That night, Sun Quan stayed in a hotel. He didn't wake up until midnight the next morning. When he woke up, he still had a headache from a hangover.
Yes, he was drunk last night. There were so many people drinking together. Several women, relying on their status as women, could legitimately drink less. They could even toast the men wantonly and say openly: "I drink."
One bite and you’re done!”
As a successful person recognized by everyone at the table, many people raised their glasses to toast him. No, it was because Sun Quan had tried his best to control himself and drink as little as possible.
But in the end it was inevitable that he would be outnumbered, and the outcome was just as he had expected, and he could not drive home.
I could only find a hotel nearby to stay with the help of others.
After waking up, Sun Quan lay in bed for a while before getting up with a wry smile and getting dressed.
After thinking about it, he took off his clothes again, went into the bathroom and took a shower. When he came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he felt more energetic and his head didn't seem to be so bloated.
This hotel is of decent quality and there is even a computer in the room.
Sun Quan was not in a hurry to go home, turned on his computer and climbed to the starting point.
On the monthly vote list, his "Sword of God Killing in the Clouds" has actually made it to the top, and it is still ranked ninth.
He smiled.
I feel quite proud.
You must know that the starting point monthly vote list these days is very valuable. Looking at it, almost all the great gods on the list are at their peak, and their fighting power is by no means the cowardice they will be after ten or eight years.
Do not believe?
Let’s take a look at which books are at the top of the monthly ticket list this month!
The first place was Tomato's "Pan Dragon", the second place was "The Immortal" by Playing Fish, the third place was "Douluo" by San Shao, the fourth place was "The Realm of Immortality" by Chen Dong, the fifth place
, Shenji’s "Dragon and Snake"...
Looking at it, the top ten on the monthly ticket list are all the great ones in Sun Quan's memory.
To be honest, seeing so many great people on the list, Sun Quan felt a little guilty.
But his fighting spirit is still strong, because he knows very well that the writer's profession is like sailing against the current. If he does not advance, he will retreat.
Now that he has joined this profession, as long as he wants to stand out, he must fight against the great masters in his memory. Besides, it is not like he has never fought against these great masters in his previous two books.
"Ring of the Immortal Dragon" has even won the championship several times.
The difference is that these great gods on the list are stronger now.
But why hasn't Sun Quan become stronger?
"The God-killing Sword in the Clouds" has become much more powerful than his previous two books since its release.
It can be said that "The God-Slaying Sword in the Cloud" is also his pinnacle work after his rebirth.
Everyone is at their peak, what is there to be afraid of?
What's more, none of the works on the list are new books that have been released this month. In comparison, my own book "The Sword of Gods in the Clouds" has just been released this month, which is the time when I can show my sharpness.
Thinking of this, Sun Quan suddenly sighed. He felt that the time he chose to publish the book before was a bit unconsidered. Otherwise, if he could put it on the shelves at the beginning of a month, his new book would not be competing for the monthly votes list in the first month after it was put on the shelves.
It seems so difficult.
He can ignore the new books on the new book monthly ticket list that have been blessed by the double monthly ticket event, but the works of these great masters in the top ten of the monthly ticket list have also been blessed by the double monthly ticket event, and he, Sun Quan, dares not to ignore them
In your eyes?
There should be no hope for the top three or even the top five in this month’s overall list.
He was regretting that he had not calculated the time to publish the book carefully, when his cell phone suddenly rang.
I took out my cell phone and saw that it was my wife.
"Hello? Leader, what are your instructions?"
As soon as the phone call came through, he started to flatter me.
Yuan Shuiqing: "Were you drunk last night?"
On the phone, her tone was quite casual, as if she was asking casually.
Sun Quan didn't hide anything, "Well, two fists can't beat four hands, and a tiger can't defeat a pack of wolves. Wife, I've embarrassed you."
Yuan Shuiqing: "..."
After a moment of silence, Yuan Shuiqing said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. What about tigers? Sick cats are more like it! Okay, I still want to play with Xinxin and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. I have something to tell you.
Oh, by the way, you haven’t gone home yet, have you?”
Sun Quan: "No, I just woke up and I'm getting ready to come back. What's wrong? Do you need me to buy something and bring it back?"
Yuan Shuiqing: "No! I just received a call from Huo Yiyi. She said she wanted to come out to relax and come to our place for a few days. She should have boarded the plane by this time. If you haven't gone home yet, don't leave first.
I'm in a hurry to come back. You drove the car out. Just wait for a while and then drive to the airport to pick her up! Is that okay? "
"Huo Yiyi is coming?"
Sun Quan was surprised.
Of course he remembered Huo Yiyi, she was the beauty next door to his villa in Shanghai. When Yuan Shuiqing's amniotic fluid broke last year, he happened to go to Sha Lun's appointment and was not at home. Fortunately, Huo Yiyi was a guest in his villa at the time, and also fortunately she
She had a car, so she helped drive her own car that day and rushed his wife Yuan Shuiqing to the hospital.
The situation at that time was urgent. If Huo Yiyi hadn't helped, the consequences would have been hard to predict.
Therefore, Sun Quan and Yuan Shuiqing are very grateful to Huo Yiyi.
In Sun Quan's mind, Huo Yiyi was the benefactor of his daughter Sun Jiexin and Sun Quan. He owed family favors.
Yuan Shuiqing: "Well, she's coming by plane. It shouldn't take long. You can drive there after taking a rest! Don't wait for her to get off the plane. You haven't arrived at the airport yet."
Sun Quan nodded, "Yes, I know, okay! No problem, leave this matter to me! Don't worry!"
If Huo Yiyi wanted to be a guest, Sun Quan would not hesitate.
Maybe he is not very enthusiastic in dealing with people, and he may have some minor flaws in his personality, but gratitude is one of his strengths.
This has been the case since he was a child. He will always remember the kindness others do to him and always think about when he can repay the other person.
After finishing the phone call with Yuan Shuiqing, Sun Quan did not listen to Yuan Shuiqing and rest in the hotel before leaving. Instead, he immediately turned off the computer, got up, tidied up, and went downstairs.
rest……
Where can't you rest? It's not too late to get to the airport first and then rest. Yuan Shuiqing said something on the phone just now, and he agreed with it in his heart.
——Don’t wait for him to get off the plane, he is still on his way to the airport.
In that case, it would be neglect.
…
On a plane.
Huo Yiyi looked at the white clouds outside the window and the blue sky, and there seemed to be a melancholy atmosphere lingering between her eyebrows.
This made her already delicate face look even more beautiful and charming.
After a long time, she sighed softly and closed her eyes slightly tiredly.
…
Airport.
At the airport pick-up gate, Sun Quan did not hold up a sign, but stretched his neck to look at the aisle in front. He and Huo Yiyi knew each other, and it was not the first time they met. Of course, they did not need to hold up a sign like other people picking up the airport.
, with Huo Yiyi’s name written on it.
After a while, the bridge disappeared.
Sun Quan finally saw Huo Yiyi. Today, Huo Yiyi was dressed quite simply. She wore blue jeans that were washed white and were slightly loose. She wore a white T-shirt on her upper body and a short black leather jacket on her face.
Wearing sunglasses, she was dragging a small black suitcase in her hand.
"Hi! Miss Huo! Miss Huo! This way! This way..."
Sun Quan quickly waved to her and called.
Huo Yiyi was already looking at the crowd picking up the plane. When she heard someone calling her name, she glanced over here and saw Sun Quan waving vigorously. She smiled and raised her hand to take off the sunglasses on her face.
, slightly speeding up the pace and walking towards this side.
"Mr. Sun, long time no see! Sorry to bother you."
Walking closer, Huo Yiyi stretched out her hand to shake it. Sun Quan smiled and shook her hand, "Miss Huo is so polite! Shui Qing and I are very happy that you can come to play. Come! Give me the box and let's talk as we walk.
!”
"Thanks!"
When Sun Quan took her suitcase, Huo Yiyi thanked her, and while walking out with Sun Quan, she said, "You still said I was too polite? What did you call me just now? Miss Huo? Oh, otherwise,
Let’s all be casual! You call me Yiyi, and I’ll call you Brother Sun, okay?”
"Okay! Haha, what an honor."
…
The two of them talked while walking. Soon, Sun Quan noticed that Huo Yiyi was not very interested in coming this time. She seemed to have something on her mind, and her brows were always slightly furrowed.
After they got in the car, Sun Quan drove to Qinglong Bay. Half curious and half concerned, he asked, "Yiyi, I heard Shui Qing said you came here to relax, right?"
Huo Yiyi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, heard this, glanced at him, smiled reluctantly, and hummed.
Sun Quan: "Did you encounter something unhappy? Well, can you tell me?"
Huo Yiyi was silent for a few seconds, breathed lightly, and said with a slight wry smile: "Okay, there's nothing I can't say. I just... had a big fight with my dad, and I don't want to stay at home for the time being."
Sun Quan blinked, feeling even more curious.
"Fighting with your dad? Why?"
Huo Yiyi raised her hand to brush her hair that was scattered around her face, looked at the scenery in front of the car far away, took a breath, and then said: "Why else? He said that I didn't work seriously and didn't work hard.
I was passively resisting his arrangements and scolding me for being dishonest and not worthy of being his Huo Tingdong's daughter. I couldn't hold it back, so I started to quarrel with him, and then the quarrel became more and more fierce, and finally we broke up..."
Sun Quan: "..."
When he and Yuan Shuiqing were still in Shanghai, they heard Yuan Shuiqing say that the relationship between Huo Yiyi and her father was a bit tense.
Because her father forced her to go home and inherit the family business.
When Sun Quan heard about this, he was quite speechless.
Because in his past and present lives, he always dreamed that his father would have a family fortune and force him to inherit it.
It's a pity that his father's only family property is a few bungalows and a few acres of land in his hometown.
As for the taste of farming, he had tasted it when he was a boy. It was so bitter that he wanted to cry. If nothing else, let me give you an example: harvesting double-cropping rice and threshing the rice was the hottest time of the year.
People with poor health may suffer from heat stroke just sitting at home. To thresh rice, you have to choose midday when the sun is the strongest. The stronger the sun, the better, because only when the sun is strong enough can the rice be dried enough and threshed.
It's easier and you can take it off more cleanly.
Sun Quan had tasted what it was like to work hard in the fields under the scorching sun in the dog days of summer. The sun made him dizzy, his legs were weak, and he was sweating non-stop, always running into his eyes...
So he really didn't dare to inherit his father's family business! He really couldn't bear the hardship. It was so hot that he sweated in his crotch.
