Chapter Forty-Nine: Everything is Under Control

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

early morning.

For the past three days, Hu Tao and Xiang Ling have been nowhere to be seen, I don't know what they've been up to.

So, apart from bringing coconut milk for Qiqi, she almost always stayed at home.

Qiqi's memories of her became increasingly vivid.

As for the quill pen, she only tried it once and then threw it aside without ever using it again.

However, even though it was just a trial, the handwriting with the quill pen was much better than that with the brush pen.

of course.

This is not to say that a quill pen is better than a brush pen, but rather that she never used a brush pen in her previous life. Even if she had memories of using a brush pen, they conflicted with her previous life's habits, which is why her writing was so messy.

The quill pen, on the other hand, is closer to the usage habits of the previous life.

"Well."

Fang Qiu sat up in bed, still half asleep, and immediately felt a cool sensation on her chest. Without even looking down, she knew the state of her clothes.

Slender, pale fingers gently hooked the white bra strap that had slipped off her rounded shoulders and pulled it back onto her shoulders. The bra also returned to her shoulders along with the strap, covering the large expanse of skin that had been exposed to the air once again.

She looked out the window at the slightly overcast sky and her delicate brows furrowed slightly.

"Speaking of which, isn't today the book launch day?"

My brief period of being a couch potato is about to end.

Once the results for "Eternal" are in, it will be time to write a new book.

After all, one can't be a couch potato forever.

We must be mindful of potential dangers even in times of peace.

The selection of material for the new book is not a problem.

She has prepared several candidate books, but hasn't decided which one to choose yet.

I plan to wait for feedback in the next couple of days before making a decision.

Meanwhile, at Wanwen Collection House.

With numerous novel enthusiasts gathering, in order to prevent malicious competition between shops, Liyue's bookstores must not open until a specified time has elapsed during the period when new books are released.

In order to buy their favorite novels as soon as possible, many people lined up early to wait for the new books to be released.

The proprietress, Ji Fang, was somewhat shocked as she looked at the long queue downstairs.

This number is almost double the number of people who came to buy books last time.

Of course, she wouldn't be so foolish as to think that it was because her business had grown bigger and stronger.

According to her guess, it must be because Yuheng Keqing and the Seven Stars' chief secretary Gan Yu from Liyue bought their books from her before, which is why her business is so booming.

Of course, besides that, it is also very likely that Fang Qiu's books inspired many young people to fall in love with novels.

Of course, among these young people, there are also many supporters of Ke Qing and Gan Yu.

However, compared to the previous shortage of stock, many customers went to other bookstores to buy books.

This time, she put in a lot of effort and pre-ordered a large number of books.

At first, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to sell them all, but now that she sees the long queue, she's more worried about whether there will be enough.

"Speaking of which, what books do you guys buy? Are you still buying that old scoundrel Qiu's books?"

"Of course I won't buy it. Last time in April, your lies almost made me depressed."

"Okay, then I won't buy it."

"You're all not buying anything? I don't believe it unless you say that the people of Liyue don't lie to the people of Liyue."

"Ahem, I just thought about it carefully. Actually, Fang Qiu has only written one book that is angsty. This one is not bad to buy and read. After all, Fang Qiu's control over words and plot is still very good."

"Ahem, what you said does make some sense. Last time, our book club sent a negative review to the publisher. I suppose she'll tone it down a bit with this book."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

At that moment, in the long queue, a pretty girl struck up a conversation with the young man in front of her.

"Excuse me, sir, what kind of books do you like to read? Do you have any recommendations?"

"Of course it's number one on the sales charts, The Record of the Fall of Shenxiao. That damn author, the last volume just ended at the most exciting part, it made me so anxious."

"Uh, I see. And you, sir?"

After hearing the young man's words, the girl smiled awkwardly, turned to look at him, and said...

"Of course it's Fang Qiu's 'Your Lie in April.' Both the writing and the plot are top-notch. However, I'm here to buy Ms. Fang Qiu's new book."

"That's such a coincidence, I also really like Miss Fang Qiu's books."

"It seems we share the same interests. How about we find a teahouse together later to chat and read the new book? I'll pay for the tea."

“Great! I only recently started reading novels, and I was hoping to find like-minded book lovers at this new book launch. We can have a good chat about the details of ‘Your Lie in April’ later.”

The man and woman chatted happily, while the young man who had been questioned earlier could only stare blankly as the two of them became increasingly happy.

"Hey bro, I also love 'The Legend of the Divine Firmament'. How about we buy the new volume later and find a place to read it together? But teahouses are quite noisy. How about we go to my place? We can just sleep when we get tired of reading."

The young man turned around and saw a bald man with a muscular physique looking at him with a friendly expression.

"Ahem, no need. Actually, I don't like 'The Record of the Broken Halberd of Shenxiao' that much."

The young man awkwardly refused.

At the same time, he made a decision in his heart that in order to make it easier to talk to the girl later, he would also buy two of Fang Qiu's books and study them carefully.

Wow, there are so many people.

Hu Tao and Xiang Ling were at the end of the long queue. Looking at the long queue in front of them, Hu Tao couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"I told you to hurry up, but now we're probably going to have to wait here for ages."

Xiangling glared at Hu Tao and said.

"Oh, don't be angry. I'll treat you to candied hawthorns later."

Hu Tao said with a grin, "This time, I'm going to buy forty copies to give as a treat to everyone at Wangsheng Hall."

"Then I'll buy five copies too."

Xiangling glanced at her wallet, where Mora was almost gone after buying so much food, and sighed.

Just as they were chatting, a commotion suddenly broke out in the line ahead.

The time has come, and Wanwen Collection House is open for business.

"Give me a copy of 'Eternal Ship,' then another copy of 'The Domineering Fairy Falls in Love with Me,' and then another copy of 'April Is Your Promise.' Um, not a lie, but a promise. That one over there, yes, yes, that one."

"I want a copy of 'The Record of the Broken Halberd of Shenxiao'."

"I need a divine book..."

Finally, it was the young man's turn. He stepped forward and started to speak, but then he heard a man and a woman behind him expressing their anticipation for Fang Qiu's new book, and his voice suddenly stopped.

"The Record of the Broken Halberd of Shenxiao?"

Ji Fang asked.

"No, I want a copy of 'Your Lie in April' and a copy of 'Eternal,' thank you."

The young man gritted his teeth.

You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.

While he was queuing, he kept thinking about how he could be as good as the guy behind him and strike up a conversation with a fellow novel enthusiast.

He thought about it for a long time before he finally understood.

That means if you can't beat them, you have to join them!

He decided to buy the book later and sit in Wanwen Bookstore to read it, waiting for someone like the girl from before, who wanted to find like-minded book lovers to come and chat with him.

As for the Divine Firmament Broken Halberd Record, I'll buy it later.

After all, it's too incongruous to have these three books together.

I paid the Mora, took two books, chose a nice spot, ordered a cup of fragrant and refreshing tea, and then quietly opened Fang Qiu's "Eternal".

As for why he chose the Eternal, it was a decision he made after careful consideration.

Read new things, not old things.

Most of the girls were longtime readers of Fang Qiu's previous book.

Therefore, reading new books will make them more talkable.

Everything is under control!

The young man's lips curled into a smile.

Chapter Fifty: Who gave you, you ugly freak, to object?

At this moment, at the docks of Liyue Harbor.

On the Southern Cross fleet, aboard the Death Star.

Beidou sat on the gunwale, dressed in a red fitted outfit, her hair tied up with a hairpin.

A sea breeze blew by, ruffling the black hair at her temples.

"Boss, all the ships are ready."

Kaedehara Manyo leaped down from the observation platform, and amidst the swirling, invisible wind elements, he landed steadily in front of Hokuto.

"understood."

Beidou took a sip of wine, stood up on the ship's railing, and shouted, "Men, let's set off!"

"Yes!"
