Senior Sister, Shut Up!

It was now three-thirty in the afternoon.

An hour and a half had passed since his new novel was featured on the recommendation list.

Looking at the author’s dashboard, Jiang Miao vaguely remembered that the total number of reading lists before two o’clock was around 1,550, but it was already 1,600.

Very good!

Because it was only a recommendation spot on the desktop version, the traffic was never going to be high to begin with.

Therefore, after being featured on the recommendation list, being added to three to five hundred reading lists in a day would already put it among the best.

Calculating it this way, a week of being recommended could result in an increase of two to three thousand new adds.

Compared to other books that struggled to gain a thousand in a week, this number was already quite impressive.

There was a good chance of advancing to the next level of recommendations.

If it was just a brief flash in the pain, his novel would soon be overshadowed by others, and there would be no chance to turn things around.

Therefore, at the end of the day, it was still necessary to ensure the quality of the novel going forward.

After all, the number of reading lists was only an illusion. The moment the novel required payment, the readers who were willing to pay would be the true readers.

While Jiang Miao was thinking about this, his phone vibrated.

[Ten Thousand Words a Day Writing Group]

[I Am the Immortal Emperor]: Peach, you’re awesome! Getting a trial recommendation with just thirty-five thousand words makes me drool with envy!

[Cat in the Snow]: Peach has taken off. Immortal, where’s your new book?

[I Am the Immortal Emperor]: That bastard Kaishan rejected my manuscript again! (crying)

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

[Cat in the Snow]: That was your last editor, right? Congratulations, you have achieved the grand slam of getting rejected by all the Xidian editors.

[I Am the Immortal Emperor]: Fuck you! (I’m out here.jpg)

This was a chat group for struggling authors to huddle together for support and chat about writing. There were only eight members, and almost all of them were struggling.

[Peach Jam]: Already 1,600 on reading lists (screenshot)

[I Am the Immortal Emperor]: (I’m not jealous at all.jpg)

[White Rice Vinegar]: Peach, that’s a great start. Your novel has potential to be a hit.

[Peach Jam]: Don’t jinx me, I beg you!

White Rice Vinegar was the only accomplished author in the group, who had reached an average of 3,000 subscriptions. He was currently writing a Marvel fanfiction on Xidian.

He could be said to be the highest-level big shot in the group.

Jiang Miao believed what White Rice Vinegar said. Seeing the words ‘potential hit’, he seemed to be able to hear his heart beating.

However, he didn’t have time to chat with the group now. After a few messages, he slipped away because Senior Sister had already finished going to the restroom and returned.

Jiang Miao quickly closed the browser without leaving any traces.

“You didn’t use my laptop for anything bad, did you?” Su Huaizhou walked in while shaking the water droplets off her hands and teased with a smile.

“No…” Jiang Miao coughed. “I just logged into the school’s network to check something.”

“You’re not lying, are you?” Su Huaizhou glanced at him with a smile. She walked to the desk, leaned over, and reached for a napkin by the window. “I’ll have to check it later.”

“… Feel free, Senior Sister.” Jiang Miao, who had used an incognito window, wasn’t worried at all. He looked at Senior Sister leaning over to get a napkin, and her black, short-sleeve T-shirt tightened over her extended arm. The black mountains seemed to break through the hazy clouds and became clearly visible.

But just as he was in a daze, a black mountain accidentally bumped into the cocoa on the table. His reflexes failed him, and he missed catching it. The liquid spilled onto his thigh.

Clatter, splash!

The empty cocoa cup fell to the floor and rolled under the desk.

Only then did Su Huaizhou realize what had happened. She quickly took out a few more napkins, squatted down, and helped wipe the spill on Jiang Miao. “Sorry! I didn’t notice…”

“It’s fine, Senior Sister. I’ll do it myself…”

The cocoa cup had been almost empty, so only a small amount spilled, and it only splashed on his pants. It didn’t affect him much.

However, when Senior Sister squatted down, the neckline of her black T-shirt dipped momentarily. The sunlight seemed to carve through the sky, revealing the snow mounds hidden under the night sky.

And even though Senior Sister’s fair and slender hand was wiping his pants through the napkins, it could still make imaginations run wild.

Jiang Miao’s expression changed slightly, and he tried to shift his hips backward, feeling an impending awkward situation.

Senior Sister! Please stop!

His mind raced as he hurriedly bent over to take the napkins from Senior Sister’s hand, intending to wipe himself. He also wanted her to get up quickly so that she wouldn’t notice his awkward state.

But at this critical moment, the office door swung open.

“Zhouzhou, the documents I asked you to photocopy…” Qi Lianyue walked in with a file rack and looked into the office.

Before she could finish speaking, her pupils dilated as she witnessed an unforgettable scene.

A senior sister squatting in front of a junior brother, bending over with her lowered and her arm moving.

A junior brother sitting in front of a senior sister, bending over with his head lowered and his arm moving.

!!!

Qi Lianyue’s face was full of disbelief as she recalled what she had said in the dorm room last night: “Quickly find a boyfriend to solve it.”

I did say that, but Zhouzhou, aren’t you moving too fast?!

Bang!

Qi Lianyue was shocked beyond words, and the file rack in her arms fell to the floor with a thud, immediately attracting the attention of the two.

Senior Sister turned her head, and Junior Brother looked up. Their gazes immediately fell on Qi Lianyue.

“Huh? You’re back, Yueyue?” Su Huaizhou handed the napkins to Jiang Miao and stood up with a smile. “Why can’t you hold anything properly?”

Qi Lianyue’s gaze was as sharp as lightning. She raised her glasses slightly and instantly noticed the napkins in Jiang Miao’s hand and the suspicious water stain on his thigh.

But she didn’t expect that these two people would be so calm and composed in front of her. They were not embarrassed to be caught in the act at all!

I didn’t expect you to be such a person, Zhouzhou! Qi Lianyue looked at the smiling Su Huaizhou with her mouth slightly agape, feeling that her worldview might need to be reconstructed.

“Ahem… Senior Sister.” Jiang Miao subtly adjusted his pants and stood up. “My roommates are still waiting for me. I’ll go back to the dorm first.”

Despite Jiang Miao’s subtle movements, Qi Lianyue, who had been watching him closely, still noticed his actions and became even more certain of her guess.

“Got it. Go ahead.” With Qi Lianyue here, Su Huaizhou decided not to continue discussing novels with Jiang Miao and let him off the hook for now. “I’m usually here when I don’t have class. Remember to drop by often.”

“Okay. Goodbye, Senior Sister Su, Senior Sister Qi.” Jiang Miao bid farewell and left the office.

Only Su Huaizhou and Qi Lianyue remained inside.

Qi Lianyue looked at Su Huaizhou with a complicated expression. She silently squatted down and picked up the file rack. When she got up, she reminded gently, “Zhouzhou, you have to pay attention to your image… This is an office after all…”

Su Huaizhou completely missed her roommate’s implication. With a smile, she went over to Qi Lianyue and hugged her. “It’s just a senior sister taking care of a junior brother. Next time he comes, I’ll just get him to help out as a laborer~”

Qi Lianyue wasn’t comforted at all. She opened his mouth to say something but held it back.

Forget it. It’s already happened. Zhouzhou can do whatever she likes.

Except for being a bit younger, Jiang Miao doesn’t seem bad.

But… it’s only been two days… Qi Lianyue sat back in her chair, her eyes slightly dazed, as though it were her first foray into the world of adults.
