Chapter 143: Hand Control Is Like This (Ask for Subscription)
June of this year is particularly busy, Lin Lu's college entrance examination, her graduation, Lin Lu's grades, her regularization, Lin Lu's learning to drive, her writing ......
A lot of the parts that belonged to him were stuffed into my sister's heart, filling her up at once.
Busy days always pass quickly, unconsciously it has been June 24th, today is the day of Lin Lu's college entrance examination results, and it is also the day she submitted her book, after today, it will probably enter a relatively leisurely July.
Originally, Li Xing wanted to wait for Lin Lu's college entrance examination results to come out in the evening and then send the book together, but considering that it was already Friday today, and the editor would get off work in the evening, he submitted the 20,000-word manuscript to an editor's mailbox in Haitang in the morning.
This editor's name is Ah Meng, and he is also a veteran editor of Begonia, and he has brought out a lot of great god authors, and she brought the very popular pillow Xiaoyue last year.
It is estimated that Ah Meng couldn't have imagined that among the manuscripts received in the mailbox today, one of the manuscripts would be submitted to her by Xiao He, the new editor of Reading Point......
In fact, it is very common for editors to write books, but they are generally very low-key, especially if they write on their own websites, they use their partner's ID card or their parents' ID card to avoid suspicion.
But it doesn't matter if you go to other platforms to write, no one knows anyone anyway, and the company doesn't say no.
After turning positive yesterday, Li Xingruo began to sign a new book by herself, her nickname is Xiao He, and like the author, many editors will choose some delicious things as their nicknames.
Because she is a new editor and has no resources for old authors, Li Xingruo's mailbox has almost no submissions, and most of her day's work is to search for books in the backstage library and sign new books that she likes.
It looks simple, but in fact, the pressure is quite great, because the signing quota is fixed every month, and the recommendation in her hand is not high, and the performance appraisal is based on the results of the signed books.
After all, she has just turned positive, especially the author resources, and recommended resources, which always need to be accumulated slowly, Li Xingruo is very patient and not in a hurry, and after she brings out a group of authors with achievements, the reputation has risen, and there are more recommended resources in her hand, so naturally there will be many authors who will contribute to her mailbox.
Li Xingruo still attaches great importance to this job, although he is now writing a book, he will not resign easily.
After coming out of social work, she knew that it was not easy to make money, in this industry, she saw a lot of soaring authors, but there are also many short-lived authors, before her dream came true, she didn't dare to take the risk of writing full-time, after all, she still has a younger brother to raise.
I want to make money to buy him new clothes, I want to make money to buy him the best paint, I want to make money to buy him the best drawing paper, I want to make money to study abroad, I want to save money to buy him a wedding house, and I want him to find a wife to get married...... Phew! No marriage! My sister is so good to you, if you dare to marry another girl, my sister will cut off all your exclamation points!!
It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to make a lot of money, there is no capital, no means of production, fortunately, she can also write some articles, relying on content entrepreneurship can still try, realize the dream and make a lot of money at the same time, probably a very happy thing.
When he was at work, the new editor Li Xingruo signed other people's works in the library, and at the same time opened the mailbox from time to time to see if the works he submitted had passed the contract......
Now, as an editor and a new author, no one knows the mood of submission better than her.
A morning has passed, and the submitted email has not been replied to, and when I was eating with Lin Lu, my sister couldn't help but frown.
"What's wrong, what's wrong, who bullied my cute and beautiful Sister Xingruo?"
"You!"
"How dare I bully my sister."
"It's you, it's you."
Li Xingruo snorted, if it weren't for your stinky brother, my sister would be in such a hurry to make a lot of money.
"Okay, then I'll lean on my shoulder for Sister Xingruo as an apology."
"You know each other."
The sister and brother had already finished eating, and each pushed the plate in front of them forward, the shoulders in the middle were pressed together, and they adjusted their postures tacitly, Lin Lu relaxed his right shoulder, and his sister tilted her head and leaned lightly on his shoulder.
At first, the company's colleagues were still very curious, why did Xiao He's editor eat for so long at noon, and didn't go back to the company for a lunch break, and later knew that Xiao He's editor had an object, and everyone knew it.
The younger brother's shoulders are thick and warm, and the elder sister will never get tired of it for the rest of her life, her long hair like a waterfall falls down from his arms, she closed her eyes relaxedly, and breathed a soft sigh of relief, and her slightly irritable mood suddenly calmed down.
"I'll help Sister Xingruo squeeze her hands."
"Don't."
"Come on, come on, you've been typing on the keyboard for a morning, I'll help you pinch, and you'll have energy in the afternoon."
ββ¦β¦β
While he was still talking, his broad, thick right hand had already hung down under the table, and he scooped up her small hand and held it in the palm of his hand.
Although it is not the first time that they have played with each other in the name of pinching their hands, whenever the fingers of the siblings touch, between the slight friction, there will always be a numbing electric current, which goes straight to the brain and stirs the heartbeat.
Lin Lu gently touched her little hand with his thick big hand, at first his sister's fingers were still slightly stiff, but as his movements were gentle, her thoughts also began to wander, the fingers relaxed, and the whole little hand became softer.
"Sister Xingruo, your hands are so soft."
ββ¦β¦ How soft? β
"Isn't there a word, it's called Rouyi! Like cotton, like tofu! β
Lin Lu didn't lie to her, how could there be such soft little hands, although my sister is not fat, but the little hands feel plump to the touch, a pair of small hands are soft, white, and tender, not to mention how much you feel when you play, the five fingers are narrow and slender, the nails are also trimmed very neatly, no nail polish is applied, the nail cover is a smooth color, and there is a healthy crescent white.
Every time she plays with her hands, Lin Lu likes to pinch her fingers, because her fingers are also soft and tender, as cute as if pinching a small bean.
Occasionally, the hands of the sister and brother are entangled tightly, each other's palms will sweat, and Lin Lu's heartbeat will also speed up, I don't know if she feels it leaning on his shoulder, but Lin Lu can see that his sister's little ears hidden in her hair are slightly red, and her legs are tighter together.
As she quietly opened her slender and lovely fingers, Lin Lu sensibly embedded her fingers between her fingers, and the hands of the sister and brother slowly interlocked, slightly clenching the hands holding each other.
She tentatively twitched her hand, but unfortunately Lin Lu refused to let go, so my sister couldn't do anything about him, but it wasn't that my sister was not reserved, it was her younger brother who had been spoiled by her who had to hold her sister's hand, they were all nineteen-year-old boys, and they were so clingy to their sister, what could my sister do......
Although the meal is gradually passing, there are still many diners walking around on the second floor of the restaurant, and the unclean siblings hide each other's finger-locked hands under the table.
The hearts of the two seemed to be connected by holding hands, and even the voices of the two became quiet.
"What should I do......" she said with some distress.
"Huh?" Lin Lu gently squeezed her hand.
"I haven't submitted it yet, isn't this book good......"
"Don't worry, my big writer sister, aren't you also an editor yourself, you're usually so busy with work, Ah Meng probably hasn't seen your manuscript yet."
Because of the triggering of the keyword 'great writer', the sister who was leaning on his shoulder twisted a little shyly.
After all, A Meng is a well-known editor in the industry, and the manuscripts in the mailbox must be overwhelming, and it has only been half a day since the submission, and it is normal that there is no reply, but after all, it is a book that she has high hopes for, and her mood will inevitably be more anxious, although she herself knows this truth, but after her brother comforted her, her mood immediately relaxed a lot.
"Show Sister Xingruo a good thing!"
Seeing that my sister was not in a good mood, my younger brother always had a lot of ways to make her happy.
Sure enough, Li Xingruo was attracted by his words, lifted his little head melon from his shoulder, and said curiously: "What ......?"
The hands between the sister and brother were still holding each other, Lin Lu walked around with his left hand, and awkwardly took out the mobile phone from the right pocket, even if it was very troublesome, but he was reluctant to let go of his sister's hand.
After he took out his phone, his sister also leaned over to look at the screen curiously by leaning over his shoulder.
Lin Lu opened the album and showed her a picture, which was the cover he specially painted for her.
It's different from the cover that someone is looking for on the Internet.,This is hand-painted by Lin Lu himself.,There are images of the male and female protagonists on the picture.,The scene is two people riding a sky blue tandem bicycle.,There is also a bouquet of peony flowers on the basket.,The female owner is in front.γThe male owner is in the back.,Big Moyo is the weather in May.,The female owner and the male owner who ride together under the blue sky and white clouds are full of happy smiles and indulge in the sea of peony flowersγ
The title of the book is "Investment Banking: Turning a Positive Lover"; Author's name: June Xiaohe; The font blends harmoniously with the original painting, and even on the book cover, Lin Lu did not forget to add the plum blossom print of his little fat cat.
Probably this is the romance brought by having a younger brother who can draw, Li Xingruo's expression was pleasantly surprised, but at first sight, he fell in love with this cover.
Newcomer writers are like this, don't talk about anything else, first get a cover you like, and then say, with the text on the book cover, it will suddenly become a book, and the motivation for writing will be greatly improved.
Now seeing this exquisite cover drawn by Lin Lu himself, Li Xingruo's younger brother was instantly full of energy, and he couldn't wait to run back to the office immediately and open the computer code with 100,000 words.
"How is it, does Sister Xingruo like it?"
"I like it!"
My sister, who has always been hard-mouthed, will not be hard-mouthed this time, because she really likes this cover too much, and when she used to write her own books, she either spent five yuan to find someone to make a cover, or she had a Meitu App P one, where did she ever have this kind of treatment of having a brother with superb painting skills to customize the book cover for her personally.
Maybe it's because my sister and brother are of the same heart, the taste conveyed in his book cover happens to be her favorite, and she can't find fault at all.
"I said Lin Lu, you can open a small cover workshop! This level of cover costs at least 1,000 yuan to customize! Original hand-drawn! When the time comes, it will be dedicated to slaughtering the local tyrant author! β
"Hmph, Sister Xingruo, don't underestimate your stinky brother, I've been transferred to the poster design team today."
"What? You're not in the packaging design team, are you? β
"Hmm, I feel like I've learned almost, and I've made several big lists."
Although Li Xingruo was not in his company, he was also shocked by Lin Lu's growth rate, this high school graduate was only two weeks old, and he squeezed out the packaging design team and began to change groups to study? ! Shouldn't he really want to catch up with his sister and get married on the same day as his sister?!
"You, that little Chen sister of yours was squeezed dry by you?"
"What, my little Sister Chen, I only have Sister Xingruo! But Sister Xiao Chen really has nothing to teach me, and now it's Brother Liu from the poster design team who is taking me. β
Hearing that Lin Lu's master had changed to a man, Li Xingruo was relieved, otherwise such an excellent younger brother would really guarantee that there would be a shameless old sister who would do something like an old cow eating tender grass.
"By the way, how could Sister Xingruo take the author's name of June Xiaohe?" Lin Lu said curiously.
"Because it's June now, my editor's name is Xiao He, so it's called June Xiao He."
Li Xingruo looked at the cover and couldn't put it down, if she couldn't submit it, she would send the book directly, and then change the cover, and when the book was finished, she would change the vest again, if the second book was sent in July, then she would be called July Xiaohe, if she pounced again, she would be called August Xiaohe, in short, Xiaohe would never be defeated!!
"Don't worry, Sister Xingruo, I'm serious, I think your writing is really good."
"Hey......
The old sister smiled shyly, returned the phone to him, and leaned on his shoulder like a kitten, the recognition and encouragement of the younger brother were better than any good medicine.
"Sister Xingruo doesn't have anything else to do tonight, right?"
"What do you want to do......"
"If Sister Xingruo comes with me to my mother's side tonight, I will have results at eight o'clock tonight."
Yes, Li Xingruo knew that he would get his results at eight o'clock tonight, but she forgot that he was going to Aunt Zou's side, and she still wanted to accompany him and wait for the results to come out.
"I, I'm not going, you check the results then, just tell me, I'm at home ...... code"
"It's really fake, Sister Xingruo can code words with peace of mind?"
ββ¦β¦β
Probably not.
"Let's go, let's go back with me, it's not that I don't know my mother and Uncle Wen, Yanyan Momo is looking forward to you, Sister Xingruo doesn't want to look at the results with me? You taught me! β
Lin Lu whispered softly in her ear, while pinching her little hand and gently rubbing her shoulder.
"Really, really can't do anything about you!"
"I knew that Sister Xingruo cared about my grades very much."
"My sister cares if I teach well!"
"It's all the same, it's the same."
My sister's tense body softened again, she looked down at Lin Lu's big hand, and her two small hands played with his big hand in turn, and asked him casually:
"So, will you come back tonight?"
"I'm not going back, let's stay over there for one night."
"Oh, I'll go back myself."
ββ¦β¦ What does Sister Xingruo think, you are not afraid of getting lost for such a long way, I am still afraid that you will get lost! β
"Otherwise, I'll still live there with you?"
"There are so many rooms!"
"I don't want to, I'm so embarrassed to ......"
"Stay, stay, what are you afraid of with me."
ββ¦β¦β
"Okay? Sister Xingruo? Well? β
ββ¦β¦ Okay, okay, oops, I'm annoying you. β
Every time like this, Li Xingruo can't help but reflect on her life, since when did she become such a sister who is full of only her younger brother, she has always been able to unceremoniously refuse the unreasonable demands of others, why is there nothing she can do about this younger brother......
Probably from that day he asked for his help as a tutor, and if he refused that time, what would be happening now?
Although she couldn't do anything about this stinky brother, she was glad that she didn't refuse at that time.
In the afternoon with Lin Lu, she temporarily forgot the melancholy mood after the submission, but she didn't expect that it was the most relaxing time, and the prompt tone of the mobile phone mailbox in her pocket sounded smoothly.
Li Xingruo sat up straight, just like him just now, her middle hand was still holding him, and she used her right hand to clumsily go around to the left to pick up the phone in her pocket.
[Unread Email]
[A Meng: Thank you for contributing, the manuscript has been received, it meets the signing criteria, please add my QQ, note the title of the book, the author's name, and set the time for ^_^ sending the book]
It's hard to describe the feeling when she saw the email reply, although she is also an editor who has the power of life and death, but after her submission was approved, Li Xingruo was still so excited that her face was slightly red, after all, this was her first internal submission! Sure enough, the undercover agent during this period of time was not in vain!
"It's over! I signed the contract of Ah Meng, who is known as the saddest draft! β
Li Xingruo excitedly slapped the stinky brother next to him, and the mobile phone screen was about to hit him in the face, so he quickly took a look at his amazing sister.
"Yes, I'll just say that Sister Xingruo's book is definitely fine."
"You have a vision~!"
"Did you say this to me, or did you say it to Editor Meng?"
"It must be said to you, the eyes of the big editor are still questioning."
"Sister Xingruo shouldn't really want to become a great writer! Big writer June Xiaohe~! β
Lin Lu couldn't help but tease her again, her sister really couldn't help but praise, shy, shy and a little annoyed, it was really outrageously cute.
Now that the manuscript has been passed, Li Xingruo is relieved, and he didn't rush to add Ah Meng's QQ, saving him precious time to rely on his younger brother.
She leaned back on Lin Lu's shoulder, and Lin Lu unceremoniously took a hand from her arms and came over to play with it.
Because of her good mood, occasionally Lin Lu played a little too much, and she snorted at most and let him play with her sister's little hands.
It's fine when she closes her eyes, but she can't help but secretly open them, lowering her eyes, and watching her brother's two big hands wrap around her little hands, gently caressing, going in and out between each other's fingers, which makes her feel both shy and liking, and a certain sense of irritation.
"YouβDo you like hands very much......
"I like Sister Xingruo's hand."
"That'...... If you only like my hand, my sister will let you kiss it. β
When these words were spoken, Lin Lu could feel his sister's heart beating violently like him at the moment, and he couldn't help but turn his head sideways to look at her face, but she leaned on his shoulder, her long hair like a waterfall hung down, covering the side face, and he couldn't see her expression clearly, but the tender little ears were a little red.
"In this life, I only like Sister Xingruo's hands."
Lin Lu smiled understandingly, grabbed her narrow and slender four fingers, and exposed the back of her white and smooth hand.
The next second, he raised her little hand, bowed her head slightly, and kissed the back of his sister's hand.
The warm wetness spread on the back of her white and tender hands, and this ambiguous and charming experience made her body lose strength quickly.
Lin Lu greedily tasted the taste of his sister.
Li Xingruo blushed and didn't dare to look at him, this was to let his eyes escape the same loud heartbeat as his heart......
The music in the restaurant sounded, it was Adrina at the water's edge.
