Rekindling the Youthful Era

Chapter 658 Brave Xixi wins, wins, wins!
At 4:30 in the afternoon, Li Luo temporarily stopped typing, shook his head, got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face.

He didn't write much in the afternoon. After simply finishing one chapter, he spent the rest of the time struggling in the memory palace in his mind.

Because he would be in seclusion for more than half a month, Li Luo specially sorted out the various preparations related to "Daqian Night Patrol" in his memory palace.

It includes the overall context of the outline, the detailed outline for the first and second volumes, and some foreshadowing for the later third and fourth volumes.

Then draw a timeline and insert all the plot events one by one, so that the order of the plot is clearly visible, and mark the corresponding ups and downs and climaxes of the plot one by one.

At the same time, perfect the character relationship diagram in your mind, and match each chapter where a character appears with the character in the diagram one by one.

In this way, as long as Li Luo selects the corresponding character in the character relationship diagram, he can immediately call up all the chapters in which this character has appeared before in his mind.

If other authors knew about such powerful retrieval efficiency, they would probably be extremely envious.

After all, if the author were to make such a clear outline framework and settings purely by hand, he would probably go bald, and it would be easy to have omissions.

Long online novels tend to collapse more and more as they get older, which is also related to this problem.

After all, the author's brain capacity is limited. Sometimes, being able to make a line that stretches thousands of miles and has consistent connections is already exhausting.

It is really difficult to achieve the level of Li Luo.

But Li Luo was still not satisfied. He planned to take some time in the next two days to list out the subsequent chapter outlines, following the chronological order of the plot, and draw a chapter outline guided by the ups and downs of emotions.

In this way, when he was typing, he only needed to follow the ideas and order of the chapter outline and just type hard on the keyboard.

Before, he used to write every night, and even with this, he was still able to maintain the 4,000-word update of "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" and the 10,000-word update of "Daqian Night Patrol".

At the same time, they also maintain at least 200,000 to 300,000 words of manuscripts on both sides.

After he started his retreat these two days, including the daytime time, it was indeed not difficult for him to write 20,000 to 30,000 words a day.

In this regard, the existence of the memory palace is still too incredible.

Li Luo did a simple calculation and found that the minimum number of words updated every day was 4000, which means the minimum number of words updated per month is 12.

Assuming he has to complete the update of 700,000 words within a month, he will have to update 820,000 words a month.

So on average, more than 27,000 words need to be updated every day.

Hmm...it seems that it is not impossible.

"Li Luo, it's almost time." Just as Li Luo washed his face and came out of the bathroom, still thinking about these things, Ying Chanxi poked his head in from outside the bedroom door and said, "It's time to set off."

"Oh, here I come." Li Luo nodded, and saw Ying Chanxi walk into the room, come to the closet, take out a suitable set of clothes and throw it to Li Luo.

"Change your clothes first." Ying Chanxi said, "Today is the graduation banquet, so dress smartly."

"Okay." Li Luo took the short-sleeved shirt thrown by Ying Chanxi and put it on very quickly.

But after he changed, he realized something was wrong. He looked down at his blue T-shirt with white letters, then looked at the white T-shirt with blue letters that Ying Chanxi was wearing, and he couldn't help laughing.

Especially since the English letters written on it are "family" in capital letters, it is obviously a couple's outfit.

"I think you bought this dress for me when you went abroad during the winter break of my first year in high school?" Li Luo recalled.

"Yes." Ying Chanxi couldn't help but recall the past when he mentioned it, and then complained, "Someone kept the fact that he was writing a novel from me while I was buying clothes for him abroad."

"Ahem...it's old news, let's not talk about it." Li Luo put his arm around Ying Chanxi's shoulders and walked out.

When the fact that he had been hiding the fact that he was writing online articles from Xixi was accidentally exposed by Ying Zhicheng, Ying Chanxi started to play the cold war with him.

It wasn't until the night I returned home that I finally broke out completely.

That was also one of the rare moments when Ying Chanxi lost control of his emotions.

However, Ying Chanxi was not angry simply because Li Luo kept the secret from her.

It was because everyone around Li Luo knew about it, even her father knew about it, but she was still kept in the dark.

This selective and sequential concealment is what makes Ying Chanxi sad.

After all, in Ying Chanxi's heart, his position in Li Luo's heart should be the highest except for Li Luo's relatives.

"Why did you change into this outfit?"

After Li Luo and his friend walked out of the bedroom, they ran into Yan Zhusheng who had just finished using the bathroom.

Yan Zhusheng turned his head and saw the two of them coming out in couple outfits, and immediately narrowed his eyes.

"I picked it out for him." Ying Chanxi snorted. He has become even bolder now and even dared to wear couple outfits with Li Luo to attend the graduation banquet.

Xu Youyu also came out of the room at this time. Seeing the clothes the two were wearing, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's quite suitable. It's reasonable for two top scorers to wear the same clothes at the entrance banquet."

The four of them chatted as they came to the door and changed their shoes.

After going out and downstairs, Li Luo drove his Audi A6 and took the three girls to the hotel booked by Li Guohong for the graduation banquet.

He drove all the way to the hotel entrance and parked in a parking space near the entrance. As soon as Li Luo got out of the car, he met several classmates who had just arrived at the hotel entrance.

"Oh my god! Squad leader!" Zhang Guohuang trotted over and greeted Li Luo, followed by Zhu Yufei and others, "You've bought a car?"

"I haven't even passed the driving test yet." Zhu Yufei approached Li Luo's car with an envious look on his face, looking here and touching there, "This is so cool."

"Is this an Audi A6?" Lin Yuan looked it up and down. "I remember it was not cheap."

"For our squad leader, this is just a small amount of money." Zhu Yufei laughed, "Look at how popular Little Joy is. Buying a car is easy for him."

"I didn't buy this car." Li Luo said calmly, "Xixi's father heard that I wanted to buy a car, so he just gave it to me."

Zhu Yufei: “…”

Zhang Guohuang: “…”

Lin Yuan: “…”

"Let's go, let's not watch anymore, there's nothing to see." Zhu Yufei's scalp was tingling because of Li Luo's pretense, so he turned around and left immediately, "I'm so hungry, let's eat quickly."

"That's right." Zhang Guohuang also shook his head repeatedly, "If I had known earlier, I would have asked a few more students to get the admission letters. I'm still soft-hearted. It's too easy for the class monitor."

"Hey, hey, hey! Stop right there!" Upon hearing Zhang Guohuang's words, Li Luo narrowed his eyes and shouted, "I was wondering why among the more than 300 extra chapters on the list, more than 60 are from Affiliated High School No. 1. It turns out that you two are the ones behind this?!"

"Run away!" Zhang Guohuang realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and ran away immediately.

Zhu Yufei also hurriedly followed and ran into the hotel gate.

In the end, only Lin Yuan was left standing here.

"You're not running?" Li Luo asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I haven't done anything to let down the monitor." Lin Yuan looked innocent, "Besides, I still have to wait for Xiuxiu to come over, you guys go in first." "Xiuxiu has been called?" Xu Youyu joked, "Something's going on."

“Ahem…” Lin Yuan scratched his head in embarrassment. “Don’t talk nonsense, Senior Sister. It’s not what you think.”

"I remember Hua Xiuxiu was admitted to the School of Finance, right?" Li Luo said with a smile, "You went to the School of Science and Technology? The two schools seem to be quite close."

"It's quite close." Lin Yuan chuckled, "It only takes a few minutes to walk."

"Here, they're here." Li Luo nodded and gestured behind Lin Yuan, "Let's go in together."

At this time, Hua Xiuxiu, Ren Zheng, and several other girls who were on good terms with each other, came together and met up with the people at the hotel entrance.

Li Luo invited all the students in Class 8 before and after the class division to the graduation banquet. In the end, except for those who had family matters or were traveling, a total of about 30 students came to show their support.

He took Lin Yuan and the others into the hotel and came to Hall No. 1 of the reserved restaurant.

On the way, Li Luo did not forget to ask Ren Zheng: "Where is Fang Chen?"

"Why are you asking me?" Ren Zheng rolled her eyes and sat down sullenly. "I'm not familiar with him."

"Ahem..." Seeing this, Lin Yuan leaned close to Li Luo's ear and whispered, "They are having a falling out. Squad leader, please stop talking."

"Why did they break up?" Li Luo looked confused.

"Ren Zheng did well in the college entrance examination and was admitted to Qianjiang University this time." Lin Yuan muttered softly, "Fang Chen also worked hard, but his results are still far behind."

"Originally, the two of them agreed to let Fang Chen choose a local university, closer to Qianda."

"But Fang Chen's family disagreed and insisted on choosing a 211 university outside the province for him."

"Class monitor, you also know that in Qianjiang Province, except for Qian University, the other universities are shit. If you want to apply to other 985211 universities, you have to leave the province."

"So that's it for now."

After listening to this, Li Luo also sighed a little, then looked at Lin Yuan: "Is it still good for you and Hua Xiuxiu?"

"Hehe." Lin Yuan laughed happily and proudly twice, then waved his hand and went to find Hua Xiuxiu to sit together.

Li Luo watched Lin Yuan sit down next to Hua Xiuxiu, then looked at the other classmates, glancing at the familiar faces one by one, with some emotion in his eyes.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

I remember that during the summer vacation of their first year in high school, the students in their old Class 8 organized a class trip together to visit a farm.

At that time, there were already signs that Lin Yuan and Hua Xiuxiu, and Fang Chen and Ren Zheng were two couples.

But who could have thought that when it comes to graduation, some people will eventually get married, while others will be about to go their separate ways.

Moreover, it is still unknown whether Hua Xiuxiu and Lin Yuan can continue to be together during the four years of college, or even stay together until the end.

The road of life is long, and no one can guess how many storms and twists and turns there will be in the middle.

After looking around, Li Luo counted who had not arrived yet, then informed Ying Chanxi and the others and went to the door to pick them up.

In addition to Li Luo’s classmates, there are naturally also their relatives.

Li Guoru and his family will definitely come, including Li Luo’s aunts and cousins.

There is also the whole family of my second uncle and third uncle, who have to sit at three or four tables.

Then there is Lin Xiuhong, Li Luo’s uncle Lin Xiufeng, and grandparents.

As for Ying Chanxi, since the Ying family was originally moved here from other places by Grandpa Ying's generation, they only have one child, Ying Zhicheng.

So even though it was a graduation banquet for Ying Chanxi and Ying Chanxi, in fact only Grandpa Ying came from Ying Chanxi's side, and he sat with Li Luo's grandparents.

Ying Chanxi saw Li Luo going to the door to greet guests, so he put his bag on his and Li Luo's seats to reserve a seat, then stood up and went to the door to accompany him.

Li Luo's relatives sat at three tables, his classmates sat at three tables, and then there was Li Luo himself, three families of ten people sitting at one table.

"You're here." Ying Chanxi accompanied Li Luo and stood at the entrance of Hall No. 1. From a distance, they saw Xu Yinghuan walking towards them with two people's arms around him, one on each side.

Xu Yinghuan chuckled, let go of her hand, and waved to Li Luo and Ying Chanxi at the door.

Zhao Rongjun and Qiao Xinyan followed her on both sides and came to the entrance of the hall.

Qiao Xinyan was wearing a simple white short-sleeved shirt and long pants today. She stood quietly aside and nodded and greeted Ying Chanxi.

Xu Yinghuan took Zhao Rongjun's arm, greeted them both, then walked into the hall and found an empty seat at one of the three tables with her classmates.

Their relationship was revealed during their trip to Qiandao Lake, and Xu Yinghuan couldn't wait to announce it again in the class group.

So now all the students in the class know about it, and they are no longer surprised when they see the two of them walking in arm in arm.

Qiao Xinyan followed quietly and sat next to Xu Yinghuan, deliberately distancing herself from Zhao Rongjun.

Ying Chanxi turned his head and saw this scene, and pursed his lips with a bit of discomfort.

Li Luo, who was standing by, noticed Ying Chanxi's gaze and raised his hand to gently rub her head: "Are you still thinking about Xinyan?"

Ying Chanxi shook his head: "It's all in the past."

Almost a month has passed, and Ying Chanxi has come to terms with it. She only hopes that her best friend can get out of this shadow as soon as possible.

There are so many men in the world, you don't have to hang yourself on a tree.

When she goes to Qianjiang University and meets more outstanding boys, there will always be better love waiting for her.

Thinking of this, Ying Chanxi finally felt a little relieved.

Then she thought of Li Luo again, turned her head to glance at him, and couldn't help but hum.

"What's wrong again?" Li Luo looked at her somewhat puzzled.

"Nothing." Ying Chanxi said, and then asked, "Has everyone arrived? It's already half past five."

"Well, let's go in and prepare to serve the food." Li Luo nodded.

So the two of them turned and walked into the hall.

The next second, Ying Chanxi took the initiative to hug Li Luo's arm, plucked up the courage, and in front of dozens of people inside, he took Li Luo's arm and sat down at their seats.

After taking his seat, feeling the gazes of the people around him, Ying Chanxi's face had already turned red with embarrassment, his heart was pounding, and he felt like he was about to faint.

Li Luo felt as if there were thorns in his back. He felt that Ying Zhicheng, who was sitting opposite him, had a sharp gaze that was piercing him directly.

"Ahem... I'll go call the waiter to serve the food." Li Guohong coughed twice, looked at his good brother's eyes, then glanced at the expressions of Xu Rongsheng and Cui Suling on the other side. He felt something was wrong, so he quickly stood up and said.
