Looking at the birthday gift in front of him, Xu Youyu's whole body was numb.

Ying Chanxi hid behind Li Luo and snickered. Yan Zhusheng's originally expressionless face became a little nervous at this time. When he saw Xu Youyu's expression, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly.

Cui Suling came over curiously and saw the words clearly. She was surprised when she found out that it was "The Age of Literature and Art".

She didn't turn around for a moment, subconsciously thinking that Xu Youyu should have known that Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng knew about her novel writing, so he would prepare such a gift.

Thinking this, Cui Suling curiously picked up the top book and looked at the bottom one.

It turns out that all of them are "Literary Ages", from 1 to 12, covering a full 2.5 million words of content.

At this time, Lin Xiuhong, who was next to her, reacted and looked at Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng in surprise: "When did you two know about it?"

Hearing this, it was Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng's turn to be surprised.

"Aunt Lin, do you also know?" Ying Chanxi didn't know about the death of Xu Youyu's fishing community before, and thought that only Li Luo and the Xu family's parents would know, and was slightly surprised at this time.

Yan Zhusheng responded obediently: "I knew it last year."

These words were like a sharp sword, piercing into Xu Youyu's heart, making her breathe suddenly and look at Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng with a stiff face.

Li Luo, who was on the side, was a little nervous when he saw the two of them suddenly confessing this matter. He suddenly thought of many things and subconsciously asked: "Then before the annual meeting..."

"We already knew that." Ying Chanxi murmured in a low voice, "Isn't it just the senior sister who went there first, and even took a special flight back, and then took another flight with us."

Xu Youyu's breathing stopped again for a moment, and he looked at the two women with a desperate look on his face, and begged in a low voice with trembling lips: "Don't, stop talking..."

It's obvious that the college entrance examination has just ended, and it happens to be her birthday...why...it's obvious that the two things combined should make people feel extremely happy.

But all the happiness he had before was shattered to pieces in front of this gift, making Xu Youyu just want to find a hole in the ground and get in quickly.

I originally thought that by being admitted to college, I could hide my merit and fame, and it would not matter if I were exposed again later.

You can even find an opportunity to expose yourself proactively.

After all, if, as Li Luo said, he could get the master contract of Wenyue Group this year or next year, Xu Youyu would definitely not be able to hide it from Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng.

It would be better to admit it openly and directly.

But at this moment, when she had no mental defense at all, Xu Youyu really couldn't stand it any longer.

"I like senior sister's books very much." Yan Zhusheng walked to Xu Youyu and said seriously, "I read it carefully several times."

Xu Youyu: "..."

It's better not to say anything like this!

Xu Youyu's cheeks suddenly turned red when he thought that Yan Zhusheng had read what he had written several times.

Ying Chanxi on the other side did not continue to stab her heart, but walked up to Xu Youyu and shared with her: "There is no physical version of your book yet."

"So Zhusheng and I specially found a printing shop to make this, and we designed the cover ourselves."

"There are also some elements from the movies mentioned in the book, including some plot content that we both find interesting, which are reflected on these covers."

When Xu Youyu heard this, he was originally a little anxious, but now he calmed down a bit.

Her attention was drawn to the physical book in front of her by Ying Chanxi. After careful observation, she indeed discovered the ingenuity of the cover.

Although she was still a little embarrassed, Xu Youyu was still a little touched when she thought that it was a gift specially designed for her by Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng.

After all, he was someone who had experienced social death many times. Xu Youyu took a deep breath, cleared his mind of the embarrassing emotions just now, thought about it carefully, and found that it seemed to be okay.

Just like Li Luo said, if you experience social death a few times, you will get used to it.

Especially today is her birthday. Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng didn't have any intention of asking anyone to accuse her. They just prepared a birthday gift, a little fun, and talked about it.

It also prevents her from always being secretive.

So Xu Youyu finally calmed down, whispered thank you, picked up the twelve volumes of "The Age of Literature", and temporarily put them on the table.

"By the way, you won't prepare this for me in the future, right?" Li Luo lowered his head and took a second look at the physical book, and couldn't help but muttered.

After hearing this, Ying Chanxi rolled her eyes at him: "You haven't finished writing yet, and you are already running for five million words. If you really want to make it into a physical book, it will have to be twice as thick as the senior sister's.

Woolen cloth!"

"I feel like you've written five million words and you're only halfway through the plot." Yan Zhusheng also added at the side. At the end, he whispered quietly beside Li Luo, "I haven't gone to bed yet, study."

Sister is much faster than you."

Li Luo: "..."

With elders here, Li Luo wouldn't dare to pick on Yan Zhusheng's words.

But what she said is also true.

Because he knew that the review red line in the Internet literature market would tighten in this area in the following years, Li Luo had been avoiding progress in this area in order to avoid the risk of subsequent revisions and at the same time extend the life of the book.

For many readers, once the female protagonist is conquered physically, the character's attractiveness to readers will immediately drop by a notch.

This is no wonder the readers.

It can only be said that this is the case at the threshold of pleasure, and it is inevitable in human nature.

Readers are clamoring why they haven't accepted the heroine yet, saying that they will abandon the book if it continues.

But in fact, if they really want to accept the heroine, it may be the time for them to abandon the book.

Because at that time, the pleasure point has been satisfied, as if entering the time of the sage.

On the contrary, the heroine has never been recommended. Although readers scolded her harshly, they really watched it.

Just like a boy looking for snacks on the Internet, he concentrates on searching and wants to taste everything he is interested in.

Once the release was over, I immediately lost interest.

Although this kind of thing is not absolute for individuals, Internet readers are a very large group.

If the author wants to make money, he must pursue the greatest common denominator as much as possible.

Of course, this also has something to do with Li Luo's lack of literary pursuits.

Like Xu Youyu, when he writes online articles, he still has some literary pursuits, and he also emphasizes some of his own ideas and thoughts in the book.

For example, when "The Age of Literature" was completed, Li Luo specially marked out some words in the final chapter, which were Xu Youyu's personal expressions of the movie or entertainment content.

In comparison, Li Luo is much simpler.

He doesn’t have that big of a literary pursuit and writes online articles for two reasons.

One is to make money, and the other is to have fun.

To put it simply, he is not that young.

Most of the content that readers find enjoyable is also enjoyable for him, so he feels very comfortable when writing it.

Some authors write exciting plots that readers like, but in fact these contents violate their literary expression. Sometimes they subconsciously write some literary and youth content, which makes the readers feel awkward and they themselves are scolded.

This is more of a sin.

"So when do you plan to finish writing this book?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously, "Do you also have to wait until next year before the college entrance examination to finish it?"

"It's early." Li Luo watched Xu Youyu start cutting the cake and smiled at the side, "Anyway, if I can keep writing, I feel there is no need to stop."

He is not stubborn.

Although it really takes a lot of energy and takes some time every day, he can slowly reproduce some Internet articles that have achieved good results in later generations.

But looking at it now, it’s not necessary.

He is very satisfied with his current income and life, and just wants to live his own life in peace and contentment.

Now, relying on the subscription performance of "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" and the copyright performance of "Little Joy", this year's platinum contract is already a certainty.

The error-free version is being read! This is the first novel.

Li Luo plans to see the follow-up situation of "I'm Not a Celebrity" before making any plans. Now that it has less than 5 million words, he is really not in a hurry.

"It's time to eat cake." Xu Youyu cut the cake and interrupted their discussion.

After all eight people had cut the cakes, there was still a little left on the table. Xu Youyu quietly put some on his fingers, brushed it twice, and made a mess on the faces of Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng, vowing to wipe out the previous cakes.

The place is restored.

The four parents were smiling nearby, eating cake and watching them make a fuss.

After they finished eating, they did not intend to disturb the follow-up activities of Xu Youyu and the others, so they filled their stomachs and left.

"Don't go to bed too late." Cui Suling didn't forget to remind her before leaving, "It's just past seven o'clock now. By ten o'clock or eleven o'clock, you will be almost ready to go to bed. Li Luo and the others have to go to school tomorrow.

Are you studying in the evening?"

"I got it~" Xu Youyu pushed his mother's shoulders and sent her out, waving goodbye to Li Guohong and his wife on the other side of the elevator, "Goodbye, uncle and aunt~"

"Bye." Lin Xiuhong waved with a smile, "You guys are having fun, we'll leave first."

After seeing off the four parents, Xu Youyu closed the door and stood in the entrance hall with his back to the living room. Suddenly there was no sound and no one moved.

Ying Chanxi, who was clearing the table, felt a little strange. He stepped forward and patted Xu Youyu on the shoulder, and asked doubtfully: "Senior, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Xu Youyu turned around and looked at Ying Chanxi with a smile on his face. Then he glanced at Yan Zhusheng and clapped his hands with a smile, "Now there are only four of us left, it's time to play a happy birthday game~
