CHAPTER XXIII
Summer looked at me with straight eyes, and I was a little frightened, to be honest, this was the first time I felt that this girl's eyes were so sharp. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I couldn't help it, so I had to explain: "What I just said me, call me boss, that's what my former assistant called." What's wrong, is there anything wrong? ”
Summer listened to my explanation, frowned and thought for a while, and then the expression on her face slowly unfolded and began to return to normal.
Looking at the change in Summer's expression, I realized that this time the difficulty was temporarily over, and I was a little relieved, and then quickly said: "Okay, go back early, your boyfriend is probably waiting at the door!" ”
When Xia heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand at me, and said in a panic: "Don't get me wrong, it's just my friend, not my boyfriend." ”
I hurriedly said "oh", didn't say anything more, and immediately sent Summer out the door.
After sending the summer away, my hanging heart can be regarded as a smooth fall. After a long sigh of relief, he walked to the study, ready to return to the computer, to find the long-lost inspiration.
But as soon as I walked into the study, I found a figure sitting in front of my computer at this time, which made me unprepared, and I was suddenly startled.
After two or three seconds, I calmed down and looked at the computer to see that it was none other than the white-haired old man, an old man who liked to be elusive, and had come uninvited again.
"Old man, why did you pop up again?"
"It's okay to be idle, come and check your homework." The white-haired old man didn't look up at me, but stared at the computer screen as if he was looking at something.
"Check the fart! I have given up on what I wrote before! I haven't even started writing anything new, you check the hell! I said impatiently.
The white-haired old man looked away from the computer screen and stared at me instead, "It's good that you gave up, if you show me this kind of thing, then you won't be far from going to hell!" ”
The white-haired old man, who has always been smiling and kind, said this, his expression was indeed quite serious, this was the first time I saw it, and I couldn't help but feel a little chill in my heart, looking at the white-haired old man, I was timid, and I didn't know what to say.
The white-haired old man quickly retracted his serious expression and smiled again, "The assistant has been hired?" ”
I nodded.
"It's called the summer girl, why did you choose her?"
"What, why? She was my assistant before, so I'm used to it! I said without thinking.
"Is it really that simple? For no other reason? ”
The white-haired old man asked this, obviously there was something in the words, but the original intention of my choice of summer was indeed as I said myself, purely because I was used to it, and I really didn't think about it so much.
"Old man, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't keep playing tricks there!"
The white-haired old man got up from his seat and walked slowly towards me. He walked up to me, smiled meaningfully at me, then walked around me and headed for the door of the study.
I turned around, looked at the back of the white-haired old man and asked, "Old man, are you leaving again?" It's not coming back this time, is it? ”
The white-haired old man, who had already reached the door, stopped, turned to look at me, and seemed to want to say something.
I stood still, waiting for the white-haired old man to speak. But after waiting for a long time, I didn't wait for him to speak. So he said very impatiently: "Old man, you are old, you can say whatever you want, don't always pretend like this, are you tired?" ”
The white-haired old man sighed lightly, "Actually, I don't have anything to say, I just want to remind you, write novels, take more snacks, don't take out things like that before." ”
"I don't need you to say this, I know it myself!"
"Alright then, I'm leaving!" After saying that, the white-haired old man turned to leave. But as soon as he walked out of the study, he immediately walked back, and said very seriously: "You must remember that your true identity must be kept absolutely secret and not let anyone know, otherwise, I will stop all this at any time, understand?" ”
I looked at the white-haired old man so seriously, and knew that he wasn't joking, so I immediately nodded at him.
"Just remember!" After saying that, the white-haired old man turned around and left again.
I was standing in the study, and I heard the sound of the door opening and closing, and I knew that the white-haired old man had left, so I sat back in front of the computer.
But before the ass was hot, the phone rang.
I quickly picked up my phone and saw that it was a summer call, which made me a little confused, this girl had just left not long ago, what was she calling at this time?
I looked at the screen of my phone, and I felt a little panicked in my heart, and after struggling for a while, I still picked up the phone.
"Hey, hello!" Summer's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What's the matter?" I asked tentatively.
Summer hesitated on the other end of the phone for a few seconds before he continued to speak into the phone. However, I don't know if it was because her voice was too soft, or because the signal was not good, I basically didn't hear what she said clearly, and I didn't know what she said at all.
"Sorry, I didn't hear you clearly, can you say it out louder?"
Summer hesitated on the other end of the phone for a moment, then spoke again, this time her voice was much clearer than before, "Then I just want to ask, where have we met before?" ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"It didn't mean anything else, but when we met just now, there was always a sense of déjà vu, so I kept wondering, where did we meet?"
Hearing Xia say this, I smiled bitterly in my heart, thinking that of course we have met, and more than once, we have seen each other for more than a year, but I don't use the face I have now, but this kind of thing, how can I say it? I had no choice but to continue to fool her.
"Maybe I'm too popular."
After saying this, I once again felt that my ability to make up lies was terrible. Just the white-haired old man gave me this handsome new image, and this brown hair, how can it be considered public!
"Really?" Summer also showed a tone of disbelief on the other end of the phone.
I could only smile awkwardly at the phone, and then continued to find reasons to justify, "You also worked as a writer's assistant before, so you should have participated in a lot of writers' exchange meetings and other activities with your former boss, I guess you met me at that time." ”
I've finally come up with a relatively solid reason.
Summer also agreed with my explanation, and then said to me, "Sorry, excuse me!" He hung up the phone.
It was only at this time that today's troubles came to an end.
