Chapter 109 Covered up tightly
Yun Li treated her well and never cheated her in the contract, so Shen Xuewei trusted her to some extent.
She was willing to believe to some extent the people Yun Li introduced.
However, the book is only in its early stages, so it's too early to say anything about it now.
I chatted with Feng Xuemei for a few more minutes before ending our conversation.
Just as Shen Xuewei was about to close the QQ page, an editor she hadn't contacted in a long time suddenly sent her a message.
Editor Yunduo: Weiwei, it's rare to see you online. We haven't been in touch for a long time. How have you been?
Editor Yunduo: Do you have any new works recently? If so, you might consider our magazine.
Shen Xuewei twitched the corners of her mouth and sent a perfunctory message.
Becoming a rich woman soon: Not bad. Sorry, I don't have any new works lately, I have to do my summer homework.
The other person seemed to sense her cold attitude and only replied with: "Okay, then you do your homework and I won't bother you anymore."
Editor Yun Duo was the first editor she had ever added since she started writing novels, and also the only editor who ever caused her trouble.
She submitted her first work to her; at that time, she was a complete novice and knew nothing.
He received his royalties, but because he hadn't carefully read the contract, he lost the copyright to his novel...
Novels serialized in magazines are usually copyrighted by the author.
However, if the contract explicitly stipulates that the copyright is transferred to the magazine, then the copyright belongs to the magazine.
When Shen Xuewei received the contract, she only glanced at it and thought there were no problems, so she signed it and sent it back to them.
This signing resulted in the loss of the copyright as well.
Later, I submitted the article to Tangtang, an editor at another magazine. I noticed that the contract she sent was somewhat different from the previous one, and after asking around, I discovered the problem.
She had signed the contract using her grandmother's name, and it was indeed her grandmother's name that was signed.
Once the contract is in effect, there's no use regretting it.
Having learned her lesson, Shen Xuewei knew she couldn't get the copyright back for the novel, and from then on, she didn't plan to cooperate with these small magazines anymore.
The editors added later all come from relatively large and reputable magazines.
They offered good compensation and didn't cheat her in the contract, so she started submitting her work to them regularly.
She didn't delete Yunduo's QQ account, but that was all.
As for submitting articles? I will absolutely not submit any more to her.
Shen Xuewei had been sitting in front of the computer for too long, so she quickly turned her stiff neck and twisted her waist.
Her joints cracked and popped for a while, and she let out a long sigh, feeling much more comfortable.
After recovering somewhat, and taking advantage of her excellent touch and inspiration, she continued typing on the computer, finishing the rest.
She sat in front of the computer, full of creative passion, and stayed up all night in high spirits.
The next morning at six o'clock, she saved what she had written, then saved the document to her email drafts and deleted the record from her computer.
After doing all that, she yawned and went out with dark circles under her eyes.
After washing up, she sat down at the dining table, her eyelids drooping, and picked up a fried dough stick to eat.
Chen Fangyang and Zhao Xiannan looked at her at the same time. Zhao Xiannan asked hesitantly, "Weiwei, didn't you sleep last night?"
Shen Xuewei lowered her head and drank her soy milk, avoiding their gaze.
"I went to sleep, but I might have had some insomnia, so I went to bed a little late."
Zhao Xiannan was skeptical, while Chen Fangyang stood up, went to the guest room, and touched the computer.
Great, the computer is still warm to the touch.
His face darkened, guessing that Shen Xuewei had probably been playing on the computer all night.
Thinking of this, he put on a sullen face, went back to his room, found a clothes rack, and stood next to Shen Xuewei with an unfriendly expression.
"Tell me, did you really sleep last night?"
Shen Xuewei felt guilty, but she stubbornly tried to appear calm and said, "Of course we slept together. Would I lie to you?"
Chen Fangyang sneered, "Then tell me, why is the computer tower in your room so hot?"
Shen Xuewei inwardly cursed her bad luck, but had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:
"That's because...because I just got up and played around for a bit..."
Chen Fangyang's lips tightened. "Didn't you say you went to bed late? How come you're waking up early now?"
He didn't intend to listen to Shen Xuewei's excuses and shouted sternly, "Put out your hand, I'm going to teach you a lesson on behalf of your grandparents!"
Shen Xuewei ducked down, jumped off the chair, and hid behind Zhao Xiannan.
"Brother Xiannan, my second uncle is going to beat me to death! Please save me!"
Zhao Xiannan, like a mother hen, firmly shielded Shen Xuewei behind him.
"Uncle Yang, let's talk this out. Weiwei is still young. Don't hit her all the time."
Taking advantage of his height, Chen Fangyang stretched the clothes hanger over Zhao Xiannan's shoulder and slapped Shen Xuewei's hand.
Shen Xuewei winced in pain, tears streaming down her face as she accused, "Second Uncle, you're so cruel!"
Seeing her with tears in her eyes, Chen Fangyang's anger subsided.
He tossed aside the clothes hanger in his hand and said earnestly, "Weiwei, your second uncle is doing this for your own good. Don't get addicted to computers and neglect your studies. If your grandfather finds out, he'll give us both a good scolding."
"Your second uncle barely managed to get through this, so don't ruin it for him."
Shen Xuewei rubbed her hands and said listlessly, "I know, Second Uncle. I just haven't played on the computer in a long time, and I got a little engrossed. It'll only be this once, it won't affect my grades."
She would never tell her second uncle about writing a novel.
My second uncle has been trying to please my maternal grandfather lately by telling him everything. He'll probably spill the beans about her soon.
As for her identity, it seems she still needs to keep it completely hidden for now.
Zhao Xiannan looked back and forth between the two of them and reminded them, "Why don't you hurry up and eat breakfast? Isn't our train at seven o'clock? If we're any later, we'll be too late."
Upon hearing this, the two sat down again and continued eating breakfast.
After a quick breakfast, the three of them left home around 6 a.m. and arrived at the train station on time.
Shen Xuewei handed her temporary ID card to the staff, and after it was successfully processed, she picked up her backpack and boarded the train with the two of them.
The three of them had booked a soft sleeper compartment. Shen Xuewei lay down in the soft sleeper compartment and fell fast asleep before the train even started moving.
She had already thought it through while rushing to finish her draft last night: it would take more than six hours to get to Greentown by train, and more than three hours to fly from Greentown to Beijing.
She sleeps on trains and planes, and after a couple of naps, she's back to normal, not hindering her travel plans.
Zhao Xiannan carried a bag of snacks and sat down, intending to invite Shen Xuewei and Chen Fangyang to eat.
Looking back, I found that Shen Xuewei was already fast asleep.
