words: Yes, my wife ran away.

Then, as if everything was retribution from God, these six tearful words were responded to with countless strings of cold and ruthless "Hahahaha" and "Hahahahahahahahaha" and "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha" by readers who didn't take them seriously.

"Zhu Chuan is heartbroken, haha" quickly became a topic of ridicule among readers.

Zhuo Chuan was so angry that he didn't update his Weibo the next day. He only posted a "smiling" emoticon on Weibo that somewhat violated the image of "gentle and jade-like Mr. Chuan" and exposed his true nature... and then attracted a new wave of cruel and ruthless ridicule.

Until the afternoon.

An explosive piece of news that is even more eye-catching than "Zhao Chuan Ju Ju is heartbroken" was announced from Yuanyueshe's official Weibo account: Jiang Yucheng will hold his first personal book signing and reader meeting at the G City International Convention and Exhibition Center on May 1st after more than ten years of writing.

——When this news came out, it could be said to be a small explosion in the literary world. From the day the news was announced, the three words "Jiang Yucheng" occupied people's attention with unprecedented strength!

In the literary forum, various posts that mocked Jiang Yucheng for never signing books and being ugly, and those that confidently revealed that Jiang Yucheng was a disabled person, have been dug up and pushed up, with a series of people taking up space below, waiting to see the original poster get slapped in the face!

In a short period of time, other authors in the literary world became quiet as a chicken, because no matter what big news they made to increase their sales at this time, it would not be as big as the one made by Guo Jiang Yucheng...

——The attention to "The Lost Amusement Park" has reached a new height, even higher than that of "The Divine Book of Luo River" which was first available for online pre-sale that year.

On May 1st.

When Li looked at the crowds of people surrounding the Yuanyue Society booth, queuing so long that it was almost impossible to move, and even affected the normal use of the passage, she was relieved. She stood far away, watching the readers standing in the queue, looking up with starry eyes at the Yuanyue Society booth, which was covered with advertisements for the first issue of "The Disappearing Amusement Park" and the new version of "Moonlight" magazine. In the booth, some people who had already queued up were carrying out three or five sets of the new version of "Moonlight" magazine and "The Disappearing Amusement Park" with the mentality of "I would feel at a loss if I didn't buy a few more copies after queuing for so long"...

This atmosphere influenced many readers who originally planned to buy only one set to buy two or more sets...

Liang Chonglang was so delighted that he couldn't stop grinning. At this moment, he was making a phone call to request the warehouse to move some more stock here. He kept saying "there is not enough to sell" and "it's only been an hour in the morning and the stock is almost gone". He wanted to grab a microphone and roar for the whole universe to hear.

All this happened about an hour after the book fair opened, and Jiang Yucheng was standing behind Chu Li at the time.

Looking at everything in front of him, the man seemed to have suddenly returned to seven or eight years ago, when his popularity was still at its peak. The pre-sale of his new book was also so lively. Early in the morning, the queues in the bookstores in the city center stretched to the streets. Booksellers wanted to put up advertising banners on the streets even if they were chased and beaten by the urban management...

He raised his hand and patted Chu Li's shoulder. His hand was broad, thick and strong.

The little girl who was patted on the shoulder by him felt the heaviness on her shoulder. She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at him, and then showed him a brilliant smile——

She said that she also wanted to be a genius catcher like Platinum in the movie, not forcing authors to write about popular themes, not discriminating against authors who are not so famous or have already passed their prime, and not being constrained by secular views...

Just use your own eyes.

Use your own hands.

Create the "sales miracle" yourself.

She said—

【If someone could do it before, now I can do it.】

[If someone has to end the authors' disappointment with editors, it's me...]

[Engrave this determination on your mind, keep it in your heart, and deliver your book to the readers with this feeling——]

She said, please give me a chance.

“…”

Jiang Yucheng looked down at the little girl standing in front of him, smiling brightly at him. He could see the joy of relief in her eyes, which made her dark eyes unusually bright...

Jiang Yucheng paused for a moment. If there was ever a moment when he was truly moved, it was this moment.

It was the kind of feeling where my heart skipped a beat, and I wanted to hug the person in front of me and kiss the corners of her smiling eyes. I was really moved.

However, he only increased the strength of his big hand on her shoulder, letting the warmth pass through the small area of ​​his palm that touched her, trying to convey his feelings to her: gratitude, trust, or something else...

The signing will start at 10 o'clock.

In front of the book signing stand, readers carrying books had almost circled the earth three times.

Jiang Yucheng glanced at the large promotional background of "The Lost Amusement Park" on the autograph booth, and was respectfully invited by Yuanyueshe staff to the backstage lounge. The lounge was already crowded with people, the host was answering questions, and the staff were preparing to collect the small boxes for signing tickets. The whole place was in chaos... One host was holding a large stack of "The Lost Amusement Park" waiting for Jiang Yucheng to sign. Jiang Yucheng frowned and didn't say anything, but Chu Li had already stepped forward and blocked everyone who tried to use the back door with a very tough attitude...

Faced with people's contempt for her being "unreasonable", she did not show even the slightest sign of caring.

Twenty minutes later, the autograph session officially began.

Chu Li followed Jiang Yucheng to the autograph booth, cheering to the readers, "Mad, so handsome," "Who said Jiang Yucheng only has one leg?", "Ahhhh, he's exactly like I imagined him to be."... She pulled out a chair for Jiang Yucheng with a paralyzed face and asked him to sit down. Then, when the readers came up to the booth one by one, she stood beside him. With her head lowered, she opened the book for him to sign according to the place where the reader wanted to sign, and then handed it to the most convenient place for him.

The whole process took two hours in total. Jiang Yucheng sat while she stood.

Apart from the concise instructions of "hurry up", "there are too many people and we may not be able to sign all the documents", and "I will never give you a special visa even if I die", her presence was almost non-existent...

Although in fact she seemed to have been protecting him from the very beginning of the book's creation.

Occasionally, Jiang Yucheng would raise his head and see Chuli tilting her head slightly, looking at him signing attentively with her head down. A strand of hair secretly fell from behind her ear, forming a beautiful arc from her cheek to the corner of her lips...

"Hurry up and sign." Chu Li seemed to feel the man's gaze, and she tapped the book. "Why are you looking at me? There's still half an hour left. How many readers are there?"

The tone was a bit vicious. Jiang Yucheng lowered his head and signed a new name with the corners of his lips raised, sneering.

Chu Li: "..."

Actually, Chu Li had thought about attending a book signing by a celebrity she liked.

I have imagined countless times handing him a book with trembling hands, watching him sign on it, and then screaming like a fool, "Ahhhhh, this is the signature of the master himself, ahhhhh, this is the place that the master just touched"...

Although the reality made her stand closest to the man she liked in the end, she wanted to whip him like Zhou Baopi and tell him to: Sign for me quickly and stop looking around!

The first ceremony also has a girlish heart.

Now her girlish heart made her want to cover her face and find a place to cry for her dead image——

In the midst of mixed emotions, at this moment, she suddenly felt a special gaze from behind the crowd of people at the autograph booth, circling her face...

Uh, at this time, everyone came to see Jiang Yucheng, why would anyone come to see her?

There was a slight delay in Chu Li's action of taking the book handed to her by the reader. She raised her head and took a look, and she saw a tall man wearing a black mask standing far away in the crowd. His brown eyes looked at her calmly through the crowd, and her facial expression could not be seen.

——It’s Chu Chuan.

He actually came.

After not seeing him for a month, his hair had returned to its previous messy, messy shape.

Chu Li: "..."

Chu Li's little heart trembled, and he almost threw the book in his hand into Jiang Yucheng's face.

Jiang Yucheng: “?”

Chu Li blinked and said, "Nothing, hurry up."

The signing had to be extended for two hours due to too many people. Fortunately, the booth was empty during the lunch break, so it didn’t bother anyone.

Chu Li bent over on the stage and acted as a book-flipping eunuch for four hours. When the last reader left contentedly with the book in his hands, she straightened up and almost fainted from exhaustion.

…………………………It seems that signing books is something I can only do once or twice a year, and it’s already exhausting enough.

Chu Li was still wearing high heels. When she was leaving the stage, her waist went weak and she almost missed a step. Fortunately, Jiang Yucheng was quick to grab her waist and supported her. Chu Li turned around and said thank you briefly. Jiang Yucheng smiled faintly and said, "It seems that you have worked much harder than me."

"That's true." Chu Li didn't bother to be polite with him. "Next time, it'll be your turn to stand bent over like a little eunuch for four hours. Oh, my old waist——"

Finally, they successfully completed the battle that had taken them nearly half a year to prepare. Both of them heaved a sigh of relief and walked back to the backstage lounge chatting and laughing. When they opened the door, they saw Chu Chuan sitting inside with a grim face.

Chu Li: "..."

The moment I opened my mouth I wanted to ask you how you got in.

Later I thought, Liang Chonglang has seen this face before. Once the mask is taken off, let alone entering the backstage lounge, I'm afraid that even if he wants to go to heaven, Liang will have to lie down and serve as a stepping stone for him.

At this moment, watching Chu Li and Jiang Yucheng walk in, chatting and laughing, Zhu Chuan's dissatisfaction, which had been aroused since he first stood on the stage and watched her turn the pages of a book for him, was about to overflow...

So intimate.

Look how proud you are of selling two books?

"The Divine Book of Luo River" is not a book. Why didn't I see you jumping up and down and circling around me for four hours on the day I sold it?

When it was confirmed that it was a big hit, I gave it a symbolic hug and shed two crocodile tears.

You were just lying next to him and talking!

I saw it all!!!!

Thousands of words.

Swallowing the mountains and rivers.

Hold on, he's not here to quarrel today.

"Are you done?" He stood in front of her with a cold face, "I'll take you home."

Jiang Yucheng smiled and clapped: "I can't wait."

"Shut your mouth and go out and wait." Zhuochuan glanced at him.

Jiang Yucheng looked at Chu Li meaningfully, gave her a look that said "let's break up right now", turned around, opened the door and went out, and then Chu Li and Zhuochuan were the only ones left in the room during the entire break... In fact, Chu Li really wanted to follow Jiang Yucheng and run away - if Zhuochuan hadn't been filled with a dangerous aura that said "if you dare to leave, I will break your legs".

Chu Li looked at the direction Jiang Yucheng left with regret, and watched the door close: "Well, I have other work to do--"

Zhuchuan: “…”

Hold on.

Really, I can't be angry.

"What did I do to you? Is it necessary for you to stay away from home for a month just because of playing a game?" The man looked depressed. "I didn't come to you on my own initiative today. What excuse are you going to make to continue staying at your colleague's place?"

“…”

"Or are you not going to make excuses at all and just live like this for the rest of your life?"

"..." Chu Li took a small step back, "...it doesn't matter where I live."

"What did you say?"

"What difference does it make to you if there's one less person or one more person living upstairs?"

"..." The man's chest rose and fell visibly. "I haven't seen you for a month, and you're talking to me like this. Do you want to record it and listen to it yourself to see if it can make me angry to death? Forget it, I won't talk nonsense with you here. Let's talk about it when we get back."

As the man spoke, he tried to hold back his anger and reached out to grab her wrist, but she took a step back, her eyes reddening: "Why are you going back? That's your house. What does it have to do with me that you need to use the word 'go back'? What is our relationship——"

“………………”

I can't bear... a few hairs.

If you keep on enduring, you’ll be pissed to death!

"What the hell, I'm not your boyfriend?!!!"

"Bullshit! Who admitted it!" Chu Li also raised her voice, "My boyfriend is Mr. L!!! Is online dating okay!!!"

"What the hell is Mr. L? You're going to keep playing this joke until next year's Chinese New Year, right?! I am Mr. L!"

"You, you are a piece of shit!!! Zhuchuan, I'm warning you, don't just open your mouth!"

"You don't believe it, right?" Zhuo Chuan was so angry that he wanted to jump up. If he hadn't been reluctant, he would have really wanted to beat up the man in front of him. "If you don't believe it, ask yourself!"

Chu Li stared at Zhu Chuan, took out her phone as if to protest, tapped Q, tapped a familiar avatar, and typed quickly with her fingers moving——

[The monkey’s hired navy: Where are they? ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ]

There was silence for two seconds.

Chu Li saw from the corner of her eye that the man in front of her picked up his phone, typed a few words, and then raised his head to look at her the moment he sent the message. At the same time, the phone in her hand also vibrated -

[The disappeared Mr. L: In front of you! ]

Chu Li raised her head and looked over the phone at the man standing in front of her. Her face turned pale, then red, then pale again, and finally turned a dismal green. Her eyes gradually widened in panic.
