Tao Ge walked in the lead: "So I hope the data will remain the same tomorrow, and I will keep it no matter what."

Zhang Xuan gave her a vaccination: "This kind of data is the result of long-term publicity and accumulation.

There may not be tomorrow, so be mentally prepared. "

Tao Ge said: "I know, but as long as the gap behind is not too big, I can accept it."

After saying that, Tao Ge turned around and joked: "If I sell 5 million copies this month, I will sleep with you."

Zhang Xuan has almost figured her out now. She is the one who likes to play and talk duplicity.

He immediately said: "Okay, just sleep, I won't lose anything."

Tao Ge probed his head and asked, "How are your skills?"

Zhang Xuan said seriously: "I don't think you can last five minutes."

Tao Ge's eyes scanned him and landed on a certain place: "So powerful? Sister, you don't believe it at all?"

Zhang Xuan said: "Lilith didn't believe it at first."

Tao Ge endured it and smiled crookedly in an instant.

Send the letter and the two discs as a parcel.

Zhang Xuan was going to call Wen Hui's home.

But just after the number was called, the old man stopped again. He had promised Mi Jian that he would make the first call to her, so he couldn't break his promise.

With this in mind, he said to Tao Ge: "Go to the bookstore with me to buy some books."

Tao Ge asked: "What book?"

Zhang Xuan replied: "Clockwork girl?"

Tao Ge thoughtfully said: "Send it to China?"

Zhang Xuan replied: "Yes."

Tao Ge said, "There's no need to buy it. I'll ask Nancy to send some samples tomorrow."

Zhang Xuan refused: "It's better to buy it, it represents my feelings."

Tao Ge uttered one word: "Pretentious."

I found a nearby bookstore and looked at the overcrowded store. The old man, who had experience at the Good Man restaurant, did not dare to approach.

Zhang Xuan said: "I'll wait for you at this intersection."

"How much do you want to buy?" Tao Ge asked.

Zhang Xuan replied: "Four copies."

"Yeah." Tao Ge crossed the street and walked into the bookstore.

20 minutes later, Tao Ge came out.

As soon as they met, he complained happily: "There are too many people in there, and they are all there for the clockwork girl. You have to queue up to buy books."

Zhang Xuan took another look inside the store and said happily: "I don't know if I didn't come to the bookstore to read it. After reading it, I'm looking forward to tomorrow's data."

Tao Ge nodded and said with a smile: "Sister, too, I'm not so nervous anymore. This trip was worth it."

Just when the two were talking and laughing and turned around to leave, they were suddenly blocked by someone.

To be precise, he was blocked by two reporters.

A female reporter and a photographer were interviewing on the street.

Seeing Tao Singer holding four copies of "Clockwork Girl", the female reporter immediately stopped the two and asked, "Are you international students?"

Seeing that it was a reporter, Tao Ge immediately took the initiative to talk.

Zhang Xuan subconsciously took a step back and hid.

Tao Ge said: "It used to be, I have graduated."

The female reporter asked: "Which university?"

Tao Ge replied: "Cambridge."

"Cambridge!" the female reporter exclaimed: "Are you Chinese? Or Japanese?"

Tao Ge replied: "Chinese."

The female reporter asked: "Can you tell me why you bought "Clockwork Girl"?"

Tao Ge said wisely: "I read the Times. The newspaper said that wise people should read "The Wind-Up Girl".

I thought I was pretty smart, so I wanted to give it a try. "

The female reporter asked: "San Yue is from China. His books have sold like crazy in the UK, Europe and the world. How do you feel?"

Tao Ge said proudly: "As a compatriot, I am proud of him!"

The female reporter asked: "Is San Yue very famous in China?"

Tao Ge replied: "Very famous, well-known to every household."

The female reporter then asked: "Have you seen his photo? Has his photo been published in the newspaper?"

Tao Ge smiled: "Yes."

The female reporter asked excitedly: "San Yue is very famous in Europe now. She is the dream lover of many British girls. JK Rowling has expressed her love to her many times through the air. So can you tell me, is San Yue handsome in person?"

Tao Ge smiled even more: "I have not only seen him in the newspaper, but I was also lucky enough to meet him once at the airport. I can tell you responsibly that he is very elegant and handsome."

"Wow!"

The female reporter screamed and faced the camera and said: "Dear friends, today Ellen and I ran around in front of major bookstores in London and have interviewed 47 readers of "Clockwork Girl" on the streets.

Now I am fortunate enough to meet a Chinese reader who has met San Yue in person. She told everyone that San Yue is very handsome and everyone loves her. "

Then the reporter put the microphone to Tao Ge's mouth: "Dear Chinese friends, please tell everyone the truth again?"

Tao Ge spoke elegantly: "March is very handsome."

After a while of fuming, the interview finally ended.

The female reporter originally wanted to ask Zhang Xuan, but Tao Ge stopped him and said, "This is my brother. It's his first time in the UK and he hasn't passed the English test yet."

The female reporter immediately expressed regret, saying that it was a pity that such a handsome face could not speak English.

After the interview, Zhang Xuan and Tao Ge looked at each other and quickly left.

The female reporter didn't stop her, she straightened up her appearance and prepared to intercept the next reader coming out of the bookstore.

But at this moment, photographer Allen suddenly had a clear mind and shouted excitedly to the female reporter:

"Daisy, that young man just now is San Yue."

Daisy turned around: "What?"

Allen didn't have time to talk anymore and explained anxiously: "That young man is San Yue. I just realized that his profile is exactly the same as the photo in The Times!"

Daisy's eyes widened: "Are you sure???"

Allen shouted: "Confirmed! Please don't doubt my sensitivity and professionalism as a photographer!"

Hearing what her old partner said, Daisy immediately turned around and glanced at the two figures still in sight.

Call out: "Chase!"

As soon as the word "chase" came out, Daisy ran out like the wind.

"Chase!" Allen roared and ran with the camera on his shoulder.

The strangeness of these two people instantly attracted the attention of passers-by, and everyone moved away to look at the two people.

Feeling that something was wrong behind him, Zhang Xuan glanced back subconsciously, his pupils tightened in the next second, and he grabbed Tao Ge's right hand: "Run!"

"Why are you running?" Tao Ge looked confused.

"They are coming!" Zhang Xuan pulled her and continued running.

Hearing this, Tao Ge looked back at the female reporter 10 meters away. She fainted and ran away quickly.

In an instant, a chaotic scene appeared on the streets of London. Two people were running in front and two people were chasing behind.

"Stop, don't run!"

Seeing that the cooked duck was about to fly away, Daisy became anxious.

Only then did the fool stop. Such thoughts flashed through Zhang Xuan and Tao Ge's minds at the same time.

After chasing for half a street, seeing that the distance was extended to 15 meters, Daisy gritted her teeth, took off her high heels, and chased with bare feet. While chasing, she shouted to the passers-by in front of her:

"Help me stop him, that's Rowling's mentor March, the great writer March, help me stop him!"

This crazy woman!

Use all your damaging moves!

Fortunately, I still have professional ethics and have not given myself some bad reputation.

Otherwise it will be uncomfortable.

Daisy's crazy yelling caused many people on the roadside to watch.

At first, everyone was just curious and just watching the show, no one paid any attention to her.

But when a group of girls reacted and started chasing, everyone slowly joined in the fun. Isn't March the object of their admiration for their hero Rowling?

Nothing to say, chase!

Whether you are curious, unhappy, or enthusiastic, chase!

Chase first and then talk!

"What the hell!..." Zhang Xuan was stunned when he saw a group of people chasing after him!

OK?

I just went shopping, what else is wrong?

The two continued to run, but when they ran about 50 meters, Tao Ge, who was running too fast, suddenly staggered and almost fell.

Zhang Xuan, who was in front, quickly turned around, supported her and asked with concern: "You sprained your foot? How do you feel?"

Tao Ge automatically turned his right foot, "It's twisted a little, but it's nothing serious. Leave me alone and go first."

The female reporter in Zhang Xuan's eyes was getting closer and closer, and she was in front of her in the blink of an eye. He sighed: "I can't leave."

"Wow!"

The female reporter grabbed Zhang Xuan and asked excitedly: "You are March, right?"

Zhang Xuan pretended to be confused and said he didn't understand.

But it didn't matter. Before the female reporter could ask another question, a group of girls ran over and surrounded Zhang Xuan, and then they couldn't help but say...

Then everyone at the scene was stunned!

People in half the street were excited.

I saw this group of girls surrounding Zhang Xuan and started hugging and kissing him excitedly.

Suddenly, the left cheek was kissed.

Another kiss on the right cheek.

Well, the next moment, both sides of the face were kissed at the same time.

Following suit, those brave women joined the ranks.

Damn, who touched my ass?

Woo! This female reporter is indeed a lunatic. Kiss me on the mouth!

Zhang Xuan was speechless. How had he ever seen such a battle in his two lifetimes?

Damn it, you still have to pay for prostitution.

This, you didn’t pay for this!

Damn it, whose hands are stretched out randomly and why are they touching my breasts?

Ouch! Where are these dirty hands touching...

The old man was about to cry but had no tears at the moment. Fortunately, Tao Ge was squeezed away and did not suffer any disaster.

After a frantic minute, the group of female hooligans finally let him go and looked at him and laughed.

Daisy stretched out the phone and asked: "March, how do British girls feel?"

Zhang Xuan waved his hand and denied it, "I am not March."

But denial is useless, Allen has a trick.

Allen asked a girl to buy a copy of yesterday's Times from the nearby newsstand.

Daisy opened the newspaper and stood next to Zhang Xuan, compared it, and asked everyone at the scene: "Does it look like it?"

"Like! It's him!" A group of girls screamed happily, they all recognized him.

Zhang Xuan: "..."

Never thought this day would come.

Daisy asked: "Welcome to Britain, how do you feel about Britain in March?"

Zhang Xuan was helpless, pointing to his face, "So enthusiastic!"

"Hahaha..." A group of pigs nearby laughed.

Daisy asked: "Did you just go to the bookstore to inquire about the situation?"

Zhang Xuan nodded: "Yes."

Daisy asked: "Are you satisfied with the sales situation in the bookstore?"

Zhang Xuan replied: "Satisfied."

While Zhang Xuan was mediating with reporters, Tao Ge called for a car. While the female reporter was still feeling triumphant, she grabbed Zhang Xuan and got in.

The female reporter wanted to stop her, but unfortunately the three people who got out of the car surrounded her.

The car started to move, and a blond beauty wearing pink glasses turned her head in the co-pilot:

"Hello March, I'm Nancy, nice to meet you."

Nancy?

He heard from Tao Ge that this person was a senior staff member of Penguin Publishing House.

Zhang Xuan stretched out his hand and shook it, "Nice to meet you."

Nancy stared at his face for a while, trying not to laugh, but finally turned around and laughed.

Afraid of being impolite, Nancy covered her mouth with her right hand, trembling slightly, obviously very happy.

Tao Ge meaningfully stretched out his hand to hold his face, counted the numbers, and clicked his tongue:

"It's really good, 21 red lips.

There are 7 on the left side of the face, 10 on the right side, 1 on the mouth, and 3 on the neck. "

Zhang Xuan opened her hand angrily: "You think I want to?"

Tao Ge said with a smile: "You will be famous tomorrow, and this face will definitely be reported."

Zhang Xuan: "..."

He was worried and asked: "Will it affect your publicity plan?"

Tao Ge shook his head: "That won't happen. On the contrary, it will help promote publicity and help sell new books."

Zhang Xuan looked at her.

Tao Ge explained: "This picture of yours will definitely attract crazy coverage from the media. It is more effective than any advertisement. If you don't believe me, just wait and see tonight's news or tomorrow's newspaper report."

At this time, Nancy interjected: "Yes, Miss Tao is right. As long as public opinion is guided well, this will be a hot spot and very helpful for the promotion of the new book."

He was relieved to hear that the publicity plan was not disrupted.

The car drove forward for a while, and when they approached the mailing point, Zhang Xuan and Tao Ge got out of the car.

Nancy, on the other hand, hurried back to Penguin Publishing House. She planned to use this public opinion to do a good job in public relations.

Wiping his face with a tissue, Zhang Xuan asked Tao Ge, "How is it? Is the lipstick clean?"

Tao Ge nodded his neck in the air: "This is where it is."

Zhang Xuan wiped it a few more times, "What now?"

Tao Ge said: "There are still some."

Zhang Xuan wiped it again, "Is there more?"

Tao Ge took out a piece of paper and helped him wipe off the last few scattered spots, "It's almost done, no more."

Throwing the tissue in the trash can, she joked: "How does it feel to be in close contact with so many women at once?"

"Hmm! Are you envious?"

"Sister, I'm not envious."

"Then why are you asking, what's the difference between that situation and eating pork?"

"That female reporter is quite beautiful. It would be a good idea for you to kiss her."

"It's too unrestrained, I can't stand it."

"Does your mouth smell bad?"

"..."

"Sister, I saw a girl who didn't obey the rules."

Zhang Xuan asked seriously: "Is that girl pretty?"

Tao Ge said: "It's pretty average."

Zhang Xuan was depressed: "Then you won't pull her away?"

Tao Ge looked at him strangely: "Shouldn't you be happy?"

Zhang Xuan asked back: "Are you happy if someone treats you like this?

I accidentally hugged you this morning, and you turned your back on me on the spot! "

Tao Ge shook his hair and analyzed with a smile: "I guess it was the photographer who recognized you."

Zhang Xuan thinks it makes sense.

The reason is simple. Only photographers are naturally sensitive to the lines and contours of characters.

The first book was sent to Yonemi.

Zhang Xuan signed the serial number and name on it, and also included a message from his heart.

The next three volumes were given to Du Shuangling, Ai Qing and Du Jinling respectively.

This time I won’t write the serial number, just sign and send a message.

After he finished mailing the book, Tao Ge said meaningfully: "It seems that Mi Jian holds the most important position in your heart."

Zhang Xuan neither admitted nor refuted: "Shuangling is about the same as her."

"Oh, so sentimental."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Where's Lilith?"

"They are all my women, regardless of each other."

"Hey, who believes it?"

Zhang Xuan asked: "I want to go back to write, where are you going?"

Tao Ge said: "The sun is so bright, I'll just go back and take a nap."

Zhang Xuan thought of something and asked, "Is Luo Lin's house far from here?"

Tao Ge looked at him: "What do you want to do?"

Zhang Xuan said truthfully: "She invited me to be a guest."

Tao Ge said with a smile: "The weasel is sending New Year greetings to the rooster, it's not a good intention."

Zhang Xuan said: "I will take you with me when the time comes."

Tao Ge pointed to the east: "It's not too far, it takes about 15 minutes to walk."

Zhang Xuan followed her finger and looked over: "That's a little closer than before."

"really."

Tao Ge responded and said: "Lilith said you want to buy a house. There are many good houses in Luo Lin's area. They are safe and quiet, but they are a bit expensive."

Zhang Xuan said directly: "It's not a problem that it's expensive. It depends on whether Lilith likes it or not."

Tao Ge nodded: "That's right. After all, she is the hidden beauty of the Golden House. She must be satisfied first."

Zhang Xuan: "..."

When we got home, Liao Yun and the others were not back yet.

Tao Ge was disappointed when he didn't get lunch and asked him, "Eating out or eating at home?"

Zhang Xuan was too lazy to start a fight and asked, "How about I feed you some food?"

Tao Ge stretched and said, "I still want to eat eggs."

Zhang Xuan asked: "One? Or two?"

Tao Ge picked up the pillow on the sofa and smashed it over.

Zhang Xuan reached out to grab the pillow and put it aside: "Poached eggs? Or fried eggs?"

Tao Ge said: "The best thing is quail eggs."

"This is not for you to eat."

"Get out of here, sister."

"Hey, okay."

The kitchen does not have domestic ramen, but instant noodles.

Cook the noodles, add 8 small green vegetables, 20 shrimps, and two fried eggs, then divide them into two bowls.

Finally, I fried a plate of peanuts.

Zhang Xuan brought the noodles in front of her: "Try it, how does it taste?"

Tao Ge picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, with a satisfied look on his face, and praised: "Although he is greasy-tongued, his craftsmanship is still reliable."

Zhang Xuan rolled his eyes: "We are half as good as each other, so don't talk about me."

Tao Ge bit the end of his chopsticks and stared at him for a while, then asked: "How is the progress of your new book?"

Zhang Xuan replied: "Fortunately, I have written 330,000 words so far."

Tao Ge asked: "Do you have a name?"

Zhang Xuan told her: "Yes, it's called the human world."

In the human world, Tao Ge tasted it and said, "This is a good name, with an artistic conception."

After speaking, she added: "Last night I received a call from the editor-in-chief of Penguin Publishing House.

The other party directly asked me about your next book. I heard that he was afraid that you would run away, but he still wanted to cooperate with you. "

Zhang Xuan was delighted: "This was not the case in the first half year."

Tao Ge followed suit: "That's right. He's been dragging me along for the past six months, as if he just wanted to ignore me."

Zhang Xuan was curious: "Speaking of this, I have always wanted to ask you. According to your personality, shouldn't you have wronged yourself for so long?"

Tao Ge said frankly: "I don't want to, but there is nothing I can do.

I submitted "Clockwork Girl" to 13 publishing houses, almost all the big and respectable publishing houses in the UK.

But with the exception of Penguin Publishing, all of them rejected it, including well-known publishing houses such as Oxford and Cambridge.

I didn’t want to hand over “The Wind-Up Girl” to a second-rate publishing house and bookseller and have to keep arguing with Penguin Publishing. "

Zhang Xuan was silent for a while and said, "Thank you for your hard work these days."

Tao Ge stretched out his chopsticks and took away the fried eggs in his bowl: "It's really hard work. I need two eggs as a reward."

She deliberately bit the "two eggs" very hard.

Zhang Xuan pretended not to hear, "But having said that, life is getting better now, and time has come."

"Um."

Tao Ge hummed and said, "As long as the back of "Clockwork Girl" doesn't collapse, then you will be a hot potato from now on, a world-class celebrity, wherever you go."

At this point, Tao Ge couldn't help but say: "Sister, I don't envy your wealth, nor your confidante, but I do admire your talent."

Zhang Xuan said: "Just a little bit?"

Tao Ge smiled at him mysteriously, ignored him, and concentrated on eating noodles.

After lunch, Tao Ge went to take a nap.

Zhang Xuan entered the study.

He took out his cell phone and called Mi Mi.

Dial, wait...

Thump…thump…thump…

On the fourth ring, the call went through.

"Zhang Xuan?" Mi Jian's voice.

"Well, it's me." Zhang Xuan replied.

Mi Jian asked: "Is it noon in England now?"

Zhang Xuan replied: "Yes, have you had dinner?"

Mi Jian said: "I just ate. If your call is a little later, I will go for a walk with my parents."

Zhang Xuanming realized: "Uncle and aunt are waiting for you outside?"

Mi Jian said: "Outside in Pingli."

Zhang Xuan made a long story short: "The results of Clockwork Girl's first day are out."
