I just want to study hard

Chapter 209 Stranger

Xiao Yuan is still thinking about when the "Lord of the Rings" series will be published.

Now, Random House intends to take it and give an advance payment of $10 higher than "A Song of Ice and Fire".

Xiao Yuan couldn't find any reason to reject the other party's sincerity.

The reason why the prepaid manuscript fee is higher than the price of Mr. Martin's works is not to say that "The Lord of the Rings" is better than "A Song of Ice and Fire" in terms of story.

It's just that "The Lord of the Rings" has a higher probability of success in comparison.

After the manuscript comes back, even if it is found that its storytelling is not good enough, Langdon has a way to make a lot of money.

As long as the timing is right, the release time will be stuck in Universal's publicity period.

That is, before the film was released.

It's not just the entertainment industry who can do things like gossip. Cultural people think it's a younger brother when they think about it.

"Well, I agree." Xiao Yuan responded.

John on the other side of the phone smiled easily: "Xiao, please send me the manuscript as soon as possible, there is not much time left for Langdon."

After receiving the manuscript, Langdon still needs to proofread it word by word.

Typesetting according to the story and word count of the book, making a cover, and formulating a sales plan.

The final decision is to print the quantity and send it to print!

These all take time, and Random House also needs to inquire about Universal's detailed developments.

If the time is right, or if you recognize the storyline of "The Lord of the Rings", choose to cooperate with Universal to stir up it together.

Xiao Yuan has enough confidence in "Lord of the Rings", even if he modified some elements.

But it does not affect its story and popular elements.

Only by being popular can you make money.

This is a truth that everyone understands, but experts have a more precise and clear understanding of it, which is one of the reasons why Langdon bet on it.

In-depth literary works are destined not to become bestsellers.

Because from the very beginning, it was not written for ordinary people.

I have to say which of the two is better.

Comparing fast-moving consumer goods with customized versions, there is no need...

After closing the line, Xiao Yuan asked Lu Ke to take him home.

His notebook is at home, and the manuscripts are all there.

click~
Xiao Yuan walked towards the bedroom, while Lu Ke looked around in the room: "Aren't they all there?"

"En." Xiao Yuan opened his notebook in front of the desk, and sent the trilogy he had written to John.

Hey~
The file was sent successfully, and Xiao Yuan also received a reply from John: "You have thought of it a long time ago, right?"

Smiling noncommittally, Xiao Yuan replied with a "?" as the end.

"Ah~" A comfortable sigh came from behind, Lu Ke lay on his bed and rolled wantonly.

Holding the pillow and taking a deep breath, the milk is fragrant...

It's his taste.

"Eh?" Xiao Yuan's expression was innocent, what is this for?
What pillow are you smelling? !
That's not why I use baby products...stop sniffing.

Lu Ke took off his coat, opened the quilt and got in and said, "I'm sleepy, don't disturb me!"

Xiao Yuan was completely dumbfounded, isn't it...

Go to the hotel when you are sleepy, the big bed in the business suite is not enough for you to sleep in, why do you stay on my bed.

Also, why stuff my pillow under the comforter.

Hey, what are you doing~
Pulling the quilt funny, "Get up, go back to your hotel room and sleep."

"No." Lu Ke pulled on the quilt tightly, with the pillow between his thighs, he would rather die than do it.

"Get up, get up, get up..." Xiao Yuan was speechless.

Is she really in her thirties, and is she still a gold medal lawyer in a multinational law firm?

It's totally a weirdo!

"Don't bother me, I'm so sleepy." Lu Ke's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell into a deep sleep while whispering.

"Hey, stop playing." Xiao Yuan reached out to pull the quilt.

This time, he pulled off the quilt smoothly, and Lu Ke inside didn't respond at all.

He just put his hands in the hollows of his legs, his body arched and he frowned.

cold~
The straightforward behavior and language made Xiao Yuan, who was holding the quilt, stunned.

Then, gently covered her with the quilt that was just torn off.

The furrowed brows gradually calmed down like ripples on the surface of a lake.

Picking up the notebook, Xiao Yuan walked out quietly.

A few seconds later, he came back again and gently closed the door.

"Well, it's so comfortable~" Stretching wantonly, Lu Ke opened his restless eyes.

This sleep was the best she had slept in the past few months.

Practical and comfortable...

The drowsy consciousness gradually woke up under the sunlight, and after blinking, Lu Ke suddenly sat up.

This is Xiao Yuan's house, so I fell asleep? !

uh~
Looking at the quilt on her body, Lu Ke felt a little sweet and curious at the same time.

Where did he sleep last night?

I touched the side with my hand, it was cold...

Oh, aren't you with me?

A little disappointed, Lu Ke lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Rubbing his hands and feet to open the door, Lu Ke stretched out his hand and looked out, "Pfft~"

On the sofa facing the door, Xiao Yuan shrank himself into a ball like a furry.

Smiling and walking forward, Lu Ke squatted beside him, just looking at his peaceful sleeping face.

So good, so cute!
Can't help leaning forward, at this moment Lu Ke's heart is overflowing with motherhood.

Afterwards, Xiao Yuan, who was lying on his side, turned his head and opened his eyes.

woo~
……

Sitting at the dining table and eating breakfast, Lu Ke pretended to be calm and asked, "How is it? My craftsmanship is not bad, right?"

"Hmm~" Xiao Yuan nodded in response.

Both of them tacitly did not bring up the previous misunderstanding, only a touch of warmth spread from their lips to their hearts.

Sweet, very sweet!

Lu Ke is like a flower bud after the rain, which suddenly blooms under the moisture of the rain and the sunshine.

Presenting the most beautiful side of oneself to him belongs only to him.

Xiao Yuan felt this brilliance.

Lu Ke, who is full of happiness and youth, is graceful and elegant, expressing tenderness and delicacy with every frown and smile.

The strong 'sensuality' that goes directly to the soul can be truly experienced even without the naked eye.

It made him very sad...

Because he can clearly realize that the weight in Lu Ke's heart is increasing day by day.

Mature, gentle, independent, sexy, able to take care of others, cooking skills...

Looking at the sumptuous breakfast prepared in 20 minutes before him, Xiao Yuan couldn't deny his true feelings.

"I see everything in the kitchen is complete. Does anyone usually cook at home?"

"Oh, big...it's all done by Sister He Yu." Xiao Yuan responded.

"Really?" Lu Ke chuckled dumbly, and asked abruptly, "Is that delicious made by her, or by me?"

surprised~
Every pore on his body was exuding a threat of horror, his hairs stood on end, and a chill rushed from his tailbone to the back of his head.

"Ahem~" Xiao Yuan choked.

At this moment, the instinct from a man saved his future life.

"Ah, cough, cough~" Covering his mouth and running to the bathroom, Xiao Yuan closed the door, locked it, and turned on the faucet.

Call ~
Taking a long breath, Xiao Yuan stared at the person in the mirror.

His eyebrows were low and his eyes were soft, his smile was warm, and there was a bit of joy and happiness from the heart in his gentleness.

who is he?Why does it look strange...
