I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!

After watching it patiently for a while, I lost even more interest.

"No... sis, what is this? This is so melodramatic!"

After watching for a while, he couldn't hold back any longer. What "you love him" and "he loves her"? He just couldn't bear to watch anymore!

"You don't understand... Girls love reading this kind of stuff. I can't exactly write about fighting or something, no one would read that. Let me tell you, if you write in a female-oriented website, with your skills you might earn more. If you write well, they'll give you a lot of tips! Also, create a character card; if you develop the character well, they'll go crazy!"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true! Look, this one's number one on our website's female-oriented section, let me tell you..."

Her mouth was like a machine gun, and Ye Feng couldn't get a word in edgewise. But Ye Feng also became interested. Could this female-oriented online novel really earn that much money?

"I don't know how to do that either. Never mind, I'm fine as I am."

Although tempted, Ye Feng thought about it and gave up. He was fine as he was, there was no need to change. The phone in his mind did have some female-oriented books, but this website seemed to mainly feature male-oriented novels, and female-oriented novels weren't that popular.

"That's a pity. I was hoping to invite you to write novels on our website. If you write well, it will be easier for you to promote my books in the future."

I couldn't help but glance at my cousin; her idea was truly outrageous!

Just so someone would recommend her books, she actually wanted me to write a novel on their website. And, does she have that much confidence in herself?

Just as he was about to leave, Ye Feng remembered something else.

"Sis, do you have a spare computer? I need to type."

"Oh, I have a laptop, but it's a bit outdated, though it's still good for typing. I'll get it for you."

As he spoke, he took out a laptop and a charger from the cabinet next to him.

"If you don't like it, use this one; I'll use this one!"

Ye Feng didn't answer, but instead started staring at her shelf.

"Sis, why do you have so many keyboards?"

"I bought them! Like they say online, there are a lot of bad students with bad stationery. I saw some nice ones and wanted to buy them. See if you see anything you like; I'll give them to you!"

Ye Feng wasn't interested in these keyboards; he just thought, "Are you out of your mind? Why buy so many keyboards? One is enough!"

He was out of his mind when he picked that keyboard; he just picked the most expensive one. In the eyes of this internet cafe player, as long as the keyboard could be pressed, it didn't matter whether it was good or bad!

He just picked a keyboard randomly; he didn't know anything about switches, as long as it could be used for typing!

His cousin clearly didn't want to let him off the hook. She accompanied him back to his room, set up the computer, turned it on, and urged Ye Feng to log in to the backend.

Now that he already knew, Ye Feng didn't plan to hide it anymore. After all, he couldn't hide it anyway, so he might as well be more open about it. His uncle's family wasn't short of money, so the chances of them targeting him were slim. Besides, his uncle wouldn't agree to it anyway.

As soon as the computer was turned on, my cousin and his wife came upstairs. Seeing the two of them in front of the computer, they came over to watch the fun.

"Haha, Ye Feng, you still say you haven't been in a relationship? The way you write in your novels, even a dog wouldn't believe you haven't!"

Hearing this, her cousin went along with it.

"Yeah, yeah, it's written so sweetly. How many relationships have you been in? Don't worry, your uncle isn't here. Tell us about it."

"I really didn't discuss it! The plot just went as it was written. You...you guys can just consider it my own conclusion based on reading many novels!"

What else can I say? They're all so informal with each other!

Ye Feng logged into his account and, urged by the others, opened the backend, eager to see what the backend of this novel that could earn six figures a month looked like.

When the data came out, several heads crowded around the computer screen, each person counting on their fingers one by one, and then came the news of Earth warming up.

"Wow, you're amazing! It's just a romance novel, how can you make so much money!"

"You just don't understand, that's called talent! Look at these subscriptions, these donations, I'm so envious!"

My cousin was practically drooling over the data. She wouldn't even dare to dream of such a dream. If it were half, no, even a fifth, she would be ecstatic!

The group started discussing amongst themselves, and soon the topic shifted to their cousin, Ye Jing.

"Xiaojing, when will you be able to write a novel like this?"

"Hey, you think too highly of me. I guess it's impossible in this lifetime. By the way, Ye Feng, how many words do you plan to write for this book? It'll be the second semester of senior year after the New Year. Do you have time to write?"

"I'll just fill in the gaps in the code; I can't just leave it blank, I'd be reluctant to do it."

"That's true. Even after going to university, it's hard to imagine how long it would take to earn that much. I don't even know if I'll be able to earn that much with my next degree."

The older cousin commented that although he was a little envious of his younger cousin earning so much, it was just a small amount. In his opinion, it was like winning the lottery; you might win this time, but what about next time?

But my cousin clearly disagreed with this.

"You're wrong about that. Since Ye Feng's first novel had such good sales, even if his next one doesn't do as well, it won't be too bad. It'll earn more than our whole family combined. Just you wait, I'll write my next novel just like Ye Feng's, and the sales will definitely be great!"

"Come on, you've been writing for years, and you're not even making enough to support yourself. If you ask me, you should find a job!"

"Hey boss! You don't know anything! Don't...don't bully a poor girl!"

"Haha, still calling yourself a 'young girl'? You're almost thirty!"

My cousin's mouth is something else; he managed to break my cousin's nerves with just a few words, and then we went downstairs arguing.

My uncle just happened to come back at that moment. He drove the car into the yard, but as soon as he got out, my cousin's wife excitedly took over. This car is really good-looking!

"This vehicle... is it an electric car? Does it not require a driver's license?"

"No, it's just an electric mobility scooter."

The uncle chuckled and pulled Ye Feng aside to ask where he bought the car and how much it cost. If it weren't for the New Year, he probably would have driven one back right now. It cost around 20,000 yuan, which wasn't much for him. If he had this car, it would be convenient to go anywhere!

"This little gadget, isn't it afraid of being sued?"

My cousin sighed. He had seen this vehicle before. It wasn't common in the countryside. After all, an electric vehicle costs more than 20,000 yuan and can't carry much, so the cost-effectiveness is really not high.

"Haha, cousin, I actually did check, I sued, but I lost~"

"How could you lose like this?"

"Bro, think about it. The manufacturers of these things need to hire people, right? And they need to pay taxes, right? So do you think the local government would let a company like that lose? Those big-name car companies aren't going to pay taxes to the local government."

If you think about it a little, it's easy to see why: the manufacturer of this car must have taken precautions to avoid certain problems beforehand. Plus, with the protection of the local government, forget about fines; even if the court accepts the case, it's only because you're a large company.
