419. The determination to fight against the odds

Liang Yu knew from Huang Yuan that when Chen Nan's new work was cut in half, it was actually after that.

She was hesitant, but she knew she had to make the call.

Fortunately, the phone was not difficult to get through, and soon I heard Chen Nan's flat voice on the other end of the phone: "Hey." ”

"Chen Nan, it's me, Liang Yu."

In fact, this dialogue can almost be omitted, there are only a few registered in Chen Nan's mobile phone address book, and her electric display has already prompted the identity of the caller, but Liang Yu can't get rid of this unfamiliar sense of estrangement.

Chen Nan is too: "Well, it's you." ”

originally thought that after the two people separated, without the entanglements in the past, the relationship would at least be more harmonious than before, but Liang Yu found that without the basis for cooperation, she could only ask Chen Nan as a friend rather than a partner: "I read a magazine recently...... You find that your work is finished, is that right? ”

In Chen Nan's opinion, this greeting was at least 10 days late, although she knew very well that Liang Yu would be very busy when she moved to a new place and new environment, and it was understandable that she didn't pay attention all the time, and the reason why she called to inquire about this matter now was out of concern for herself, not to show off or be sarcastic or something, but Chen Nan's psychology was difficult to balance, and there was an urge not to be like this, or to shout loudly.

But if you can shout out, it won't be Chen Nan.

The last thing she said was a dispensable response.

"Hmm."

"What happened, is it because of "Chess Soul", can't you ask Editor Guo to help communicate about this matter, if ...... I'm here to help. Liang Yu said.

Chen Nan's voice choked in her throat, and she opened her mouth. But she couldn't make a sound, and it took a long time before she said that she clutched her phone tightly and said: "Things are not what you think, in fact, I took the initiative to find an editor to let me end this serialization." ”

"Huh, why?" Liang Yu really looked surprised. Because as far as she knows, Chen Nan's new work was undoubtedly cut in half.

This is naturally true, but Chen Nan doesn't want to lose face in front of Liang Yu, she doesn't want her former partners to see her miserable and depressed appearance now, especially now that the other party is soaring, she doesn't need that charity and pity-

"That's right, it was me and Editor Guo Pinyuan who directly said that we wanted to finish the book, although it was a little capricious. But I didn't want to do it anyway. ”

"Why?"

"Because I feel that the work still doesn't fit my style, the setting is too weak, and it's not interesting at all! So I made an agreement with the editor to reopen a manga and turn everything upside down, and this time, the real goal was the apex of Fantasy. In Chen Nan's mind, he unconsciously remembered what Liang Yu said when he read his original manuscript on the day he left. The talents that I envy and admire, as well as my persistence and hard work, are all denied. in the eyes. I couldn't help but have a warm liquid rolling down, but Chen Nan bit his lip.

"Chen Nan ......" Liang Yu was speechless for a while, she couldn't understand Chen Nan's mood at the moment just by phone, she felt that she might have really done something superfluous. So he apologized, "I'm sorry." ”

"......" Chen Nan looked up at the blank ceiling: "Don't say I'm sorry, you didn't do anything wrong, I'm sorry." I have something to talk about next, so ......"

"Well, I'm sorry to bother you for so long." Liang Yu said softly, "Goodbye." ”

Chen Nan didn't speak again, so he hung up the phone first. She leaned her back against the wall and slowly slid to the ground, the phone slipped out of her hand, she hugged her legs and buried her face deep in her knees: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......"

On the other side, facing the earpiece with only a busy sound left, Liang Yu was stunned for a while before closing the phone.

"What's wrong, Xiaoyu?" Just finished taking a bath, Xia Ji, who came out of the bathroom, asked Liang Yu, she was only wearing a pair of underwear and a scarf on her shoulder, such a way of taking a bath that was not easy to hide reminded Liang Yu of the senior sister who used to live in the same dormitory, I don't know how she and Senior Sister Qianhui are doing now, are they not doing well?

However, Xia Ji still paid attention to her own reputation, she quickly put on her coat, and then walked over to Liang Yu: "Unhappy, have something on your mind?" ”

"Nope." Liang Yu said this, but he staggered his gaze from Xia Ji.

"What's the problem, can I help?"

Liang Yu shook his head while fiddling with his phone with his fingers.

In this way, Xia Ji naturally focused his eyes on her mobile phone: "It seems to be related to the phone call just now, although it can't help, but I can listen to you as a listener, if there is anything unhappy, it may be better to say it." ”

Maybe Xia Ji was born with such a talent, which made it impossible for people to be stubborn or silent in front of her.

When Liang Yu said this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but loosen: "You know that I have been collaborating on comics with a friend before. ”

"Chess Soul?" As a believer in the adage that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible, Xia Ji made up for his comic knowledge before taking Liang Yu as his target, which naturally did not fail to hear of Liang Yu's once famous works, in fact, she also bought all the single books and read them, and it was immediately understood that Liang Yu was referring to Chen Nan.

Liang Yu didn't admit it, but he undoubtedly acquiesced to this point when he continued: "When I was creating, there was a little difference of opinion between us, she was a very motivated person, and she was also a very strict person with herself, it should be said that she was the kind of player who won the championship, I often feel like I am dragging her down......"

"Hmm." Xia Ji listened quietly, waiting for Liang Yu to organize the language.

"I thought she would be able to pursue her goals as she wished if I let go, but she's probably not in great shape right now, or she's trying to get tough. What should I do? ”

Although he didn't see Chen Nan's tears with his own eyes, Liang Yu still felt Chen Nan's loneliness to some extent.

"Hmm." After thinking about it, Xia Ji said, "Or go directly to her side and listen to her truth?" Now, you can get there by plane back to Qiu Nan in the evening. ”

"Uh......" This answer really surprised Liang Yu.

"Just kidding, even I wouldn't do such an incomprehensible thing." Seeing Liang Yu's stunned reaction, Xia Ji said with a smile, but to be honest, for a person who can summon a helicopter and take people to the forest to survive in the wild, her words Liang Yu didn't feel like a joke at all, but inexplicably had a sense of reality.

However, after saying this "joke" that made people laugh, Xia Ji's reaction was more serious: "Yes, if you want to help her get out of trouble, there are many ways, but before that, there is a premise that must be understood." ”

"What is it?" Liang Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Are those things she wants you to do, judging from what you just described, that girl must be a person with high self-esteem, if you make a rash move, maybe not only will it not increase the favorability value, but it will deepen the dislike."

"......" Liang Yu was silent: "You mean not to do anything." ”

"At least, before she asks you for help." Xia Ji said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
