Chapter 149 It turns out that he is right beside me
At noon, Su Xing sent a message to Tang Wu to order some things.
Is it okay to not wake up: "Sister Tang, I may not be able to pick it up after school, because it is not convenient to bring it to school, and it is too late after evening self-study. I am in a hurry to use it. Um... can you send it to my house by express delivery in the same city?"
Tang Wu: "Why bother using intra-city express? I'll deliver it to you tonight."
Is it okay not to wake up: "But my evening self-study will be after nine o'clock, it's very late, will it be too much trouble for Sister Tang?"
Tang Wu: "It's just a small matter, why bother? Besides, you are my client, and it is my duty to serve you. It's past nine o'clock and nightlife has just begun. Do you want to have a midnight snack together?"
Su Xing didn't hesitate any more and immediately agreed to Tang Wu!
Can't you just stay awake: "Okay! What does Sister Tang want to eat? I'll treat you!"
Tang Wu: "I know there's a restaurant that serves good barbecue, not far from your house, shall we go there and have some?"
Is it okay to not wake up? "Yes!"
After sending the message to Tang Wu, Su Xing looked through the messages from her parents. They couldn't go home tonight, so she didn't have to tell them that she would be back late today.
Afterwards, she sent a message to He Xu asking for leave.
Is it okay if you don't wake up: "Mr. He, I can't go to online classes on time tonight. I have an appointment with Sister Tang for supper!"
Xu: "Tang Wu?"
Can I not wake up? "Hmm!"
Xu: "Do you like Tang Wu very much?"
Is it okay if you don't wake up: "I like it! Sister Tang is talented and good-looking! She has a good personality, who wouldn't like it!"
He Xu raised his eyebrows. Is his somewhat rebellious cousin with a sharp tongue a good person?
But it seems that the little girl and his cousin get along quite well.
Xu: "Go ahead, don't go home too late."
Can I stay awake? "I know! (Expression: happy smile)"
He Xu raised his eyebrows again. How could the girl be in such a good mood just by having a meal with his cousin?
……
After evening self-study, Su Xing walked out of the school gate and saw Tang Wu's car parked not far away, flashing the hazard lights at her.
Su Xing said goodbye to a few friends and walked quickly towards Tang Wu's car.
She opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, then subconsciously glanced at the back seat.
Tang Wu couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, Xiaocan wasn't brought along."
Su Xing blushed, "That's not what I meant..."
Tang Wu said: "I understand! We girls get together, what are you doing with a smelly man, what a hindrance!"
wake:"……"
That's not what she said...
Tang Wu started the car and headed towards the barbecue restaurant she mentioned.
When they arrived at the place, Su Xing discovered that it was indeed not far from her home and was a store open day and night.
The two of them ordered some grilled skewers, a plate of boiled peanuts, a platter of edamame, and a dozen grilled oysters, which was enough for two girls.
Tang Wu wanted to drive and Su Xing was under 18 years old, so neither of them could drink alcohol, so they ordered a bottle of sour plum soup.
The two began to chat while eating.
Tang Wu asked Su Xing curiously: "You are going to take the college entrance examination soon, right? Do you still have time to paint?"
Su Xing said: "I don't have much time to draw, but this time we are going to prepare a surprise for the teacher, and I have been assigned some tasks..."
Tang Wu said, "Oh?" "Surprise?"
Su Xing briefly told Tang Wu about the plan of their Class 12.
After listening to it, Tang Wu said, "That sounds great! It seems like your teacher treats you very well."
"Yes!" Su Xing nodded affirmatively. "Although Teacher Wang is usually very strict, he is actually very kind to us. The other teachers... also care about us very much!"
Tang Wu asked again: "You like painting so much, do you plan to develop in this field in the future? Or is it just a hobby?"
"I'm not an art student, so I probably won't apply for a fine arts major. However, painting may become a side job for me in the future..."
When she said this, something suddenly occurred to her, and she said to Tang Wu, "Oh, by the way, Sister Tang, there is something I was thinking of bothering you with..."
"Oh? What's the matter? Tell me."
"Um... Xiaokui, the editor at Huaguo Pictorial Publishing House, said that she would wait until after I take the college entrance examination to meet me to discuss the publication of the picture album. I was wondering... Sister Tang, could you accompany me to meet that Xiaokui editor? Well... I don't know much about this either, so I would like Sister Tang to help me look at the contract and so on..."
She had to make Sister Tang feel involved in her affairs so that they could get closer!
Su Xing's words stunned Tang Wu!
She held a skewer of meat in her hand but didn't eat it for a long time!
She stared at Su Xing with wide eyes, "What did you say? An editor from Huaguo Pictorial Publishing House? Have any of your works been taken by them?"
Su Xing looked embarrassed, "I drew some posters, and they thought the idea was good, and they fit well with the theme of their activities in the second half of the year..."
"Oh? What poster?"
Su Xing picked up the phone, clicked on her Weibo, and handed it to Tang Wu, "That's it..."
Tang Wu took Su Xing's phone and looked down at her Weibo page.
then……
She hesitated for a long time and remained silent for a while before speaking again.
Tang Wu: "...So these are all drawn by you!"
Her tone and expression are very complicated!
It turns out that the painter she thought was very spiritual was right next to her...
"Thank you, Sister Tang, for defending me on Weibo. At that time... I didn't hide it from you on purpose. I just felt... I felt a little embarrassed..."
She pinched her fingers nervously. Would Sister Tang be disappointed with her previous concealment?
In fact, she just felt that her paintings were not good enough in front of a painting master like Tang Wu...
As soon as Tang Wu looked up, she saw the little girl's nervous expression and movements, and she couldn't help laughing.
"What's the big deal? Even close friends have their own space. There's no need to report everything." She paused, then said, "Now that you've told me about this, don't worry. I'll accompany you to meet the editor and try to negotiate a suitable tiered royalty for you."
Although people like her who purely paint and sell paintings do not make money by publishing picture albums, she still knows something about the related matters, and she can also find a familiar lawyer to help the girl look over the contract.
Seeing that Tang Wu agreed and was not angry, Su Xing was very happy, "Thank you, Sister Tang!"
"You're so polite! But I'm going to give you a good meal today!"
Su Xing curled his eyes, "No problem!"
Tang Wu waved to the waiter: "Waiter, another dozen garlic scallops! And a fruit plate!"
……
After the two finished their meal, Tang Wu sent Su Xing home.
When they were almost reaching Su Xing's neighborhood, they both heard a shrill cat cry at the same time!
Su Xing frowned tightly.
Tang Wu's car also stopped to the side and stepped on the brakes!
