Chapter 61
Only then did Shi Yi realize that the woman standing in front of him seemed a little uncomfortable, her right foot was loosely standing on tiptoe, but she was smiling all the time, and there was no strange expression on her face, so Shi Yi didn't notice it.
"It's okay." Zhong Ling moved her sprained right foot, and the pain from her ankle was weak. Compared with this pain, she was more concerned about another point: "Shi, Shi Jin, right?"
Shi Jin nodded.
Zhong Ling's eyes were sparkling, she stared at Shi Jin's face, her eyes almost overflowed with joy: "Xiao, do you have a girlfriend or a boyfriend?"
It seemed that she was afraid that Shi Jin would be offended, so she quickly added: "Although asking like this is a bit offensive, I don't mean it maliciously."
"Auntie has a son. He is 24 years old. He is tall and handsome. He is tall and has long legs. He has a good temper." Zhong Ling flipped through the bag and tried to show him the phone: "He is also clean and self-conscious, and he will never mess with his relationship. .”
She flipped through it for a long time, and finally got the phone out.
It was only after opening the photo album and flipping through it for a long time that Zhong Ling remembered that after Yu Ci went to elementary school, she no longer took pictures with her old mother.
So she searched for a long time, and finally only found a photo of Yu Ci when he was seven years old.
The handsome little boy was wearing a handsome sailor uniform, looking at the camera with displeasure.
Zhong Ling's hand hesitated a little, but he still firmly put the photo in front of Shi Jin, trying to sell his son: "Look, this is a photo of my son, although it is a little small, but you can see that the facial features are very good Bar."
Shi Yi put his head together and came over.
Although the boy in the photo has a serious face, he can still see the baby's fat face and some excellent facial features, his eyebrows are heroic, and his body is straight.
Not bad for growing up.
Shi Yi nodded secretly.
Zhong Ling was also making a concluding statement at this time: "So, did you lack a boyfriend when you were young?"
There was a slight pause.
Zhong Ling thought about it, what if he likes girls?
So she added: "Maybe you lack a girlfriend? My aunt also has a niece who studies choreography and directing. She is beautiful and talented."
It's not impossible to be a daughter-in-law and a niece and son-in-law, she doesn't choose.
As she said that, she took back her phone and wanted to flip through the photos.
Shi Jin pursed her lips and stopped her: "Didn't you just say that you came to the autograph event? The time is almost up, if you don't go, it will be too late."
Zhong Ling let out an "Oops", thinking about it.
It's just that she's going to the signing event, and she has to win this handsome guy in front of her.
Zhong Ling rolled his eyes, opened the QR code, and stretched out his hand in front of Shijin: "Xiu, would you mind adding a WeChat account with Auntie? Let's chat when we have time."
Shi Yi was well aware of Shi Jin's temper, and was about to refuse for him when he heard the person next to his ear say, "Okay."
Shi Jin took out her mobile phone, scanned Zhong Sisi's unfolded mobile phone, and clicked send.
"Okay." He raised his eyelids, and the emotion in his eyes was gentle: "If you don't go, it will really be too late."
Zhong Ling took back the phone, looked at the avatars lying on the list with satisfaction, and smiled: "Okay, okay, let's chat when we have time."
Shi Yi looked at the figure in front of him trotting all the way in high heels, stopping to rub his feet from time to time, and wondered, "Who was that just now?"
Shi Jin turned off the phone: "I don't know."
Shi Yi stared: "I don't know that you are still so happy chatting with her, and you also added her WeChat?"
"Could it be..." Shi Yi moved his head in a cheap way, with a mysterious expression on his face: "You really have a crush on that son of hers?"
Shi Jin passed him indifferently, walked in front, and didn't answer his question: "Isn't the autograph signing about to start?"
Shi Yi immediately put aside his gossip, shook his head, and quickened his pace: "Yes, let's hurry up, book fans and friends in the exhibition hall are waiting, and the show will start soon."
Shi Jin responded and quickened his pace.
A signing event is generally an event where celebrities, writers or some celebrities sign their names on the spot for supporters who buy their works in public. Depending on the subject of the signing event, the form of the signing event is also different.
New Coal has also held signing events for other writers before, and the process generally includes opening, book purchase, signing and closing.
But Shi Yi knew Shijin's temperament, so he took the initiative to propose to the above to cancel the opening and closing links, and directly signed the book signing, and did not set a signing threshold, and only issued invitations to fans who bought the first batch of books. It is an interactive exchange with book lovers.
When Shi Yi submitted the application to the publishing house, he thought that the higher-ups would not approve it, which was indeed the case. His application was quickly rejected, but I don’t know what Editor-in-Chief Wei said, but the higher-ups changed their minds and agreed. A barely profitable signing.
So today's book signing is not a big one, but almost all the fans who come here are loyal book fans.
Considering the author conference at the end of the year, Shi Yi took Shi Jin's mask before he sat on the signing table: "You put on the mask first, and don't take it off today."
Shi Jin looked at him.
Shi Yi opened his mouth and was about to explain when he saw the person behind him: "Editor Wei."
Wei Chan nodded and walked to Shi Jin's side.
He didn't look at Shijin, but looked at the signing table in front of him: "The author conference at the end of the year is jointly held by several publishing houses, and there will be a live broadcast at that time. It's not a bad thing to keep a little mystery."
Although book fans don't look at their faces when they read books, having an excellent face is undoubtedly the icing on the cake.
A light fragrance came from the side.
Wei Chan turned the cuff buttons on his cuffs, and his eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses were unclear: "Is there any arrangement for Mr. Shi after the autograph session is over?"
Wei Chan stood so close that Shi Jin frowned uncontrollably.
He lowered his eyes indifferently, took the mask from Shi Yi's hand and put it on.
A faint voice came out through the mask, adding a bit of hazy softness: "Is there something wrong?"
"Of course." Wei Chan's eyes fell on Shi Jin's side face, his cold white skin was covered by a black mask, only a few traces of delicate white were faintly exposed, he smiled slightly, the expression in his eyes was somewhat smiling, It is more of a dark color that makes it hard to see: "The signing will be over, I will wait for you backstage."
Shi Jin straightened his cuffs with a calm expression, and the drooping eyelashes covered the expression in his eyes.
On stage.
The staff in front of the living room saw him sitting in front of the signing table, so they opened the door and arranged for book fans to line up in an orderly manner.
The first person to come on stage was a little girl holding a book with an excited expression on her face. She walked and jumped all the way to the signing stage, and her face turned red with excitement before she even opened her mouth.
Shi Jin suppressed the cold look in his eyes, the corners of his mouth were bent, and his expression was gentle: "Hello."
-
"How long does this line take?"
Holding the book in his hand, Ruan Tuan kept stepping forward to look forward, but the front was blocked so tightly that he couldn't see how long the line was.
She sighed sadly: "I read on the invitation card that the signing will last for two hours. Judging by the number of people, it's unlikely that we will finish signing before it's our turn."
"It's rare for Shi Qian to hold a signing event. If I can't get it this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to get it next time."
Liao Zhi was also a little worried, but she was in a better mood and comforted Ruan Tuan in a low voice: "It's okay, even if we can't make it today, I'll ask my uncle for help another day, and see if Teacher Shi Qian can sign for us."
Liao Zhi's brother-in-law is the editor-in-chief of Xinmei, so it shouldn't be difficult to find a writer from the publishing house to get an autograph.
After hearing this, the melancholy in Ruan Tuan's heart finally dissipated. She hugged the book and looked at Liao Zhi eagerly: "Zhizhi, you said it, don't forget it."
Seeing Liao Zhi nodded, she hugged the book and laughed: "Zhi Zhi, I love you so much."
Liao Zhi also laughed, and the two girls hugged each other affectionately and lined up.
"hiss--"
Xu Qian, who was standing behind the two of them, covered his cheeks sorely, not quite understanding the girls' world.
This dear you love me and I love you or something, it's too nasty.
He rubbed his sore teeth, poked his head out to look at the team ahead.
"how much longer?"
Yu Ci folded his arms around his chest, with an impatient expression on his face: "How long will this line take?"
He was instigated by Xu Qian to come to some signing event because he was full and had nothing to do. If he had the time, he couldn't do anything.
Xu Qian scratched his head with some guilt: "Hurry up, hurry up."
"Based on my experience, it probably still needs..." He poked his head out to look again: "It's about half an hour."
It was actually an hour, but he was afraid that he would leave immediately after saying Brother Ci, half an hour should still be within Brother Ci's tolerance...
Xu Qian quietly raised his eyes to look at Yu Ci.
Sure enough, although Yu Ci looked impatient, he still stood where he was, looking like he had no intention of leaving.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, Brother Ci is still curious about this "Shi Qian".
Thinking of his "borrowed" books, Xu Qian inexplicably felt a kind of pride in his heart—see, the author he likes, Brother Ci, also likes it.
Who knows the joy of Amway's success!
The team kept moving at a steady pace.
Xu Qian estimated that if the current speed is followed, it will indeed be scheduled in half an hour.
Just as he was happy, there was a small commotion in front of him, and a few words like "handsome guy" and "come here" could be faintly heard.
As soon as Xu Qian poked his head out, he heard Yu Ci behind him click his tongue.
"Hey?"
Liao Zhi also saw the person walking this way, she licked her lips, and greeted cautiously: "Uncle."
Wei Chan glanced at her and nodded without changing his expression.
Seeing Liao Zhi's reaction, the excited Ruan Tuan withdrew his hand that was about to say hello, blinked his round eyes, and quietly pretended to be a wooden man.
Zhizhi, this little uncle looks a bit fierce, she'd better keep silent.
Xu Qian looked at the two of them curiously, his heart burning with gossip.
So he watched helplessly as the handsome man in a neat suit took steady steps and finally stopped behind him.
Why?etc?later?
Xu Qian swiped and turned his head, and sure enough, he saw the man in the suit parked next to his brother Ci.
Wei Chan pushed his glasses, his suit was not wrinkled at all: "Have a cup of tea together?"
Compared with his meticulous attire, Yu Ci's attire was as casual as ever.
Maybe it's because he came to the signing event today, he didn't wear his usual old man's shirt and beach pants, but he wore a T-shirt in a proper way, with that outstanding face, the two standing together are very eye-catching .
It's a pity that the two people involved look at each other and hate each other.
Yu Ci twitched the corner of his mouth and refused: "I don't think we need to talk."
Wei Chan's expression remained unchanged: "What if it's related to getting married?"
start a family?
Xu Qian's ears immediately perked up.
Which married, the married or the Chen family?
However, neither of them wanted to explain.
"Take it." Yu Ci threw the book into Xu Qian's arms, his eyes were cold: "Wait for me to come back."
-
The signing session lasted three hours, longer than expected.
Excited book fans left one after another with signed books and group photos. After the staff cleared the venue, the signing booth quickly returned to emptiness.
Shi Jin stretched her stiff right hand and stood up.
Shi Yi gave him a bottle of water, and reminded him by the way: "Editor-in-Chief Wei has gone out, I want you to wait for him in the background."
"Thank you." Shi Jin took the water and unscrewed the lid: "How long has he been out?"
"About two hours." Shi Yi thought for a while: "I shouldn't have to wait too long. Just now Editor-in-Chief Wei called and said he would be back soon."
The cool liquid soaked the dry throat and relieved the summer heat.
Shi Jin closed her lower eyelids with a calm expression: "Okay."
Wei Chan didn't make him wait too long.
Before the water in the bottle bottomed out, a man in a suit appeared at the door.
"Mr. Shi, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
Wei Chan still wore his pair of gold-rimmed glasses, with a gentle look: "To express my apology, let me treat Teacher Shi to dinner."
Shi Jin frowned and refused: "No need."
The author says:
Wei Chan will be temporarily offline after finishing these few chapters;
