Chapter 151 It’s a pity that you are not destined to be together
Shen Yumo could imagine how surprised Cheng Xuyuan was when he saw the large sack of letters.
However, Cheng Xuyuan actually has a beautiful girlfriend.
This was something Shen Yumo never expected.
She didn't expect that after just one month of not seeing him, Cheng Xuyuan already had a girlfriend! This was beyond her expectations and she couldn't believe it.
But she also knew that Zhang Dening had no reason to lie to her about this matter.
Although she had given up on Cheng Xuyuan a long time ago, or had never considered the possibility of getting together with him, she felt very uncomfortable when he wanted to date another girl.
She sadly realized that from now on, the man who once loved her so much would end their relationship, and she could only watch him go further and further away, and they would be completely separated!
Shen Yumo had mixed feelings. She examined her relationship with Cheng Xuyuan for the last time. She felt that the river of her emotions would not calm down for a while.
Just when she didn't know how to respond to Zhang Dening, she heard Zhang Dening say, "That girl is pretty good-looking, and she's studying Chinese."
Chinese Department! Shen Yumo was shocked when he heard the news.
She asked anxiously: "De Ning, is that girl's surname Li?"
Zhang Dening looked at Shen Yumo in a daze, then replied, "No, that girl's name is Fang Yuqing."
"Why do you think that girl's last name should be Li?"
Shen Yumo breathed a sigh of relief.
I just hope she’s not my sister.
From her interactions with her sister, she realized that her sister admired Xu Lingyun very much.
Once there is even a tiny spark of such admiration, it is likely to spread like wildfire and burn fiercely between the two young people.
So, when I heard Zhang Dening's denial, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she felt vaguely that she was not so happy. She stared blankly at the pile of documents on the desk, her mind blank.
Facing the puzzled Zhang Dening, she hesitated for a moment and said, "I... I have a friend named Li, who is studying Chinese at Yenching University."
"She's pretty, too."
"Hearing you say that, I thought it was her!"
Zhang Dening didn't have any doubts. After all, beautiful girls always like to be friends with beautiful girls.
For example, this is the case with her and Shen Yumo.
"Fang Yuqing is not only beautiful, but also has a very high emotional intelligence." Zhang Dening said: "In the future, she will definitely be a good helper to Cheng Xuyuan."
"For example, this time, Chen Jianxun and his team wanted to restore the literature club at Yenching University."
“And we also received support from the school.”
"Under this circumstance, Chen Jianxun and his team wanted to use Cheng Xuyuan's appeal to make the reconstruction of the literature club smoother."
"It will also restore the influence of the literary club more quickly."
At this point, Zhang Dening said: "So they wanted to nominate Cheng Xuyuan as the president, but Cheng Xuyuan flatly refused."
The Literature Society of Yenching University is a legendary name to Shen Yumo.
In her opinion, the president of the Yenching University Literature Society is someone whose name is to be remembered.
But now, Cheng Xuyuan actually refused such an invitation.
How is this possible? She couldn't believe it, but Zhang Dening didn't need to lie at this time.
Just as her thoughts were surging, she heard Zhang Dening continue, "Just when I felt sorry for Cheng Xuyuan and Chen Jianxun was unhappy, Fang Yuqing proposed that Cheng Xuyuan be just a figurehead and not take care of anything."
"Be an honorary president."
"This is a really great idea. It not only brings Cheng Xuyuan fame, but also solves Chen Jianxun's problem!"
Shen Yumo pondered for a moment and said, "It's really good."
"This Fang Yuqing is very good."
Zhang Dening waved his hand and said, "Next time I go to Yenching University, you come with me and meet Fang Yuqing."
"She seems like a very easy-going girl."
Shen Yumo hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's see the time."
After chatting for a while, Zhang Dening poured himself a glass of water and said, "Originally, I wanted to introduce you to Cheng Xuyuan."
"This way, I can find you a good partner and urge that guy to write articles, killing two birds with one stone."
"It wouldn't be like what happened now. Without paying attention, Liu Xinwu poached a manuscript."
"What a pity, you two are not destined to be together!"
Shen Yumo didn't expect Zhang Dening to say such a thing. She hurriedly said, "De Ning, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Zhang Dening waved his hand and said, "I'm not talking nonsense."
"Cheng Xuyuan is a very prolific author. Just look at how much he has earned in this period of time, which is equivalent to what we would have earned in two or three years."
"It's such a shame to throw away such a potential stock with both diploma and ability!"
Shen Yumo felt empty when she heard the words "potential stock". It seemed like she married him yesterday. To her, it was still fresh in her memory; but to him, it had become very distant! Cheng Xuyuan is now a well-known author and a student at Yenching University.
There is no lack of fame, fortune and money.
"De Ning, what are you talking about?" Zhao Jinjiu walked in from the next room and asked.
Zhang Dening has great respect for Zhao Jinjiu, the head of the novel group.
She hurriedly said, "Teacher Zhao, I was just talking about Xu Lingyun."
"Didn't I send him a letter today?"
Zhao Jinjiu nodded and said, "How was Xu Lingyun's college life?"
“I think he enjoys this life.”
Zhang Dening said: "He has already written 30,000 to 40,000 words for his new novel."
"Then give it to him. We'll help him check it first." Zhao Jinjiu's eyes lit up and he said with a smile.
Zhang Dening said, "Team Leader Zhao, you know that Cheng Xuyuan has already agreed to Liu Xinwu's commission for this novel."
"It will be published in the first issue of their new publication."
Zhao Jinjiu said with regret: "This Liu Xinwu has poached people and ended up poaching us."
"I'll give him a lesson later!"
At this point, he turned to Shen Yumo and said, "Yumo, please write an application later. We need to use more paper this month."
Shen Yumo was not quite clear about the implications of using more paper, but Zhang Dening understood.
She looked up and asked, "Why, do we need to print more?"
"When this issue was released, 50,000 more copies were printed."
Zhao Jinjiu said: "Xinhua bookstores in various places have called and said that our latest issue has been sold out, and there are still many people who want to buy it."
"According to the statistics, we need to print at least 100,000 more copies this time."
Zhang Dening's eyes widened when she heard the number of 100,000 copies. She calculated and said, "Doesn't this mean that the sales of this issue of Yanjing Literature and Art will almost reach 500,000 copies?"
The sales of "Yenching Literature and Art" have always been very stable, but with the publication of "The Pursuit of Happiness" and "Desire", the sales of "Yenching Literature and Art" began to rise continuously.
Zhao Jinjiu smiled and said, "Five hundred thousand should be no problem. I just got here from Editor-in-Chief Zou. We estimate that based on the current popularity of Desire, the next issue should sell even more."
"So we have to prepare for a rainy day."
"We can't let the lack of paper delay sales."
Zhang Dening said: "Then I will go and prepare in advance."
Zhang Dening and Zhao Jinjiu started writing the application while discussing, while Shen Yumo sat at his desk, thinking about the conversation he had just had with Zhang Dening.
He has a new partner, he seems to be successful, he...
However, this spiritual pillar and support that I once regarded as the most important has now been taken away by the new life.
The great hand of fate once again made a fair judgment on their destiny.
Thinking of this, the waves in Shen Yumo's heart gradually subsided.
Fortunately, his target is not Yu Fei, otherwise...
Cheng Xuyuan didn't know that as soon as Zhang Dening returned to the editorial office, he started talking about him.
After finding the sack of letters, he had originally planned to put it under his bed and then take it back to his residence on Sunday.
As for the content of the letter, I will read it when I have time.
As for what to do if he couldn't finish reading it in a short time, Cheng Xuyuan didn't consider it.
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's attitude, Fang Yuqing offered to help Cheng Xuyuan read the letter.
She would put aside the letters that she didn't need to pay attention to, and only let Cheng Xuyuan read the letters that she thought were very important to him.
By doing a preliminary selection, Cheng Xuyuan can save a lot of effort.
However, doing so would also take up a lot of Fang Yuqing's energy.
Cheng Xuyuan tried to persuade Fang Yuqing, but Fang Yuqing said that she had plenty of time besides studying, so she might as well help Cheng Xuyuan screen them.
Seeing Fang Yuqing's determination, Cheng Xuyuan finally delivered the letters to Fang Yuqing's dormitory.
Boys were rarely allowed into the girls' dormitory, so this time Cheng Xuyuan was allowed to enter the girls' dormitory carrying a sack.
Cheng Xuyuan was not used to being stared at by the girls passing by, so he said a few words to Fang Yuqing, then hurriedly put down the sack and ran away.
Fang Yuqing sent Cheng Xuyuan to the door and watched his figure disappear before she smiled silently.
Humming a melodious tune, she took out a stack of letters from the sack beside the bed.
"Xu Lingyun himself!"
Looking at the beautiful handwriting, she couldn't help but smile. It seemed that this was another female reader.
However, when she tore open the letter, not only did several pieces of folded letter paper fall out, but also a black-and-white photo.
In the photo, there is a girl with pigtails, looking shyly ahead.
What does this mean? Just discuss literature, why send photos?
Fang Yuqing glanced at the letter while talking to herself, and then threw it aside...
Time flies, and Sunday is here in a blink of an eye.
For college students, Sunday is a rare day.
Although most people still choose to stay in the library, some people also choose to go shopping in the city and buy what they need.
Cheng Xuyuan was very busy this Sunday. In addition to going to Meng Dezhi's house for dinner, he also had to go to the People's Art Theater to see how the actors they had chosen for "The Pursuit of Happyness" were.
In addition to these, he also planned to visit Mr. Wan.
During the work seminar, Mr. Wan had already given him a lot of help.
As a disciple that Master Wan has promised to accept, I must go and visit my teacher.
For this visit, Cheng Xuyuan had originally planned to buy some snacks. After all, for him now, although he has a savings of a thousand yuan, his purchasing power is really limited when buying things here requires not only money but also tickets.
But on Saturday night, Fang Yuqing brought him half a pound of tea, saying it was the latest Longjing, and asked Cheng Xuyuan to take it over.
When Cheng Xuyuan asked Fang Yuqing where she got the Longjing tea from, the answer she got was that she got it from home.
This Longjing tea was a gift given to Fang Yuqing's father by someone else. When Fang Yuqing saw it when she returned home, she just took it.
Finally, Cheng Xuyuan brought the half pound of tea to the residence of Mr. Wan in Muxidi.
After making a phone call to verify his identity, Cheng Xuyuan came to Mr. Wan's residence. As soon as he knocked on the door, it opened silently. A woman in her thirties was looking at Cheng Xuyuan with curiosity.
"Are you Xu Lingyun?" The woman asked with a smile before Cheng Xuyuan could greet her.
"If my dad hadn't told me you were coming over, I wouldn't have believed that Xu Lingyun was so young!"
The second update is here today, please support me, there will be three updates tomorrow!
