Lu Qingfeng scalded the tableware in front of him with hot water and gave it to Hou Xiaoyue.
"Thank you."
The little girl whispered, very ladylike.
Hou Xiaobing looked at his sister with surprise.
"Has anyone of you contacted Xiao Huihui?"
Lu Qingfeng and Hou Xiaobing shook their heads.
"Then give him a video call."
Liu Xin took out her cell phone.
It took a while to pick up the WeChat call.
Lu Hui's face appeared on the screen.
After not seeing him for over a month, Lu Hui has changed a lot.
Perhaps it was because he had been in the workplace for a while, the youthful aura from his student days had visibly disappeared from him.
His face was also much thinner than before, and the most obvious thing was his eyes, which had undergone an inexplicable change.
Seeing Lu Hui like this, Hou Xiaobing and Liu Xin were a little surprised.
Lu Qingfeng thought it was normal.
He has also experienced this kind of situation.
"Xiao Huihui, how are you doing?"
What Liu Xin said unconsciously had a social flavor.
Lu Hui on the other end of the phone was a little excited when he saw the few people, but when he heard this, he looked a little discouraged.
"I felt really uncomfortable. I couldn't keep up with the pace of the people in the company. The atmosphere of the conversation was also weird. After adapting for a long time, I still felt a little awkward."
Lu Qingfeng could understand what he meant.
Entering the workplace means entering a more complex and changeable network of interpersonal relationships.
It is normal to feel a little uncomfortable when jumping directly from the relatively simple environment of high school to such a copy.
You need to bear the pressure for a while, and then you will be fine once you are familiar with the social rules of adults.
After all, it's in his uncle's company, so there's no need to worry.
Lu Hui complained for a while.
"I regret it now. I should have studied for a few more years."
When I was in school, I felt that I would have more freedom when entering society.
When I really entered society, I began to miss the innocence of my school days.
Everyone seems to have to go through this kind of emotional journey.
"How's that girl you've been chatting with?"
Lu Qingfeng didn't want to make the atmosphere like a complaining conference, so he smiled and changed the subject.
Speaking of this, Lu Hui felt a little embarrassed.
Said vaguely.
"Still chatting."
Seeing him like this, several people smiled knowingly.
"No more chatting, I'm still at work, let's contact each other when we have time."
At this time, Lu Hui seemed to have something to do. He said something and quickly hung up the video.
Liu Xin put away her phone regretfully.
“I feel like we’re all farther apart now, and it’s hard to play together like we used to.”
This is the price of growing up.
People at each stage have their own thoughts, experience different things, and meet different people.
As new relationships emerge, old relationships naturally fade.
"We're at an age where we shouldn't think about this anymore. I brought you something."
Lu Qingfeng interrupted Liu Xin's sigh and took out two books from the bag he brought.
"what?"
The two of them took it and flipped through it, and only understood when they saw the author's name.
"Shit, this is a book you wrote?"
Liu Xin yelled directly.
Lu Qingfeng smiled reservedly.
"low profile."
Hou Xiaoyue looked at her brother eagerly, and Hou Xiaobing gave her the copy of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" in his hand.
"It's not officially on the market yet, so I'm letting you take a look first."
Lu Qingfeng actually didn't have any other intentions, he was just pretending a little.
Who doesn't have a little vanity in their heart?
Especially in front of my best friends.
"You earned it through your own hard work."
Hou Xiaobing sends his sincere blessings.
"When will I be treated like this?"
Liu Xin flipped through the book, feeling extremely envious.
"You haven't forgotten your dream of writing an online novel yet. I see you're fishing all day and don't have the heart to write a book."
Hou Xiaobing teased him.
"I've been writing all night, okay?"
Liu Xin said unconvinced.
"Then keep working hard." He looked at Lu Qingfeng again.
"I've seen a lot of writers criticizing your mystery novel online lately. Is that okay?"
"That book 'Astrology Murder Magic', right? I saw someone analyzing the plot on Bilibili, and many people said it was amazing. I didn't see anyone saying it was bad."
Liu Xin said immediately.
The perspectives of these two people also reflect the polarized reviews of this book online.
"It's okay. Some people may not like it, but that doesn't stop readers from liking it."
"I saw online that your book is going to be published in Japan, and that you're the shining star of Chinese mystery writing. Is that true?"
Liu Xin explored.
"The results of the activity haven't come out yet, so it's hard to say for sure right now."
The preliminary round of the Mystery Novel Writing Award is divided into three phases: August, September and October. Three books will be selected each month to enter the semi-finals.
In the November semi-finals, three books will be selected from the best nine books to enter the final awards.
At this stage, people from the Japanese magazine will come to review the manuscript together.
Finally, one book was selected, translated into Japanese, and published in Fuso.
Only the first issue has been released so far, and there are still many great writers who have not yet appeared.
Lu Qingfeng didn't dare to say that he would win for sure.
Who knows if anyone can come up with something more amazing than "The Astrology of Murder."
The dishes we ordered also arrived.
The three of them ordered more beer and drinks and chatted while drinking.
After eating and drinking, everyone paid their dues as usual.
We will all be separated one by one. After this meeting, I don’t know when we will see each other again.
There was nothing wrong with Liu Xin going to Yenching University to study with him.
Hou Xiaobing stayed in Sucheng, and I'm afraid we won't have many opportunities to meet in the future.
Shaking his head, Lu Qingfeng went to Teacher Chen's house again and gave him the fairy tale that was about to be published.
Two days later, Lu Qingfeng prepared to go to Yanjing.
Carrying a bag and luggage, I stood at the door and looked at the house where I had lived for half a year.
I probably won’t come back in the future.
Everything has been packed.
Actually there isn't much stuff, just take the important things with you.
Some of them were too heavy and inconvenient to carry, so when they arrived in Yanjing, Yang Xiuxiu sent them directly to him.
Lu Qingfeng didn't have much feeling in his heart. To him, this place was just a temporary resting place.
"Let's go."
The girl next door took a day off today to come and see him off.
I took the violin from his hand and went downstairs together.
I took a taxi and headed straight to the high-speed rail station.
When we arrived at the place, we met up with Liu Xin.
Liu Xin's parents came to see him off.
"Qingfeng, you two should take good care of each other on the way. This child, I said I would send you to Yanjing together, but he didn't want to."
A mother worries about her son even when he is far away, and Liu Xin's mother kept giving her instructions.
Liu's father would also say a few words.
"I will, Auntie."
Lu Qingfeng agreed.
Yang Xiuxiu also reminded him.
"Call me when you get there. As for the matter you mentioned, don't worry. I'll come to Yanjing to find you after I finish my work here."
"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Xiuxiu."
Yang Xiuxiu patted his shoulder.
The train was about to arrive, so the two said goodbye, checked their tickets, and entered the platform.
After a while, the high-speed train to Yanjing roared out.
