The waiter came in with a small stack of books and magazines, about dozens of them.

Yang Xin has been quite busy these days and hasn't had time to read. Now, he finally has some free time.

These books and periodicals were printed and published by several other bookstores this month.

Yang Xin read these books and periodicals not only because he loved reading, but also because new vernacular writers often appeared in these books and periodicals.

If he saw something good, Yang Xin would dig it out to Taohua Bookstore.

Taohua Bookstore now has many famous authors in the storytelling industry, which has added a lot of income to Taohua Bookstore's monthly profits.

But Yang Xin felt it was not enough.

It’s not that I don’t make enough money, but that I don’t have enough books.

It’s not that there aren’t enough books, but the content and routines of the books nowadays are almost the same. The only difference is whether the writing is good or not.

However, Yang Xin felt that it was not enough. Today's vernacular novels need novel ideas, unique content, and the ability to catch people's attention and move their hearts.

The best thing would be to have a storybook that would make people truly forget about food and sleep when reading it.

But it is very difficult to find such a script.

Yang Xin lay on the chaise longue bored, picked up the top book and started flipping through it.

She flipped through the pages quickly, scanning them one after another.

The main reason is that there is nothing good in the book to attract her attention.

After a while, she had read half of the books and magazines. After a while, she had read all the books and magazines except the last one.

"The latest issue of Fengya Bookstore?" Yang Xin picked up the last one.

I heard that this Fengya Bookstore is a new bookstore that opened in Renhe County in the past few months. I heard that the books sold there are quite complete, including miscellaneous books, but basically no high-quality ones.

Just now, Yang Xin also read a few books and magazines from Fengya Bookstore, and the storytelling books in them were really not that good.

Looking at the book in his hand, Yang Xin was a little hesitant.

After thinking about it, I decided to open it and take a look.

I only saw the name of the first story on the first page, and the name was written on it: The Imperial Merchant’s Substitute Husband.

Um?

Yang Xin raised her eyebrows slightly. This name was quite new.

She had not seen the name of this storybook in the previous books published by Fengya Bookstore, so she guessed it was written by a new author.

With anticipation for the new author, Yang Xin read on, and was immediately fascinated.

As mentioned earlier, the first three thousand words of "The Imperial Merchant's Substitute Husband" have already described the one-night stand between the male and female protagonists. Then the male protagonist Bai Mianyang wakes up and leaves in the morning, and Meng Xin sends someone to investigate Bai Mianyang.

"Bai Mianyang?" Meng Xin muttered, carefully studying the information the secret guards had gathered about Bai Mianyang. On the table, a portrait of Bai Mianyang also lay. Her gaze seemed glued to it. It looked like, so like, almost 70% like Lu Ning. Thinking of Lu Ning, Meng Xin felt a dull ache in her heart.

After the ridiculous night with Bai Mianyang last night, and seeing Bai Mianyang's portrait, Meng Xin became interested in him. He went to the brothel again, and when he saw Bai Mianyang from afar, his heart was even more stirred.

From the moment she saw Bai Mianyang, Meng Xin decided that she would keep him by her side and treat him as Lu Ning's substitute. Even if she couldn't have Lu Ning, having him as her substitute was also a good thing.

So, under Meng Xin's design, when Bai Mianyang was on stage singing and a greasy woman wanted to force Bai Mianyang, Meng Xin saved him.
