"What’s got them so excited over a book? Haven’t they seen one before?"
Zuzi watched the group of noble ladies with confusion as they gathered around the book Gu Shiyin brought, their eyes gleaming like hungry wolves.
Xi Rubao chuckled, "Sis, it’s not about the book itself, it’s the signature they love. That’s a limited edition, a rare resource, so having it is a status symbol. Upper society loves this kind of thing. But I can’t stand that green tea bitch Shen Ying, no matter how rare her signature is, I don’t care for it!"
Zuzi nodded thoughtfully, "Well, our Xiao Sha’s signature will be more valuable in the future."
She recalled the snow wolf brush she found in the treasure chest last night, and instructed Little Crow to deliver it to Gu Qiusha in Qingcheng.
"Ancestor, I’ll be back soon. If you need anything here, just call me!"
"Ha, Brother Jin, don’t worry, the Ancestor still has me here waiting for instructions. I can handle it with a single qin!"
Little Crow turned back to glance at Fu Xiqin, who was making a confident guarantee, but still felt a bit uneasy. With so many people and voices at tonight’s banquet, who knows if this chatterbox can be trusted.
It flapped its wings and sped away.
Zuzi activated the Blinding Immortal Technique on her end. In the eyes of ordinary people, her actions were completely undetectable, making it appear as if Xi Rubao was sitting alone at the bar drinking and talking to herself like a little fool.
Of course, there was also a mini Fu Xiqin at the bar, foolishly rolling around as well.
Not far away, Gu Pinting unintentionally glanced over and snorted, "Aunt, look, the girl from the small town is here again. I wonder whose card she used to sneak in, how pathetic! Tsk tsk, why did only one come? Where’s the other one, Zuzi?"
Gu Shiyin heard and also looked over, seeing Xi Rubao talking to herself foolishly, her eyes flashed with disdain.
She wondered if Zuzi wasn’t here because she was with Bao Gucheng again, which made her feel a little annoyed.
Thankfully, her career did not let her down.
Ma Qie’s message arrived: "Shen Ying, the special pop-up recommendation arranged just for you, did it just go live? Tonight you should gain tens of thousands of followers!"
Pop-up recommendations are reserved for platinum masters and super performance authors, generally hard to arrange, you could say it’s a special privilege.
Gu Shiyin felt a bit better, but Ma Qie’s last remark still irked her.
Only tens of thousands of new followers?
With her influence, it should be a million overnight.
"By the way, someone is plagiarizing my book. Evidence is all over the color palette. Mr. Ma, aren’t you going to address this?"
"Cough cough, is that so? I’ll take a look later!" Ma Qie feigned ignorance. Thıs content belongs to 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
"Do you still need to look? It’s been on Weibo all day, you can’t say you haven’t seen it, can you?"
"Cough cough, it’s because the other party hasn’t responded yet. Don’t we need statements from both sides to file a lawsuit?" Ma Qie could no longer pretend, so he had to speak the truth and then change the subject, "How about you check if the pop-up results meet your satisfaction?"
Gu Shiyin sneered and didn’t reply.
A few minutes later, a message from the editor-in-chief also came: "Shen Ying, your fans did great; the Weibo issue has gone viral now, rest assured it will be resolved!"
"Thank you for the concern, Editor-in-Chief."
"Shen Ying, after some deep thought, I’ve realized that Weibo has more passersby, but Penguin here are your true readers. Qianshan is up for an update tonight, and most of her 90 million followers probably don’t know there’s an issue with her book. I can’t officially represent the site to address this matter. Can you spread a word in the reader community? Use this opportunity during her updates tonight to amplify the impact?"
The editor-in-chief, frustrated with Ma Qie’s inaction, proactively suggested to Shen Ying.
Gu Shiyin maintained her aloof stance, "I feel disillusioned and don’t want to meddle."
Editor-in-Chief: "..." Sigh, Shen Ying really deserves better!
