Feng Xiyun made jokes, Feng Ming talked about some anecdotes in the capital, and Tu Nan talked about some of his experiences on the road. The three young men accompanied the Third Prince for a pleasant lunch and then said goodbye and left.
Feng Ming finally got rid of the Third Prince by begging and pleading. She coldly rejected the Third Prince's request to keep her for half a day, and happily followed Feng Xiyun and Tu Nan to go out of the city for an outing and horse racing.
Because the weather was good, the three decided to walk slowly to Donghua Gate and asked their followers to prepare horses there. Fengming also knew how to ride a horse.
When the three of them passed Wenzhu Street, they found that Wenhuatang, the largest bookstore in the capital, was crowded with people and a long queue was formed in an orderly manner. Fengming suddenly screamed "Ah", and then she remembered that today was the day when Mo Wen's new book was released!
Fengming has been busy lately and obsessed with men, so she actually forgot such an important thing. She really misses the automatic schedule reminder function on her mobile phone in her previous life.
"What's wrong, sister?" Feng Xiyun was looking at the people in line curiously. When she heard Feng Ming's voice, she turned around and found that Tu Nan was also looking at her with concern. Suddenly, she felt her ears a little hot. "Feng Ming, control yourself, control yourself. Think about how many handsome men you saw in your previous life."
"Today is the day when Master Mo Wen's new book is released. Have you forgotten?"
"Ah! How could I forget such an important thing? Ah, it's all because of that Bai Wanshuang, she really pissed me off." Feng Xiyun anxiously clenched his left fist and clapped his right hand, then stretched his neck to look at the long line, his voice very disappointed: "What should I do? This time, only the first hundred people can buy the new book signed by Master Mo Wen, woo..."
Fengming was also very disappointed. This was the first time in her two lives that she had chased an author like a star.
Mo Wen, a vernacular novelist who suddenly became a hit in Daqing five years ago, has a distinctly Daqing-style Jin Yong vibe. His writing style is calm and composed, often depicting political intrigues and the struggles of the underworld, even touching on romantic relationships. His larger-scale narratives are imposing, while his smaller characterizations are meticulously detailed.
What Fengming admired most about Mo Wen's characters was that they weren't blindly heroic; even the most righteous and righteous had a dark side. Furthermore, the male characters in Mo Wen's books weren't just studs who fell in love with everyone they met, which really appealed to Fengming, a young woman.
Fengming felt that even if Mo Wen was released in 2018, he would still be a superb author.
Whenever Mo Wen publishes a new book, Feng Ming will buy it and read it as soon as possible. She also often recommends Mo Wen's books to the gossip daily. This is the first time that he has published a signed new book and she really wants it.
Mo Wen was a mysterious figure. Even Wenhuatang, the publisher of his novels, didn't know who he was, how old he was, whether he was a man or a woman, where he lived, or whether he was handsome or ugly. A child would always deliver the manuscripts to Wenhuatang and collect the royalties. The fact that there were 100 signed copies this time was reportedly due to Wenhuatang owner Lin Mo writing dozens of letters to secure the prize.
However, taking another unwilling look at the line that stretched from the beginning to the end of the street and then made a circle, Feng Ming had to accept that he had missed the chance to get his book signed. He exchanged a disappointed and sad look with Feng Xiyun, and both of them sighed in disappointment.
"Feng... ahem... Princess, do you... do you want to buy Mr. Mo Wen's new book?"
"Yeah."
Feng Ming didn't have the energy to answer the questions asked by Tu Nan, who had been watching him for half a day. Ben Tu, the rabbit who was so sad that he cried like a rabbit cake after the poisonous tongue died in Zootopia, answered listlessly.
"Well, let's go line up now, we should be able to buy it." Tuanan continued.
"Alas, you don't understand. We want Mr. Mo Wen's autographed book, and only the first 100 people can get it," Feng Xiyun replied. At this point, he glanced at the long line again, unwilling to give up, and said helplessly, "But look at the number of people, alas!"
Tunan looked at Feng Xiyun, then at Tunan, and smiled secretly: "Maybe, I have a way."
