He unexpectedly becomes a father at the start of his life, and the mother of his child is a national

Amidst the trending topic, some parents who managed to buy the books were showing off and sharing their joy, while others who missed out were lamenting and urging for a reprint.

Many more unsuspecting passersby were drawn in, curious about why a children's book could spark such a buying frenzy, and then went to learn more about it, or even became interested in buying it themselves.

For a time, "Haolin" and "The Adventures of Chen Family Heiress in the Mountains and Seas" became phenomenal topics.

Its popularity far exceeded the publisher's initial expectations and even shattered many people's preconceived notions about the "children's book market".

……

In a high-end lakeside hotel suite in Hangzhou.

Lin Caiwei had just finished a brand commercial event and returned to her room.

She removed her exquisite makeup and elaborate dress, took a relaxing hot shower, changed into a soft and comfortable silk robe, and leaned against the spacious bed in the bedroom.

Outside the window was the famous lake and mountain scenery of Hangzhou, but she had no mind to appreciate it at the moment.

A wave of fatigue washed over her; the high-intensity work and packed schedule left her physically and mentally exhausted.

There's another concert tonight; I can only breathe a little easier after I finish performing.

She has no work scheduled for tomorrow; she plans to fly back to Shanghai tonight as soon as the concert ends.

She misses her daughter terribly.

It's been quite a while since I've been able to properly hug Sisi and listen to her chatter.

I'm going back to Shanghai for a day to rest and spend some quality time with my daughter.

This thought brought a gentle smile to her tired face.

Of course, I also need to meet Chen Hao.

She added in her mind, her face slightly flushed.

Besides seeing her daughter, she also wanted to talk to him about his new songs; he had mentioned writing a few more...

Moreover, since the collaboration on "Starlight and Dust" was so successful last time, shouldn't I... also express my gratitude?

Thinking of this, Lin Caiwei picked up her phone from the bedside table.

What gift should I get for my daughter? Sisi likes pretty dresses.

New toy?

still is……

She habitually opened the search app on her phone, hoping to find some novel children's gift recommendations.

As soon as she tapped the app, before she even entered any keywords, several eye-catching terms on the trending search list jumped into her view.

#The Chen Family Heiress's Adventures in the Mountains and Seas - Gone in a Second#

#Haolin Children's Book Industry's New Top Star#

"Hmm?" Lin Caiwei raised an eyebrow slightly.

A children's book has gone viral?

Is it also related to "Haolin"?

She's too sensitive about that name.

Chen Hao's pseudonym as a musician is "Haolin".

She clicked on the topic out of curiosity.

I quickly glanced at it and got the gist of it.

It's a very popular children's book recently. The author's pen name is "Haolin". The physical book was released today and sold out instantly, sparking a lot of discussion among parents and netizens.

"Haolin..."

Lin Caiwei murmured the pen name, a strange feeling rising in her heart.

Same name?

still……?

She remembered that besides writing and singing songs, Chen Hao also seemed to write something online.

She never asked what exactly was written.

Is it...

She shook her head, realizing she was overthinking things.

Chen Hao's musical talent is already surprising enough, but could he also be so talented in literary creation?

It's unlikely that a person can reach the top level in two completely different fields at the same time, given their limited energy.

Besides, he also had to take care of Sisi.

They must have the same name.

She told herself that.

The topic mentioned that this book is serialized online on "Tongxin.com".

Coincidentally, Lin Caiwei actually had this app on her phone—she had downloaded it before to find bedtime stories for Sisi, though she didn't use it often.

She exited the search app, found the Tongxin.com icon, and clicked on it.

Sure enough, a large poster for "The Adventures of the Chen Family's Daughter in the Mountains and Seas" was featured on the homepage.

When she clicked on it, the first thing she saw was the author's information: Haolin.

Then comes the introduction to the work and a sample reading.

As she looked at it, Lin Caiwei's brows gradually furrowed.

The main character in this book... is named "Sisi"? A little girl?

The book is titled "The Adventures of the Chen Family's Daughter in the Mountains and Seas," and "the Chen family's daughter"... Sisi?

Chen Hao's surname is Chen, and her daughter's name is Sisi...

This... isn't this too much of a coincidence?

An absurd yet seemingly reasonable guess emerged uncontrollably: the protagonist of this book, Sisi, is her daughter, Sisi?

Is this book based on Chen Hao's daughter?

But as soon as the thought arose, she dismissed it herself.

impossible.

It is absolutely impossible.

Chen Hao used to be a food delivery driver; he graduated from high school.

Even if he later displayed amazing musical talent, it could still be explained as some buried talent suddenly awakening.

But writing a book, especially a children's book that is so popular and highly acclaimed, requires more than just talent.

In addition, there is a wealth of reading experience, literary cultivation, a precise understanding of children's psychology, and a consistent and stable creative ability.

This is a huge difference from the background of a food delivery worker.

Perhaps... it really is just a coincidence?

The author "Haolin" is someone else, but it just so happens that he used the common girl's nickname "Sisi," and the book title also happens to have the character "Chen" in it?

Lin Caiwei was torn between two conflicting thoughts.

Reason told her that the latter was more likely, but emotionally, the thought of "what if" lingered.

She shook off these chaotic thoughts and focused her attention back on the book itself.

She glanced at the reader reviews, which were all positive. Many parents said their children loved it and read it repeatedly.

The story synopsis also looks interesting; it's a reinterpretation of traditional mythology from a modern child's perspective.

Sisi would probably like this kind of book.

Lin Caiwei thought.

Since it's so popular and the reviews are so good, why not buy a copy and bring it home as a gift for my daughter? She'll definitely be very happy.

"Siqi".

Lin Caiwei looked up and called out to her assistant, Chen Siqi, who was sitting in the outer living room handling matters.

Chen Siqi came in upon hearing the noise: "Caiwei, what's wrong?"

"Go buy me a book." Lin Caiwei turned her phone screen towards her, pointing to the cover of "The Adventures of the Chen Family's Daughter in the Mountains and Seas."

"This is it, 'The Adventures of the Chen Family's Daughter in the Mountains and Seas.' A physical copy. A gift for Sisi."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Chen Siqi glanced at it, nodded, noted down the book title, and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute," Lin Caiwei called out to her again.

Chen Siqi stopped and turned around: "Is there anything else?"

Lin Caiwei opened her mouth, a hint of embarrassment appearing on her face, and her voice lowered:

"Um... could you pick out another gift for me... for Chen Hao?"

"For Chen Hao?" Chen Siqi was taken aback for a moment, then realized what she meant, and a knowing smile appeared on her face.

"Oh, it's time to send a gift."

The authorization for "Starlight and Dust" last time, and his promise to write a new song for you, helped you a lot.

Sending a gift to express gratitude is perfectly reasonable.

She emphasized the words "reasonable" a little more, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.

Lin Caiwei felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze, avoided her eyes, and cleared her throat:

"Hmm... it's just to express my gratitude. What do you think would be appropriate to give?"
