Chapter 51
Why are you following us? Chu Qingchan raised her eyelids slightly to see Chu Fengyi sitting between herself and Xu Ln.
Father asked me to supervise you. Otherwise, do you think I would willingly take this train ride?
Were just going out to shoot an advertisement; theres nothing to supervise.
If you two end up in Jinlng later, how will I know your situation? What if you end up sharing a bed?
Ch Fngy, watch what youre saying. Chql Qngchn also glared at her, but Ch Fengy seemed oblivious, continuing to look at her phone.
Alright, alright, if you want to come along, just come.
X Ln, werent you afraid of her coming to hit you a while ago? Youve been exercising for two days, and youre not afraid anymore? X Ln sensed a hint of sourness but felt a bit happy inside. No, no, this is called respecting the teacher and honoring the teachings.
Hmph! Seeing Ch Qingchn turn her head away, intentionally ignoring him, he turned his head to the left, sneakily glancing at Ch Fengys phone.
Because she wasnt chatting or watching videos but reading a book, it shouldnt be considered invading her privacy. She also noticed his gaze, raising her hand slightly to make it clearer for him to see. X Ln felt like crying.
After enduring a beating for so long, she finally showed me some kindness. I feel like crying. Wait, this seems like a novel, and it feels familiar.
Wait. What book are you reading?
I saw a book on the new book list yesterday. It doesnt have many words, but it seems quite good. The title is a bit strange; its called Is This Definitely Not Daily Life?!'
Its really his book. His book actually made it onto the new book list? He hadnt even noticed.
However, the collection speed has indeed increased a bit. Around 30 to 50 per day. Without any other recommendations and without having written other books, the cumulative number of fans has increased quite quickly.
But he didnt expect to attract a wealthy woman. Even if she wanted to give me a reward of tens of thousands of dollars, he wouldnt know how to accept it.
Do you think its good?
Its okay.
You wealthy woman, why not give a reward?
No, Im just browsing. Why spend money?
Chu Fengyis words made him feel awkward. Youre a wealthy woman! The first time we met, you transferred 100,000 yuan to compensate for my phone.
Seeing his expression, Chu Fengyi also frowned. Whats with that expression?
Not giving a reward is fine. Even if you have money, you shouldnt spend it recklessly. But its still important to support legitimate versions when reading books.
Of course, but I only read when I have free time, so Ive only subscribed to about forty or fifty books.
Is this what a big shot looks like?
Dont disturb me while Im reading. I told you the title; you can look it up on your phone.
Okay.
She lowered her head again and continued reading. Suddenly, Xu Lin slapped her arm, and instantly a surge of killing intent emanated from her.
After you finish speaking, Ill take you up again.
The way youre sitting damages your spine and neck. Youre still a teacher.
Hmph! Got it.
Seeing both sisters twisting their bodies, Xu Lin suddenly felt extremely bored despite sitting with two girls. But he wasnt idle either. He took out his phones memo and continued reviewing his lines; even though there werent many lines, he couldnt afford to mess up.
He also roughly understood the script. The advertisement was a public service short film mainly addressing issues faced by the deaf community. He played a boy who likes the deaf female lead, while Chu Qingchan played the main role, portraying a cold-hearted but warm-hearted teacher. So her acting skills would still be somewhat tested, but Xu Lin believed she shouldnt perform worse than before.
Arriving at their destination, they reached the lobby and saw several people holding signs, one of which read Broadcast 23. Chu Qingchan led the way.
Miss Chu Qingchan and two other guests, please follow me. Although Chu Qingchan wore a mask, the other party could still easily identify her. They left the station and smoothly boarded the business car arranged by the other party, heading towards the hotel.
Xu Lin noticed an unexpected message on QQ from his editor. It was rare for the editor to initiate a message. They were usually quite busy, only responding when it came to work matters. Before his rebirth, he had also signed contracts for two books. The results werent great, but not too bad either. Before graduating from university, his last book even sold the audio rights.
After receiving the money, he found out that his work had been sold without his knowledge, so he was quite curious.
The editors message began with a greeting: Id like to discuss something with you. Please reply when you see this.
Xu Lin immediately responded, Hello, whats the matter?
The other person replied promptly, Its about your novel. Its the first time Ive seen this style from you, and personally, I think theyre all very good.
Thank you.
And so, I recommended your book in our work group, and colleagues in one of the teams also think its good and has the potential to become popular.
So?
Were planning to promote you a bit, to start the recommendation process early and see how it goes.
Thats great news. Thanks for letting me know. Will there be any changes in terms of updates?
Yes, currently you update twice a day. I think you should continue with that after the promotion. If the data looks good, Ill give you a major recommendation.
So, Ill do three updates a day then. That sounds good. Ill make sure not to miss any updates, even if its tough.
Thank you so much for your hard work. Ill keep writing well. Im also one of your readers. Lets aim for 3k collections this week for the recommendation, and if possible, well go for a major category recommendation.
Ok.
After sending the messages, Xu Lins excited pupils dilated slightly, and the two girls beside him looked at him curiously.
Whats wrong? Are you nervous? Were just resting at the hotel tonight before shooting tomorrow, Chu Qingchan thought, nervous.
No, its about the novel.
Novel? What novel?! Chu Fengyi suddenly became interested.
I also write web novels. I just got some recommendations from my editor.
Oh, what book do you write? Let me see.
Chu Fengyi immediately smiled. Xu Lin could tell she probably thought his writing wasnt good, wanting to read a few chapters and then mock him.
Arent you already reading my book?
What?
The one youre reading, Is This Definitely Not Daily Life?!,
Really?
Yes.
So where is the protagonist heading after leaving the apartment?
I havent written that yet, but you can check out the backstage in the next few chapters.
Never mind! Ill just wait for your updates.
Chu Fengyi glanced at her phone and then tapped her forehead. This guy really has some skills.
As an ordinary person, having talents in martial arts aside, just being able to sing, write lyrics, and write novels is quite impressive, isnt it?
She had seen many geniuses, but she had never seen one with so many talents all concentrated in one person.
I didnt expect you to have talent in this area too.
Just writing for fun.
This book, on the surface, is a daily urban novel, but its actually a very rigorous suspense horror novel. I think it has great potential in the market.
Thanks for the praise, Master.
By the way, if your book really takes off, I can invest. What do you think?
Invest in what?
Buy it and turn it into a movie.
Are you sure? I think my book needs censorship even in the first 10 chapters.
Dont worry, you dont have to fret about censorship. Ill handle it.
Then Ill work hard. Who wouldnt want their work to make it to the big screen?
Although Xu Lin dismissed the other partys words as a joke, he still felt hopeful.
If it really takes off, could I sell the rights? How much could I make?
Actually, if conditions allow, hed rather invest himself, at least to preserve the original work, which is crucial!
But its still about money; I must find a way to make money! I never thought I, Xu Lin, would start worrying about making money.
But making money seems to be an unfulfilled wish from the past, right? So Ill just put in a little more effort, and Ill take this advertisement seriously, 1000%!
