I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 241: Reverse Painting

The background of life is sad and boring.

Therefore, Li Peifeng is used to using words, language, actions and other methods to add some color to it.

Blue looks melancholy, red is too intense, black and white are monotonous, green and gray are too plain...

Li Peifeng's favorite color is yellow, which is bright, gorgeous and gentle.

Therefore, he also likes to engage in yellow the most.

But at the moment, Li Peifeng was simply sky blue. After chatting with Zhao Qingge about thesis for a while, when it was time for dinner, he made a few stir-fry dishes and the two of them had a meal. During this period, Zhao Qingge was a little surprised. .

"Is the food to your liking?"

"Not bad, very full."

"I've finished eating too, please rest."

After saying that, Li Peifeng stood up and put away the dishes. Zhao Qingge also helped put the dishes back into the refrigerator, and then sat in the restaurant and watched him wash the dishes.

After about three or four minutes, Li Peifeng wiped his hands and walked out of the kitchen. Zhao Qingge looked away: "Is there any news about the 'Pulse Analysis of Female Channel Internet Literature' that you submitted before?"

Li Peifeng nodded and smiled bitterly: "Yes, Professor Duan sent me an email this morning, asking me a few questions about the article, and said that it was being reviewed, and there were five reviewers in total, so the review time may be very long. Commander, let me be mentally prepared."

Zhao Qingge hummed and said, "Be patient and wait. It's still a bit reluctant for you to submit to "Literary Review" as a student. I'll make a call for you tomorrow to urge you to submit your manuscript. If it doesn't work, I'll tell you as soon as possible to submit to another journal."

"Literary Review" is the highest-level publication specializing in Eastern literature studies.

Therefore, its submission threshold is also very high.

If you are a current master's or doctoral student and want to submit your article to this journal, generally speaking, you should list your supervisor as the first author and yourself as the second author. Otherwise, no matter how good and exciting the article is, you will not be able to write it. Editors won’t even read it and will reject it directly.

However, if a student who submits an article is really strong and has a major topic, or has previously published an article in "Literary Review" as a second author, or frequently "appeared" in other authoritative publications, the academic world has With a certain degree of popularity, or if his mentor is very powerful, the editor of "Literary Review" will naturally open up and accept submissions for review.

For those young teachers and professors who are qualified to contribute and have professional titles, it is also very difficult for them to publish articles in "Literary Review". Once their articles are included in "Literary Review", it is also a happy event.

In ordinary 985 and 211 universities, if a teacher publishes a "Literature Review", it is worthy of an official announcement in the school to celebrate.

When Li Peifeng joined Literary Review, he followed Zhao Qingge's suggestion. But now it seems that the journal's six-month review period is a bit long. Maybe by the time Li Peifeng graduates, this article will not be published yet.

"The best thing is to be included in the "Literary Review". Your article is well written, the content is innovative and pioneering, and it is of high quality. And once you have this article, it will be convenient for you to study for a Ph.D. and teach in the future."

Zhao Qingge paused and stared at him: "I haven't asked yet, what are your plans after graduation next year?"

"Stay in the capital and concentrate on writing a book. Otherwise...what suggestions do you have?"

Zhao Qingge pursed his lips and said, "Find a girlfriend as soon as possible."

"What are you talking about? You want me to find a girlfriend?"

Li Peifeng was shocked and confused, thinking, am I going to open a harem according to the order?

Old Zhao hesitated, stared at him for a long time, turned his head slightly, and said inexplicably: "My mother is giving me a blind date again."

Li Peifeng sighed: "You mean... after I graduate, we will announce our relationship to my uncle and aunt?"

Zhao Qingge nodded slightly.

But when Li Peifeng thought about Li Xin's reaction after knowing this, he inevitably started to get scared.

"Is it too early? No, I don't think it's early. I can meet you anytime. The most important thing is do you think your uncle and aunt will agree?"

"..."

Zhao Qingge's eyes drooped slightly and his face darkened.

Li Peifeng sighed and comforted him: "It's okay, I will eventually agree. I have this confidence. As long as you have the same confidence as me, all difficulties will not be difficult."

Zhao Qingge didn't reply. He got up and went to the living room. Li Peifeng thought she was leaving, but the other party sat on the sofa.

"What's wrong with you?"

Li Peifeng followed closely and sat down next to him.

Zhao Qingge stared at the floor blankly, with a somewhat sad expression. After a while, he said in a very soft voice: "Tell me, am I getting old?"

"No, why do you think so suddenly?"

Li Peifeng put his arms around the other party's shoulders in surprise, and reminded Lao Zhao in his heart that he must give her some Peiyuan Pill before he left.

Zhao Qingge sat on the sofa, leaning forward slightly, covering his face with his hands, fingers in his hair, exuding melancholy: "I'm just old."

After knowing her for such a long time, this was the first time Li Peifeng saw his guide acting so rude in the real world. He didn't know what to say to comfort her at first, so he could only pat her on the back gently.

But the effect was minimal. Zhao Qingge's mood did not improve, but became even lower. The tip of her nose was surrounded by Li Peifeng's familiar light citrus gas. It smelled very good, but she covered her face with her hands and whispered: "We are not suitable, or …forget it."

"What's appropriate or inappropriate? Are you feeling unwell today?" Li Peifeng asked with concern: "Can I make some ginger tea for you to drink?"

"Need not."

Zhao Qingge sat upright and leaned on the sofa again. He turned to look at him. When he saw that young and infinitely charming face, his eyes were complicated. After two seconds, he looked away and seemed to be murmuring: "At this age, I still can't I don’t know who I am and I’m still afraid of making any changes…”

"Why did you suddenly say this?" Li Peifeng frowned and said, "Are you tired from work? You can tell me that I can do all the tasks. Now the first draft has been finalized. I will probably write the graduation thesis in a week. It’s over, there’s enough time.”

"It's not because of this."

Zhao Qingge shook his head and sighed softly: "I just feel that I am wasting my life, my heart is wavering, my thoughts are changing and I am consuming myself... I have no confidence, I have no confidence in anything."

After a slight pause in his tone, Zhao Qingge looked helpless: "I have no confidence in you, let alone getting them to agree."

"Take your time, you don't have confidence, I do, I'll give you some!"

Zhao Qingge ignored it and seemed to be remembering something blankly. Li Peifeng asked for a long time before she hesitated and said: "Actually, now that I think about it, compared with reality, that dream was quite interesting. It was weird, magical and absurd... "

Li Peifeng blinked: "Really?! You think so too?!"

"I'm talking about the one we did the first time." Zhao Qingge's eyes suddenly became sharp and she glared at him. Li Peifeng, who couldn't help but smile, said, "Yes, I didn't say the second one either."

Zhao Qingge was silent for a moment and said abruptly: "Are you still in contact with them?"

"..."

Silence was already the answer. Under Zhao Qingge's gaze, Li Peifeng didn't want to lie. Seeing this, the former reacted with genuine disappointment: "That's why I have no confidence in you."

Li Peifeng said nothing, but held her hand harder.

"release!"

Zhao Qingge struggled and scolded, but he couldn't let Li go, so he had no choice but to give up: "It's so shameless!"

"…My teeth are okay."

It was no use trying to be smart, the guide was still angry and ignored everyone. They sat like this on the sofa in the living room for nearly five or six minutes without saying a word.

Li Peifeng secretly glanced at the time, six forty.

He was a little anxious. It was estimated that Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying would be off work in a while. Go early and feel relieved. Otherwise, just sitting with Lao Zhao would be a waste of time...

"sorry."

Zhao Qingge suddenly laughed and apologized?

Li Peifeng thought he was hallucinating. Looking at her face, he was nervous and surprised: "How can you apologize for no reason?"

He felt that Lao Zhao was in a very wrong state today. Was it because of the perfume?

It should be the case. He talks more, his thoughts are running wild, and he is sentimental, as if he had drunk alcohol...

"Isn't it tiring to be with me?"

"No, it's very comfortable."

"Sometimes I'm not...candid enough." After Zhao Qingge finished speaking, his face showed embarrassment, as if he felt that it was already a very difficult thing to be honest enough.

"mua~"

Li Peifeng tilted his head and kissed me. He said that I was shocked. He said with a smile on his face: "There have been great changes. The fact that you have the courage to admit that you are not honest now is a sign of honesty. Moreover, you will not shut up even if I kiss you." Eyesight."

Zhao Qingge's lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but he didn't say anything. He took off his high heels, curled up his legs on the sofa, gently pressed the hem of his skirt with his hands, and sighed again.

"What happened to you today? Tell me what you have to say."

Li Peifeng was puzzled. Zhao Qingge raised his eyelids and glanced at him, quickly lowered his eyes, changed his posture to sitting sideways, and pointed his black silk-wrapped calves and feet towards someone Li. He raised his eyes again and saw Li Peifeng looking at his face with concern. , frowning slightly: "Am I really old?"

"No, please wait a moment."

Li Peifeng was confused at first. He just listened to Lao Zhao mumbling that he was old. He was about to get up to get the Peiyuan Pill and give it to him to try the effect. However, Zhao Qingge stretched out his foot and gently touched his thigh. head, and asked uncertainly: "Am I really not old?"

"..."

Li Peifeng's heart moved, he put his hand on the black silk foot, rubbed, rubbed, his five fingers slid from the foot up to the calf, and then up...

It's definitely not old. It feels so tender.

But you can't say such hooligan words, and Li Peifeng suddenly realized it. No wonder the guide was chattering inexplicably after the meal. It turned out that he felt that he was not used to it because he had not moved his hands and feet, and he began to doubt his charm?

If you had told me earlier, if you had told me earlier, I would have rushed...

"Can't take it off!"

Zhao Qingge's face was reddish, and she tried to hold down the hand beside her skirt, but she couldn't hold back Li Peifeng's body that was slowly falling towards her.

"If you feel old in the future, you can call me daddy. That way you are absolutely young...ah."

The tongue was bitten.

Li was also very angry: "You are still not honest enough, I will punish you severely!"

After saying that, he picked up Zhao Qingge and walked towards the bedroom.

…

In fact, Li Peifeng is not willing to punish him.

He just wants to sing with him about love, but Lao Zhao is obviously not ready for it, so it is difficult for Li Peifeng to let the two of them meet frankly.

The black stockings were torn apart, but the skirt was still an impenetrable barrier. One of the sleeves on the front row of the shirt fell off, which did not affect Lao Zhao's protection with his hands, but she gave a deadline to untie the two...

At least after Li Peifeng graduates!

Hey, good times are still to come!

"You are drawing a cake for me!"

Li Peifeng was very disappointed. For the first time, he tasted the taste of being eaten by someone, and it was not a good feeling!

But he still chose to forgive, and took out the Peiyuan Pill, and in the name of vitamins, he half-forcibly fed Zhao Qingge a pill mouth-to-mouth.

She feeds him cakes, and he feeds her medicine, which is also a reciprocal courtesy.

"What kind of medicine did you give me?"

But Zhao Qingge was very resistant. After taking it, his face turned redder, his eyes became clearer, and he said with vigilance: 'I feel... something is not right. '

Well, Lao Zhao had the same idea as the two girls at the beginning, and they both suspected that Li Peifeng gave him drug C.

Mr. Li defended again and again, but Zhao Qingge was also dubious. He pushed him away from him, looked at himself, frowned and said, "Go out, I'll take off my socks, otherwise I can't leave."

"Do you need me to get you a pair of my pants? It might be a little cold if you only wear a skirt."

"Take one."

Li Peifeng schemingly took a pair of trousers that he had barely worn because the size didn't fit him well, so that he wouldn't be afraid of being discovered by Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying, which would expose him and cause trouble.

"Write your essay well."

Soon, Zhao Qingge changed his clothes in the bedroom, walked out of the room, and left without saying a word.

"Wait a minute, take the medicine."

"Need not."

"Take it, take two pills a day from now on, take it on time."

Li Peifeng poured out two-thirds of the remaining 300 Peiyuan Pills, put it in another medicine bottle, and handed it over.

Zhao Qingge still doubted whether the Sanwu pill was legitimate or not, but more than two minutes passed after taking it. Not only did his body not show any abnormality, he just felt energetic and full of energy. He also vaguely realized that the medicine did have incredible effects. .

"Give me so much, and you won't eat it?"

Li Peifeng didn't answer, he put it directly into Zhao Qingge's windbreaker pocket and kissed him again.

"Let's go."

In fact, Li Peifeng wanted her to drive him to AllBright City, but considering that the road was not convenient, he did not open his mouth and sighed as he watched Lao Zhao open the door and leave.

"I'm still thin-skinned!"

…

At 7:40 p.m., Li Peifeng took a taxi to AllBright Apartment. Before going upstairs, he took a special look. The lights were on, so there must be someone there, but the lights in the studio on the back floor were not turned off. It was most likely that Xu Manying was at home. Wu Wenyue is still working overtime in the studio.

Put your thumb on the door handle and open the door!

"Verification error, please verify again..."

"Um?!"

Li Peifeng was a little surprised. He put his thumb up again, and the door still repeated "verification error". The password he entered was also wrong.

"Deleted my fingerprints and changed my password?"

This smart door also has a key tag and a traditional key, but Li Peifeng didn’t bring one with him, so he had no choice but to knock on the door...

"Dong dong dong~ I, Man Ning, open the door."

Li Peifeng thought that the angry Xu Manying would not open the door for him, so he might go to the studio to ask Wu Wenyue for help, but after a while, the door opened.

But the person who opened the door was neither Xu Manying nor Wu Wenyue, but Huang Tianxuan!

"Here?" Huang Tianxuan was wearing slippers and her posture was very casual, as if she was at home!

"..."

Li Peifeng quickly stepped in and looked around with a serious face. Xu Manying was sitting on the sofa and looking away from him.

"What are you looking at?"

Li Peifeng didn't answer. He searched both bedrooms, including the closet, and found no one else. So he returned to the living room, took out his cell phone and dialed Wu Wenyue's number...

"What's wrong with you?"

Huang Tianxuan said amusedly: "I'm right here, Wenyue is in the back building, who else are you looking for?"

"you shut up!"

Li Peifeng scolded, and at the same time grabbed her hand to prevent her from leaving. He held the mobile phone in his other hand and said to Wu Wenyue who had just answered the call: "Hurry home and work overtime? You're a cuckold." Our heads are in trouble! What kind of overtime are you doing?"

"..."

Wu Wenyue's voice on the phone was vague and vague. Huang Tianxuan could not hear it clearly. She could only see Li Peifeng holding her hand and looking at her righteously: "Yes, an orphan and a widower are alone in a room, secretly having trysts behind our backs, and making a big fuss." Orange, let me catch you! Come back quickly!!"
