Liang Ze: Hey, lets say that you have been trying to call someone, but that person never picks up the call, what does that tell you?
Xie Jin Yan: That person just doesn't want to answer it
Liang Ze: I don't think so!
Xie Jin Yan: Then what do you think it is?
Liang Ze: I think that his cell phone
Xie Jin Yan: Oh
Liang Ze: Maybe every ti
Xie Jin Yan: Oh
Liang Ze: Or ht
Xie Jin Yan: Right
Liang Ze: Good Noe have our answer, he doesn't answer the call
Xie Jin Yan: What the? Are you drunk?
Liang Ze: HoouldI get drunk already? Can you let me finish!+
Xie Jin Yan: I can
Liang Ze: We know the answer now that he doesn't answer the call Right?
Xie Jin Yan: Right
Liang Ze: As for the reason why, I've listed out three possibilities, right?
Xie Jin Yan: Yup
Liang Ze: However, there's a precondition that I haven't said yet!
Xie Jin Yan: Then say it
Liang Ze: Prior to this, he told me that let's pretend we don't know each other…
Xie Jin Yan: It makes sense he doesn't want to answer the call!
Liang Ze: But there's so I don't understand!
Xie Jin Yan: Where you don't understand?
Liang Ze: He doesn't answer the call yet he doesn't hang up the call!
{Translator Input: When so up If we see so up, ”the red button”; but in Liang Ze's case, the call is go through and it didn't get disconnected; just keep on ringing}
Xie Jin Yan: …Why didn't you tell me this before all those nonsense reasons?
Liang Ze: Eh?
Xie Jin Yan: If you had told me that earlier, I wouldn't have to listen to your nonsense, that person must have put your phone number into the refuse to answer list {Translator Input: In US, we call it the Block list; Reject list; where that nu when that number calls }
Liang Ze: What do you mean?
Xie Jin Yan: Your phone doesn't have this function?
Liang Ze: What function?
Xie Jin Yan: …I give up
(She took out her phone, looked up Liang Ze's number, and set to ”refuse to answer”)
Xie Jin Yan: Try to call me
Liang Ze: Why do I have to call you?
Xie Jin Yan: Call me!
(Liang Ze repeatedly called several times)
Liang Ze: Why your phone doesn't ring? You put it on silent?
Xie Jin Yan: That's because I've refused your number; doesn't !
Liang Ze: So it's like that…
Xie Jin Yan: Hm?
Liang Ze: Before I tried to call him, I went to see him many times, but his workers said he is not home
Xie Jin Yan: …You're certainly really drunk
Right when stepped down froht at the stairs leading to Zhao Yang bar entrance, a big gorgeous spew presented proudly at the entrance
The waiter gave hi to throw him into his spew to suffocate him
Xie Jin Yan kept handing Liang Ze napkins to clean up, she also took out a bottle of ave it to him
Other people just walked in one after another, Lao Qin said ly to Xie Jin Yan before walked in, ”This kid can't be of any good use”
Xie Jin Yan replied, ”So bald like you can be of good use?”
Liang Ze threw up for some time before he could stop it, Xie Jin Yan helped hiet rolled off the this drunkard all the way to the lobby then threw him onto the sofa, Xie Jin Yan then had the time to fix her chaotic hair If she had known he drunk hiree with everyone's proposal for second round
Because it was not the weekend, and it was three in the , there were not that many people in the lobby
Liang Ze lied hanging on the sofa, eyes opened wide and stared into space but there was no soul in them
Xie Jin Yan flopped down, staring at his face as she really did not kno to deal with him
Liang Ze's book officially went on sale on May 1st, because they had done a really good job on proh noas just early July, the first 30,000 prints got sold out Although Liang Ze did not seem to cooperate ot appeared ona lot of praises, such as ”a very entertained reading, it has been many years for such a serious book to be published”
Today was a s to have the first reprint by the end of the year Mainly they aiting on the ”Hundred Flowers Award” result; second, they wanted to observe the market saturation deficit This book's result had made everyone very happy, that day Director Sun had insinuated if Liang Ze wants to strike while it is still hot by having reprint right now, Liang Ze said he had no idea
That's right, Liang Ze was in a very bad mood Since that day, it had always been on the down side Xie Jin Yan did not knohy, because whenever they sat down to have a talk about the book or general subject, Liang Ze tended to avoid her If it was not that he drunk hiht that he would never actually want to get into her car
Xie Jin Yan could not think of what hadZe to be this sorrowful, he becoe, tsk tsk, it should be the ht? But he became soZe does not have a girlfriend Could it be that refuse to answer the phone thing? Was he chasing after soirl would not hih standard!
{Translator Opinion: Sis Yan ah~ if it was a girl, he would not be this et why Hang Hang does not pay attention to him I wonder if he is too dense to understand, or he is in denial I' the later >> Such a jolly person would always try to look at things on a h it evidently shows that it is not so >> Don't bother with hi a break froth >>}
”I want to vo Ze bolted up
”Go ahead” Xie Jin Yan lighted a cigarette
