Chapter 074: Dating
Mu Chu looked at the blank document on the computer, and reluctantly pressed the return key, almost deleted what he had written before, and he didn't write a word this morning.
Disappointed, she put down the computer, drank a cup of coffee by herself, and went back to her room to sleep.
When he got up in the afternoon, Mu Chu received a call from Zhu Zhengzheng, and had to come out to meet Zhu Zhengzheng at a reserved restaurant.
Zhu Zhengzheng was temporarily absent, doing product promotion in the West Market, and learned that Mu Chu was resting here, so he specially arranged time to come and see her.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Zhu Zhengzheng said a lot of thanks, and suddenly changed his words and asked Mu Chu, "Do you have something on your mind?" I don't think you're in any energy. β
"Ah, me, can I see that?"
Mu Chu touched his cheeks, opened a small mirror and looked at his face, indeed, his eyelids were pitch black, his skin was very poor, and his eyes were dull, as if he was not well from a serious illness.
"I just didn't sleep well, so good?"
"Then take a good rest, and write when the manuscript can be inspired. Hey, I heard...... I heard that Producer Ling's fiancΓ©e went to the crew again. It's good that you haven't passed, otherwise it's really hard to get along with that Mr. Zhen, I came out temporarily, and I escaped a catastrophe. Mr. Zhen went to the crew, and the atmosphere was not very good. β
ββ¦β¦ Well, what? Cheng Zhizhen went to the crew again? Why? β
"It's not clear, it seems to be Mr. Ling's arrangement, and there are rumors that the two families are really going to get engaged."
"Smack!" Mu Chu lost his hand and dropped the fork in his hand.
Zhu Zhengzheng was startled, "Oh, it's okay, the coffee spilled on the clothes, why don't you go to the bathroom to wash it?" β
Mu Chu lowered his head in disgrace, stared at the stain on the coffee for a while, shook his head in a daze, and said, "It's okay, ah...... I'm dressed in white, wait for me. β
Mu Chu got up and ran out, panicked at the door and went back and forth in the wrong three directions before finding the bathroom.
The clothes were washed, but there was still a shallow trace, and Mu Chu came back a little sadly, complaining about why the coffee was so annoying, like dyed clothes.
Zhu Zhengzheng looked at her with a smile, but he didn't say anything in his heart.
Zhu Zhengzheng took a tissue out, "This wipe will be better, why don't I send you back now?" β
Zhu Zheng came by car, and three of the five people in the team came, all of whom were assistants who took care of him, and now the assistant went to the opposite hotel to arrange, so he had time to come out alone.
Mu Chu didn't refuse, thinking that it wasn't too far to go home, and it was really impossible for people to come all the way to the house without inviting them to be guests, so he said, "It's okay to go to my house and sit, let's go!" β
Zhu Zhengzheng did not refuse, on the contrary, he was even happier.
He drove Mu Chu home, where he sat in the living room downstairs.
Mu Chu went upstairs to change his clothes and came out, and made flower tea for Zhu Zhengzheng.
"I don't usually drink coffee at home, and I haven't bought it after drinking it last time, so I'm going to drink tea, I'm really sorry."
"Actually, I just drink plain water. Your home is good. β
This is a very ordinary two-story small house, not a serious villa, it belongs to the old house, Mu Chu simply decorated it, and there were trees before and after buying it, and now because of demolition, they have all been cut down.
"This row is full of old houses, which look dilapidated, but the inside of the houses is pretty good." Mu Chu said with a smile.
"Not old, not old, looks good." Zhu Zhengzheng laughed.
Mu Chu said, "It's quieter here, and after the demolition and construction of the park, it's quieter, which is good, and I bought this place because it's quiet enough, but it's a bit lonely and remote for you." β
Zhu Zhengzheng laughed, "I also like to be quiet, and I can write what I like." β
"Oh, you like to write too?" Mu Chu's eyes lit up, and seeing people of the same kind was like finding the same species, and it was not good to be kind.
"It's just a hobby, I'm writing on the Internet, I'm collecting literature, you know?"
"Ah...... I know, it's very hot, what name did you write, I'll search for it. β
Zhu Zhengzheng was embarrassed to say his pen name.
Mu Chu didn't use a computer search to know the name, it was like thunder.
"My God, you're the mysterious god, and I love to read his books the most. Oh my God, no, no, you wait, I'll go get your physical book, you must sign it for me, haha......"
Mu Chu was so excited, she threw away the computer and ran upstairs to take it down, a total of six copies, and she had collected them for a long time, and she read them several times.
Mu Chu was like a little girl who had seen her idol, her mouth was grinning to the root of her ears, and she carefully opened the first page of the book and put it in front of Zhu Zhengzheng, "Sign, one is done, hahahaha...... Mine, I'm so happy, you're amazing, you don't show your face. Let me tell you, you are writing about the sneak attack on Chang'an, it's so enjoyable, really, if you have the opportunity, it should be made into a TV series, it's really exciting. β
Mu Chu looked at Zhu Zhengzheng's beautiful handwriting on the notebook clearly, and his whole heart was about to fly.
She didn't know how happy she was.
I couldn't understand the madness of the star-chasing clan before, but at this moment, this online writer she admired was right in front of her, and it was like the excitement of the gods falling to the doorstep.
"Hey, you said you said, do you still write a sequel, I especially want to know your arrangement."
Zhu Zhengzheng is usually not very good at talking, but he and Mu Chu seem to be late when they meet, and they can't hold it as soon as they open the chatterbox.
The two of them chatted from Tiannan to Haibei, and from the earth to the collapse of the sky. Inside and outside the book, literary appreciation, after reading the feelings and their own experience, the room is full of the fragrance of words.
Very late, Zhu Zhengzheng's assistant called in, and the two stopped communicating happily.
Zhu Zhengzheng chatted very happily, and was a little reluctant to leave, but seeing that the time was almost up, he didn't want to get up and leave first.
Before going out, Mu Chu asked Zhu Zhengzheng when he would leave Xishi, and she wanted to invite him to come to her house for a light meal.
Zhu Zhengzheng didn't refuse, and said that he would come over in the evening two days later, and wanted to bring his new book outline to communicate with Mu Chu, and Mu Chu agreed.
The two left each other's private phone numbers, and then separated.
As soon as Mu Chu entered, the room was suddenly quiet, like a merciless slap on her face.
Mu Chu kept covering his face in pain and didn't dare to raise his head.
Zhu Zhengzheng's sentence kept echoing in his mind, "The two families seem to be really engaged." β
Mu Chu himself didn't know what he was crazy about, but he couldn't listen to such words, it was as uncomfortable as a needle poke, painful and itchy.
Ling Cheng and her are two people after all.
She rubbed her lips fiercely, the lipstick stuck to the back of her hand, and the shocking color of blood seemed to be bleeding from something.
"Whether I'm sick or not, or I kissed it, and I don't lack love."
Mu Chu ran into the room in a frenzy and locked the door.
In the second half of the night, she got up in a daze, looked at the dark sky outside, and her brain was buzzing.
She forgot why she had drunk so much, and only looked at the bottles all over the floor, one with two big heads.
The night was quiet, and everything fell asleep, except for the insects flying around in the dark night fluttering outside the window.
Her heart could not be quiet.
When Zhu Zheng was in power, she could temporarily forget this helplessness, sadness and even loss, but once people quieted down, their minds would be like a crazy fire, rushing to their hearts.
She was burned all over.
At dawn, Mu Chu drunk himself again, so that he could sleep peacefully all night.
At noon, Yuyu and Lili went out to play like they were at work, and both of them thought that Mu Chu was busy with creation and ignored them, so they didn't come in to disturb.
Mu Chu got up, and the sky was spinning for a while, and there were black flowers in front of him.
She went downstairs to find something to eat, sat on the ground in a daze for a while, and came out with a hoe to shovel the weeds on the intersection.
In the evening, Zhu Zhengzheng's phone called.
"I want to ask you out today to see the scenery, and by the way, I will invite you to have a light meal, is it okay?"
Mu Chu refused without hesitation, "I'm writing a manuscript, I'm afraid it's ......"
Zhu Zhengzheng immediately said, "Don't delay your time, about half an hour, you should also relax, I have something for you." β
Mu Chu didn't want Zhu Zhengzheng to have anything, he still wanted to refuse, "You like your photo Yuyu, but that kid doesn't have enough things, don't get used to her, I ......"
"It's for you, it's not my photo, it's ...... My new book, the one that was only recently launched, didn't you say you liked it? β
Mu Chu took a deep breath, stared blankly at the sunset, and laughed self-deprecatingly.
She knew what she was doing, she knew what she was losing as if she was dead, but the days were going to pass after all, and the fantasies and excitement that those little girls had should have gone too far. It's not enough to torture yourself for four years, it's hard to continue to torture yourself for four years because of a man who has long been denied by yourself?
Mu Chu couldn't help laughing, threw his hoe and stretched towards the sunset, "Hey, it's time for me to run away, really, I still think I'm a little girl, okay, thank you, then I'll clean up now, you wait for me." β
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
In the restaurant, Zhu Zhengzheng sat here early and waited, refused the waiter's request to serve the food three times, and looked at the new books on the table, and his eyes smiled into a line.
The assistant on the other side bowed his head and quickly wrote the recent progress, nodded with satisfaction and said, "They all say that my assistant is unqualified, I don't think it maybe, no, a lot of advertising endorsements are here, I have already got the contract, and we will sign the contract after discussing with the lawyer when I go back, ah?" β
Zhu Zhengzheng didn't think about the assistant, he didn't hear anything, just thinking that Mu Chu, who was sitting in front of him, was happy to see his book, and he couldn't sit still with excitement.
The assistant gave Zhu Zhengzheng a sole under the table, "Hey, what do you want, you're so happy before you get the money, crazy?" β
"No, it's just that the new book has arrived, and I'm more happy."
"Hmph, I said earlier that I would ask you to disclose your other identity, but you didn't allow it, it was always said that it was just a hobby, and it was not enough to publicly fire people. Tsk, what's wrong with you today, so happy, I've never been so happy to get a new book before, what are you...... Hey, who did you date? β
"Mu Bian, Mu Chu."
"Oh, benefactor, you...... Ah......h
The assistant's face was abrupt, and he laughed, "Should you be?" β
"I what, I send books, she likes it."
"Huh, like? If you like it, you can do what you like. Why don't I go back to the hotel at night, let it be left to you? β
