"She won't hit anyone. I'll keep an eye on her, so don't worry. I definitely won't let her affect the book signing." Yun Han sneered, "Giving up a perfectly good top editor-in-chief, she's become a paparazzi instead."

"You'll regret protecting Ning like this." Gao Huiyan bit her lower lip, feeling resentful towards Yun Han for not knowing what was good for her.

Now, Maruko will be angry with her again.

How can she coax him?

Gao Huiyan tidied herself up and left the office.

"Gao Huiyan, it's still working hours, where are you going?"

"Go and urge them to finish the manuscript."

Gao Huiyan left without looking back.

"Pushing for the manuscript? He's probably gone to see that Maruko again."

"Anyway, Maruko has never submitted her manuscript on time."

The other editors shrugged.

"Oh well, she's a top editor-in-chief, what can we do?"

So what if you're a top-notch editor-in-chief?

Yun Han frowned.

What's the point of having a top-notch editor-in-chief whose heart has turned black?

He immediately called Ning Hongze and told him about it.

“Actually, what she said makes some sense. It’s really not appropriate for me to go to the book signing.” Ning Hong looked at Ning Xi, who was rolling on the ground.

Ningxi rolled up her lower body with a bed sheet.

It was flapping its wings on the ground.

Without even thinking, he already knew what she was doing today.

Mermaid, I suppose.

Suddenly, Ningxi straightened up and started singing.

Her voice was clear and pleasant, but she was tone-deaf and terribly off-key.

In short, it has nothing to do with sounding pleasant.

Most importantly, she sang the songs that the square dancing aunties often do.

"Nobody knows what my sister will turn into on the day of the book signing." Maybe she'll become a snake, or maybe a cat?

It might be another ladyboy.

Either way, appearing in public would inevitably attract criticism. He didn't want his sister to experience that.

"I'll keep an eye on it for you."

“I’m not at ease,” Ning Hong said bluntly.

"You're really straightforward."

"That's my greatest strength."

"But I've already spoken to so many fans. Can you bear to see so many of your supporters disappointed?"

"this--"

Ning Hong hesitated.

"But no matter how important fans are, they are not as important as my sister."

"If your fans heard this, they would probably be heartbroken."

“That’s normal. Those fans also have their own families. Compared to their families, I’m definitely ranked lower,” Ning Hong said without hesitation.

Everyone has their own life.

Everyone has their own path to walk.

They can choose to improve alongside their favorite idols, but they also need to live their own lives well. After all, idols can inspire you to improve, but they can't live your life for you.

"Then let Ningxi sit in the front row. I'll keep an eye on her for you. You'll see her right away when you look down from up there, how about that?"

"Well—okay." Ning Hong hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Having gone this far, it would be too much for Ning Hong to refuse any further.

After hanging up the phone, Ning Hong sat on the floor. "Xixi, will you accompany your brother to the book signing next week?"

Are you a prince?

Ning Xi suddenly reached out and hugged Ning Hongze's neck.

Her big, beautiful eyes blinked, making her especially adorable.

"I am a prince, but I am not a human prince, I am a mermaid prince."

Ning Hong then bent down, picked up Ning Xi, and placed her on the sofa.

"Mermaid Prince?" Ning Xi looked at Ning Hongze's legs. "Then why do you have legs?"

"You have legs too."

Ning Hong then directly ripped the bed sheet off her.

"Two legs are good."

"Oh my goodness, I haven't even drunk the potion the sea witch gave me yet, how did I turn into a human? It must be my love for the prince that moved heaven and earth and touched the sea god, which is why I turned into a human."

"Yes, that's right, but do you remember what your prince looked like?"

"Give me a pen, and I'll draw him."

In a cartoonist's home, the most abundant items are definitely paper and pens.

Ning Hong simply handed her a sketchbook and told her to go and draw.

"Once you've finished drawing, your brother will help you go find him."

"good."

Ningxi nodded and buried herself in drawing.

Seeing her sitting quietly drawing, Ning Hong also took out her sketchbook and started drawing.

About half an hour later, Ningxi looked up. "Brother, I've finished drawing."

"Alright, let your brother see what your prince looks like—is this the prince you've been dreaming of?"

Ning Hongze's voice suddenly rose an octave.

"Yes, this is the prince of my dreams."

Ningxi looked on longingly, "Brother, you must help me find him!"

"This one is a bit difficult."

Ningxi's drawing skills are quite good, as expected of his sister. But here's the problem: this is an anime character, and it is indeed a prince. But where is he going to find such a paper-thin prince?

"Is even my brother powerless?" Ning Xi slumped her shoulders. "In that case, I can only use my voice to search for him."

"Your voice?"

Ningxi spoke again.

He raised the volume a few notches and sang it out loud.

"Stop singing, stop singing, brother will help you find it, I'll definitely find it for you."
