Chapter 29 Reading Club

"My name is Sun Qinqin, that's 'Qinqin' in the chat group, diligent and diligent." The female student raised her hand first, "I'm a senior student at Jinxiu University, but now I'm working as an intern teacher at my alma mater in junior high school."

"So you are our future people's teacher!" Yan Fang looked like a leader of the faction, "You are cuter than I imagined."

"Thank you." Sun Qinqin smiled, "However, I'm still not used to the occasions with many people, so I hope to participate in more activities, so that I won't be stage fright when I step on the stage in the future."

"It's a good idea." Sitting next to Sun Qinqin was a middle-aged man who looked a bit vicissitudes, "By the way, I am 'Old Qin' in the chat group, my real name is Qin Xuebing, and I am the manager of the Splendid City Public Library. After looking around, I seem to be the oldest here, haha!"

"A group of elders is like a treasure, not to mention Lao Qin, you are not old." Yan Fang seemed to be trying to warm up the atmosphere, "Speaking of the job of a librarian, it is really the envy of those of us who love to read. Already working."

"Yes!" Sun Qinqin nodded in agreement, "I also wanted to work in the library, so I wouldn't need to communicate with too many people, but it's a pity that my family disagreed."

"Girl, librarian is not necessarily the kind of leisure job you imagined." Qin Xuebing shook his head, "There is too little time to calm down and read books."

"So in order to calm down and think, I chose to stay at home and write full-time." The last one who spoke was also a young lady, she looked very beautiful, her makeup, hairstyle and dress were all in the style of idol dramas, and she spoke softly. "I'm 'Rice' in the group, my real name is Mi Xiao, and I'm unemployed."

"Mi Xiao? I seem to have heard of this name." The female student Sun Qinqin lowered her head and thought for a while, then remembered, "Ah, you are the author of the best-selling book "Loving You Is Not Easy!"

"So it's a great writer?" Yan Fang immediately praised, "I didn't expect that our book club can be regarded as a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!"

"It's just that this book sells well, and Ms. Yan is even better." Mi Xiao shook her head to stop Yan Fang from continuing to brag, "The most important thing is to work hard to write the next book well, so I like to walk around , looking for inspiration from various people. For example, the little brother who arrived at the end may become the infatuated supporting actor in my next book."

Because of Mi Xiao's words, everyone's eyes fell on the only Boss Bai who didn't introduce himself.

"Why can't I be the leading actor?" Bai Gui said with a smile, "I think it's quite suitable."

"Because my brother is so handsome, if he is really with the heroine, maybe my heroine will be hated." Mi Xiao said in a half-joking tone, "And isn't there a popular saying now? ?The male lead belongs to the female lead, but the supporting actor belongs to the whole world.”

"Then it's worth looking forward to." The white ghost said, and began to introduce himself as expected.But before that, he still needs to invent a new name for his body.

"My name is... Qu Bai." Boss Bai made up a random name, "I'm a real unemployed person."

"It's a freelancer, right?" Yan Fang still spoke beautiful words as always, "Look at my brother, he looks like that kind of artist, with a bright future."

"Qu Bai..." That reporter Chen Hao frowned, "I always feel like I've heard of this name somewhere."

"Isn't he also a capable person in business?" Yan Fang knew that he was a reporter from "Economic Weekly", so she asked a special question.

"No." Chen Hao pushed his eyes, "Actually, I worked for "Entertainment Weekly" for a while a few years ago, so I always feel that I have heard of this name before."

"It should be just the same name and surname." After all, it was just chosen, so Boss Bai is very confident.

"He's so handsome!" Sun Qinqin said softly, and after he finished speaking, he was very worried about being heard by others.

"The little girl just has too little knowledge." Yan Fang was sitting next to Sun Qinqin, so she said with a smile, "I have seen a handsome guy who is more handsome than this one!"

"Really, Sister Fang?" Sun Qinqin actually envied strong women like Yan Fang, and always dreamed that he could become strong himself.

"But believe me, my face doesn't really matter, some of it just looks bad." Yan Fang seemed to think of something, with a disgusted expression on her face, "The most important thing is...a good job."

Yan Fang said the last four words very softly, but Sun Qinqin obviously heard it, his cheeks turned red quickly, and he stopped talking.

"Mr. Naqu, what's your name in the group?" The writer named Mi Xiao still seemed to be very concerned about the white ghost, and seemed to have a mysterious intuition telling her that the young man in front of her was a little different.

"Little cutie." The white ghost showed a mischievous smile. "My name in the group is 'Little cutie'. I'm very glad to meet you all."

Everyone: "..."

"You're a cutie!" Mi Xiao was the most surprised of the five, shrinking back into the sofa in fright, "It's clearly written in your profile that you're a third-grade student at Jinxiu Primary School, and I still give you advice in the group every day." You kiss and hug!"

"It's really embarrassing." The white ghost stroked his chin, "But I remember that I also emphasized that I am an adult."

"All children say they are adults..." Mi Xiao muttered, turning his head away in embarrassment.

"Then, since everyone already knows each other, then the activities of our book club can start right away." Yan Fang immediately smoothed things over, "There are always various surprises when meeting netizens, that's why we can show the significance of this kind of activities. where the game is."

As she said that, Yan Fang began to share the printed short stories with everyone. The stories were printed in beautiful block letters on paper with ink patterns, which looked extremely exquisite and had a rare sense of ceremony.

"This article was supposed to be published in the "Splendid Daily" next month. My sister is the editor-in-chief of "Splendid Daily", so I saw this article by chance. After obtaining permission, we were able to privately preview it." Yan Yan Fang settled down in her seat, and with a soft voice, she introduced the origin of the story to everyone, "This is actually a letter with the theme "To the Lost", which was written by the survivors of the Phoenix fire 30 years ago. A letter from a deceased relative."

"That fire." The librarian, Qin Xuebing, may be the person who has the deepest impression of that fire among all the people present, "Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, every time it is mentioned, I can always think of those fires. The cries of the survivors' collapse."

"At that time, I was still young and ignorant." Yan Fang also sighed, "Now we start to read carefully, as the first activity of our book club."

The book bar immediately fell silent, and all the members of the reading club began to read silently.

The White Ghost had also heard about the fire in Phoenix 30 years ago, but it was like a certain page in a history book, which he always turned over by chance, and then turned over again.And the story Yan Fang chose was indeed very heavy, so the white ghost quietly read the whole story along with her.

After reading the whole story, everyone in the book club expressed their thoughts.The oldest Qin Xuebing recalled the news he saw during the fire in Phoenix City and the vivid pictures relayed by everyone around him.

And Yan Fang mentioned her dead father and the experience that his father took her to Phoenix City before the fire.

Chen Hao talked about his grandma who passed away at the end of the year, while Mi Xiao unexpectedly remembered the pet dog that had accompanied her for more than ten years. For her, it seemed to be the most unforgettable companionship in her childhood.

When it was Sun Qinqin's turn, she lowered her head and pondered for a while, and then said, "I'm an intern at my alma mater in junior high school, so when I walk through the campus on weekdays, I can always think of many things that happened in middle school."

Then, Sun Qinqin raised his head and asked everyone: "Everyone should know about the super powerful Bai Group, right?"

"Bai's Group is a giant commercial ship even bigger than M Group." Chen Hao answered like a professional.

"Then Mr. Chen should know about the young master who died in a car accident in the Bai Group, right?" Sun Qinqin seemed to have nostalgia in his eyes, "His name is Bai Xiao, he used to be my classmate in junior high school, and he should have been promoted to the best high school in Splendid City. But in the end, he died in the carnival night after the high school entrance examination."

The white ghost clenched his hands on his legs, and his overlapping legs also changed directions, but the expression on his face remained the same.

"Is the original heir of the Bai family?" Chen Hao obviously knew about it. "I heard that the real cause of the car accident is still unknown. President Bai and Mrs. Bai seem unwilling to believe that the car accident was just an accident."

"I don't know about these things." Sun Qinqin shook his head, "I just occasionally think of that young man. , until Bai Xiao's accident appeared in the newspapers, we didn't know that that low-key young man actually had a prominent background."

"What kind of person is he? I'm talking about his personality and hobbies." Chen Hao's tone seemed to be interviewing, "I'm sorry, I have an occupational disease."

"It's okay." Sun Qinqin smiled, "Bai Xiao doesn't have any special friends in class, and he doesn't like to talk. His favorite thing to do is to study alone. If we need his help with anything, he will He never refused, so everyone got along pretty well. For a while, I always thought he was the kind of pure academic master, but I heard his amazing violin performance at the farewell party before the high school entrance examination."

"It's really embarrassing." Yan Fang fell into deep thought, "If that young master Bai hadn't passed away, he should be graduating from university just like you, Qinqin, and even started to participate in the management of Bai's Group."

"However, the Bai Group has ushered in the birth of a new life, so don't feel so heavy." Chen Hao broke everyone's sighs. The smile on the face tells us that remembering the dead, but more importantly, the precious new life."

"Yes." Yan Fang put away the story in her hand, "Let's start the next topic."

Although everyone in the reading club has different personalities, at least everyone is a person who likes to read books and read stories, so after a process, even Boss Bai didn't feel that his time was wasted, but felt that occasionally he could calm down and communicate with each other. An interesting thing.

After the book club was over, everyone walked out of the book bar with a smile. Yan Fang and Chen Hao walked last. After all, they had already made an appointment to conduct a simple interview nearby, so they were going to ask the clerk if there was a place nearby. What a nice cafe.

"Sister Fang?"

At this moment, a certain figure who was paying at the counter suddenly turned around and looked at Yan Fang in surprise.

"Xun Bao?" Yan Fang obviously didn't expect that she would meet Xun Bao here, and she looked at the reporter Chen Hao who had meaningful eyes with some embarrassment, so she quickly walked in front of Xun Bao, and lowered her voice, "You How do you know I'm here? Are you following me?"

"No!" Xun Bao shook his head immediately, "I just happened to pass by here to buy a magazine... But, I happen to have something to tell Sister Fang."

"Come here." Yan Fang gritted her teeth and pulled Xun Bao aside, "I'll explain the matter to you today!"
