disappearing light years

At the end of this year, an exciting news came across the ocean. Gu Mingan gave up on emigrating and came back with Yan Shuo and Gu Xiyan.

He Xiaoli always thought that something happened to their work there, and his heart was hanging in his throat for several days. Later, he found out that the reason was that the two of them felt that they were not used to living abroad. Another big company hired with a high salary, so he simply pushed the boat along and returned home.

The timing just so happened that a house for sale was vacant next door to Yan Shuo's house. The original owner and his wife got divorced and were anxious to sell the house. I bought the house at a reasonable price, and since then I have had my own nest in the true sense.

On the day of moving to a new house, friends gathered again, a pot of hot-boiled mutton, a box of Budweiser, and Michael Jackson, who has been popular for half a century, played on the stereo.He Xiaoli blushed from drinking, leaned on Xiang Lang and sighed how well Chi Mu bought the house, how simple the design was, and how transparent the structure was, he wished he could drag out the construction engineer and kiss him a few times; compared to Gu Mingan, he cared more about the loan Questions about aspects, asking about the period and interest at a late hour, and not forgetting to criticize the current disadvantages of today's financial industry, how the banks are black-hearted, and how the people suffer; , his eyes were watering, he didn't dare to stretch out his hands to pinch it, and he had to honestly eat the vegetables that Yan Shuo stuffed into his bowl, it seems that having an elder who is a doctor is indeed a cruel thing for a child.

After drinking for three rounds, the topic changed again and again. He Xiaoli lamented that the house was finished, Gu Mingan lamented that the loan was finished, Yan Shuo lamented that the preschool education and the three meals abroad remained the same. Aimed at Twilight.

Yan Shuo and Gu Ming'an spoke at the same time, they recently met a golden returnee single gay at a new company party, and the conditions are all good, do you want to give Chi Mu a total meeting time.He Xiaoli made fun of them for being ignorant of current affairs, and then took out the "blind date schedule" he had arranged for him as bloody facts. Chi Mu is now in a state where no one can look down on him, and it is useless for outsiders to work hard.

Xiang Lang, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly asked, "Do you already have a sweetheart?"

The originally bustling voices suddenly fell silent.

Facts have proved that people who have never liked to talk can often hit the pain point with one word.

Chi Mu didn't say anything, picked up the beer and staggered towards the window sill, Gu Ming'an and Xiang Lang immediately started to clean up the table silently, Yan Shuo took the full Gu Xiyan back to his home to sleep, He Xiaoli patted his butt , followed by the window sill, closed the glass door on the window sill, lay down on the spot, and dozed off.

Chi Mu suddenly said, "If I say that I really have the idea of ​​arranging a tragic ending for that story, do you have any opinion?"

"I don't have any objections at all." He Xiaoli yawned, "As long as you feel comfortable."

"Mo Lian told me that what I'm writing is not the main theme. The bosses above have great opinions and asked me to finish the article earlier. I won't be able to think of a perfect ending for a while, so I might as well do it like this. "

Chi Mu waited for the person behind him to reply, but there was no sound for a long time. He turned around in surprise, and He Xiaoli was already lying on his side on the ground and fell asleep.

Xiang Lang lightly brought a blanket to cover him, smiled apologetically at Chi Mu, Chi Mu nodded, feeling a little sleepy for a while.

Late that night, Chi Mu sat in front of the computer and began to write the final ending of the story. Two hours later, looking at the word interface with only two lines, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

He got up and went to the kitchen to make a cup of espresso, and then began to wander aimlessly on the Internet. He quickly arrived at the forum created by Jiang Yuchen's fans back then. The Internet confessed to Jiang Yuchen and showed their love loudly. There are still people tirelessly sorting out all kinds of things about him and posting them for fans to share. There are photos, portraits, and interviews.

Chi Mu noticed that Jiang Yuchen's latest interview was on a very famous talk show in the United States. He was a little surprised. The reputation of this show is well-known both at home and abroad. Even if he invites national dignitaries and celebrities from all walks of life to do interviews, the other party will not refuse. To have an exclusive interview with Jiang Yuchen is much better than the interview I did for him.

Chi Mu couldn't help but curiously clicked to take a closer look. After the articulate black hostess made a fun but solemn opening speech, the camera focused on Jiang Yuchen, who had a faint smile on his face and nodded his greetings to the audience.

Every sentence of the black host will have a pleasant rise in the final pronunciation, which sounds very friendly, even though the questions are more tricky and weird.Jiang Yuchen, on the other hand, was very calm, answering cleverly and fluently.The interview skipped one link after another, interspersed with many VCRs similar to his memoirs, and some celebrities in the fashion industry interviewed by the program group commented on this new designer.Naturally, the famous designer Puppy is at the forefront. This "father" who has not disclosed his identity has now played a safe card and said a high-sounding remark, to the effect that the future generations are formidable, Jiang Yuchen's future is limitless, and the fashion industry will welcome Come to a new generation of brilliant and so on.Followed by other designers, as well as the editor-in-chief of some well-known fashion magazines, Chi Mu even saw Mo Lian's face in it, and couldn't help but smile.

Finally, an unexpected person popped up from the VCR, Olivia.

To be honest, since the last time I heard that Olivia was arrested for taking drugs, Chi Mu hadn't paid attention to his news. Seeing how he was sitting in front of the camera in all his clothes, he must have been released.

Olivia said a formulaic compliment, but at the end she suddenly turned around and said frankly that she was about to quit the fashion industry, and she should not have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future. I hope that Claude will go further and further on this road.

The host obviously had no intention of letting go of this big gossip, and took the opportunity to ask Jiang Yuchen what he thought of the rumored boyfriend Olivia's departure.Jiang Yuchen was silent for a while, and simply said, "I wish him success in other industries."

This sentence obviously didn't satisfy the host. She was stunned for a while, and then began to insinuate whether this cutting-edge designer had any new romance.

Jiang Yuchen said: "Your questions reminded me of an interview once. In the past, I didn't agree with what the host said at that time, but now, I kind of believe it."

The host asked, "What do you believe?"

"Believe in things like feelings, the result is more important than the process."

Chi Muben was amused by the host's uncontrollable laughter, but when he heard this sentence, he couldn't help but stop laughing.

Jiang Yuchen said slowly: "At that time, the host argued with me about a question for a long time, maybe this is his character, he looks very easy-going, and he can't give in when he meets something he thinks, I have to admit, I I learned a lot from him that I had been lacking in before, and for the first time, I deeply realized my own shortcomings."

"Shortcomings?" The host smiled, "Is it your living habits?"

"No, it's about mutual understanding between two people. I didn't think there was anything wrong with one person's self-protection before, especially after being hurt. Most people will have this kind of subconscious behavior. When the next relationship comes, don't I will quickly invest in it, but keep a certain distance vigilantly, observe slowly, and consider the other party's sincerity until I see sincere feelings."

The host said: "This is a very good way, feelings are full of variables."

Jiang Yuchen said: "It's a pity that when you see the other person's sincerity, the other party can't see your sincerity more and more. In the end, you are going to devote yourself to it. Maybe the person you love will turn around and leave in disappointment." Lost."

The host didn't know how to continue the conversation for a while, but her excellent professionalism allowed her to change the topic subtly and continue to chat, but Chi Mu lost the quality of continuing to watch.He closed the webpage and brought up the document again. The ending that he couldn't write originally, Jiang Yuchen's phone call brought him a lot of inspiration.

At dawn, he brought the whole story to an end. The protagonist left a ten-year agreement with the leading man, and they parted ways from then on, never to be seen again.

He originally thought that such an open ending would attract a lot of scolding, but it didn't matter, the scolding never stopped from the beginning of the serialization.However, after the magazine was released, Chi Mu accidentally discovered that almost all the emails received were praises. The readers all lamented that the protagonist has finally matured and grown up. He is no longer hanged on a tree and can pursue his own life. Or guess whether the two will meet unexpectedly ten years later and continue their relationship.

Chi Mu smiled wryly, it seemed that the ending she didn't want to see the most was what the readers wanted to see the most.

Among the piles of emails, there are still some inquiries about the booklet, to the effect that I like this story very much and want to collect it.These emails were answered one by one late in the day. It was already lenient enough for such a distinctive story to be serialized after bumps. If it wanted to be published, it would be almost impossible to pass the review.

Chi Mu really thought so, although he did not deny that he had expected it, Mo Lian patted his chest and said that booksellers were all interested in Xia Shu's first novel, but this kind of interest could not go against the sky and violate social harmony , everyone lives in the same hot land, and must follow the rules of this hot land.

But Chi Mu obviously forgot one thing, the magic of Mo Lian often lies in his ability to turn impossible into possible.

On that day, Mo Lian called Chi Mu and said that a publisher expressed his intention to sign "To My Dear One" for publication.Chi Mu was surprised for a long time, and after asking the reason, she finally realized that it might be a coincidence, and most of the reason for this story to be written was due to her own tragic ending.Although novels talking about same-sex love are against the main theme of society, the tragic ending is in line with the main theme of society. Perhaps the reviewers always think that such books indirectly promote the view that "homosexuality will not end well in the end", which can help society grow stronger Growing up, so in terms of publishing, the voice of support turned out to be relatively loud.

Mo Lian said that in order to facilitate the promotion of booksellers, this book is going to be packaged as a popular youth pain novel, and the promotional slogan is "Youth is the most painful memory", so the title of the book can't be so emotional, it has to be changed, as for how to change it, The publisher just said, the more literary and artistic, the brighter and sadder the better.

Just the four words "youth pain" made Chi Mu's stomach hurt for a whole day, but he couldn't think of a good name, and he didn't want to let go of this opportunity.He found He Xiaoli to discuss, and He Xiaoli's advice added liver pain to his stomach pain, "Youth pain? It's very simple. When choosing a name, use a bunch of literary descriptions and stick to 'sad' and 'not sad' The words ''little sadness'' and 'most sad' are ok."

People who are nearly [-] years old want to "little sorrow", and a large number of them can be killed by thunder.

After struggling for almost a week, Chi Mu saw the rosary on his wrist unconsciously.

Some vague memories came one after another. He remembered the song he heard outside the bakery not long ago. The girl sang cheerfully with a guitar in her arms. Missing", perhaps it fits his current state of mind, so I remember it very firmly.

Chi Mu searched the Internet with the mentality of giving it a try, and soon found the result. This song has a name as clean as its lyrics, called "The Lost Light Year".

He officially changed the name of "To My Dear One" to "The Lost Light Year". After the manuscript was delivered, the other editor expressed his satisfaction, and the evaluation he gave was abstract and artistic, with a unique flavor.
