Chapter 36 Who is your boyfriend Xu Shen's first choice? Qi Ying's backup? ...

Li Su is studying. She reads books almost without a break, one book after another, page after page, word after word.

From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, from March to April. She finished reading three of the books Xu Shen bought for her, and her notes and insights alone filled up dozens of A4 pages.

Li Su is very diligent and hardworking. With in-depth study, she began to have a certain theoretical foundation for story structure. She would submit more than 20 suggestions at two meetings a week.

Unfortunately, there is still a gap between understanding and doing. And Li Su's continuous accumulation of strength and rise up are basically not related to cool articles.

Zhang Youqing, as she had said in advance, has absolute strictness and high requirements. Faced with those refreshing ideas and some conflicting and explosive points of interest, Zhang Youqing still sticks to the original branches and positioning, and refuses without hesitation.

So, Li Su was told by Zhang Youqing a thousand times, "Go down and settle down," "Keep settling down," and "You still have to settle down."

In the end, Li Su almost forgot her name. Others also subconsciously called her nickname "Li Chenjing."

With Li Chenjing as the bottom line, others, facing the light or heavy blows from Zhang Youqing, would involuntarily turn their heads to look at Li Su, looking for psychological comfort.

Li Chenjing didn't cry, Li Chenjing didn't go crazy, Li Chenjing was still persevering in raising his hand to propose. Let's keep doing it.

So a group of people, one pulling and pulling, grew side by side under heavy pressure and collapse.

And Li Su, from full of confidence at the beginning to uneasy later, even though her heart was frustrated, she always tried her best.

Just stumbled until May, when the project entered the outline confirmation period, Li Su couldn't say what she contributed to it, as if she had done nothing.

Another proposal failed. Li Su took a deep breath and rushed out first at the end of the meeting.

Who on earth stole my counterattack script?

Running to the balcony, Li Su couldn't help punching and kicking the air like crazy, waving his arms and legs, not knowing where to vent his anger.

Zhang Youqing, who followed quietly, looked at Li Su who suddenly went crazy, and also curled the corners of her lips teasingly.

"Oh, you're in a good mood, are you doing shaman dance?"

A sarcastic remark sounded behind her.

Li Su was frightened and shook her shoulders. She turned around and looked at Zhang Youqing innocently.

"You're still haunting me?" Retracting his two claws, Li Su patted the dust on his shoulders and joked, "Why are you still pestering me? It's better to keep your distance. You don't know how much you deserve a beating."

"Puff--" Zhang Youqing laughed unkindly and said in a frivolous way, "I'm definitely coming. What if you want to complain to my boss? I'll keep a close eye on you and interrupt you at any time."

"..." Li Su smiled bitterly with his hand on his forehead, feeling helpless. "I'm not going to Qi Ying's office, am I?"

"Oh~" Zhang Youqing threw a coquettish eye at Li Su and said delicately, "Then there's Xu Shen?"

"..." Li Su pulled the corner of his mouth with a fake smile.

Zhang Youqing's serious face was seen again. Contrary to her usual behavior, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and her smile always had a simple and easy-to-understand show of goodwill.

With a smart and submissive attitude, Li Su couldn't help but chuckle.

"Zhang Youqing, please stop disgusting me." Li Su stroked the goose bumps on his arm and said with a grin, "I'm a little bit tired of watching it." "

What's the big deal?" Zhang Youqing smiled without any grudges, stretched out her hand, handed Li Su a bottle of ice cola, and before Li Su was about to take it, she mischievously shook it up and down.

"The movie invested by Xu Shen is almost finished, and when it enters the post-production stage..." Zhang Youqing looked Li Su up and down, smiled meaningfully, "My good days should be coming, right?"

"Hehe." Li Su pretended to be stupid and laughed very foolishly. She always didn't respond to the topic about Xu Shen. At this moment, she looked at Zhang Youqing calmly, and no one could find any flaws.

"It's an iron wall." Zhang Youqing muttered in a low voice in annoyance. It's been so many times. Although she returned empty-handed, she still didn't give up asking.

The two sat down on the bench on the balcony, one in front and one behind.

"Hey." Zhang Youqing bumped Li Su's arm and lowered her voice and said vigilantly: "You really rented Qi Ying's house? What are you thinking?"

The gas of Coke was almost gone. Li Su opened the can and glanced at Zhang Youqing silently.

"He has cleaned up the house and charged me 4,000 yuan per month for rent. I said I should move out, and he started to lower the price for me, as if I thought the rent was too expensive, although it is indeed a bit expensive..."

Li Su's expression was hard to describe. If she went out to rent by herself, she would control the budget to about 2,000 yuan. So four thousand is too expensive.

But Qi Ying's house, if rented out according to the market price, would cost at least eight thousand. So he only offered four thousand, which was very humane. Li Su was even more afraid that he would continue to lower the price,

so she didn't dare to talk back. She was really in a dilemma. In addition, Qi Ying actually offered her a salary of twelve thousand. The 50% salary increase far exceeded the increase of ordinary job hopping. This "rent" became a kind of rebate, making her unable to move.

So she moved in without knowing what was going on, and lived there for almost two months.

If Li Su hadn't often worked overtime at the company and went to the library on weekends, she might have really seen Qi Ying often.

Now, because Li Su's study pace is too tight, at least they don't see each other much in private. In the company, both of them are very busy, so even if they get together, they are in the public eye, which is decent.

Li Su sighed and glanced at Zhang Youqing meaningfully. She took a sip of Coke and said helplessly, "Sister, it's disrespectful to refuse. He is my boss too. How do you want me to ask for it?" "

The city is full of tricks, and the countryside is slippery. It's hard to guard against!" Zhang Youqing crossed her arms over her chest. She glanced at Li Su defensively and gritted her teeth and said, "It's easy to move in but hard to move out. In the end, won't you two treat me to a wedding?"

"Puff--" Li Su couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of Coke and coughed awkwardly, "Oh my God, has it spread like this? Who gave you the news?"

Zhang Youqing gave Li Su an unfathomable look, pulled up the corner of her mouth, and revealed a sneer, "Qi Ying drank too much at the drinking party last night and wanted to call you to pick him up. We were all confused. I wanted to call a designated driver for him, but he said it was okay. You two live together. It's just right for you to pick him up after work."

"..." Li Su didn't react for a moment. She leaned sideways, and then sideways again, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself. After a long pause, she emphasized, "He didn't call me!" "

That's why it's interesting, you're in a hurry to declare your sovereignty~" Zhang Youqing shrugged with emotion, not hiding the suspicion in her eyes, and glanced at Li Su.

"Tell me the truth." Zhang Youqing approached Li Su and sniffed her scent as if checking. "How far have you two developed? Have you slept together? He's not secretly giving you lessons, is he?"

The warm breath hit her neck, making her feel wet and itchy. Li Su stood up quickly, blushing as she walked forward a few steps to keep a distance.

"It's really just an ordinary relationship between superiors and subordinates, a landlord and tenant relationship," Li Su was so anxious that she was spinning around on the ground, shaking her little pink fists, and arguing: "Besides, every time I attend a meeting, the feedback I get is 'no need'. Is there any need to doubt this strength?"

Zhang Youqing rubbed her fingertips unconsciously, with a faint smile on her lips. She looked at Li Su, looking thoughtful.

"That's not the case." Zhang Youqing relaxed and said calmly: "I didn't think your initial proposal was familiar after taking a look, but I'm willing to take a few bites of your recent proposal before spitting it out. There is still room for growth."

"..." This compliment is more unpleasant than derogatory, and all of a sudden, Li Su's mood became complicated again.

She stopped, with her back to the wind, and stood in front of Zhang Youqing. They looked at each other face to face, she was standing, and Zhang Youqing was sitting, the atmosphere was subtle.

Zhang Youqing had been observing the changes in Li Su's expression. She looked for the right moment, raised her eyebrows and asked innocently, "So it has nothing to do with Qi Ying? Your progress depends entirely on your talent? Your efforts? Your analysis?"

Zhang Youqing still did not give up. She attacked without any escape and persisted. She was determined to do it. She tried every possible means, no matter what means, to dig out some clues.

"Talent... talent?" Under Zhang Youqing's gaze, Li Su's face suddenly turned red.

Her eyes were erratic, and she rubbed her sore neck for a while. After weighing it in her mind, she explained in a buzzing voice, "I asked Xu Shen for advice. He taught me how to organize my studies and checked my homework every week..." "

So there was a famous teacher guiding me~" Zhang Youqing's smile became bigger and bigger. She said with hope, "So it was Xu Shen~ So our script was also guided by him?"

The work has not yet been released, so the plot must be kept absolutely confidential. Even though Zhang Youqing's tone was natural, Li Su didn't dare to take it lightly.

"No, no, I talked to him about another script, my original work." Li Su didn't want to cause trouble for Xu Shen, she emphasized: "He explained everything to me about my work."

"Don't be too nervous." Zhang Youqing's eyes were very easy-going, and her tone was inexplicably firm: "With Xu Shen's style, he might come over when he's free and invest more money in our project. In order to avoid the plot being leaked, he can't clear his suspicion with you."

"......" Li Su didn't expect that just finding an old classmate to guide her studies would involve so many things. She felt a little regretful.

Looking at Zhang Youqing again, she was still staring at her, and she swallowed her saliva. She couldn't guess what Zhang Youqing was thinking.

Zhang Youqing smiled warmly, but her words were gradually sharp, "So Qi Ying is the spare tire? Xu Shen is the first choice? Aren't you afraid of a car accident?"

Zhang Youqing's shocking words really scared Li Su.

She felt a little surprised, but she didn't think she should be surprised. It seemed that it had always been like this. In the eyes of others, her emotions always had multiple beautiful versions, and they had nothing to do with the truth.

Li Su originally thought that the innocent would be innocent. Due to work exchanges, it would be best not to deliberately clarify anything with Qi Ying, so as to avoid embarrassment when meeting.

But the worry and vigilance in Zhang Youqing's eyes were completely true, as if she was afraid that the trouble would come from within and affect the innocent, so she would rather offend people and make it clear early.

——Even Zhang Youqing, an outsider and a person of high status, was handled so carefully, let alone Li Su, the person involved?

Li Su no longer hesitated. In front of Zhang Youqing, she took out her cell phone and called Qi Ying.

She turned on the speakerphone and waited for a while before the call was connected when it was about to end.

"Hey, boss." Li Su's voice was very polite, and full of businesslike distance. "When are you free these days? Isn't it time to get paid? I want to treat you to a meal and tell you something."

"What is it? Can't we talk about it in the office?" Qi Ying almost blurted out. After a while, he realized and asked belatedly, "Is it a private matter?"

"Yeah." Li Su responded twice and said with a smile, "Let's talk."

"This Friday." Qi Ying's tone was very vague, but he could also hear a little smile. "Buy me breakfast and bring me fruit every day... I'll treat you."

"..." Li Su and Zhang Youqing stared at each other, and they were silent for a while.

Buying breakfast, delivering fruit, pouring water, running errands, in fact, those high emotional value care and actions, in addition to Qi Ying, Zhang Youqing also enjoys them every day.

In other words, as long as Li Su calls someone a teacher in her heart and asks for help, she will take care of them very carefully in life.

It's just that Qi Ying seems to be particularly sensitive to these. ——It’s hard to tell whether she is sensitive or not. Like Zhang Youqing, who gets taken care of by Li Su, she always transfers money back from time to time.

Only Qi Ying regards these wishful thinking as the dedication between men and women, and silently treasures them.

"Wait for me after work on Friday. I'm busy first." Qi Ying hung up first after saying that.

Li Su glanced at the phone and shrugged innocently.

Looking at Zhang Youqing, Li Su took a deep breath, turned his head fiercely, and started to walk towards the office.

"Where are you going?" Zhang Youqing was still sitting there, and couldn't help asking her.

"Teacher Zhang, I'm done with my anger. While the memory is still fresh, I have to go back and sort out your feedback on my proposal and continue to calm down!"

"..." Zhang Youqing was speechless.

Standing up and catching up, Zhang Youqing grabbed Li Su's wrist and explained with a grin: "I have good intentions, can you understand? Li Chenjing? Li Juanwang?"

Li Juanwang smiled mysteriously and said in a nonchalant manner: "I understand you, who can understand me?"
