Chapter 168 - Guidance

"I'm fine. I'm writing a novel. When inspiration strikes, I rush to write, so I'm busy. When I don't have any inspiration, it's pointless to rush, so I'm not busy anymore." Shi Feiye was speaking the truth, but she just said it casually, and Sun Quanzhang just listened to it. It was just a casual question anyway.

"I heard the copyright for your novel has been sold, and filming will start next month? I heard you're also assisting in the screenwriting. Second sister-in-law is really talented."

For some reason, when Shi Feiye heard Sun Quanzhang praising her, she always felt that he was speaking in a sarcastic way. She shrugged indifferently.

"It was sold, but it's just an ordinary drama. I don't know if it can be broadcast on TV. Otherwise, they wouldn't have agreed to let me be the assistant screenwriter."

"Second sister-in-law is so modest. Selling her first novel is something most people would beg for. It shows that she is quite talented." Sun Quanzhang continued to praise Shi Feiye.

Qian Bowen looked at Sun Quanzhang and then at Shi Feiye suspiciously: "When did Fourth Brother become so close to Shi Xiaojie?"

Sun Quanzhang slapped him on the back and said, "What Miss Shi? That's my second sister-in-law."

"Okay, then, Fourth Brother, when did you become so close to Second Sister-in-law?" Not only was Qian Bowen puzzled, Zou Lianxun was also puzzled. Even if Shi Feiye's novel copyright had been sold, she and Sun Quanzhang were still in no way related. Why did Sun Quanzhang suddenly praise Shi Feiye so highly? It made them feel very uncomfortable.

"I have a good relationship with my second brother, so of course I have to respect my second sister-in-law, right?" Sun Quanzhang had his own thoughts.

Shi Feiye shuddered, feeling something was amiss. She shook her head and said, "If you have something to say, just tell me."

"It's nothing, actually. Xiao Ke has her birthday next week, and I wanted to celebrate it for her, but she's not happy about it. You women are better at communicating with each other, so why don't you ask her to leave that day so I can give her a surprise?"

I knew that anyone who showed me kindness without any reason was either a traitor or a thief. It turned out that he had bad intentions. Shi Feiye refused without even thinking:

"Ake and I are friends. If I really did that, it would be a disservice to our friendship. No, absolutely not. If you want to invite her to do something, you have to figure it out on your own. Don't try these crooked ways. It will only ruin my good impression."

Sun Quanzhang was a little anxious that Shi Feiye would reject him without a second thought, but after hearing the last sentence, he restrained himself: "Why would I lose my favor? I wanted to give her a surprise."

"Have you never seriously pursued a girl before?" Shi Feiye suspected that Sun Quanzhang was a straight man, just like Qin Da Lao.

"I'm so busy all day, how can I have time to chase girls? Xiao Ke is the first person I've ever fallen in love with." Sun Quanzhang emphasized the word "first time" deliberately. He had to make this clear. Otherwise, Master Feiye might misunderstand and spread rumors in front of Zhang Kezhi, or he would burst into tears.

"Oh, fourth brother, you actually have a girl you like. No, that girl called Zhang Kezhi, isn't she the girl from some old friend's family that your grandfather asked you to take care of?"

Qian Bowen grasped the meaning of the two people's communication, as if he had discovered a new world:

"I still remember that you used to despise your old man for arranging a blind date for you. Who was it that said with a look of disdain that the girl would definitely cause you trouble? Now you are actually moved. Tsk tsk, fourth brother, doesn't it hurt when you hit yourself in the face?"

Sun Quanzhang wiped his face and said, "First, restore your double eyelids that were pulled out of shape to normal before you speak."

"Hahahaha, Fifth Brother, you actually have the guts to tease Fourth Brother. Hahahaha, it hurts, doesn't it?" Zou Lianxun laughed so hard at the two of them that he almost spilled the wine in his glass.

"What are you laughing at? I know you have white teeth." Qian Bowen shrugged and glanced at Zou Lianxun. Damn it, it's not his fault that he was born with double eyelids. Even if he had double eyelids, he was still the most handsome guy in the universe.

"Huh, you have big European double eyelids, is that so great? Nowadays, any plastic surgery clinic can do this kind of big European double eyelids. If you go out, at least five out of ten people will have the same style. You don't feel disgusted. Double eyelids like mine are the special ones. What do you know, little brat?"

"Brother, I understand your sadness. Fifth brother, don't wash it. We all know each other." Zou Lianxun simply put the wine glass on the table. Faced with Qian Bowen's forced self-preservation, he not only did not restrain himself, but laughed even louder.

This is so unlucky. Why did they choose this guy as their brother when they were young?

Qian Bowen didn't mention Zou Lianxun anymore. As Zou Lianxun said, these brothers all knew each other, so it would be a waste of words to talk about them.

Sun Quanzhang was too lazy to pay attention to them and continued to urge Master Feiye: "Second sister-in-law, you haven't explained why you lost your favor."

"Although TV dramas and novels often depict men pursuing women by placing flowers downstairs, creating romantic scenes, and saying a lot of romantic things, and then finally winning them over, this isn't the case in real life. The love stories in novels and TV are all embellished."

Shi Feiye acted like he was teaching someone, but Sun Quanzhang actually listened attentively:

"Generally speaking, in real life, only when the relationship between two people is established will such a thing not arouse girls' disgust. Of course, I'm talking about girls like A Ke. Those who are born to like being pampered are not in the same category."

Sun Quanzhang waved his hand and said, "Other women have nothing to do with me. Don't bother with them. Just talk about the one related to Xiao Ke."

"If it's about Xiao Ke, my most important advice to you is to retreat when the enemy advances, and advance when the enemy retreats. You can be persistent, but don't force it. If she gets angry, distance yourself and act like you only treat her as a sister. If she's not so cold to you, try to get closer and play the victim a little."

Sun Quanzhang frowned tightly: "Does it work? I used to do this, except playing the victim."

"Ake is the type of person who's used to handling things on her own. Showing weakness is more effective than showing strength when facing her. She's a soft-hearted person, and your actions may not be ineffective; it just takes time for them to seep in."

Shi Feiye spoke so clearly and logically, as if she really knew everything. She also thought she knew a lot, after all, she was someone who had researched a lot of information in order to write a novel.

However, I can clearly see other people's feelings, but it's hard to tell when it comes to my own, a typical trait of single people.

Sun Quanzhang thought that what Master Feiye said made sense, and it was not that he did not understand, but it was just that when he first met someone he liked, he inevitably lost his composure and became a little anxious.
