Chapter 57 We are a couple

“See you at noon.”

After everyone introduced themselves, they got to know each other and had some impressions of each other, but they still had training to do, so Cheng Kaiyan did not stay long.

The two separated temporarily, but Liu Xiaoli and he agreed to go out to eat together at noon, and Liu Xiaoli would treat them.

Originally, she planned to go and watch the dancers training, but considering that editor Chen Shanshan was still in the performance hall, Cheng Kaiyan didn’t want to leave her for too long, so she went back to the performance hall.

“What were you doing just now? Delivering flowers?”

Chen Shanshan noticed that the flower in his hand was gone, so she asked curiously.

“Yes, it has been sent out.”

“Is it for Liu Xiaoli? You left as soon as the performance ended just now.

How about Liu Xiaoli? Isn’t she very beautiful? When we were in college, a professor from the French department also liked to come here to watch her performances and always sat in the first row. “

Chen Shanshan had a teasing smile on her face. It was true that handsome men love beautiful women. The ancients were right.

“She is very beautiful, and she even invited me to have lunch with her.”

Cheng Kaiyan crossed his legs comfortably, curled up in the soft chair, and looked at the drama performance on the stage. The play being performed was called “Xiang Xiuli”, which was the signature play of Jiangcheng Song and Dance Theater and had been performed in Beijing for the National Day.

“Tsk, just keep talking nonsense. Why is it that you Beijing men never say anything that is honest?”

Chen Shanshan shook her head, not believing it at all. “The management of Jiangcheng Song and Dance Theater is very strict. Actors are not allowed to have too much contact with outsiders. Usually, when audiences send flowers, they often ask staff to pass them on, not to mention having dinner together.”

“You know that well? Okay, you can come with me later.”

“Just go. If someone invites you, then go. I’d be remiss not to go. First of all, I have to make it clear that I don’t have any money with me today.”

Chen Shanshan snorted and took out her pockets to show him. They were empty.

“Okay! As an editor, you took your author out to play, but you didn’t even bring money? Then how did you get the tickets for the show?”

Cheng Kaiyan was shocked. She didn’t expect there was someone who was so greedy for money.

“I’m just an extra employee from the editorial department! I’ve come out to play with you, and you still want me to treat you? I’m just a temporary editor, not a permanent employee yet, unlike some people who got so much money for their articles yesterday, so I’m lucky enough not to ask you for help.”

The two of them watched the performance while bickering quietly.

Before I knew it, the hands on the watch were moving forward minute by minute, and the sunlight outside the window was getting warmer.

It was half past eleven when the theater performance ended at noon.

Cheng Kaiyan brought Chen Shanshan to the passage between the performance hall and the backstage to wait for Liu Xiaoli.

……

“No buddy…are you serious?”

Chen Shanshan looked at the girl in front of her with a complicated expression. A slender girl with a ponytail and wearing a cotton coat was walking towards them. The ponytail behind her head was jumping up and down with the girl’s brisk steps.

This is really Liu Xiaoli, the famous young female dancer from Jiangcheng Song and Dance Theater!
“Otherwise, go back and eat, and don’t disturb us.”

Cheng Kaiyan said something and then walked forward.

Not only did Chen Shanshan see Liu Xiaoli, but Liu Xiaoli also saw her.

Liu Xiaoli raised her eyebrows, glanced at Cheng Kaiyan with her dark eyes, and asked calmly, “Who is this female comrade?”

“I was just about to introduce you to this editor, Chen Shanshan. I came to Jiangcheng to do some business, and this is the editor who will receive me.”

Cheng Kaiyan felt his scalp tingling when he saw the girl, and he quickly introduced her.

Wow, your aura is so strong.

Liu Xiaoli ignored him and took the initiative to walk towards Chen Shanshan. With a faint smile on her face, she stretched out her hand and shook hands with Chen Shanshan. “It turns out to be Editor Shanshan. Hello, hello. I am really sorry to trouble you to take care of our Kaiyan. I am Liu Xiaoli, Kaiyan’s boyfriend. This is the first time we meet. Please take care of me.”

“Hello, hello, I’m Chen Shanshan, and I’m Teacher Cheng’s editor.”

Chen Shanshan was a little confused by Liu Xiaoli’s friendly attitude and the word “boyfriend”.

‘You two are a couple, what’s going on?’

……

The three of them left the theater with doubts in their hearts. Liu Xiaoli meant that she was the host, so she would arrange everything for the dinner, and Cheng Kaiyan only had to eat.

I found a state-owned restaurant, which was a Sichuan restaurant.

Liu Xiaoli ordered the dishes and then started drinking tea and chatting.

“This is what happened. Teacher Xiao Cheng submitted a manuscript to our Fangcao editorial department this month. I am the editor who specifically receives Teacher Xiao Cheng. It can’t be said that I am taking care of her. This is what I should do. Xiaoli, you don’t have to be so polite.”

Chen Shanshan took a sip of tea and recounted what had happened.

“So that’s how it is. Fangcao is the former Jiangcheng Arts, right? It’s quite close to our song and dance theater.”

Liu Xiaoli nodded, but her eyes inadvertently glanced at Cheng Kaiyan beside her.

She also felt a little emotional. As smart as she was, she could naturally guess why Cheng Kaiyan submitted an article to Fangcao. It was probably to come to Jiangcheng to see her.

“Yes, Xiaoli, what is your relationship with Teacher Xiao Cheng?”

Chen Shanshan asked with curiosity on her face.

Liu Xiaoli glanced at Cheng Kaiyan. She actually understood why Cheng Kaiyan interrupted her just now. In fact, she didn’t want to affect her. After all, the two of them had agreed to get along for a year first. If they couldn’t fall in love, they would break up peacefully and live happily.

However, Liu Xiaoli didn’t like this. She felt that she was gaining a greater advantage in this matter. Was she really going to take advantage of something in name only?

“We are dating, but we are worried that it will affect our work, so we announced to the public that we are a sister and a brother.”

“I see. Your musical theatre is very strict about this.”

Chen Shanshan was amazed. No wonder Teacher Cheng went to buy flowers so early in the morning. It turned out that they were a couple!

It is shocking news indeed.

By the way, the reason why he didn’t submit his work to People’s Literature was actually to come to Jiangcheng to find a partner?

I……

Chen Shanshan’s eyes suddenly sparkled when she realized this. Isn’t this kind of romantic man so rare?
Then the two of them talked about the article written by Cheng Kaiyan.

“The article submitted by Teacher Xiao Cheng has the same name as our editorial department, also called “Fragrant Grass”, and it has a total of 280,000 words.

Xiaoli, let me tell you, this novel is so well written that after reading it, almost everyone in our unit cried. Even our deputy editor-in-chief, Mr. Yang, who is in his forties, cried.

Editor-in-Chief Yang’s evaluation of Fangcao is a great realist masterpiece! “

When Chen Shanshan talked about Cheng Kaiyan’s “Fragrant Grass”, her attitude immediately changed, and she wanted to praise him to the sky.

“Editor-in-Chief Yang’s evaluation is great, a masterpiece of realism?”

A strange look flashed across Liu Xiaoli’s beautiful eyes, and she was very surprised.

She knew that Cheng Kaiyan was a talented person, and her debut work “Submarine at Night” was already quite amazing.

Liu Xiaoli can even recite some of the sentences.

But it is really eye-catching that the second work received such a high evaluation from the editor-in-chief of Fangcao Editorial Department.

This made Liu Xiaoli, a literary girl, very curious. What exactly did Comrade Xiao Cheng write?
So curious!
“Originally, he wanted to submit the novel to People’s Literature. At that time, Professor Zhang Guangnian of People’s Literature kept inviting him, but he still rejected the invitation of People’s Literature and resolutely submitted it to our Fangcao!”

Chen Shanshan revealed another big piece of news, and did not forget to wink at Cheng Kaiyan to take credit for it. Cheng Kaiyan was not in a position to tell Liu Xiaoli these words.

“Kaiyan, you also rejected People’s Literature? Kaiyan… you have sacrificed too much for me.”

Liu Xiaoli’s beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Cheng Kaiyan and said with a complicated expression.

That is people’s literature!
Known as the country’s top literary journal!

This is a literary sanctuary that many people dream of, but he just refused it!

Cheng Kaiyan didn’t say anything, just drank tea quietly.
