I just want to draw cartoons quietly

If someone confesses to you, you hate them. What kind of logic is that?

"That's good... then I'll answer your question, the protracted battle I said is... as long as you don't tell me for a day, you hate me, I'm annoying, you don't want to see me Before I arrive..." Gu Yan said.

"I will never give up... until one day you fall in love with me."

"So...... If one day you think I'm an eyesore, annoying, or hate me, please tell me directly...... I will leave by myself , but other than that... let's just keep getting along as friends!" Gu Yan sat upright, looking into Chu Yu's eyes, and said with a playful smile.

At this moment, she...has no loss on her face that she was rejected by Chu Yu before, because her purpose from the beginning was to switch the relationship between the two of them from a friendship relationship to the current situation …

As for Chu Yu, a sense of trouble emerged in his heart at this time. Indeed, he didn't hate Gu Yan at all... But what he hoped was that Gu Yan could just treat him as a friend, and the two of them would be happy. As before, if the conditions are right, we can cooperate at work, and it would be great to play games together at other times.

"You're just wasting your time like this... Gu Yan, you're a good girl, I really just treat you as a friend, no matter what you think of me, I won't change. .......I think of you as a friend, what relationship is more than a friend, that is just your wishful thinking..." Chu Yu persuaded with some anxiety.

Gu Yan heard the words, but didn't say a word.

But she told Chu Yu with her actions what she meant.

In the dark carriage, she stretched out her hand and directly grabbed Chu Yu's hand.

Subconsciously, Chu Yu retracted his hand....... His heart skipped a beat.

Opposite him, Gu Yan had a smile in his eyes.

"Didn't you say that in your eyes, the relationship between us will not change?"

"When you regarded me as a friend before, you held my hand and ran around the stadium, you didn't have so many scruples..."

"Since your opinion of me has not changed, what are you hiding now?"

"Also, let me ask you.....does your heartbeat speed up for a moment..."

"If there is, it also proves that at least...you have a little bit of affection for me!"

Gu Yan's words were light, but they were like arrows hitting Chu Yu. He wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute...

Fortunately, at this moment, the ferris wheel finally landed to the bottom, which eased Chu Yu's embarrassment.

Chu Yu and Gu Yan walked out.

The wind blew up Gu Yan's hair and the corners of her skirt, and her face became even more beautiful under the neon lights.

Chu Yu looked at her... Although she didn't want to admit it...

But indeed, it is exactly as Gu Yan said........Only at this moment, Chu Yu's view of Gu Yan is that besides seeing her as a good friend...she also regards her as a viewed by a woman.

Whether he will really fall in love with her in the future as Gu Yan expected, Chu Yu doesn't know in his heart.

But at least...Chu Yu felt that the Gu Yan at this time was much more attractive than the Gu Yan before the two of them played the Ferris wheel.

This is not only caused by the change of Chu Yu's mood, but... the conversation with Gu Yan made Chu Yu realize...

She turned out to be such a person. Under her hard-working appearance, she also had all kinds of small thoughts...... But he didn't hate such a person.

Chu Yu sighed.

It's difficult......If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come to the amusement park to watch any games.

He and Gu Yan walked out of the amusement park together.

Gu Yan's expression was tinged with happiness, while Chu Yu's expression was concerned.

"Then Chuyu... I... will go back first!"

On the road, Gu Yan turned to face Chu Yu.

At this time, she became more cheerful than usual because she had spoken out her thoughts.

"I'll go home tomorrow... After all, the Chinese New Year is only a few days away... We may not meet until after the next year."

"You...... During this period, if you have anything to ask me, or if you want to say something to me, please contact me...... I will be the first time Respond to you." Gu Yan looked at Chu Yu and said seriously.

"I'll take a taxi and go back alone...... Didn't you say you were hungry before? You should go eat first...... In my case, I'm not charming enough, so I won't If you eat it, you won't be hated if you gain weight..." Before leaving, Gu Yan made a joke to Chu Yu.

Chu Yuren watched Gu Yan get in the car and leave in a daze.

.......

Chu Yu stood there for a few minutes.

goo goo~

My stomach protested again.

He randomly found a hot pot restaurant and ordered a bunch of things by himself.

Although he was a bit confused, his appetite was surprisingly good......

In the end, he walked out of the hot pot restaurant.

The mood is very annoying....... want to play games.

Thinking of the game, Chu Yu thought of Gu Yan again.

He hesitated for a while, took out his cell phone and called Gu Yan...

"Well... do you want to play games when you go back at night?"

"Yes!" Gu Yan replied.

"Then I'll be home then, and I'm calling to invite you..." Chu Yu hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Never mind, let it be...

Anyway, I don't like Gu Yan now, so why bother?

Just get along with her like before.

Chu Yu's psychological adjustment ability is also very strong. Although the sudden incident tonight made him a little confused, he has an advantage. He will temporarily let things he can't handle, and he will never go into a dead end.

2Chapter 16 Gossip

The next day, scandals about the famous cartoonist Shui Xin and voice actor Gu Yan in Longguo gradually spread in the comic circle.

Especially those people who saw the end of the live broadcast of the game, they were full of gossip. This teacher Shui Xin just pulled Gu Yan out of the field, you said there was nothing between them?

However, fans of this kind of thing are basically supportive. After all, they are fans of Chu Yu because of Chu Yu's works, and in Chu Yu's animation works, Gu Yan's dubbing has not lost the chain at all. Together, they are naturally happy to see the results. Although many male fans of Gu Yan feel it is a pity, Gu Yan's personal affairs have nothing to do with them at all, and it is useless for them to object.

Early in the morning, under Chu Yu's Weibo, all the fans spoke at the bottom to congratulate Chu Yu and Gu Yan...

This left Chu Yu speechless for a while... These people didn't know anything about the situation, so they decided that he and Gu Yan were in a relationship.

However, Chu Yu didn't bother to explain. This kind of thing can't be explained clearly. After all, fans will only believe what they see with their own eyes, and even if the outside world misunderstands his relationship with Gu Yan, it doesn't matter to him.

But early in the morning, Chu Yu had to explain a few phone calls from friends...

.......

"Chu Yu, did I hear that you dated Gu Yan?" Before eight o'clock, Li Xi was the first to ask about it.

As for Gu Yan's interest in Chu Yu, people around him basically saw it. To be honest, Li Xi also had a lot of credit for forcing Gu Yan to make up his mind to confess to Chu Yu.

If it weren't for the conversation between Li Xi and Gu Yan that gave Gu Yan a sense of crisis, there is a high probability that Gu Yan would have waited to get along with Chu Yu for a longer period of time, and after the two became more familiar, she would reveal her secrets to Chu Yu little by little. idea.

"Well...you are all grown-ups, I shouldn't interfere in your private affairs...I just want to remind you here, don't be lazy, just finish the work on time, I respect your decision on other matters."

Now Chu Yu has grown into one of Xuan Gui's pillar cartoonists, and two of Xuan Gui's most popular works are Chu Yu's, Li Xi also has to worry.

"I'm not dating Gu Yan! Li Xi, you like to listen to Internet rumors..."

Hearing this, Chu Yu could only try to explain to her that he went out to play with Gu Yan yesterday, and the news about his relationship with Gu Yan spread on the Internet was false, but he concealed the matter of Gu Yan and his confession, after all About Gu Yan's privacy......

As for how much Li Xi finally believed, Chu Yu didn't know.

Next, Huang Ming also called.

"Brother, you are finally enlightened. Let me just say, how can people be so dull? Then I figured out what Gu Yan thinks of you a few months ago... You are just like an idiot Same... how about it, who took the initiative between you and her? I guess it was Gu Yan, right... If she didn't take the initiative, how could you and her get along? …”

Listening to Huang Ming's words on the phone, Chu Yu fell silent.

This guy, everything he said was right...except for not guessing that Chu Yu rejected Gu Yan...all the other details were right.

In the end, Chu Yu just repeated what he had said to Li Xi.

Huang Ming on the other end of the phone looked embarrassed.

Because Chu Yu concealed the matter of Gu Yan's confession... In Huang Ming's view, Chu Yu and Gu Yan just went to watch a game in an amusement park... and he was here together Opening his mouth is to analyze this and that..... Analyze all of Gu Yan's thoughts to Chu Yu.

"Here, brother Chu, I was joking just now...don't take it to heart..."

Huang Ming said a few words in embarrassment and hung up the phone.

Not long after... Tang Xin called.

For Tang Xin, when she woke up in the morning, she saw that two friends who uploaded online that she played the game together were in a relationship, she was stunned.

There was a feeling of being abandoned by the two of them.

But after Chu Yu repeated those words again, she easily believed that Chu Yu and Gu Yan just went to watch the game yesterday.

But then, she complained about why Chu Yu and Gu Yan didn't bring her to watch the game...

Chu Yu had no choice but to prevaricate her by saying such things as not to affect her comic creation.

But all in all........

The early morning phone call also made Chu Yu's lips feel dry.

And in the end...... But when he opened Weixin every day, he discovered that Gu Yan had sent him a few messages an hour ago.

The content of the message was that she had returned to her hometown safely, and by the way, she took a few photos of the scenery of her hometown and sent them to Chu Yu.

In the photo, the place where Gu Yan was located was covered in snow, and there was heavy snowfall. In the photo, besides the snow scene, Gu Yan's figure also appeared in it.

In the photo, there is a thin layer of snow on her head, and the mist exhaled between her mouth and nose is also photographed. The corners of her mouth are smiling lightly, her white teeth are exposed, and her eyes are crescent-shaped...

It looks much more lively and beautiful than usual.

After Chu Yu glanced at it for a few times, he decided not to look at it.

He sighed.

As Gu Yan said, he didn't think it was weird at all when Gu Yan sent him messages about what he did every day, but today, after just looking at Gu Yan's photos, he felt weird in his heart. of.

"Forget it, let's draw manga......"

Originally, the manga manuscripts for this period of time have already been drawn, but Chu Yu has nothing to do, so he can only find something for himself, so as to save him from thinking about it all day long.

.......

Time passed day by day, and a week later, it was time for the New Year in Longguo.

For Chu Yu, he still chooses to stay in Shanghai this year. Anyway, whether he is going home for the New Year or staying in Shanghai, he is alone, there is no difference, and he has to fly back to Los Angeles. To be honest, he is not very good at that thing. like.

As for Gu Yan, after talking to him, the frequency of communicating with him on Weixin has become more and more frequent. Although Chu Yu really hopes that Gu Yan will treat him as a friend, but it seems... ...People don't think so, at least, a few years ago, Chu Yu also received the special products from his hometown that Gu Yan mailed to him.

Chu Yu now only hopes that Gu Yan is an impatient person... After a long time, he will give up his thoughts on him, and it is good for the two of them to be ordinary friends like this...

As for the fans of Chu Yu in Longguo, the matter between him and Gu Yan was forgotten within a few days.

Natsume's Account of Friends has been serialized for a year and a half now, and Natsume fans are used to watching a new chapter of this work every week.

Moreover, the booklet of this work has now been released to the fifth volume, and now the total sales volume of this work in Longguo has reached 710 million copies, and the average sales volume of the volume is 140 million copies.

Chu Yu is still satisfied with this achievement. After all, the serialization time of Natsume's Account of Friends is not long. As the serialization time becomes longer, the sales volume of each volume will continue to increase, and the number of fans of the work will gradually accumulate. This year The average sales volume of Natsume's Book of Friends is less than 150 million. By next year, it should not be a problem to increase the average sales of Natsume's Book of Friends by hundreds of thousands.

At the same time, although Initial D has only been serialized for about half a year, but according to what Li Xi said, the comic book release of Initial D is also planned, and even the animation adaptation of Initial D... .It is said that there are four or five animation production companies interested in buying the copyright......but Chu Yu is not very interested in these things, professional things can be left to professional people to do, Li Xi as his The editor will naturally help him deal with these things.

2Chapter 17 New Year

However, Chu Yu was slightly relieved that the royalties from the first four volumes of Natsume's Book of Friends had been credited to his account one after another.

The sales volume of the first four volumes was 610 million, based on the price of 25, 900% of the share, and after tax deduction, the money transferred to his account was more than [-] million.

And this... just half a year's sales royalties have already surpassed all other income from Chu Yu's past career as a cartoonist...

Coupled with Chu Yu's remuneration for simultaneously serializing two works on Xuan Gui... In January 2022, Chu Yu officially became a rich man with tens of millions of cash.

Although there are a lot of rich people in Hemodu, but considering that Chu Yu is only 20 years old and a sophomore in college...if you put aside those who have mines at home, at least among your peers, Chu Yu's ability to make money is already at the top of the pyramid.

Moreover, the two works of [-] Centimeters Per Second and Voice of the Stars are still spreading wildly on the Internet. It is estimated that the influence of the two works will gradually weaken in a week or two.

Now, judging from the 900 million views of 600 Centimeters per Second and the 1000 million views of Voice of the Stars on the entire network, even if the views of the two works stop at this moment and do not increase, then the two works After the works are broadcast and sold on the Internet, they will be shared with Huang Ming. At this time, only about [-] million Longguo coins will be distributed to Chu Yu from the broadcast volume of the two works.

But these two works are now in a hot period, and the number of broadcasts will definitely continue to grow. Counting various overseas copyright sales and peripheral sales... Maybe Chu Yu will eventually learn from these two works. Conservatively, the income obtained in this work will be more than 3000 to [-] million.
