In the coffee shop of Book City, Teng Jie put down the coffee cup and looked carefully at Bai Mo's handsome face.
Bai Mo's smile was very clean, and even Teng Jie, who had seen countless people, could not catch anything unusual in his eyes.
"Brother-in-law, can you give me this book?" Bai Mo pointed to the book "The Last Supper" in Teng Jie's hand.
"Of course." Teng Jie pushed the book to the center of the table and joked, "Do you need a signature?"
"Nothing you can ask for!" Bai Mo replied politely.
After taking out Teng Jie, opening the book and signing it, Bai Mo asked again: "Brother-in-law, are you still writing any new books?"
"Yeah!" Teng Jie nodded, "The physical books are all short stories, and one will only be published in one or two years. I also have a book that is being serialized on the Internet."
"Then do you have any physical books you can think of in the future?" Bai Mo was just chatting with Teng Jie at the moment. He liked the feeling of chatting with Teng Jie very much.
Teng Jie raised his head, pushed the book to Bai Mo, and blinked gently through his gold-rimmed glasses, "Yes! I want to write about a person like you. Solving crimes is the main line, and the hidden line is how you are an artist. Become a qualified people's policeman."
"Hahaha!" Bai Mo laughed and joked, "Then you may be in trouble, maybe it won't be a big hit!"
"Are you okay? I feel like this will be a book that explores human nature and sin." Teng Jie looked behind Bai Mo as he spoke.
The two of them were sitting in the corner of the coffee shop. Teng Jie could see the whole view of the coffee shop, while Bai Mo had his back to the entire coffee shop.
"Teacher Teng?" A familiar female voice sounded behind Bai Mo.
Bai Mo was stunned for a moment. This voice was too familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.
Teng Jie nodded behind Bai Mo, "What's the matter?"
The other party came to the seat side by side with Bai Mo, "I am a fan of your book. I was delayed because of something this morning. I am late. Can you sign your autograph for me?"
Bai Mo finally remembered the other party's voice. Wasn't this Yang Lu whom he had met the day before yesterday?
Bai Mo slowly turned his head, and it turned out to be Yang Lu, but Yang Lu's attention was all on Teng Jie, and he didn't notice Bai Mo at all.
Today, Yang Lu was wearing a coffee-colored windbreaker. Bai Mo could only see Yang Lu's side, so he only saw the long legs wrapped in flesh-colored stockings under the windbreaker and a pair of high-waisted coffee-colored Martin boots.
Teng Jie nodded first and stretched out his hand towards Yang Lu, who quickly handed over the book in his hand.
Teng Jie once again took out his pen, opened the book and signed it, and joked: "It's raining lightly today. Your clothes are clean and tidy, and the makeup on your face shows no signs of wear. Why do I feel like you came directly from home?"
Readers who like Teng Jie know that Teng Jie likes to play reasoning games. Yang Lu knew that Teng Jie had found out, and smiled awkwardly, "Teacher Teng is really good, but I got up late today."
"Alas!" Teng Jie closed the book and handed it to Yang Lu. "It seems that my charm is not strong enough to be your alarm bell."
Yang Lu stuck out her tongue playfully. As a fan of Teng Jie's books, she knew Teng Jie's character. Teng Jie was either complaining about her or simply joking.
Unexpectedly, at this time, a sudden voice interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Did you play mahjong again last night?" The speaker was Bai Mo.
Yang Lu was different from Bai Mo. She knew it was Bai Mo immediately after hearing Bai Mo's voice. She looked sideways in surprise, and what caught her eye was Bai Mo's teasing smile.
At a glance, Yang Lu felt his heart tremble.
Wearing a gray casual suit and a fair face, Bai Mo looks so handsome today!
"Bai, Bai Mo?" Yang Lu was stunned for more than ten seconds before he came back to his senses.
Teng Jie could tell at a glance that Yang Lu looked at Bai Mo strangely. He was surprised and filled with joy. He asked Bai Mo, "Know?"
Bai Mo nodded and was about to speak but was interrupted by Teng Jie, "Then why don't you quickly make way for me?"
The corner of Bai Mo's mouth trembled. Before he could realize why Teng Jie suddenly invited Yang Lu, Yang Lu asked excitedly: "Is that okay?"
"What's not allowed?" Teng Jie said in a matter-of-fact tone, "You are Bai Mo's friend, and I'm Bai Mo's brother-in-law. What's not allowed to sit and drink coffee together?"
The structure of the booth is two long sofas facing each other. The sofa is not spacious. If Yang Lu sits down, he can only sit with Bai Mo.
Just like that, Bai Mo moved his position inside in a daze, and Yang Lu sat where Bai Mo had just sat. Teng Jie specially called the waiter to order a cup of coffee for Yang Lu.
"Brother-in-law?" Yang Lu asked Bai Mo excitedly after sitting down.
Bai Mo shook his head slightly, "Our Army Corps husband."
Teng Jie was not satisfied with Bai Mo's explanation and added, "My lover is Bai Mo's father's apprentice, which is equivalent to Bai Mo's senior sister."
It was obvious that Teng Jie was deliberately expressing to Yang Lu that he and Bai Mo were close.
Just when Bai Mo didn't understand why Teng Jie deliberately explained their relationship, Teng Jie suddenly asked Bai Mo, "Girlfriend?"
"Cough! Cough!" Bai Mo was frightened by Teng Jie's question, and he choked on the coffee he just drank.
Seeing Bai Mo in a hurry, Yang Lu handed the tissue to Bai Mo and explained to Teng Jie: "Not yet!"
"Not yet..." Teng Jie nodded thoughtfully, and then added his inner guess openly, "That means it will be in the future."
"Cough cough cough!" Bai Mo coughed a few more times, and he suddenly discovered that this brother-in-law also had the same desire for gossip as Zeng Hao.
After finally stopping his coughing, Bai Mo was about to explain that he and Yang Lu had just met the night before, when Teng Jie spoke before him again.
Teng Jie asked Yang Lu, "What did Bai Mo mean by playing mahjong just now? Do you like playing mahjong very much?"
Yang Lu pouted and glared at Bai Mo, then glanced at the ceiling, "It's not bad! I just spent a little too long playing with my roommate last night."
In order to prevent Teng Jie from continuing to ask about playing mahjong, Yang Lu immediately changed the subject.
Yang Lu said to Bai Mo: "No wonder you said you didn't go to the art exhibition with me on Saturday because you had something to do. It turned out that you wanted to attend Teacher Teng's autograph session. If I had known, I would have come with you."
Bai Mo immediately laughed when he heard this, then glanced at Yang Lu maliciously, and pursed his lips in Teng Jie's direction.
Confused, Yang Lu slowly looked at Teng Jie, who took off his glasses helplessly, and then let out a long sigh.
Teng Jie sighed: "It doesn't matter if you get up late to play mahjong. It turns out that your first choice was to go to the art exhibition with Bai Mo. After Bai Mo refused, you only thought of my autograph session, right?"
Yang Lu was stunned this time. She was always outspoken, and the topic was indeed changed by her. She never thought that it would be transferred to herself again.
Fortunately, the waiter brought the coffee. Yang Lu quickly lowered his head to add sugar and milk to the coffee. At the same time, he touched Bai Mo with his calf, hoping that Bai Mo could help her ease the embarrassing situation.
Teng Jie caught a glimpse of the two people's little moves. Teng Jie took out his mobile phone and faced the two of them, pretending to reply to a message. In fact, he took a photo of the two and sent it to Lu. Wan.
At this moment, Lu Wan, who was far away in Beining City, was having lunch with Bai Yonghui.
When she saw the message from her husband, she clicked it directly. When she saw Bai Mo sitting with a girl, Lu Wan showed a motherly smile on her face.
"Why are you in such a good mood?" Bai Yonghui asked.
Lu Wan didn't say anything, just put the phone in front of Bai Yonghui.
When seeing the photos of Bai Mo and Yang Lu, Bai Yonghui laughed happily, "Smelly boy..."
