Chapter 418 This is not just about you
Going abroad is something that many people would love to do!
Going abroad to receive an award is something that people dream of.
But now, in Cheng Xuyuan's eyes, it seemed like he was crazy for doing this.
Is there something wrong with his brain?
Chen Jianxun and others looked at Cheng Xuyuan with suspicion, but in the end, no one spoke.
After all, they have never experienced this kind of thing, so they don’t know how to persuade them.
Most people were drunk that afternoon.
This includes Cheng Xuyuan!
Although he could drink a lot, he was the one being congratulated, and coupled with his words just now that he didn't want to go abroad to receive the award, many people came over and toasted him again.
So much so that in the end, he still got drunk!
Chen Jianxun and others were also quite drunk. Fortunately, there were many empty rooms and places to live in Cheng Xuyuan's courtyard, so everyone went to rest after drinking too much.
At five o'clock at the Yanjing Railway Station, the platform was filled with people seeing off their friends.
Shen Yumo waved goodbye to her family who came to see her off, tears welling up in her eyes.
Although she had a guilty conscience and didn't want to have too much contact with her family, she still felt reluctant to leave.
She will find an excuse not to come back for the New Year.
I don’t know when I will come back next time!
Li Yufei also had tears in her eyes as she said, "Sister, I'll come back to see you."
Shen Yumo hurriedly said: "Yufei, just take care of your own things."
"I'll call home and you from Donghai."
Li Yufei thought that her sister was worried that it would be too hard for her to go to the East China Sea, so she finally nodded obediently.
Shen Yumo said everything she needed to say to her family. She waved her hand and prepared to walk towards the stopped train with Wang Yian.
Just at this moment, someone shouted, "Yu Mo."
Shen Yumo turned around and saw Zhang Dening running towards him.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't come this afternoon?" Shen Yumo said, "It's so far, why are you running back and forth?"
As a friend, Zhang Dening really didn't want Shen Yumo to leave.
The reason why she came here was not only to see her good friend off, but also to see if Cheng Xuyuan would come.
After all, he had already told him that Shen Yumo was leaving. Would he come? When he ran over, Zhang Dening already had all kinds of guesses in his mind.
But now, looking at the people around who came to see him off, Zhang Dening couldn't help feeling disappointed.
Cheng Xuyuan really didn’t come!
"De Ning, what's wrong with you?" Shen Yumo noticed that his good friend's expression was a little strange, so he asked with concern.
"It's okay. I just thought that now that you're gone, I don't know when we'll meet again." Zhang Dening waved at his friend and said, "When you get to Donghai, find a good partner."
"Be sure to bring it back next time we meet."
Shen Yumo laughed at herself in her heart. She knew her current situation and it was not easy to fulfill Zhang Dening's wish.
After all, she was going to give birth to this child.
But looking at Zhang Dening with excitement on his face, Shen Yumo smiled and said, "Okay, I will bring one to you next time I come back."
Shen Yumo's teasing words made Zhang Dening feel a little uncomfortable.
She opened her mouth, wanting to tell Cheng Xuyuan that she had told him the news that Shen Yumo was leaving, but in the end, she said nothing.
As the broadcast sounded, Shen Yumo and Wang Yian finally got on the train together. As the whistle sounded, the train sped forward and soon disappeared.
The people who came to see them off said hello and then started to leave.
Zhang Dening walked with the Shen family. When he walked out of the train station, he heard the sigh of Ma Xiaoli, the sister-in-law of the Shen family.
Shen Yumo seems to be a little fatter than before.
This sentence made Zhang Dening suddenly feel that he was doing too much.
Shen Yumo was able to gain some weight than before, which meant that she had let go of her entanglement with Cheng Xuyuan and started a new life.
Why should I continue to entangle her and Cheng Xuyuan together?
Sometimes I really end up doing more harm than good.
Cheng Xuyuan didn't feel any regret about not seeing Shen Yumo off.
Two people have already started to live different lives, so the best option is to not disturb each other.
After seeing off Zhen Pingwa and other friends who came to Beijing to attend the symposium, he continued his leisurely life.
As the last chapter of "Things About the Ming Dynasty" was completed, Cheng Xuyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had only copied this book, the completion of millions of words still made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Just when he was about to take a few more days off, a phone call called him to Meng Dezhi's office.
Cheng Xuyuan is full of respect for Meng Dezhi.
Not to mention his relationship with Fang Yuqing, the friendship between the two of them really helped Cheng Xuyuan a lot.
When he arrived at Meng Dezhi's office, he saw Meng Dezhi reading a book.
"Uncle, if you have any arrangements, you can't tell me on the phone, and you insist that I come to your office." As Cheng Xuyuan spoke, he picked up the thermos and helped Meng Dezhi fill the teacup.
Meng Dezhi glanced at Cheng Xuyuan, and then said solemnly: "This time I am talking to you about official business, so of course I have to do it in the office."
Cheng Xuyuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Lao Meng would talk to him about business.
"Uncle, what business do we have?"
Looking at the smiling Cheng Xuyuan, Meng Dezhi said, "Xuyuan, I'm not kidding you."
At this point, he picked up the cup and took a sip of water and said, "People's Art Theatre said that Mr. Miller invited you to go to New York to receive the award. Is that true?"
"That's true, but I don't want to go." Cheng Xuyuan said casually.
"The main reason is that the road is too far and it's a waste of time to go back and forth."
Meng Dezhi said: "It is a very honorable thing for you to win the Drama Critics Award."
"So, the higher-ups think you should go and claim the award."
"It's not only a sign of respect for the award given to you, but it's also a good opportunity to showcase our image."
"You should prepare yourself. You will take a flight to Hong Kong in two days, and then transfer to the United States from Hong Kong."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Meng Dezhi who looked serious, and said helplessly: "Uncle, can I not go?"
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan's smiling face, Meng Dezhi said, "How come you are bargaining for such a thing that can achieve multiple goals at once?"
"Do you know why I'm talking to you? It's because you, like Yuqing, both call me uncle."
"Okay, stop bargaining with me here, just go."
Looking at Meng Dezhi's unquestionable expression, Cheng Xuyuan knew that this matter was no longer something he could change.
He sighed and said, "Then I'll listen to you."
Meng Dezhi couldn't help but said, "You know how many people would beg for such an opportunity, but you are still making excuses."
"You should prepare yourself well and be ready to go at any time."
At this point, Meng Dezhi said, "By the way, your aunt has already called Yuqing. You two should come to my place for dinner today."
"It can be considered as my farewell to you."
