Chapter 22: The little rabbit obediently opens the door
According to Jiang Yucheng's assumption, although Shanshan doesn't have a very good attitude towards herself, but as the saying goes, "Even if you hate me, please don't hate cute girls" (Note 1), according to the results of the previous communication monitoring, Shanshan should be regarded as the upper control of the year, and for the type whose attributes are more mature than herself (Lori), such as Otome, Royal Sister, has always been the one who comes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info especially for things like butt and European pie are very enthusiastic. (But why, she herself refuses to draw the European pie?--this is really a problem, but we have to have time to study it again) Jiang Yucheng had planned to use Xiaoqi as a "bait" to lure Shanshan out, but because he found that Xiaoqi was likely to be the god witch Nana, he had to give up, and if Yu Baochen can handle it here, it must not be difficult to use Yu Baochen to fish Shanshan out......
However, how should I tell Yu Baochen about this? Jiang Yucheng was very hesitant - now Yu Baochen's attitude towards himself is surprisingly good, but after all, a woman's heart is a needle, and it is easy to say that a gentle person like Xiaoqi is going to move, and now it is Yu Baochen, a guy who seems to be a little non-mainstream. With her clumsy appearance, what if she stepped on a landmine again and was despised by her again?
Just when Jiang Yucheng hesitated, a QQ window suddenly popped up on the computer.
Red Lancer:
Is it still there?
(Oh, Yu Baochen just happened to have a message?) Jiang Yucheng noticed that this guy had already sent several messages to himself in the penguin...) In parentheses is the narration, the same below.
Little Fat Man:
I just played the game, what's wrong?
Red Lancer:
Well, then I'll get straight to the point
What's going on these days?
If you want to target Nana, you can't do an article like this.
(I see-this guy is going to tell himself about the newer...) Jiang Yucheng thought so. Having said that, all my thoughts have been on Nana for the past few days, and the confusion of updating or something has passed... οΌ
Little Fat Man:
Oh, yes... Sorry, I've been a little confused lately, and it's a little hard to plan the next plot development...
(Having said that, the things that have been updated in the last few days, even I don't believe that they wrote it by themselves - as for the specific reasons, one is that my mind is not focused on this aspect, and I have no impression of what I have written, and the other is that Yu Baochen has changed too many parts - not so much that I wrote it myself, but that Yu Baochen is writing it!)
Red Lancer:
Oh, that's right
Then I have a suggestion - we might as well appear some "real enemies" to put more pressure on the male protagonist.
Little Fat Man:
No, the male protagonist has always been under pressure, right...
Red Lancer:
No, no, you think so, but the reader doesn't feel it, does it know what the problem is?
One is the problem of not enough to render the atmosphere and describe the scene, and the second is that you have a problem with the direction of the setting.
(Hehe, we really have problems all over our bodies-Jiang Yucheng thought to himself)
As an online writer, of course, you are constructing the world in your own mind, but this is not enough, in order to present the world well in front of the reader, the author must start from the reader's point of view, so that they can be convinced of all this with their own eyes, rather than instilling ready-made conclusions into them.
(That sounds familiar...) Is this empathy? Jiang Yucheng thought, but it's easy to say, but it's even more difficult to do!)
Little Fat Man:
Well, can you elaborate on that a little bit more...
Red Lancer:
I think that's detailed enough.
Little Fat Man:
I can understand what you tell me, but I can't write it just by saying it!
(There is silence for a long time)
Red Lancer:
yes, because the above arguments are also "ready-made conclusions", and I have to convince you of all this with your own eyes...
Let's take "War Queen Plan" directly, the military base you fought before, the aircraft carrier fleet, the US imperialist air force, etc., etc., etc. - their strength may indeed be very strong, but the reader will not feel that these enemies have put pressure on the male protagonist.
Because the fighter girl is a surreal force, and for this reason, the reader's impression that they have already overwhelmed those existing weapons - so no matter how powerful the real enemy is, the reader will not think that they can compete with the fighter girl on an equal footing...
In other words, if you want to make the battle suspenseful, if you want to make the battle interesting, it's better to have some surreal enemies, such as the enemy's machine girl, or a special equipment unit dedicated to dealing with the machine girl...
β¦β¦
Speaking of which, it's the first time I've seen this guy type so many words in one breath - Jiang Yucheng thought to himself, her typing speed has improved very fast... This is also the first time Jiang Yucheng has seen Yu Baochen put forward suggestions on the plot and setting. These things, maybe it's the result of her thinking these days, right? Because her mind is full of Nana's affairs these days, and her conversations with her are very brief, she came up with these things alone?
Wait a minute!
In Jiang Yucheng's mind, an idea suddenly flashed - it seems that this guy is even more concerned about the matter of novels than himself...... In that case, why don't you invite her to your home openly in the name of collaborative creation? When she comes, wouldn't it be much easier to tell her about Shanshan and the right-hand king than to speak directly?
"You must have a lot of effort typing like this, right?" Jiang Yucheng skillfully typed such a line on the keyboard - unlike Yu Baochen, Jiang Yucheng is not only a writer who has written hundreds of thousands of words of novels, but also a programming enthusiast with tens of thousands of lines of code (of course, there is still a big gap with real development engineers), not to mention anything else, at least there is absolutely no shortcoming in typing speed.
"Well, yes. The other side quickly replied - because there were only a few words, even Yu Baochen should not take long to type.
"Then let's not toss around like this, okay?" Jiang Yucheng said, "Are you free tomorrow? I don't have classes in the afternoon, so come to my house for an interview." β
Jiang Yucheng also considered whether there was a more step-by-step statement, but he could only do this, hoping that the other party would not be disgusted.
"Okay, then I'll go to your place in the afternoon. β
Who would have thought that the other party would still reply very simply - if the typing time was deducted, she should have decided immediately. Asking a girl to come to the house, the other party actually agreed without hesitation - intellectually speaking, it must not be because he is really so attractive, then it seems that the guy should have made the decision to talk to him about writing in person! But Jiang Yucheng still felt quite complacent about asking her out so easily.
Well, but since she has agreed, let's make the next step according to the fact that she will not release her own pigeons! Then it is decided--Jiang Yucheng recited two lines of poetry, preparing to welcome Yu Baochen's arrival tomorrow afternoon.
ββββββββββββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββββββββββ
"Well, hello, I'm here......"
Before three o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Baochen appeared at the door of Jiang Yucheng's house a few minutes earlier than the scheduled time - the posture was not as close as last time: her voice was very soft when she greeted her, and when she came in, she even looked left and right inside the house a little, probably looking for Aunt Han or Jiang Yucheng's father.
"Welcome, welcome......" Jiang Yucheng hurriedly led Yu Baochen into the living room, "Let's sit down first......
Yu Baochen is still wearing the black suit as always, but if you look closely, it doesn't seem to be exactly the same as last time: her hair seems to have been slightly combed, looking neater and shiny. And she was not always fully armed like last time, and when she entered the door, she took off her coat and hung it up: just looking at the white shirt with a corset, her figure was not bad......
If it was a simple discussion about books, then it would obviously be a better choice to go directly to the study - but now, Jiang Yucheng's purpose was not here, and to get into the study early was to put the cart before the horse. In this way, Jiang Yucheng led Yu Baochen to the living room. The other sat opposite Jiang Yucheng, leaning on the sofa with his calves crossed, in a posture like the emaciated president in front of the Lincoln Memorial, but his movements were noticeably more restrained: even when looking around and observing the structure and furnishings of Jiang Yucheng's home, her neck did not stretch out too long.
She looks like a normal girl...... Jiang Yucheng thought.
Jiang Yucheng's reason for bringing her over was to discuss novels, but naturally, unnaturally, both of them seemed to feel that they couldn't get to the point.
"I thought it was strange when I came last time-" Yu Baochen suddenly asked, "Your house is also a second-story attic, so why is the door kept closed upstairs?"
Well...... It's really good, what do you want to come to Jiang Yucheng said quietly:
"Ah, that's right. My family is remarried, I don't know if you've heard of this......"
"Oh...... That's right. β
"Anyway, I still have a stepsister named Han Yingshan -- who lives upstairs and is in her first year of high school this year. β
"I see...... Yu Baochen nodded, "When I ate before......
"She had a cold in those days-" Jiang Yucheng decided that it would be better to maintain Shanshan's image - her usual style is to be well-behaved on the outside, and if she pointed out the essence of her dry girl at home, then she would be angry with herself nine times out of ten, "By the way, she is an art student, and she is also a painter on the Internet - the illustration in front of "War Ji Project" was drawn by her. β
"Illustrations?" Yu Baochen was stunned, "Are there any illustrations?"
β¦β¦
"Of course there is!" After a moment of coldness, Jiang Yucheng reacted, Yu Baochen was probably the first reader who didn't care about the illustrations, "It's right in front! Don't you see?!"
"Ah, I read the text directly......" Yu Baochen looked unconcerned.
Jiang Yucheng really didn't know what to say - he had to casually take the surface on the table, open the pages of the book, and then show the chapter of illustrations in front of Yu Baochen.
"There are really illustrations. Yu Baochen looked very surprised, or a little surprised, "This style of painting seems to be quite familiar......
"Well-that's right," Jiang Yucheng was a little proud, "The "right hand king YSW" on the Internet is her account. β
Hearing the name "Right Hand King", Yu Baochen finally reacted a little more, "Eh, I really remembered what you said - I have seen a lot of paintings drawn by her on Station P, and I feel that the painting style is not bad......"
"Why don't we go upstairs and have a look?" Jiang Yucheng asked, "But she has been a little awkward with me recently, and she may not be easy to talk to......
"Well, that's fineβI'd like to meet her, too. Yu Baochen noddedβshe seemed to be quite interested.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed - next as long as Shanshan sees Yu Baochen, then don't worry about Shanshan not opening the door. But in the same way, everything is difficult at the beginning - how to let Shanshan see Yu Baochen has become a big problem in front of Jiang Yucheng.
"Little Shanshan~~~Sister Shanshan~~~~, okay open the door~~~"
Jiang Yucheng knew that he was knocking on the door at this time, especially like the wolf grandmother outside Little Red Riding Hood's door - but there was no suspense in the result, Little Red Riding Hood was not so easily fooled.
"Xiao Shanshan~~~ There are guests at home~~~ Come out and see each other~~~"
Still no reaction - Jiang Yucheng was a little panicked.
"Is she busy now, don't forget it......" Yu Baochen said when he saw this, and he could see that he didn't have any special regrets.
"Ahh......h
But Jiang Yucheng can't be so good at giving up and giving up all his previous efforts!--Cold sweat has already seeped out of the back of his neck--"Nap" and the like are pure nonsense, and she didn't go to school today, so where do you need to take a nap. If Shanshan doesn't know that there is a beautiful young lady outside, Shanshan won't open the door - but if Shanshan doesn't open the door, how can she know that there is a beautiful young lady outside?
Just when Jiang Yucheng's heart rose to his throat, the door that had been closed in front of him for a long time suddenly openedβalthough it was only a narrow gap, it was enough for Jiang Yucheng to see the dawn that pierced through the darkness before dawn......
"Is it the right-hand mulberry?Or is it better to call you Shanshan too?" Yu Baochen smiled at the crack in the door and greeted Shanshan -- but what was the title "right-hand mulberry"!!Jiang Yucheng was a little anxious -- would calling her by her pen name so early give people a feeling of inner determination, hardness, and something like that? What if Shanshan became angry?
"Bang!"
The door closed again - Jiang Yucheng's heart sank with it...... But it's a little different from the dead silence just now? After the door closed this time, there was a crackling sound in the room......
What is this for? Jiang Yucheng was very puzzled -- even if she was really angry, she wouldn't just smash things in the house to vent her anger for this little thing! And it was her room, how would she end up after smashing herself? However, the question was quickly answered -- in the blink of an eye, the door that had just been closed opened again:
"Hello sister~~~~ My name is Han Yingshan, just call me Shanshan~~~"
The girl's boudoir, which was still closed just now, is now wide open, and it looks like welcoming guests from all over the world. And the dry girl who made Jiang Yucheng helpless is now standing in front of the door like a real little princess, with a bright smile on her face......
