Chapter 240 Xiaoxia, your father and I have conflicting horoscopes
Shen Yumo flipped through the manuscript page by page with a serious expression.
She was completely immersed in the story outlined by Cheng Xuyuan.
In this story, she saw a lot of things that were familiar to her.
Although Cheng Xuyuan performed all these things, Shen Yumo was still deeply moved.
She seemed to see herself before her father returned to work.
My heart is filled with loneliness, the road ahead is long, and there is endless confusion...
A novel of more than 10,000 words is not too long, but through this novel, Cheng Xuyuan has portrayed vivid characters.
Xiao Genbao, who struggles hard for a place to return to the city, Wu Qiong, who feels inferior because of his father but dreams of changing his destiny, and...
"De Ning, what do you think?" After gathering all his thoughts, Shen Yumo asked Zhang Dening.
Zhang Dening said: "It's very well written! Not only are the characters very distinct, but the storyline is also very resonant, and it also shows the urgency of young people to change their destiny..."
Shen Yumo pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, when I heard the news of the college entrance examination last year, I was also very excited. I couldn't believe this sudden happiness..."
The two sat opposite each other, discussing the novel they had just finished reading.
In this discussion, the two people had a spiritual connection and strong resonance on many points.
After discussing the work, Shen Yumo wrote a review.
I don't know if it was because he was particularly touched, but Shen Yumo wrote more than 1,500 words in one breath for the review comments, which are usually considered a lot of 400 to 500 words.
After finishing the review, Shen Yumo rubbed his wrist subconsciously.
Because I was so excited, I finished it in one go without even taking a break.
After reading the review comments, Zhang Dening sighed: "Cheng Xuyuan, this guy, still has a little conscience."
"It's worth the time I spent asking him for the manuscript."
"He really gave me a good manuscript. It really proves what Lao Liu said, that anything produced by Xiao Cheng must be a masterpiece."
Shen Yumo smiled and was about to speak when Zhang Dening said, "Yumo, it was obviously me who asked him for the manuscript, but why did he send it to you?"
Hearing this question, Shen Yumo was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to respond.
She wanted to say that it was probably a coincidence, but it didn't seem to make sense.
After all, both he and Zhang Dening were editors who had close contact with Cheng Xuyuan.
Moreover, Zhang Dening and Cheng Xuyuan contact each other more often.
Yes, why would he send it to himself?
Could it be because of this topic? Although he was full of thoughts, on the surface, Shen Yumo said calmly: "De Ning, this should be a pure coincidence."
Zhang Dening chuckled and said, "This is too much of a coincidence."
"You say, is it because this guy returned to his hometown that he was reminded of the past and his mind is filled with memories of his past life..."
Shen Yumo felt inexplicably nervous. She didn't know how to answer Zhang Dening's guess.
Just when she felt speechless, Xiao Liu, who had already finished reading the novel, suddenly exclaimed: "Sister Dening, Sister Yumo, Xu Lingyun's novel is not only well written, but he may have written it in one go."
Completed in one go? This made Zhang Dening stunned for a moment. The authors she met basically worked hard on their work and polished it thoroughly. How could a novel of more than 10,000 words be hastily created in one go?
"Xiao Liu, don't talk nonsense. How could this novel be written in one go?"
Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Sister Dening, I really am not talking nonsense."
"You can tell by looking at Xu Lingyun's manuscript paper that he must have written it all in one go."
Zhang Dening and Shen Yumo walked over, picked up the manuscript paper sent by Cheng Xuyuan, read it over and over again, with surprise showing on their faces.
Just as Xiao Liu said, Cheng Xuyuan's manuscript not only has no breaks between the lines, but many of the words are also connected to each other, echoing each other, making it look vigorous and powerful, and very beautiful.
Zhang Dening said: "Perhaps this was copied by Cheng Xuyuan."
"He has the manuscript in his own hands!"
Xiao Liu said unconvincedly, "Sister Dening, I don't think it could have been copied. Look here, Cheng Xuyuan clearly made some changes."
"Also here, although he made very few changes, it is impossible to make changes in a copy."
Zhang Dening took a few glances and felt that what Xiao Liu said made sense.
But at this moment, she didn't want to admit that she was wrong, so she said in a deep voice: "Okay, stop talking about these useless things."
"Now that you've finished reading the novel, tell us what you think!"
Xiao Liu coughed and said, "Sister Dening, this novel is very well written. I think it can touch the hearts of young intellectuals like us more than his The Pursuit of Happiness."
"More importantly, through this novel, he expressed a kind of persistence and a kind of change..."
"I think we should tell Sister Zou as soon as possible and apply for this article to be published as soon as possible."
"Because tomorrow is the college entrance examination."
Zhang Dening slapped the table and said, "Xiao Liu, your suggestion is good. This manuscript should be published as soon as possible."
"Yumo, let's go find Sister Zou."
Shen Yumo said: "You can go by yourself, no need to drag me along."
Zhang Dening said, "They sent it to you specially. It's no big deal for me to run over there."
As she spoke, she picked up Cheng Xuyuan's manuscript and ran towards Zou Yanlai's office.
…
On the morning of July 20, outside the gate of Changfeng County No. 1 Middle School, Cheng Xuyuan watched familiar figures enter the examination room.
"Come on!" Cheng Xuyuan said with a smile when a familiar figure walked into the examination room.
"Thank you, Teacher Cheng." The owner of the figure turned around and thanked Cheng Xuyuan.
Cheng Xuyuan waved his hand. At this moment, he was like a teacher sending his beloved student to the examination room.
"Xuyuan, you know so many friends!" Feng Xiaoxia stood aside and exclaimed sincerely.
She came to send Wu Xiaoli to take the exam. After watching her good friend walk into the examination room, she finally felt relieved.
Wu Xiaoli did not give up! She went to take the exam on time.
Hope she will have a bright future.
Cheng Xuyuan was both surprised and felt it was very normal to meet Feng Xiaoxia here.
After all, since her friend came to her for help, Feng Xiaoxia couldn't just ignore her friend before the college entrance examination.
For example, when I had nothing to do, I accompanied Ma Guangzhong and others to the county town to take the college entrance examination.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "It's always good to make more friends."
"By the way, how is Wu Xiaoli doing?"
Feng Xiaoxia said: "Very good, she said that even if she knew she would fail this time, she would try her best."
"Just like you said, she has already achieved her dream!"
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "That's good. Let's wish them good grades then."
As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan glanced at the restaurant not far away and said, "Have you had breakfast? If not, I'll treat you to breakfast."
Feng Xiaoxia glanced at the sunshine in the sky and said with a smile: "Okay, today for Wu Xiaoli, I left home early in the morning."
"In the end, Wu Xiaoli was well fed, but I was still hungry!"
"I know there's a breakfast shop that makes really authentic spicy hot and sour soup. How about we go there and eat?"
After hearing Feng Xiaoxia's suggestion, Cheng Xuyuan almost instinctively blurted out: "We won't meet your father again, right?"
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's words, Feng Xiaoxia blushed and said, "How could it be such a coincidence? My dad had something to do today and he went out a long time ago."
Cheng Xuyuan then realized that there was something wrong with his question. He laughed dryly and said, "The last time I met your dad, I was a little scared."
"Come on, let's go eat."
"By the way, after you went back, your dad didn't ask you anything, did he?"
Feng Xiaoxia glared at Cheng Xuyuan and thought, why are you so afraid of my dad? Although he specializes in dealing with bad guys, you haven't done anything wrong, so why are you afraid of ghosts knocking on the door! "No, my dad didn't say anything after he came home, as if he had forgotten about running into you."
Feng Xiaoxia did not tell the truth.
After she returned home, although her father Feng Chenggang did not force her to ask what was going on with Cheng Xuyuan, he still gave her a lot of advice in a veiled way, reminding her not to be deceived by others.
It is, of course, obvious to whom these advices are addressed.
Cheng Xuyuan and Feng Xiaoxia rode their bicycles and soon arrived at a small shop in the east gate of the county town. At the door stood a wooden sign with the words "Dongfeng Hotel" written on it.
"This is a collective sideline business of the Dongguan Village Brigade." Feng Xiaoxia said, "It only sells spicy soup and fried dough sticks. It is very famous."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "It seems that you are familiar with all the delicious places in our county town!"
"The county town is not big, and I have lived here for more than ten years." Feng Xiaoxia said, "My father likes to eat, so he often takes me out."
At this point, Feng Xiaoxia suddenly said, "I just heard something about you yesterday."
"What's the matter?" Cheng Xuyuan asked nonchalantly.
Feng Xiaoxia said, "I heard that you wrote a thick letter to your ex-wife, and you sent it to the post office with red eyes."
Hearing what Feng Xiaoxia said, Cheng Xuyuan was a little stunned.
I sent the letter with red eyes because I hadn't slept all night.
As for sending the letter to Shen Yumo, it was because she was not only the editor of "Yenching Literature and Art", but also quite meticulous.
I sent the letter to her because I had let go of the past and just regarded her as an editor, nothing more. How could there be so many plots for no reason? Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "I have a lot of feelings from Wu Xiaoli, Ma Guangzhong and others. On the way home, I thought about writing a novel."
"That night, I chatted with Ma Guangzhong and others for a long time. After returning home, I couldn't fall asleep for a long time, so I stayed up all night and wrote a novel."
"In order to publish it as soon as possible, I didn't even have breakfast, ran to the post office, and mailed it to Shen Yumo."
"She is the editor of Yenching Literature and Art, and also my responsible editor."
Feng Xiaoxia was stunned by Cheng Xuyuan's frankness.
She then asked, "What is the content of your new novel?"
Cheng Xuyuan said: "Let's sit down and talk while eating."
As the two were talking, they walked into the restaurant and each ordered a bowl of spicy soup. Just as they were about to start eating, they saw two people walk in from the door.
Walking in front was a young man in his twenties, exuding a shrewd look.
The person walking behind was Feng Chenggang.
Seeing Feng Chenggang, Cheng Xuyuan was stunned for a moment, and then he instinctively asked: "Xiaoxia, is your father and I incompatible? Why did we meet again?"
Feng Xiaoxia was also shocked at this time. She didn't expect that she would be here and meet her father who said he was going to a meeting!
What is going on?
