Song Qingyue was forced to look up at him, her voice trembling a little: "Didn't you say yes at the beginning?" 300,000 a month, the end time I decide, do you want to break the contract? ”

"Breaking the contract? What about? Have we signed the contract? The man exerted himself slightly, and Song Qingyue snorted, "If you want to finish, you can give me another sum of money, and we can get together and disperse." ”

"You're dreaming! Ah......h

"Let it go!" Chen Xifan suddenly spoke up, and his tone was extremely cold.

The man looked stunned, "Don't be nosy." ”

Chen Xifan didn't want to, just took out his mobile phone and dialed 110, the phone was quickly connected, and he said with a normal expression: "The parking lot near Tunyuan Road, huh...... Ocean Building......"

When the other party saw that he was really coming, he let go.

As soon as he let go, Song Qingyue immediately ran to Qi Xia and Chen Xifan, and the man took a sip and said unwillingly: "Miss Song, we will meet again." ”

After the person left, Song Qingyue's eyes were full of surprise, and she wiped her tears: "Ah Fan, thank you......"

"No, you don't." Chen Xifan interrupted her patiently, "I didn't know it was you before I came. ”

The implication is that tonight's event, no matter who it is, he will do it. Chen Xifan said again: "It was Qi Xia who first sensed the danger, and the person you should thank the most is her." ”

Song Qingyue turned her head and saw Qi Xia's face stiffen, looked away, and said, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome." Qi Xia didn't know that the person who quarreled was Song Qingyue.

When the danger was far away, Song Qingyue explained: "Actually, I have nothing to do with that man, I just ......."

Chen Xifan has no interest in other people's private affairs, "It has nothing to do with us." After speaking, he looked at Qi Xia and said, "Let's go, go back." ”

"yes, okay."

Although Qi Xia didn't like Song Qingyue, he didn't want anything to happen to her, after all, there was a huge disparity in strength between men and women, and if that man did it just now, Song Qingyue would definitely suffer.

But Qi Xia is not a saint, many years ago Song Qingyue picked up her mobile phone and peeked at her privacy, she will not forget, nor will she forgive.

This stubble was quickly revealed, and on the way back, Qi Xia's mood was not greatly affected, but he muttered dissatisfiedly, "I said that I invited you today, why are you like this, I really don't want to go." ”

Chen Xifan started the car, drove out of the parking lot and into the main road, he drove the car, not affected by the incident just now, and said casually: "Do you want to go?" That...... It's okay to make it up to me. ”

Qi Xia was stunned, "How to compensate?" ”

"Mr. Qi, can you satisfy my curiosity?"

"What curiosity?"

Chen Xifan glanced at her and stepped on the accelerator to speed up, "Your crush." ”

Qi Xia's brain buzzed and refused to speak.

Seeing that she was so sensitive, Chen Xifan wanted to laugh, "It's inconvenient, forget it, I'll tease you." ”

"Actually...... Actually, there is nothing inconvenient. Maybe because of the drink, Qi Xia's head was a little dizzy, and his defensive heart was not so heavy, "What do you want to know?" ”

"What kind of man is he?"

Qi Xia looked at the glittering scenery outside the window, turned his head to look at him, turned his head away, and secretly curled the corners of his lips: "He...... Belch...... He is very handsome, his grades are good, and he is very good in everything anyway, and in my eyes, he is a perfect existence. ”

Perfect presence ?

That's a very high rating.

Chen Xifan sneered, "Then your filter is quite thick." ”

"Where's the filter?" Qi Xia retorted dissatisfiedly.

Chen Xifan explained: "There is no perfect person without gold and barefoot, and there is no perfect person in this world. ”

Qi Xia pursed his lips and yawned: "Anyway...... He was just very good, at that time, I was very inferior, he was so far away from me, in order to get close to him, I did a lot of stupid things, such as using Q......"

It is easy to get sleepy after drinking, her voice is getting quieter and quieter, her eyelids are so sleepy that she fights, Chen Xifan didn't hear the next words clearly, because Qi Xia's head was crooked, and she was already asleep.

Seeing that she had fallen asleep, Chen Xifan turned up the temperature of the air conditioner and put a coat on her while waiting for the red light.

The road was quiet, and only Qi Xia's quiet and even breathing was heard in the car.

When he arrived at the Banchunli community, Qi Xia had not woken up, so Chen Xifan found a parking space and turned off the lights.

In the first month, the entrance of the community is full of red lanterns, and in the red light, the sound of neighbors talking and children playing faintly comes from the time with her.

Chen Xifan spoke up: "Qi Xia? ”

No one answered him.

To tell the truth, there were quite a few boys in their class who were handsome and had good grades.

The invisible enemy was the most terrifying, and Chen Xifan was inexplicably angry, and for the first time in his life, he fell into deep self-doubt.

Anyway, Qi Xia couldn't see it, he got closer to see her sleeping appearance, didn't hold back, reached out and rubbed her hair.

He said lazily: "Classmate Qi Xia, my appearance and achievements are okay, in your eyes, is it comparable to that crush?" ”

"Think about it, how about a different person?"

*

The next day was the weekend, this night Qi Xia slept very deeply, last night she didn't drink much, she woke up from a sleep in Chen Xifan's car, and went upstairs without taking a shower and lay down on the bed directly.

At this time, Qi Xia felt that her body was smelly, she took a hot bath, dried her hair, sat on the sofa and looked at her phone.

There is an unread message from Li Mi on WeChat: [Xia Xia, tell you a good news, at yesterday's trial reading, your article "Birds and Fish" was very popular, do you have any intention of signing a contract to publish? The price can be negotiated. 】

Qi Xia was quite unexpected, [Really? That's what I wrote in high school. 】

Li Mi: [I suspect you're in Versailles!] 】

Li Mi: [You can write such a great story in high school, you should change your career to become a writer.] 】

Qi Xia said: [No, I really like to be a reporter. 】

Li Mi returned to business: [Seriously, do you want to sign a contract for publication? ] Our magazine is mainly engaged in overseas and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and the editor-in-chief's idea is to first test the waters in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan in traditional Chinese, and then publish an overseas edition if the effect is good. 】

Li Mi: [The publication price is about 80,000 yuan, and we can talk about it again, mainly our editor-in-chief likes this story.] 】

Eighty thousand?

Isn't this just a matter of money falling from the sky? Who will have trouble with money.

Qi Xia thought for a while, [Is the name of the published book "Birds and Fish"? 】

Li Mi: [No, there is a high probability that the name will be changed, and the editor-in-chief thinks that this name is too simple and unattractive. 】

Maybe Qi Xiaxin is bigger, she really doesn't think that eight years have passed, and Chen Xifan can still remember the content of the story. Moreover, the name has been changed and published in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and overseas, and the probability of Chen Xifan seeing it is very small.

The most important thing is that she really can't let go of the 80,000 yuan.

Qi Xia: [You can sign a contract. 】

Li Mi sent a string of celebratory emojis, [That's the best, when are you free, come to the publishing house, let's talk about the price and sign the contract. 】

Li Mi: [If there is no problem, I will report to the editor-in-chief.] Next week, investors will come to inspect the work, and all the books signed this year will be given to the big bosses. 】

Qi Xia was curious and asked more: "Who is the investor of your publishing house?" Is it better than the draft? 】

Li Mi: [It's a big guy in the National Writers Association, it's awesome! ] Don't worry, she has a very good temper and won't kill the manuscript casually. 】

Qi Xia replied: [OK. 】

Chapter 46

After chatting with Li Mi on WeChat, and roughly determining the signing intention of "Birds and Fish", on Wednesday morning, Qi Xia took leave to go to the publishing house.

Li Mi's publishing house is called "Citrus Star Culture", located in a creative park in the East Sixth Ring Road, where the buildings are all independent white buildings, one company and one company.

The park is strictly managed, and when she arrived at the gate, Qi Xia sent a WeChat message to Li Mi, and soon, Li Mi appeared.

Li Mi is almost 40 years old this year, unmarried and childless, and her attitude is very young.

She led Qi Xia to the company and introduced all the way: "There are many film and television studios here, and you can often see stars, and there are little girls who chase stars who are squatting nearby, for safety reasons, and people who do not have access cards are not allowed to enter by security guards." ”

Qi Xia observed around: "The office environment is very good. ”

"It's not bad, after all, in the cultural industry, everyone is more artistic." When she arrived at the company to register as a visitor, Li Mi lowered her voice and said, "By the way, our investor is also here today, and I won't be able to see her later." ”

"What's her name?"

"Lin Xuezhen."

Qi Xia nodded thoughtfully, "I have the impression that she seems to have been a judge in an essay competition, and I have seen this name in the newspaper."

After that, Qi Xia entered the conference room and chatted with an editor and in-house counsel of the publishing house about contract-related matters. Traditional Chinese publishing generally adopts the form of buying out copyrights, back and forth several exchanges, and the final price is 82,000, and the two sides happily sign the contract.

Qi Xia and the editor in charge of publishing added WeChat, and the other party reminded her: "Reporter Qi, when you go back, you want to send me a pen name, and then send me a passport photo, the publication name of this book is tentatively set as "Ocean Travel", and it may be changed later, if there are any questions, we can communicate at any time?" ”

"Okay, no problem."

Coming out of the conference room, I happened to bump into Lin Xuezhen, the investor of the publishing house.

Lin Xuezhen has a bookish air between her eyebrows, she wears a Chinese printing suit, and an emerald brooch pinned to her left chest, and is accompanied by the editor-in-chief to inspect the daily work of the publishing house.

When the two sides met, there was nothing to do with Qi Xia, she turned sideways slightly, but unexpectedly, the editor-in-chief suddenly pointed at her and said, "This is the author of "Ocean Travel". ”

Hearing this, Lin Xuezhen paused, looked back at her and smiled: "Is this the girl?" The story is well written. ”

Qi Xia was flattered and smiled back: "You have won the prize." ”

"I've only read the beginning of the story of Sita and Miu traveling around the world, it's very interesting, I heard that it was your work in high school?"

"Yes."

"What a talented kid." Lin Xuezhen nodded with satisfaction, "She looks beautiful too, and I hope I will have the opportunity to cooperate more in the future." ”

"Definitely."

For some reason, Qi Xia always felt that Lin Xuezhen's eyebrows and eyes were a bit similar to someone, but she couldn't remember who she looked like.

was praised for some reason, and Qi Xia was very good in the morning. The signing of the publication came to an end, and Qi Xia took the subway back to work at the magazine.

This week's work is not too busy, mainly to prepare the outline of the interview with Yang Fu, back to the workstation to turn on the computer, Qi Xia thought of one thing, February 14 Friday, is Chen Xifan's birthday.

Since it's a birthday, it's a difficult question about what to give as a gift.

When it comes to giving gifts to boys, Qi Xia's experience is equal to none . She searched the Internet, electronics, clothes, shoes and hats...... It doesn't seem to fit.
