Chapter 212 A Little Cookie
Jiang Jianni ran out of the fire station in one breath, then suddenly stopped and covered her mouth to laugh.
To be honest, she had only been away for a few days, and she hadn't expected the longing to be so intense.
So much so that I forgot to eat, I was so eager to see that person.
They didn't have such intense feelings when they were together every day before.
She always thought she was a very cold person.
Back home, the four children had already started their afternoon nap.
Lu's mother was watching TV when she saw her and asked if she wanted to watch TV together: "This TV series is quite good."
The song being played now is "The Woman with the Well and the Windlass".
It was a very popular rural-themed TV series at that time.
Jiang Jiani had naturally heard of this show.
This show is actually a trilogy. The first part is called "The Fence, the Woman and the Dog," and this is the second part. There will be a third part in the future.
As someone who once wrote period novels to capitalize on trending topics and make money, Jiang Jianni also read these three once-famous dramas.
After reading it, I can only sigh; authors back then were much bolder than they are now.
Many of their ideas and dialogues are truly sharp and bold.
In contrast, online novel authors are like dancing in shackles, facing various restrictions.
This show is now being rebroadcast.
When the show premiered last year, she even considered writing a novel on a similar theme.
But after reading other authors' books on similar themes, I decided to give up.
To be honest, what she wrote is completely different from what other people write.
They are writing about life and recording experiences. If she were to write a novel on the same subject, it would be a disgrace to herself.
She might as well play to her strengths; at least that would be easier for her to write.
For example, right now.
Having already finished writing "The Sequel to Investiture of the Gods," she was wondering what else to write. But after meeting Lu Xiangyang, she suddenly felt like writing a sweet little story.
Not too many extreme characters, not too much drama, just ordinary daily life.
But she's really too used to adding special abilities to the characters she creates.
I originally just wanted to write a simple love story, but as I was writing the outline, it suddenly took on a mythological feel.
The female lead also transforms from an ordinary girl into a somewhat confused second-generation god who hides her identity to experience life in the human world.
Even the timeframe was set twenty years in the future by Jiang Jianni.
The streets are full of cars, tall buildings, overpasses and wide roads, and everyone is holding a mobile phone and using a computer to work.
Returning to her familiar territory, Jiang Jianni found herself overflowing with inspiration.
The second-generation god had just descended to earth when he got lost in the bustling traffic. Because he looked rich and his eyes revealed a clear-eyed stupidity, he was targeted by pyramid scheme operators.
The second-generation god had never eaten human food before, and even a simple boxed lunch amazed him. He devoured the equivalent of ten people's meals in one go.
They silenced even the leaders of the pyramid scheme.
But she was genuinely beautiful and obedient enough that the pyramid scheme leader tolerated her.
In less than a week, she not only ate all of the people's savings, but also beat them up in anger because she couldn't get food. This forced the people involved in the pyramid scheme to call the police to arrest her.
Then comes the first meeting between the female lead, a second-generation god, and the male lead, a police officer.
The first time the two met, the female lead asked the male lead if he had anything to eat, and even tried to rummage through his pockets.
She had only written a little bit when she got so excited about the interactions between the female and male leads that she couldn't stop writing.
In just one afternoon, he not only finished the outline and character design, but also wrote six thousand words of the main text.
Lu's mother came to the study door several times, but seeing that she was engrossed in typing, she didn't dare to disturb her.
Later, she couldn't bear the child's crying any longer, so she had to go to the study and pull her out: "Even if you're busy with work, you can't be busy all the time, can you?"
"Look at you, you haven't even had a sip of water all afternoon."
"You didn't even hear the child crying so loudly."
"Luckily, we hired someone to help take care of the child, otherwise the child would have starved."
Jiang Jianni then realized that it was already dark. She quickly stretched and shook her neck, making a series of cracking sounds: "Sorry, sorry, I forgot to check the time."
Lu's mother: "You're not sorry to me, you're sorry to the child."
"Look how pitifully the child is crying!"
"No matter how busy you are with work, you can't forget about your child, especially since the child is still so young."
“I know you young people value your careers more, but no matter how important your careers are, you can’t neglect your children, can you?”
"Now that we've brought this child into the world, we have to raise it well, right?"
Jiang Jiani knew she was in the wrong and lowered her head as the teacher reprimanded her.
But seeing the child's face red from crying, she felt sorry for him and couldn't help but say, "It won't happen again. I'll keep track of the time from now on."
Why.
How do other mothers balance work and life?
How long has it been? She has several helpers, and they are already quite busy.
Lu's mother is not one to meddle in other people's business.
If Jiang Jiani hadn't gone too far today, and the children hadn't been crying so pitifully, she wouldn't have opened her mouth.
Seeing that Jiang Jiani had taken his words to heart, he didn't say anything more.
Jiang Jiani kept her word.
I bought four or five alarm clocks in one go.
Even Lu's mother was speechless: "You really are..."
Jiang Jianni smiled awkwardly: "Well, I, I'm not afraid of forgetting the time. I'm setting multiple alarms so they all go off at once, and I'll definitely hear them."
Lu's mother was very skeptical: "Will this really work?"
Jiang Jianni sighed, "If all else fails, I'll have to ask Aunt Liu to call me."
She really does have a poor attention span.
When watching TV dramas, I can never concentrate on the show. I always end up reading novels, watching videos, playing games, or having a snack or drink.
But if we're talking about concentration, it really is concentrated.
When I see a book I like, or when I'm writing a book, once I'm immersed in it, I can't hear anything else.
Some authors like to listen to music while writing, but when Jiang Jianni writes, even if the volume is turned up to the maximum, she doesn't know what she's listening to.
It's a very strange kind of attention.
Lu's mother: "...Then don't you feel hungry?"
Jiang Jianni chuckled: "At a time like this, who thinks about whether they're hungry or not?"
For some people, love is enough to make them content.
Jiang Jiani is content with any book she has.
At my most addicted, I once went two days without eating and survived on water.
The headquarters of "Legend".
Editor Xiao Li took the received manuscript to the editor-in-chief: "Editor-in-chief, Teacher Jiang has finished writing 'The Sequel to Investiture of the Gods,' but she hasn't said what story she's going to write next."
"What if she doesn't write a new story and doesn't send the manuscript over? We'll be stuck with a blank page."
