"membership service?"

A lady clerk I knew quietly asked me if I knew there would be Member’s Day next, and there might be “special services” at that time.

I asked her the time, she thought about it, and said it hadn't been decided yet.

"But I will definitely tell you!" She said, "Whoever calls the member here..."

Before she finished speaking, she covered her mouth and smiled mysteriously.

I joked with her for several minutes, but I couldn't ask the second half of the sentence.

I applied for a membership card in Wuyu very early on. Although Wu Yue came here and said that it was impossible, I still firmly believe that this is her problem.

I asked Ning Qing about this matter, but before she finished speaking, her eyes drifted a little, and in the end she could only look at me resentfully.

"What, what's wrong?"

"fine."

It's alright……

But I always feel that she is forcing a smile.

I didn't take this matter too seriously, because the data of "You Banquet" came out.

To our surprise, apart from the sales volume, the word-of-mouth of the first issue of Youyan is also very good. Except for some offline purchases and no feedback, the other data look very beautiful!

Editor-in-Chief Zhou even joked to us that there would be no Youyan without Zuo Yinghou, and I think so.

Another thing that makes me feel proud is that most of the more than 80% of the positive comments mentioned the cover of Youyan.

Words like "stunning" seem to be completely unable to describe the fanatic fans' love for it. Coupled with the crazy Amway of Ningqing fans, Youyan's cover can be regarded as a real hit.

The planning has already begun to plan the second issue, and even the third issue.The themes are respectively "Future Fantasy" and "Ancient Fantasy", and there is a faint meaning of publishing a set of magazines together with the previous "Fantasy of Another World".

Now that Youyan's reputation has spread, it's easier to find an illustrator.Unfortunately, Ning Qing is not very good at these two aspects. In addition, the recent schedule is not available, so we did not continue to cooperate.

But I don't regret it anymore, the popularity of the first issue of the banquet alone is enough to make me happy for a long time.

When Wu Yue heard about this, she jumped and asked me to treat her to dinner.

I said I didn't get the bonus again.

Wu Yue: "Then I don't care, this is a good thing, only when there is an exit will there be an entry!"

I couldn't turn her around, so I had to send a message to Ning Qing first.

The news of Ning Qing's reply came soon, she only sent an ok gesture, and didn't say much.

Wu Yue and I made an appointment at the barbecue restaurant next to Wuyu, and we were enjoying our meal. Wu Yue took a big gulp of beer and put the cup on the table with a snap.

"Cool!!!"

I took a sip, picked up a slice of sizzling meat, let it cool down a bit, then dipped it in the special barbecue sauce of this restaurant, rolled up the chopsticks, and stuffed it into my mouth——

Cool! ! !

"Are you guys going to be busy again?"

Wu Yue whimpered while eating, and it seemed that his tongue was scalded by the meat.

"Yeah." I answered her after chewing, "Youyan is planning the second phase, and I heard that another famous illustrator has been hired."

"Aren't you looking for Ning Qing?"

"She's not free." I said helplessly, "I can't tie someone up to do a full-time job. Qingwen's manuscript fee is not high, and it's not as much as the game's original painting."

"That's not true." Wu Yue sighed as he ate, "Our business is not doing well, do you know that all the houses in the area above have been robbed?"

I froze for a moment: "When?"

"It's just a few days." Wu Yue snorted lightly, "What are you talking about to build a planning area and build a complex? It's a pilot project. I don't know which big company will buy it all, madman."

"You'll either make a lot of money or lose your pants," I said. "Stay out of real estate, you'll be unlucky."

"They do this because they want to buy out. If they lose too much, everyone won't make any money and will perish." Wu Yue took a sip of wine, "Forget it, let's not talk about it. Qiuqiu, your birthday Is it coming?"

I nodded.

Wu Yue flipped through the calendar, his face collapsed: "I was on a business trip, and I bumped into it."

That was really unfortunate. I said without sincerity, "Remember to prepare presents." "

"You bastard!"

I asked curiously, "What's wrong with your intermediary?"

Wu Yue: "The boss said to go to the next city to exchange customers."

Me: "...your boss is quite interesting."

Wu Yue didn't bother to agree with me.

Talking about asking me to treat guests, Wu Yue finally paid for his meal.

She asked me what gift I wanted in advance, and I let her think for herself, Wu Yue stuck out her tongue and said that if she had money, she would send me champagne.

I suddenly remembered the joke she made before.

It's still a long way off, but if there's a wedding—

"Pfft."

What am I thinking.

Ning Qing couldn't bear the bombardment of Party A's news, so she made a one-month schedule to draw game illustrations for them.

Since the last banquet became popular, her reputation has grown a lot.

This is a good thing, but correspondingly, there are more acquaintances to build relationships with.There is a family here who is a real "acquaintance", and they are involved in their anniversary celebrations, and they are begged by others. Ning Qing is a bit uncomfortable to refuse.

She originally wanted to leave this month to Yu Qiu, but after she calmed down, she realized that there was really no need for it.

Not to mention that both of them have to work, it is impossible to get tired of being together all the time, unless there is a mine at home these days, who can devote 100% of their time and energy to chasing people?

Furthermore, she is also short of money, and the conditions of Ning Qing's family are average, so she is relatively well developed.In addition to living and accommodation, she also needs to save money for her wife, and Wuyu can't be limited to the present. If there is a need for expansion in the future, it will cost more.

When money is mentioned, she gets dizzy. Obviously, she didn't start this business for money, but her interest was wiped out to the point where only money can give her a little motivation.

If only fishing could make money.

Ning Qing thought with a wooden face.

In this way, she must fish every day and never rest.

"Drip!"

Ning Qing paused the wrist holding the pen, put the passive pen on the table casually, and took the mobile phone.

[Youqiu]: I have a dinner date with Wu Yue tonight!You remember to eat!

【Autumn】:【Cat holding heart.jpg】

Ning Qing blinked, only to realize that it was almost night.

She hasn't had lunch yet, and she has been drawing since she got up, and her stomach is growling a little.

Ning Qing thought for a while, and casually made an emoji.

【Don’t be muddy】：【OK.jpg】

Then I threw myself into the business of drafting.

Anyway, there is one last point for the line draft, and it’s not too late to eat after drawing.

After Yu Qiu returned home, she found that Ning Qing's bedroom door was closed.

She quietly walked over on tiptoe, unscrewed the handle, and saw Ning Qing was wearing earphones, her hair was tied up, and the tip of the pen fell on the paper-like film, making a rustling sound.

It may be because of a good understanding, or it may be that the smell of barbecue brought by Yu Qiu is too fragrant.

Ning Qing took off the earphones and turned to look.

Yu Qiu pawed at the crack of the door and looked at her half-faced.

Coincidentally, her stomach growled.

Ning Qing: ...

Yu Qiu: ...

Yu Qiu said unhappily: "You draw manuscripts and don't eat!"

Ning Qing: "I was wrong!"

Yu Qiu: ...

Dude, that's a really quick answer.

Could it be that you have already planned to deal with me like this?
