You are about to pass away!!!
Chu Li didn't know where the deep hatred and resentment between Mr. L and Yuanyue Society came from. Was it that Yuanyue Society owed him royalties and didn't pay him, or was it that Yuanyue Society was so blind that it rejected Mr. L's manuscript?
Chu Li didn't dare to ask, so he could only send him a bunch of "...", and fell back on the bed to continue sleeping. However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he thought of that vixen face and couldn't fall asleep... He had no choice but to open his eyes again and sit up, grabbing Mr. L to continue chatting. Because he could see that he was not interested in Yuanyue Society, Chu Li directly changed the topic -
【The water army hired by Monkey: Oh, by the way, there is another interesting thing. I seem to have met an author after the interview today, hahahahahaha! It’s a man, he looks decent and handsome, but in private, he was rolling around with his editor in the editorial office... Oh, I don’t know which big guy he is. You can’t judge a person by his appearance. On the surface, everyone is cute on Weibo, but in private, tsk tsk tsk.】
[The navy hired by the monkey: Unlike Chuchuan, Chuchuan people are super gentle. ]
There was a quick reaction there. It was hard to imagine why a man would be so interested in such a gossipy topic.
[The disappeared Mr. L: ...gentle? ]
[The disappeared Mr. L: Did you meet a perverted author? ]
[The disappeared Mr. L: This is nothing new. When you become an editor, you will find that there are few normal people among those writers and illustrators——]
[Disappeared Mr. L: To be honest, I am surprised why you are still talking about this as "an interesting thing". Have you forgotten how we met? ]
Chu Li: "..."
Mr. L, male, about 30 years old, single, unknown occupation, unknown income, unknown appearance, unknown voice - after meeting Chu Li three years ago, this pure, loving and unremarkable online social relationship has lasted for three years without any problems.
...To tell how Chu Li got to know Mr. L, we have to start with a certain bloody painter named Ju Ju.
…
Three years ago.
Chuli was a freshman in college that year. Her freshman life was nothing more than playing online games in her dorm room. Unfortunately, she came into contact with a large-scale oriental fantasy online game called "X" that sucked up all her living expenses... As she played the game, she naturally began to pay attention to the peripheral fan fiction related to the game. So one day, when she was scrolling through Weibo, she suddenly saw a fan art of the "X" game settings transferred to her homepage. The picture was forwarded about a thousand times, and everyone below was sighing -
[Wow! Even better than the official art book! ]
[Oh my god, someone actually likes this cold couple QAQ]
[The author is great, and becoming a god is just around the corner]
…
The picture was indeed good. Chu Li clicked in to take a look. The artist was a small artist with just over 3,000 fans named "繭". Because the fan art she accidentally posted was forwarded more than 1,000 times, she even posted a Weibo to express her special happiness and said that she would work hard to produce more food in the future...
The CP drawn by this artist is indeed quite unpopular. No one has ever associated these two protagonists together. Chu Li clicked on the follow button and began to follow the works of this artist. She even set the first picture she drew as her mobile phone wallpaper.
In the past six months, I have followed her and become a crazy fan of this artist. I have watched her with my sick eyes go from being a small artist with only a few single-digit comments on Weibo and a few thousand fans, to a small tentacles with thirty, forty, or even forty thousand fans per comment... At this time, Chu Li has become the moderator of the sub-forum of this cold CP special forum.
The forum she managed was nothing more than watching people posting and no one causing trouble. It had been peaceful until one day, when a guy named [Mr. L] appeared.
That day happened to be the day when the artist Shouyou posted a new fan art. The protagonist A was riding a horse with an umbrella made of lotus leaves, and the protagonist B was standing under the horse, leading the horse. The two were looking at each other, with a gentle breeze and drizzle... It was very artistic.
Based on this picture, Mr. L expanded the scene and wrote a short fan fiction. It tells the story of a killer named A who never wears night clothes but only white clothes. He meets a gentle scholar named B and is moved by his true love. He retires from martial arts and gives up his martial arts. From then on, he and B live in seclusion in the mountains. The last scene of the story is A sitting on a horse and saying to B who is holding the horse below: "Do you want to enjoy the world, gallop on the battlefield or become famous? I'd rather give you a horse and a boat."
The writing was so good that it caused quite a stir in the forums for a while.
Oh my god, Leng CP actually has food again!
Everyone was very excited, even the artist himself was very excited, he posted a Weibo saying that he didn't expect that a writer would write a story for the contact diagram he drew, he was really very happy... As a crazy fan, Chu Li saw that his big brother was so happy, so he decisively added L's post to the favorites. L was also very happy to be added to the favorites, so he said that in the future, if the artist drew a picture, he would write one, and they would swear to each other forever.
At this point, the entire AB cold CP circle was shocked three times.
Chu Li got to know Mr. L from that day on.
Using the identity of a moderator, I added Mr. L on QQ. I found out that he was a man, but I didn't think much about it. We chatted for a while about this unpopular CP and the painting of the hand-curled bamboo flute. We both found that we had very similar interests. In addition, Chu Li was selfish. In order to keep this writer with excellent writing skills, who didn't know if he was exhausted or how he had the time to write texts for his favorite painter, he would flatter him from time to time. The sentence he used most often was: Zhu Chuan likes to write about male protagonists in white clothes, and his writing style is also from the delicate to the grand. Brothers, you two are at least 50-50.
(At least from Chu Li’s point of view) Mr. L seemed to be quite happy being flattered by her. The two of them, one in charge of writing posts and the other in charge of adding them to the featured posts, dominated the small forum section for a while. The two of them sang in unison, and the popularity of the forum section managed by Chu Li gradually increased...
Then one day, the official released a new game expansion pack, and in the new expansion pack, the official gave out some sweets, and it turned out that A and B were really a couple!
All of a sudden, the number of AB's fans increased dramatically, and Huashouquan's Weibo fans increased from 30,000 to 50,000 to 100,000 to several hundred thousand. The forum managed by Chuli also became a super popular forum, with countless people writing articles for the couple AB every day. However, Mr. L's status remained unchanged because of Chuli's presence. The only thing that remained unchanged was that Mr. L only wrote articles for Huashouquan's pictures from beginning to end, and Chuli only featured Mr. L's articles.
At that time, Chu Li actually thought that the days would be so lively, noisy, harmonious and friendly. As the AB circle became more and more popular, the then unknown artist Ju Ju became a big artist with more than 800,000 fans, and cooperated with the game "X" to publish an official art book, which sold thousands of copies...
Until one night, a turning point came. Someone made a big news and posted a bunch of QQ chat records to all sections of the forum.
It turns out that all the content inside is the artist complaining about his relatives and friends.
[I just casually drew a CP picture. Someone asked me to draw it for a personal magazine. I received 300 yuan and posted it on Weibo. It was retweeted more than 1,000 times! ]
…
[The number of fans has also increased by several hundred. It's too easy to increase the number of fans! Why are there so many stupid fans of the game "X"? I want to get into it too. It's okay to fool some fans. Hahahahahaha. I seem to have seen a way to make money! ]
…
[I feel so disgusted when I draw this CP AB. Actually, BC is my true love, right? I like BC more. ]
…
【Damn, AB is actually the official pairing. Could it be that my pictures were so popular that they gave the official idea? 23333333! BC fans are going to cry. Why do I feel like I am committing a sin? This must be retribution.】
…
[Of course it’s for money, but what else, is it for love? ]
…
【I love BC. 】
From the beginning till now, there have been all kinds of comments disliking AB Xipi, disliking AB Xipi's fans, and saying things like "is this for money or love?" and other crazy things... There are so many stupid things and the evidence of their crimes is so strong that the moderators can't delete them all!
This resulted in the artist Shousou waking up from a nap to find that everything had changed. Previously, when she opened her Weibo, all the comments were "You are so great" and "Please draw more", but suddenly they were all replaced by "Shameless", "Money-hungry", "Unfollowing" and so on. Among the 10,000 comments on her Weibo, 8,000 were greetings to her ancestors, and the remaining 2,000 were farewells from disappointed fans who had turned against her.
Overnight, AB Big Hand Coil became a rat crossing the street, and everyone wanted to beat the Coil Queen; her fans who insisted on being her fans were also labeled as having the Stockholm syndrome, and were despised by everyone...
Chu Li and Mr. L were speechless, huddled together in a corner and shivered.
Chu Li only remembered that she sighed at that time -
[The Monkey’s hired naval forces: I am only saying this to you, I am not afraid that you will scold me for having Stockholm syndrome. I think that even if it is so, it does not prevent me from using the paintings of the cocoon as my mobile phone wallpaper. ]
That day, Mr. L was silent for a long time, and then about three hours later he answered her with three words: Me too.
So far.
The revolutionary friendship of the shameful Stockholm General Assembly was thus thoroughly established.
That was the first time that Chu Li saw that the cute boy in her mind had such an ugly side. Cracks appeared in her world view, but it was strong and did not break. The super glue that barely glued them together was called "Mr. L"... and it was very effective and lasted for three years.
…
now.
Chu Li was overwhelmed with emotion when the past was brought up all of a sudden. So, she couldn't help but confess her feelings to L again despite his sarcasm.
[The water army hired by Monkey: Yes, it really is... Thinking about the Queen of the past, I don’t know what she is like now. I unfollowed her on Weibo. It’s sad to see her.]
[The disappeared L: Still alive, an original ancient style master, with millions of Weibo fans, a picture of her costs tens of thousands of yuan and people have to queue up, and the number of people cursing her and praising her on Weibo is about half and half. ]
[The Monkey’s hired trolls: Then will you still write for her? ]
【The disappeared Mr. L: What the hell is this? The person who marked my post as a favorite is no longer here. 】
“The one who would add Mr. L to the favorites” was naturally referring to Chu Li. Such a casual remark easily moved Chu Li to the point of being completely moved. He couldn’t help but sigh—
[The Monkey’s hired navy: Mr. L, you are truly the last conscience in this chaotic world. Keep your kindness and innocence. Come on!]
[The disappeared Mr. L: …]
The topic of Lady Xun was brought up lightly, which aroused Chu Li's emotion and then was quickly passed over. Chu Li chatted with Mr. L about other random things and unexpectedly stayed up all night until morning. When the sun rose outside, Chu Li got out of bed, washed his face, and went downstairs to have breakfast.
Then she received a call from Yuanyue Society, congratulating her on passing the interview and officially becoming a member of Yuanyue Society.
When she received the call, Chu Li was drinking porridge pretentiously with a small spoon in her hand. After thanking him, she hung up the phone. She stood there holding the spoon for about thirty seconds, then threw the spoon back into the bowl. She raised her head and looked around.
There was no one to hug her and cheer with.
So I had to log into QQ with trembling hands to find her original intention——
【The navy hired by the monkey: I, I, I, I, I was accepted aaaaaaaaaaaaaa! 】
【The missing Mr. L: Oh, Tsinghua or Peking University? 】
[The navy hired by Monkey: Get lost! Yuanyue Society!!!]
[The disappeared Mr. L: ………………You idiot, a publishing house that is about to go bankrupt makes you so happy, be careful that it will announce that everyone should stand at attention, stand at ease, and disband on the spot before it can even pay your first month's salary.]
At this time, Chu Li certainly didn't care about Mr. L's repeated cold water. She only knew that she was really going to work in the publishing house she had always dreamed of.
She will have an autographed photo of Chu Chuan!
...Mr. L is just jealous!
