Shi Pei was tormented by Arnold until midnight, and he was almost late when he went to work the next day.
The signing of the contract went smoothly, and Shi Pei was given a satisfactory price. After the end, the editor went downstairs with him, and the two had dinner together.
Shi Pei's editor is called Chen Jian, a fat and nice guy who has been in charge of Shi Pei for the past few years.An editor has many authors under him. Shi Pei is not at the top among the authors Chen Jian is in charge of, but he has the best relationship with Chen Jian.
Before Chen Jian, Shi Pei also worked with another editor, but that editor was not optimistic about the subject matter Shi Pei chose. It was too unpopular at the time and there was no market. He even kidnapped Shi Pei to work for a certain great author. Gunner, just give him an outline and let him write it down.
Shi Pei had always been in a state of frustrated self-confidence under the former editor, and it didn't get better until the editor left and was replaced by Chen Jian.
Chen Jian will not interfere too much with Shi Pei's writing, and he has a lot of experience, bringing out many high-quality authors. At that time, although the themes written by Shi Pei did not have a particularly large audience in China, they were already flourishing abroad. , Chen Jian has a broad vision and a keen sense of smell. With his encouragement, Shi Pei also regains his strength.
Shi Pei was very grateful to Chen Jian for giving him the opportunity, and Chen Jian was able to read what Shi Pei wrote. After a few years, the two kept in touch after work. When Shi Pei was on a business trip in H city, Chen Jian would invite him to dinner.
"Hey, it's been almost a year since we last saw each other." Chen Jian opened the beer with a screwdriver and handed it to Shi Pei, who waved his hand quickly.
Chen Jian put the beer back and said, "Did you drive here? Travel by car?"
Shi Pei said, "No, I won't drink."
He is now daunted by alcohol, not because he can't drink it, but because he doesn't want to drink it anymore, to the extent that embarrassing memories immediately emerge in his heart when he sees it.Of course, Chen Jian was not a persuasive person, so he took back the opened beer and drank it himself.
The two sat in the open-air food stall. Chen Jian said that the food here was fresh and delicious. He ordered a table. The business here was really good, and there were many people around. The boss was shirtless this season and was stirring the pot. . Even the food stalls in City H are quieter than other cities, like Qing Bar in the national food stalls. Everyone chats quietly while eating, and the atmosphere is harmonious.
Chen Jian and his wife just got their certificates last month, and it is expected to serve wine next year. The whole person is radiant and beaming. Maybe it is the influence of marriage. Everyone has filters. He looked at Shi Pei for a while, and said
"Shi Pei, do you have a date?"
Shi Pei feels very wronged, he has been misunderstood to have a partner wherever he goes these past few months, could it be that these two words are written on his forehead?
He waved his hand and said, "Brother Jian, it's nothing."
Chen Jian burst out laughing and said, "Really? I don't believe it."
Shi Pei asked strangely, "...how did you find out that I have a partner."
Chen Jian smiled and said, "'We'? So I'm not the only one who said this. If I say that you don't have a date now, at least you have a sweetheart."
Shi Peixin said...Editor, it's scary!
Chen Jian broke the crabs for Shi Pei, and said, "Anyway, I feel that you have changed a lot compared to before. A married person like me looks like he is dating anyone. Don't blame me for talking too much."
Shi Pei: "Not at all, what was I like before?"
When many people who knew him said that he had changed a lot, Shi Pei had to examine himself.Did it change a lot?He didn't realize that the changes in his life were quite big. After spending nearly half a year in the same room with an alien, Shi Pei devoted half of his thoughts to Arnold.
He always feels that his thoughts have not changed much from before.
Holding the chopsticks, Chen Jian said, "It's the first time I've met you, but I feel quite aloof."
Shi Pei said in shock, "No way, I just had a social panic attack."
Chen Jian smiled and said, "I know, it just looks stubborn and not so approachable. This is the first time I met you. I think it is connected to your heart to a certain extent."
Shi Pei: "Okay... Maybe you are right, what about now?"
Chen Jian beautifully disassembled a crab and put it on the plate as it was, pretending that it was a new crab, and said as he put it, "Now is different from that time, if today is the first time I see you , I will think that you are easy to speak and a gentle and patient person."
Shi Pei poured the coconut juice, and said, "No way, this is too far away, has it changed so much?"
Chen Jian laughed, "I should be the one to be shocked, right? You are indeed a different person from before. I still want to know what you have gone through."
Shi Pei was silent for a while, and then asked, "Really?"
Chen Jian is a person with a very delicate mind. This kind of personality and his career complement each other. He replied, "Xiao Pei, if you can't notice the change in yourself, don't think about it. You are an author, you can read and write by yourself. book."
"For an author, writing can reflect his heart intuitively. Of course, only the author has this key. No matter what he creates, whether it is articles, paintings or music, different audiences will have different understandings. Literary and artistic works It’s a mirror, what’s in your mind, you’ll see what’s in the mirror.”
"Only the author sees himself in the mirror."
Shi Pei listened carefully to what Chen Jian said.He continued, "So no matter how your skills change, the difference in mood will still affect what you write. If you want to know your changes, you might as well compare your previous and current works."
"Easier, you can also see the reader's reaction, they are also looking at your work."
When Shi Pei recalled the previous readers and the current readers, there were indeed some differences in their reactions.
Shi Pei: "You're right...maybe."
He began to peel the prawns, "But that's fine, I'm making progress slowly."
Chen Jian, "Tell me about the current situation. I've been analyzing it here for a long time."
Shi Pei was a little hesitant. Chen Jian was indeed a good person to confide in. They were not in the same city. Besides, how old was Chen Jian, and he had more experience than him, so maybe he could give him an answer.
He tried to organize his words, and then said, "There is a person..."
Shi Pei tilted his head, and seemed to find it difficult to speak.
Chen Jian followed him and tilted his head.
Shi Pei "I feel like I'm about to fall in love with someone...uh, someone, but we can't make it, um, I feel like we can't make it."
Chen Jian asked, "Why? Does he not like you?"
Shi Pei never thought about whether Arnold liked him or not, he couldn't judge the feelings of an alien, when he had no concept of human feelings.
Shi Pei already has a general understanding of the characteristics of Arnold's learning. He can learn things that have nothing to do with human emotions, such as talking and cooking.But when it comes to emotions, this is a big obstacle for him to understand.
He can understand, after all, Shi Pei is also a beginner who stumbled in this area.
Therefore, Shi Pei couldn't ask Arnold to understand these things, let him know how to measure, understand... If it's not a lover, it shouldn't be so close.
And until now he is still pampering Arnold, just because Arnold will always leave.Why should he scold Arnold because he doesn't understand emotions, tell him it's wrong, but can't explain to him why it's wrong.
What can an alien alien know?His intimacy is only due to the fledgling effect.
Shi Pei thought for a long time before replying, "I don't know if he likes me or not, but this is not the most important question..."
Chen Jian opened his mouth and said in shock, "Could it be that the other party is married?"
"No!" Shi Pei didn't expect Chen Jian to come here, he explained, "He will leave in the future... because of some other things."
"I see..." Chen Jian poured a glass of beer, "What did you just say? 'I'm going to fall in love'?"
Shi Pei nodded, "That's right, because I know... there is no ending, so I hope I don't get addicted to it."
"Haha, Xiaopei." Chen Jian laughed. He had a very good face, and he smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. I've heard the expression 'almost in love,' and it's funny how you describe it."
Shi Pei was a little confused, "Brother Jian, what do you mean..."
Chen Jian said with a smile, "Xiao Pei, don't get entangled, you just fell in love with him, I don't think there is such a thing as 'I'm about to like you', do people still say 'I'm about to dislike you' when they break up? Don't think so complicated .”
Chen Jian's words made Shi Pei feel as if he had been punched in the head, buzzing continuously.
He forced a smile and said, "Like it? It's not like..."
Chen Jian: "Okay, it's useless for me to analyze it for you. After all, it's your own business. I only have one sentence."
He lightly touched Shi Pei's cup filled with coconut milk with his wine glass, and said, "If I were you, my lover would leave, either keep her, or..."
"Go with her."
walk with him.
When he went back, Shi Pei kept thinking about Chen Jian's words.
As a newly married person, it is not surprising that such words can be said with pride.But Shi Pei's real situation is far from what Chen Jian can imagine.
Arnold is an alien alien, and Arnold doesn't understand human emotions.
Thinking about it from another angle, if Arnold is an ordinary person, he just has to go to a very far place, but Shi Pei can still reach it.
If so, will he keep Arnold, or go with Arnold?
If he doesn't have the courage, maybe he should make the same mistakes again.
With the outcome already predicted, he didn't even have a chance to keep Arnold or follow Arnold.
If, as Chen Jian said, he has fallen in love with Arnold, there are too many things Shi Pei is unable to change, because this relationship is different from any other in the world.
When Shi Pei returned to the hotel, Arnold was playing games in the room. For safety reasons, Arnold did not transform into an alien outside.
When Shi Pei woke up in the morning, he met Arnold's bright eyes. This guy didn't need to sleep. After digesting the alcohol, he became alive again.
For the first time, Arnold felt that the night was so long, why did Mr. Shi still not wake up?
He... how could he fall asleep!
Arnold unilaterally believed that the relationship between him and Mr. Shi had entered a new stage. This knowledge made him feel hot all over his body, his cheeks were hot, and his heart was beating profusely. The golden retriever who came to play with him suddenly remembered what happened a few hours ago, and buried his head in the pillow in embarrassment.
Shi Pei glanced at the time when he woke up, but before he could get back Arnold's shyness, he hurriedly washed and put on his clothes and went out like a wind.
Arnold was naturally very disappointed.
When Shi Pei came back, he immediately ran to meet Shi Pei and hugged him as a matter of course. He smelled a stranger's scent on Shi Pei's body, and sniffed around his neck suspiciously.
Shi Pei has been away for 5 hours, he can't wait to say to him
"Mr. Shi, I miss you so much."
Shi Pei was thinking about something, so he let him hug him in a daze, and Arnold smelled it, which made him feel itchy.
Arnold showed him the game console again, and said, "I made new furniture and garlands, do you like it?"
Shi Pei took it in a daze, and saw his island.
In the hands of Arnold, the deserted island that was barren of grass has become thriving. There are cherry blossom trees and small street lamps in the courtyard, and there are stoves and Christmas stockings in the house.
There is vitality everywhere.
The little man with the wreath made a circle on the bridge.
Arnold was still beside him and said, "Yesterday you saw the aurora while you were asleep... I saved a screenshot for you to see..."
Shi Pei looked at his earnest side face, he smiled and said
"Really? Let me see."
If this relationship is different from any other in the world, then this heartbeat is compared to any human being who falls in love...
There is no difference.
The signing of the contract went smoothly, and Shi Pei was given a satisfactory price. After the end, the editor went downstairs with him, and the two had dinner together.
