I'm not a scumbag[Transmigration Book]

Until he drove back to Jingyuan, Yi Nanyan was still depressed.

"Baby, what are you angry about?" Lu Linxi unbuckled his seat belt and approached her and asked.

Yi Nanyan: "I will take the check book with me from now on."

Lu Linxi:?

"Don't persuade me, it's useless!" After speaking, President Yida got off the car arrogantly.

Lu Linxi was stunned for a moment, then got out of the car, closed the car door and said with a smile: "Baby, what are you fussing with her? Didn't you say you want to cook for me?"

Yi Nanyan froze, and her attention was finally diverted. She said without confidence: "I'm not good at cooking."

"I'll give you a hand."

In the end, under Lu Linxi's tough attitude, Yi Nanyan was taken to Lu Linxi's home.

As soon as he opened the refrigerator, Yi Nanyan was stunned by the assortment of ingredients.

"Do you usually...do you need so many ingredients to cook at home?" Yi Nanyan seemed to understand why the food he made was unpalatable.

Is it because there are too few ingredients?

Take a look at the refrigerator in Lulinxi. There is no shortage of everything from beef and mutton to fruits and vegetables. There are also milk and eggs in the side compartment of the refrigerator.

"Not at all. After Gu Shuang came, in order to give her a balanced nutrition, I usually prepared a few extra items in the refrigerator." Lu Linxi took the apron and put it on for her.

Yi Nanyan's eyes darkened, "You are really kind to Gu Shuang."

Lu Linxi was keenly aware of the sourness in her tone, and she was immediately happy, "She is a special soldier. In many cases, a healthy body is the hope of survival for her. And these are the ones that Gu Shuang asked me to buy. Yes, these are the meals she usually has in the army, and I just bought some for her according to the list."

"I will take three-quarters of her monthly salary of 12 yuan. This requirement must be fulfilled by my sister." Lu Linxi said in a wolf-tailed tone.

"You mentioned three-quarters?" Yi Nanyan was speechless for a moment, "Then you really..." She wanted to take away 12 of the 9, and no big capitalist dared to mention that.

The black heart is still your Lulinxi black heart.

Lu Linxi didn't take it seriously, "I'll include food, housing, clothing, and marriage." Lu Linxi counted with his fingers, "In the future, when Gu Shuang marries a wife, I will still have to buy her a house and get a bride price. Where can I find such a good boss?"

"You're raising a daughter, right?" Yi Nanyan cast a sidelong glance at her, and went straight into the kitchen.

Lu Linxi whistled, "Honey, this apron really suits you!"

Yi Nanyan: "It's okay!"

"Hey." She looked even better naked.But Lu Linxi didn't dare to say that, only dared to think for himself.

……

President Yida only has one hand to move, so Lu Linxi did everything he could.

Wash the meat, chop the vegetables, and even the seasoning spices are neatly stacked and placed in a bowl for later use.

Yi Nanyan looked at her neatly holding a kitchen knife, feeling a little envious.

The aggressive sound when cutting vegetables is also very clear and neat.

The sliced ​​ham is arranged one by one, which is simply a gospel for obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Lu Linxi is really good at cooking.

I can't help being a little envious of Gu Shuang, who can eat delicious food every day.

"What... do you want to eat?" Lu Linxi turned back subconsciously.

Yi Nanyan said with a straight face, "Isn't it me?"

Lu Linxi looked at Yi Nanyan who was wearing an apron, and then at himself who seemed to be "occupying the magpie's nest", and smiled instantly: "Okay, you come to fry, but is there any problem with your one hand?"

Yi Nanyan shook her head, "I'm fine."

Then, she took the shovel from Lu Linxi's hand.

... Fortunately, the right hand can move.

"Hey baby! Too much oil! Too much pour!"

"Are you going to fry it or not!" Lu Linxi stood aside and watched in surprise, "Wait until the oil is hot before adding the meat!"

Yi Nanyan was only able to move his right hand, and immediately became flustered, and asked, "The recipe says the right amount..."

"Appropriate amount means that you can dip the oil in the bottom of the pot is enough!"

Yi Nanyan tilted her head in doubt, "Really?"

"It's burnt! It's burnt, it's burnt!"

"Oh, oh!" Yi Nanyan hurriedly scooped up the meat, but unfortunately, the ham had already turned into a burnt state.

Lulinxi: ...

"Honey, your hand is still hurting, should I do it?" Lu Linxi felt a little regretful, he already knew that he would not say that he wanted to eat the food made by Yi Nanyan.

Seeing that she was helpless with only one hand and still at a loss, Lu Linxi felt very regretful.

But Yi Nanyan's self-esteem also rose now.

"I'm going to do it." She pursed her lips and emphasized, "I can cook, I can."

Lu Linxi sighed: "Okay."

"Lu Linxi, go to my house and help me get the recipes on the bedside table in my bedroom." President Yi Da ordered.

Lu Linxi: "Okay. Then can you do it yourself?"

That is, why is the cookbook on the bedside table in the bedroom.

"I can." President Yi Da nodded solemnly.

……

after an hour.

Two dishes and one soup were put on the table, all from President Yi.

A plate of scrambled eggs with slightly burnt ham (already re-made), a plate of mapo tofu, and a plate of fatty beef soup with chopped peppers.

Well, no problem.

Lu Linxi: "Honey, can I move my chopsticks?"

Yi Nanyan nodded, "Eat."

So, move your chopsticks.

Lu Linxi picked up the ham first, well, although it doesn't look very good, it looks burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

Chew it, chew it, sure enough, apart from being a bit salty, it's actually not a big problem.

As for Yi Nanyan beside him, after taking a bite of tofu, he put down his chopsticks.

She took the tissue gracefully, wiped the corner of her mouth lightly, and said seriously, "Don't eat it, it's really bad."

The few dishes in front of her, the taste in her mouth that was numb to the point of losing her sense of taste due to too much pepper oil, reminded her of many bad memories for a while.

"What to eat! Can this food be eaten? Yi Nanyan, you clearly know that I came home today to find trouble, right?"

Recalling the scene of Zhang Bowen overturning the desktop, Yi Nanyan lowered his eyebrows slightly.

"I'll order takeaway for you. There are several delicious five-star hotels outside Jingyuan, all of which support delivery." Yi Nanyan immediately took out his phone, as if he was looking for a delivery number.

Lu Linxi didn't stop her from ordering takeaway, but picked a piece of ham. Lu Linxi picked a piece of ham, wrapped it with rice, and ate it with big mouthfuls, "It's okay, I can eat it."

Yi Nan hadn't made a phone call for the takeaway from Cigarettes, seeing her like this, he felt sore——

"It's not delicious... how can you eat it?"

"It's delicious, but the ham is a bit burnt."

Seeing that Lu Linxi was eating deliciously, Yi Nanyan showed a blushing expression. She didn't understand why she could still eat something that wasn't tasty at all.

Is it to save face?

But Yi Nanyan feels that if it doesn't taste good, it doesn't taste good, and there's really no need to force it.

"Why can you eat so deliciously?" Yi Nanyan didn't understand, propped his chin, and stared at her intently.

"This is made by my baby." Lu Linxi said, "Besides, I have eaten all the most unpalatable things before."

"before?"

Lu Linxi froze, smiled and whitewashed Taiping and said: "Ah... my aunt's cooking is also quite unpalatable. You know, people in the army only care about nutrition, but don't care about the taste."

"Baby, you have to think this way. Someone willing to make it for you is the greatest happiness. And to be honest, your plate of ham is quite delicious. You fried it with a charred outside and tender inside. .” Lu Linxi gave a thumbs up.

The uncomfortable feeling in her heart suddenly dissipated, Yi Nanyan put down her phone, picked up a piece of mapo tofu, and put it in her bowl, "Then you try this."

Lu Linxi didn't think much about it, and put it in his mouth.

Then Yi Nanyan saw that her face was instantly numb to the point of discoloration.

"Pfft—is it still delicious?" Yi Nanyan asked her with a suppressed smile.

Lu Linxi looked up bitterly, "Honey, I'm numb."

"Hahaha..." Yi Nanyan laughed heartily.

Seeing her smiling so happily, Lu Linxi thought to himself, it's just a nuisance.As long as my baby is happy.

Lu Linxi pushed away the plate of mapo tofu, "This plate, pass it on. Now let's try Chef Yi's chopped pepper fat beef soup!"

"Okay!" Yi Nanyan raised his chopsticks again.

Lu Linxi half opened his mouth, ah——

Yi Nanyan:?

"what happened?"

"Because I'm numb, I can't hold the food anymore, I need Chef Yi to feed me!"

Yi Nan paused, then smiled and said, "Okay."

Then, she extended her chopsticks to the plate of tofu.

Lu Linxi had sharp eyes, pressed her hand, and said angrily, "What do you want?"

Yi Nanyan hooked her lips, "Don't you want me to feed you?"

"Feed the fat cow! Don't eat that tofu!"

"Didn't you say you can eat it no matter how unpalatable it is?" Yi Nanyan pretended to sulk up his face, "I also made this plate of tofu, do you want to eat it?"

Lu Linxi became anxious, "But..."

"Forget it." Lu Linxi accepted his fate, closed his eyes, opened his mouth, and said as if death was at home: "Come on!"

I have already made preparations for hemp in hemp, but the food has not been fed in for a long time, Lu Linxi still can't stop urging: "Baby?"

Suddenly, Lu Linxi felt something blocking the light above, and a shadow fell from above his head.

Immediately afterwards, two softer lips fell on the slightly parted lips.

Lu Linxi opened his eyes suddenly.

Yi Nanyan was standing beside her, leaning over slightly to block her light.

And the faces of the two are very close at hand.

Before she even had time to move her lips away, Lu Linxi opened her eyes and caught her.

Yi Nanyan:! !

"Hey... baby, so you are talking about this "tofu"?If you want to talk about this tofu, then I am very good at it. " Lu Linxi pulled her waist.

Yi Nanyan fell unsteadily towards her.Lu Linxi turned around and sat sideways on her lap.

Lu Linxi hugged him and smiled contentedly, "Baby, are you greedy for me? You are eating well, why did you secretly kiss me?"

Yi Nanyan glared angrily: "Lu Linxi!"

I wanted to say something, but I really didn't have the confidence, so I could only say angrily: "I...you...I didn't kiss you secretly..."

"what is that?"

"I..." Yi Nanyan thought for a while, but couldn't think of any reason to explain it.

"Hush—" Lu Linxi hugged her waist tightly, and put one hand on her lips, "Don't explain, my heart is beating so fast right now."

Yi Nanyan took the initiative to kiss her?

What's so good about this?

Can't believe it.

Seeing her leaning on his shoulder obsessively, Yi Nanyan said softly: "I didn't kiss you secretly, I just kissed you openly, so what?"

She also wanted to see how Lu Linxi blushed.

However, Lu Linxi did not live up to her wishes, and his arms holding her tightened more and more. He leaned on her shoulder and said in a muffled voice, "You just tease me. The doctor said, you'd better not go into estrus recently."

"Ah."

"But I still want to punish you." After Lu Linxi finished speaking, he bit Yi Nanyan's collarbone.

A little bit of pain stimulated the nerves of the brain, Yi Nanyan couldn't help but grabbed Lu Linxi's hair, and leaned his whole body back, but he couldn't escape the pain.

After a while, the pain disappeared.She asked ignorantly, "What are you...doing?"

Lu Linxi raised his head, grinning with his mouth crooked, "Leave a strawberry mark for you."

Strawberry print?

Yi Nanyan blushed, "Isn't that only... available?"

Ok?

Lu Linxi didn't hear clearly, "Baby, what did you say?"

"I said... Strawberry prints, don't you only keep them when you want to do...?" Yi Nanyan turned his head and asked a little embarrassedly.

Lu Linxi was taken aback.

Grass, her baby is too pure.

Lu Linxi leaned on her shoulder, and could smell the unique pheromone smell on her body - the fruity aroma of lychee.

"Honey, the strawberry prints are all sucked out. The difference is that now I will only print one for you, but when you do it with me, I will definitely... will print your whole body."

Lu Linxi couldn't help but stretched out her head, and gently kissed the pink mark on her collarbone.

A shivering sensation went straight from Yi Nanyan's collarbone to his brain.

I don't know if it's because of her kissing action, or because of her crazy saying that she wants to print herself all over her body.

"Honey, are my legs comfortable?" Lu Linxi scratched the tip of her nose, "If you don't eat any more, the food will be cold."

Yi Nanyan was a little ashamed, and she didn't come up because she wanted to sit on her lap!

She came out of her arms, and angrily brought the plate of mapo tofu on the table to her, "You eat this!"

Lu Linxi:?

Yi Nanyan said: "Only eat this!"

Lu Linxi:? ?

……

On the other hand, just like the news Yi Nanyan received, the shareholders of the bank could not directly make decisions, and the loan application of the Leah Group had already been sent to the relevant departments.

"Such a high loan amount? Lia Group?" The person in charge pushed his glasses, "I know Lia Group, it's engaged in real estate, right?"

"Yes. Fengyun, the two leaders in City G, has disintegrated, and the boss named Su Qingguang is still in prison for tax evasion.

As soon as this good fortune is gone, only Lia's family is left in G City, and the loan probably wants to take advantage of the opportunity to expand its capital strength. "

"The real estate industry has been making huge profits in the past few years." The person in charge sighed, "The good luck has gone, and Leah's ambition has come out. What do the bank shareholders say?"

"The shareholders of the bank didn't dare to make decisions, and said it was up to us."

"Heh, look at ours. What's the use of us? I am a small minister, and I can directly approve this application form? Who dares to guarantee the amount on this form?" The person in charge didn't want to cause trouble. Immediately said, "Return it. The bank knows how to deal with it."

"Good minister. But in the morning...the mayor of City G called and wanted to invite you to dinner."

"Put it politely." The mayor of City G obviously came here to intercede for Lia.

If this Lia really got up, the annual tax alone would be enough for the mayor of City G to be happy.

It is not surprising that he was persuaded to become a lobbyist for the Leah Group.

"But the minister, the mayor said that he was calling for someone." The subordinate's voice was full of doubts, "He said the person's surname was Xie."

"Thank you?" The word circled in the minister's mouth, and then he raised his eyebrows, "Thank you for what?"

There are quite a few people surnamed Xie.But it still has to be taken into account...

Before the subordinate finished speaking, he found that his minister stood up suddenly, with a serious expression: "Where is the appointment? Did you say anything to talk about?"

The subordinate was taken aback, and whispered, "I... I didn't ask."

"Uh..." The minister looked resentful, "The mayor can make a call for you. How many people do you think can do this?"

And the other party's surname is Xie...

The minister rubbed his chin, a little unsure, "If it's really her...but why did Xie Yunjie find me?"

"The minister, what should we do now?"

"Call the mayor back, and I will ask in person."

"it is good!"

……

After not worrying much about the company's affairs, Yi Nanyan seemed to have suddenly unloaded a heavy burden, and she had enough free time to move a recliner and bask in the sun in the villa yard.

The sun in winter is not too strong, but moderately warm.

Yawn and drowsy.

Lu Linxi sat next to her, swiping his phone alone——

[Field on the set!The newcomer is a tough actress, Gao Wen splashing water on the newcomer is not acting!Say it again!Not acting! 】

[The newcomer played big on the first day of joining the group, and was angrily splashed with a bottle of water by the actress! 】

[Have you ever seen "Jiang Xiaoguo" who plays big like this? 】

["Youth" rookie actor, the little bodyguard who finds fault in public, is splashed with water by the actress! 】

Lu Linxi flipped through them side by side and raised his eyebrows.

Yu Xuan's luck can be said to be extremely unlucky.

It's okay to be a few minutes late for playing big cards, after all, she has a financial backer, and the crew will not care about her.

Wanting to drink water ended up finding fault with Gu Shuang on purpose, and Gao Wen poured a bottle of water over his head in the end, which was fine, there were so many people present at the time, but absolutely no one dared to casually reveal this stuff.

As a result, who would have thought that there were paparazzi present at that time.

In less than a day, Yu Xuan's name was on the hot searches.

Enthusiastic netizens opened it up directly.

Now what is Yu Xuan's name, how old is she, and what she has done before, all of them have been revealed.

Even Lu Linxi and his work "Youth" became a hot search.

There is a lot of scolding on the Internet.

Because he couldn't die, the reporter took pictures of the whole incident.Yu Xuan angrily lashed out at Gu Shuang's sharp and famous face, all of which were clearly revealed.

Lu Linxi was a little worried, and Gu Shuang was also filmed in this video.

Gu Shuang's previous occupation was too dangerous and confidential, and she was worried about it when she introduced Gu Shuang to Gao Wen.

But in the end, because Gu Shuang himself was low-key enough, and because the progress of filming with Gao Wen on the set would not be exposed to the spotlight, he agreed.

Unexpectedly, this talent was photographed on the first day there.

With such concerns in mind, Lu Linxi clicked on the video.

But at the end of the day, she could only smile.

Although there was Gu Shuang in the video, her face was completely mosaiced.The author of the video personally responded——

[Miss Bodyguard is very beautiful, the code is coded because she is an amateur, and she herself said that she doesn't like being photographed.

Although I am a reporter, I still have the basic qualities!In addition, thanks to Ms. Yu Xuan for providing this material.I love you.jpg]

Gu Shuang was not photographed, but Gao Wen became popular again because of this video.

[Sister is mighty and domineering! 】

[Now there are some small stars in the circle who don't know how many lines are really outrageous!On the first day you entered the studio, you played big names, but now you're slapped in the face?Is that bottle of mineral water cool on your face? 】

【It deserves it!My sister is mighty!Why do you bully our bodyguard lady? ! 】

[Sister is mighty! ! 】

[Am I the only one who cares more about Miss Bodyguard's looks?Miss Bodyguard's figure is not tall! 】

[Upstairs, my sister is wearing high heels, haven't you noticed?Miss Bodyguard is only a little shorter than her sister who wears high heels, by visual inspection she should be about the same height as her sister! 】

[Sister is still so beautiful! 】

【Hahaha I always thought that Wenwen was the gentlest angel in the world. She was well-known in the circle for her good temper, but this time she exploded!Great! 】

[To be able to force my gentle sister to pour water on her head is absolutely amazing, my sister must be very angry!It's great that Miss Bodyguard is fine! 】

[Ah grass, I want to knock my sister and miss bodyguard for no reason! !The two of them look so good together! 】

[Row upstairs! 】

[But my sister is A... I can be my sister's bodyguard, let me guess, Miss Bodyguard is also A? 】

[AA ah...]

[AA becomes BE in an instant, hey! ! 】

[I don't care if Miss Bodyguard is O! 】

[Upstairs is outrageous, does AA have a real hobby? 】

【Can't AA be in true love?Are you outrageous? 】

[Speaking of which, I am also chasing "Youth" in which my sister participated!Is there a baby you are chasing together? 】

[I feel that the question you asked upstairs is very stupid. I will not pursue "Youth" by Luda, will I? 】

[I'm chasing the serialization of "Qing 2", my god, I've been almost made to cry by Sister Nian and Xiao Guotian recently! 】

["Blue 2" has not been updated for several days]

[So Lu Da went to shoot a promotional video for the movie, so it's broken? 】

[Lu Da is really wrong, what she writes now is so sweet, I feel like I can see Niannian and Guoguo HE in my lifetime. 】

[Deer please update! ! 】

【Did Lu Da find someone he likes?I feel that the style of writing recently is really sweet as hell! 】

The more Lu Linxi looked down, the more he found crooked buildings.

[Sisters!Promotional photos are out! !Oh my god, I've changed my style a lot, is she out of style now?What's with that windbreaker, I want to scream! ! 】

[Fuck, this is my deer? 】

[The deer looks great! ! 】

Lulinxi: ...

The crooked building is really outrageous.

"Lu Linxi?" The drowsy Yi Nanyan opened her eyes and found that she was looking at her mobile phone.

"Honey, wake up..."

"I still want to sleep." Yi Nanyan turned over and continued to sleep.

Lulinxi: ...

It's true that Yi Nanyan wanted to sleep, but the noise from outside made it impossible for her to sleep well.

The courtyard of the villa is open-air, so the sound came in without any hindrance.

"What the hell are you doing! The reporters are blocking the gate of Jingyuan, don't you want to explain something to me!"

"Jing Cheng...I, I...we can suppress the news first!" The female voice was still somewhat familiar.

"Suppress if you say so? Do you see where your name is in the hot searches? The first, second, third and fourth are all you!"

The male voice laughed angrily, "You said you were going to film, okay, I'll pay you, even the role of the second female lead, but you made trouble for me on the first day you went to the set!"

"Gao Wen is something you can mess with! Do you know how many years Gao Wen has been in the entertainment industry? When she was ten years old and played the female emperor on the set, you were still the bottom one in elementary school!"

The female voice was aggrieved, "I'm not the last one in elementary school..."

"Then tell me why you are so stupid!" The male voice was exasperated.

"I……"

"Now all the reporters are blocking the entrance of Jingyuan. I told you a long time ago, don't be photographed living in Jingyuan. This is my father's house, and I'm just a temporary resident! If he finds out that you live in Jingyuan Bring a reporter home to cause trouble, and I can't keep you!"

"Jing Cheng, I... I was wrong, I must keep a low profile next time, really! And I really don't understand why everyone just scolded me when Gao Wen was the actress who poured water on me! Is it really okay to bully me as a rookie like this?" She didn't even understand.

"Do you think it's Gao Wen's fault that Gao Wen splashed water on you?"

"Isn't it? I'm a newcomer. As the queen of the movie, I should let me go, and you are behind me. She splashed water on me in front of so many people, she just doesn't give you face!"

"Oh... Yu Xuan, Yu Xuan, I really regret it, how could I meet such a stupid woman like you! One of Gao Wen's bodyguards knows not to use his identity as an employer to make a fortune, why don't you know that How about low-key? You just have to cause me some big trouble, are you willing?"

"I... I'm sorry, Jing Cheng..."

Lu Linxi in the yard was amused after listening to the conversation. Gao Wen told her that Yu Xuan lived in Jingyuan, but she didn't expect to meet her by such a coincidence?

The noise outside woke up Yi Nanyan, who had been drowsy.

"Honey, are you awake?"

Yi Nanyan was full of sleepiness, but she was a little bit annoyed to wake up after a good afternoon nap, "Lu Linxi, who is making noise outside?"

She didn't remember turning Jingyuan into such a noisy residential complex.

Lu Linxi smiled awkwardly: "Yu Xuan and her boyfriend."

Yi Nanyan:?

"Who are you talking about? Shouldn't she be on the set?"

Lu Linxi shook his head, "The scene where Gao Wen poured water on her was captured by a reporter, and it has been posted online. Two hours later, the studio where the crew was located was rushed by reporters from various media, and now Gao Wen and Gu Shuang have gone back We should wait until the turmoil subsides before filming resumes."

"It's really non-stop." Yi Nanyan pinched the bridge of her nose, suddenly, she thought of something, and shouted: "Lu Linxi!"

"Huh? What's the matter baby?"

"Where's my checkbook?" Yi Nanyan jumped up from the reclining chair.

Lu Linxi:?

How would she know where her checkbook was?I mean, what are you doing with your checkbook?

She watched Yi Nanyan walk quickly with her arms hanging, and after entering the room, she quickly came out again with a thick check book in her hand.

Lu Linxi watched as she took the check book and went straight to the gate of the villa.

"Honey, where are you going?!" Lu Linxi hurried to catch up.

Yi Nanyan pushed open the door of the villa——

But Yu Xuan was no longer in sight.

She frowned, feeling even worse.

"Baby, what's the matter with you?"

"It's nothing." With a cold face, Yi Nanyan threw the check book to Lu Linxi, obviously venting his anger.

Lu Linxi:? ?

"Lu Linxi, do you know who Yu Xuan's boyfriend is?" Yi Nanyan asked suddenly.

Lu Linxi: "I seem to have heard something called Jingcheng just now?"

Yi Nanyan nodded, "I see. There will be a charity auction on the weekend at Yunhuang, so you can come with me when the time comes."

Lu Linxi raised his eyebrows, "In what capacity?"

Yi Nanyan said as a matter of course: "Bodyguard."

Lu Linxi:? ?

They have all kissed like this, or the bodyguard?

Yi Nanyan understood the meaning in her eyes, and hummed lightly: "When I'm unhappy, you are the bodyguard!"

Lu Linxi laughed, "Then when will President Yida be happy? When he is happy, what am I?"

Yi Nanyan: "Guess."

Lu Linxi reached out to hold her hand, and smiled meaningfully: "It's what I think, right?"

"I don't know." Yi Nanyan said in a low voice, staring at the hands they were holding.

Is there a relationship between her and Lu Linxi...

Yi Nanyan himself didn't know that until now, no one had pierced the membrane between the two of them.

But if we continue to get along, maybe time will tell her.

The author has something to say: Babies, I want to tell you a piece of good news. I will start to support myself from today, about a week, at least 8+ per day (published in two chapters;
