Jingchai was referring to the novel about "father-killing" that Jiang Baige wrote for Bai Yang.

Because this novel was originally published on a small account, Jiang Baige shared it with Jingchai in order to get close to her at the villa.

But Jiang Baige did not deliberately mention it to Lin Xingran.

“You know, I always had a victim mentality at that time, but I was fighting against it.”

Jingchai smiled bitterly.

"Of course I was hurt, but if I had stayed in that pain, I would never have gotten back on my feet."

“So, you found resonance in this novel?”

"Yes." Jingchai nodded. "The daughter is in a passive state in the family relationship, both mentally and economically. But in your novel, she takes the place of the mother, fights against the father, and finally takes control of the family by killing the father."

This power structure and story direction more often occur between father and son: the son kills the father, "inherits" the mother, and ultimately takes over the family.

But in Jiang Baige's story, it was the daughter who appeared as the savior. Although her starting point was her mother, in the end she did not only save her mother, but also completed the mutual redemption of herself and her mother.

Here, Jiang Baige carried out a "moral transformation" on the prototype of her mother, the image of her own aunt.

Initially, the mother was portrayed as a submissive victim, but because her daughter started to seek revenge on her own and her actions were full of loopholes, which might lead to her daughter being arrested and imprisoned, the mother stepped forward and "resolved" the crisis with the wisdom of an adult.

Together they killed the man who had brought them into misfortune.

In this process, she unconsciously completed her own "moral evolution": from a defender of the oppressed old order to a rebel and creator of a new order.

"Your novel has touched me deeply."

Jingchai spoke sincerely, and at this time Lin Xingran had already opened the page of the novel.

"If my Lilith is still questioning why she is being treated so unfairly and is determined to expose this side. Then... in the new novel, I hope she will directly shatter all of this."

"Lilith's revenge?" Jiang Baige asked with a smile.

Jingchai also smiled: "Yes. But the perspective must be clear, otherwise the heroine may still become an object. Sometimes, in order to make revenge reasonable, we will spend a lot of time and effort on the villain, but the result is that the villain is full of flesh, and the protagonist's various behaviors seem to be untenable."

"aweason!"

Lin Xingran wanted to stand up and applaud, but as they were still in a public place, she just clapped her hands lightly.

“Do I really have a chance to finish this novel with you?”

"Actually, before coming to the book fair, Bai Ge told me that you were very interested in my novel, so I went to look for your new book. I think we have something in common."

Jingchai took out the book edited by Lin Xingran from her bag and said, "And I think the public account you created is also great."

"Yes, speaking of this..." Jiang Baige slapped his forehead, "Senior Jing, if you agree, we would like to share your new book with you."

Lin Xingran also nodded beside him.

Jingchai pointed at herself, feeling a little shy: "Me? Really? I think I..."

"You don't deserve it." Jiang Baige continued, "Didn't you just say that we can't give up our status as a subject? Why are you being modest now? In addition to your book, we will also introduce the book newly edited by Xing Ran... This is our private land, we have complete autonomy, and we can recommend anything we want."

Lin Xingran also said: "Yes, before the book fair, I met the person in charge of the publishing house here... It made me feel that the breadth and depth of our thinking and discussion about women are far behind."

This was said in a very obscure way, but Jiang Baige and Jing Chai both understood it.

As girls, their ultimate goal in life is to get married, return to their families, give birth to sons, and inherit the "throne" that absolutely does not exist.

As for studying and working, they are just some icing on the cake.

Because if we really want them to realize their self-worth, we would not only encourage them to study and work, but also not encourage them to get a doctorate or several degrees and become leaders in their industry...

But these traps are so hidden, and the big net to capture them and transport them back to their families has been woven since they were born, making it difficult for them to escape even if they try their best.

"If possible..." Lin Xingran sighed, "I really want to put down my work and take some short-term courses here to enrich my knowledge."

The three of them sitting here was already a form of escape.

But they are only a very small minority.

Putting all this into a global context, we still have a gap with the advanced parts of other countries and cultures.

But Lin Xingran suddenly smiled: "But I remembered something, I don't know if it can be considered as self-deception."

"What?" Jiang Baige asked.

"At least... women hold up half the sky. Is that ours?" She shrugged. "Every time I talk to these foreign women, they always mention this. On the one hand, I secretly feel lucky that we have something, but on the other hand, I hope to create something new."

After saying that, she looked at Jiang Baige and said, "I will go back and finish reading your novel."

Lin Xingran does what he says.

Jiang Baige's plane had just landed at Lincheng Airport. When she turned on her phone, she received a message from Lin Xingran - completely ignoring the fact that she might be on the plane, she excitedly expressed her excitement: [I want to publish your novel! ]

Seeing this line of words, Jiang Baige was naturally very happy.

But she was a little calmer than Lin Xingran—but not much calmer. Before she even reached the luggage check-in area, she had already hurriedly replied, "Let's talk about it when we meet."

This novel is not long. If it were to be edited before publication, it would probably be less than 200,000 words. Compared to online novels that can easily be millions of words, this is a more suitable length for publication.

The problem is that books are also commodities, and commodities are businesses, so the input-output ratio must be considered.

She was an unknown online writer, and the data of this novel was not very impressive, so it was not easy for her to get published.

After listening to Jiang Baige's analysis, Lin Xingran's expression was a little complicated: there was understanding, but also some reluctance, but also a little bit of aroused competitive spirit.

"I'm not strong enough. If I were strong enough, I wouldn't care how good your data is. I could sign you if I wanted to."

Jiang Baige felt very relieved to hear this.

"If I had enough money, many things would be easy to solve!"

money?

Jiang Baige suddenly remembered something, quickly opened the search engine, and entered four words: Anjing house prices.
