Shut up, I am really a pure love god of war!

Chapter 253: There is no one else in your dormitory, right?
"Student Xiaobai, who is far away in the capital, actually cares about my birthday?"

Zhong Xilu replied quickly: "Are you planning something bad?"

Bai Yang laughed and replied, "What bad idea can I have? Don't worry, I never bear grudges. On my birthday, you put up banners and played radio broadcasts, and even organized a lion dance and waist drum team at the school gate, and let a group of aunts sing and dance around me, making it seem like I was celebrating my birthday. You made me a social wreck in front of the whole school, but I don't care about these things anymore."

The king will not ring the bell today: "."

"You remember it clearly!"

One can feel her panic from the words: "Student Xiaobai, please don't mess around."

Bai Yang: "What do you mean by messing around? I'm far away in the imperial capital, I can't do anything even if I want to."

The king did not ring the bell today: "What if you fly back that day? For a great writer, a plane ticket is a very simple thing, right?"

Bai Yang: “Oh?”

"So Comrade Xiao Zhong is expecting me to fly back?"

Zhong Xilu was as frank as ever: "Of course I'm looking forward to it!"

"But now I'm not looking forward to it so much."

God knows what this guy will do!

She said, "Actually, it's fine if you don't come back. It's too troublesome to take a plane or something. I think as long as the intention is there, that's enough."

Bai Yang: "Comrade Xiao Zhong's words make sense. I won't come back then."

The king will not ring the bell today: "."

【The message has been withdrawn.】

The king will not ring the bell today: "Fortunately, QQ can be withdrawn, otherwise I would have been borrowed by you and gone downhill!"

"You should withdraw quickly as well! You are not allowed to not come back!"

Bai Yang: ".Is there any other operation like this?"

The king will not ring the bell today: "Is it not possible?"

Bai Yang: "Although it's a bit self-deceptive, Comrade Xiao Zhong has the final say."

"Tell me first, what are you going to do for your birthday."

The king did not ring the bell today: "I actually have no control over this matter."

"I'll tell you a secret. I actually wanted to fly to the capital to give you a surprise on your birthday, but my parents strongly suppressed it."

Bai Yang raised his eyebrows, and a smile appeared on his face.

As expected, he is Comrade Xiao Zhong.

She didn't hide anything at all, and said these words which were obviously full of affection openly. Moreover, Bai Yang had no doubt that she could really do such a thing.

Of course, if she really did that, and the two of them hadn't informed each other and planned to surprise each other, then it would be a real surprise.

That scene couldn't help but appear in Bai Yang's mind.

Zhong Xilu stood on the street in Songzhuang, calling herself expectantly, and started by saying, "Xiaobai, guess where I am?"

Then add one more sentence: "I don't know where you are, but I'm right at your door."

It makes me feel nauseous just thinking about it.

Zhong Xilu's messages continued to arrive: "My dad thinks that the eighteenth birthday is a very important day, so he plans to hold a grand coming-of-age ceremony and invite relatives and friends to attend. Anyway, it sounds boring."

"I know that!" Bai Yang replied, "Birthday parties of wealthy daughters and young ladies. This kind of occasion often appears in TV dramas and online novels. This kind of occasion is a must-visit spot for the protagonist to show off!"

"Speaking of which, is there a gift-giving part, and then you open it in public? A great gift will make people around you exclaim in amazement, while a lousy gift will make people around you sneer and ridicule. Then, as the protagonist, I give a low-key and luxurious item. Your bestie has no taste and starts to ridicule you, but the elders next to you see the value of it and explain in astonishment how great this gift is, and even offer a price of several hundred million so that you can reluctantly give it up."

The king will not ring the bell today: "."

"Bai Yang, please stop smelling."

"This kind of scene is impossible. Gifts are of course opened in private. Even if they are ordinary, they are a token of my love. How can I despise them or even ridicule them?"

"Also! Why did you become the protagonist? I'm not the naive and innocent girl in the brain-dead novels!"

Bai Yang: "Yes, yes, Comrade Xiao Zhong must be the heroine of a novel with a female protagonist, the type who kills decisively."

The king will not ring the bell today: "Uh-huh~"

"Besides, you won't be attending. I don't plan to invite friends to the coming-of-age ceremony. After all, it won't be fun for everyone to be with a group of adults."

"After this is over, let's start another party!" Bai Yang: "So, I won't be able to see Uncle Lu this time? What a pity."

The king did not ring the bell today: "You really want to see my father? I can help you talk to him."

"He will be very happy to hear that you are back!"

Bai Yang: ".Then let's not disturb him."

They chatted until very late, and Zhong Xilu said good night reluctantly. Bai Yang put down his phone and fell asleep.

I woke up early in the morning and went to the studio as usual. The training had lasted for more than a month, and the sketching class was no longer about drawing basic still lifes. Instead, we invited two groups of models to let everyone draw portrait sketches.

Don't get me wrong, she's a real model, not a nude model.

They were basically old men, drowsy as they sat, and the students had to constantly remind each other to keep a good posture - after all, they were all beginners in portrait sketching, and it was impossible for them to be like Bai Yang, who could draw the model as he pleased.

Sometimes, when the model closes her eyes, the facial structure changes subtly and the students don’t know how to draw it.

While giving instructions, Teacher Meng Jia came up behind Bai Yang and praised him as usual. Then he said, "Bai Yang, has your uncle discussed the outsourcing project with you recently?"

Bai Yang smiled and said, "Because I am very interested in that project, my uncle is quite willing to talk to me, for example--"

He paused and said, "Teacher Meng Jia is also working on one of the original drawings."

"Ahem." Teacher Meng Jia had a subtle look of embarrassment on her face, and said, "My friends have been very busy lately, so I have no choice but to do it myself. After all, it's something the students asked me to do, so I can't just give up halfway."

"Teacher Meng Jia is really thoughtful." Bai Yang said with gratitude, "You are willing to help despite your busy schedule. I heard from my uncle that Teacher Meng Jia's original draft is the most eye-catching. He is considering inviting you to coordinate the overall art planning."

Meng Jia's eyes lit up and he asked, "Did Mr. Bai really say that?"

"Yes." Bai Yang nodded. "Unfortunately, considering that Teacher Meng Jia has his own job, I'm afraid he doesn't have enough time and energy to take care of art planning, so my uncle gave up the idea."

Teacher Meng Jia hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I usually have plenty of time. The studio is already on track, and there's not much to do on a daily basis. I only have one sketching class every day, and most of the time I have an assistant to guide me. I've been worrying lately that I have too much free time."

"Besides, Mr. Zeng should not be so busy by next month, so I will have more free time."

Bai Yang raised an eyebrow, "Teacher Meng Jia means you are interested in my uncle's project?"

Teacher Meng Jia looked away uncomfortably and said, "The gaming industry is my main profession."

Who would want to be an art teacher if they had no other choice? And an art teacher in a training institution, although the income is okay, there is no guarantee at all, not even a regular salary, so who knows how long they can stay in this line of work.

Meng Jia was embarrassed to tell his students that originally, he just wanted to make a few thousand dollars of extra money through outsourcing. But after his painting style was noticed by the other party, he couldn't help but start thinking more.

Although it sounds like the game project that Bai Yang's so-called uncle is going to make is not big, and the team has not even been formed yet, the prospects may not be good, but precisely because of this, it is a rare opportunity.

After all, if you can get involved in the early stages and wait for the art department to be perfected, you will be the core. Even if the game eventually fails, it will still be a resume.

Otherwise, if you look for a job through normal application, it will take a long time to climb from the bottom to the core.

So, Meng Jia really wanted to seize this opportunity.

Bai Yang thought for a moment and said, "If Teacher Meng Jia is really interested, I will mention it to my uncle."

As a student, these things are naturally difficult to discuss.

After class, Bai Yang went to the cafeteria to have a quick lunch and then hurried back to the dormitory.

I have been mainly busy with novels recently.

The overall idea has been formed, and the outline has a rough framework, so all that’s left is to start writing.

Unlike when he wrote "The Weird World" just to make the first pot of gold, Bai Yang had high expectations for this novel, so he put much more thought into it.

Of course, in order to ensure the success of this book, Bai Yang still played to his strengths as a reborn person and stitched in many settings and plots that would become popular in the future.

For example, there is a very popular Western fantasy Cthulhu novel with rigorous settings and complex systems. The various sequences and professions are very consistent with the game background that Bai Yang needs. At that time, there will be a lot of room for reference and development in terms of bonds and heroic professions.

Of course, there is no problem with Western fantasy, but Cthulhu is not so suitable for game adaptation, so Bai Yang still made some modifications to the overall background.

The difficulty that Bai Yang has been busy with during this period is how to reasonably extract the advantages of the original work without destroying the excitement and rationality of the plot. Fortunately, Bai Yang was a professional online writer in his previous life. With such a good example, he knows that even if his work cannot reach the level of the original, it will definitely not be mediocre.

As I was thinking, there was a knock on the dormitory door.

Bai Yang opened the door and was surprised to see Duan Yiqing standing in the corridor, holding a guitar, not daring to look inside the door.

"Bai Yang, there's no one else in your dormitory, right?"

There should be more later
