Chapter 10 Roommate

Shu Yang looked up at Cheng Xinyi, picked up his phone and walked to the side of the street.

Although the phone number was not stored, he knew roughly who it was when he saw where it belonged.

When the phone rang for the third time, he answered it and said "Hello", and asked directly, "Shu Yang, why don't you answer the phone?"

"Second Uncle." Shu Yang called out, "I didn't hear it, what's wrong?"

Second Uncle Shu sighed and said, "Your father came here just now."

Shu Yang rubbed his eyebrows: "Don't lend him money."

"It's late." Uncle Shu said, "If I don't lend him, he will roll around in front of my house, drink with a fucking ice cream in my hand, eat and scold, and if I don't lend him, he will He eats ice cream all the time, and if he doesn't freeze himself to death, he will starve himself to death. I don't know why his grandma is so crazy! What can I do with him in this cold day? If I don't borrow him, I will be the next one to get mad !"

If it wasn't for the fact that his father was the one who pissed off and made his grandfather mad, Shu Yang couldn't help but want to laugh.

He took a deep breath, and before he could speak, Second Uncle Shu said, "I didn't mean you, Shu Yang. If you don't like your father, you can't just leave before the end of the year. He's telling you that you don't want him anymore. If you don’t lend him the money, he can go to the neighborhood committee and say he’s going to sue you for not taking responsibility for the pension, and the whole street is watching the jokes of my old Shu’s family!”

Shu Yang really didn't know how to explain it, and he didn't have the energy to explain it. He just asked, "How much did he borrow?"

Uncle Shu at the other end was a little angry: "You are impatient to listen to just a few words? It's true, you don't know people after you come out of a prestigious university."

Shu Yang said wearily: "Second Uncle..."

Uncle Shu interrupted bluntly: "I borrowed [-] yuan."

Shu Yang paused: "Should I pay [-] percent first?"

Uncle Shu hung up the phone.

The place where I stood was the air outlet, and Huai City was very windy, which made people feel a little dazed.

Shu Yang clicked on WeChat to find the second uncle, and transferred 1 yuan to him.

Adding in the [-] shares for Lin Cheng, the money for selling books didn't have time to warm up, and it was gone again.

He raised his head and looked at the locust tree in front of him, and he didn't know when the leaves would start to grow.

After a while, Cheng Xinyi shouted at the side of the barbecue stall: "Shu Yang!"

Shu Yang put away his emotions and strode back.

Cheng Xinyi stood by the side of the stall and looked at him worriedly: "What's wrong?"

"What can I do?" Shu Yang spread his hands slightly and pushed him lightly, "Go in, it's cold here."

Cheng Xinyi didn't know if he believed it or not.

Shu Yang thought that there was nothing wrong with his performance, watched him turn around before pursing his lips, subconsciously picked his left index finger, took a breath, and followed behind into the barbecue shed.

Erguotou is strong, and it is an extremely straightforward style when paired with barbecue. Cheng Xinyi may not have eaten it like this before, and his face will turn red after a while.

It may also be reflected by the red shed cloth.

Shu Yang looked gentle and gentle, and he was also gentle and gentle when he ate. He poured wine glass by glass, and his hands looked slow, but the frequency was actually very high, but he didn't show his face, and he looked as if he hadn't drunk.

Cheng Xinyi rested his hand on the mouth of the bottle, resting his chin on the back of his hand, and asked, "Brother Shu, why did you get fired, no, you resigned?"

Shu Yang looked sober, but he was also dizzy.

He seldom complained, and he never told anyone about it. Now that it was windy outside and warm in the shed, he suddenly felt that it didn't matter so much.

He organized his wording and said: "I used to work in a publishing house, and I just went there for half a year. I was considered a small editor, and I followed the deputy editor with another one at the same time. To put it bluntly, it was a running-in period. I haven't undertaken independent projects yet. Qualifications."

"Hmm, were you tricked by the same period?" Cheng Xinyi asked.

"No, it's not." Shu Yang shook his head.

"There is a popular science book that has been sold for several years. The editor in charge at the time is the current deputy editor. It happened to be republished by me." Shu Yang spoke slowly, "The book is translated, and the preface of the Chinese version is a Written by a professor, the manuscript is in the hands of the deputy editor. At that time, he sent the document to me, and I was going to send it for proofreading, but the time limit was very tight, and the printing was constantly being urged. There will be no problem with the old manuscript."

"It's over, it's over." Cheng Xinyi sighed, "This kind of problem will not be a problem, but there will be a problem. How can such a big thing go wrong?"

Shu Yang shrugged: "It should be that the manuscripts before and after proofreading were mixed up. Who would have thought that they were sent by mistake? In fact, if I opened it and took a look, I would be able to find it. It's an obvious problem."

"Later?" Cheng Xinyi bumped his glass.

Shu Yang: "I sold more than 1000 copies on the website a few years ago. On the second day of junior high school, I received a call from a reader, saying that the names of two scientists were wrongly written in the preface. I handled this matter, and I can't get rid of it I rushed back to discuss with the publisher, and first contacted the website to stop selling and take it off the shelf, and for those that have already been sold, I called and apologized one by one, and asked readers to send the book back to the publishing house, and the postage will be paid.”

Cheng Xinyi asked, "You made all the calls?"

Shu Yang nodded.

"You paid for the money?" Cheng Xinyi asked again.

Seeing that Shu Yang didn't speak, he said angrily: "But this manuscript was sent by your deputy editor by mistake! How can you bear everything?"

"No, it's not." Shu Yang said, "The deputy editor-in-chief is actually quite nice. He said that the main responsibility is his, and we will pay half of the compensation."

After he finished speaking, he smiled and took a sip of wine: "The day you met me, I held ten recycled books in my hand. My colleague told me to take them away as a souvenir."

Cheng Xinyi: "Isn't it enough to lose the money? Why are you still leaving?"

Shu Yang was silent for a while, and said: "The industry has been sluggish in the past two years, which is normal. Our unit's science popularization section for teenagers has merged with the literature section, and I can just leave one person in my position."

"You left on your own?" Cheng Xinyi was a little surprised, "Why are you such a virgin?"

Shu Yang glanced at him, saying that his eyes were supercilious, but Cheng Xinyi raised his eyebrows.

"Why am I so stupid? The editor-in-chief asked me to go to the proofreading department." Shu Yang leaned forward slightly to look at him. You said you were disbanding, do you know what that means?"

Cheng Xinyi was speechless, and it took him a long time to conclude: "It's a disadvantage for you to go to the proofreading department for your academic qualifications. Brother, who is underappreciated, it's so miserable."

Shu Yang shook his head with a smile: "If it's an ancient book, my qualifications are not enough... In fact, I am not above or below, so how can I say that I am underappreciated?"

The two sat and drank wine for a while, and Cheng Xinyi said, "Shu Yang, I have something to tell you."

Shu Yang suddenly raised his index finger at him.

Someone was talking outside the shed, Shu Yang leaned back slightly, getting closer to the shed cloth.

People are usually very sensitive to their own names, even in noisy environments. Shu Yang heard someone say "Shu Yang" just now.

People at the other tables in the shed were eating lively, no one was paying attention to this corner, Cheng Xinyi saw Shu Yang's movements clearly, stood up simply, and looked out from the gap at the top of the shed cloth on tiptoe.

There is also a barbecue stall next door. The two sheds open in two directions, but the innermost sheds are next to each other.

Also at the table next to the tarpaulin, there were three men sitting next door, one of whom was talking loudly.

Cheng Xinyi waved to Shu Yang, and Shu Yang got up and stood beside him, tiptoeing to look over.

The man turned his back to this side, smoking a cigarette, and bragging cursingly: "That idiot Shu Yang, the editor-in-chief is Uncle Lao Tzu, all the newcomers know but he doesn't know, and still wants to compete with me for the position? Who can favor him? It's so fucking pleasing to feel that I've done something wrong."

Someone said: "The deputy editor is still speaking for him."

The man must have been drunk, and his speech was a bit slurred: "He is unlucky, what the hell is wrong with the deputy editor? The deputy editor can't care so much, what an idiot."

"Hey, you bastard, you can tell a story." Cheng Xinyi said softly, "Is this idiot your colleague at the same time?"

Shu Yang nodded, and whispered, "He also lives nearby. We knew each other before graduation. He's from the department next door."

The person at the other end scolded Shu Yang from head to toe, Shu Yang was stunned when he heard it, but he didn't realize that he was talking about himself.

Cheng Xinyi looked at his expression and lit a cigarette: "Why are you still laughing when others scold you?"

"Don't you think it's funny?" Shu Yang clicked his tongue twice, and said meanly with the strength of alcohol, "You said that I have been away for so long, why does he still miss me so much? You must be good at math, come and ask him The area of ​​psychological shadow?"

Cheng Xinyi also smiled, cleared his throat, and said loudly on purpose: "Shu Yang, why did I hear someone calling you?"

Shu Yang laughed unsteadily, and raised his voice, responding, "Really? I didn't hear it."

Through the gap, the two of them saw the man who was speaking turn his head. Through the tarpaulin, they happened to meet Shu Yang eye to eye.

"Long time no see, everyone!" Shu Yang smiled cheerfully at the person on the other end.

The man said "fuck me" and turned his head abruptly.

Cheng Xinyi turned around, exhaled lightly at Shu Yang, and said, "Go and pay the bill, and wait for me at the street."

The two were very close, and the overhead light was shining, Cheng Xinyi's face was between light and dark, and his eyes were very bright.

Shu Yang raised his hand and waved the cigarette in front of him, coughed softly, and said, "Okay."

Cheng Xinyi looked at Shu Yang's back, took a puff of cigarette, pressed the cigarette butt out on the ground, went around the shed cloth opening, and walked towards the barbecue stall next door.

As soon as they walked to the door of the house, three people came out, just in time to meet Cheng Xinyi face to face.

Cheng Xinyi smiled, and walked straight over, facing the man, without saying a word, just made a heart-warming move, and kicked him over.

A person next to him screamed: "What are you doing?!"

Cheng Xinyi was expressionless, and went up and kicked again: "Go away, nephew of the editor-in-chief of your mother!"

The person on the ground snorted, and then the other person next to him reacted, and immediately rushed towards Cheng Xinyi.

Before Cheng Xinyi could make a move, he saw that the man staggered back a few steps, swiped his hand in the air a few times and still couldn't hold it steady, and fell down on top of his companion.

It was kicked by someone flying from the side.

Shu Yang moved neatly, stepped back and stood next to Cheng Xinyi, as if nothing had happened.

The people around started shouting, and the last of the three was about to come forward again, Cheng Xinyi grabbed Shu Yang's wrist: "Let's go!"

The two pushed aside a few onlookers, and started running regardless.

In fact, after running for a few steps, no one was chasing him, but Shu Yang didn't know why, he just wanted to run.

Cheng Xinyi didn't intend to stop, Shu Yang was led to run wildly by him all the time, like the second idiot master being pulled by Erha.

The two ran straight across the street, out of the edge of the old city, onto the main road, and finally downstairs in the community.

Shu Yang couldn't help laughing, shook off Cheng Xinyi's hand, leaned against the wall of the courtyard, and pointed at him: "I thought you were going to fight, why did you run away?"

In fact, Cheng Xinyi's kick was not light, and the man probably would have been in pain for several days.

But he didn't say anything, just asked with a smile: "Then why don't you go back and have a fight?"

"No, no, no." Shu Yang waved his hands quickly.

Cheng Xinyi thought he didn't want to cause trouble, but the next sentence was: "I'm so dizzy, I'm going to throw up if I run again."

"Are you afraid of being troubled?" Cheng Xinyi asked.

Shu Yang smiled: "I really don't like trouble, but if I'm really scared, I'll hold you back."

Cheng Xinyi gave him a thumbs up.

Cheng Xinyi has good physical strength, so he recovered quickly, looked at Shu Yang seriously, and clasped his fists together: "Brother, from now on, we two will be brothers who survived our lives!"

"Come on, I'm still alive," Shu Yang tried to catch his breath, "Isn't it the roommate who had a barbecue?"
