For the rest of his life

Chapter 76 Week 5: Delay [***] OK

I made dumplings for lunch.

Xu Chenmu wanted to do it on the spur of the moment, as if he was used to living in the kitchen, he looked around a few times.

Lu Qiong gently caressed her head and smiled. She looked like a gentle woman, but for some reason, she couldn't see any hope in that woman's eyes. But there was still, because of this embers-like light, she was about to overflow with joy in her heart, she thought that she must have cared about that woman before she lost her memory.She wanted the memory to slowly return to her body as if she had found a home.

Farewell, don't let her loose hair begin to wash her hands slowly, thought for a while, clapped her hands together, opened the refrigerator to see what could be used as dumpling stuffing, when someone knocked on the door suddenly, she After a pause, she picked up two sticks of celery and went out, opened the door, a face suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, she frowned, and was about to close the door.

"Hey, Miss Xu, what are you doing like this? I'm here to look for Lu Qiong, is Lu Qiong there?" The person came with a baby face, a mustache, and a round cap, with a hand pressing on it, lest it be blown away—it was windy again today, there was a silver-white ring on the little finger of that hand, looking down, wearing a camel coat, looking like a well-behaved person, looking at himself——

Is this an edit?Lu Qiong delayed the manuscript and refused to hand it in, so he had to drive him away by himself.

Xu Chen wondered why he had to indulge Lu Qiong's bad habit...

"Who is Lu Qiong?" Xu Chenmu looked at her expressionlessly, "Who are you?"

"..." The editor was stunned for a moment, "Well, she is very good-looking, so tall." He gestured his hand to his eyebrows, "A woman who looks very indifferent should be in the same room with you... "

"I haven't seen it before. You came to the wrong place." Xu Chenmu was about to close the door as he said that, Lu Qiong was not as high as he said, isn't this nonsense!Although he was slandering him, he still sided with Lu Qiong in his heart.

In a trance, with scattered lamps and shadows, Lu Qiong faced the computer and typed out words one by one, and deleted them one by one. Changing the manuscript, this is a scene that has been accumulated over the years, as if a camera was placed in the room to record the past of the room for decades, and then quickly swipe through, and see the years piled up in front of the eyes, the memory confused a lot Chen Mu, she leaned against the door frame and looked at the other party coldly, and swallowed the image of Lu Qiong on the tip of her tongue before she dared to swallow it back and save it. She thought she wanted to remember Lu Qiong, but for some reason she didn't.

"Hey, I'm not wrong, are you sure you're not here?"

There was a little more sympathy in that person's eyes, and Xu Chenmu keenly caught it. She snorted coldly: "Are you annoying?" She put on a look of nostrils, thinking that it would be good to drive him away. , waved the stick of celery in his hand, and almost handed it over to coax people away.

Xiaoyuan blushed again and again in shock: "Impossible, how could Lu Qiong break up with you in a critical moment, no, the Lu Qiong I know is not like this—"

So Lu Qiong's image among the crowd is as noble as a saint?With the integrity of a literati?Or something else, she looked at the man with a cold face, but secretly thought in her heart that if she put it in, she could understand more or less——

But Lu Qiong delayed the manuscript... Lu Qiong will be very difficult to put the man in...

Is Lu Qiong a person who can delay manuscripts...?Is it right to deceive the editor like this?She frowned and shook her body: "Are you finished? I told you that I don't know—" She was about to slam the door, but the little round face squeezed over and blocked it, refusing to leave, approaching her a lot Suddenly, she was so close to a man, her face turned livid immediately, she stepped back, swung the celery, and forced Xiaoyuan's face back a little.

"Xu Chenmu, Xu Chenmu! You see, I know you. Anyway, even if Lu Qiong isn't here, I can come in and have a seat, right?" Xiaoyuan wiped the sweat from his face, and he thought he could get in with a little shame Let's see if it was really Lu Qiong who abandoned her when Xu Chenmu was in danger, or if the two of them reached a consensus and lied to themselves that Lu Qiong was not there.

"There are a lot of people who know me. Didn't I still say that I am the most beautiful reporter in the newspapers and TV media? With a big face—" Xu Chenmu subconsciously refuted like this, but he was stunned. Where is the most beautiful reporter?When do you give yourself a title?It would be fine if it was given by someone else, but it would be embarrassing if it was given by me shamelessly.For a while, I felt a bit uneasy, but I still have to be tough and follow Lu Qiong's will. I don't do anything at home today. Naturally, the work delivered by Lu Qiong must be completed with quality and quantity.

"Ah...? You...you remember it all? No wonder...Lu Qiong still left you...I knew she meant it...but I didn't expect you to remember it so quickly...but don't you know me? Why don't you remember me?" Xiaoyuan's face became anxious for a moment, he didn't expect Lu Qiong to break up with Xu Chenmu, when Xu Chenmu's memory was just beginning to emerge, it seemed that Lu Qiong was really taken She has suffered enough, that's why she can't wait. Also, everyone thinks it's a miracle that a lonely person like Lu Qiong can take care of a semi-disabled person, and it's not easy to persist for such a long time...

For a moment, he sighed endlessly, and looked at Xu Chenmu with a hint of sadness. Since Xu Chenmu has recovered his memory here, he doesn't need to be entangled here. In this way, Xu Chenmu must have some complaints , Lu Qiong abandoned her, and said that he didn't know her—the editor with a round face gave himself a round-faced explanation, and his heart sank more and more that love could not last long, no wonder he always adhered to the single principle.

But Xu Chenmu was quite upset, Lu Qiong had already meant this?Who are you, how can you know what Lu Qiong means?Lu Qiong will never leave me, she promised herself... Wait a minute, when did she promise?The colorful memories in her mind gathered together for a while, but she couldn't find a clue. She looked at the little round face silently for a while, happy for a while, worried for a while, and cast a sympathetic look at herself after a while.

Clearing her throat, she began to pick celery leaves, which could be used to make soup, but it was no longer good after being waved by herself, so she had to take them off, held them in her left hand, and said as if she didn't care: "Why? Speaking of which, it is enough to remember some things, and there is no need to remember many things, as long as you have the ability to take care of yourself, Lu Qiong is not here, if you have any urgent matters, go find her elsewhere, I will cook."

"Then, Lu Qiong left here, right? I can't get in touch with her, I—what did she say when she left? Is there any manuscript left here?" He was so anxious that he wanted to grab Xu Chenmu's hand. Sleeve, but Xu Chenmu thought he was going to push him in, so he hid back in fright, pushed the door shut, and shut him out.

"..." Xiao Yuanlian patted the door, "It's reasonable, I'm just here to press the manuscript!"

"But she's not here! It's useless for you to look for me, right?" The last sentence was nonsense, Xu Chenmu thought silently, clenched his fist in his left hand, with a celery leaf in his palm, pressed on the door, and locked the door, " If you do that again, I'll sue you for harassment..."

The little editor is a little pitiful... She suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, opened the door, and the little round face looked at her dully: "I'm sorry..."

"...It's okay, don't come here to look for Lu Qiong in the future." Xu Chenmu blushed, she thought how could she lie for Lu Qiong who delayed the manuscript, and she will definitely go to Lu Qiong for an explanation later, so she calmed down , whispered in the most gentle tone of my life, "She used to go to wherever she used to go to find her, didn't she?"

The little editor nodded, turned and left.

Xu Chenmu looked at his back and felt a little uneasy, thinking that it would not be easy for people to come to urge the manuscript. Lu Qiong delayed the manuscript here, and the editor was layered with leadership, just like himself. Those at the bottom of the chain are layer upon layer of directors and leaders. Those who have face and weight are never known to outsiders, and reporters are pushed directly in front of the public and in front of the audience and readers. ——It seems that the editor was pushed directly in front of the author, and as soon as the author shied away, he was pushed in front of the readers for questioning.

Everyone is a person who lives at the bottom of various chains and accepts the most direct consequences. She has some empathy, but she also knows that it is absolutely impossible to have any empathy in this world. It just seems to be connected to some places. Where is she? Thinking of my own career—but there is no way, even if it is at the bottom, someone has to do it, and I have to do it even at the risk of swords and flames.

Before she joined the job, she always used Lu Xun's words to encourage herself. Now that she thinks about it, she is a little stubborn and naive in it, but there must always be some light in her heart, and the darkness of life will not overwhelm everything. Whether or not I can remember my profession, whether I can still have a huge sense of honor for this thankless profession is another matter——

Lu Xun said: "Since ancient times, we have had people who worked hard, some who worked hard, some who pleaded for the people, and some who sacrificed their lives to seek the law... Although it is the so-called 'official history' for the genealogy of emperors and generals, , and often cannot hide their brilliance, this is the backbone of China."

Thinking that she is also the person who is the backbone, she has a sense of professional honor. She straightened her back but remembered that she always hunched over inadvertently. When she hunched, Lu Qiong would pat her on the back made her stand up--

Suddenly there was a force coming from the back of the waist.

"Don't hunch your back." Lu Qiong said, and Tan hand closed the door and locked it, pulled her left wrist back, and sniffed, the aroma of celery.

Xu Chenmu suddenly remembered the height when the little round face compared Lu Qiong's height. It turned out that the little round face was not lying. Lu Qiong was really this tall. Although she was not much taller than herself, she still held herself firmly in her arms. curled up.

Her face was burning brightly, and she raised her face: "You dragged the manuscript and kicked out the editor—"

"Yes." Lu Qiong admitted frankly like this, let her go, looked at the celery she was carrying, always wanted to laugh, the corners of her mouth moved, but she didn't laugh out loud, "You don't know me—"

"I know you, I know you... I will know you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, this has no logical relationship with your delay... This is not the reason for delay..." Xu Chenmu thought that he was full of confidence , but this confidence was more or less weak, and I don't know where in my memory I understood Lu Qiong's difficulties, so I silently fought against heaven and man and pushed Lu Qiong from my own line to the opponent's line, thinking for a long time No matter how reluctant he was, he pulled back to his front line. He didn't know what to say, so he went into the kitchen with a dull head. Not long after, there was the sound of washing vegetables.
