"What's the point of arguing about this? We'll see the real person when the annual meeting starts, right? We can find out by asking around then. There's no need to ruin our relationship."
But Tang Jia Liu Shao still refused to give up, his eyes fixed on the jade rabbit, a provocative smile playing on his lips:
"Since you're so sure you're a newbie, how about we make a bet?"
Jade Rabbit really wanted to roll her eyes – she had only made a casual remark, but in her heart she had already assumed that the author of "Lord of Mysteries" was not a newcomer.
But as a woman from Sichuan and Chongqing, she has an indomitable spirit in her bones, and naturally she would not back down when provoked like this.
He looked up to meet Tang Jia Liu Shao's gaze, his tone crisp and decisive:
"A prize? Sure, how would you like to bet?"
Tang Jia Liu Shao's smile deepened, his tone tinged with amusement:
"Today is a great day for the annual meeting, and there will be many fans and industry professionals coming over tonight. How about this, whoever loses has to come on stage and perform a talent tonight, like dancing."
Wow!
Upon hearing this, the others in the private room were all taken aback.
This is going too far! These authors, who spend most of their time at home writing, can't even walk a few steps without getting out of breath, let alone dance. Going on stage to dance is practically public execution. Just thinking about it is incredibly embarrassing, and they might even become the laughingstock of the industry, completely humiliating themselves.
Jade Rabbit's face instantly darkened, and a hint of anger surged in her eyes.
She never expected that the sixth young master of the Tang family would be so outrageous as to set a trap for her like this.
But since things have already come to this point, backing down would only put us at a disadvantage.
She gritted her teeth and forced herself to speak:
"Fine! Whoever loses has to go up on stage and dance. Anyone who doesn't is a coward!"
At worst, we can just treat it as marketing.
As a woman, wouldn't it be enough for me to just slap her a few times?
Tang Jia Liu Shao smiled smugly, as if victory was already in his grasp:
"Okay! It's a deal! Let's wait and see who will go up on stage to dance."
The atmosphere inside the private room instantly became increasingly tense because of this bet.
Wherever there are people, there is a world of its own. This saying is especially true in the world of novels.
The old sayings "literary men despise each other" and "professional rivals are enemies" are perfectly embodied in this author.
On the surface, they chatted and drank tea in a friendly manner, but in reality, they were each competing with each other and neither was willing to admit defeat.
Seeing Tang Jia Liu Shao's smug and aggressive demeanor, Yu Tu could no longer suppress her impatience and rolled her eyes in front of everyone without any attempt to hide it.
His eyes rolled back so wide and clearly, the mockery in them almost overflowing—this person not only had an ugly way of eating, but was also extremely persistent, making him utterly annoying.
Seeing this, Tang Jia Liu Shao wanted to say something more, continuing to be quick-witted and suppress Yu Tu's unconvinced momentum.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Yu Tu deftly pulled a pair of white earphones from her bag, quickly put them in her ears, and deliberately raised her hand to press the earphones twice to adjust the volume, completely blocking out his voice.
Yu Tu leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes, and tilted her head slightly to one side, adopting an attitude of "I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense," not even bothering to spare a glance for Tang Jia Liu Shao.
For her, it was better to listen to music and have a moment of peace than to waste time arguing with such a person.
