The team building time of the publishing house is set at the beginning of September, which is the time when the summer heat in Spring City is fading away.

The newly appointed editor-in-chief Zhang is an old man with glasses who is half bald. He is cheerful all day long and has a good personality.

At this moment, he was standing on the bus rented by the publishing house with a small horn, holding a small book and calling names: "Tangyuan? Has the Tangyuan arrived?"

The glutinous rice balls swallowed the jelly in their mouths, and raised a hand: "Here, editor-in-chief, I'm here."

Editor-in-chief Zhang gestured on the paper with a pen: "Have all your authors arrived yet?"

Tangyuan took another piece of jelly, sucked the jelly into his mouth, nodded his head: "It's all here."

Qiaoqiao, who was sitting next to her, took out a tissue and handed it to the glutinous rice balls. Before Editor Zhang could ask, she said, "I've got everything here, too."

Editor-in-Chief Zhang nodded, and then looked at the editors sitting on the other side: "Big Cat, instant noodles and eleven, how about you?"

The big cat was tapping on the phone, and scratched his forehead when he heard the words: "I'm one more short, on the way here, it will take about 10 minutes."

Editor-in-Chief Zhang touched his bare forehead, skipped the instant noodles on the phone and looked at Shi Yi: "Eleven?"

Shi Yi was staring out the window, the bread in his mouth was bulging: "Here we are, we are outside."

Tang Yuan was a little excited: "Is it Teacher Shi Qian?"

Shi Yi took another bite of the bread, deliberately teasing her: "Guess?"

Tang Yuan stood up angrily, staring at the car door: "Hmph, I won't guess, I'll just look."

So when Shi Jin got into the car, she received Tang Yuan's burning gaze.

Shi Jin: ...

He paused slightly, his eyes hesitated: "Am I... late?"

Tangyuan blinked her eyes twice: "You're not late, I just got up to check."

They agreed on a departure time of nine o'clock, and now it's only 08:30, so it's not too late.

Shi Yi stuffed the last bite of bread into his mouth: "Here, here."

Shi Jin pursed her lips and walked to Shi Yi's side.

Shi Yi was busy hugging away the snacks on the seat. While stuffing snacks into his backpack, he looked at Shijin's luggage: "That's all you brought? We're going for three days."

Shi Jin didn't bring a suitcase, and only carried a backpack in one hand. The simple style looks like it can hold several sets of clothes.

Shi Jin sat down on the empty seat: "Enough."

He doesn't have many things, all he needs to bring is a change of clothes.

"Okay." Shi Yi nodded: "If you have anything missing, just come to me. I basically bring everything, and it's all new."

"Thank you."

Shi Yi smiled: "What are you being polite about?"

Tang Yuan, who had been secretly watching from the sidelines, finally found a chance to interject. She cleared her throat and picked up a random topic: "Brother Eleven, how many authors did you bring this time?"

"Don't you know?" Although Shi Yi was a little puzzled, he still replied: "There were originally five, but neither Qiuqiu nor coffee was available, so only three came."

"Oh, that's it." Tang Yuan nodded, and immediately shifted her gaze to Shi Jin's body, her eyes rolled around: "Mr. Shi Qian, don't you feel hot wearing so many clothes?"

"Shi Qian?"

A head poked out from the seat in front, and a pair of raised fox eyes accurately landed on Shi Jin: "You are Shi Qian?"

She tilted her head, stroked the hair on her forehead with her right hand, and said with a smile, "You look really good-looking."

Shi Jin raised her eyes and met hers: "Thank you, you too."

The instant noodles who finished the phone call came over: "Little fox, what are you talking about?"

The woman in the front seat turned back, only to hear her laughing voice: "I had a friendly exchange of compliments with Teacher Shi Qian."

After hearing the words, Instant Noodles turned around and stroked her chubby belly: "The little fox did not say anything wrong, if her words are not pleasant, I will apologize for her."

Shi Jin shook her head slightly: "No, I just said hello."

Instant noodles felt relieved, he didn't drive anyway, so he didn't go back to his seat, but stood in the aisle between the seats, chatting with Shi Yi casually.

Tang Yuan held her chin, her round eyes stared at Shi Jin without blinking: "Mr. Shi Qian, did Brother Eleven tell you about our itinerary this time?"

......schedule?

Shi Jin pursed her lips slightly, a little hesitant: "...hot spring?"

"Pfft—" Tangyuan couldn't help laughing out, "He told you that?"

"Hey, hello." Shi Yi felt a little guilty: "I'm not wrong, there is indeed a hot spring in the place we went, where did I say wrong?"

"That's right, you're right." Tangyuan suppressed a smile and nodded in agreement: "There are indeed hot springs, and you can indeed soak in hot springs."

"But Mr. Shi Qian, I suggest you better not go."

Shi Jin paused slightly as he fastened his seat belt: "Is there any problem?"

Tangyuan rubbed her chin, thinking about how to explain it: "Well... this..."

The big cat in the back seat poked its head over and smiled wickedly: "Because that hot spring is a well-known holy place for romantic encounters in the local area, it's not easy to get out after entering."

The little fox became interested, she turned around, put her head on the back of the chair, and blinked her fox eyes: "Why? Even if it's a holy place for an affair, you should pay attention to your love and my wish, why can't you come out? ?”

Instant noodles smiled: "This is also a local custom, you will know it when you go there."

"Hello? Hello." Editor-in-Chief Zhang tested it with a small speaker, and then sat in the front seat of the bus: "Okay everyone, we are ready to go, everyone sit back in your seat."

Several editors then returned to their positions.

Shi Jin was slightly relieved.

Shi Yi dug out an unopened bottle of water from his bag and handed it to Shi Jin: "They are famous chatterers in the publishing house, better than me. Don't be cautious, just do whatever you want."

"Thank you." Shi Jin took the water bottle, the corners of her lips curved slightly: "Well, everyone is very enthusiastic."

Shi Yi took out a chocolate bar and tore open the package: "Do you want to eat it?"

Shi Jin shook his head, so he clicked and took a bite: "Anyway, the journey is long, so let me give you an overview of the arrangements. This time we are going to City B next to Spring City, a total of three days."

Shi Yi glanced at the phone: "Let's start now, and we should arrive at [-]:[-] pm. Today's arrangement is to have free activities in the afternoon, and have a barbecue in the villa in the evening. In the next few days, you can have free activities or go out in groups. It depends on the individual, anyway. All expenses will be reimbursed, and there is no need to save money for the publishing house."

He said this in a louder voice, and the editor-in-chief Zhang who was sitting not far in front looked over with a smile: "Eleventh, I heard your abacus from the front of the car."

Shi Yi didn't panic at all, and looked back with a smile: "This is all thanks to you, the editor-in-chief. You have applied for such a large sum of funds for us, so I have to plan carefully and try not to waste your hard work."

Editor-in-Chief Zhang smiled and pointed at Shi Yi: "You, you are the monkey spirit."

Tangyuan blinked her eyes, and raised her hand pretendingly: "Editor-in-Chief, can we apply for a seafood feast?"

Qiaoqiao held a lollipop in her mouth: "Second, I want to eat lobster."

Instant Noodles rubbed his belly and said with a smile: "Same as above, but I don't ask too much, as long as I have abalone."

The big cat rubbed its chin: "Tacky, what lobster and abalone, my request is very simple, just some tuna king crab."

Editor-in-Chief Zhang pretended to be angry, and blew on his deliberately long mustache: "There is no abalone and big lobster, but the charcoal-grilled old man does have it. Would you like to have a bite?"

Tangyuan wrinkled her nose delicately: "Editor-in-chief, your meat quality is not very good, why don't you forget it."

The little fox couldn't hold back, and laughed directly: "Puff."

It is said that laughter is contagious, so her smile directly inspired other people, and the car suddenly burst into laughter, which was very lively.

Shi Yi rubbed his smiling cheeks, and was about to turn his head to say a word to Shi Jin, when he found that the eyes of the person beside him were slightly closed, with a quiet expression, as if he had fallen asleep.

Shi Yi relaxed his movements, carefully took out a blanket from his bag to cover him, and thoughtfully lowered the air volume of the air conditioner above his head.

"Hey."

Shi Yi was startled by the sound, he raised his head, only to realize that the little fox who was sitting in the front seat had turned around at some point, with his delicate chin resting on the back of the chair, his naturally upturned eyes were curious. Staring at him: "You treat him so well, don't you like him?"

"Bah bah." Shi Yi quickly denied: "I like girls, so don't talk nonsense."

"Then why are you so kind to him?" The little fox tilted his head in confusion: "I heard from Instant Noodles that you are very kind to Shi Qian, and you wish to do everything yourself. If you don't like him, why worry about it?" so many?"

Since you don't like it, wouldn't it be easier to just focus on work?

Just like she and Instant Noodles, although the two of them have a good chat, they have only intersected at work, and basically keep their distance in life, and do not cross the boundaries of each other.

So she has been curious since the last time she heard about instant noodles.

Shi Yi's thoughts were not so devious, he said in dismay: "There are so many reasons, I am friends with him, shouldn't I be nice to him?"

The little fox didn't speak.

Shi Yi then took out a jelly and handed it to her, and seeing that she had picked it up, he smiled and said, "I have known Shi Qian since elementary school. Isn't it worthwhile for me to treat him well after more than ten years of friendship?"

The little fox held the jelly, looked at him thoughtfully, and then moved his gaze to the sleeping young man's face.

The young man's cold white face was hidden under a black mask, and his jet-black hair fell down on his forehead, only his long eyelashes were lightly closed.

There is no doubt that this is a very good face.

The little fox looked away: "But Shi Qian doesn't seem to regard you as a friend."

Shi Yi was not angry either: "How do you say that?"

"He has always been indifferent, with no expression." The little fox thought for a while: "I heard what you said just now, basically you said a lot, and then he kept saying thank you to you."

"Shouldn't you be so polite among friends?"

"Everyone has a different personality."

Shi Yi explained: "He is not considered cold anymore. You must know that when I was at the same table with him in elementary school, I said a hundred words to him, and it was considered a face for him to reply."

"Tell him a hundred words and ignore you?" The little fox stared at Shi Yi in shock: "Then how did you manage to keep talking to him even if he ignored you?"

If it was her, if the other party did not reply after more than three sentences, it would be basically impossible for her to continue the conversation.

Shi Yi scratched his head and smiled: "At that time, I couldn't bear to talk, I couldn't sit still in class, so I wanted to talk to someone, and the more he ignored me, the more I wanted to talk to him."

The little fox looked admiringly: "Then you are really good."

Shi Yi touched his nose, but said nothing.

In fact, there is one more thing he didn't say.
