Chapter 20: Eagerness
"That's just that. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info. It's so unladylike," Xu An exclaimed.
Taylor looked at Derek, who looked like a red shrimp, and pouted, "Lady? What is that? Is it OK to eat? β
Under the bright street lamp, the girl's face flashed with a strange light, Xu An looked at her and laughed: "Eat? Perhaps! But I guess it must not be delicious! β
"Haha, that's right, it must not be delicious!" Taylor laughed happily, and then looked at Xu An seriously: "Thank you, An, why are you here?" β
Xu An pointed to the cafΓ© not far behind him, "I followed you when you passed by there, in fact, I almost turned around and went back just now, I don't want to spoil your good deeds." β
"A good thing?!" Taylor looked disgusted, staring at the big blue eyes and exclaiming, "Please, this is really... β
"Ha, just kidding, let's go, I'll give you a section." Xu An said, looking at the tall and tall Derek, he was afraid that the other party would catch up and retaliate against Taylor in a while, don't look at Derek is in pain, Taylor's kick probably didn't have much strength, but the attack point was too deadly, and it won't take long for him to recover.
Taylor hesitated for a moment, and looked at Xu An as he walked forward, "Okay, thank you again." β
"You've said enough thank you tonight." Xu An walked with Taylor with an inexplicable smile, this feeling is very amazing, this is something Stephen dreams of, for this, he is probably willing to come to the bare hand climbing of Angel Falls, "But seriously, I think that muscular man just now is actually pretty good, why don't you think about it?" β
Taylor glared at Xu An frantically, like an angry lion cub, "If you like it, why don't you try it?" Homosexuality is not legal in New York State, but I don't think people look at you in a different light. β
"Oh... Xu An was stunned for a moment and surrendered: "Okay, okay, I have to say that that guy really doesn't look like a good person." β
Taylor smiled maliciously, Xu An was afraid that she would say something disgusting to herself, so she spoke first: "Do you know what your expression looks like?" β
"Huh?" Taylor doesn't know why.
"It's like a little hen that has just laid an egg, clucking, looking at someone proudly, hey, no one lays eggs better than me." Xu An scratched his head a little after speaking, he usually didn't do this, this was like a schoolboy who deliberately grabbed the other party's lollipop in order to attract the attention of the little girl in the same class.
βWHATοΌβ Taylor looked at Xu An in surprise and amusement, "Boy, you can't find a girlfriend like this!" β
Xu An turned his head in embarrassment, took a deep breath, and then kept saying to himself: This is not Taylor, this is not Taylor, this is not Taylor!
Self-hypnosis is very useful, Xu An quickly adjusted his mood, then turned his head, and happened to meet a pair of bright eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he calmed down again, "That's just a sentence I used in the novel today, you don't have to pay too much attention to it." β
"Novels?" Taylor asked with interest, "You still write novels?" β
"Isn't that weird?"
"No, no, you know you're dancing so cool, I thought you were a dancer." Taylor stretched out his hands, shook stiffly twice, and then gave up, "Those movements are so difficult, how did you do it?" β
"It's simple, a strong body, good balance, a sense of rhythm and a little trick...
As the night deepened, and under the bright street lamps next to Central Park, the shadows of Xu An and Taylor were getting longer and longer. Presumably, passers-by would be interested in taking a look at him.
The two almost bypassed half of Central Park and finally parted at the end of 59th Street, Xu An felt that time passed quickly, and Taylor did not propose to cross the park to take a shortcut, but only proposed to separate when he was about to cross 59th Street.
Xu An stood on the side of the road, watched Taylor turn the corner, and whispered, "Ha...... Wonderful night, Stephen, am I fulfilling a wish for you? Get up close and personal with the goddess? β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At night, New York is the most active time, people who have spent a long day in the office need to relax, and night owls have returned to the party after a day of sleep.
The Heline neighborhood seems to be very calm, with the mottled shadows of the mottled trees reflected by the unmaintained street lamps, probably due to the impact of the serial murders some time ago, and this old community, which was not very popular, has become more and more lifeless.
Lance's home can also be seen in the wind, the community residents will basically take a detour when passing by, it is said that the police found a few bones in the murderer's yard, after the cordon is removed, this will probably become a good place to explore.
The small two-story building of the Lance family was still the same as before, and the man had only gone out in the afternoon to mow the lawn, water the flowers and plants, and simply clean the yard, and nothing had changed, and no one could imagine the pain that the family had just experienced.
The light was faintly shining in the windows on the second floor, and Lance's shadow cast on the curtains, looking lonely and sad.
The study was a little messy, Lance was sitting in front of the computer crackling and typing, his waist was straight, his hands were strong, his eyes were staring at the computer screen calmly, and he was working selflessly.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound downstairs, which suddenly woke him up from his state of concentration.
For a moment, Lance seemed to hear footsteps going upstairs, Kelly was watching TV downstairs, Natasha was ready for dinner, and she was going upstairs to call him to eat, hugging behind her back, and turning her head to look at each other and kissing lightly.
After so many days, he still can't get out of his past life, sometimes he wants to leave this house, leave this sad place, sometimes he is reluctant, he is afraid that after changing the new environment, he will never be able to smell that familiar breath again.
In the end, he is ready to dispose of the house, leave Helane, and leave Queens, as written in "Lovely Bones", he must overcome his inner trauma and start a new life, which must be what Kelly and her mom are looking for if they are watching from heaven.
In recent days, he has completed the registration of the rights to "Bones" and "Ice and Fire", and the first third of the manuscripts have been personally sent by him to the publishers he has carefully selected, and at the moment, he is preparing the follow-up plans for these two books.
Although he has not been a publishing agent, Lance's vision is very good, in his opinion, these two are popular books, but they are completely different types, "Bones" is a rare family trauma novel, but the copyright development may be very limited, paper books, electronic versions, at most plus film and television copyrights, and "Ice and Fire" is different, it is a huge world, there are too many things to develop, books, comics, movies, series, games, peripherals, etc.
So, the follow-up plans for the two books are also very different.
However, these plans were based on the successful publication and best-selling of two books.
However, there was no news from the publishing house, probably because the time was too short, Lance thought, but he couldn't wait, "Ice and Fire" could take his time, but "Bones" couldn't, he wanted to see the book published as soon as possible.
He wants more people to see this book, so that Kelly and Natasha, who are far away in heaven, and all the families who have experienced it can see it.
