"Miss Zhou, please come here." A tall temperament beauty led Zhou Man inside with a smile on her face. By this time, her eyes had been completely drawn to the colorful decorations and the new environment.

This is the comic company that I have always wanted to do!

The colleagues in the lattice room, dressed up in fancy clothes, turned their fingers and scribbled on the electronic drawing board, sometimes put down the paintbrush and crackled and tapped on the keyboard, and the fresh comic works that had just been baked were playing on the computer desktop, a hot scene.

Zhou Manman secretly looked at the layout of the company, the huge TV screen on the wall, playing the most popular comic book adaptation movies of the moment, and the notes hovering over the company poured into her ears. It's less like a company, more like a hangout for cartoonists.

"Manman, nice to meet you, you can call me Phinea like them." Wang Fei, the person in charge, received her warmly, he was not tall, he had a mustache that was not long, and his long hair was pulled up at the back of a ball head, which looked very artistic.

"Fly...... Phineas. Zhou Manman is not very comfortable with such a title for a while, are the artists so casual?

"We are very interested in your work, we appreciate your talent, and your style of painting is simply lifelike!" The mustachioed Feige spoke little by little, impassioned with a hint of joy. "As the first place in the competition, we want to sign you to become a professional cartoonist, this is our treatment, you can take a look."

After speaking, Wang Fei took out a thick pile of documents from under the table like a trick and handed it to Zhou Manman.

She looked at the dense text, as if it was a book from heaven, and flipped back and forth the pages casually, as if she was seriously looking for something.

"Then, in this treatment, there are ...... Is there a $10,000 bonus? Zhou Chang quickly flipped through it twice, and what she was more anxious about now was the bonus, which was used to pay for her mother's treatment.

"Ten thousand yuan? Is it more than 10,000 yuan? If your work is well received, we will have several 10,000 yuan of treatment! Wang Fei was a little excited after hearing this, the contracted painters of their company are all well-known and powerful people.

"Okay, I'll sign up!" Zhou Manman did not hesitate, and his tone was firm.

"Hey, don't you read the terms carefully?" Wang Fei, who was still excited just now, was slightly stunned when he heard Zhou Manman's answer at the speed of light.

"No need, but ......" Zhou Manman paused, "I want to advance a bonus of 10,000 yuan in advance." ”

"Shouldn't you be interested in our company ....... this? Artists should not be blinded by money! Wang Fei said that the excitement was full of spittle, and the stars flew sideways.

"I thought it was our company that attracted you, could it be that the 10,000 yuan bonus attracted you!"

Zhou Manman was a little embarrassed by him, "I'...... I've been having some difficulties lately...... "Artists are also forced by life......

"The bonus has to go through the process step by step, and the advance in advance does not seem to be in line with our company's regulations."

Wang Fei's expression revealed a little embarrassment, and Zhou Manman's mood suddenly sank to the bottom after hearing this, and it seemed that he had to find another way......

"But...... You are really a talent that our company desperately needs, since artists are in difficulty, I will make an exception for you! After speaking, he waved his hand and asked the secretary to go to the finance to withdraw cash.

Zhou Manman's heart beat wildly, and she tried her best to restrain the excitement of wanting to shout, and at this moment, Wang Fei's image in her heart instantly became taller.

"However, Manman, as a newcomer that the company has vigorously cultivated, I hope you will hand over a comic work to the company as soon as possible." Wang Fei pointed to the contract in front of him and motioned for Zhou Manman to sign.

"Good ......" Zhou Manman agreed stubbornly, but now her mother's illness is more urgent, and as for the temporarily exhausted inspiration, she will find a way to solve it.

She can't wait to rush to the hospital when she comes out of the comic company, and she wants to share the good news with her mother immediately!

"Mom!" As soon as she pushed open the door of the ward, Zhou Manman couldn't suppress her excitement and excitement, and when she saw that the people in the hospital bed next door were looking at her sideways, she quickly covered her mouth, secretly stuck out her tongue, and walked quickly towards the innermost hospital bed.

"Manman, you're here, I'm feeling better, let's go through the discharge procedures." Before Zhou Manman could speak, her mother took her hand and eagerly urged her to pack up her things and be discharged from the hospital.

"Mom, we don't have to be discharged! I've raised money for my treatment! Zhou Manman lowered his voice, his tone full of happiness.

"What? Where did you get all this money? The mother looked skeptical, this child, could it be that he borrowed a loan shark for himself, right?

"Don't worry, Mom, I've earned it." Zhou Manman saw his mother's doubts, and quickly explained, "I participated in a comic contest and won the first prize, and the company promised me an advance of 10,000 yuan in advance!" ”

Zhou Manman opened the backpack in his arms, and a thick pile of cash lay quietly in the innermost part of the backpack.

"Wandering!" Mom gently stroked her cheeks, her eyes overflowing with crystal clear tears, "Good boy, hard work pays off, Mom knows that you will definitely succeed!" ”

Holding her hand also unconsciously increased a little harder, originally, you don't have to go through these ups and downs, you can enjoy a beautiful life like a fairy tale, and my mother's heart is sour.

"We'll save the money and get you an electronic sketchpad." Mom gently closed the open backpack and gently pushed Zhou Manman with both hands, "I feel much better, let's get out of the hospital." Urging her to hurry up and go through the discharge procedures.

"Mom!" Zhou Manman dodged his mother's hands, "Mom, I signed a contract with the company, and I will soon be a professional cartoonist, don't worry about it after graduation, our lives will slowly get better, you must have a good body, I can rest assured!" ”

After speaking, she gently smoothed the broken hair on her mother's forehead to the back of her ears, her mother is no longer as young as she was when she was a child, more than ten years of hard work, as if there is an invisible paintbrush, painted heavy lines on her mother's face, not as beautiful as in the past.

"I'll go through the hospitalization procedures, you can rest." With that, she picked up her backpack and walked out.

Behind him, there was a sigh from the mother's voice.

"Madam, you need to pay the hospitalization deposit and treatment fee, and you need to deposit 10,000 yuan in advance."

In the window was the gentle voice of the nurse, Zhou Manman sounded a little helpless, although he got the bonus, but he still felt a little unable to make ends meet, and it was the king to make money quickly, life could not stop for a moment, and he did not give her a chance to breathe.

Just as she was stuffing a stack of miscellaneous bills into her backpack in her hand, she caught a glimpse of Coach Wang's hurried back flashing, Zhou Manman hurriedly tidied up the backpack, hurriedly threw it on his shoulder, and tiptoed two steps to chase after it.

The person in front stopped in front of a consultation room, looked back and forth, and flashed in.

Zhou Manman stopped catching up, "Neurosurgery? She stared at the sign at the door and muttered to herself, Bai Chuan Canghe really hurt her brain.

Zhou Manman quietly hid outside the door, wanting to seize every opportunity to know the current situation of Baichuan Canghe.

"Doctor, how's Shirakawa's condition?" As soon as Coach Wang walked in, he hurriedly asked eagerly before he had time to sit down, he was in a hurry in the past two days, and since that day, Baichuan Canghe's mental state has not been good, and he has been treated negatively, and the whole person is about to collapse.

"Yesterday we had a consultation with the orthopedic department, and the recovery of Shirakawa's ligament is not very good, and this time it is accompanied by a slight concussion, which needs to be observed again."

Zhou Manman heard the doctor in the room sigh, she couldn't see the doctor's expression, just listening to the doctor's tone, she already felt that Bai Chuan was seriously ill at the moment.

"Then ......," Coach Wang's tone was full of concern, "what will be the impact on his future?" "Coach Wang's heart is churning at the moment, and he regrets it too much, he shouldn't have listened to that kid in the first place, what kind of painkiller injections!

"The head injury caused an imbalance in balance, which can bring intermittent dizziness, so he has been vomiting a lot lately, so he must not be stimulated by anything during this time, and he should recuperate."

The doctor was a little dissatisfied in his tone, Bai Chuan Canghe was already in a very bad situation now, what blood sample test report did these people have to show him to stimulate him, when he rushed into the ward that day, Bai Chuan Canghe was lying on the ground and vomiting, and his body was covered with filthy vomit, and his whole person was also twitching and trembling.

Dizziness, vomiting, loss of balance......

These words are all too familiar to Zhou Manman, and on the day of Bai Chuan Canghe's injury, she was extremely afraid that this genius figure skater would have the same experience as her.

Sure enough, it didn't escape......

"Ma'am, who are you looking for?"

Just as Zhou Manman was in a state of endless worry, she was interrupted by a sound of inquiry, and the people in the room stopped communicating when they heard the noise outside.

"Ah, I...... I...... It's passing by, yes, passing by, just now...... I felt a little uncomfortable just now, so I stopped. Zhou Manman's incoherent explanation, without waiting for the nurse to react, ran away.

The nurse was holding a medical tray in her hand, which was full of all kinds of bottles and cans of medicines, and the expression on her face was full of suspicion, she clearly saw the girl, standing at the door and stopping for a long time.

"Who is it?" The doctor walked out of the examination room on his long legs, his unwrinkled white coat swaying between his legs.

"Oh, a patient." The nurse replied.

Coach Wang poked his head out and looked at the background of the distance, feeling that this back seemed to be seen from somewhere, but he couldn't tell.

Zhou Manman, who hurriedly ran back to the ward, gasped for breath, her mother was already asleep at this time, she stroked her chest while panting unevenly, and the hasty escape made her breathless, and she was almost discovered, Zhou Manman thought.

Listening to the doctor's description, Bai Chuan Canghe's condition is really bad, that kind of pain, Zhou Manman knows better than anyone else, she really can't imagine that in such a bad physical situation, he has to suffer a mental double blow, how will he survive the long night of being questioned and slandered......

I'm going to do something for him...... Zhou Manman thought to himself.

Even if a person is soft-spoken, even if it can illuminate a small corner of his life.
