Chapter 414 Life should look forward
Li Cunbao and Shen Yumo have a good relationship.
When Cheng Xuyuan was injured while saving Shen Yumo, he also saw Shen Yumo taking care of Cheng Xuyuan in the hospital.
In his eyes, Cheng Xuyuan and Shen Yumo are a perfect match.
But now, the people around Cheng Xuyuan have changed so quickly.
Although she was a girl who was no less beautiful than Shen Yumo, Li Cunbao still felt a little uncomfortable.
He felt that although Cheng Xuyuan had made great achievements, he should not be so irresponsible in relationships. Isn't this just being promiscuous?
However, looking at Fang Yuqing who greeted him enthusiastically, he finally did not ask the question in his mind.
"Xuyuan, your place is really nice." Chen Jianxun looked at Cheng Xuyuan's courtyard and said with a hint of emotion: "When can I live in a place like this? I won't have any more requests in my life."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Jianxun, I'm not staying here tonight. How about you enjoy yourself here for a few days?"
Chen Jianxun said helplessly: "I was just expressing my feelings casually."
"Oh, I really envy you. Everything you write can be published outside. This means you can earn a lot of money."
"I can't do that. Now I can only write some small pieces of tofu."
Cheng Xuyuan patted Chen Jianxun on the shoulder and said, "Jianxun, you are now at the stage of accumulating strength for a great outcome."
"I believe that you will be able to write your own works in the future."
Chen Jianxun suddenly laughed.
Li Cunbao and Chen Jianxun also had a good relationship. He asked with concern: "Jianxun, what's wrong with you?"
"Would you like some water?"
Chen Jianxun waved his hand and said, "Lao Li, I really have nothing to do."
"I just suddenly thought of how come nothing happened to me, and compared myself with Cheng Xuyuan."
"Isn't this just making yourself uncomfortable?"
Hearing Chen Jianxun's self-deprecating words, Li Cunbao also laughed.
Although they have also achieved a lot, comparing everything with Cheng Xuyuan is really making themselves uncomfortable.
There is actually nothing wrong with what Chen Jianxun said.
"Xuyuan, my mother asked me to go home for lunch, so I'll go back first." Fang Yuqing said with a smile after pouring a glass of water for Chen Jianxun and Li Cunbao respectively.
Cheng Xuyuan knew that Fang Yuqing felt that it was a bit inconvenient for him to talk with Li Cunbao and others with her here.
So she went home out of understanding.
Thinking that he also had to entertain these two old friends, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Then I'll take you to the bus first."
As he spoke, without waiting for Fang Yuqing to object, he said to Li Cunbao and the other man, "Jianxun, Lao Li, you two should take a rest first. I'll take Yuqing home and buy some food."
Chen Jianxun waved his hand and said, "Okay, just buy some more delicious food."
After Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing left the house, Li Cunbao hesitated for a moment, but still asked Chen Jianxun softly, "Jianxun, is Fang Yuqing Cheng Xuyuan's girlfriend?"
"Of course, they have been dating for two years, and the whole school knows about it." Chen Jianxun said with a smile: "Everyone thinks they are a perfect match, don't you think so?"
Hearing this question and thinking about Fang Yuqing's situation, Li Cunbao felt that the two of them really deserved this four-word comment.
But what about Shen Yumo?
More than twenty minutes later, Cheng Xuyuan came back with braised dishes and beer.
He arranged the braised dishes, cooled the beer and watermelon with water, and then the three of them started drinking and chatting.
"Xuyuan, I am really grateful to you for this time." Li Cunbao raised his glass and said, "If you hadn't given me the outline, I wouldn't be where I am today."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Li Cunbao with a sincere face and said with a smile: "Old Li, your achievements are all the result of your own hard work."
At this point, he clinked glasses with Li Cunbao and said, "We've said before that if you say this again, we're no longer friends."
"This time, I'll punish you with a glass of wine."
Li Cunbao smiled and said, "Okay, I'll punish you with a glass of wine."
Time passed very quickly as they drank beer and chatted. The three of them could drink quite a lot, and Cheng Xuyuan had other things to do in the evening, so they didn't drink too much.
After eating and drinking, Cheng Xuyuan originally wanted to keep the two people in the courtyard to rest, but Chen Jianxun had something else to do in the afternoon, and Li Cunbao also had to go back to the hotel where he was staying to do some work, so Cheng Xuyuan had no choice but to send the two people away.
After leaving Cheng Xuyuan's house, Li Cunbao and Chen Jianxun each went about their own business.
Chen Jianxun rode away first on his bike, while Li Cunbao went to the "Yenching Literature and Art" not far away.
When he was having dinner with Cheng Xuyuan, he wanted to ask about Shen Yumo's situation several times, but in the end, he suppressed the idea.
He finally decided to ask Shen Yumo what was going on first.
In his contact with Shen Yumo, he learned that Shen Yumo was the editor of "Yenching Literature and Art". This place was not far from "Yenching Literature and Art", so he came here directly.
When he arrived at the editorial office of Yenching Literature and Art, he saw a young girl who was reading a manuscript and mumbling something.
He knocked on the door and said, "Hello, is Shen Yumo here?"
When the young girl heard him say he was looking for Shen Yumo, she was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know Yumo?"
"My name is Li Cunbao. I was friends with Shen Yumo when we were in southern Xinjiang." Li Cunbao hurriedly introduced himself.
The girl was stunned for a moment when she heard Li Cunbao's introduction, then she reacted and asked, "Are you Mr. Li who wrote "The Wreath on the Mountain" with Cheng Xuyuan?"
"It's me." At this time, Li Cunbao admitted his identity very frankly.
After all, he was looking for someone.
The young girl smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Li. I am Zhang Dening from Yenching Literature and Art. I am glad to meet you."
Li Cunbao and Zhang Dening exchanged a few pleasantries and then asked about Shen Yumo's situation.
Zhang Dening said, "Teacher Li, Yu Mo went to Shanghai Literature and Art in Donghai some time ago."
"I have her mailing address here. You can write to her."
Shen Yumo went to Shanghai Literature and Art? What was going on? Li Cunbao remembered that Shen Yumo's home was in Yanjing.
He said in a deep voice: "Editor Zhang, why did Shen Yumo go to Shanghai Literature and Art? Isn't her family from Yanjing?"
Zhang Dening glanced at Li Cunbao, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Li, every family has its own problems."
"The reason why Yu Mo chose to go to Shanghai Literature and Art is that she chose a new life."
"You should ask her some questions in the letter."
Seeing Zhang Dening's embarrassed expression, Li Cunbao knew that if he continued asking, it would be a bit unreasonable.
Just when he was about to turn around and ask again, he heard Zhang Dening suddenly say, "You and Cheng Xuyuan wrote a novel together, so you two must have a good relationship."
"The person who knows the most about this matter is Cheng Xuyuan. You can also ask him what it is."
Although Li Cunbao really wanted to know the reason from Zhang Dening, looking at Zhang Dening's serious expression, he could only nod and agree.
After walking out of "Yenching Literature and Art", Li Cunbao was thinking about how to talk to Cheng Xuyuan and ask this friend whom he admired so much what was going on.
However, what he didn't expect was that when he returned to the hotel and was about to go back to his room, he met two girls in long skirts.
Among these two people, there was Shen Yumo.
Compared with before, Shen Yumo seems to be more energetic, and his thin face looks more spirited.
He immediately said: "Yumo, Shen Yumo."
When Shen Yumo saw Li Cunbao, he was stunned for a moment, then walked over and greeted him: "Brother Li, congratulations."
"You're going to become famous this time."
Li Cunbao smiled and said, "This time I benefited from Cheng Xuyuan's help. If it weren't for him, there might not be such a scene."
Having said that, he glanced at the girl next to him, and Shen Yumo hurriedly introduced the two to each other.
After a few simple greetings, Li Cunbao suddenly said, "Yu Mo, I have a question that I would like to ask you in private. Do you have time?"
Shen Yumo was stunned for a moment, but finally said: "Brother Li, let's go for a walk in the garden."
Wang Yian smiled and said, "Yumo, I'll go see if there's any hot water."
As Wang Yian left, Li Cunbao suddenly asked, "Yumo, what's going on between you and Cheng Xuyuan?"
"I went to his house today and met his girlfriend."
Shen Yumo looked at Li Cunbao's suspicious expression, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Li, the relationship between Cheng Xuyuan and I is a bit complicated."
"Let's put it this way. We were once husband and wife."
"It's just that now, we are divorced."
Having said that, Shen Yumo did not hide anything and told Cheng Xuyuan the whole story about the relationship between him and Cheng Xuyuan.
Listening to Shen Yumo's explanation, Li Cunbao showed a touch of emotion on his face.
He couldn't help but say, "Yu Mo, I think it's a pity for you two."
"You two are a perfect match in terms of temperament and knowledge."
Shen Yumo smiled and said, "Brother Li, if you go the wrong way, there is no going back."
"Thank you for still thinking about me."
Li Cunbao shook his head and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it because he didn't know how to comfort Shen Yumo at this time.
After all, this kind of thing is really hard to say.
Shen Yumo said calmly, "Brother Li, it's fate that we can't be together."
"I'm in the East China Sea now, and I'm doing pretty well."
"Cheng Xuyuan once said that people can't always live in the past. I think what he said is very good."
At this point, she smiled and said, "We should all look forward."
Li Cunbao nodded and said, "Yes, we should all look forward."
Cheng Xuyuan didn't know that Li Cunbao and Shen Yumo were actually staying in the same hotel. After seeing Li Cunbao and Chen Jianxun off, he slept for an hour at home and then rode his bike to Shijingshan.
What Cheng Xuyuan didn't expect was that at this time in Fang Yuqing's house, not only Fang Gengsheng was at home, but Meng Dezhi, whom he hadn't seen for some days, was also there.
Seeing Cheng Xuyuan, Meng Dezhi said in a deep voice: "Xuyuan, you are going to become famous this time!"
“Be sure to prepare well.”
