Chapter 122: Fighting
86_86276 "Congratulations, beautiful writer. Ming Xuan handed the juice in his hand to Xia Ruo, the night sky outside the eighteenth floor had already darkened, and the neon world showed the prosperity of the city.
After the signing meeting, because of the good response, the publishing house invited Xia Ruo to participate in the celebration banquet, but Xia Ruo declined, although it was a cooperation object, but a group of people who were not familiar with each other got together to eat, drink and have fun, how did it feel awkward, besides, because of their age, they would definitely have some scruples, it was better not to go to both sides to have fun.
This is Xia Ruo's first book, of course she is happy to achieve such results, and she ignores Mingxuan's ridicule, takes a sip of the juice, puts it back on the table elegantly, and replies: "Thank you for this handsome guy." ”
Mingxuan was about to say something, but he saw that Xia Ruo's mobile phone on the table vibrate, and the caller ID was a big beauty, and he knew that this was Xia Ruo's name for her editor, so he motioned for her to answer the phone.
Xia Ruo smiled apologetically, and after answering the phone, he heard the voice of his editor full of joy: "Beautiful writer, I saw your photos at the scene, I really didn't expect you to have so many readers over." "In the current situation where online literature is getting faster and faster, in addition to the more famous domestic and foreign masterpieces, it is difficult for readers to pay for fast food literature, especially when online piracy begins to become popular, who will spend that effort if you can read books without spending money, even so, Xia Ruo's signing meeting can still have that kind of grand occasion, it can really be called a grand occasion, after all, the audience of a dream for a thousand years is still those little girls in adolescence.
"You also saw the big beauty?" Xia Ruo didn't notice photography at that time, and besides, the editor was still working in a city in the south, so it was impossible to be on the scene.
"Uh, didn't you add a readership?" The excited editor on the other end of the phone couldn't get back to his senses, didn't the group of women invite the author to join the group?
"Nope. I rarely use buckle numbers. "Except for the necessary contact, Xia Ruo rarely chats on the buckle.
"Hmm,I joined what I saw in the post bar today.,If the photo is very photogenic.,Standard little beauty.。 Speaking of which, the editor sighed a little, although there are many authors on the website who have outstanding achievements and excellent results, but they can become famous in one fell swoop. It can be said that there is almost no one who can publish a book at this age. If she hadn't seen it in the post bar, she wouldn't have imagined that Xia Ruo would be so popular, because she was excited, she didn't look up if there was Xia Ruo in the group. However, there is no author in the readership, which sounds enviable.
"The little beauty under the big beauty, are you praising yourself?" Xia Ruo saw that Ming Xuan, who had been waiting quietly on the opposite side, sped up his speech: "My move is over." Wait for Xiaoshui's signing meeting, let's get together? ”
"Okay, I'll go and do some mental construction for her. Don't be pressured because you're in front of you. Hearing the quick hang-up over there, Xia Ruo could already think of how depressed Watermark Jiangnan would be. They were contemporaneous writers because a group pushed each other. Quite a good friend.
Setting the phone to silent, Xia Ruo raised the juice cup in front of him: "To the beautiful man who has been waiting quietly." ”
Ming Xuan hooked the corners of his mouth and touched Xia Ruo's cup lightly. Sipping the drink from his glass.
The heat of the food on the table greeted him with various fragrances, and Xia Ruo couldn't help but pick up the chopsticks: "Starve to death, starve to death." Hurry up and eat. "First pick up a piece of fish meat for Mingxuan, and then start moving.
Ming Xuan looked down at the tender fish in the bowl, it seemed that the memory of being picked up by someone only existed before the age of six, whenever he was sick, that woman would also take care of herself impatiently, and he was always happy in his heart at that time.
Ming Xuan spread out the fish meat with chopsticks, and the fine thorns inside were separated little by little, he picked very carefully and waited until he was sure that there were no thorns before putting it in Xia Ruo's bowl.
Xia Ruo, who was poking the rice in the bowl with chopsticks to eat, raised his eyes after a pause, his eyes were full of seriousness: "Mingxuan, what do you like to eat?" He knew that he liked to eat mushroom food, not irritating things, and he was always stuck eating fish, so what did he like, Xia Ruo suddenly wondered.
Ming Xuan was stunned for a moment and replied, "I'm not a picky eater. ”
Xia Ruo didn't answer, just looked at him vigorously, which made Ming Xuan a little hesitant rarely: "I don't like bitterness, only this is the only one." "It's like forcing him to say what he likes.
"Then eat sweet?" Xia Ruo sandwiched a piece of the horseshoe cake in front of him and sent it to the plate in front of Ming Xuan, seeing that his somewhat tolerant eyes were a little mischievous, Ming Xuan didn't like to eat sweets very much.
Ming Xuan sandwiched the horseshoe cake into his mouth, and there were some broken lotus roots in the transparent paste-like object, and the sweet taste would not be offensive, of course, on the premise of eating only one piece.
"Ruoruo." Ming Xuan sandwiched a piece of shiitake mushrooms and a piece of tofu for Xia Ruo, obviously begging for mercy.
"Look, you know what I don't like and what I like, but I only know in general terms that you don't like bitterness, it's too unpleasant, so you have to tell me little by little, I can't think of it now, it's okay, tell me when you think of it, okay?" For the extraordinarily considerate Ming Xuanxia, if he wanted to get closer to him a little bit.
Ming Xuan nodded, and was about to say something, but heard footsteps approaching.
Seeing the two people next to the bed, Jiang Haiyan, who was smiling and saying something to the person next to her, subconsciously grabbed Mingxuan on the other side of herself, and didn't know if she wanted him to stop or something, but Minghui on the side had already discovered Mingxuan in his sight, his brows were slightly wrinkled, but he quickly let go, and continued to walk over with unhurried steps: "Xiaoxuan, you are also here?" ”
Mingxuan took care of himself and gave Xia Ruo a dish before putting the chopsticks on the chopstick holder, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin and said sideways, "Aren't you also here?" ”
For outsiders, he has always been like this kind of oil and salt do not enter.
"Mingxuan, why are you talking to my dad like that." Mingliang couldn't help but interject, he used to call Uncle Ming very affectionately, but as soon as he said this, he received a cold glance from Ming Xuan, and suddenly he didn't know how to say the words later.
Ming Xuan raised his head slightly and looked at the three people standing a meter away from the table, the light above his head hid the cold light in his eyes, look, just a sentence and couldn't help it, what if you knew the truth?
Jiang Haiyan anxiously grabbed her son, Mingxuan, who even her husband was afraid of. How could she feel at ease to let her son stay close to him, even if it was at her husband's behest.
"Yes, we all chose to eat here, it seems that the food here is really good," Minghui said indifferently, and looked at Xia Ruo on the other side very generously: "This is Miss Xia Ruo, I heard Mingliang talk about you." A little girl with particularly good grades. Looking at it now, it's really clever, haha. ”
"Thank you so much." Hehe. Xia Ruo pulled his facial muscles and laughed twice, haha What hahaha, uncle, where did you see that I was clever?
Xu felt that Xia Ruo's answer was not sincere enough, and Minghui laughed twice before stopping. I secretly hated in my heart, no wonder I met Mingxuan's eyes. The same is not listening.
"I'm happy to see your uncle today, if you want to eat, you can order it, and your uncle will treat you." Minghui kept mentioning the word uncle, as if he really had a bad relationship with the Ming family.
"Mr. Ming is polite. I only remember that the Ming Group has two brothers, Ming Sirui and Ming Siqi, and there are no other brothers, so I don't dare to recognize relatives casually. After all, there are so many liars in society now, who knows if it is the murderer or a relative who will be recognized? Ming Xuan added juice to Xia Ruo. I wasn't interested in seeing Minghui's face change, so he said indifferently: "Isn't Mr. Ming going to eat, don't embarrass the waiter." ”
The smile on the face of the waiter who was leading the way in front had already changed from thirty degrees to fifteen degrees, as long as anyone with long eyes could see that the little handsome guy was very impatient, sir, did you come over to eat seriously?
"Let's go to dinner, let's eat, do you want to come with us?" Seeing that her husband's face was wrong, Jiang Haiyan hurriedly started a round.
"Thank you, Aunt Jiang, just leave me alone." Mingxuan stretched out his hand and signaled, Minghui took the lead in turning his head and leaving, he really didn't even do superficial work.
"......" Mingliang glared at Ming Xuan angrily, but was pulled away by Jiang Haiyan, who had been watching him, before he got angry.
Really, why did you choose to come here to eat, Jiang Haiyan was a little anxious, looking at her husband who exuded a very unhappy atmosphere, and sighed helplessly, now go? With the temper of both of them, they won't agree, right? It's just that Mingxuan's temper has really changed a lot as they said?
Minghui, who turned around, had a hideous smile on his face, and he was doing psychological construction for himself over and over again in his heart, because he was the heir of the Ming family, so he was so fearless? How long do you think you, the heir of the Ming family, can be, one day, I will let you, a little cub, learn how to respect your elders.
"Daddy." was deliberately taken to the side of another aisle by the waiter, and Bright looked at his father with some concern.
Minghui replied while arranging the dishes: "What's the matter, aren't you hungry, sit down." "Calm and calm, he is the personable man again.
Jiang Haiyan sat inside him and said with a smile: "Mingxuan's temper is getting weirder and weirder, is Liangliang like this at school?" Trouble to bring the menu. Jiang Haiyan's purpose is to know Mingxuan's temper at school, but he is just saying that he himself is the appearance of no one in his eyes, and he is just trying to redeem his husband who has just lost his temper.
Minghui's hand holding the napkin paused, and said with a smile: "What do adults and children care about, don't talk nonsense when Liangliang sees you Uncle Ming, do you know?" ”
He might as well have been to Ming's house, the only place where he can see Ming Sirui is the company, and he can only call him the chairman, thinking about it, Mingxuan really can't call himself Uncle Ming. Minghui took a sip and calmed his heart, his eyes burned with ambition, even a side branch would turn the tables, who could tell what would happen in the future.
Mingliang nodded: "I really don't know how Mingxuan became like this, I must know the reason for his change." Mingming, because of Mingxuan's attitude towards his father, was particularly unhappy, and he spoke with the stubbornness of a teenager.
Jiang Haiyan handed the ordered menu to the waiter, and complained softly: "One or two of you are explaining Xuan, why don't you sit together and ask for understanding?" The tone was intimate as if they knew each other well.
Minghui waved his hand, the waiter had already bowed down politely to deliver the order, Minghui's face was calm to indifferent, and his tone was soft: "Don't bother the two of them." ”
"You're alright." Xia Ruo took the initiative to take Ming Xuan's hand, it was already the weather in July, and Ming Xuan's palms were still a little cold.
"They don't deserve my anger, don't worry." Ming Xuan took Xia Ruo's hand and walked forward, and after walking for more than ten steps, he suddenly asked, "Am I going to be bored?" More than ten years have long made him accustomed to being silent, although he has been trying his best to change, but he is still not as sweet as other people's boyfriends.
"No, I'll be pressured if you talk too much," Seeing Ming Xuan's puzzled look, Xia Ruo turned sideways and walked back facing Ming Xuan, his eyes full of soft smiles: "Look, you are handsome and can make girls happy, don't I have to worry." ”
"No, I just want to make you happy." Ming Xuan was very serious and assured, but his calm words were like an eternal oath.
Hmm, Xia Ruo's backward steps paused, and she almost tripped over a raised piece of floor, Ming Xuan pulled her hard, because of inertia holding her in his arms, the heartbeats of the two people were fluttering, as if they were fused together.
Xia Ruo blushed a little, for this bloody plot, who else said that cold-faced men would not speak sweetly.
Ming Xuan hugged Xia Ruo tightly, the pedestrians in the near distance, the vehicles not far away, and the lights in the distance all faded into the background, even if they were few words, they could learn to speak sweetly in front of their beloved, because it was the voice in their hearts.
"Well, this doesn't taste very good." Xia Ruo handed Ming Xuan a piece of the food in his hand, and when he saw that his face remained unchanged, he asked curiously, "How is it?" ”
After staying in H City for a day, Mingxuan and Xia Ruo went to the southern water town together, and the signing meeting of Watermark Jiangnan was here, and they came to this town full of ancient charm in advance, to see the customs and customs that are different from the city, and the main thing is to taste the food here. When traveling to a place, food is the most indispensable thing.
"Okay." The glutinous rice is a little sticky, and it is not easy to digest if she eats too much, Ming Xuan took something similar to salty zongzi in Xia Ruo's hand to prevent her from eating too much.
Xia Ruo ate the rest of the bamboo skewers, it was still weird. In fact, the food of these well-known attractions is similar in the north and south, which gathers everyone's tastes and loses its own characteristics. Like, everyone in life is always easy to lose themselves.
"Let's go to the front again." Just like Xia Ruo has a phobia of denseness, Mingxuan doesn't like crowded places, the more lively he is, the more he seems to be intolerant of this world.
However, when a person focuses on a certain point, they are not susceptible to external influences, just like Xia Ruo is looking for food while he is looking at her.
The black and white sketch-like Jiangnan water town has become rich because of the people in his eyes, and Mingxuan feels that it is not bad for the two of them to look for it with interest.
