Ghostwriter Thief
Su Liu stood outside the tent and chatted with Dang Xia for a while.
A few steps away, Xiao Cheng, who was inexplicably nervous, got up and opened the tent, intending to check the bolt of the sheep shed one last time before going to bed. But when he looked up, he saw the vampires.
"...Sir?" Xiao Cheng didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
"This is my backer. You have met him before," Su Liu introduced Dangxia to Xiao Cheng.
Su Liu's backer? Am I really worthy of that? Dang Xia suppressed his flattery and gave Xiao Cheng the gentlemanly salute typical of an aristocratic Alpha.
Now it was Xiao Cheng's turn to be flattered, "...I can't do that."
"It's okay, he's just an unemployed vagrant, just treat him as a human Alpha," Su Liu didn't think there was anything wrong and comforted him.
Although Su Liu said so, how could the vampires be compared with humans? Xiao Cheng didn't dare to act rashly.
Dang Xia twitched his lips and wanted to remind Su Liu that as a human Omega who made friends with the vampires through literature, it was impossible for him to occupy such a clear dominant position in front of the vampires. However, the only audience: Xiao Cheng, did not raise any doubts, so Dang Xia did not need to be the first to spoil the fun.
"Sir, would you like to drink something?" Xiao Cheng wasn't very good at flattering, and his words were very inappropriate. On this vast grassland, how could Dang Xia just drink whatever he wanted? Unless Xiao Cheng was willing to donate blood for Dang Xia to taste.
After saying this, Xiao Cheng bit his lip in annoyance and lowered his head. Blue veins appeared on the back of his neck, carrying a fragrance of strawberries.
This one is strawberry flavored.
Dang Xia stared at Xiao Cheng and suddenly swallowed.
Do you really think this is a buffet? Su Liu quickly stepped forward and kicked Dang Xia's knee, "What are you looking at?"
"...I'm not hungry." Dang Xia bent his knees slightly after being kicked by Su Liu. After he came to his senses, he immediately expressed his opinion, "Um...Xiao Cheng, why don't you go and rest first? Xiao...Xiao Hong and I have something to discuss."
Xiao Cheng shuddered at the sharp light of Dang Xia's pale fangs under the moonlight, and was stunned by the kick Su Liu gave Dang Xia. Where could Su Liu find such a backer? Xiao Cheng was extremely envious. With this dazed mentality, he returned to the tent like a wandering soul.
Ji He should have fallen asleep in the tent. Seeing Xiao Cheng come in, he asked sleepily, "What's wrong?"
"Ah? It's okay, it's okay, you go to sleep first." Xiao Cheng's voice was very low, and there was a hint of confusion in it, as if he hadn't figured out something.
The surroundings soon returned to silence.
"How are you doing with the book I asked you to find last time?" Su Liu communicated with Dang Xia in a voice imperceptible to humans.
"The book is very strange. The author must be very talented to be able to write such a unique and unprecedented style, but I always feel like something is wrong," Dang Xia also replied in a low voice.
"What do you mean?" Su Liu became interested.
Dang Xia had been secretly observing Su Liu's expression. Seeing Su Liu reveal that "Bo Le"-like admiring look again, Dang Xia's lips curled up, and his tone was full of joy. "I think this book is very much like... ghostwritten? It's like the person who wrote this book just heard a wonderful story from somewhere and... wrote it down. In fact, this book can't be considered written by him..."
Dang Xia was really bold and ahead of his time. No wonder he was regarded as a lunatic by his contemporaries/vampires.
After all, for the natives of this world, when encountering a strange thing, who would first think that it was creatures from other dimensions breaking into their world?
Dang Xia’s imagination is very close to the truth.
"What else?" Su Liu sounded like an unsatisfied yet expectant Party A.
Dang Xia was very pleased. He obviously liked this kind of emotionally charged Party A. The more he interacted with him, the more passionate he became. "This method is like that of a thief!"
"Thief?" Su Liu laughed. The original book's official partner probably never thought in his life that a new human like him with the halo of the protagonist would be described as a shameless thief in the mouth of a cannon fodder.
However, these two words are indeed very appropriate for the "female protagonist". In addition to plagiarizing classic and refreshing novels from different time and space, he also occupied someone else's body. In any sense, he is a thief.
"He's currently writing a new book titled 'Shocking! You're all actually coveting my wife,'" Dang Xia smacked his lips and continued, "Who's behind him? How come he has so many novel ideas?"
"......" Su Liu started coughing.
This book is the one that the king focused on in the original novel. The plot revolves around a harem of one A and many O. The core climax is this: the protagonist's wives are the white moonlight, jasmine flower, and cinnabar mole, women whom others might not even glance at.
Because of this, anyone who puts themselves in the role of the protagonist will be thrilled, and it has unsurprisingly become the most popular storybook among Alphas of the year.
Unlike the previously popular "My Overbearing Monarch: Are You Afraid of Loving Me?", which unfolded from the perspective of a poor Omega, this "Shock! You All Covet My Wife" is clearly dominated by the Alpha perspective, naturally attracting Alphas. Combined with the foundation laid by the previous book, the "female protagonist" is about to dominate the entire storytelling world.
By the way, he did hold a "book signing event" later on, which brought him both fame and fortune.
"What did the boss who sold you the books say? Where were the books reprinted?" Su Liu asked a rather sensitive question.
"The writer refused to reveal his real name, claiming to be a lay Buddhist who awakens the world and goes by the pseudonym 'Muxiachen.' His manuscripts were always given to fellow book lovers by different children, who in turn passed them on to bookshops. Finally, the booksellers commissioned storytellers to polish and promote the work. If the response was good, the booksellers would then produce engravings and print it into a book." Dangxia explained in detail. "A bookseller he was friendly with seemed to have inside information, saying that this 'Muxiachen' was the adopted wife of a certain important figure. The booksellers privately warned anyone who wanted to inquire about his identity not to speculate too much, for fear of offending someone they shouldn't."
"Little wife?" Su Liu smiled again. This word was too elegant. The first financial sponsor of the "female protagonist" was a human nobleman. His surname seemed to be Lu? He seemed to be one of the male protagonists who bullied Ji He in the "Grave Sweeping" extra-story, and the main branch of Lu Lin's family.
The opportunity for him to get close to the Lu family should have been after Andri "returned"...
After estimating the time, Su Liu found that the annual beauty pageant would open in three months. After thinking for a moment, he decided to sneak in and see what the situation was before making other plans.
At this time, Qi Fengling just came back.
The moment it landed, the little rabbit lantern was handed to Su Liu.
After completing the mission, Dang Xia was very tactful and immediately bowed and said goodbye, fearing that if he walked too slowly, he would be disliked by the two vampires in front of him.
"So soon?" Su Liu took the lantern. The little rabbit's ears trembled, and the oil paper was spotless, showing that it was well maintained.
"I wanted to come back to see you earlier," Qi Fengling followed Su Liu into the tent and saw Su Liu bending down to hang the lantern on the hook at the fork of the pillar. This action caused Su Liu's shirt to stretch forward, revealing a small part of her slender caramel-colored waist... Qi Fengling quickly turned his head away, his ears slightly red.
Su Liu pulled his clothes and looked back. Seeing that Qi Fengling was not staring at him in an indecent way, he smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that the previous sex education was very successful. He lay down with his clothes on and pointed to the side, waving to Qi Fengling, "Come here."
Qi Fengling was rethinking his relationship with Su Liu, thinking that he was destined to be deprived of even the chance to chat under the covers tonight. Unexpectedly, Su Liu actually called him over, "Is it okay? Su Liu."
"Why are you being so pretentious?" Su Liu was really surprised. "It's not the first time."
"Can I sleep next to you during the ambiguous period?" Qi Fengling was like an ignorant child, a little at a loss, but also with some hidden expectations.
Su Liu pointed at her mouth, "Who kissed you? Who was the one who had to break the window paper first? Now you're pretending to be innocent?"
"......" Qi Fengling lowered his head guiltily, his eyes filled with guilt and regret, like a poor student who failed the exam.
"What are you standing there for?" Su Liu was amused by Qi Fengling's behavior. "When your readers said your romance writing was bad, they didn't see you like this."
"...I really can't," Qi Fengling admitted his mistake in a low voice, as if he had thought of something, and his eyes lit up. "Su Liu, how did you know?"
As he spoke, Qi Fengling finally mustered up the courage to lie down next to Su Liu.
"I saw it," Su Liu turned her head to look at him.
"Is it really so bad?" Qi Fengling's eyes looked a little red.
"It's terrible. I want to scold you too. The relationship between the two protagonists is inexplicable. If you insist on sticking to it, it's a bit clichéd about being attracted by beauty," Su Liu said pertinently. "Can't the male protagonist who fights monsters and levels up be alone? Halfway through the plot, a wife suddenly pops up. How strange."
"The male protagonist can't have a wife?" Qi Fengling's rebellious nature was activated again. It seemed that someone had hit his sore spot.
"The male protagonist of the infinite flow should become a monk, how can he have a wife? Seeing them kissing makes me want to vomit. That wife has no charm at all. I really don't know why you wrote it," Su Liu insisted on rubbing salt into Qi Fengling's wound.
"If this is your evaluation, I respect it, but I'm sorry, I will delete your comment. Su Liu, I'm very angry," Qi Fengling stared at Su Liu seriously with a serious expression.
"You are very fatherly towards the characters you write," Su Liu was not angry because of Qi Fengling's expression, but laughed so hard that the disguise on his face trembled.
The curve of his profile was reflected on the tent, like a ghost.
"If I don't like it, I won't write. Although it's partly to vent my emotions, it's also my hard work. Scolding the character is like scolding myself." Qi Fengling's expression was still very ugly, as if the thing he loved was crushed by the person he loved. He didn't know whether to feel sorry for the thing or the person. "Are the characters I wrote really unattractive?"
"...Are you asking me? I can't write novels," Su Liu noticed that Qi Fengling was so helpless that he asked him. He thought that the frustration education he had given him that day was really too much. If he continued to belittle him, it would become mental abuse. "Your male protagonist is really charming. He looks handsome when he concentrates on his career."
"Do you like this kind of person?" Qi Fengling moved towards Su Liu and got closer.
"This kind of person might be more suitable to be my partner. He's a little too strong to be my husband. I don't like that," Su Liu thought for a moment and said honestly.
Qi Fengling laughed. Now he finally understood the crux of forcing the male protagonist to find a wife.
It turns out that it was matched wrongly.
"Are you your male lead?" Su Liu asked back.
"Not entirely," Qi Fengling's eyes sparkled. "Su Liu, if one day you discovered that I wasn't gentle at all, and was actually very domineering and strong, would you still like me?"
"You're always strong, how can you be gentle?" Su Liu scolded, generalizing. She bit her lip uncomfortably and simply turned over to avoid looking at Qi Fengling. She added in a low, resentful voice, "And you're also very scheming."
Qi Fengling smiled behind Su Liu.
"Then I'll try to be gentler?" Qi Fengling blew into Su Liu's ear.
"Do you understand love at all? Only because I like you can I tolerate your occasional crossing of the line. If I didn't like you, you would have suffered a long time ago." Su Liu was annoyed by him and said the truth.
"Su Liu, your heart is as unpredictable as the stars." Qi Fengling couldn't help but hug Su Liu's waist. Seeing that Su Liu didn't reject him, he leaned his chin on the back of Su Liu's neck, "I am such a lucky person."
"Yeah, I like sting operations," Su Liu said jokingly, "you better be careful."
Qi Fengling carefully sniffed Su Liu's gland and was about to say something when his ear moved.
Someone is coming.
Five hours passed so quickly.
It's time to get up and work.
