I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 297 The Collapse of the Cold War

"You go to eat when you are hungry. What do you want from me?"

Zhao Qingge kept walking and walked outside the building.

"I didn't bring my meal card!"

"You didn't bring your meal card or money? You didn't bring your mobile phone either?"

"Yes, just use your mouth!"

Li Peifeng was determined to follow Zhao Qingge. When he went to the canteen, he would eat while he went home. When he went home, she followed him home. When he entered the women's bathroom...then he waited at the door until he came out. Anyway, he must eat this meal today on Zhao Qingge!

It may be because North China Normal University has put its winter vacation ahead of schedule. Students will be able to leave school on January 3, which is eight days later. The start of the school year has not been determined due to the epidemic. The start of school may even be postponed, and the next semester will be offline. Classes will be changed to online classes and students will not be allowed to return to school.

As a result, the teacher and student would not be able to see each other for a long time. Zhao Qingge was moved by his compassion and did not chase Li Peifeng away in the end. Instead, he remained silent all the way and asked him to follow him to the stall of the faculty cafeteria.

"A piece of braised beef, a piece of boiled shrimp, a piece of broccoli... and a piece of crock pot soup. How much does it cost?"

Zhao Qingge pointed to a few dishes and said this to the waiter. The latter took the dishes and put them on the plate and said casually: "Twenty-five yuan."

Zhao Qingge silently took the meal card and slid it on the machine. He turned around and left without picking up the meal.

[Zhao Qingge treated guests to dinner and spent 25 yuan, leaving 41,102 yuan left before the lottery starts...]

"mine."

Li Peifeng said something, took the plate and turned to look for Zhao Qingge, but saw that the other party stopped at another stall not far away, ordered a Guilin rice noodle, and stood there quietly waiting for the meal to be served. He looked at him as if someone else was ordering his food.

"I knew my guide wouldn't bear to see me hungry, so he ordered all my favorite food!"

Li Peifeng felt warm in his heart and found an empty table near Zhao Qingge to sit down. When the other party was carrying rice noodles to eat at another table, he immediately stood up to take the rice noodles over: "Sit at my place, I've occupied it in advance. Vacancy.”

"Move over."

Zhao Qingge groaned and frowned slightly, but still sat down with him.

Since it was meal time, many students came to eat after taking exams, so there were many people in the cafeteria. Fortunately, Beihua Normal University is a school with more cafeteria buildings than men's dormitory buildings. With such a diversion, the staff cafeteria is not particularly crowded. Tables The seats were not full, at least there were only two tables around the teachers and students.

"When will your winter vacation take place?"

[January 15th...has anything to do with you? 】

Zhao Qingge didn't answer, just sipped the rice noodles.

But Li Peifeng has a heart-to-heart connection, and he can 'eavesdrop' even if she doesn't reply, so he asks for words: "Do you have any plans for the winter vacation? Are you at home or going somewhere?"

【Turn around? Where to go? I am at home and my parents want to ask about my relationship status. What can I say? What's going on now? ! 】

Although Zhao Qingge is calm on the surface, Li Peifeng can feel her anxious heart. It is not too bad so far. The director is still hesitant and has not made up his mind to 'break up' with her, so it will be easier to handle.

"I booked a ticket for the 5th and arrived home that afternoon. I guess I've been staying at home like you for the past two months. After all, it seems like I can't go anywhere."

Zhao Qingge glanced at him: "Can you shut up?"

"Shut up...how are you going to eat?"

"Concentrate on eating and don't talk to me!"

Li Peifeng thought for a moment and said tentatively: "Why don't I leave later this winter vacation, or take advantage of the fact that the vacation hasn't started yet, buy gifts in the past two days, and go to my uncle and aunt's house to see it?"

Love relationships and the external social system influence each other, and different forces in the social system will help the relationship succeed.

Parents' identification with their partners can serve as an important external reference for testing love, satisfaction, and commitment between partners. Sometimes what both partners think is that "they are in love" is not necessarily what the other person thinks they are in love with each other. At this time, the feedback from relatives and friends on whether they support their relationship can side-check whether their relationship status is consistent with theirs. Thought it was just as good.

Moreover, meeting the parents does not mean deciding to get married. Even if you are a non-marriage person, getting the approval of the other person's parents can make the intimate relationship stronger and more stable.

But Li Peifeng didn't think that far ahead. He just used this as a way to make Lao Zhao feel at ease and end the unilateral cold war that the other party started against him.

"Why do you want to see them?"

Zhao Qingge immediately asked, "What do you want to talk to them about?"

"Just chatting about homework."

Li Peifeng leaned forward slightly and lowered his voice: "The last encounter in the hot spring was quite sudden. We didn't talk about many things and it was quite awkward for both parties. This time I took the initiative to visit you as a courtesy. After all, you and I have already... Therefore, I should meet my uncle and aunt again, the sooner the better, lest they feel uneasy."

The distance between the two sides was getting closer, making it a bit ambiguous, and the issue was being discussed in the cafeteria. Zhao Qingge's face changed slightly, and he looked around nervously. Seeing that the people around him were not paying attention, he glared at Li Peifeng fiercely: " Shut up and don't talk to me!"

"Okay, eat."

It was true that the occasion was not appropriate, so Li Peifeng decisively chose to shut up and followed Zhao Qingge back to the office after dinner before bringing it up again.

"When do you think it's a good time for me to go to your house? Why don't you ask your uncle and aunt now to see when they are free."

Zhao Qingge sat on the chair, stared at the computer screen in silence for a moment, and then said: "It's meaningless, don't see me anymore, the relationship between you and me now is just that of teacher and student."

Li Peifeng locked the office door and sat on the sofa again. He didn't speak. He closed his eyes and sat quietly as if he was falling asleep, but he silently recited the three words "Zhao Qingge" in his heart...

Now that the matter has come to this, he is going to use his trump card!

[Heart to Heart] is undoubtedly a magical skill, because it can not only hear the thoughts in the hearts of relatives and lovers, but also allow them to hear the inner thoughts of the user, and they can hear whatever the user wants them to hear. .

There used to be a kind of "overhearing" novels that were popular on the Internet. Basically, the protagonist traveled to ancient times and the supporting characters could overhear what he was thinking. At first glance, it seemed very poisonous. The protagonist had no privacy in front of outsiders. Others know everything, but the logic of such a novice's online writing cannot be scrutinized. It would actually be a bit more fun if it was written well. Because the hero's thinking in the novel "Overhearing the Voice" transcends the entire era, and the supporting characters all have IQs of no more than fifty. They will admire and worship the protagonist's wise ideas when they hear them... To put it bluntly, this writing method is a variant of the exposure flow. , the supporting roles gradually fade, and the protagonist is crazily showing off in the corner.

And Li Peifeng also has the ability to be eavesdropped on his heart. Although he has not traveled through ancient times and does not have a wise enough IQ to let people around him bow to him, he can let his lover feel the raging love in his heart and indirectly coax him. Good old Zhao can still do it, so he started to use his power on Zhao Qingge.

[I am the withering gardenia, the rain that has fallen on the beach, the love that is not accepted, the broken wind that doesn’t know where to go...]

who? ! Who is barking?

Zhao Qingge frowned and looked at Li Peifeng suspiciously. Seeing him leaning on the sofa and taking a nap, his doubts did not ease at all.

Because Li Peifeng had a connection with her when she first obtained the skill of heart-to-heart communication, the scene reappeared again, and Lao Zhao also had a target of suspicion.

[My wife ignores me, just ignore me, and she says that our relationship is just that of teacher and student, and she doesn’t let me see her parents. I feel so sick...it’s colder than ice in the cold winter, that’s all. Forget it, life is meaningless! 】

What are you barking about?

hallucination? still……

Zhao Qingge coughed dryly: "Are you going to sleep here if you don't go back?"

Li Peifeng raised his eyes slightly and glanced at her, his eyes filled with resentment. He didn't open his mouth, but his voice rang in her heart.

[Okay, okay, let’s start chasing people away. I’ll just sit in your office for a while and bore you to death without saying anything? ! Obviously I love you so much, but now you have abandoned me like a worn-out shoe. Do you not understand at all how important you are in my heart? ! 】

Can I hear what's on his mind?

Zhao Qingge finally figured it out, but his mind was still a little confused. What was the principle? Why can I hear it all of a sudden?

Li Peifeng did not give her a chance to think deeply, and continued to transform into the male version of Lin Daiyu, complaining a lot in her heart, and then said: "It seems that I have disturbed you, then I'll go."

"..."

Zhao Qingge didn't react. He was still thinking about whether what he heard was an illusion or what Li Peifeng really thought, and what the principle was. He watched him open the door and left, but he couldn't hear anything from the bottom of his heart.

"The evil fate caused by evil obstacles!"

Feeling a little regret and loss welled up, Zhao Qingge was upset, gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice, and just after cursing, the door opened again.

"Click~"

Li Peifeng walked into the room again, the joy in Zhao Qingge's eyes fleeting, and then there was a hint of surprise and pretended impatience on his face: "Why are you back again?"

Li Peifeng hesitated: "Don't forget to ask your uncles and aunts to see when they have time, so I can go and have a look."

Zhao Qingge smacked his lips twice, and finally waved his hands: "Get out!"

When Li left for the second time, Zhao Qingge stared at the door and remained silent for a moment before picking up the phone.

"Mom? When have you and my dad been free recently?"

…

…

After coming out of school, Li Peifeng returned home. The first thing he did was to release a new book, and made announcements by making comments or adding chapter testimonials in various book club groups and other old works.

The response from the book friends in the group was quite good. Li Peifeng had long mentioned that his new book would be a male channel. At first, many book friends tried to persuade him not to do this. They suggested that Li Peifeng continue writing a female channel. However, many die-hard book fans said that Support, even if you write male videos, you will follow up, and the latter is still a large group.

But Li Peifeng is not sure how many of his old readers will be able to follow. He pessimistically predicts that even a tenth of them will be a victory. After all, it is across channels, and the writing style of "Sword and Law" has changed drastically. It can be said that this book It is a completely different type from his previous works, and the readership should also be completely different. The old readers may not be able to accept the new subject matter and his new style of writing.

Therefore, Li Peifeng did not expect that the collection, recommendation votes, rewards and other data of "Sword and Law" would be so impressive after he just published the book. He just wanted to be promoted to test the waters.

Xia Sheng: "It's been reviewed, come on!"

One or two winds in the world: "I can't add more, I will be too oily!"

Xia Sheng: "I'm talking about coding well!"

One or two trends in the world: "I understand."

At one o'clock in the afternoon, "Sword and Law" was released. With the help of the editor, the review period for new books, which was originally one day, was shortened to three minutes. Three minutes later, "Chronicle of Sword and Law" was successfully listed in the fantasy category of the terminal male channel website. , can be searched and seen by all readers.

Li Peifeng only uploaded three chapters. During this period, there were basically no recommendations. At least ten days later, there will be a test push. If it is a new author, within these ten days, the exposure rate is approximately equal to zero, and it is not necessarily possible to increase ten favorites in one day.

However, the old author has a certain amount of traffic and can attract the book fans accumulated in previous works, so he has a certain advantage.

Many top men's online writers can obtain tens of thousands of monthly votes and recommendation votes, as well as 100,000 collections within 24 hours of releasing a new book, which is equivalent to a rate of approximately 4,000 collections per hour. Even if There is a certain amount of water in it, which is also very, very scary.

While Li Peifeng's "Sword and Law" was released in the past hour, the collection is...

"Three hundred and twelve collections, two hundred and sixty monthly tickets, four hundred and thirty recommendation tickets, three leaders, eighty-two comments... Not bad, not bad!"

Li Peifeng was slightly surprised. Reaching this figure exceeded his expectations. It only took one hour. If multiplied by twenty-four, it would definitely be a great result. It cannot be compared with the top platinum writers in male videos. It is about equal to the slightly weaker "Great Writer" in the male video.

After all, the worst idea ever was that I had to start from scratch and play a single player for a week in the new book period. Looking at it now, it's not that bad!

"I still have a lot of die-hard fans."

However, this statistic still damages Platinum's prestige, even though she is a female Platinum who switched to a male...

Li Peifeng thought for a while and posted a short video on Douyin, talking about the release of his new book and spending a small amount of money to push it.

Now his account has over a million followers. Although they are all fans of good looks and body fans, the traffic is not small and can be used.

After posting the video, Li Peifeng continued to write. Promotion of the new book is important, but the quality of the novel is the most important thing.

While coding, he occasionally used his mobile phone to take a look at the writer's backend, observing the data growth, and wanted to see the effect of posting videos on Douyin.

The results are very gratifying. The growth rate of collections and comments has increased by at least 30%. The growth rate of recommended votes and monthly tickets is not that high, but there is also an increase, especially rewards. Small rewards are as abundant as spring rain, and large rewards are as large as spring rain. Another example of reward...

"Old Huang next door rewards "The Chronicle of Sword and Law" with 10,000,000 finish coins!"

The first golden leader with a reward of 100,000 yuan was born.

But because of the special status of this alliance leader, Li Peifeng was not so happy. He just smiled and sent a WeChat message to Huang...

"(Love) I will be happier if you send me a 520 privately~"

A few seconds later, Huang Tianxuan replied with a panda emoticon (eating poop), and then initiated a transfer of 250 yuan.

[Huang Tianxuan donated 250 yuan in money, and there is still 40,852 yuan left before the lottery starts! 】

Li Peifeng silently clicked to accept and typed: "There is still 270 left, send it over."

Huang Tianxuan: "It's fine, just take two large-scale nude photos for me."

Li Peifeng: "...I thought you gave me money based on our feelings, but you actually made conditions?"

Huang Tianxuan: "(smiling) You are only worth two hundred and fifty, no more."

Li Peifeng: "..."

Huang Tianxuan: "Do you want another Yimeng?"

Li Peifeng: "Are there still conditions?"

Huang Tianxuan: "Place a female protagonist named Huang in the book. She is the kind of heroine that the protagonist wants to see day and night. I will arrange it immediately."

"I reject!!"

Li Peifeng smiled nonchalantly and thought to himself, it seems that He Yimeng's persuasion did not work as expected.

After the two chatted for a while, Huang Tianxuan ended the chat quietly, probably because she was busy with work. Li Peifeng thought for a moment and spent more than 400 on a bouquet of flowers using a food delivery software. He filled in Miss Huang's home address and entered the next page. Single completed.

Since the isolation cohabitation incident, the four girls around him have started cold wars with him to varying degrees. He has taken some actions, but not much. Overall, he has adopted the strategy of letting things go.

The guide used some methods in the morning to ease the situation a little. This time Huang Tianxuan was due to the release of a new book. Whether it was her appreciation of "Sword and Law" or her entanglement with him, she took the initiative to send out a signal. Li Peifeng seized the opportunity and gradually collapsed.

Only Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying did not make much progress because of Li Peifeng's passivity.

This is purely because Li Peifeng is confident, because he is confident that the bond between the three of them is relatively deep, the quality of the chain boat is absolutely excellent, and when Li Peifeng returns to his hometown during the winter vacation, Li Peifeng will also be able to see Wu Wenyue, so he is not in a hurry at all .

"It's about time!"

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, there was still half an hour left before the literary club's dinner gathering. Li Peifeng stopped typing and planned to pack up before going to the appointment. However, an unexpected guest came to his home, or rather... the other person was Master of this home!

"Man Ning!"

Li Peifeng was extremely surprised: "Weren't you quarantined in AllBright City? How could you come here?"

Xu Manying did not answer the question, but looked at him coldly, his tone colder than his eyes: "I'm here to collect the rent, pay the rent quickly!"

Li Peifeng blinked: "Collect rent? What kind of rent do you charge? Do you care if I ask for rent?"

"No money?"

Xu Manying folded his hands in front of his chest and sneered: "No way, didn't you just ask Huang Tianxuan for a 520? You also bought someone a bunch of flowers, don't you have money to pay the rent?"

Li Peifeng frowned slightly and silently recited the words Huang Tianxuan. After the connection was successful, he saw the other party smiling and video chatting with Wu Wenyue using WeChat on his mobile phone...

He smiled tenderly in his heart: "Sister Tianxuan, you are really a traitor. Do you believe that I raped you too?!"
