Chapter 104
Qi Zixi had just finished analyzing the script with the director of her new drama. She was so tired that she collapsed on the sofa without even taking off her clothes and fell asleep without realizing it.
She had a dream, and it was very real.
In my dream, I am still a little-known author on Jinjiang APP. As time goes by, I finally become a one-star author. However, it takes at least three months for a novel to be started, listed, become a V-rated author, and completed.
An income of over 10,000 yuan in three months means an average of more than 3,000 yuan per month.
Although this income is considered to be better than most in a small county town, it is better than most.
But after deducting the social security fees I have to pay, I can't save much money except for the rent, and I can only make ends meet.
Friends and relatives don’t know the author of the online novel either.
They just thought she was an unemployed vagrant without a proper job, so they advised her to find someone to marry while she was still young.
Her parents have been gossiped about by neighbors because she is still unmarried at the age of 28. Her mother was even forced to beg her to get married. Even if it is not suitable, she can still be a normal woman after getting divorced.
She didn't understand her parents' thoughts, but she had no ability to get rid of them.
Finally she compromised. After repeated setbacks in blind dates, she lost her little self-confidence.
Finally she got married.
Married to a divorced man with no children who graduated from high school in a county town.
Life after marriage is even more trivial. There are no big things, but small things are endless.
She no longer has the energy to continue writing novels.
Everyone told her that a normal woman should live a life where the man is the breadwinner and the woman is the homemaker.
In the fifth year of their marriage, when she was pregnant with their second child, her husband cheated on her with a female student. This matter was brought up by the student's parents. She pleaded for her husband even though she was pregnant, and only hoped that the parents would not call the police and resolve the matter privately.
Because she couldn't let her husband go to jail and she had to consider her children.
Finally, the matter was settled by selling the house.
Her husband, who lost his job, was completely humiliated in this small county town and eventually passed away, and she couldn't find him.
Her mother-in-law came to bother her again and again, blaming her for not being able to control her man and causing her son to be missing to this day.
She moved back to her parents' home and raised two children by herself, acting as both a father and a mother.
He is less than 40 years old, but he lives like he is 50.
Her mother regretted forcing her to get married.
Sometimes she even feels lucky that her mother chose her husband and she did not express any opinion. If she had chosen him herself, would she say now, "You were blind at the time." '
There is no end in sight for life, but she can only persevere for the sake of her children.
Finally, she got hope.
The novel she wrote before her marriage, "I Became an Immortal After the Revival of Spiritual Energy," suddenly became a hit.
To be more precise, this type of subject matter has become popular.
Although she hasn't written novels on the Jinjiang APP for many years, she signed the longest contract of 20 years in order to climb the Natural List. The contract had not expired yet. She opened the author's backstage which she had not seen for a long time and saw the income of nearly 100,000 yuan. She cried.
If she had persisted, would her life have been different?
What followed were film and television copyrights and game copyrights.
She became a Jinjiang five-star author.
She looked in the mirror and saw herself now with white hair, fine lines on her face and an old look. Ten years seemed so long that she had lost herself.
Fortunately, it’s never too late to start over.
Her husband disappeared for ten years, and the first thing she did was to go to court to file for divorce.
This time her parents didn't stop her.
After maintenance, repair and minor plastic surgery, she seemed like a different person after a few months.
People would believe her if she said she was 30 years old, but when she took her daughter and son out, many people wouldn't believe that their children were that big.
Everything in life got better.
But God played another joke on her.
Her ex-husband, who had disappeared for ten years, came back and fought with her for custody, saying that her income was the common property of the couple.
She consulted a lawyer, and since her marriage to her ex-husband was still going on when she sold the copyright, it was very disadvantageous to her, and she would still have to take some of the profit.
As for the custody of the children, she doesn't need to worry. Although two children will usually be kept by each party, due to the man's irresponsible behavior of disappearing, and the children's own wishes will also be respected.
When her parents found out, they cursed her, but what could they do?
Just when she was ready to spend money to avoid disaster, her ex-husband was arrested for human trafficking fraud.
It turns out that during the ten years he disappeared, he actually ran away to Myanmar.
In ten years, he actually became the person in charge of the factory.
It goes without saying how many evil things he has done in the past ten years.
She was probably going to be shot. When she was rejoicing that she had finally gotten rid of him, the victim's family came to her and they couldn't believe that she had no contact with him for ten years.
Because her works have been adapted into film and television, she is considered a public figure with some fame.
For a time, netizens who hated evil and did not know the truth began to expose her online, and the child was bullied and isolated.
Because of her, the newly launched work was also boycotted.
She explained live and showed all the evidence to netizens.
But there are still people who are only willing to believe what they want to believe and don't care about the truth of the facts.
When she was exhausted both physically and mentally and was about to collapse, the bad news came.
Her son was hit and killed by a car on the highway, and the driver was a member of the victim's family.
She couldn't hold on any longer, so she used her remaining strength to send her sensible daughter to a big city, letting her start a new life in anonymity. After arranging everything, she sat in front of her son's tombstone...
Qi Zixi woke up in a sweat, luckily it was just a dream.
Scared to death.
