When Shi Shuqiu found Fang Hanlin and Ji Shaofei, Ji Shaofei had just blurted out such a disrespectful remark.

After Ji Shaofei finished speaking, he saw Shi Shuqiu, pushing his bicycle through the bushes of kumquat trees and coming to his side. The bicycle chain made a faint sound announcing his arrival.

When ordinary people encounter this kind of situation, they will pretend that they have not said such words just now, so as to reduce the embarrassment; Ji Shaofei is not an ordinary person, he directly pretended that Shi Shuqiu did not hear and smiled at him, but this time Shi Shuqiu did not.

.

"Teacher Fang," Shi Shuqiu suppressed his anger and tried to be polite, "are you leaving now? My dad also wants you to stay and reminisce about the past."

He emphasized the word "you" and excluded Ji Shaofei without any trace. On the whole, Shi Shuqiu was a well-educated and open-minded man. Only this word showed that he was only in his early 20s.

"No need, your father will be busy next, so I won't stay and bother him."

"Okay, then I won't force you to keep it. Thank you for your high praise of my work at the seminar. I would like to ask you to correct me when I have new works in the future."

Fang Hanlin said: "That's what it should be."

After that, he and Ji Shaofei watched Shi Shuqiu get on the car and drive away. Fang Hanlin squinted for a long time and waited until the figure disappeared before saying:

"Years ago, Shi Tonghe was like this. He got on his bicycle and disappeared at the end of Binjiang Road - our editorial office used to be on Binjiang Road - this moment is so similar to that time, but it's a pity that things are different and people are different."

Ji Shaofei ignored Fang Hanlin's sorrow for the spring and autumn. He was still young and did not have so many regrets, so he did not miss the past.

"Teacher Fang, if Shi Tonghe and Wang Zixu get into a fight, who will we side with?"

"Tsk."

Fang Hanlin had great contempt for him: "We don't stand for anyone. We are editors, and we only care about the beauty of others, not their evil."

"The evil of immaturity." Ji Shaofei muttered and repeated.

Fang Hanlin nodded: "This is the last lesson I will teach you."

"It means that no one can be offended."

"Tsk!"

Fang Hanlin was very stern and angry. He was so angry that even though he didn't know how to criticize Ji Shaofei, Ji Shaofei was too frightened to speak.

After a while, he said: "Your interpretation is very vulgar!"

"Good teacher."

Fang Hanlin said: "First of all, Wang Zixu and Shi Tonghe will not fight. Wang Zixu is not the kind of person to beat old people, and Shi Tonghe will not be stupid enough to fight with young people."

Ji Shaofei wanted to say something vulgar again, but he held back.

"We editors are not a tool for writers to fight each other. We have our own professional vision and aesthetics. We select, we comment, and we treasure."

Fang Hanlin looked at Ji Shaofei and said:

"Writers will fight among themselves. We are not the ones who ignite the flames of war, and we cannot extinguish the flames of war. We are just witnesses."

Ji Shaofei felt touched for the first time in a long time.

He rarely talks to people of this age. He actually likes talking to Fang Hanlin. He feels that there is something in him that is rarely seen in people nowadays.

"Well, Teacher Fang," he said, "if Wang Zixu insists on competing with Shi Shuqiu for the Fei Shi Literary Award, the scene may be quite miserable. Can we only witness it?"

"If Wang Zixu knew that Shi Shuqiu was Shi Tonghe's son and wanted to snatch the Fei Literary Award from Shi Shuqiu's mouth, wouldn't it be miserable," Fang Hanlin said, looking at him.

"That can be said to be tragic."

…

Shi Shuqiu did not try to persuade Fang Hanlin to stay, not only because he was just being polite. He had more important things to do.

He held the handle of the car with one hand and his mobile phone with the other, staring at the phone to locate it. He drove dangerously for nearly a kilometer before he saw the figure in the distance.

He stopped the car next to the man.

"Sister Mengmeng, what are you doing? Why didn't you go to my seminar?"

Shi Shuqiu asked and the cuckoo cried blood, but Xiao Mengyin just looked up at him numbly.

"Sorry, I have something to do."

"What happened to you? What were you doing during those two hours?"

"I'm thinking."

"..."

Suddenly a bird on a high tree called "quack, quack, quack" at an inappropriate time. Shi Shuqiu was so suffocated that his face turned red, and it took him a long time to speak.

"I thought it was a very important thing! You even ignored my seminar!"

"Isn't thinking important?" Xiao Mengyin said, "For writers, thinking is more important than life."

Shi Shuqiu suppressed his voice and said, "But can't we wait until the seminar is over before we think about it?"

Xiao Mengyin apologized slightly, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Calm down, it's my fault, but I think there are so many heavyweight writers there, I am the only one missing, isn't there Yanzi Mountain?"

“I didn’t go to Yanzi Mountain either!”

Xiao Mengyin raised her eyebrows slightly, showing a surprised expression: "He didn't go either? How could he not go? How dare he not go?"

Shi Shuqiu nodded with a bitter expression. His slightly messy bangs said everything. For a person who pays so much attention to his hairstyle to be in such a mess, it means that the matter is serious to a certain extent.

Yan Zishan asked for leave with Shi Tonghe and did not come because of some private matter. Shi Shuqiu didn't know what it was, but it was a very legitimate thing and a very legitimate reason. Even if Shi Tonghe heard this, he would look serious and concerned.

He said, then go and do your business. It’s okay if you don’t come. Your business is important.

But it was still quite serious if he didn't come. Yanzishan and Shi Tonghe are from the same hometown. In the Literary and Art Association, fellow villagers should support each other and be allies.

You can use a very correct reason not to come today, but I don’t have to go when I encounter something related to your future in the future. Your matter may be very important, but if you don’t come, it means that you think that matter is more important than

Your future is important, so of course I don't need to care about your future.

This is the underlying logic that everyone in this circle must be well aware of. You may not understand it, but if you suffer and complain later, someone will naturally tell you this logic.

Shi Shuqiu was about to cry. Xiao Mengyin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come. This seminar is not a clarion call for charge, but a song of victory. As long as it is held, you

Victory has been achieved.”

Shi Shuqiu sniffed: "But if you don't come, I feel very boring."

"Don't be childish!"

She reached out and touched Shi Shuqiu's hair. Shi Shuqiu felt much better.

Xiao Mengyin is that kind of woman: you imagine the most indifferent woman you have ever seen in your life, the kind who never talks to you, and the only few conversations she has, they are just mocking you who are not familiar with her - if you

Once she figured it out, she was quite weird.

So it's no wonder people who know her call her "Skate" behind her back.

She only felt this "sister feeling" in front of Shi Shuqiu. Shi Shuqiu felt that this was not the real her, but he also felt that she was special to him and was very greedy in her heart.

Shi Shuqiu said: "Sister Mengmeng, what Wang Zixu wrote was published in "Get", what do you think?"

"I don't want to discuss this issue now." Xiao Mengyin was uncharacteristically, and his tone suddenly became cold and hard, so cold that he did not dare to ask again.

"All right."

Xiao Mengyin said that she would continue to think and would walk alone in Nanda for a long time today. If she saw her again, she hoped not to disturb her. So Shi Shuqiu said goodbye to her and pushed the bicycle for a while, suddenly feeling very tired.

He sat on the stone bench in front of the canteen and stared at the passers-by in a daze. He liked to observe girls, girls wearing different clothes. Clothing can reflect a person's personality, so he can tell which girl is easy to get, and which girl is easy to get.

Not worth messing with.

Based on this, he has a rating scale, from 1 to 5, level 5 is the easiest to get started with and can be dated almost immediately, while level 1 is the hardest to get started with. Xiao Mengyin thought it was level 5 at first.

, after getting close to the result, he found that it was level 0, and he even fell into it.

So since then, he has been perfecting his scoring system. He sat on a stone bench and stared at the girls passing by to rate them. They came and went. This one was level 4 in flesh-colored stockings, that one was level 3 in plaid skirt, and this one was in black bottoming.

The pants are level 3... no, level 4, her leggings are fake and translucent.

Shi Tonghe didn't call. He thought he would call, but he didn't. This shows that Shi Tonghe was disappointed, quite disappointed, and in a bad mood.

But he was lucky because he was in a bad mood. If Shi Tonghe called again, he felt like he would cry.

A girl in a level 3 long skirt and a girl in level 5 black stockings came over. The girl's voice rang in her ears: "Senior Shi, what a coincidence! I actually see you here!"

Shi Shuqiu looked up with a habitually sunny expression: "Hello."

"Wow, isn't this a seminar today? Why are you sitting here?"

"The seminar is over."

The Level 5 girl stomped her steps and screamed in an infatuated manner: "Wow, Senior Shi is so handsome! He looks so handsome up close! Senior, I heard that your works have become a sensation in the literary world this time. It's so amazing!"

Shi Shuqiu smiled gently: "Absolutely."

At this moment, he suddenly realized that for him, Yan Zishan and Xiao Mengyin's failure to attend the seminar was as big a deal as the earth falling apart, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was not important.

He is still the leading writer of the younger generation, and no one can shake this result. Even if Wang Zixu is 10 years younger, he cannot shake his status, not to mention that he is already too old to be on the track?

Shi Shuqiu regained some confidence.

…

Wang Zixu squatted on the roadside and watched people.
