Chapter 115 I'll Recognize You Even If I Turn into Ashes
Jiang Niaoniao paused, as if hesitating.
Seeing her hesitation, Xu Nuo smiled and turned to leave.
In addition to her work in the hospital, she also cooperates with publishing houses, and she is not obligated to do the illustration work.
Before, Jiang Niaoniao had always wanted to meet her and discuss this job with her.
Now, when they met, she was hesitant again, and Xu Nuo felt that she didn't have to do it.
"Wait." Seeing that she was about to leave, Jiang Niaoniao hurriedly stopped her, "Don't leave yet."
Xu Nuo turned around and said, "Ms. Jiang, you should think about it first. If you have made up your mind, you can decide whether to cooperate with me. I am in a hurry to go home and I don't have time to waste here with you."
"Xu Nuo. You are the illustrator I'm looking for." Jiang Niaoniao blurted out.
Yes.
Xu Nuo was the illustrator she was looking for.
Before, she saw the medical science comic book that Xu Nuo published, and she thought it was a coincidence and that it was probably different people with the same name.
So, she didn't ask too much about Xu Nuo's personal information.
She just wanted an illustrator, so there was no need to investigate his background.
"Well, now that we've decided, let's sit down and talk."
Jin Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the two people were finally going to sit down and talk.
She was really afraid that the talks between the two people would break down and she wouldn't even be able to get a cup of tea.
Since it has been confirmed that the promise will be made, Jiang Niaoniao will not be vague.
She got straight to the point and said, "I've seen your comic book, and I really like your drawing style. I happen to have two very popular children's story books that need illustrations, and I hope you can do it."
After saying that, she took out two printed books from her bag and handed them to Xu Nuo.
Xu Nuo took the book and simply flipped through a few pages.
Jiang Niaoniao continued, "Not only domestic ones, but also translated books from abroad. If your illustration style is diverse, we can also consider cooperation."
As she was talking, Xu Nuo quickly finished reading.
"Okay, I agree."
If it is a children's book, the style will be simpler and not too ornate or complicated.
Such illustrations are relatively simple and quick to draw, and won’t take up too much time.
"That's great." Jiang Niaoniao really appreciated Xu Nuo's point. Soon, she told Xu Nuo the price. "The illustrations in children's books are relatively simple. One illustration costs three yuan, and a set costs about fifty or sixty yuan. I have two or three sets of similar storybooks on hand. You can try drawing first."
Xu Nuo took the book handed over by Jiang Niaoniao and stuffed it directly into his bag: "I'll give you an account number. If you want to settle the payment later, just transfer it directly to my account."
Jiang Niaoniao: "Okay, I'll leave you my address. When your manuscript is ready, you can mail it to me. Once it's accepted, I'll remit the money to you immediately."
"make a deal."
“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
"Now that we've finished discussing business, I'll go back first." Xu Nuo didn't have much to say to Jiang Niaoniao, and was about to leave after discussing business.
"The tea in this teahouse is pretty good. It would be a shame if you leave without having two cups."
"No, I'm not that interested in drinking tea."
Seeing that Xu Nuo was determined to leave, Jiang Niaoniao really couldn't beat around the bush.
"Xu Nuo, I want to ask you something. Is Lu Cheng also serving as a soldier here?"
Hearing her say this, Xu Nuo's mouth curled up: "Yes, Lu Cheng has a fracture, do you want to go see him?"
"Broken bone?" Jiang Niao Niao was startled. "How could he have a broken bone?"
"Soldiers have a lot of field training, so it's normal to have broken bones. Why? Didn't he tell you?"
Jiang Niao Niao lowered her eyes to hide the disappointment in her eyes: "No. We haven't been in touch for a while."
To be specific... since our last argument.
"Oh." Xu Nuo had no intention of interfering with other people's feelings, but she still reminded Jiang Niaoniao, "If you want to go see him, you need to apply in advance."
"Okay, I will. Thanks for reminding me."
"You're welcome. If you don't have anything else I'll leave now."
Jiang Niao Niao stood up: "Okay then, keep in touch."
"Nono, are you leaving now?" Jin Yue said, "I still want to have tea with you."
"Yes, I have something to do at home. I can't drink tea with you today. I will treat you to tea when I make money later."
"In that case, I'll go with you." Jin Yue and Jiang Niaoniao had only known each other for a short time, and she would rather stick with Xu Nuo than with Jiang Niaoniao.
The two people came out of the teahouse and went to look for the bus stop.
Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, the two saw a group of people gathered on the side of the road, and they didn't know what they were doing.
Jin Yue was a person who loved to join in the fun. Seeing that there were many people ahead, she said to Xu Nuo, "Wait for me a moment. I'll go check out the situation."
Xu Nuo waited for her patiently.
Jin Yue squeezed into the crowd for a long time and finally got in. She saw a girl with freckles all over her face selling braised chicken.
A braised chicken is not cheap, so a group of people gathered together, two people bought a chicken together, and each person got half a piece.
Jin Yue also wanted to buy a chicken, but one chicken was too much, and she wanted to buy half a chicken, so she squeezed out of the crowd and called Xu Nuo.
"Nono, let's buy a chicken together. She only sells whole chickens, and the price is not cheap, so I want to buy it with you."
Xu Nuo thought that tomorrow was Lu Chen's birthday, and her mother-in-law Cheng Wanying would also be coming over tomorrow, so she should buy some cooked food and prepare it.
"Okay." She agreed, "Then let's buy one together."
"Walk."
Jin Yue was very good at squeezing, so she pulled Xu Nuo into the crowd.
She rushed to the front and said to the freckled girl, "Give me a chicken and cut it in half, so we can each have half."
The freckled girl was about to agree when she looked up and saw Xu Nuo standing next to Jin Yue.
He swallowed the words of promise and said, "You two should line up."
"What? Queue up? Your queue is so chaotic. We'll sell it to whoever pays." Jin Yue took out five yuan from his pocket and said, "Here, give it to us first."
"Then I won't sell it to you." said the freckled girl with a straight face.
"Why? We haven't offended you, have we? I just want to buy a chicken, why do you treat us like this?" Jin Yue really couldn't understand.
"Do you really want to buy it?" asked the freckled girl.
"Of course. If I don't want to buy it, why would I join in the fun?"
The freckled girl said, "Okay, then I'll only sell you half."
When Xu Nuo heard this, she thought, is this directed at her?
She was also puzzled: "What about me? I want half one too."
The freckled girl said, "I won't sell it to you."
Xu Nuo was puzzled.
She didn't have any conflict with this girl. When they met for the first time, this girl cut in line with her and rushed to get off the car without any hesitation and pushed her aside.
She didn't say anything?
At the moment, she was full of hostility towards her, which made Xu Nuo puzzled.
“Why don’t you sell it to me?”
“I don’t want to sell it.”
Hearing her say this, Xu Nuo was even more confused: "Did I steal your man?"
"No."
"Took your job?"
“Neither do I.”
"Then why don't you sell it to me?" Xu Nuo looked confused.
The freckled girl glared at Xu Nuo and said, "You are such a forgetful person. Xu Nuo, don't you recognize me? But I know you. Even if you turn into ashes, I will still recognize you."
