Chapter 407 I want to sever the brother-sister relationship with you!
Chen Yang had no choice but to follow Yao Juan to her room.
As soon as he entered, Chen Yang asked: "What on earth is so mysterious?"
Yao Juan immediately took the June issue of "Youth of the Century" from the bedside table and asked: "Brother, what is the plot of this issue of your novel? Tell me about it!"
Only then did Chen Yang understand that this was what Yao Juan was asking.
Chen Yang smiled, walked to the desk and sat down: "It's not impossible to know the plot in advance, but I just want to ask, what are the benefits to me?"
Yao Juan thought for a while and said, "Brother, I'll treat you to KFC, or kebabs!"
Chen Yang shook his head: "Not interested."
Yao Juan thought again, frowned and said, "Then I'll ask you to sing K!"
"It's boring." Chen Yang still shook his head.
Yao Juan paused and asked: "Then what do you want? Tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely agree!"
After saying that, Yao Juan looked at Chen Yang expectantly.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yang said: "I don't want anything."
Yao Juan was stunned for a moment, and then her face fell: "Brother, you are kidding me!"
Chen Yang smiled and said: "Whether I am reading a book or watching a TV show, what bothers me most is spoilers, so I will definitely not reveal anything."
"Besides, there are only two issues left to finish the series. Can't you wait patiently?"
Yao Juan said distressedly: "Brother, I'm your sister! Why don't you even agree to this little thing?"
Chen Yang snorted slightly, and then said: "I don't know you yet? If I tell you the following plot, you still have to spread it all over the street. It will definitely affect the magazine's sales to a certain extent!"
"Brother, is there really no room for negotiation at all?" Yao Juan still refused to give up.
Chen Yang shook his head decisively, his face meticulous.
Yao Juan was immediately very discouraged, turned around and threw the magazine on the bedside table.
"I don't want to talk to you anymore! Because from now on, I will sever the brother-sister relationship with you!" Yao Juan turned her head and said angrily.
"Are you sure?" Chen Yang asked with a smile.
Yao Juan said loudly: "Definitely, definitely and definitely!"
After hearing this, Chen Yang stood up slowly, shrugged and said helplessly: "Originally, I wanted to say that although I can't reveal the plot of this novel to you now, I can still talk to you about the plot of my next new book. of......"
Hearing this, Yao Juan's expression suddenly changed and she stared at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang pretended not to notice, and took a step to walk out: "But since we have severed the relationship between brother and sister, there is nothing to talk about, bye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yang was grabbed by Yao Juan's arm who rushed over.
Yao Juan smiled flatteringly. She first pushed Chen Yang back into the chair, and then said shamelessly: "Brother, I'm joking with you. How could I sever the brother-sister relationship with you? Hehe... ..”
Chen Yang leaned back in his chair and said with some dissatisfaction in his lazy voice: "I've been here for so long and I don't even have a drink..."
"Brother, what do you want to drink? Coke, orange juice or iced black tea, I'll get it right now!" Yao Juan said diligently.
"Whatever, just ice." Chen Yang pretended to be proud.
Without saying a word, Yao Juan immediately ran out of the room, went to the kitchen refrigerator to get a bottle of iced Coke, and put it in front of Chen Yang with both hands.
"Well, you are sensible." Chen Yang glanced at Yao Juan with raised eyebrows and reached out to take it.
Yao Juan moved a stool over and sat down and asked, "Brother, have you started writing a new book? Tell me what the story is."
Chen Yang unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of ice coke. He suddenly felt a chill in his body and his mood instantly improved a lot.
Then, Chen Yang said: "My new book is called "Chang'an Rebellion"..."
On the other side, in the kitchen.
Grandma Xiao Lixiu and her two daughters are preparing meals.
Xiao Lixiu was sitting by the kitchen door picking vegetables, Zhao Zhaoxia was frying hairtail in front of the stove, and Zhao Caixia was chopping potatoes.
The mother and daughter chatted about their parents' differences at first, but after a while the topic shifted to Chen Yang.
Zhao Zhaoxia asked: "Caixia, I heard from Juanjuan some time ago that Xiao Yang serialized a novel in a magazine, and I heard that he also earned a lot of royalties!"
After hearing this, Xiao Lixiu also answered: "Yes, Caixia, if Juanjuan hadn't come back and mentioned it, we wouldn't have known about it. Why didn't you tell us?"
Zhao Caixia suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and said with an embarrassed face: "Mom, sister, I'm actually... I'm actually embarrassed to say this."
"Why?" Zhao Zhaoxia was puzzled: "It's a good thing to be able to serialize novels in magazines! I heard from Juanjuan that that magazine is still a very famous magazine, and most high school students will read it."
"Yes, Caixia! Xiao Yang has published his novel in such a prestigious magazine. This is called promising and capable! It's too late for our family to be happy for him. Why are you embarrassed to say it?" Xiao Lixiu also said.
Zhao Caixia said hurriedly: "No...Mom, sister, Xiao Yang's novel is about...about love. He is still a high school student himself and has not grown up yet. It will make people laugh if you go out.”
"No way!"
Zhao Zhaoxia immediately shook her head. She turned the hairtail in the pot and said, "I think it's quite normal. Who didn't have these thoughts when they were in high school?"
"Xiao Yang dares to write out what he is thinking and publish it in a magazine. That is his ability! If I were you, it would be too late to be proud and happy for him!"
Xiao Lixiu and her eldest daughter had the same idea, and nodded in agreement after listening.
Afterwards, Xiao Lixiu and Zhao Zhaoxia praised Chen Yang with their beautiful words.
Although Zhao Caixia kept shaking her head and looking humble, she was happy in her heart, and the smile on her lips never disappeared.
When the hairtail in the pot was fried to golden color on both sides and the aroma filled the entire kitchen, Xiao Lixiu suddenly asked: "By the way, Caixia, how much is the royalties for Xiao Yang's novel?"
Zhao Zhaoxia also wanted to know the answer to this question.
When Yao Juan came back that day, she just said that she had earned royalties, but it was not clear how much the royalties were.
Zhao Caixia smiled and said truthfully: "It's almost fifty thousand yuan."
Zhao Caixia has always been very close to her mother and sister, and she will not tell lies on these issues.
Moreover, Chen Yang also told her before coming here that if grandma and aunt asked about royalties, just tell the truth.
"Fifty thousand? That's so much!" Xiao Lixiu was so surprised that she stopped picking vegetables.
Zhao Zhaoxia was also surprised, but her expression was not as exaggerated as her mother's.
"Caixia, your Xiaoyang is so awesome. You can make so much money just by writing. You and your brother-in-law will be very lucky in the future!" Zhao Zhaoxia was envious and happy.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Zhaoxia thought of her incompetent daughter, and suddenly her heart felt a little blocked, and she had a vague urge to deal with her.
Next, the three people's conversations were all about Chen Yang, and they almost couldn't praise Chen Yang to the heavens.
After a while, Xiao Lixiu suddenly looked outside the kitchen, and then lowered her voice and said: "Zhaoxia, don't tell Juanjuan about Xiaoyang's manuscript fee. This girl of hers has no clue. If she knew about it, she would definitely go there. Show off to your classmates!”
Zhao Zhaoxia immediately agreed: "I understand, Mom, I won't tell her, so don't worry."
When Zhao Caixia heard what her sister said, she immediately felt relieved.
Although fifty thousand yuan is not a huge sum of money, her son is still a high school student after all, and she always feels disgraceful when word spreads about making money by writing romance novels.
