Lu Yang's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of several books and a pink tea cup on the computer desk.

At the bottom of those books are his own two sample books, and above the two sample books, Cao Xue's, and so is the pink tea cup.

They were all brought back by Lu Yang last night.

Seeing these things, Lu Yang suddenly felt aroused his heart, and he reached out to take out his cell phone from his pocket to check if there were any text messages or phone calls sent by Cao Xue.

He brought her book and teacup back, and she should have asked him for what he wanted.

...

As soon as the screen of the mobile phone lit up, Lu Yang saw that there was indeed a new message. When Lu Yang opened the inbox, he saw that the new message was indeed sent by Cao Xue.

Click on the new message, and the content of the new message will be displayed:

"Lu Yang! When I went to study tonight, remember to bring my things over and return them to me."

As Lu Yang expected just now, this news was indeed Cao Xue asked him to return the book and teacup to her.

Lu Yang smiled slightly and put his cell phone back into his pocket.

When Lu Yang thought of Cao Xue, he couldn't help but remember the fact that when he parted last night, he lied to her to look in another direction, and then suddenly secretly kissed her.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang's mouth curled up slightly.

The sweetness of love is probably in the process. While Lu Yang was still savoring it, Didi QQ message prompt sounds came from the laptop speaker.

Lu Yang's QQ settings have been automatically logged in, and it will be automatically logged in every time the computer is turned on.

"Who sent me a message at this time?"

Lu Yang was confused and controlled his mouse to click on new news.

As a result, Lu Yang found out that the new news was sent by his editor-in-chief, Brother Tian.

The content of the message made the smile on Lu Yang's face disappear.

"Hello Wen Chou! I have read the manuscript you sent yesterday after get off work last night. I personally think the quality is good. However, unfortunately, after I mentioned your early signing request to the editor, the editor's opinion is: My personal appreciation cannot be the basis for signing a contract. Whether a work can be signed needs to be decided by readers. Therefore, I can only tell you with regret that you can only continue to update on the website for the time being, and only after the popularity increases can you sign the contract. I hope this news has not hit you, and continue to work hard! Looking forward to signing with you for a day."

He actually refused...

Lu Yang was silent.

The editor said that he personally thinks the book is of good quality and I don’t know if it is a polite comfort, but Lu Yang still has confidence in this book "Doom Wasteland".

However, if you want to sign a contract with the website in advance, it is not enough for him to have confidence.

If the editor disagrees, he will not be able to sign the contract in advance.

It seems that in 2003, Qidian Editor signed a new book and was really cautious. It seems that he can only run naked for the time being and cannot get recommendations from the website.

Lu Yang's good mood just now inevitably became a little depressed.

It won’t work through the back door, so next, I can only update it every day honestly, waiting to accumulate popularity bit by bit.

Although Lu Yang felt a little depressed, he did not lose confidence because of this.

How is the quality of this book "Doom Wasteland"? He has been writing novels for so many years and is very clear in his heart.

Lu Yang absolutely does not believe that this book cannot even meet the standards for signing the contract.

That afternoon, Lu Yang didn't go anywhere. He sat quietly in the study room all afternoon, holding a cigarette in his mouth and typing on the keyboard with both hands, and lines of text jumped into the blank document.

In the evening, three chapters were written in the afternoon, totaling more than 9,000 words.

Exceeded today's mission.

But when I went to school tonight to study with Cao Xue, Lu Yang planned to write a manuscript.

Lu Yang is a braver person who becomes more and more frustrated.

Qidian refused to sign his work in advance this time. Although it did not hurt his confidence, it aroused his fighting spirit.

The more others don’t believe in the quality of his works, the more he has to prove his book to others through his own efforts.

After dinner in the evening, Lu Yang brought manuscript paper and pencils, and Cao Xue’s things to classroom 103, teaching building No. 3.

As usual, Cao Xue was already reading books quietly here.

Lu Yang let out light steps and came to Cao Xue. When he sat down, he put Cao Xue's book and teacup next to her arm.

Cao Xue felt his arrival and turned her head to look at him. Perhaps she remembered that Lu Yang secretly kissed her last night. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and the look at Lu Yang was a little different from before.

Lu Yang smiled at her faintly, and his mood was not very good because of Qidian Editor's rejection.

Such a faint smile is different from the impression he left on Cao Xue before.

It made Cao Xue feel a little strange.

"What's wrong with you? You don't seem to be in a good mood?" Cao Xue asked in confusion.

Lu Yang shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing, you can read a book! I'll go out to smoke a cigarette and come back to write the article later."

After saying that, Lu Yang and Cao Xue nodded, put down the manuscript paper and pencil and went out. Seeing Cao Xue was stunned. With Lu Yang's abnormal behavior, Cao Xue felt even more sure that Lu Yang was in a bad mood today.

However, she didn't know Lu Yang very well, and she was not Lu Yang's girlfriend yet, so after being stunned for a moment, she withdrew her gaze and continued to read her book.

However, Lu Yang's abnormal expression and behavior today aroused her curiosity. When she was reading the book, she could no longer be involved.

Lu Yang went out to light a cigarette, put his hands in his pockets, half-squinted his eyes at the dark night outside the corridor, and today's rejection flashed through his mind. Then Lu Yang forcibly threw this idea behind his mind, smoked a cigarette quietly, and began to conceive the content of the two chapters to write tonight in his mind.

When the two cigarettes were almost finished, I had detailed content in my mind.

After throwing the cigarette butt at his feet and rubbing it with his toes, Lu Yang went back to the classroom and returned to Cao Xue's side. Cao Xue felt it, but did not turn his face to look at him immediately, but instead focused on Lu Yang from the corner of his eyes.

When Cao Xue saw Lu Yang coming back this time, he picked up the pencil on the table, pondered slightly, and began to write on the snow-white manuscript paper.

It was the last time that the words were like ghostly drawing talismans. The tip of the pen fell on the manuscript paper. After writing a paragraph in one breath, the tip of the pen did not leave the manuscript paper at all.

Those words are still so simplified that they are difficult to recognize.

But this time Cao Xue no longer dared to suspect that Lu Yang was doing it casually like last time.

The two sample books that Lu Yang brought yesterday have proved to her that the manuscripts he wrote are of high quality. Otherwise, how could a Taiwanese publishing house be willing to pay for his work?

This night, Lu Yang almost kept writing.

When I was writing about my devotion, I forgot that Cao Xue was next to him, and that this place was still the school’s self-study classroom. I habitually took out a cigarette and put it in my mouth and lit it.

One cigarette was lit every ten minutes, and Cao Xue looked at him from the corner of her eyes. Seeing that he was completely selfless, she couldn't bear to wake him up. However, when the smoke of the cigarette drifted to the end of her nose and was smelled by her, her brows subconsciously frowned because of the discomfort. However, although she didn't like the smell of smoke, she saw that Lu Yang was so devoted, but she still held back and didn't bother Lu Yang.

In this way, Lu Yang kept writing until late at 11:30 in the evening, when he was awakened by Cao Xue's mobile phone alarm, he finally quit that state of concentration.

It was not until this time that Lu Yang noticed that half of the cigarette was still in his mouth, and the smoke was floating.

In one night, Lu Yang wrote two more chapters and half of the manuscript.

Seeing that Cao Xue was already packing her own things, Lu Yang was slightly stunned and realized that it was not good to ignore her tonight. At that moment, Lu Yang smiled and said to Cao Xue: "I'm hungry again, should I accompany me to eat rice noodles again?"

While speaking, Lu Yang had already snatched the book and tea cup from Cao Xue.

This made Cao Xue feel the urge to roll her eyes, thinking that why this person is like this? He forced me every time.

However, thinking that Lu Yang was concentrating on writing the article all night this evening, his devotion seemed to be still in front of her. Such Lu Yang made Cao Xue feel unbearable to refuse.

At that moment, after hesitating for a moment, Cao Xue nodded and agreed.
Chapter completed!
