Chapter 19 Chapter 19: Knowing You Want Money

That day I was researching new advertising ideas in my room. My mother called and asked about my health.So I felt a little better about myself, and I said it to a higher level while talking, and I said without thinking, Mom, you miss me a lot, or I will move back.My mother must have been frightened by Lu Xu's phone call, she dropped the phone to the ground as soon as she heard this, and my heart broke when I heard the bang.What kind of old lady, didn't I just casually say that I want to move back to live? Didn't I say that I killed three or four people and would stay with my family for a few months? As for that?I was very unhappy and hung up the phone.I guess my mother thought it was overdone, and even made two phone calls to explain that she didn't mean that, and of course she welcomes me if I want to come back.I shouted in my heart that it is hypocritical to be a human being these days, and I almost wanted to say "well, I'll come back".

The phone rang for the third time, and I thought to myself that the old lady was really endless, so I picked it up and said, Mom, I see, you really didn't mean that. Then I heard Editor Liu's voice on the phone. He smiled and said, Lin Lan, why don't you call everyone Mom when you haven't seen him for a few months? I said, oh, editor Liu, hello, hello, I just had a conflict with my mother, what do you want from me? It's nothing, just telling you that we probably have some problems with that book. What's the problem?You can really help me, that's my own sister.

Lin Lan, have you read her novels?Junior high school students can write this kind of thing better than her. I know you want to help her, but you can't lie to me that I'm your own sister. Your surname is Lin and her surname is Yao. These sisters are really close.If you really want to publish it, then I can give it to you completely out of personal favors, but I can give you 5% and 5,000 copies at most for the royalties and prints. After hearing this, I was thinking how to explain to Gu Xiaobei. After hanging up the phone, I sat on the sofa to think about this issue, and finally decided to post some money for Yao Shanshan myself, raising the royalties to 8%, which is only a few thousand yuan, and treat it as my debt to Gu Xiaobei.

So I called Yao Shanshan, and I told her that there might be some problems with publishing the book, but I will try my best to fix it. On the other side of the phone, Yao Shanshan told me calmly, forget it if it doesn't work, and never counted on you.Then she dropped the phone to me. I provoke someone.I also put the phone down hard.I decided not to bother with this matter.My debt to Gu Xiaobei is not to you, Yao Shanshan, and you are not married to him, so why should you enjoy his benefits. Three minutes after I hung up the phone, Gu Xiaobei's call came, and Yao Shanshan filed a complaint really fast.

Gu Xiaobei said on the phone, Lin Lan, I know you want money, you can ask for the amount, as long as it is not too outrageous, I will pay, and you give this book for her. I was completely heartbroken after hearing this, Gu Xiaobei, I have been with you for six years, two thousand one hundred and ninety days, don't you understand what kind of person I am?How much money would I want from you? Even though I told myself that I couldn't cry, why did I cry and I did nothing wrong, my tears still flowed out disappointingly.I don't know what Yao Shanshan said in front of Gu Xiaobei, but I thought very sadly that in the past, when anyone said I was wrong in front of Gu Xiaobei, he would immediately jump up and be anxious.It's just that the Gu Xiaobei in the memory is nowhere to be found, his voice and smile are scattered all over the world.

I listened to Gu Xiaobei finish, and then wiped away my tears, pretending to be very relaxed and calm, but actually I said very sadly in my heart, Gu Xiaobei, so I, Lin Lan, have been such a person in your mind for six years. Then I shouted loudly into the microphone: Gu Xiaobei, you should rush to the coffee shop downstairs of my company within five minutes, and if you are one minute late, I will fucking kill you!
