After all, in Japan, anime and light novels are comparable to pillar industries, and there are naturally countless practitioners.
In a large publishing house like this, there may be several or even dozens of editors for one category.
Therefore, whether or not there is an office and exclusive treatment is the most effective way to distinguish between editors with real power and editors with a nominal position.
Obviously, Machida Sonoko belongs to the former.
In response, Kasumigaoka Utaha pouted her lips proudly: "She should thank me."
What this meant was that Shiyu had brought her enough results.
Xia Chuan raised his hand and pinched her cheek amusedly: "If you put it that way, I also have some credit for it."
Currently, "Love Metronome" created by Shiko Kasumi is in the hot-selling stage.
Of course, this is because with the addition of female supporting characters from the first volume, the plot has changed from pure love to more other stock speculation branches.
This situation of both party struggles and a Shura field is particularly suitable for today's impetuous society under the influence of cursed power.
It can be said that it is a precise prescription for the right disease.
At the same time, coupled with Shiyu's proficient grasp of the characters and plot, the competition between the male and female protagonists of the first volume also allowed them to have many sweet moments.
Naturally, we did not lose too many pure love readers, but gained more readers who were interested in party struggles and stock speculation.
Shi Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and she chuckled, "I really have to thank you for not only giving me advice verbally, but also providing me with inspiration and reference in real life."
"It just so happens that after the second volume is finished, I don't even have to worry about other characters besides Miyuko."
When mentioning Miyuko, Natsukawa couldn't help but laugh.
"Then it seems that my help was indeed significant."
Miyuko, the new female supporting character in Love Metronome, is a tsundere queen with blonde hair.
Needless to say, who this corresponds to in daily life.
Because of this, Miura Yumiko and Kasumigaoka Utaha had many quarrels over this.
Shiyu glanced at Xiachuan. Did she say this because she wanted to hear Xiachuan's answer?
"Come to think of it, my editor is also a great beauty."
"Oh? So that's it."
Xia Chuan jokingly asked, "Is Shiyu planning to add a female supporting role as an editor in the next volume?"
"Pooh!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha was a little annoyed. This guy Natsukawa would sometimes deliberately make people angry. At times like this, the right thing to do was to say something nice to coax her.
"I don't care about anything else, but you must not offend Machida!"
Xiachuan didn't mean that originally, he just took the opportunity to tease Shiyu because she liked metaphors from time to time.
"Don't worry, Shiyu is so beautiful today, how could I be attracted to other women?"
Shiyu naturally enjoyed it and snorted proudly.
"Remember what you said."
Soon, the two arrived at where Editor Machida was.
Open the door.
In the office, Machida Sonoko was already sitting on the sofa drinking tea.
I saw the door being pushed open and two figures walked in.
Machida Sonoko stood up subconsciously and looked at the two of them.
The first sight naturally fell on Shiyu.
This is the "girl" that Machida Sonoko both loves and hates.
Although she was very familiar with Shiyu, her dress and makeup today still made Machida Sonoko look a little surprised.
Although Shiyu was also very beautiful in the past, that was because she had an extremely excellent foundation.
As women, it is easy to tell whether they are wearing makeup or preparing carefully.
So today, Shiyu is fully armed!
This is rare.
Machida Yuanzi believes that Shiyu definitely didn't spend so much effort for herself~
So the answer~
She turned her gaze to the boy next to Shiyu.
He is indeed very handsome, and his outstanding facial features are enough to easily attract girls' attention.
Even someone as mature as Machida Sonoko was a little dazed.
Then she realized something, and realized that this was the handsome junior student named Xiachuan that Shiyu had met at the book signing event? !
Are these two a couple?!
Machida Sonoko was filled with surprise.
But she quickly came to her senses and greeted:
"Shiyu, you're finally here. Luckily you're not too late, otherwise I wouldn't bother to take care of your event."
Machida Sonoko teased Shiyu openly, and the relationship between the two women was indeed unusual.
"I have tried my best to come here again."
Kasumigaoka Utaha sat down with Natsukawa and said:
"After all, it's hard to get a holiday so there will always be some things to do. However, Miss Yuanzi, who is not married yet, probably can't understand it."
Machida gritted his teeth secretly. Kasumigaoka Utaha naturally knew about her situation as an older left-over woman.
But she didn't expect that this guy would expose her secrets in front of outsiders.
Well, Xia Chuan in front of him is indeed not an outsider.
So did Shiyu come here specially to show off his affection to her? !
Machida Sonoko endured it, if it weren't for maintaining her image as an intellectual big sister!
"Nice to meet you. My name is Machida Sonoko, and I'm Shiyu's friend and editor."
She formally extended her hand toward Xia Chuan.
"Just call me Xiachuan. Thank you for taking care of Shiyu."
Xia Chuan also responded naturally.
A simple handshake is a good way to greet someone for the first time.
Just shaking hands, Machida Sonoko, as a woman, naturally couldn't help but look at Natsukawa at the same time.
He is indeed tall and handsome, and has a gentle and elegant temperament.
He is an excellent tenor!
Considering that he and Shiyu were in the same high school, Machida Yuanko couldn't help but think about visiting this high school someday.
As he thought about this, the handshake naturally continued.
Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but glance at Machida Sonoko.
Oh no, I won’t let the wolf into the house.
She originally planned to let Natsukawa and Machida Sonoko get to know each other.
On the one hand, she wanted to let Natsukawa get involved in her business circle, and on the other hand, she wanted to let her boss and friend Machida know of his existence.
But, this old woman...why won’t she let go?
Shiyu looked down at their hands which were still clasped together.
She knew the aggressiveness of older single women, but wouldn't Machida be so hungry that he would even have thoughts about his own boyfriend? !
"Editor Machida."
Shiyu can't let this situation go on.
Female members of the family do not count.
How could she allow other women to touch her too much in front of her?
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Machida Sonoko turned her head and glanced at Shiyu, as if she didn't realize why Shiyu reacted so strongly.
Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a half-smile: "So how long are we going to hold hands?"
“Uh…Oh!!”
Machida Sonoko suddenly came to her senses!
"Yes, sorry, sorry."
She quickly let go of his hand, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she felt that her previous behavior was too rude.
Xia Chuan was fine, and smiled: "Ms. Machida is really enthusiastic."
"Haha~"
Shi Yu sneered sarcastically: "Maybe it's because it's rare to meet a handsome guy."
Machida Sonoko has a close relationship with Shiyu and did not give Shiyu any chance to take advantage of her misfortune.
"Stop making this a topic. I'm not going to steal someone else's boyfriend."
She quickly resumed her serious attitude at work: "Let's just talk about work!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't pursue the matter any further, so she sat in front of Machida Sonoko and let Natsukawa sit next to her.
Even business matters require Xiachuan to be present and listen in...Shiyu and Xiachuan's relationship is really special.
Gathering this thought, Machida Sonoko turned her attention back.
Machida Sonoko is still very familiar with Kasumigaoka Utaha.
At the same time, for an editor who can sit in an office, his professional ability is naturally beyond doubt.
Kasumigaoka Utaha began to take out the outline and ideas for the sequel to the novel from her bag, and Machida Sonoko also took a professional attitude and helped Utaha analyze it seriously.
Professionals should naturally come from professionals, and Xia Chuan just watched how the editor and the author get along with each other.
After discussing the content of the novel, we will take the opportunity to hold a book signing event during the holidays when there are many people.
Most of the people who are popular with Kasumigaoka Utaha's works are young readers, so naturally, in order to expand the fan stickiness, there is a need for an event such as a book signing session.
0 ······Request flowers··· ··
It was only when the autograph session was mentioned that Machida Sonoko suddenly thought of something.
"Shiyu, your relationship with Xiachuan should not be known to those outside, right?"
Knowing what Machida Sonoko was concerned about, Shiha said nonchalantly:
"Of course I know. I don't intend to hide anything."
Hearing this, Machida Sonoko got a headache.
"Shiyu, you underestimate people's jealousy."
"By then, news of your dating will surely spread online, which will affect your book signing event."
In addition to good writing skills, the talented and beautiful female writer is also one of the reasons why the novel became popular.
Having anticipated this, or rather bringing Xia Chuan to the showdown, Shi Yu spoke frankly:
“Just conduct fan screening.”
"My original intention of writing novels was to tell a story through words and to see how good I am in this field."
"Anyway, I'm already unhappy about the author using his appearance as a selling point, so I'll just deal with it right away."
"..."
Machida Sonoko was very surprised.
