Chapter 428 - Chapter 428: Chapter 271: Really an Agent? (Subscribe Please)_2 (2/2)
So, there’s much more to consider when interacting with them.
This thing, it’s hard to explain.
Lin Chuan shook his head, casting out these jumbled thoughts, believing that everything would straighten itself out when they got to that point.
Lin Chuan then straightforwardly replied, “She’s a little rich girl, and she’s also my landlady.”
“The one closest to the water gets the reflection of the moon first.”
Youyou pursed her lips and then gently shook her head, a hint of melancholy flashing in her eyes.
The ‘moon’ she referred to was clearly not Xinxin, the little rich girl, but Lin Chuan himself.
She let out a silent sigh.
Lin Chuan had written under her supervision for a long time. Every time, she carefully reviewed Lin Chuan’s novels, and it can be said that she and Lin Chuan fought side by side on the battlefield of the website.
“Weren’t we just talking about books? How did you start gossiping?” Lin Chuan couldn’t quite guess what Youyou was thinking at the moment, but he was also not keen to continue the conversation on this topic.
Talking about matters of the heart with a woman was strictly taboo!
“Let’s talk about books, talk about books!”
Youyou forced a reconciliatory smile.
Then, the two discussed the publication-related matters concerning “Ace Agent.”
“Ace Agent” was still being released simultaneously at home and abroad.
Youyou had arranged all the promotion activities after its release, so Lin Chuan didn’t need to worry about not getting recommended.
Lin Chuan genuinely praised the arrangements.
It was like that news story about a college student who started dating a cafeteria lady—yes, they became boyfriend and girlfriend. Every time the student went to the cafeteria, he would get his plate piled high without any hesitation.
It’s a niche track.
Lin Chuan and Youyou weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend, but when it came to recommendations, Youyou was always very generous in her efforts for Lin Chuan.
At that time,
even with “Hacker Kingdom” barely reaching over three hundred subscriptions, she dared to bet with the editor-in-chief to have Lin Chuan’s book published overseas.
If it hadn’t been for her bold bet, Lin Chuan’s system board in his mind might still be stuck at the “Hacker Kingdom” stage.
At least, the release process of his subsequent new books would not have been so swift.
Three days later,
Lin Chuan’s new book was launched on schedule.
It was released simultaneously both domestically and internationally.
The overseas part would release the first half first, while the second half would have to wait to be translated before being updated.
Youyou had set up the events for Lin Chuan’s new book very ingeniously.
On this day,
another major event exploded in the domestic and international public opinion hotspot.
——The National Weapons Research Institute filed a lawsuit against Sania for 30 billion US dollars in compensation.
This sensational news instantly swept across the globe.
Originally, the fact that Steve, the representative of Sania, had been taken away for investigation had already stirred much speculation from the outside world. Now, with the formal announcement and court acceptance, how could it not astonish people?
Its trending spot on various major platforms stayed hot and unyielding.
[Damn! It’s really happening!]
[So it turns out Sania was playing the blame game before!]
[I’m more and more skeptical now, that web novel writer must be from the National Weapons Research Institute!]
[Hisss! Is it appropriate for a web novel writer to be so involved?]
[Don’t interpret it like that! Would such a significant influent author deign to step down to earn his living from web novels?]
[It’s so tough, what kind of influent authors are writing web novels these days?]
[…]
The paid commentators who used to target Lin Chuan had now dissipated due to Morgan Group being preoccupied with their own troubles. Only a few stubborn little cuties were left, making snide comments while waiting for the final court judgment, warning others not to get slapped in the face later.
At the same time,
Lin Chuan’s new book was getting ample traffic.
“Ace Agent’s” trending topic closely followed the ‘National Weapons Research Institute sues Sania.’
For a while,
“Ace Agent” reached the peak of popularity!

Night, like a gentle painter, softly cast deep shades of blue and purple, gradually painting the sky into a distant tranquility. Amidst the utter silence, stars quietly adorned the boundless canvas above, bright and dim, as if they were dreams left behind from an ancient era, silently telling stories unknown to man.
