Since we are all reborn, let’s arrest the senior!

Chapter 143 It's always like this

Lu Mingze gently ruffled Jiang Yun's hair and said, "Let's make an outline first. We can categorize the stories behind the photos according to timeline or theme. This will make the writing process clearer."

Jiang Yun's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, just like our trip. From the initial anticipation to the little things along the way, and life after we got back, every part has so many stories."

The two nestled on the sofa, the coffee table piled high with photos, the light from the computer screen illuminating their focused faces. Lu Mingze held a pen, writing subheadings in his notebook, while Jiang Yun would occasionally pick up a photo, recalling the scene and adding details.

“Look at this picture. When we were watching the sunset in Santorini, you whispered in my ear that you would accompany me to watch the sunset in a different place every year. I felt so sweet at that moment.” Jiang Yun’s cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes were full of happy memories.

Lu Mingze smiled and took her hand. "Of course, I remember all those promises."

As the outline gradually took shape, they began the formal writing process. Every day after get off work, Lu Mingze would rush home and sit at the desk with Jiang Yun. One of them would be responsible for recalling and organizing the text, while the other would help with research and polishing the sentences. Sometimes, they would argue heatedly over a single word, only to burst into laughter at the end.

"Although this word is very artistic, it doesn't quite fit the overall atmosphere here. How about we use a more down-to-earth expression?" Lu Mingze said, pointing to a line of text on the screen.

Jiang Yun tilted her head and thought for a while, "You're right, we still need to let the readers truly feel our feelings at that time."

The creative process was not always smooth sailing. Sometimes Jiang Yun would fall into a creative slump, staring blankly at the computer screen for a long time. Whenever this happened, Lu Mingze would gently take her hand and take her for a walk.

The streets were brightly lit at night, and the two walked hand in hand aimlessly. A gentle breeze blew, and Jiang Yun's hair fluttered lightly. Lu Mingze would gently tuck her hair behind her ear. "Don't rush, let's relax a bit, maybe inspiration will come," Lu Mingze comforted her softly.

Jiang Yun leaned on his shoulder, "Yeah, with you by my side, I feel much more at ease."

On a moonlit night, they walked to the park they used to visit together. The park benches were still the same. Lu Mingze pulled Jiang Yun to sit down and took a small box out of his pocket. "Do you remember this?" He opened the box; inside was a hair clip that Jiang Yun had accidentally left behind on their first date, which Lu Mingze had kept all this time.

Jiang Yun covered her mouth in surprise, "You actually kept it!"

Lu Mingze gently put the hair clip on her head. "This is one of the testaments to our love. Seeing it reminds me of how adorable you were back then."

The moonlight shone on them, as if draping them in a dreamy veil. At this moment, Jiang Yun's inspiration flowed like a spring, and many stories about the hair clip floated into her mind. She couldn't wait to pull Lu Mingze home, wanting to record these inspirations.

As the writing progressed, the stories in the book became richer and richer, and their feelings for each other deepened in the process.

One day, while tidying up her old things, Jiang Yun found a high school diary. It contained her dreams about future love and some naive thoughts. Blushing, she handed the diary to Lu Mingze, saying, "Look at this, I was so immature back then."

Lu Mingze took the diary and carefully flipped through it page by page, a smile occasionally playing on his lips. "No, this is precious. This is all your past, and it's the foundation for our love. Perhaps some of the thoughts in this diary have unknowingly influenced your choice of me," he said earnestly.

Jiang Yun leaned on his shoulder, "Maybe so. Fate is really amazing; it brought us together."

While they were fully immersed in their creative work, Lu Mingze's project also entered a crucial phase. The project was nearing its final stage, requiring him to frequently work late into the night.

Although Jiang Yun felt a little disappointed, she knew this project was very important to Lu Mingze, so she always silently supported him. Every night, she would prepare a late-night snack and wait for Lu Mingze to come home.

When Lu Mingze wearily pushed open the door and saw Jiang Yun's gentle smile and the steaming food on the table, much of his fatigue from the day instantly dissipated. "You've worked hard, eat something to replenish your energy," Jiang Yun said considerately.

Lu Mingze sat down and took her hand. "Thank you, Yunyun. I really don't know what I would have done without your support."

Jiang Yun gently shook her head, "We are one, your business is my business. When you are busy with work, I will spend more time on my books. After you finish this period, we will work hard together again."

However, the pressure of writing still left Jiang Yun somewhat exhausted. One day, while writing, she suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell.

Upon learning this, Lu Mingze immediately put down his work and rushed home to take her to the hospital. At the hospital, Lu Mingze anxiously accompanied Jiang Yun through various tests, his eyes filled with worry. "Doctor, how is she? Is she too tired?" Lu Mingze asked anxiously.

After examining the patient, the doctor smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. You've just been working too hard lately. You need to rest well and pay attention to balancing work and rest."

Lu Mingze breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Jiang Yun and said with heartache, "It's all my fault for not taking good care of you. From now on, you must rest on time every day, and you can't push yourself too hard with your writing."

Seeing his anxious expression, Jiang Yun felt a warmth in her heart. "I know, I'll be careful, don't worry."

After returning from the hospital, Lu Mingze took even better care of Jiang Yun. Every morning he would get up early to prepare a nutritious breakfast for her, and every evening he would take her for a walk in the park to breathe fresh air. Under his attentive care, Jiang Yun recovered quickly.

To help Jiang Yun relax, Lu Mingze planned a surprise picnic one weekend. He prepared Jiang Yun's favorite foods in advance and found a beautiful spot in the suburbs to set up a cozy picnic area.

When Jiang Yun saw all this, she was moved to tears. "Mingze, you're so kind, thank you for everything you've done for me." She hugged Lu Mingze tightly.

Lu Mingze gently patted her back, "As long as you're happy, anything I do is worth it."

During their picnic, they lay on the grass, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, reminiscing about the journey they had taken.

“Once our book is published, let’s go to Santorini again and bring it to the people there, so they can also feel our love,” Jiang Yun said wistfully.

Lu Mingze took her hand. "Okay, it's settled then. We'll go to more places, create more memories, and write more stories."

The two looked at each other and laughed, their laughter echoing across the open grassland.

As time went by, their book finally completed its first draft. When the last word was typed, Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze embraced each other excitedly.

“We did it, Mingze!” Jiang Yun’s voice trembled slightly. Lu Mingze gently stroked her hair. “Yes, this is our joint achievement, the fruit of our love.”

Next, they began contacting publishers, hoping to bring the book to readers as soon as possible. However, the process was not smooth; they received rejection letters from several publishers, which frustrated them.

"Is it because our writing is really bad? Why is no one willing to publish it?" Jiang Yun said somewhat dejectedly.

Lu Mingze held her hand and said firmly, "Don't be discouraged, this is only temporary. Our story is beautiful, and someone will eventually discover it. Let's try other publishers."

Encouraged by Lu Mingze, Jiang Yun rallied. They continued revising the manuscript, optimizing the content based on suggestions from some editors.

Finally, after submitting their manuscript, they received a reply from a publisher who was very interested in their book and willing to publish it.

When Jiang Yun received the call, she jumped up excitedly and immediately told Lu Mingze the good news. Lu Mingze was also thrilled, and the two decided to celebrate that night.

At the restaurant, they ordered a lavish meal and opened a bottle of champagne. "A toast to our book, and to our love!" Lu Mingze raised his glass, smiling at Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun also raised her glass, her eyes glistening with happy tears, "Cheers!"

The book was warmly received by readers after its publication. Many people were moved by their love story and shared their thoughts online. Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze felt a great sense of accomplishment as they read the comments.

"I never imagined our story could bring warmth and strength to so many people," Jiang Yun said with emotion.

Lu Mingze gently hugged her, "This is all because our love is real and beautiful. I hope we can continue to inspire more people with our love in the future."

As their book became a bestseller, some media outlets began to pay attention to them. A television station invited them to do an interview program to share their love story and creative experience.

At the recording of the program, Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze held hands, their faces beaming with happy smiles.

The host asked them, "What do you think is the most important thing in love?"

Lu Mingze looked at Jiang Yun and said affectionately, "It's about mutual understanding, support, and companionship. When we encounter difficulties, we always have each other by our side, facing them and overcoming them together."

Jiang Yun nodded in agreement, "And we should also cherish every moment, because these moments together make up our lifelong happiness."

Their answer won enthusiastic applause from the audience.

After the show aired, their popularity soared, and some couples even took them as role models and began recording their own love stories. Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze also frequently received letters from readers, one of which particularly moved them.

The letter was written by a girl who was about to get married. She said that after reading their book, she was full of anticipation for her future married life and hoped that they could attend her wedding. Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze agreed without hesitation.

On their wedding day, the gentle sunlight bathed the earth, draping the world in a golden veil. Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze, meticulously dressed, drove their exquisitely maintained luxury car to the wedding venue. Lu Mingze, in a sharp suit, stood tall and imposing; Jiang Yun, in an elegant gown, resembled a blooming rose. Inside the car, the air was filled with sweetness and anticipation.

As their car slowly drove into the wedding venue's parking lot, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. Most of the cars parked around were ordinary vehicles, making their luxury car stand out conspicuously. Some of the wedding guests cast envious glances and whispered among themselves.

"Whose car is this? It looks so expensive."

"I guess they're very important friends of the bride and groom."

These whispers reached Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze's ears. They exchanged a smile, not paying much attention, simply enjoying this unexpected little episode where they became the center of attention.

Hand in hand, they walked into the wedding venue, immediately enveloped by the exquisite decorations and lively atmosphere. The newlyweds gazed deeply into each other's eyes on the stage, exchanging vows. Their blissful expressions reminded Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze of their own journey together, filling them with emotion.

Halfway through the wedding, the bride and groom came over to offer toasts. The groom smiled and said, "Thank you for coming. My wife and I have both read your book, and we were deeply moved. Seeing you in person today is even sweeter than what's described in the book!"

The bride chimed in, "Yes, and the car you drove was so cool, it instantly elevated the level of our wedding."

Lu Mingze responded modestly, "The car is just a means of transportation; the main purpose is to witness your happy moment." Although he spoke modestly, the joy of being praised still quietly spread in his heart.

After the toasts were finished, Jiang Yun wanted to touch up her makeup, so she headed towards the restroom. As she passed the rest area, she overheard a conversation between several girls.

"That couple who arrived in their luxury car must have written a really popular love story."

"Really? I'm so envious. She's rich, talented, and has such a wonderful love life."

Jiang Yun blushed slightly and tiptoed past, but her heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.

Back in their seats, Lu Mingze noticed her unusual expression and asked softly, "What's wrong? Your face is so red." Jiang Yun leaned closer to him and whispered what she had heard. Lu Mingze couldn't help but chuckle. "Looks like our car stole the show today." He reached out and gently pinched Jiang Yun's cheek, his eyes full of affection.

As the wedding drew to a close, guests began to leave. Jiang Yun and Lu Mingze also got up to go home. When they reached the parking lot, they found a group of young people gathered around their car, looking at it with curiosity. Seeing them approach, one of the boys said somewhat shyly, "Excuse me, we just thought this car was so cool and wanted to take a picture. You don't mind, do you?" Lu Mingze waved his hand generously, "It's fine, go ahead and take the picture."
