In the end, after the class was over, Xiao San didn't even remember what was covered in today's class.

"Qiuyue-kun, are you alright?"

When heading to the club, the girl next to her asked in a worried voice.

"what?"

"I always feel that you, Qiuyue-kun, looked a little absent-minded during class today. Did something happen?"

Glancing at Yan Ye beside him, he stretched out his hand to touch his cheek, but Xiao San didn't notice that the other party had been paying attention to his affairs, nor did he notice that he was in a daze, it was so obvious.

"Is it obvious?"

"Because Qiuyue-jun usually wears a faint smile, but today, he is frowning all the time, as if he is very conflicted."

Yan Ye responded softly, Xiaosan couldn't help but feel a burst of embarrassment in his heart, and couldn't help laughing softly.

"It's just thinking about things about the future, not something worth caring about."

"future?"

After hearing Xiaosan's words, Yan Ye was a little surprised. He glanced at Xiaosan, who was the same age in front of him, and didn't know what the other party was referring to in the future.

"It's just future work. If you don't think about it now, when the time comes, you probably won't have time to think about it."

As he said that, Xiaosan slowly took his own steps, and walked quickly towards the location of the calligraphy club.

Looking at Xiao San's advancing back, Yan Ye was a little silent, and an indescribable loss rose in his heart.

The closer she got, the more she felt that she had never really understood the other party.

An invisible gully was always between the two of them. When she crossed that gully, she found that there was a deeper and wider gully in front of it, blocking her progress.

Holding her hands tightly, the girl quietly cheered herself up from the bottom of her heart, and then slightly accelerated her pace, rushing towards Xiaosan in front.

Under the sunlight, the two figures are infinitely elongated and intertwined...

Excessive force yesterday, today off the fire...

Chapter 190. Contact after a long time

"Do you want to open the second book directly? I'm sorry, Teacher Jeanne, I'm afraid I can't do this."

Kagurazaka Iris' slightly embarrassed response came over the phone, and Xiaosan, who was sitting in the room, felt disappointed for a while. Although he didn't think he would definitely succeed, at least there was still a sliver of hope left.

Now being rejected so bluntly, Xiaosan still couldn't help feeling deeply disappointed.

"Can you tell me why?"

Kagurazaka Iris, who had already returned to his home after get off work and was about to go to the bathroom to take a good bath and take a rest, also felt awkward for Xiaosan's request.

Kagurazaka Iris has always felt awkward in the face of most of the authors who need to drag their manuscripts. I always feel that if these people can be more diligent, as an editor, I will be much more relaxed.

But when meeting an author who is too hardworking, Kagurazaka Iris at this moment especially hopes that the other party can take a break for a while.

It was said before that the second volume would be released. In terms of time arrangement, Kagurazaka Iris delayed the other party's publication time, and it didn't take long.

Now, the other party actually wants to say that they are going to release the second work, and Kagurazaka Iris can't help but feel dizzy.

"Mr. Jeanne, last time you said you were going to publish the second volume, I already told you that the publishing house is already very tight in terms of time schedule, right?"

"There is such a thing."

Xiaosan also remembered, after all, it was one of the factors that prevented him from publishing, so how could Xiaosan not remember these things.

"So you should be clear that it takes a lot of energy to publish a book. If I don't have enough energy, it is impossible for me to publish a second book for you, teacher."

"That is to say, your company does not have this ability?"

With deep doubts, Kagurazaka Iris was a little speechless, and he didn't know why the other party had such thoughts. His originally helpless expression became serious, and his brows frowned slightly.

"Of course not, there is ability, but please understand, Mr. Jeanne, even if there are people who release two works at the same time, they are also authors at the top of the industry. Even if they release two works, they cannot guarantee the quality of the work. And Mr. Jeanne, to put it bluntly, you are just a newcomer in the industry, and you are not qualified to be compared with those top writers. Maybe you can in the future, but now... "

"I understand."

Accepting Kagurazaka Iris's answer in a quite calm tone, Xiaosan sat silently in his room, feeling angry but exceptionally calm.

"The teacher's works are actually quite good. After two months, after the current number of publications has been digested by the market, the second volume will be released. For the teacher, it is also the best choice. I believe that Teacher Jeanne can still surpass those Compared with most of the current top authors, Mr. Jeanne, you still have considerable potential."

After using stern words and warning in secret, Kagurazaka Iris still used a gentle tone to encourage the teacher Joan of Arc left behind.

From the perspective of a veteran editor in the editorial department, this newcomer author may have been overwhelmed by the current sales volume and needs to calm down.

"Then, if I change my pseudonym, it doesn't matter if I publish my other works in other publishing houses?"

"..."

Sitting in the living room, Kagurazaka Iris, wrapped in a yukata, didn't know what to say. In front of her editor, talking about going to another publishing house, is it really okay?

With a helpless sigh, Kagurazaka Iris always felt that the other party did not understand the meaning of what he said just now, or that she would not be angry.

"Teacher Jeanne?"

"Ah."

"Don't you know the unspoken rules in the industry?"
