Lu Zhenqiu had just woken up and her phone was vibrating with beeps.
She glanced at the screen and saw a message from her friend, a screenshot. The content of the screenshot was about her girlfriend, Tang Yingxia.
Three minutes ago, Tang Yingxia told everyone in the small group of close friends that Yu Wen's new book was released, and those who liked it could help promote it.
Lu Zhenqiu entered the group chat and scrolled up. She didn't see this message, but only saw Tang Yingxia's withdrawal record of a message.
There are also some chat records.
[? ? ? ]
[Xia Xia, are you in the wrong group? ]
Then Tang Yingxia quickly withdrew the message and replied with a smiley face in the group chat.
Lu Zhenqiu looked at the smiling emoticon and pursed her lips. Every breath she took hurt. Her brain which was just waking up from her sleep suddenly woke up. Her throat siezed up, as if a lump was stuck there. The rim of her eyes was gradually turning red, her eye sockets felt inflamed, and her vision was blurry.
She closed her eyes, put down her phone, bit her lip after a few seconds, and added Tang Yingxia's reader's group using the account she had just created for yesterday.
Tang Yingxia is her girlfriend. They have been in a private relationship for more than two years, but rarely see each other. They live in different places, and every time when the holidays are approaching, there are always various unexpected encounters.
As for why they have not made it public, it is because Tang Yingxia said that she does not like too many readers to pay attention to her private life, and be judged by others.
Lu Zhenqiu respects her, so she has not made it public. Now it seems, is this really the case?
Toot——
She joined the group chat.
Lu Zhenqiu had the illusion that she was in another world. She used to be Tang Yingxia's group chat administrator. Later, after confirming her relationship with Tang Yingxia, she left the group chat to avoid suspicion. When she left the group, there were only 500 people in the group chat. Now it has 2,000 people. It is very lively.
[Scatering flowers, scattering flowers! Hello, new sister, post your photos! ]
The quick welcome was much more lively than before. Lu Zhenqiu replied with an emoji and scrolled up the chat records.
Although there was lots of news, she easily found the message three minutes ago.
Sheng Xia(Tang Yingxia author name): @Everyone, Yu Wen has opened a new book, remember to help publicize it [Blow Kiss].
[Xia Wen SZD! Xia Wen SZD! sisters! It's here! ](xia wen is tang Yingxia and yuwen cp name)(SZD=是真的=my cp is real)
[I have sweets to eat! I will promote it now! Love Xia Xia love Wen Wen! ] (sweets = proof that my cp is real and usually when you look at it, you will feel that your cp is very sweet together)
[The two chefs are ecstatic! Today is another day to eat sweets! ] (another term for fans/create fan content for them)
After swiping through several entries, a familiar person appeared.
Yu Wen: [Everyone, don't talk nonsense, it's nothing. ]
When did she join the group? Tang Yingxia didn't even say anything about it.
Lu Zhenqiu bit her lip, a hole in her heart was torn open, blood flowed out and the pain caused her to curl up. The screen gradually blurred.
Her arrival at the group chat was just a trivial matter, and all the readers began to happily discuss Xia Wen CP.
Only Lu Zhenqiu read these words over and over again. Suddenly she felt sick! She threw off the blanket and ran barefoot to the bathroom, lifting the toilet lid and vomiting in the darkness. Tang Yingxia's speech in the group chat emerged in her brain.
Sheng Xia: [Yes, don't talk nonsense, in case someone misunderstands and what should I do if Yu Wen cannot find a wife and blame it on me?]
Lu Zhenqiu felt like vomiting out her gallbladder. She sat by the toilet, with her back against the porcelain tiles, and a cold feeling touched her heart from her back. The feeling was very chilly.
Lu Zhenqiu stood up and washed her face. When she heard the phone ringing on the bed, she walked over and the screen flashed Tang Yingxia's name. She didn't answer it and put it aside.
She stood up and turned on the computer. When she waited for the computer to turn on, she changed her clothes and put on light makeup. Her hair was loose and hanging behind her back. Her facial features were delicate and beautiful, and her eyelashes were naturally long and thick. Curled, fair skin, pale pink lipstick.
When entering the live broadcast room, a message popped up at the bottom:
[Isn't today a rest? ]
Lu Zhenqiu replied to Hua Luo: [It's the last day, just persevere. ]
Hua Luo: [Did you see the message I sent you? ]
Lu Zhenqiu: [Yeah. ]
It was Hua Luo who first discovered that something was wrong between Tang Yingxia and Yu Wen.
They were both authors of the same website. Tang Yingxia had been writing novels for seven or eight years and her popularity was not that high. In the past two years, Yuri could be adapted into a drama. An investor took a fancy to Tang Yingxia's novels and even bought two of them consecutively, and the results were good after it aired, causing Tang Yingxia to become popular.
Now she is recognized as a well-respected author in the circle.
As for Yu Wen, she is a newcomer who has just written novels in the past two years, she is very smart. Lu Zhenqiu, who does not write novels, has been amwayed several times, but at that time, she never thought that she would be close friends with Tang Yingxia.
The two were related to each other on Weibo three months ago. Not long after, Hua Luo sent her a private message, asking her to pay attention to Tang Yingxia and Yu Wen, saying that the two were too close. At that time, she was too busy switching platforms. By the time she was not busy, she had seen many readers eating on that CP.
Hua Luo: [Qiuqiu, do you know who the investors who bought Tang Yingxia's two novels? ]
Lu Zhenqiu frowned: [Who is it? ]
Hua Luo:[Isn't it? Tang Yingxia didn't tell you? ]
Lu Zhenqiu had a bad premonition in her heart, and her stomach was turbulent again after vomiting.
She hadn't eaten full meals for the entire day for several days. She recently weighed herself and her weight had plummeted.
Seeing that she didn't reply, Hua Luo directly sent: [It's Yu Wen's company, I thought Tang Yingxia told you. ]
Tang Yingxia did not tell her about this matter.
Lu Zhenqiu clenched the phone tightly, closed her eyes lightly to adjust her breathing.
After a while, she replied: [No. ]
Hua Luo typed a lot of words and deleted them. Finally, she asked: [Then about she and Yu Wen, did you ask her? ]
Lu Zhenqiu's fingertips which were typing turned white: [No. ]
Hua Luo:[Are you still believing in Tang Yingxia's nonsense? ]
Why don't you want readers to know that you are in love, don't want too many people to pay attention to your private life, don't want to be criticized, why do you want the author to act like an entertainer and cover up your relationship?
Hua Luo doesn't understand it at all.
But that was before, what's going on with Yu Wen now?
There is no need to cover up? ?
Lu Zhenqiu didn't reply.
She stared at the computer for a long time. After a while, her phone beeped twice. She turned her head and saw the message from Tang Yingxia: [Honey, are you awake? ]
She held her phone in her hand, dazed for a moment. There was movement at the door.
Lu Zhenqiu looked over and saw a golden retriever sitting there. Seeing Lu Zhenqiu looking over, the golden retriever walked over wagging its tail and leaned against Lu Zhenqiu, as if it knew that Lu Zhenqiu was in a bad mood.
Lu Zhenqiu patted the dog's head, her voice hoarse: "Maomao, let's go play." Maomao purred twice and stayed close to her.
Fans came in one after another in the live broadcast room. This is a small platform. A friend of Tang Yingxia was in charge of the entertainment section. At that time, the platform had just started. It focused on the game section and spent a lot of money to buy several well-known livestreamers contracts. On the entertainment side There were no people, so Lu Zhenqiu was recruited.
Later, something happened to the platform. Those game streamers took their fans to other platforms.
The platform that had just started collapsed. However, Lu Zhenqiu never left because of Tang Yingxia's friend, this year the contract expired for two years, and the platform was unable to renew it, so Lu Zhenqiu found another platform in advance.
Although the platform is small, Lu Zhenqiu still has some fans. These fans screamed with joy when they saw Lu Zhenqiu stream!
[Qiuqiu! Don't you have a cold? Why are you still streaming? ]
Lu Zhenqiu really had a cold these past two days. She just had a lunch break and couldn't sleep, so she just got up and started a stream.
Anyway, it's the last day.
She smiled lightly and explained in the stream. Most of ger fans felt worriedfor her health, and a few of them were asking: [Qiuqiu, which platform do you go to? ]
Lu Zhenqiu smiled: "It's not completely decided yet." The fans knew what the correct thing to, so they changed the topic.
Lu Zhenqiu usually sings, but her throat has been huring these past two days, so she just started chatting with the fans.
They talked about the recent Yuri drama, which is an adaptation of Tang Yingxia's novel.
[I really like the casting! I like novels too! Qiu Qiu Have you ever heard of Sheng Xia? ]
Lu Zhenqiu paused to drink water.
There were already fans writing comments in the chat.
[They must have known each other, Qiuqiu and Xiaxia have even collaborated before! ]
[Yes! Qiuqiu has dubbed a radio drama for Xia Xia's novel! ]
Lu Zhenqiu lowered her eyes and took a sip of warm water. The viewers in the chat was already chatting. She said nothing, but just looked at the chat and saw that they had changed from the new drama to Tang Yingxia to Tang Yingxia and Yu Wen.
[Xia Xia is really different to Wen Wen, and this time she also helped to promote the new novel. ]
[I also think Xia Xia and Wen Wen CP is so good, they are so sweet to me. ]
A drop of hot oil fell into Lu Zhenqiu's heart, burning holes one after another in her heart. Her face turned pale and her hands clenched the cup tightly. She told her viewers that she was not feeling well and then turned off the stream.
News from Hua Luo followed: [Qiuqiu, are you okay? ]
Lu Zhenqiu felt dizzy. She wanted to text back to Hualuo that she was fine
however, her fingers pressed into the chat box with Tang Yingxia.
She thought for a few seconds and sent Tang Yingxia: [Tang Yingxia, Maomao is missing. ]
Tang Yingxia was chatting with Yu Wen about the new novel when she saw Lu Zhenqiu's profile picture popping up and frowned for a few seconds: [How did it go missing? ]
Lu Zhenqiu stared at her phone, her eyesight was dead serious, her hands which were typing was heavy: [I just opened the door to retrieve a parcel and Maomao rushed out of the door. ]
Will Tang Yingxia discover such a lame lie? Maomao has such a docile personality and will never act recklessly. Moreover, the delivery company in this community will never be delivered upstairs. It was Tang Yingxia who told her about it.
But Tang Yingxia didn't notice. Tang Yingxia sent:[Have you gone downstairs to look for it? It must be downstairs. It can't run far. You can look for it downstairs. ]
Not a single call came in. Lu Zhenqiu's breath stopped, and her throat was bitter and astringent. She typed: [Got it. ]
As soon as she sent it, she saw a Weibo message notification popped up.
Yu Wen: I have released a new book. I hope you will like it. Finally, I would like to thank Xia Shen for helping me revise my novel many times in the middle of the night. When the new book makes money, I will treat you to a hot spring @Sheng Xia.
Lu Zhenqiu clicked on the comment and saw a familiar and dazzling name. Sheng Xia: Get your swimsuit ready @Yu Wen.
The comment was sent a minute ago.
A minute ago, she just told Tang Yingxia that the Maomao had disappeared.
Lu Zhenqiu's only thoughts were shattered. She curled up on the sofa and held the phone to her chest. The pain was so painful that she couldn't make a sound.
Until night, Tang Yingxia did not send a message to Lu Zhenqiu, nor did she ask about the Maomao. Whether he came back or not, Lu Zhenqiu leaned on the sofa and leaned towards Maomao.
After thinking for a long time, she finally sent a message to Hua Luo.
Lu Zhenqiu: [Are you there? ]
Hua Luo: [Yes yes yes, what's wrong? ]
Lu Zhenqiu: [Last time you said that a friend wanted to rent out a house. Has the house been rented out? ]
Hua Luo: [Let me ask for you. ]
Hua Luo found Jin Shuilan in the contacts, moistened her lips nervously, edited the sentence and sent it out.
Jin Shuilan sat in front of the window and lowered her head to read the script. A pair of gold-rimmed glasses hung on the bridge of her tall nose. The crystal lamp hit the side of her face, making her chiseled and sharp features. The screen of her mobile phone lit up.
Jin Shuilan took off her glasses and pinched the bridge of her nose. She picked up the phone with one hand and saw a message: [Teacher Jin, you mentioned in the PYQ that you have a house for rent. Has it been rented out? ](PYQ=朋友圈,it is like a post that only your mutual friends can see)
Ps: if you see this, can you comment, this engagement means a lot to me
