15日，公众号“莫言”发布了推送《莫言：今天收到了余华的投稿》。在投稿截屏中，余华头像是之前曾在网上大火的“潦草小狗”，莫言的头像也同样是一张和其本人神似的小狗。

Nobel laureate Mo Yan released a post on his official Wechat account on Monday, titled "Mo Yan: Received a Submission from Yu Hua Today". In the screenshot of the submission, the avatar of Yu Hua, the esteemed contemporary Chinese author, is a "scruffy little dog" that went viral online, while Mo Yan's avatar is also a small dog, but one resembling himself. 

不少网友表示：一点开文章先被两位作家的头像可爱到了。

Many netizens said they were immediately charmed by the adorable avatars of the two authors.

此前，在韩国延世大学举办讲座中，余华也回应了网友称他为“潦草小狗”的梗。他说虽然自己当天穿着西装，但其实也是潦草小狗们穿的西装。之前在香港的时候，他本来以为是发型像就去剪了头，结果自己学生和他说“不是发型像，就是长得像”。

Yu Hua responded to jesting comments from internet users who humorously dubbed him a "scruffy little dog" during a lecture on Monday at Yonsei University in South Korea. He jokingly mentioned that even though he was wearing a suit that day, he was still a scruffy little dog in a suit. He recalled a previous incident in Hong Kong when he thought people were commenting on his hairstyle, so he went to get a haircut. However, his students corrected him by saying, "It's not your hairstyle; it's the way you look."
