Second marriage [Zerg]

After Ning Bai's efforts, the renovation project of the commercial street's drainage pipeline was finally approved by the superior department. After a series of tedious approval procedures, it finally entered the stage of on-site construction.

Qu Ming carefully selected a high-level professional construction team. After the approval was issued, he immediately entered the commercial street. It is estimated that all the construction links will be completed within half a month, so that the merchants and residents here will no longer have to worry about going out on rainy days. .

Chu An was very happy for Ning Bai, and at the same time, he also got good news.

A powerful holographic game operating company took a fancy to his Star Wars-themed fantasy novel that he was serializing, and planned to purchase the copyright to develop an air combat simulation game.

The game company contacted the Chongxing Literature Network, and the Literature Network came to contact Chu An immediately.Chu An was worrying about having no money to buy a house, so he readily agreed.The two parties hit it off immediately, and within a few days, the first copyright payment was transferred to Chu An's star coin account.

The female editor beat gongs and drums and sent a congratulatory message to Chu An: "Congratulations to my great godworm! The great godworm has a prosperous literary fortune and is unparalleled in the world! Congratulations to the editor of the great godworm~ woo woo woo I received the highest performance bonus since I joined the job." , woo woo woo clerk, you are my lucky star! I love you to death!"

The editor also said that the situation has been unstable recently, and there may be another war on the front line. The website's various copyright transactions have fallen into a trough, and many projects that were about the same have been discussed.Only the "Second Level Staff" book was finalized by the game company no matter what, even if it took risks, because they were worried that if they didn't buy it now, they would be snatched away by competitors in the future, and they would not be able to buy it.

The more the editor talked, the more excited he was, he directly praised Chu An as the generation of Tolstoy of the Worm Star, and said that he couldn't contain his joy, and wanted to send another gift to the "second-level staff" as a congratulation.

Chu An remembered the "bridal gift" from last time, and quickly declined it, thanking you for not being sensitive.He persuaded the editor to use the bonus to buy something he likes, and there is no need to waste it on himself.

"Uh..." The editor sensed Chu An's attitude, and cautiously probed, "Does the clerk don't want to get too close to me... You will continue to write, right?"

Chu An couldn't help laughing: "Why are you suddenly worried that I won't write? The money I earned from buying the copyright this time is not enough for my retirement."

The editor said: "Because the female worm has to take care of the male lord and give birth to worm cubs after marriage, she is very busy. Many of my previous authors closed their pens and disappeared shortly after they got married. You are now at the peak of your pen power. If you stop writing, it will be really difficult What a pity. Every morning when I open my eyes, I look forward to reading your work!"

"...There's no need to miss me so much."

Chu An stretched out a small tentacle and tapped the keyboard to reply to the editor's message. He couldn't help but open the star currency account again, check the balance, and calculate the price of the garden villa on the real estate catalog.

"Actually..." Chu An made up his mind and said, "Actually, I have been full of energy recently. Although I haven't finished writing this book, I want to start another one. What do you think?"

"!!! Great!" The editor was overjoyed, "Great, my bonus for the second half of the year has also been paid! What subject do you want to write about? Is it war history?"

Chu An asked back: "Which theme sells better recently?"

"If you want to talk about sales..." The editor thought for a while, "It's about marriage and love sweet pets. The content is relatively light, the audience is wide, and females also like to read it, because they can escape reality and get spiritual satisfaction in novels. It's just that Most of the first-class novels have no depth of thought, and if you write them, you are a bit overqualified."

Chu An said: "There are good and bad works, and there is no superior subject matter. I have heard a saying that the power of Romance novels lies in giving people the space, hope and comfort to escape from reality. Especially in difficult times, this type of novel It will be a must-have item in the lives of many readers. Let me think about it, and if there are no accidents, I will write a book about the sweet love of marriage and love you mentioned."

The editor was stunned: "Sure enough, you are a great worm, and your words are profound. I believe in you, no matter how vulgar themes are written from your pen, it will not be a kitsch work for everyone. I look forward to your sweet pet works. That... ask quietly For a moment, although what you said was serious, you should have thought about writing about your sweet life after marriage, right?"

Chu An was stunned for a moment, and said seriously, "No."

The editor snickered: "I understand, I understand. Looking forward to your new article~"

After finishing the chat with the editor, Chu An seriously thought about the other party's words.

The editor said that he wanted to include his married life in the work. Of course, this is because the unmarried female who is full of love is thinking too much.

But then again, artistic creation must be based on reality. If there are any sweet silhouettes or sparks in his married life, it is not impossible to write them into his novels.

but……

There seemed to be no sparks between him and Ning Bai—except for the terrifying sparks emitted by Ning Bai's bracelet.

Ning Bai obeyed him completely, and he was polite to Ning Bai. Although this kind of life was also very peaceful and serene, he always felt that something was missing.

What's missing?

The "second-level staff member" who boasted that he wanted to write a love and marriage novel in Haikou without ever being in a relationship was completely puzzled.

But the more difficult the problem is, the more you need to use your subjective initiative to find the answer. The "second-level clerk" had an idea and thought of a problem-solving idea——

It is said that the last time the two of them went shopping together, they were unlucky and went straight to the hospital.

Do you want to find another chance to go out together...

So, near the weekend, Chu An proposed to Ning Bai at dinner: "You have been busy with the progress of the project in the commercial street recently. Do you want to relax on the weekend, put aside work, and let's go out together."

"Yes, Xiongzhu, I will obey your arrangement." Ning Bai immediately agreed, he paused, and asked uncertainly, "Did I...be distracted before? Xiongzhu, I was wrong, please punish me."

"No, no, no, it's not a bad question." Chu An sandwiched a piece of braised egg white with honey sauce for Ning Bai, "I understand, you love your job and work hard, your mind is full of work, and you can't let it go when you get home. So I I just want to take you out to relax, how about we go out to eat something delicious, buy something casually, and then play holographic games?"

"it is good."

Ning Bai lowered his eyes, and Chu An immediately saw what was going on in his mind: "Don't worry about your little treasury, I'll treat you this time, and I'll pay for it."

The weekend is coming soon.

Ning Bai wore the casual suit that Chu An bought online for him a while ago, and went straight to Central Street with Chu An.

The bustling Zhongyang Avenue is really not the same as the dilapidated Xiacheng Commercial Street. There are many well-known brand stores and various billboards soaring into the sky.

They go shopping first.

Chu An said that Ning Bai was still short of a few sets of clothes, so he took Ning Bai to the major brand stores to pick and choose.

Because Ning Bai has a perfect figure and looks good in everything he wears, Chu An paid the bills many times, and later he felt that carrying so many shopping bags was in the way, so he went directly to the shop and sent the purchased clothes home.

Then they went to eat again.

In front of Alice's dessert shop, there was a sea of ​​insects, Chu An didn't take it seriously, and directly led Ning Bai in.

He found scalpers on the dark web yesterday and booked today's VIP viewing box at a high price, so he could sit comfortably in the box with Ning Bai and drink a daily limited supply of high-end syrup drinks, watching the graceful sea of ​​clouds surging outside the window.

It was very quiet in the box.

Chu An looked at the clouds outside the window, and then at the female worm with lowered brows on the opposite side.

And Ning Bai kept looking down at the delicate cup in his hand.

"Are you happy?" Chu An said suddenly.

"Happy, thank you, Lord."

"But I always feel that you have something on your mind..." A thread of spiritual power gently helped Ning Bai smooth the messy hair behind his ear, "Do you usually have any hobbies?"

"I..." Ning Bai was a little surprised that Chu An would suddenly ask this question. He thought about it blankly, then shook his head, "What about you?"

"I like reading, writing, listening to music, and studying cooking."

Ning Bai asked: "Then shall we go to the bookstore later?"

Chu An smiled, didn't say anything, and asked instead: "What did you like to play when you were young?"

"I..." Ning Bai became more and more at a loss, "When I was young... I didn't play much."

"Are you the kind of good student who studies hard every day?" Chu An joked kindly, "That's similar to me. I was very obedient when I was a child. My classmates asked me to go to the game hall, but I didn't go. I went home every day to finish my homework. I started reading extra-curricular books and rarely even watched TV."

"No..." Ning Bai still shook his head, his voice getting lower and lower, "I want to help the family with work. If you have time, go out and make some money."

Chu An was silent for a moment: "Sorry."

Ning Bai shook his head: "I didn't make it clear to the hero."

Chu An thought for a while: "I talked about your male father last time. Is he sick? Shall we go and see him today. Do your parents live far away?"

"They..." Ning Bai's voice paused for a long time, "They are all dead."

Flowing clouds brushed past the window, and several military planes flew by from a distance, and the wings reflected a pale golden glow, just like the color of Ning Bai's hair.

Chu An's eyes were dazzled by the golden light, and for a long time, he didn't know what to say.

"My parents have also passed away." He held Ning Bai's hand, "I miss them too. In the future, we can talk about our parents together."

"Xiong Lord, I'm sorry to disappoint you." Ning Bai stood up with his head down.

"No," Chu An shook his head gently, "Although we have lost our parents, it is another kind of happiness that we can sit together like this and talk about the deceased relatives calmly. Parents must be in another world. May we always be as safe and successful as we are now.”

He turned his head to look at the military plane in the distance.

"They all said that there will be another war." Chu An smiled comfortingly, "Suddenly I think it's good for you to come out of the army. If you go to the front line, I will be worried."

The author has something to say:

"The power of a romance novel lies in giving people space, hope, and comfort to escape reality."

Quoted from American romance novelist Lisa Clapas, author of the "Wallflowers" series.

The author also said one thing that left a deep impression on me.

She said, "After a flood, she and her mother went to the supermarket to buy daily necessities. When she checked out, she found that both of them had a romance novel in their shopping baskets. It was also a necessity for her and her mother."

So the staff member is right: there are good and bad works, but there is no superior subject matter.
