Zongman: The glory of the foundation lasts forever

No, it should be said that he unilaterally reduced contact with the other party.

Because he received a message that Setsu wants to cooperate with a well-known producer.

And his jealousy and unwillingness made him start to stay away from the girl.

Until a few days ago, he had received a text message from the other party.

But since then, there has been no information.

He thought that the other party had given up contact with him, and he felt a little disappointed.

However, the remaining jealousy and unwillingness in his heart still made him unable to take the initiative to contact the girl.

Until today we meet again here.

"Hey, Shimazaki, you know..."

The boy's expression was a little excited, with a trace of pride and excitement in his eyes.

"Satai... ah, Mr. Shui Xiao [xiaoo]."

Shimazaki Yuna hesitated and whispered.

"Mizushino?"

Mizushino Souta's expression froze.

His name is Mizushino Souta, although only close people call him by that name.

However, girls always called him Souta from the beginning.

Because that's his pseudonym. .Chapter 183

"Shimazaki..."

Mizuxiao Souta's expression froze slightly, and he lowered his head a little stiffly, "Hug, I'm sorry."

"what?"

Shimazaki Yuna tilted her head.

Some don't understand why the other party suddenly apologized.

"Holah!"

Mizuxiao Sata blushed a little, "When you asked me for help before, I, I really didn't have that experience, so, so..."

"It's okay."

Shimazaki said with a gentle smile on his cheek, "I don't care."

Yes, she doesn't care anymore.

Because, she has already died once.

Everything before had nothing to do with her.

Regardless of whether Mizushino Souta's previous evasion was out of jealousy, or because of the fear of getting burned, he dared not speak up.

are no longer important.

"Is it okay?"

Seeing the girl's gentle appearance, Mizushino Sota couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, thinking that she really didn't care, "That's right, how can such a kind person like Shimazaki care about such a trivial matter?"

Mizushino Sata made a reasonable explanation for the scene in front of him in his heart.

Thinking of the innocence and gentleness of the girl when they met before, he couldn't help showing a knowing smile.

"Why is Mizushino-kun here?"

Shimazaki asked softly with a slight blush on her pretty face.

It's just that from the corner of her eye, she quietly looked at Yoshikage Kira from time to time, and she didn't know whether she was worried or looking forward to it.

Worry about him showing dissatisfaction, or expect him to show such an expression.

"Hey, Shimazaki."

Shui Xiao Satai immediately became excited when she heard the words, and said excitedly, "I have been spotted by the Immortal Chuan Library!"

"Eh?"

Shimazaki Yuna was a little surprised.

"The Immortal River Bunko asked me to be their illustrator."

Mizushino Sota pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, and said proudly, "Now I am the illustrator for Undead River Bunko, and I create illustrations for their light novels¨々."

"It's very lucky, Mizushino-kun."

Shimazaki Yuna's expression became a little complicated.

She was the first to inform Mizushino Souta about her previous cooperation with a well-known producer.

Trying to convey the good news to his few friends.

It's a pity that Mizuxiao Sata doesn't seem to think this is a good thing.

So he started reducing his contact with her.

Even at the end, when she was hesitating whether to actually commit suicide.

It was Sata Mizushino's answer that gave her a backstab.

Only then did she realize that the other party was probably jealous of herself, right?

"Lucky?"

Mizushino Sota changed color slightly, and clenched his fists tightly, "Hey, in Shimazaki's eyes, is it just luck that I can do this?"

"Eh? I, I didn't mean that."

Shimazaki Yuna hurriedly waved her hand, she just sighed normally, why was she misunderstood like this?

It's just that she doesn't know it.

In the eyes of Mizushino Souta who once abandoned her because of jealousy, she is already a very sensitive person.

On the one hand, Mizushino Sata felt guilty towards her.

But on the other hand, it made Mizushino Souta's heart extremely sensitive.

Any unintentional speech of the girl may be over-interpreted by Mizushino Sota and automatically made into something bad.

"I got to where I am today by relying on my own strength!"

Shui Xiao Satai slowly loosened her clenched fist, gritted her teeth and said, "It's definitely not because of luck, it's different from you!"

"Shui Xiao-kun..."

Shimazaki parted his vermilion lips slightly, but he still didn't say anything after all, but his expression became a little gloomy.

Although Mizushino Sota chose to escape when she needed help the most, abandoning her who had nothing.

But in her heart, Mizushino Souta is still one of her few friends.

Even if the relationship is not as good as before, they can still afford the word "friends".

But why did it become like this?

Mizushino Souta's drawing skills are indeed excellent, and Shimazaki Yuna, who has communicated with him, knows this very well.

So it is not impossible to be selected as the illustrator of the light novel.

In fact, the gap between painters of the same level is actually not as big as imagined.

Shimazaki Yuna didn't think she was much better than Mizushino Sota.

She is indeed very lucky, because her works are liked by more people.

This gave me the opportunity to work with well-known producers.

But even she wouldn't want to be told that everything she got was just luck.

"enough."

Yoshikage Kira gently pressed the girl's shoulder.

"Kirana-kun."

Shimazaki Yuna pursed her lips, with a trace of grievance on her small face.

"Remember what I said? Don't care what other people think."

Yoshikage Kira patted her on the head, his expression was still calm, but he was indeed comforting, "'々The groundless accusations from strangers don't affect you much, do they? So don't worry about it, just ignore it."

"Well, I see."

Shimazaki Yuna raised her small face, bit her teeth lightly, and there was a trace of determination in her eyes.

"who are you?"

Mizushino Souta had a distorted mentality, and said angrily, "It's none of your business if I talk to Shimazaki, let me go!"

While speaking, Mizushino Souta cast his expectant eyes on the girl.

He was also counting on their previous relationship, counting on what the girl said that he was her only friend.

As long as the opponent can make any struggle and resistance, he can stand on the moral high ground.

However, no.

Shimazaki Yuna only had a slightly rosy face, letting Kira Yoshikage play with her long purple-black hair.

Not only did he not resist, on the contrary he enjoyed it a bit.

"You just said that you were selected as an illustrator by Undead Chuan Library, right?"

Yoshikage Kira looked calmly at the young man who was ashamed and angry like a defeated (Wang Li's) dog.

"Do you want to say lucky again? I won this by relying on my strength!"

Mizushino Sota glared at Yoshikage Kira, he hated people saying that he only relied on luck.

Just like before, he and Shimazaki Yuna's painting skills are almost the same.

But why was Shimazaki chosen instead of him?

Just because of luck!

He hates when people say that about himself, because that's how he thinks about others.

So he was angry, and also, jealous.

Jealous of Yoshikage Kira standing next to that girl.

He completely forgot that it was he who abandoned her with his own hands before.

"As far as I know, there is no such thing as an imperial illustrator in the Undead River Library."

Yoshikage Kira met the boy's angry gaze calmly, and said calmly, "Under normal circumstances, the illustrator can be arranged by the library or selected by the writer himself. And you obviously belong to the latter." Chapter 184

Undead River Bunko, of course, has excellent artists who cooperate with them.

For example, Teacher Eromanga.

However, Eromanga-sensei is not only cooperating with Undead River Bunko, but also with Dengeki Bunko.

The scope of business is quite broad.

In addition, there are many second-level painters.

And these painters, like Mr. Eromanga, most of the time painted for the works of those veteran writers.

Of course, creating illustrations for newcomers is not a big deal.

If a newcomer's work is successful, their illustrations are the icing on the cake.

And if it fails, it is to buy illustrations and give toilet paper.

As long as the painting doesn't collapse, it won't have any impact on their reputation.

But even so, not every light novelist can afford these painters.

After all, the top practitioners in the industry are a minority.

Neon contributes thousands of light novels every month.
