When Takemoto Atsuki met Kitagawa Kokenji's cold and crazed gaze, he could sense the madness and violence hidden beneath it!
He had no doubt that a single wrong word from him could lead to the worst possible consequences.
Takemoto Atsuki didn't hesitate and chose to give in, "I'm willing to join the Magic Bean Club!"
Upon hearing that Takemoto Atsuki was willing to join, a hint of disappointment involuntarily flashed in Kitagawa Kenji's eyes.
Although this slight disappointment was only fleeting, Takemoto Atsushi still clearly caught it, which made him shudder involuntarily!
Kitagawa Kokenji then turned his gaze to Hou Wenjie, "President, please give your instructions!"
Hou Wenjie looked at him and said, "Let's leave it at that! You'll be in charge of the cleanup. I'll give you one day to get the manpower together. We'll have a meeting the day after tomorrow afternoon. Also, the matter of inviting the director and actors for the youth film needs to be put on the agenda. I already have a detailed plan, and I'll send it to your computer!"
"Yes, President, I will make the arrangements immediately!" Kitagawa Kokenji replied with a bow.
Hou Wenjie nodded, moved aside, and walked towards his car.
Pu Shangzhi hurriedly ran forward and opened the car door. After Hou Wenjie got in, he carefully closed the door, then quickly went to the driver's seat and started the vehicle.
The vehicle drove smoothly through the night.
Hou Wenjie looked at Pu Shangzhi, who was extremely reserved in the driver's seat, and asked, "Is this your first time killing someone?"
“Ah…yes, President!” Naoto Kamishiro remained reserved.
Hou Wenjie laughed and said, "Are you nervous?"
"Uh... President, I'll try my best, I'll try not to be nervous!" Naoto Pu Shang found himself suddenly stuttering.
Hou Wenjie asked, "Are you afraid of seeing blood? Or are you afraid of pain? Injury or death?"
Pu Shangzhi was silent for a moment, then said seriously, "I am not afraid of blood or pain. I don't know if I am afraid of death, maybe I am, maybe I am not."
I'm nervous because...because of you, President! You inspire awe in me!
Hou Wenjie laughed: "You're very interesting. I appreciate interesting people. From now on, you'll be in charge of driving for me."
"Uh...yes! President." Naoto Pu Shang was overjoyed that he had caught the president's eye so quickly and forgot his nervousness for a moment.
Before long, the car arrived smoothly at Hou Wenjie's rented apartment building.
Hou Wenjie returned to his rented room, washed up quickly, and went to sleep.
A dreamless night is a good omen.
Unfortunately, when I woke up in the morning, it was drizzling again.
Lonely people often associate rain with unpleasant things. Hou Wenjie thought back to that rainy night, when he listened to the rain all night long, from midnight to dawn, but he couldn't experience the feeling of listening to the spring rain all night in a small building in Gu Long's novel.
The Dream of the Red Chamber says, "Endless tears of longing fall like red beans; spring willows and flowers bloom endlessly in the painted pavilion; sleep is restless after the wind and rain at dusk; new sorrows and old sorrows cannot be forgotten; the taste of jade and golden water chestnuts is choked in the throat; and the reflection in the mirror cannot show the thin figure of the person."
Hou Wenjie, however, was not filled with sorrow, nor did he dwell on either new or old grief.
He simply felt that the drizzle made the world seem like a dream, giving him an unconscious feeling of being pricked by needles.
Today, he came to Magic Bean Bookstore to continue the novel that the young author had not finished.
Since I slept with the female lead, Kana, I've only been updating once a day for the past few days, a thousand words each time, trying my best to keep up. The plot hasn't progressed at all; I've just repeated the same things over and over again. One of my few remaining readers has left, even leaving a one-star review. Posting:
[No main plot, utterly chaotic, what is this? The beauties are fierce, but where are they? Give us more! We've only managed to seduce one so far, and even that was by force! Author, are you kidding me?!]
Hou Wenjie does not respond to one-star reviews, not because he is petty.
Rather, it's because writing a book is a long process, much like making friends. People gather together because of shared interests, raise various topics, and chat about their fantasies and lives.
But once someone gives a book a one-star rating, it means that they are no longer the target audience for your book, and they will never look at your book again, not even once.
So why cling to a stranger with whom you can never be friends?
Hou Wenjie didn't reply, but Xiaogui Stealing Vegetables and Matsushima Mami both replied to this reader.
Little Ghost Stealing Vegetables: [Haven't you ever seen a woman before? You think seducing a woman is that easy? You think she's some kind of figurine?]
Matsushima Mami: [The plot that was supposed to be a strong recommendation was inherently illogical, so stopping here was the right move.]
Seeing the readers posting so enthusiastically, Hou Wenjie felt that if he didn't update more today, he would be letting them down.
Hou Wenjie then proceeded to develop the plot.
The previous slow updates mainly focused on how, after being forcibly taken advantage of, Kana was in tears and depressed, expressing that she would never believe men's sweet talk again, that men were all bad and would only take advantage of women when they were most vulnerable.
The protagonist says he will definitely take responsibility.
In Xiangnai's eyes, the protagonist was just a rich playboy who couldn't give her any sense of security. But when it came to suing him, the moment her eyes met his handsome face and strong physique, she just couldn't bear to leave him.
Finally, ignoring the protagonist's various promises, Chanel checked out of the hotel and left this heartbreaking place.
Afterwards, the protagonist dominated the domestic futures market and was interviewed by financial reporters.
For example, when asked, "Why do you invest in stocks?", one might answer: "Because I'm naturally quite lazy, and stock trading is easy for me; it's something I can do while lying down."
Q: [What are your secrets to stock trading?] A: [I don't think I really understand stock trading; it's purely based on luck. When luck strikes, even a novice can beat a master.]
Q: [So what truly valuable advice do you have for the vast number of stock market investors? Um… don't say you don't recommend stock trading!]
A: Yes, the stock market is essentially a game between people! The stock market itself is an inanimate object, a man-made hunting ground; we are essentially fighting against each other!
As a great man once said, "To struggle with Heaven is endless joy! To struggle with Earth is endless joy! To struggle with Man is equally endless joy!"
If we want to compete with others, we must find a world that belongs to us alone, because only in our own world can a person fully unleash their potential and genius!
You might ask me, what is your own world?
Then let me tell you, in my own world, the reason there is a sun is because it shines on me!
The reason there is a moon in this world is because it knows I'm afraid of the dark!
The reason there is an earth in this world is because it is meant to carry me and let me see all the beautiful mountains and rivers!
Everything moves with me; this is my world!
As financial news outlets published details of the protagonist's billions in profits in the futures market, along with interview quotes, the internet erupted in discussion.
The protagonist's quotes were widely ridiculed and forwarded, and photos of him during interviews were turned into various memes. Many netizens dubbed him the "Stock Market Saint," though he was considered inferior to the "Stock God," and his title had a somewhat abstract feel to it.
Meanwhile, on the other side, after being forced into this situation, Chanel, who had been cooped up at home for many days without going out, naturally saw this viral news.
In her mind, the protagonist had become a nouveau riche who liked to play with women.
The above is a 5,000-word plot written by Hou Wenjie in various ways!
What he needs now is to advance the romantic relationship between the protagonist and Kana.
