I write novels in Liyue

The long-haired girl glanced at the book slightly damp in the hand of the girl whose face was sprayed with tea, a hint of surprise appearing in her eyes, and asked.

"You're watching too, young lady?"

The young woman surnamed Li, who had been sprayed with tea and was initially displeased, softened her expression and asked.

"Yes, I'm a big fan of Fang Qiu's books, I read every single one of them."

The long-haired girl nodded, then her eyelids drooped somewhat sadly as she said, "But none of my friends read books... I've always read by myself..."

"Shall we watch it together?"

The young woman surnamed Li smiled and said.

"Okay, okay, let's go somewhere else."

The long-haired girl's eyes lit up, and she said.

"Ah."

The young woman surnamed Li nodded, politely said goodbye to the man, and then followed the long-haired woman out of the teahouse.

Upon seeing this, the man immediately panicked.

"Miss Li, please wait..."

He quickly stood up and called out.

Silence was all that remained of the answer.

"Let's find a place to wash our faces."

"Ah."

"Your clothes are stained with some tea. How about we go to the public bathhouse? We can change while we're there. My house is nearby, and we're about the same size, so why don't we go take a bath and change together?"

"By the way, young lady, what's your name?"

"My surname is Zi, and my given name is..."

The two chatted as they left the teahouse, leaving the man sitting alone in a chair, looking dejected.

silence.

After a long silence, he grabbed the copy of "Grand Blue" and was about to throw it into the trash can next to him.

However, once he had the book in his hands, he hesitated.

He had just started reading this book, and it was so interesting that he laughed so hard he spat out his tea after only reading the beginning...

It can be said to be a rare and excellent comedy novel. Both the plot and the writing style are quite outstanding and very much in line with his wishes.

That's why he couldn't help but spit out his tea just now...

It would be a shame to just throw it away like this, ruining the whole story...

What should we do then?

So all we can do is keep watching...

I can't just throw this book away and buy another one...

He looked at the author's name on the cover of "Grand Blue" in his hand and gritted his teeth fiercely.

This guy called Cat Fairy...

He remembered this grudge!

And that author named Fang Qiu!

The girl he finally managed to get a date with was snatched away by another woman who was also reading Fang Qiu's novels...

Damn it!

He remembered this grudge too!

If Fang Qiu and Cat Fairy ever have a book signing event in the future, I will definitely slip a caterpillar inside the book and ask them to sign it!

Then get your revenge!

Thinking of this, a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips once again.

He was already eager to see Fang Qiu or Cat Fairy get so scared by the caterpillar that it would fall backward in its chair and tumble over.

At this moment, the girl surnamed Li realized that she had overreacted and wanted to stop and turn around to invite the other person to read a book together.

However, as soon as she turned around, she saw the man who had just felt somewhat guilty lower his head again, looking at "Grand Blue" in his hands, with a triumphant smile on his lips.

Upon seeing this, the young woman surnamed Li's expression immediately turned cold.

This guy definitely made me look bad on purpose!

The others around also saw the man's smile, and those who had initially felt some sympathy for him began to despise him.

As if sensing the unusual atmosphere around him, he looked up and saw that Miss Li, who had already turned around, turned back with a cold expression and walked away with Miss Zi.

Seeing this, the man's hand holding the book trembled slightly...

Those watching couldn't help but wonder what kind of book could have driven this brother to such inhumanity.

He immediately started reading a book after being given the cold shoulder by the girl...

"Is it really that good? Grand Blue? Who wrote it? Hmm... Cat Fairy..."

"I've never heard of this name before. Could it be a new author?"

"There should be far fewer people in the bookstore now, right? I'll go buy a copy and take a look. After all, there's nothing good to read after I've finished Fang Qiu's books..."

"Judging from his expression just now, he probably didn't intentionally spray the girl's face with water. It's more like he was reading something in a book and couldn't help but laugh..."

"A comedy novel, huh? I just finished reading Fang Qiu's book and I'm feeling a bit down. I'll relax with this book."

"I don't recommend doing this. After all, a sad mood will affect the comedic effect. However, the cover doesn't look like a comedy book... It's more like the youth romance genre that Fang Qiu popularized."

"Whatever, romance novels are quite popular with girls, so I might as well buy some and take a look."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Many novel enthusiasts who had finished reading Fang Qiushu's novels got up and headed towards the nearby bookstore.

"Grand Blue, huh? Sounds interesting. That man hasn't even thrown the book away yet. I have a feeling, Fang Qiu, you might have a formidable rival coming along?"

Sister Ying smiled and said.

"Cough cough..."

Fang Qiu, who was sympathizing with the man while drinking her milk tea, choked on Ying'er's words and felt a little embarrassed. She paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "Sister Ying'er, there are countless excellent authors in Liyue. If that's the case, I have a lot of formidable rivals."

"That's hard to say. Given your popularity in Liyue, there aren't many who can be considered your formidable rivals."

"Sister Ying'er said."

"Alright, Sister Ying'er, stop teasing me."

Fang Qiu said somewhat awkwardly.

"Alright, let's get down to business. I'll keep an eye out for your domestic servant position. If there isn't a suitable candidate, little sister Fang Qiu, you should definitely keep an eye on me."

Sister Ying'er said while taking a small sip of the milk tea.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Ying'er."

Seeing Ying'er's action, Fang Qiu's pretty face turned bright red again, and she subconsciously shrank back.

Chapter 524 You Scoundrel, You Schemed Against Me!

People came and went outside Wanmin Hall, and the street was bustling with activity.

The owner of the offal shop next to Wanmintang was tasting the offal made by his apprentice as soon as a group of customers left.

"It looks pretty good. Have you tried it yourself?"

The boss asked as he picked up his chopsticks.

Meanwhile, inside the Wanmin Hall.

The diners at each table ate with sweat pouring down their faces, but their faces were beaming with joy.

At the table by the window, the table was laden with fine wine and food.

"I'm happy today, so don't worry about status or etiquette. Just eat to your heart's content."

Hu Tao waved his hand.

"Then, thank you very much, Hall Master."

Zhongli nodded slightly.

Beside him, Yi Guan and Lao Meng thanked him.

"Hu Tao, Mr. Zhongli, and the other two, today's ingredients include Qingquanlin pork. Should we replace the salt and pepper tofu in the set meal?"

Xiangling and Guoba brought over two plates of food.

"No need, I'm already..."

Zhongli paused mid-sentence, sensing Hu Tao's slightly unfriendly gaze, and said, "Let the Hall Master decide."

"No need to change, we want both. By the way, Xiangling, have you and Guoba watched Fang Qiu's latest animated short film?"

Hu Tao looked expectant and asked.

"I watched it, I watched it! As expected of Fang Qiu, the animated short film is really well done. The story of 'Sky Meteor' is also great. Kiana's growth made me cry. And..."

Walnut, you did a great job too.

Xiangling praised.

"After all, he is the head of this hall."

Hu Tao said with a smile, "By the way, you and Guoba should sit down and eat with us too."

"No, no, you guys eat. The kitchen still needs me and Guoba to help out."

Xiangling said.

"Lulu lulu".

Guoba waved to Zhongli.
