From abandoned baby to CEO

Chapter 358: Trapped in a Dilemma

After writing the first three chapters, Sun Xue took the computer to the hospital. On the one hand, he asked Liu Bin to check it, and on the other hand, he also took a look at Boss Liu.

After arriving at the ward, Sun Xue found that the atmosphere in the ward was very strange.

Liu Bin stood in front of the window and stared into the distance in a daze. Boss Liu's face was ashen, and an open box of braised pork on the bedside table remained untouched.

Sun Xue hurriedly pulled Liu Bin outside: "Liu Bin, did you quarrel with your dad again? He didn't eat last night, right?"

Liu Bin's face was filled with grievances: "He was just nitpicking, saying that the rice I bought was too greasy and couldn't be eaten. He even scolded me like a bastard."

Sun Xue couldn't help but laugh: "He has high blood pressure and you buy him braised pork. Aren't you poisoning him?"

"Then don't I just want him to eat better?"

Sun Xue was also a little speechless, and quickly persuaded: "Okay, let's stop talking. You help me read the manuscript, and I will go downstairs to buy breakfast for your dad."

Sun Xue hurried downstairs and bought fruits, porridge, and a large bag of vegetarian steamed buns.

As soon as he entered the door, Sun Xue raised the bag in his hand, tried to make his voice as long as possible, and said with a smile: "Boss Liu, are you hungry? Get up and eat!"

Boss Liu's gloomy face immediately cleared up and he smacked his lips: "I'm really a little hungry."

Boss Liu quickly destroyed a bowl of porridge and a bag of steamed buns like a storm. Patting his belly, he sighed with satisfaction: "Sun Xue still knows how to take care of people."

After saying that, he raised the corners of his mouth and glanced at Liu Bin, who was looking at the computer.

Sun Xue joked: "Why don't you let Liu Bin take care of the Internet cafe, and I will take care of you in the hospital."

"Good good!"

Before Liu Bin could answer, Boss Liu blurted out immediately.

Sun Xue suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She originally said it as a joke, but she didn't expect Boss Liu to take it seriously.

Boss Liu immediately added: "Liu Bin, it's settled, you go to the Internet cafe and let Sun Xue stay."

Liu Bin didn't look back and replied coldly: "That's okay, you are upset when you look at me anyway."

Seeing that the conversation between the two was getting heated, Sun Xue quickly changed the subject: "Liu Bin, have you finished reading the novel? How was it written?"

"I finished reading it right away. It's well written, very good."

Liu Bin and Sun Xue briefly communicated about the novel for a while and left with angry faces.

As soon as Liu Bin left, Boss Liu began to complain about Liu Bin in front of Sun Xue.

His words were full of dissatisfaction with Liu Bin, and the reasons were various, including being naive, unable to endure hardships, timid and fearful, having a bad temper, and not knowing how to take care of others.

As he spoke, he began to blame himself again: "Hey! It's all my fault that I was too spoiled to him when I was a child, and I couldn't bear to let him suffer a little bit. If he was half as good as you, I would be relieved."

Boss Liu's expression was mixed with an eagerness to see his son succeed and a sense of loss.

"Boss Liu, everyone's personality and experience are different. Liu Bin will mature slowly, so don't be too impatient."

"Can I not be anxious? I'm so old, I don't have the courage to do things. I want to hold my grandson, but I can't. I'm so angry!"

Sun Xue quickly changed the topic: "Let me wash some grapes for you. I heard from the doctor that eating grapes can lower blood pressure."

Sun Xue quickly found an excuse to leave. She was most afraid that Boss Liu would bring up this topic.

She knew Boss Liu's good intentions, and she was very grateful to Boss Liu. Sun Xue felt clear about this.

However, gratitude is gratitude and cannot be confused with emotional matters.

……

While taking care of Boss Liu in the hospital, Sun Xue felt very stressed. Boss Liu was in a good mood and wanted to chat with her at every turn, so she could only accompany him.

But she was in a hurry. She not only wanted to complete the serialization of the previous novel, but she also wanted to conceive of a new novel.

As soon as an idea came to his mind, he was interrupted by Boss Liu's words. She could only stay up late at night when Boss Liu was asleep.

However, the problem came again.

As soon as Boss Liu fell asleep, the rhythmic snoring was deafening. Sun Xue scratched his head and ears anxiously, but couldn't think of any solution.

Later, I had no choice but to think of a way. I rolled a paper towel into a small roll as thick as a chopstick and stuffed it into my ear, which relieved it a little.

One morning at three o'clock in the morning, Sun Xue was lying on an empty bed next to her, typing words. Boss Liu was woken up by a splash of urine. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly said: "Sun Xue, why aren't you asleep yet? What's that thing on your ears?"

The attentive Sun Xue was frightened by Boss Liu's words and trembled. He immediately came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Boss Liu, your snoring is a bit loud, so..."

Boss Liu chuckled: "I'll make you suffer!"

Then he said with a distressed look on his face: "Stop working so hard, just take it easy!"

……

Sun Xue overcame many difficulties and completed the preparatory work before the start of the competition as she wished, and decisively submitted her new novel as an entry.

After the novel was uploaded, Sun Xue updated it step by step every day. Half a month has passed, but the novel has not attracted a large number of readers as Sun Xue originally thought.

Although the number of fans continues to increase every day, it is far from her expectations.

She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart.

Sun Xue confided her inner troubles to Liu Bin, and Liu Bin comforted Sun Xue: "I think your writing is quite good. Maybe there are few such subjects and many people haven't discovered it yet! Don't be too impatient. Stay calm and don't panic."

Sun Xue takes time to look at the list every day. The more he looks at the list, the heavier he feels.

Her book didn't even make it into the top ten. Among the top twenty, her book ranked nineteenth.

Looking at the top five books on the list, except one is a new book, the others are all previously serialized works.

Those collaborators have always firmly occupied the top three positions on the list, and their position is unshakable.

As her creation progressed, she felt helpless that her talents were exhausted.

To make the story well-structured and without flaws, it involves a lot of professional knowledge and a lot of information needs to be consulted.

This would take a lot of time. The search engines at that time were not yet mature, so she had no choice but to buy professional books and read them while writing.

Sun Xue thought of Liu Bin at this moment. If Liu Bin was here, he could help her, which would at least save more time.

It's a pity that Liu Bin was dragged to the construction site by Boss Liu and learned business from him in a decent manner.

Staring at the screen for a long time and flipping through a large amount of information soon caused Sun Xue's vision problems.

Sometimes my eyes feel astringent and dry when I look at them, and the words on the computer become blurry.

Later, she was forced to wear glasses for herself, which alleviated her eye problems.

Time flies so fast, two months have passed since the competition, and Sun Xue is no longer in the mood to pay attention to the list.

Her mood was completely cold, and her book didn't even make it into the top ten.

That day she lay in bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. It seemed that she really had no chance of winning the grand prize.

She recalled what Liu Bin said to her. There were few novels on this subject, and many readers simply didn't understand it.

So how can you let more people see your novels?

After thinking about it, Sun Xue felt that since readers didn't know, why didn't he take the initiative to introduce it to readers.

She suddenly thought of a forum that she had not been to for a long time. Why not try to actively promote her works on the forum.
