Wang Zixu was sitting on the hospital bed, and the sky outside the window changed from blue to deep purple. "Insects" is also gradually coming to an end.

"...They teased each other tenderly with their tails, and then walked forward. The male scorpion used each pair of pincers to firmly grasp the corresponding fingers of the female scorpion, and clamped them tightly. Unless she loosened the pincers, the female scorpion would

Unable to break free. The female scorpion became a prisoner, and the seducer put finger cuffs on it..."

It was so pitiful that after seeing how Scorpions fell in love, he felt deeply inferior. He could actually be depressed for an entire hour because of a name that caught him off guard. He was not free and easy as a Scorpion.

He picked up his phone and replied in Ning Chunyan’s chat box:

"I don't know."

Generally speaking, Wang Zixu is a very honest person. Or he thinks he is very honest. Every word he says is the truth that he sincerely believes at the moment.

He said he didn't know Chen Qingluo, but he wasn't lying. He just didn't tell the whole truth. If he were more honest, he would tell Ning Chunyan: "I once knew Chen Qingluo."

The Chen Qingluo that Wang Zixu once knew always wore a ponytail. When he was angry, he would deliberately shake his head and raise the ends of his hair into his face; he could ask for directions in fluent English, and he would unknowingly turn off his sportswear.

During basketball games, he would sit under the shade of a tree and help him count rebounds with his cheeks propped up.

The Chen Qingluo that Wang Zixu met later had a completely different image.

She had a cold and arrogant face in "Face to Face", showing an expression as if she had been betrayed by the whole world; she wore a backless dress in the magazine, revealing her flawless back; she was hidden on the title page behind the book cover, looming in the photo

, the fairy spirit is fluttering, making people have endless reveries.

This Chen Qingluo is that Chen Qingluo. But this Chen Qingluo is not like that Chen Qingluo. When he sees that Chen Qingluo, he always tries to combine the two images, but they are like broken porcelain that has been separated for too long and cannot be put together.

It was then that he thought in frustration: Maybe he had never known Chen Qingluo.

Chen Qingluo is destined to be a person in another world, and may never see her again in this life. Compared with distinguishing between "knowing" and "having known before," Wang Zixu is more concerned about some practical issues.

Wang Zixu sent a message to Ning Chunyan: "I've finished reading "Insects"."

Ning Chunyan raised his head and glanced at the clock, then lay back on the yoga mat and texted him back: "It looks so fast."

Wang Zixu said: "There are too many books to read, so I have to hurry. Apart from this, do you have any works at home by domestic writers with particularly distinctive language?"

Ning Chunyan said: "The language of my family's works is very stylish."

Wang Zixu said: "Then if you come here tomorrow, pick out a few books that are quite different from my writing style. I always feel that I still lack a little extraneous knowledge."

After Ning Chunyan finished reading, he straightened up and replied: "Who said I would come over tomorrow!"

"Ah? Then why don't you take back "Insects"?"

"No, no, no!"

"It's 79 yuan."

"Don't be so offensive. I'm just giving you a book today. It doesn't mean I'll come tomorrow!"

Wang Zixu didn't reply. Ning Chunyan hummed proudly.

I guess he realized his mistake, and the Xihe Literary Association didn’t even dare to instruct me to send books! Why is Wang Zixu so shameless!

But after a while, when Wang Zixu didn't reply to her, she began to feel a little pitiful for him. Ning Chunyan cut out words on her phone:

"Forget it, forget it, I just have to go to the editorial department tomorrow to supervise the review. I will bring it to you when I pass by. You can read whichever book you bring, and you are not allowed to choose!"

The prince replied in seconds: "Thank you, you are such a good person."

"..."

Ning Chunyan suspected that he had no guilt at all. He was just using himself as a tool to deliver books.

But she had already agreed, so she had no choice but to fulfill her promise. She got up and went back to her room. Chen Qingluo was staring at the computer in a daze.

She walked around Chen Qingluo, selecting books from the bookcase, and finally aroused his dissatisfaction: "Don't be like a fly."

Ning Chunyan was furious: "You are like a fly! You are sitting in someone else's bedroom openly, what are you saying to the owner of someone else's house!"

"What are you doing?"

Ning Chunyan looked up at the bookcase: "Then my brother asked me to bring him a book to read."

"Is that buddy of yours the one you went to the hospital to see today? That's the one...what's his name?"

"Wang Zixu."

"Oh." Chen Qingluo said expressionlessly, "You are quite considerate."

Ning Chunyan put her hands on her hips and said, "That's right. My main purpose is to be righteous."

After saying that, she lowered her head to look for the book again: "He said he wanted one whose writing style is quite different from his. By the way, what kind of writing style does he have?"

"This one."

Chen Qingluo stood up, picked out a copy of "White Deer Plain" from the bookshelf, and handed it to Ning Chunyan.

Ning Chunyan frowned: "It's impossible that he hasn't read this book, right?"

"This book is very different from his writing style." Chen Qingluo played with her hair on her temples nonchalantly.

"Don't you know him?"

"Sorry," Chen Qingluo pointed to the computer, "I read the new manuscript he sent you again."

Ning Chunyan asked: "How was the writing?"

"It's okay."

Ning Chunyan looked suspiciously. She felt that Chen Qingluo's expression was a bit arrogant. Chen Qingluo looked down on everyone equally, and she never said others were okay.

If she says that someone else is okay, then the other person's real level is often many times higher than "okay".

"How good is it?"

"He's special."

Ning Chunyan looked at her. She felt that Chen Qingluo's expression was particularly serious when she said this.

"Are you saying that Wang Zixu is special, or that Wang Zixu's works are special?" Ning Chunyan asked.

"See for yourself."

"Look. I'll go see what's special about him tomorrow. How about you come with me to see him tomorrow?"

Chen Qingluo stuffed "White Deer Plain" into Ning Chunyan's arms: "Take the book with you. Don't bother me."

…

Ning Chunyan threw "White Deer Plain" onto Wang Zixu's small table.

"Someone said that this book's writing style is very different from yours. So I brought it. In addition, I also brought Wang Shuo's "The Ferocious Animals", which is also very different from your writing style."

"Thanks."

As soon as he got "White Deer Plain", Wang Zixu lowered his head and buried himself in the book. He was like a diver diving into a swimming pool.

He didn't know that the warmth of Chen Qingluo's fingers had been left on the place he pinched with his fingers.

"Have you really never seen "White Deer Plain"?" Ning Chunyan stared at him in surprise.

What surprised her was: That was "White Deer Plain". How could it be possible that Wang Zixu hadn't seen it?

But Wang Zixu really hadn't seen it. He was also a little embarrassed.

"No. There are too many books and I don't have time to read them. I admit that my reading is a bit biased."

Ning Chunyan thought of the "name of dish" that he became famous for, and said, "You also have blind spots."

Wang Zixu said bluntly: "Yes. So I am working hard to make up for it now, but there are too many books and I can't finish it."

He sighed, like a fisherman seeing the ocean for the first time and sighing. There is no limit to the sea of ​​learning, and the more books you read, the more you read.

Ning Chunyan put her hands behind her back: "By the way, after I received your manuscript "A Safe Road Ahead", I couldn't help myself, so I typed it out and read it."

"How about it?"

A smile appeared on Ning Chunyan's lips: "I am a judge, so I won't express my opinion in advance. But I can tell you that my parents, and someone else, all think your article is wonderful and even improved.

Very big.”

Wang Zixu finally paid attention to the blind spot in her words: "Who is 'someone'?"

"I won't tell you."

Ning Chunyan did not tell the whole truth.

In fact, according to the judgments of the Ning family and Chen Qingluo, it is not a problem for Wang Zixu's article to get a ranking in the end. It may take some luck to get the first place, but it is definitely easy to get the top five.

But she didn't want Wang Zixu to have too high expectations too soon, so she just wanted him to keep a normal mind. What's more, she was in an official position now, and some words would be different when she said them.

Wang Zixu read Chen Zhongshi's words eagerly for a while. He keenly realized that this book was very suitable for him, especially at this moment. These words were like some small puzzle pieces, which fit exactly what he wanted.

missing part.

It would be great if I could read this book before the essay competition. Wang Zixu thought greedily.

After reading for a while, he suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Ning Chunyan, and found that she had been staring at him with a smile. He realized that he had left her out in the cold, and asked a little apologetically:

"How are you preparing your magazine?"

Ning Chunyan said in the tone of greeting a dog to eat: "No need to pretend to care about my magazine, just read it quickly."

"I really care."
