Chapter 290 Familiar Lights
What is this?
Even if I intervened once because we are relatives, why did you suddenly confess your feelings to me?
Although we are friends, your confession is really hard to accept.
Cheng Xuyuan's heart was full of confusion.
After all, although Li Yufei looked at him a little differently in the past, he deliberately kept his distance, and the two of them slowly became familiar strangers.
But what about now? This encounter allowed Li Yufei to confess to him in the most direct way.
She also made it clear that as long as she and Shen Yumo divorced, she would choose to pursue herself.
Although I won't give her a chance, this kind of thing gives me a headache just thinking about it! I didn't provoke her that much!
Even this time, I can't just watch her suffer.
Thoughts kept surging in his mind, and Cheng Xuyuan's car unconsciously came to the staff quarters of the District Cultural Association.
I seem to have a house here.
Oh, no, I should say, I think I used to have a house here.
However, since he bought a house in the Overseas Chinese Apartment, the house here was given to Shen Yumo to manage.
I don't know whether Shen Yumo stayed here by himself, or...
The moment the car stopped, Cheng Xuyuan looked towards the second floor.
There were lights on in Niu Wanjia's house, which seemed like there was someone at home, which was normal.
The lights were also on in Sister Li's house, and there were people there.
In my own home...
Well, the lights were on in my house, what was going on? Could it be that Shen Yumo had already returned the house?
If that's the case, then there's nothing much to say.
After all, this was Shen Yumo's decision, and it might not be so easy to divide the house in the future.
After all, more and more people will return to the city, and work and housing will become extremely tight in the future.
Although he thought that this was none of his business, Cheng Xuyuan still walked towards the door involuntarily.
At this moment, he really wanted to see who was in the house where he used to live.
Because the weather was getting colder, there were not many people downstairs.
Although the children running around still burst into cheerful laughter from time to time, they had no impression of Cheng Xuyuan.
To them, it doesn’t matter who Cheng Xuyuan is.
Going up the stairs to the familiar second floor, Cheng Xuyuan discovered that the curtains of where he lived were drawn, which made his plan to sneak over to take a look come to nothing.
Forget it! In the choice between visiting Niu Wanjia's home and going back, Cheng Xuyuan finally chose the latter.
Although he still felt a little unwilling in his heart, what could he do now that he knew the truth?
Just when Cheng Xuyuan was about to leave, the door suddenly opened and a woman with two long braids walked out, saying as she walked, "Yu Mo, I'm leaving first."
"I'm telling you, don't get too tired."
“Work is never done.”
Hearing this voice, Cheng Xuyuan was instantly certain that it was Zhang Dening.
At this moment, he quickly turned his head and pretended to be looking at the scenery ahead.
"De Ning, drive slowly on the road." Shen Yumo's voice also sounded at this time.
Along with this voice, Shen Yumo also came out.
Shen Yumo, wearing a light blue coat, looked even more graceful under the dim light, giving people the feeling of looking back suddenly and finding that person in the dimming light.
Zhang Dening said carelessly: "There's nothing to worry about. I don't live far away."
"Speaking of which, we are also a big alley."
"Okay, go back, I'm leaving first."
At this point, Zhang Dening said with a hint of emotion: "Yu Mo, it would be great if you could live here every day, so it would be convenient for me to come to your place."
"What a pity. You only come once or twice a week."
Shen Yumo smiled but did not respond to his friend's question.
As Zhang Dening went downstairs, Shen Yumo also returned to the room and closed the door.
Looking at the closed door, Cheng Xuyuan shook his head and then walked gently downstairs.
Shen Yumo lives here, and this place will have nothing to do with him from now on.
Pushing the bike out, he just arrived at the gate of the family compound. Before Cheng Xuyuan could get on the bike, he heard someone say, "Don't move. Put your hands up!"
Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan was shocked.
Then he felt that the voice of the person speaking sounded familiar. He looked closely and found that it was indeed Zhang Dening.
Then I saw Zhang Dening also pushing a bicycle, with an expression as if to say, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "De Ning, you only know how to play pranks."
Zhang Dening rolled his eyes at Cheng Xuyuan and said, "My prank is much better than someone sneaking into someone else's house, right, Mr. Xu Lingyun, who is becoming more and more famous?"
Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan said helplessly: "De Ning, I was just passing by here, and I saw the house... I saw the lights on there, so I went over to take a look."
"You'd better not talk nonsense here, so as to avoid being misunderstood by others!"
Seeing Cheng Xuyuan, who looked like he was just visiting, Zhang Dening said, "Cheng Xuyuan, don't be so stubborn. You just said you were at home!"
"In fact, you and Yu Mo are a perfect match."
"Otherwise, someone like me who doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs will not get involved in your affairs."
Hearing Zhang Dening say that she didn't like to meddle in other people's business, Cheng Xuyuan showed a faint smile.
"De Ning, I'm telling you, I was just passing by here today, and I saw the lights on upstairs, so I couldn't help but take a look. Please don't make trouble for me."
Cheng Xuyuan said seriously: "Please don't get involved in the affairs between Yu Mo and me."
"It would just make things more confusing."
"You also know that Shen Yumo and I are friends."
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan who looked serious, Zhang Dening said with a smile: "You two are really in tune with each other."
"I talked to Yumo about you today, and Yumo said exactly the same thing as you did. She also told me very seriously that you and she are just friends."
At this point, she said in a deep voice: "You two, I really don't know what to say."
"But I think that the two of you have very similar temperaments."
Cheng Xuyuan said: "If you still want to continue talking about this, then I will leave first."
"No, I was just saying I'd come to see you in the next two days!"
"You know, the higher-ups are planning to hold a national competition for outstanding short stories. Our editorial department has discussed it and is planning to submit both your "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" and "Our College Entrance Examination."
Zhang Dening said: "It's a pity that although your "Desire" is also very good, it is too long."
Cheng Xuyuan didn't have much interest in things like novel selection.
Although he cannot be said to regard reputation as dirt, what is the use of such fame if there is no money to be made.
But since Yenching Literature and Art had recommended it, Cheng Xuyuan was happy to sit back and reap the benefits.
He smiled and said, "Just two entries will do."
Zhang Dening said: "I feel that "Our College Entrance Examination" is still a little bit behind. Of course, if your "The Pursuit of Happiness" did not participate in the competition, it would definitely have no problem winning the award."
"Who told you to enter two works together?"
At this point, she said, “Recently, many authors have returned from outside.”
"We have received more manuscripts."
“I think the next round of selection will be more and more intense.”
"Cheng Xuyuan, you should also write more works!"
Although what Zhang Dening said was true, Cheng Xuyuan felt that she was telling him this purely to urge him to submit his manuscript.
So he smiled and said, "We'll talk about the next term next year."
"Besides, even if I write a short story, I don't necessarily have to give it to you, Yanjing Literature and Art!"
"I have asked Lao Liu to write for me several times."
Listening to Cheng Xuyuan's words, Zhang Dening said, "I heard that the work recommended by People's Literature for this selection is Lao Liu's Class Teacher."
"You are competitors, so you have to be more careful in the future."
Cheng Xuyuan knew that Zhang Dening was just trying to sow discord. He smiled and said, "Dening, if you say that, I will go back and find Xinwu and tell him about you."
Zhang Dening knew that Cheng Xuyuan was joking, so she said without any fear: "Go if you want to. I am honest in my work, so I am not afraid."
At this point, Zhang Dening said: "Our new person in charge is here."
"He thinks highly of you and hopes to have a chat with you in person sometime."
"I think our new person in charge is eager to do something big."
"Two days ago, he encouraged me to collect more manuscripts!"
Cheng Xuyuan's mind came to think of Li Qingquan's experience. He was a capable, qualified and courageous person in charge.
It was under his leadership that Yenching Literature and Art made great progress.
"Okay, I'll go see him in a few days and listen to his teachings."
Zhang Dening said: "Call me before you come. You know the phone number of our editorial department."
As she spoke, she glanced at the sky and said, "Okay, I'm going home."
"Cheng Xuyuan, as a friend, I still want to advise you."
"Shen Yumo is really a very nice girl."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "De Ning, although I won't listen to your advice, I still want to thank you for it."
"It's nice to have a friend like you."
"Go back quickly."
After hearing Cheng Xuyuan's answer, Zhang Dening wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He got on his bicycle and drove towards the alley where his home was.
Cheng Xuyuan didn't stop either, he rode his bike away quickly.
What he didn't know was that just as he and Zhang Dening were riding their bicycles away, Shen Yumo was staring towards the direction of the gate in the corridor on the second floor of the tube building.
Although the dim street lights prevented her from seeing anything clearly, the sight of two figures pushing bicycles made her think of a lot.
Just when Shen Yumo was lost in thought, the door to the next room opened.
Chu Yueqin walked out of the room and saw Shen Yumo who was deep in thought. She smiled and said, "Yumo, what are you thinking about?"
"Sister Yueqin, I didn't think about anything. I just sent De Ning away and wanted to see where she went."
