49 Cover Ar (2/2)
”Hehehe, let me look for it on the website...”
Zhou Lei searched up the title of the novel and one result popped up. It was his work.
”Wait, oh, I forgot about this...” Looking at the page for his novel in disappointment, Zhou Lei realized he overlooked something.
It was the cover.
The cover of his novel was the default used by Webnovel.com, that is to say, it was pure and utter garbage nobody should read.
If a novel had a cover like that, it would scream unprofessionalism to the readers, and make them think that the content is no better than the crappy cover.
Even though there was the rare novel that actually had good content despite having a cover like so, it would likely never manage to take off because of the subconscious prejudice against novels with covers like that.
Although, he has seen already some novels in the most popular page that had a cover like that...
”Hmm, maybe, if my novel thrives despite being in that condition, it would entice other readers to read it. Since it's on the popularity rankings without a cover, it must be a good novel!”
Zhou Lei closed his eyes and a grin formed on his face as he crossed his arms and nodded. This idea of his... was pretty genius.
”Once it reaches the peak... I should add the cover then.”
Feeling satisfied, Zhou Lei turned off the computer and stood up from the chair. However, an unfamiliar feeling invaded the soles of his feet.
”Hmm...?!” Zhou Lei was puzzled at first. He then looked down on the floor, only to see that... the tiles that were previously there were all gone!
All that was left was the cement under the tiles...
Zhou Lei looked around the room. The whole floor was a mess. There were pieces of tiles littered everywhere, and patches of cement were exposed here and there.
He saw a figure working diligently at the corner of the room. It was his little sister, Zhou Zhenya.
Zhou Zhenya's clothes were covered in dust. Her hands were holding a tile piece while she chiseled it to make it look better, all the while having a ferocious glare on her face.
”What... what the heck?!” Zhou Lei was really dazed. Why was his little sister doing something like this?!
Zhou Lei tried to recall any events that happened before she started doing this.
”Hmm... oh!” Zhou Lei suddenly remembered something.
”So it's the books, huh?” Now, Zhou Lei was not looking at his little sister in puzzlement, but with envy plastered all across his face.
He was not over the matter just yet. She stole a bunch of books all worth $500 from him, and what's more, System was asking him for compensation!
He was really mad this time around.
Suddenly, as he was harboring these thoughts, a series of notifications rang out in his mind.
