Chapter 61: Chapter 61: The Summit of the Forbidden City
Lin Chuan turned his head and saw in the couple’s area in front of him, two people were sitting.
The guy had slick, shiny hair, a handsome face, sunny and quite good-looking, with a light smile on his mouth that exuded an enchanting self-confidence.
The girl had long, slightly curly hair that fell over her shoulders, wearing over-the-ear gaming headphones, looking radiant with energy.
They were dressed in matching printed shirts.
In the middle was a cup of bubble tea, with two straws, having just finished a game.
“Old Wang?”
Lin Chuan looked at Wang Zikai and Xue Qiqi, furrowing his brows.
Showoffs, huh!
When Wang Zikai heard Lin Chuan’s voice, his eyes lit up: “Old Lin, what brings you here?”
Lin Chuan showed a smile, walked over to Wang Zikai, and said with a laugh, “I’ve been working on a side job recently, came here to discuss some business.”
“A side job? You’re hardcore, Old Lin!”
Wang Zikai took off his gaming headphones, chuckled, and patted Lin Chuan on the shoulder.
“This is a legitimate side job!” Lin Chuan replied earnestly.
Smiling radiantly, Xue Qiqi said from the side, “Old Lin, do you know what Qianqian is worried about?”
Qianqian?
Officer Shen?
Lin Chuan’s mind conjured up the image of Shen Qianqian, and he asked in confusion, “Did Officer Shen give any orders?”
Xue Qiqi smiled and said, “Qianqian is worried that you might stray off the right path.”
“Right, Officer Shen said she is concerned about your ability to scout and fabricate crime scenes—it’s too worrisome. She hopes you won’t go astray.”
Wang Zikai immediately echoed this concern.
Uh.
The lovey-dovey couple provided their input in tandem.
Two black lines immediately appeared on Lin Chuan’s face: “Cut it out, what ‘straying off the right path’? I’ve always abided by the laws, and my side job is properly registered with the commercial bureau.”
“That’s good to hear.”
Wang Zikai nodded, showing a relieved expression.
Xue Qiqi sipped her bubble tea, curious about Lin Chuan’s side job: “Old Lin, what kind of side job do you have that brings you to discuss business at an internet cafe?”
Lin Chuan smiled and didn’t intend to keep it a secret: “I provide technical expertise in network security.”
Upon hearing this.
Wang Zikai looked Lin Chuan over carefully: “Old Lin, you never mentioned you had these skills; don’t tell me you’re into fraud!”
“Get out of here!”
Lin Chuan waved his hands dismissively, “Don’t talk nonsense, Old Wang. I’ve got plenty of skills; relying solely on writing, I’d end up eating dirt sooner or later.”
According to incomplete statistics.
Writers who earn over ten thousand a month across the net don’t exceed ten thousand people.
However, the Writers’ Association revealed that there are over ten million registered online literature authors, with nearly a million becoming contracted authors.
Some writers just end up working in factories as they write.
“No worries, with brothers like us, we definitely won’t let you eat dirt,” Wang Zikai said with a chuckle.
Lin Chuan looked back at Wang Zikai and frowned, “Old Wang, what are you doing at the internet cafe?”
“Playing team games.”
“You can play team games at home too, can’t you?”
“That just goes to show, you bachelor don’t appreciate the ambiance; it feels different playing at the internet cafe,” Wang Zikai replied, raising his eyebrows smugly.
Looking at Wang Zikai and then at Xue Qiqi, Lin Chuan was puzzled: “You two always play games and romance like this, aren’t you writing anymore?”
Xue Qiqi’s smile was brilliant: “I have a book that’s being adapted into a short series, with royalties coming in.”
Uh.
I’ll leave you be then.
