Chapter 705

"Cheers!"

In order to adjust the atmosphere and the relationship between Shihe and Yu Laoshi, Sun Manning responded first, holding her beer glass high.

Mai Sui also picked up her glass.

Yu Shuheng raised her glass third.

Feeling a certain man looking at her obscurely, Zhou Shihe put down the newspaper in her hand and also picked up the wine glass.

With a "duang" sound, the five glasses collided together.

Then they drank it in one gulp.

Sun Manning asked Yu Shuheng, "Teacher, is Tokyo fun? Is it very developed? How does it compare to Shanghai?"

Yu Shuheng said, "It's okay. At the current stage, it might be more prosperous than Shanghai, mainly because it's more fashionable and shopping is convenient. But now our country is implementing reform and opening up, and we will slowly catch up later."

Although Yu Shuheng came from a big family and clearly knew the current gap between the country and abroad, she had also been a university teacher for several years, and teaching by example was an instinct; encouraging everyone was a consciousness engraved in her bones.

Speaking of fashion and shopping, the chatterbox among women was instantly opened. Sun Manning and Mai Sui participated actively, and soon the living room became very lively.

Although it was a women's topic, Li Heng also occasionally added a few words.

Only Zhou Shihe didn't make a sound throughout, listening quietly to the chat of a few people.

Sensing this scene, Li Heng sighed secretly: Zhou Gu Niang is much harder to deal with than Yu Laoshi; the difficulty coefficient is almost the highest among the women he knows.

If there were a ranking of difficulty coefficients: the first belongs to Zhou Shihe; followed by Song Yu and Xiao Han; then behind...

Is there anything behind behind?

All are... sigh, all were actively attracted by him.

The reason why Xiao Han and Song Yu are tied is because he pursued Xiao Han first in this life. If he had tried pursuing Song Yu first, whoa! Guaranteed he wouldn't have tricked the black-bellied wife yet.

Li Heng took the initiative to talk to Zhou Gu Niang, "Have you been at home since returning from Shaodong?"

"Mm, always in Yu Hang." Zhou Shihe's voice was very nice, warm and moist like jade, with a kind of cool feeling.

Li Heng asked, "What do you do at home?"

Zhou Shihe said, "Read books, practice piano. When the weather is good, go out for a walk with Sui Sui."

Li Heng asked, "I remember in the first semester of sophomore year, you said you were going to participate in an international piano competition. Has Teacher Wu approved you now?"

Zhou Shihe looked at the wine glass in front of her quietly, "Approved."

Li Heng's eyes lit up, "When are you going to participate in the competition?"

Zhou Shihe replied, "Still considering."

Hearing this, Li Heng poured her another glass of beer and poured himself one, "Come, I wish you success, may all your wishes come true, and bring back the championship trophy."

Zhou Shihe smiled slightly and touched glasses with him, "Thank you."

As she spoke, the two looked at each other and simultaneously drank the wine in the glass without leaving a drop.

Then she asked, "Were you at Dongting Lake in August?"

She originally hadn't thought of asking this question, but just now it slipped out unconsciously.

The reason for the question was simple: during the Dragon Boat Festival, Song Yu's impression on her was too deep; Song Yu brought her a strong sense of crisis, and this man was particularly partial to Song Yu.

But after asking, Zhou Shihe's finger bones squeezed the wine glass without moving, feeling that she had asked a stupid question. Because this question exposed her heart.

Li Heng sensed Zhou Gu Niang's abnormality, feeling happy in his heart, but his expression remained as usual, "Mm, I stayed there for a while, and later went to Jingcheng."

What did he go to Jingcheng for?

He didn't say, and didn't want to continue.

Similarly, the smart Zhou Shihe didn't ask further.

Li Heng poured another glass of wine, picked up the wine glass and joked, "Accompany me to drink the third glass of wine, and after drinking, you can ask a question."

Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly, said okay, and then really drank the third glass with him.

Finally, she asked with expectation in her eyes, "I remember you once said that there were many songs in your mind that hadn't been organized yet. When will you release another pure music album?"

Damn it, I knew this would be asked one day.

Fortunately, he is a reborn person, and piecing together an album is not difficult.

But not now, only to hear him reply, "When I have time. I'm about to write a new book. Let's talk after I finish writing the new book."

For the first half, Zhou Shihe was originally a bit disappointed, but the second half made her spirit great, asking quietly, "When will you start writing?"

Li Heng told her, "In these two days."

Zhou Shihe nodded slightly, feeling that life suddenly had something to look forward to; she could attend classes, practice piano, and have books to chase in her spare time.

Although she had never told outsiders, she liked chasing the novels he wrote very much.

How to describe that feeling? It couldn't be described in words. It was as if she was creating with him, roaming in the world of the book together, having a sense of resonance.

Whenever she chased the book to the most addictive time, she would think: This man is born to be her nemesis; she likes reading, likes music. He knows everything, and is the best among people.

Don't look at Mai Sui, Yu Shuheng, and Sun Manning chatting about fashion; in fact, the three women were also quietly listening to the conversation between Li Heng and Zhou Shihe.

This wasn't it, Sun Manning interjected, "Big rich man Li, can you write my name into the new book? I want to be a big villain."

Mai Sui asked, "Why do you want to be a big villain?"

Sun Manning put her left hand on her waist, "Abuse the protagonist to death, it's fun, what else could it be for?"

Mai Sui: "......"

Zhou Shihe: "......"

Yu Shuheng: "......"

Li Heng refused, "No."

Sun Manning asked depressedly, "Why not?"

Li Heng said, "Because I'm going to write a science fiction novel for the new book."

"Science fiction? What is a science fiction novel?" Sun Manning looked blank.

Li Heng smiled mysteriously, "Don't understand? If you don't understand, don't ask, keep it mysterious first. When I write it out, you'll understand."

"Cut! Stingy ghost. I have hands and feet, I'll go to the library to check information tomorrow, can this small problem stump this big chest?" Sun Manning became more and more unrestrained when she spoke.

As soon as she finished speaking, the other four in the room looked at her chest in unison.

Being stared at by the four, Sun Manning was rarely a bit embarrassed, hurriedly blocking her chest with both hands and saying, "Oh my, I forgot, the airport is not here, I can't afford to provoke Sui Sui and Yu Laoshi, la la la."

The airport refers to Ye Ning.

In fact, Sui Sui and Yu Laoshi are the same as this goods, both are c, at the same level.

However, whether it's Mai Sui or Yu Laoshi, their appearance and temperament can throw this girl several streets away, so the fullness in front of their chests naturally has more temptation and more charm.

The smallest here is Zhou Shihe, who is b+, and when Sun Manning glanced over, Zhou Shihe glanced at her.

Sun Manning immediately giggled, and shouted loudly to drink and play cards, playing Guan Dan, "Damn, ever since Li Grandpa taught me Guan Dan, I want to play every day, my hands are itching. Come, come, come, let's play for 5 cents a level."

This girl organized it, and others were very supportive, all giving face.

Drawing cards and dividing sides, Yu Shuheng and Sun Manning were on one side.

Zhou Shihe and Mai Sui were on one side.

Li Heng didn't participate, but stood up directly and went to the study to prepare for the upcoming science fiction novel.

Closing the study door, he opened the window to let in some air.

Then he sat at the desk, found the fountain pen and notebook that had been sealed for two months, unscrewed the ink bottle, filled the shriveled pen belly with ink, and then sat quietly in a daze.

What to write?

"Hyperion Cantos"?

This is a badass book that swept all important science fiction awards in the world, but the problem is that the publication year is 1989.

And now it is August 31, 1989, and it has already been written, so it's too late in time, and can only be regretfully passed.

"Ender's Game"?

Hmm, how to say, this novel is not bad, but it only won a Locus Award, and the sales were not very explosive. For him who wants to make a splash in the science fiction field, it's still a bit lacking.

In terms of reputation, sales, and money-making ability, Li Heng tried hard to dig from his memory, and then dug out 5 science fiction novels.

They are "The Hunger Games," "A Song of Ice and Fire," "The Windup Girl," "Doomsday Book," and "The Three-Body Problem."

These 5 novels not only met the year requirements, but were all global explosions.

Especially the latter 4, not only were the sales explosive, but they also won important awards such as the Nebula Award, Hugo Award, and Locus Award, and are veritable science fiction classics.

In fact, he favored "A Song of Ice and Fire," "The Three-Body Problem," and "Doomsday Book" the most.

"A Song of Ice and Fire" has won 6 Hugo Awards, 2 World Fantasy Literary Awards, and 1 Locus Award.

As long as it is written, it is a work of both fame and fortune.

And it is a novel with Western characteristics, which can be better accepted by regions such as the British pound, US dollar, Japanese yen, Australian dollar, etc., and can make more money.

Why does he write science fiction novels? It's for money, for fame.

And "The Three-Body Problem" goes without saying, a monument of science fiction novels. As long as it involves science fiction novels, it must involve it, and its status is unquestionable.

But it also has a problem, which is that the settings inside are too fucking advanced. Once written, many other science fiction novels won't be able to be written, because they will be crushed, because it sealed the road in advance.

However, one thing to say, science fiction is science fiction, it needs imagination, it needs wild imagination, it needs innovation and creation. The so-called advanced here is actually a kind of praise and commendation. As a reborn person, there is nothing that cannot be written.

As for "Doomsday Book," it is the winner of the Hugo Award and Nebula Award, and is known as the representative work of infectious disease-themed science fiction. And the word count is not much, the effect is fast, and it is best as a test work.

After weighing for a long time, he finally picked up the fountain pen and wrote four words on the white paper: Doomsday Book.

The reason he chose this book first is that its reputation is big enough, and secondly, it is for long-term development.

If he brings out "The Three-Body Problem" now, he will reach the peak at his debut, and the path of science fiction will not be easy to walk in the future.

He decided to take "Doomsday Book" to test the water first, and he won't let go of others if he can, and will start to bring them out one by one according to the year.

There is no way, he has lived two lives, and heaven gave him such a good opportunity. If he doesn't make good use of it, it is a waste of heaven's gifts.

That would definitely be struck to death by lightning again!

Furthermore, speaking selfishly, he has provoked 8 women now, and they are all extremely excellent women. Whether it is to prevent future explosions, or to take good care of them and their children, he needs to constantly add buffs and shape golden bodies to himself, and stack his reputation, fame, and money to a terrifying level.

In this way, even if one day his relationship with them is known to the outside world, the tolerance will be higher.

Imagine, a generation of literary giants who are famous at home and abroad, a celebrity who brings pride to the country, the tolerance of the vast number of readers will definitely expand infinitely.

Perhaps his romantic affairs will also become a topic that people talk about with great relish.

Of course, this is just a preventive measure of his. With Yu Laoshi and the big green-clothed one, he hopes more that the explosion won't happen.

The original book "Doomsday Book" unfolds with dual-line narration: In 2054, Evelyn, a history student at Oxford University, accidentally enters a British village where the Black Death broke out in 1348 due to a failure in the time jump system, while at the same time, the future world triggers a modern isolation crisis due to the operator being infected with the flu. ===== CHAPTER 706 =====
