Chen Hao quickly opened the comment sections of the two songs.

Below Starlight and Dust:

"I stumbled upon it and was blown away! The voice, the composition, the lyrics! A newcomer? I'd believe it if you told me it was a veteran in the music industry!"

"I've been listening to this song on repeat all morning; the lyrics really resonate with me."

"You are an unreachable starlight, and I am but an insignificant speck of dust." Tears welled up in my eyes.

"I need the author's information! Who is Haolin? He's a fantastic singer-songwriter! It would be an injustice if this song didn't become a hit!"

"I've already tipped, please share more works! It's amazing that a song of this quality is free; the author is incredibly generous!"

"Catchy melody, profound lyrics, and emotionally resonant performance. A hidden gem of a singer, I've followed them!"

Below "Sisi's Rainbow Bridge":

"What a heartwarming children's song! I played it for my daughter, and she loved it, constantly singing 'la la la' along!"

"As a mom, I rarely hear such beautiful and high-quality original children's songs. I've already downloaded them; they're a must-have for putting my child to sleep at night!"

"Is the author a father? The lyrics are full of fatherly love; they brought tears to my eyes. I'll sing one for my baby too!"

"Your voice is so beautiful! Even your children's songs are so soothing! I've followed you and look forward to more of your work!"

"This is the kind of music for children—beautiful melodies and uplifting lyrics—a million times better than those mindless nursery rhymes!"

Unanimously positive reviews!

Almost no negative reviews!

Chen Hao was deeply moved.

The sense of accomplishment from having your work recognized and loved by so many strangers is indescribable.

He calmed himself down, checked the time, and saw it was almost noon.

I made myself a simple lunch and ate it.

After dinner, he sat down on the sofa in the living room to rest, and casually opened the author backend of Tongxin.com to see if there had been any changes in his income from fairy tales.

Upon logging in, I immediately saw a prominent in-site message:

"Dear author 'Haolin,' congratulations! Your work, 'The Adventures of the Chen Family's Daughter in the Mountains and Seas,' has been selected for the platform's 'Splash Screen Recommendation' due to its outstanding data performance!"

Recommended time: Tomorrow 00:00-24:00. Please keep updating and keep up the good work!

A featured splash screen ad?

Although Chen Hao didn't quite understand the rules of the online novel circle, he knew that this was definitely a good recommendation.

He quickly opened the Tongxin.com reader app.

Upon opening, the phone screen lights up, and instead of the usual homepage, a beautifully designed poster appears!

The poster features the title of the book, "The Adventures of Chen Family Heiress in the Mountains and Seas," and the pen name "Haolin" in the center, against a background of fantastical illustrations in the style of the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

Several adorable cartoon characters (you can vaguely make out the likenesses of Sisi, the manta ray, and the little white fox) leap out from the image, with a line of text below:

"The most promising fairy tale of the year, taking you on a journey into a magical world of mountains and seas!"

This is truly a featured recommendation on the opening screen!

Chen Hao was overjoyed.

He immediately returned to the author's back office to check his earnings.

Yesterday's subscription revenue: 3240 yuan.

Yesterday's tipping income: 10420 yuan!

Total income: 13660 yuan!

I earned over 13,000 yuan a day!

It's many times more than before!

The majority of the revenue came from tips, which shows how much readers like and are willing to support this book.

"This splash screen recommendation spot... it's really powerful," Chen Hao couldn't help but exclaim.

The treatment given to top-tier individuals also yields top-tier results.

Looking at the constantly increasing subscription and donation numbers in the background, Chen Hao felt full of motivation.

With readers so enthusiastic, he couldn't afford to slack off.

"I'll take a nap this afternoon, and then... update two new fairy tales."

He leaned back in the soft sofa and made his decision.

Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing him in warmth, much like his current mood—filled with anticipation for the future and the satisfaction of his hard work.

……

In the afternoon, in the classroom of Class 3, Junior Grade, St. John's International Bilingual Kindergarten.

Sunlight streamed in through the bright windows, illuminating the brightly colored cartoon wall decorations and the neatly arranged small tables and chairs.

A group of three- or four-year-old children sat fairly upright, most of them with wide, curious eyes, looking at the young and beautiful English teacher, Ms. Su, in front of the podium.

Today, Ms. Su was wearing a light yellow dress, with a sweet smile, and was using exaggerated body language and rich expressions to lead the children in reviewing the English they had learned in the past few days.

"OK, children! Let's review!" Ms. Su clapped her hands and said in clear English.

"First, colors! What color is this?" She held up a red card.

"Red!" Most of the children answered in unison, their voices loud but uneven.

"Good! And this?" (Yellow card)

"Yellow!"

"This?" A blue card.

"Blue!"

After reviewing the colors, Ms. Su began asking some simple questions.

How are you today?

A few children answered sporadically, "I'm fine!" and "Good!"

Ms. Su nodded, her gaze sweeping over the entire class.

She noticed Lin Sisi sitting in the third row by the window.

This little girl is exceptionally beautiful and adorable. She's usually very quiet and well-behaved, and she excels at both drawing and singing.

But in previous English classes, she seemed to fall behind a bit, and when answering questions, her voice was soft and she was hesitant to speak.

Teacher Su thought it might be because the child was introverted or a little timid about unfamiliar languages.

Today, she wanted to encourage Lin Sisi.

Ms. Su smiled and specifically called on Lin Sisi: "Sissy (Sisi's English name), can you answer my question?"

When her name was suddenly called, Lin Sisi looked up. Her face showed no nervousness or timidity that Teacher Su had expected. Instead, she was calm and even a little confident.

"OK, Sissy." Teacher Su asked a question she had just learned that day, one that was a little difficult for the children, in a slow and deliberate manner:

"What's your favorite fruit? And what color is it?"

This question requires combining two knowledge points (fruit vocabulary and color vocabulary) and being able to articulate them.

Many children may only be able to say one word, or they may need prompting from the teacher.

The classroom fell silent, and all the other children looked at Lin Sisi.

Lin Sisi stood up almost without hesitation and answered fluently in a clear, standard child's voice:

My favorite fruit is an apple. It's red.

Pronunciation is accurate!

The grammar is correct!

The sentence is complete!

Teacher Su was stunned for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

That's a great answer!

This completely exceeded her previous understanding of Lin Sisi's abilities.
