Chapter 435

Inside the washroom, Yu Shuheng hugged Li Heng from behind.

Outside the washroom, Zhou Shihe, who happened to pass by, looked surprised and confused.

The air suddenly became deathly still!

Li Heng, with a toothbrush in his mouth, couldn't help but turn halfway and meet Zhou Shihe's eyes.

Yu Shuheng quietly let go of her hands, then smiled and said generously to Zhou Shihe, "Shihe, morning."

"Professor Yu, morning."

Zhou Shihe responded gently, then looked away from him, continued to walk forward, and went downstairs gracefully.

Although it was only around 6:40 now, the sky outside had been bright for more than two hours. Zhou Shihe, who couldn't sleep, didn't hear any sound from the living room just now and thought the two had left, so she came out, but didn't expect to run into their ambiguous scene.

She didn't expect Professor Yu to be the active party, actively hugging him from behind.

How could this be?

Although she had guessed their relationship before, seeing it with her own eyes on the spot was still a big shock to her, even a bit subverting her worldview.

So much so that when she joined Wei Xiaozhu to go outside the school for breakfast, her mind was still full of the scene of the woman hugging the man in the washroom.

"Shihe, what's wrong with you? Distracted?"

Seeing her distracted and almost getting the tofu brain on her clothes, Wei Xiaozhu asked with concern.

Zhou Shihe smiled to herself, "Thinking about the arrangement, have you packed the things you need to bring?"

"Yes, they are all here."

Wei Xiaozhu pointed to her backpack and then asked, "Has Li Heng left?"

Zhou Shihe said, "Washing up at home."

Hearing this, Wei Xiaozhu wanted to bring breakfast for Li Heng on the way, but was stopped.

Zhou Shihe said, "Professor Yu brought him breakfast."

Actually, she didn't know if Professor Yu had brought him breakfast, she just simply didn't want to go back so early now.

"Oh, okay." Wei Xiaozhu didn't doubt it.

On the other side, small building No. 26.

Watching Zhou Shihe leave, Li Heng was very depressed.

This Miss Zhou was good everywhere, but her body was too thin, her steps were not big, and her walking sound was small. And he was distracted by Professor Yu's hug just now and didn't hear the footsteps coming from the living room.

Looking at Professor Yu inside through the mirror.

A thought suddenly popped into his head: Was Professor Yu intentional?

But looking at her facial expression as usual, he was not sure for a while.

This was Professor Yu, who was loved by thousands, after all. She was usually as cold as an Antarctic iceberg. Would she really let go of her status to do such a thing?

Yu Shuheng asked elegantly, "Little boy, what are you thinking about?"

After observing her again and finding no clues, Li Heng had to give up, rinsed his mouth, washed his face, and said, "Professor, let's go."

Taking their luggage, the two left Lushan Village, got into the Mercedes at the alley entrance, and went straight to the airport.

Passing the school gate, Yu Shuheng asked, "Are you hungry?"

Through the car window, Li Heng saw Zhou Shihe and Wei Xiaozhu at a glance, thought for a moment, and shook his head, "It's still early, not hungry yet. Let's go to Xiangnan to eat rice noodles, I've been craving them for a long time."

Yu Shuheng glanced at him, then swept a glance at the two women across the road, stepped on the accelerator slightly, and accelerated away from Fudan University.

The 9 o'clock flight, the two arrived at the airport after 8 o'clock.

Yu Shuheng didn't get out of the car, sitting in the driver's seat watching him get out and leave.

The airport was bustling with people, much livelier than he imagined. Walking forward for about 50 meters, Li Heng paused, pondered for a moment, and then turned back.

Yu Shuheng rolled down the car window and asked warmly, "Left something?"

Li Heng shook his head, stood in front of the car looking at her, and after a while said, "Thank you, Professor, for sending me here."

Yu Shuheng stared into his eyes, "If you really want to thank me, you might as well invite me to Changsha to eat a bowl of authentic rice noodles."

At this time, Li Heng was not sure about her thoughts, but didn't refuse, "Okay, then come with me."

Yu Shuheng looked at him for a while, opened the car door, and got out.

When waiting to check the ticket and board the plane, he asked, "Professor, do you have a ticket?"

Yu Shuheng took a ticket out of her pocket.

Li Heng was dumbfounded, muttering, "You had a premeditated plan."

Yu Shuheng smiled, pretending to turn and leave, "If you are afraid, I will go back now."

Li Heng reached out and grabbed her, sighing with fear, "Fortunately, I held back at the last minute a few days ago and didn't get into her bed, otherwise I wouldn't have to go anywhere."

Passing the security check and boarding the plane, he closed his eyes after sitting down.

Professor Yu asked, "Didn't rest well last night."

Li Heng answered, "No, I'm reflecting."

Professor Yu was surprised, "Reflecting on what?"

Li Heng said leisurely, "I'm reflecting on how I provoked you."

Surprisingly, Professor Yu didn't pursue this question, but the corners of her mouth hooked up, took out a book, and read it slowly.

Hearing the sound of flipping pages from time to time, Li Heng asked, "How many books does the professor read in a month?"

"Not sure, I will guarantee 2 to 3," she said.

"No wonder."

"No wonder what?"

"The bookish temperament is so rich."

Yu Shuheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Does it suit your heart?"

Just at this time, the plane took off, and the turbulence interrupted the conversation between the two. Li Heng opened his eyes and looked outside. Until they entered the stratosphere and stabilized, he said, "Didn't rest well last night, I'll take a nap."

"Mm."

What time did he go to sleep last night? Yu Shuheng, who was busy until very late, had a rough idea. Her gaze stayed on his side face for a while. When he made a rhythmic breathing sound, she slowly closed her eyes, also planning to take a nap.

It only takes about an hour and a half for the plane to fly from Shanghai to Changsha. It arrived in the blink of an eye. Just as he was dozing off, Li Heng was woken up by Professor Yu beside him.

"Are we there?"

"Yes."

After the plane landed and stopped, Li Heng cheered up and followed the crowd to the gate.

When leaving the airport, Yu Shuheng asked him out of the blue, "How about I settle down here?"

Don't, don't!

The great Qingyi bought a house here. If you buy another one, and you both like to take planes, it's hard to guarantee that you won't meet one day, and wouldn't you fight?

Li Heng smacked his lips and answered, "I usually don't stay here, I go straight back to my hometown."

Yu Shuheng understood what he meant, smiled meaningfully, and let it go.

Saying it was eating noodles, it was really eating noodles.

Choosing an old-fashioned noodle shop in the city, Li Heng ate beef noodles, and Professor Yu ate pork rib noodles.

After eating, she commented, "It's okay, but not as delicious as Shao Yang's."

Li Heng agreed with this, "Since the professor is here, are you going to Shao Yang to visit Teacher Wang?"

Yu Shuheng asked, "Do you hope I go?"

Li Heng shook his head, "Your feet are on your body."

Yu Shuheng said, "Then don't go."

Seeing him looking at her, she ate a chopstick of noodles, "I was laughed at by her a few days ago. A man lay on me and ran away. Too unattractive, no face. Don't go there to lose face."

Li Heng's face turned black, his mouth opened, and he wanted to say something but stopped.

After eating the beef noodles, Yu Shuheng looked at her watch and asked him, "When are you going back to Shanghai? Professor can help you buy a ticket."

"I still have to go to Beijing, I don't know yet," Li Heng said truthfully.

Yu Shuheng looked at him, then looked at him, then her right hand beckoned, and a car stopped at the shop door. The driver was Zeng Yun. She didn't stay, got into the car, and galloped toward the airport.

Li Heng followed out and stood on the side of the road watching her off.

The landlady shouted from behind, "Boy, haven't paid yet!"

Li Heng didn't say much, returned to the shop, and shouted, "Another bowl of beef noodles."

The landlady looked at his clothes, seeing that his temperament was extraordinary, thinking that he shouldn't eat a free meal, so she served another bowl of beef noodles.

Seeming to guess what the landlady was thinking, Li Heng quickly took out the money for three bowls and placed it on the corner of the table, eating with peace of mind.

It is said that noodles are not as good as noodles, and they are not full.

He ate two bowls in a row and didn't feel full. Damn it, it's mainly because the portion is small, and he ate it with unfinished meaning.

Coming out of the noodle shop, he first bought a bottle of soda to quench his thirst, and then found a grocery store to make a phone call.

The first call, he made to Sun Manning's house, and it was Sun's mother who answered.

"Auntie, has Manning come to Changsha?" After the polite greetings, Li Heng asked so.

"She came, the 8:30 bus in the morning. She said you have a meeting place, right?" Sun's mother asked worriedly.

"Yes, I'll go to the bus station to pick her up in a while. Once I pick her up, I'll ask her to call you back," Li Heng raised his left wrist.

"Eh, okay."

Estimating the time, if it goes smoothly, this girl will still take more than 40 minutes to arrive.

It's not far for him to walk to the bus station from here, at most 10 minutes.

No rush.

Thinking like this, Li Heng started to make the second call, to Song Yu.

Maybe knowing that he would come over in the past two days, Song Yu, who usually couldn't receive the call, appeared on the phone for the first time.

"Li Heng?"

"Ya! I haven't reported my family name yet, and you guessed it?" For no reason, Li Heng felt particularly happy.

Receiving his happy factor, Song Yu smiled and said, "By feeling, it should be you."

Then she asked, "Where are you?"

Li Heng told her, "Near the Changsha West Bus Station, waiting for Manning."

"Okay, then call me when you arrive in Yueyang, and my aunt and I will pick you up," Song Yu said.

"Mm."

This call was not long, mainly because it was very lively there, and there seemed to be many people. The two tacitly didn't say much, agreed on the meeting place, and hung up the phone.

After finishing the two calls, he thought about it, and the last call was made to Mai Sui.

The call was answered by Mai Dong. Unfortunately, Mai Sui accompanied her grandparents to the countryside and couldn't come back for a while. There was no phone in the countryside, so he had to give up.

Putting down the receiver, Li Heng didn't delay any longer and walked to the bus station after paying.

When passing a newsstand in the middle, he was stunned. Looking at it, he found that many newspaper headlines were reports about the writer "December".

For example, the headline on the front page of People's Daily: The Nobel Prize-level charm of "Bai Luyuan"!

China Youth Daily: "Bai Luyuan", the number one contemporary novel!

Guangming Daily: "Bai Luyuan", a handed-down masterpiece!

Beijing Daily: "Bai Luyuan", a masterpiece by a master that cannot be missed!

Southern Daily: Li Ao read "Bai Luyuan" three times and bluntly said it is comparable to "One Hundred Years of Solitude"!

Xinmin Evening News: December's new book "Bai Luyuan" welcomes the finale, an immortal masterpiece!

These are all front-page news of national newspapers. Look at the news headlines they made. Damn it, one is more scary than the other. Li Heng's face turned red unknowingly.

He roughly flipped through more than 40 copies and found that newspapers across the country were reporting crazily. He dominated the screen overnight!

In the words of later generations, he was slaughtering the list.

Only then did he react that the latest issue of "Harvest" magazine had been released yesterday. He had been busy recording a pure music album recently and forgot this big event!

Damn it!

It shouldn't be like this. This is his foundation in this life, and he actually forgot it while busy.

Li Heng patted his forehead with his right hand in annoyance, looked around, but didn't find the shadow of "Harvest" magazine, so he had to ask the newsstand owner, "Boss, is the latest issue of "Harvest" magazine not sold here?"

"Boy, you're late! It was sold out yesterday. The batch of goods that came this morning was snatched up in less than 20 minutes." Thinking of the business in the past two days, the newsstand owner's face was full of joy.

Li Heng was surprised, "Snatched up in 20 minutes, so popular?"

The boss lit a cigarette, took two deep puffs, and proudly pointed to four or five newspapers with his fingers, "Look for yourself, look, the news is reporting "Bai Luyuan", it's very popular. Tell you boy, this December is still our Hunanese, a great writer! Fellow villager!"

Aiyo! Stop praising! Don't praise me to my face!

Being praised like this, Li Heng felt a little embarrassed, but also a little proud, "I'm buying "Harvest" magazine for the leader. Boss, do you know if there are any sold elsewhere?"

"Sell? What international joke are you making? Gone, gone! I don't have it here, there must be no more elsewhere."

The newsstand owner waved his hands repeatedly, indicating, "Yesterday and today, many people were asking the same question as you. They couldn't buy it elsewhere, so they ran to me to ask."

The answer was expected, and Li Heng just asked on a whim.

Then he lowered his head and swiped his right hand, saying, "Boss, this, this, this... and this newspaper, give me one of each."

He asked for nearly 30 newspapers in one breath, making the boss grin, and hurriedly bent down to pick them up one by one.

The newsstand owner smiled, "Boy, you have a good eye. Someone bought it like this yesterday, saying it was to support fellow writers."

Support a hair, I can't get a red thread from these newspapers of yours, Li Heng complained secretly, but before he could answer, a middle-aged man next to him had already spoken.

The middle-aged man was heroic, "Boss, you are right. It's not easy for our Hunan to produce a great writer who shakes the country. It should be well supported. As long as it's a newspaper that reports our fellow villager's news, give me one of each."

The middle-aged man was obviously learning from Li Heng, waving his hand and buying more than 50 newspapers.

Li Heng was stunned, thinking to himself that I bought newspapers to see how much they praised me? To see what the specific response outside was?

What's the use of you buying so many newspapers?

Seeing Li Heng's expression, the middle-aged man laughed and said, "Little brother, you are very interesting. I bought it back to read slowly. I am a reader of our fellow villager. From "To Live" to "Culture Bitter Travel" to "Bai Luyuan", I followed all the way."

Li Heng gave a thumbs up, "I am the same as you, also a staunch supporter of our fellow villager."

"I can see it, haha." The middle-aged man pointed to the 30 or so newspapers in his hand and said.

Li Heng laughed and took out money to prepare for checkout.

At this time, the middle-aged man asked, "Little brother feels a bit familiar, where are you working?"

"Eh, it's better if you don't say it. Once you say it, I also feel familiar." The newsstand owner kept staring at Li Heng.

Familiar?

It seems to be the aftermath of the Spring Festival Gala, Li Heng smiled and said, "I work in the Tax Bureau, I just entered this year."

"College student allocation?" The middle-aged man leaned forward.

Li Heng opened his mouth and said, "Yes."

"Amazing." This time it was the middle-aged man's turn to give a thumbs up, then patted him on the shoulder, rolled up a bundle of newspapers, and left.

Li Heng was inexplicable.

After the person walked away, the newsstand owner asked Li Heng, "Boy, don't you know him?"

Li Heng blinked, "Very famous?"

The newsstand owner said, "Your Tax Bureau leaders have to nod and bow when they see him. He is the number one in our city!"

The newsstand owner pointed his index finger to the sky.

Li Heng understood. It turned out that he had just met the big boss of Changsha.

He then asked, "Why did he come here?"

The newsstand owner said, "His wife's maiden home is here."

After chatting for a while, seeing that there was not much time left, Li Heng hurriedly paid and left.

Rushing all the way, he finally arrived at the bus station. Damn it, the weather was a bit uncooperative, and it started to rain again.

No way, Li Heng bought an umbrella, looked left and right, and finally stopped at the entrance of a restaurant next to the station entrance.

The restaurant owner greeted, "Eating?"

"Wait, waiting for someone," Li Heng replied.

Seeing that there was a play, the boss was suddenly a bit more enthusiastic, "Are you waiting for the bus to enter the station?"

Li Heng said yes.

"Waiting for the bus from where?"

"Shao Yang."

The boss looked at the time, "Then it should be fast. If there is no problem with the bus, it will usually enter the station around 11:50."

Li Heng asked, "Are you familiar with the driver?"

"Familiar, why not familiar? I have been running this restaurant for more than three years, and I am familiar with drivers from all places. Wait, I will help you look at the bus. The bus from Shao Yang at noon is blue," the boss said.

Li Heng expressed his gratitude, "Thank you."

Saying it was around 11:50, it was really this time. The boss had sharp eyes and pointed to a bus that had just turned, "That one, the person you are waiting for should be on it."

Li Heng looked along, and sure enough, he saw the "Shao Yang--Changsha" sign on the front glass of the bus.

Li Heng was tall and handsome, very eye-catching in the crowd. Sun Manning on the bus also found him and immediately shouted for the driver to stop.

"Li Heng, do you miss me?" This girl was familiar, and she was full of enthusiasm as soon as she got off the bus.

Li Heng rolled his eyes, "No, why would I miss you?"

"Aiyoyo! I asked this on behalf of Mai Sui." Sun Manning curled her lips.

The boss interjected, "Eating or not?"

Li Heng laughed, nodded, took the girl into the shop, picked the expensive ones, and ordered four dishes in one breath, which did not disappoint the boss.

"Hot to death, hot to death, old lady." Sun Manning patted her chest, took the iced soda he handed over, and drank more than half of it in one gulp.

After drinking the soda, her eyes widened, "Why did you buy so many newspapers?"

Li Heng countered, "What do you think."

Sun Manning looked down and sneered, "Oiyo! So narcissistic!"

Li Heng laughed, turned to the report in the People's Daily, and read it while waiting for the dishes.

It was said to be a news report, but it was actually a literary review.

However, when he saw the name of the literary critic, he was stunned. Zhao Ming, editor-in-chief of "People's Literature"?

You, the dignified editor-in-chief of "People's Literature", why did you write a literary review for yourself?

As everyone knows, because of his appearance, "Harvest" magazine has now surpassed "People's Literature" in sales for 9 consecutive times, causing a sensation in the industry and an uproar.

To put it ugly, he is the enemy of "People's Literature"!

But looking at the title "The Nobel Prize-level charm of "Bai Luyuan"", it shouldn't be irony, right?

With a bit of curiosity, Li Heng skipped the news headline and the critic's name and read the main text:

In the vast starry sky of literature, there are always some works like bright stars, crossing the boundaries of time and space, illuminating the reader's soul. "Bai Luyuan", this masterpiece cast by the famous writer Mr. December with all his heart and blood, is undoubtedly one of them. It is not only a monument of contemporary Chinese literature, but also regarded by countless readers and critics as a literary treasure comparable to Nobel Prize-winning works.

In-depth analysis: The Nobel-level charm of "Bai Luyuan"

1. Shi Shi narrative structure

"Bai Luyuan" takes a village named Bailu Village on the Guanzhong Plain in Shaanxi as the background, and through the grievances and entanglements of the Bai and Lu families for generations, shows the social changes from the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China to the eve of the founding of New China for more than half a century. This novel uses a grand historical vision and delicate strokes to build a magnificent picture of the era. Its narrative breadth and depth are comparable to any world-class literary work.

2. Profound and complex character shaping

The characters under Mr. December's pen are all vivid and lively, each with its own characteristics. Whether it is Bai Jiaxuan's resilience, Lu Zilin's cunning and changeability, or Tian Xiao'e's tragic fate, they are all impressive. These characters are not just footnotes of the era, but a profound revelation of the brilliance and dark side of human nature, showing the author's profound insight into human nature and compassionate feelings.

3. Heavy and unique cultural heritage

"Bai Luyuan" is not only a family history and social history, but also a profound cultural history. The novel incorporates rich Guanzhong folk customs, folk beliefs, family ethics, and other elements, building a unique cultural world. This in-depth excavation and reproduction of traditional culture makes the work have cultural value that transcends the era, and also allows international readers to glimpse the breadth and depth of Chinese culture.

4. Exquisite and unique language art

Mr. December's language is simple and full of tension, retaining the charm of Shaanxi folk customs, and also has the fluency and precision of modern Chinese. He cleverly uses language to build a literary space that is both real and symbolic, allowing readers to shuttle between words, as if they had personally experienced that magnificent history. This superb language art is one of the important reasons why "Bai Luyuan" can cross borders and win praise from readers around the world.

Conclusion: The light of literature illuminates the future

"Bai Luyuan" is not only the pride of Chinese literature, but also a bright pearl in the world's literary treasure house. With its epic narrative, profound character shaping, heavy cultural heritage, and exquisite language art, it shows the power and charm of literature. Just as the Nobel Prize in Literature pursues, "Bai Luyuan" has won wide praise and high evaluation from readers with its excellent artistic achievements and profound ideological connotation. It is not only the personal glory of the writer December, but also a beautiful business card for Chinese literature to go to the world in the future.

The review article is very long, with more than 2,000 words. After Li Heng read it seriously, he was quite touched and was silent for a while facing the newspaper.

Sun Manning on the side also finished reading it and swept a glance around, whispering, "Li Heng, you are really amazing! Even the editor-in-chief of "People's Literature" doesn't care about previous suspicions and praises you like this, standing on your side."

Li Heng rolled his eyes, "What is not caring about previous suspicions? He and I have no private hatred."

"Cut! "Harvest" magazine suppresses "People's Literature" so much. If I were the editor-in-chief of "People's Literature", I would definitely not praise you, even if your book is awesome!" Sun Manning said.

Li Heng said leisurely, "Hair is long, knowledge is short, so you are not the editor-in-chief of "People's Literature"."

"What do you mean? Look down on me? Old lady is also a high-achiever at Fudan University." Sun Manning held her head high and chest out, with her right hand on her hips.

Li Heng glanced at her, "No pattern, no matter how big the chest is, no matter how warped the butt is, it's useless."

Sun Manning looked down and said with a thief's eyes, "My chest is not as big as Teacher Runwen's."

Li Heng: "."

In the middle of summer, the clothes are thin, and some things are easy to get heatstroke if you look too much, easy to have a nosebleed, and the shorts are easy to rot. Li Heng was too lazy to pay attention to her and continued to flip through other newspapers.

PS: Update first and then revise.

The previous chapter was deleted a lot and blocked. Later, I found the editor to unblock it.

Uh, it should be said that the parts of this book that have a little color and sexual descriptions are almost all deleted. Big guys should watch it in time. March has no modification permission and cannot be added back.

Well, there is another chapter in the evening, but I have to go out, maybe it will be a bit late.

(End of this chapter)
