Gao Jialin was shocked, and hurriedly looked at Liu Qiaozhen, the girl was drunk and hazy, and she was holding a cup to pour into her mouth.

Gao Jialin hurriedly grabbed her hand, didn't let Liu Qiaozhen continue to drink, and asked eagerly: "Qiaozhen, how much have you drunk?" ”

"Hee-hee! Just a little, a few glasses! Liu Qiaozhen said to Gao Jialin with a smile, and stretched out his hand to gesture, "Brother Jialin, this is juice and not wine, sweet and delicious!" ”

Gogarin couldn't cry or laugh, this stupid girl was obviously drunk. Liu Qiaozhen doesn't drink much on weekdays, she doesn't like the choking taste of liquor, how could she think that she drank wine, so energetic, she actually drunk herself!

"Oops! Blame me, blame me! Seeing this, Editor Qian immediately understood the cause and effect, "It's all because I didn't warn me in advance!" Your lover has never drunk this sweet wine, which is sweet, like juice, and actually not low in strength. It's easy to get drunk! Xiao Wang, you don't persuade you next to me! ”

Editor Xiao Wang looked innocent, so he had to be trained silently, muttering in his heart: "How do I know about this stubble, I thought she was very good at drinking!" ”

Gao Jialin hurriedly comforted, "Teacher Qian, don't say that, it's not Editor Wang's fault, and it has nothing to do with you." I also know the degree of the wine, so I forgot to remind her. My lover is still young, and it is the first time he has gone out with me, which is relatively simple, haha! It's okay, we Northwest people are born with a lot of alcohol! In this case, we have only drunk 30% of the state, and we have to drink it to be good! Hehe, I'll help her go back to rest and sober up! ”

Fortunately, Liu Qiaozhen is very good when she is drunk, except for loving to talk and laugh, there is nothing wrong with it, Gao Jialin only needs a little support.

Fortunately, the meal is almost finished, although the "Harry Potter" novel has not been discussed yet, but it can be put until tomorrow to go to the magazine to say. In this case, there is only goodbye to each other.

Gao Jialin supported Liu Qiaozhen, said goodbye to Editor-in-Chief Qian and Editor-in-Chief Wang, and politely refused Editor Wang's request to help send him to the guest house, and the two left.

Editor-in-chief Qian saw that Liu Qiaozhen was in a good state, so he didn't insist, made an appointment for tomorrow, and waved goodbye.

Editor-in-Chief Qian and Editor Xiao Wang sent Gao Jialin and his wife away, looking at their distant figures, Editor-in-Chief Qian couldn't help but say: "Xiao Wang, what do you think of Writer Gao?" ”

Editor Xiao Wang was a little puzzled by the leader's sudden question, and replied: "I used to think that Gao Writer should be a middle-aged man with a delicate mind and glasses, but I didn't expect that the real person was such a tall and sunny young man." However, he is indeed very knowledgeable, and he can pick up whatever he says, and he has a good and original point of view. I really can't imagine that there is such a perfect peer, compared to him, I am so shallow in my knowledge, I am so ashamed! ”

Editor-in-Chief Qian also nodded, and said with deep feeling: "Yes! When I started reading the Harry Potter novel, I thought it must have been written by a scholar from a big city, and then I was taken aback when I saw his bio! How can such a child in a remote rural area in the northwest know so much knowledge, could it be plagiarism? ”

"To tell you the truth, I was afraid that I was plagiarizing foreign children's works, so I specially translated some of them into English and sent them to friends in the foreign publishing industry, so that they could see if there were any similar works, but the result was naturally no. They are all very interested in this novel, clamoring for overseas publishing rights, and I will discuss this matter with Writer Gao when I go back. ”

"Later, I looked for other works by Gao Writer and read them, and I was convinced that this was really a gifted genius! My favorite poem he wrote, "Birds and Fish", have you read it? ”

Without waiting for Xiao Wang to answer, he recited it by himself.

"The farthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death, but when I stand in front of you, you don't know that I love you."

……

Xiao Wang also read along, and the two of them spoke in unison, both of them a little excited.

Editor Qian finally sighed: "The farthest distance in the world is the distance between fish and birds, one soars in the sky, and the other dives deep in the sea. The literary industry pays attention to hard work, and pays more attention to talent! We are all fish that can only flutter in the water, and Gogarin is the bird that soars into the sky, and we can only watch him soar through the sky from the sea! ”

Xiao Wang nodded again and again, although he had only been in contact with Gao Jialin for a short time, his admiration was already deep-rooted.

On the other side, Gao Jialin helped Liu Qiaozhen walk not far, and was blown by the cool breeze of autumn, and Liu Qiaozhen had slowly sobered up. Only then did she realize that she was actually drunk, and she still made such a joke when she met with a distinguished guest for the first time, Liu Qiaozhen was so ashamed that she couldn't find a crack in the ground and never came out again.

Gao Jialin didn't think so, but thought it was very interesting, and was still teasing Liu Qiaozhen, "Just now, a certain girl poured herself cup after cup, and she drank most of the bottle alone, and she was still bragging, and she drank a little bit of everything, is her alcohol good!" Hahaha! ”

"Nasty! Shut up, don't say it! Liu Qiaozhen was anxious and annoyed, so she went to cover Gao Jialin's mouth, and the two of them talked and laughed on the street.

Shanghai is Shanghai after all, they show their affection so openly, no passer-by thinks it's a big deal, but they all do their own thing, hurry away, at most look at it for a moment or two, this is still for the sake of handsome men and beautiful women. However, Liu Qiaozhen suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly stopped, covering her face and being embarrassed.

"Hehe, it's okay!" Gao Jialin pulled her into his arms, "This is Shanghai, not Gaojia Village, and there are no people full of feudal thoughts." You see, no one pays attention to us at all, be bold, be natural, you see that other couples are pulling and pulling, they are all the same. ”

Liu Qiaozhen put down her hand and looked around, and sure enough, no one paid attention to them. Looking at other couples, hugging and hugging is trivial, and there are many people who kiss in public, which is completely different from the northwest.

At this moment, the northwest is already a cold north wind, and the cold is pressing, so cold that people can't go out. Shanghai is still in autumn, and the road is full of people. Seeing that it was still early, less than eight o'clock, Gao Jialin proposed to go and see the night view of Shanghai.

The two walked all the way, along the bright road, looking at the colorful neon lights, and following the endless flow of people, they deeply experienced the prosperity of the country's first commercial city, and the northwest is completely two eras.

Even though it was getting late, the road was still brightly lit, just like daytime. Most of the shops are also open, there is everything to buy, clothes and jewelry are readily available, Gao Jialin couldn't help but go into the store to buy himself a pair of jeans, and Liu Qiaozhen bought a light green windbreaker.

Not to mention, Liu Qiaozhen's windbreaker is worn on her body, which is particularly suitable, and her whole temperament is raised all of a sudden, and she no longer looks like a rural woman in the eighties, a proper fashion female star!

Of course, this dress is not cheap, a windbreaker costs fifty yuan, and Liu Qiaozhen is so shocked that she has to put it down and leave. However, Gao Jialin insisted on buying it, took Liu Qiaozhen's hand and said, "Qiaozhen, you have been married to me for so long, and I have never bought you any good things." Now that we are not short of money, why not make our lives better. Wear this dress, no one will underestimate us when we go out, listen to me, buy it! ”

After Gao Jialin finished speaking, he went directly to the counter to pay the money, and Liu Qiaozhen had to accept the clothes, carefully wrap them, and put them in a bag. Gogarin asked her to change it now, but she insisted. Gogarin was also helpless, so he had to go with her.

The two walked all the way to Shanghai People's Square, which is the center of Shanghai at this time, a garden-style square integrating financial administration, culture, transportation and commerce, a cross-century Shanghai political and cultural center integrating culture, greening and beautification, and one of the top ten landscapes in Shanghai in the 80s.

In the center of the square, the People's Avenue runs across, from the intersection of Fuzhou Road in XZ Middle Road to Huangpi North Road, with a length of about 600 meters and a width of about 23 meters. The avenue is paved with granite, and 24 13-meter-high Huabiao-style lampposts are built on both sides, on which 96 palace lamps are installed. Spectacular.

The whole People's Square is semicircular, starting from XZ Middle Road in the east, Huangpi North Road in the west, Wusheng Road in the south, and Renmin Avenue in the north, with a width of 310 meters from north to south and a length of 550 meters from east to west, with a total area of 170,000 square meters.

It is also a public space and place for citizens to rest and communicate.

To the south of the square, a group of young men are running around under bright street lamps, competing for footballs. A large number of friends cheered for them, and they didn't mind the bleak autumn breeze at all. Further, round by circle, there are uncles who are playing chess, and here is like the arena of the chess arena, where masters from all walks of life gather to see the moves, and see the winners and losers on the chessboard. Those who can gain a firm foothold here are all chess masters with two brushes.

Of course, chatting, enjoying the shade, dancing, and practicing kung fu are also a bunch of groups, each with its own circle, each with its own territory, clearly distinguished, and does not interfere with each other.

There are many people, and there are naturally some small merchants and hawkers in the middle, and those who sell snacks sell small toys, one after another. There are even people who sell craft objects and porcelain antiques, as for the authenticity is difficult to say, these people also take advantage of the geographical convenience of the People's Square to find business opportunities.

Gao Jialin and Liu Qiaozhen strolled around the square, and soon Liu Qiaozhen had some messy snacks in her hands, and she also bought a few small toys, mechanical frogs and other things, the price was not expensive, but it was very strange for her, obviously rare in the northwest. These gadgets are bought for the children of relatives and friends.

The two of them were tired of shopping, so they slowly walked back. Although it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening, there were still many pedestrians on the road, and the lights were bright, so there was no need to worry about safety. If this was in Gaojia Village or even the county seat, it would have been dark a long time ago, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

Liu Qiaozhen followed Gao Jialin for a night walk, and finally understood what nightlife is. It's no wonder that people in the city like to sleep lazy, and the feeling is that they go out to play at night and sleep late!
