Zongman: The Qilin Child of Xuanyuan Family

Chapter 230: The meeting between Teacher Xia Shizi and Teacher Ning Zhou

Is Teacher Ning Zhou already downstairs?

Machida Sonoko looked at the message sent to her by the other party in the Line chat with a dazed look on her face.

With first-rate writing and plot coupled with top-notch illustrations, Fuzuigawa Bunko shouldn't be the other party's first choice.

That night, she added Teacher Ning Zhou's line number with the idea of ​​giving it a try, but she never thought that the teacher would actually come here to have a face-to-face interview with her.

And it came at the perfect time...

Thank you for your great help, Teacher Ning Zhou.

Machida Yuanzi replied to Teacher Ning Zhou on Line, asking him to wait for a moment and she would go down to pick him up personally.

After being politely rejected by the other party, Machida Sonoko accurately sent the teacher the floor where the Fuzugawa Bunko was located and the editorial department where she worked, and repeatedly expressed her gratitude to the teacher.

Although the light novel "The Time My Fiancé Spoiled Me" has not yet been released, Machida Sonoko is confident that it will be a huge hit.

The light novel market is very distorted. Some novels rely on writing style and plot to retain readers, while others rely on exquisite and erotic illustrations to attract readers.

When it has both and is extremely suitable for the market, its success is certain.

Machida Sonoko put a lot of effort into dealing with Teacher Ning Zhou, the "golden hen that lays golden eggs."

"Teacher Kasumi Shiko, would you like to reconsider this?"

After making an appointment with Teacher Ning Zhou on Line to meet later, Machida Yuanzi put her phone back on the table and looked seriously at Kasumigaoka Utaha who was sitting opposite her and had not left yet.

The past was before and the present is now.

The arrival of Teacher Ning Zhou rekindled the extinguished fire in Machida Yuanzi's heart.

The light novels written by teachers Kasumi Shiko and Ning Zhou belong to the same genre, both of which are pure love stories of youth campus, so they must have common topics.

The reason why Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't continue writing the second volume was probably because she had no fellow Taoists to walk alongside her and give her too many opinions and ideas.

Now that Mr. Ning Zhou is coming, it is possible that Kasumigaoka Utaha may find inspiration from Mr. Ning Zhou to continue writing the content of the previous volume of "Love Metronome".

"Is it because of the colleague that Editor Machida was talking to just now?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had finally made up her mind, frowned slightly.

The change in Machida Sonoko's attitude was an epic one, causing Kasumigaoka Utaha to start wondering who the person who had just been chatting with Machida Sonoko was.

Even with such a resolute attitude, Machida Sonoko wanted to continue persuading herself.

"Yes." Machida Sonoko nodded: "If it is okay, please wait a few minutes, Teacher Kasumi Shiko."

Teacher Ning Zhou was just downstairs, so it didn’t take too long to take the elevator upstairs.

Machida Sonoko is still thinking about Kasumigaoka Utaha until now.

"Editor Machida, do you think the other party can persuade me?" Kasumigaoka Utaha saw what Machida Sonoko was thinking.

"That teacher also writes about romance and school love. I think Ms. Kasumi Shion will have common topics with her." Machida Sonoko looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha with a smile.

"I understand."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded and sat down on the leather sofa for people to rest, making room for conversation.

Machida Sonoko's kindness made Kasumigaoka Utaha not want to let her down.

In addition, she also wanted to see who the other party was, and she gave Editor Machida the illusion that the other party could convince her.

The door of the editorial office was pushed open from the outside, and the sound of the door opening attracted the attention of Machida Sonoko and Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"Teacher Ning Zhou, you..." Machida Yuanzi stood up and started to greet.

A man and three women outside the door walked in together, leaving Machida Sonoko dumbfounded.

Machida Sonoko had no idea whether Teacher Ning Zhou was a man or a woman, or what he looked like.

The content of her conversations with the teacher was all about light novels and future directions, and she never asked about any of the teacher's personal matters.

This also resulted in her being unable to tell which of the four people who came in was the teacher Ning Zhou she was waiting for.

"Senpai-kun, Mahiru-san?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha was also dumbfounded. She never expected that the teacher that Machida Sonoko was talking about would be Shiina Mahiru.

Kasumigaoka Utaha knew that Shiina Mahiru was writing a light novel, so Xuanyuan Ning even traded the outline of the first volume of "Love Metronome" with her.

But isn’t Shiina Mahiru’s publishing speed a little too fast?

How long has it been? Ever since Shiina Mahiru first learned about light novels, it's only been a month at most... and already the first volume is finished, and Machida Sonoko is so excited?

"Senior Kasumigaoka? What a coincidence." Shiina Mahiru was also surprised when she saw Kasumigaoka Utaha. She didn't know that Kasumigaoka Utaha was also in the Fuzugawa Bunko.

The reason why she chose to submit "The Matter of My Fiancé Spoiling Me" to Fushigawa Bunko was entirely because Xuanyuan Ning asked her to submit it.

[Ning, you have bad intentions!]

No wonder when I asked Xuanyuan Ning which one to invest in, Xuanyuan Ning did not choose one of the "Big Three", but instead asked me to go to Fuzuigawa Bunko.

Xuanyuan Ning clearly wanted to see himself competing with Kasumigaoka Utaha to satisfy the boy's evil taste!

Shiina Mahiru understood everything in an instant and squeezed the big hand holding hers hard to express her protest.

"Senior sister, what a coincidence." Xuanyuan Ning Chaoxia Zhiqiu Shiyu smiled.

Feeling someone hugging his arm, Xuanyuan Ning turned his head to look at Kasugano Sora.

Kasugano Sora's two slender arms were tightly holding Xuanyuan Ning's arms, and she looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha who was sitting on the sofa with a vigilant look.

[A thieving cat! Another thieving cat!]

Kasugano Sora stayed close to Xuanyuan Ning, trying her best to prevent Xuanyuan Ning from going to Kasumigaoka Shiyu to reminisce about the past.

"Hello, Editor Machida, I'm Ning Zhou."

Without paying too much attention to Kasumigaoka Utaha for too long, Shiina Mahiru came here today for an important matter, and immediately bowed politely to Machida Sonoko.

"You are so kind, Mr. Ning Zhou."

Machida Sonoko bowed back, with her palm facing upwards towards the seat opposite her, inviting Shiina Mahiru to sit down and talk in detail.

Shiina Mahiru's super high appearance has made Machida Sonoko even more excited about the light novel "That Time My Fiancé Spoiled Me".

If the author of the light novel is a handsome or beautiful person, it is also a plus.

A fan who only loves looks is still a fan.

Don’t worry about whether readers like your light novels or your looks.

As long as someone is willing to pay for your light novel, he is your loyal reader.

"Mahiru-chan, can I take a look at your light novel?" After Shiina Mahiru and Machida Sonoko formally introduced each other, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked.

The relationship between the two is at the level of a gentleman's friendship that is as light as water.

Kasumigaoka Utaha only knew that Shiina Mahiru was writing a light novel, but she didn't know what the content of the light novel written by Shiina Mahiru was.

Coupled with the change in Machida Sonoko's attitude, Kasumigaoka Utaha was really curious.

What kind of light novel would make Machida Sonoko change her mind and feel that Shiina Mahiru could "convince" her?

Chapter 231 How do I learn this? You want me to live with my junior, right?

"this..."

Machida Sonoko felt a little embarrassed when she saw Kasumigaoka Utaha's idea of ​​borrowing Shiina Mahiru's light novel to read.

It is very presumptuous to ask to borrow someone else's light novel before the light novel of the same colleague is released.

unfathomable,

No one can guarantee that their peers will "borrow" the content of their own novels after reading their light novels.

When your peers publish content that borrowed from yours, will it be considered that you plagiarized them, or that they plagiarized you?

Even if both parties don't mind, what should they do if the readers below see similar content and start arguing with each other?

Originally, the light novels of Shiina Mahiru and Kasumigaoka Utaha are in the same field, so there is a high probability that fans of both sides will meet in the future.

"No problem, Kasumigaoka-san." Shiina Mahiru agreed and gave Editor Machida a gentle smile. "Editor Machida, is there a printer here? I left in a hurry today and didn't bring the manuscript with me."

"Yes, Mr. Ning Zhou, I'll do it."

Seeing that the person involved, Shiina Mahiru, agreed, Editor Machida flipped through the original manuscript sent by Shiina Mahiru on his computer at such a high speed that the mouse left afterimages and quickly printed it out.

Editor Machida had long had the idea of ​​having Kasumigaoka Utaha read light novels by Shiina Mahiru to find inspiration.

But her identity as an editor of the Busei Bunko prevents her from doing so.

Now with Shiina Mahiru's permission, editor Machida is also happy to see it happen.

I hope that after reading Shiina Mahiru's light novel, Kasumigaoka Utaha will change her mind and return to the track of pure love 1V1.

Harem Shura Field or something...

Kasumigaoka Utaha, a rookie who has never been in love, can't grasp it at all.

"Can you print a copy for me as well?" Xuanyuan Ning, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, asked.

"No problem." Editor Machida agreed directly.

Xuanyuan Ning came in hand in hand with Shiina Mahiru. Considering Shiina Mahiru's light novel name, Machida Yuanzi knew what the relationship between the two was without any hesitation.

Adhering to the idea that she must not ruin her relationship with Teacher Ning Zhou, Machida Sonoko clicked her mouse faster.

In Machida Yuanzi's eyes, Teacher Ning Zhu is no longer just a beautiful girl.

The other party is her achievement, the down payment for her house, and her future dowry.

"Is that all right?"

Xuanyuan Ning looked at Kasugano Sora, who was still holding his arms and sitting in the middle of the sofa, separating him from Kasumigaoka Utaha.

After hearing that Kasumigaoka Utaha wanted to borrow light novels, Kasugano Sora unconsciously tightened her arms around Xuanyuan Ning's arm, making Xuanyuan Ning understand that Kasugano Sora was also interested in the light novels written by Shiina Mahiru.

"Yeah. Onii-chan, that's the best!" Kasugano Sora rested her head on Xuanyuan Ning's shoulder, her eyebrows curved.

She didn't say anything, but Xuanyuan Ning understood everything.

This feeling is so good.

"Junior, who is this sister?"

Handing one of the printed copies given to her by Machida Sonoko to Xuanyuan Ning, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked puzzled.

Utaha Kasumigaoka had been to Xuanyuan Ning's villa. At that time, there were only Xuanyuan Ning and Shiina Mahiru in the villa. Utaha Kasumigaoka had never met Kasugano Sora in Sobu High School.

This beautiful girl who suddenly appeared and seemed to have a very close relationship with Xuanyuan Ning made Kasumigaoka Utaha curious about Kasugano Sora's identity.

The printed manuscript was intercepted by Kasugano Sora midway, and Kasugano Sora directly prevented Kasumigaoka Utaha and Xuanyuan Ning from having any direct or indirect contact.

"Thank you, senior." Xuanyuan Ning smiled and nodded to Kasumigaoka Shiyu. He touched Kasugano Sora's head, who was once again close to him, and introduced her to Kasumigaoka Shiyu: "Sora, Kasugano Sora, my sister."

"Ning, can you come over here for a moment?" Shiina Mahiru's words interrupted Kasumigaoka Utaha's idea of ​​continuing to talk with Xuanyuan Ning.

Kasugano Sora no longer stuck to Xuanyuan Ning, but sat obediently on the sofa and read the light novel written by her "future sister-in-law".

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy can help you win a hundred battles.

In order to get to the top and surpass all the other girls, Kasugano Yui begins to actively get to know Shiina Mahiru.

"Hello, I am the young master's personal maid, Robert."

Seeing that Kasumigaoka Utaha turned her eyes to him, Robert, who had been standing by the sofa and waiting next to Xuanyuan Ning, took the initiative to introduce himself with a polite smile on his face.

"Hello, my name is Kasumigaoka Utaha, and I'm your senior." Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled back, thinking secretly in her heart.

Is this your junior's exclusive maid?

That’s right, considering your status as a junior, it’s normal for you to have a maid.

But is my junior's exclusive maid... a little too tall?

Utaha Kasumigaoka is 168cm tall, which is considered quite tall among her peers. This is also a very obvious advantage of Utaha Kasumigaoka over the other women around Xuanyuan Ning.

Robert is taller than Kasumigaoka Utaha, which makes Kasumigaoka Utaha's original height advantage disappear completely.

Kasugano Sora, Xuanyuan Ning's sister...
