Love Apartment: The All-Around Comedian

"Don't even mention it. Meijia was only looking at her phone while cooking. She made us a dish of garlic steel wool, green pepper sponge, and grilled eggs."

Guan Gu Shenqi said with a helpless expression.

"puff"

Lin Wanyu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Guan Gu-kun, I didn't mean to."

Chen Meijia said somewhat embarrassedly.

"I know you didn't mean it, you're just brainless."

Lu Ziqiao rolled his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Chen Meijia immediately became annoyed: "You're the one who's brainless! You eat and drink for free all day and still have the nerve to talk back to me. Guan Gu pays for all the food, have you ever contributed a single penny to the meals?"

"I"

Lu Ziqiao was speechless after being rebuked.

"Don't say that, Meijia. It's just a little food money, it's nothing."

Guan Gu Shenqi said cheerfully.

Upon hearing this, Lü Ziqiao gave Chen Meijia a smug look, while the latter rolled her eyes in exasperation.

"Meijia, you're amazing! You've invented three new dishes. Teach me sometime."

Su Mingyang joked.

"It was just an accident. It's all because the novel Wanyu recommended was too good."

Chen Meijia made excuses for herself.

Lin Wanyu was both amused and exasperated.

Su Mingyang smiled slightly. If that's the case, then it's his fault; he wrote the book.

"Let us help."

Chen Meijia said.

"Great! There are some vegetables that haven't been washed yet, let's cook them and eat together."

Lin Wanyu smiled.

"Uh-huh."

Upon hearing this, Chen Meijia, Guan Gu Shenqi, and Lü Ziqiao immediately went to the kitchen to help.

Chen Meijia was washing vegetables when she saw Hu Yifei sprawled on the sofa, engrossed in her phone and oblivious to everything around her. She asked, "Yifei, are you still reading a novel? Where are you?"

"The Seven Meridians Martial Arts Tournament."

Hu Yifei answered casually.

"That's fast!"

Chen Meijia sighed, then turned around and noticed someone was missing. She asked, "By the way, Sister Yifei, isn't Zhanbo home?"

"He's not here; he's working overtime today."

"oh."

With three more people helping, the cooking speed increased significantly, and it was finished in less than an hour.

Celery stir-fried with pork, spicy and sour duck, stir-fried beef tripe, tomato and egg soup, and beer-braised duck—six people sat around six tables, enjoying the meal immensely.

During the meal, Chen Meijia, Lin Wanyu, and Hu Yifei had a great time discussing the plot of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Lu Ziqiao had absolutely no interest in this.

Guan Gu Shenqi, however, was very curious: "Is the novel 'Zhu Xian Sword' that you guys are talking about really good?"

Of course.

The three women said in unison.

"Will I be able to understand it? I wonder if reading it will improve my Chinese?"

Guan Gu asked expectantly.

"Give it a try, Guan Gu."

Su Mingyang said.

"Guan Gu, if you want to watch it, I'll teach you how to watch it online."

Chen Meijia smiled.

"Thanks."

Guan Gu Shenqi was very happy.

And so, yet another person fell into the "Zhu Xian Sword" pit.

Chapter 182 Why Blame Me?

After lunch.

Su Mingyang returned to his room, turned on his computer, and as soon as he logged onto QQ, Little Web Crawler sent him a message.

Little Crawler: Ten Years Dream, your plot arrangement is too good! "Zhu Xian Sword" is now trending on Weibo, number 23! When Su Mingyang saw this news, he was not moved at all.

He doesn't usually look at Weibo at all.

Besides, he's only 23rd, not first, so it's nothing special.

So he simply replied with an "Oh".

The little crawler on the other side looked at this "oh".

He couldn't help but frown.

He originally wanted to use this opportunity to talk more with the author and build a closer relationship between them.

It's worth noting that Qifei Chinese Website has a rule that authors can request a different editor for their next book if they are dissatisfied with the editor.

Of course, this right is only available to top-tier authors.

If a struggling author did that, he'd block them immediately! Ten Years Dream is the only top-tier author under his wing, and this has impacted his current quality of life and social standing, so he certainly can't afford to neglect him.

But at this point, the other party only replied with an "Oh".

字.

He was somewhat at a loss for words.

Judging from the author's apparent attempt to decipher the other person's intentions, they seem to be in a rather low mood.

Why is that? A moment later.

The little crawler figured it out.

It must be because of Biyao! Biyao is a rich and complex character who is loved by many readers.

The author must have poured a lot of effort into the character of Biyao, and now that they've killed her off, how could they possibly be happy? I bet after finishing this chapter...

In an instant, he conjured up a scene in his mind: a handsome man or a girl typing on a computer while tears streamed down their faces.

Contrary to what readers of "One-Punch Man" imagine the author to be a bald, burly man.

The writing style of "Zhu Xian Sword" is as beautiful as a spring, and everyone will imagine the author as a very wonderful person.

Even small crawlers are no exception.

From this, he deduced that Shi Nianmeng must be in a bad mood, and that it was because of Bi Yao.

At that moment, he knew how to respond in a way that would bring them closer.

A smile played on her lips as she typed a few words on the keyboard and clicked send.

"Ten Years Dream, I understand how you feel right now. Your efforts will not be in vain, and I believe the character Biyao will live forever in the hearts of readers."

Su Mingyang was typing when he saw the message about the little crawler and was a little confused.

He was a little confused about his editor's thought process, wondering when he had been sad and how he had come to understand it, and casually replied with an "Mm".

Then, I continued writing.

Upon receiving this reply, the little crawler started to imagine the whole story again. Although Su Mingyang didn't care, the plot of Biyao blocking the sword was being discussed and fermented on Weibo.

This further boosted the popularity of "Zhu Xian Sword".

This led to a surge in subscriptions, reaching an average of 100,000 subscriptions per day, firmly securing its position at the top of the charts.

It can be called the phenomenal online novel of the year.

Readers are eagerly anticipating whether Biyao will be resurrected, and if so, when.

But the result...

This greatly disappointed a large number of Biyao fans.

Even two months later, when "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" ended, the once-popular Bi Yaoyao was still inactive!

They left comments in the comment section, venting their dissatisfaction.
