Chapter 23 Change
Facing Li Luo's greeting, Ying Zhicheng glanced at the boy's face, then looked at the clothes in his hand, and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing?"

"Oh, me." Li Luo blinked and said innocently, "Ying Chanxi called me at noon and said it was going to rain, so she asked me to help her collect the clothes."

As he spoke, Li Luo walked to the door of Ying Chanxi's bedroom, opened it and walked in.

After putting the clothes on her bed, he immediately backed out.

He didn't feel guilty at all.

After all, he was the one Ying Zhicheng had grown up with, and he could freely enter both homes, so it was normal for Ying Chanxi to ask him to accept the clothes.

Ying Zhicheng didn't really react to this. After changing into another pair of slippers, he walked into the living room and asked Li Luo, "Is Xixi still in school?"

"Correct."

"Today is Friday." Ying Zhicheng thought for a moment and said, "I remember that school should be over early?"

"Yes, there is no evening self-study on Fridays, and Ying Chanxi usually gets home at 5:30 in the evening." While answering the question, Li Luo was wondering whether he should slip away.

It was somewhat awkward for Uncle Ying and I to be alone in the living room.

Ying Zhicheng also thought so, but he certainly wouldn't say it out loud: "I'll cook dinner tonight. I've already told your dad about it. Let's eat together in the evening and get together."

In fact, Ying Zhicheng doesn't like Li Luo.

Of course, I can’t say I hate it.

He and Li Guohong have been close friends since childhood and they have a very good relationship.

Naturally, he would not reject the son of his good brother.

It’s just that Li Luo is a bit too wild, and Ying Zhicheng is always worried that he will lead his daughter astray.

Especially since he has been working in the city for a long time, he has no time to look after Ying Chanxi on weekdays.

If Ying Chanxi was taken around by Li Luo to play all day, his grades would definitely be affected.

However, as time went on, Ying Zhicheng found that his daughter's grades had always been the best in the school and had never dropped, so he felt relieved.

In addition, his good brother's family lived next door and often took care of his daughter, so Ying Zhicheng didn't pay any more attention to it and concentrated on making money there.

But I just can't like Li Luo.

Li Luo could sense it, so he naturally wouldn't stay here. After listening to Ying Zhicheng, he walked towards the door: "Uncle Ying, I'll come over with my parents in the evening to bother you. I'll go back and catch up on some sleep first."

"Okay." Ying Zhicheng took off his suit and saw that he was about to leave, so he suddenly asked, "What does Xixi like to eat now? Minced meat and eggplant?"

"Yes." Li Luo was changing shoes at the door. When he heard this question, he immediately said, "Minced meat and eggplant, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and cola chicken wings are her three favorite dishes."

"It really hasn't changed at all." Ying Zhicheng laughed and shook his head.

"After all, these are Auntie's three best dishes." Li Luo said with a smile after putting on his shoes, "I like them too."

"Hmm..." Ying Zhicheng fell silent and did not respond.

So Li Luo opened the door at the right time and prepared to go home.

As soon as he opened the door, Li Luo saw a courier boy standing at his door, about to raise his hand to knock.

dong dong dong.

"Is anyone home? The package has arrived!"

"Is this the express from 401?" Li Luo asked suddenly, standing behind the courier boy.

The courier boy was startled when he heard the voice behind him. He turned to look at Li Luo, then glanced at the package in his hand: "Yes, it's from 401. Do you know this family?"

"Yes, I know you. I live in 401." Li Luo walked out of the door of 402, took out the key and opened the door of 401. "But I don't think we bought anything online. What are you giving me?"

"It's the admission letter." The courier handed the package to Li Luo after he saw him open the door of Room 401. "You are Li Luo, right? Do you have an ID or student ID? I need you to sign it to confirm."

"Oh, okay, please wait a moment." Li Luo said this and was thinking about closing the door of 402 first.

But at this time, Ying Zhicheng from the living room had already followed the sound and stood at the door and asked curiously, "Admission letter?"

"Yes." Seeing that Ying Zhicheng had no intention of closing the door, Li Luo responded and went home to get his student ID.

Ying Zhicheng looked at the courier with curiosity and couldn't help asking, "Which school is the admission letter from?"

"The No. 1 Affiliated High School, right?" the delivery boy said casually, "Your neighbor's kid is pretty good. I remember No. 1 Affiliated High School is considered the best high school in Yinjiang District, right?"

Hearing the courier's answer, Ying Zhicheng was obviously stunned for a moment, and was a little unresponsive: "Is this notice sent to Li Luo?"

"Yes, who else could it be?" The delivery boy looked at Ying Zhicheng in surprise, "The name is written on it."

This surprised Ying Zhicheng a little.

In his impression, Li Luo's grades don't seem to be that good, right?

During the Chinese New Year, the two families had dinner together, and he and Li Guohong talked about Li Luo's final grades.

He ranked 27th in the class, and his total score was more than points less than Ying Chanxi.

Can you get into the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School with this level?

Ying Zhicheng was surprised as he watched Li Luo walk out of the house, take out his student ID, sign the express delivery slip, and take the package.

After sending the courier away, Li Luo glanced at Ying Zhicheng's expression and simply did not go into the house. He stood in the aisle, opened the package in his hand, and took out an admission letter from it.

Ying Zhicheng on the opposite side came over and took a look at the content.

There are two things in the admission letter. One is a congratulatory letter similar to a certificate, congratulating Li Luo on his successful admission to our school, etc.

Then there is a school opening notice which states the start date, items that need to be brought, and various precautions.

"You did well in the high school entrance exam?" Ying Zhicheng asked, "It's not easy to get into the No. 1 Affiliated High School."

"Well, I got 555 points." Li Luo said, "86th in the district, which is not bad, but it's definitely not comparable to Ying Chanxi."

"That's pretty impressive." Ying Zhicheng glanced at Li Luo and suddenly felt that this guy was not as bad as he thought. "It's just right, I'll celebrate with you with this dinner tonight."

"Then thank you, Uncle Ying."

The two people went home in the aisle.

Li Luo went back to the room, took a shower, and then lay down on the bed to take a nap.

When I woke up, it was already past three in the afternoon.

Originally at this time, he should have run to the study room of Ying Chanxi's house next door to borrow a computer to continue typing.

But now Ying Zhicheng is there, so Li Luo won't go over. Anyway, there are still many manuscripts in stock, so there is no need to rush for one or two days, so just take a rest today.

Thinking of this, Li Luo turned over in bed and heard the sound of raindrops hitting the window outside.

He sat up and looked out the window.

It was raining heavily and the window was blurred.

Li Luo opened the window and found that it was raining heavily outside, and it was estimated that it would not stop for a while.

So he simply got out of bed, rummaged in the cabinet at the door, took out three umbrellas, changed his shoes, and prepared to bring umbrellas to his parents.

As a result, as soon as the door was opened, the door of 402 opposite was also opened.

When Ying Zhicheng walked out of the house and bumped into Li Luo, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

"Uncle Ying, are you going out?" Li Luo asked curiously as he walked downstairs.

"Well, we're out of soy sauce at home. I forgot to buy some when I went grocery shopping." Ying Zhicheng said, "I have to go downstairs and buy a bottle."

"Is that so?" Li Luo stopped and said to Ying Zhicheng, "Uncle Ying, don't go down then."

"I just happened to be delivering an umbrella to my parents. I'll bring you a bottle when I come back."

"It's raining heavily outside, there's no need for both of us to go downstairs."

After hearing what he said, Ying Zhicheng nodded happily: "Then I'll trouble you."

"No trouble." Li Luo smiled, turned around and ran downstairs.

Looking at Li Luo's back as he left, Ying Zhicheng felt a little dazed. He felt that Li Luo seemed to have suddenly become more stable and mature.

Not as edgy as before.

Thinking of this, Ying Zhicheng turned back to the house and continued to prepare food in the kitchen.

Li Luo went downstairs, opened his umbrella, walked into the rain, and headed towards the breakfast shop across the street.

"Mom, I put the umbrellas here! Remember to use them when you go home." After entering the store, Li Luo put the two umbrellas in his hand on the counter and said to Lin Xiuhong.

When Lin Xiuhong saw her son really coming to give her an umbrella, her heart suddenly warmed: "I know."

"Then I'll go back first." Li Luo said, "Uncle Ying from next door is back. He said he wants to cook a meal and invites us over in the evening."

"Yes, your father told me." Lin Xiuhong nodded, and then reminded, "Remember not to tell Xixi. Your uncle Ying probably wanted to give her a surprise and didn't inform her in advance."

"Oh?" Li Luo raised his eyebrows, then smiled and said, "I know, I will definitely keep it a secret."

After saying that, Li Luo held up his umbrella and ran to the gate of the residential area opposite. He bought a bottle of soy sauce from the supermarket and walked back to the corridor.

Folding his umbrella and climbing up to the fourth floor, Li Luo came to the door of 402 and subconsciously wanted to take out the key from the couplet.

After thinking for a while, he withdrew his hand and knocked on the door.

After a while, Ying Zhicheng came to open the door, took the soy sauce from Li Luo, and said to him: "Come in and sit down, the computer in the study is still empty, you can go and play for a while."

After Ying Zhicheng said so, Li Luo, who originally wanted to go back to his room, didn't bother to be polite with him and went into the room to change into slippers.

Seeing him go into the kitchen to continue busying himself, Li Luo strolled into the study, turned on the computer without hesitation, logged into Qidian Chinese website, and took a look at the Sanjiang rankings.

"I'm Really Not a Celebrity" is on the list.

Yesterday he asked the editor, and now his book has about 1200 readers.

Once this round of recommendations is completed, it will be ready for sale next week.

Seeing the data of his book, Li Luo could only shake his head and laugh, thinking that if this data was put on ten years later, let alone Sanjiang, it would be a problem whether it could advance to the third round of recommendations.

But Li Luo is not in a hurry, he knows very well where his advantages lie.

Now in 2014, the online literature industry is entering a new stage of development.

With the gradual popularization of smart phones, Qidian Chinese Network has also followed the trend and launched the Qidian Reading APP, joining the era of mobile Internet.

By the end of the year, the distribution of Qidian's readers was almost 50-50 between computers and mobile phones.

By the end of 15, mobile phone users accounted for 70%, and by the end of 16, this figure had swelled to 90%.

Some people may think, what's the difference?

They are both reading books, so what is the difference between using a computer and a mobile phone? At most, it is more convenient to read novels on a mobile phone.

But in fact, there are two major changes here.

One is the change in user groups.

In the past, people who had the conditions to use computers and surf the Internet and read novels had more or less some education and literary literacy. At least they could learn to use a computer, and their family conditions would not be too bad.

With the emergence of smart phones, especially very cheap ones like Xiaomi, the masses who were originally isolated from the Internet were suddenly drawn into the mobile Internet.

These users, at least in terms of literary literacy and aesthetics, certainly do not have as high requirements as previous users.

Naturally, it will also lead to the rise of a group of more refreshing and white works.

Second, it is the change in the way of reading.

Originally, when reading novels on a computer, it was normal for the author to write hundreds of words in a paragraph and for the layout to appear on the computer screen.

But the same text, once placed on the mobile phone screen, suddenly becomes a large piece of text garbage.

The reading experience will be very poor.

Many authors did not realize this at first and still maintained the writing habits of the computer era.

But for mobile users who are new to the world of online literature, if the problem of text layout can be solved, then this book will have an advantage at the starting line.

Li Luo stands at the forefront of the tide of the times. His new book perfectly adapts to the changes in this stage, so it is only natural that it can achieve good results.

However, just when Li Luo was about to type a few words, there was a noise coming from the kitchen.

Li Luo walked out of the study room in confusion and looked towards the kitchen. He saw Ying Zhicheng frowning and his right hand tightly clenching the fingers of his left hand.

Looking at the ground again, I saw a kitchen knife dropped there, and I had no idea how it happened.

"Uncle Ying, what's wrong with you?"

"Hmm...hiss..." Ying Zhicheng frowned, took a breath, glanced at Li Luo, and said helplessly, "I cut my hand while cutting vegetables."
