On the first day when the new book was put on the shelves, some bookstores with insufficient stock were sold out immediately, and calls were made to the publishing house one after another to ask for replenishment.

Although it was the weekend, Machida Sonoko, who was the editor today, had no intention of resting at home, and came to the library early.

After learning about the bookstore's request for replenishment, she immediately contacted some other big bookstores, and after learning about the general situation, she quickly called Shi Yu.

It was approaching evening at this moment, Shiyu was hugging the cat on the sofa in the living room at home, watching TV leisurely.

She cooked the lunch at noon today, so I called Yi Chen for dinner.

The phone rang, she picked it up, looked at it and connected it.

"Hey, Miss Yuanzi, is it about the release of the novel?"

Hearing Shiwa's tone, Machida Sonoko said excitedly: "That's right, Shiwa, I'm in the library now, and many bookstores are urging for replenishment, and even big bookstores in Akihabara and other places, The sales of the new book are also very good, and it is estimated that it will be replenished in a day or two! This time it was a big success! Wait, why are you not in a hurry?"

"Why the hurry?"

Shi Yu asked back and said, "I am no longer a rookie who just started writing novels. I am very aware of the quality of my own new books, and the publishing house has given me a lot of publicity resources. After the release in the morning, I ate After lunch, I read some reviews about the new book on the Internet, and I can predict the situation of the new book issue."

"Tsk tsk, among other things, your personality is getting closer to your boyfriend, and the more you are at this time, the calmer you will be." After making complaints, Machida Sonoko said, "According to the situation of the sale in various places today, we just made I made an estimate, this month and next month, your new book should be on the bestseller list in these two months. October may be ranked a little lower, but after the evaluation of the novel is completely spread next month, the sales volume will still be high. There will be a big increase, and the ranking can definitely rush to the front!"

Machida Sonoko's excited tone, even though Shiwa had confidently predicted this, she was still infected and smiled.

"That's really good, Sister Yuanzi, would you like to come to my place after get off work later, and let's have dinner together to celebrate?"

"No, today is the first day of your new book's release. I have to stay in the library, and then I have to calculate the sales results of the whole day today. Let's put the celebration later."

After speaking, Machida Sonoko quickly hung up the phone and went to work.

Putting down the phone, Shi Yu shook her head helplessly: "It's not without reason that I can't find a boyfriend."

At this moment, Yi Chen, who was busy in the kitchen, poked his head out.

"Sister Yuan Zi's phone number? How are the sales of the new book?"

Shi Yu put the cat aside, trotted over and hugged Yi Chen, looked at him and said, "Of course it's all right, those bookstores that don't have many orders are calling to urge them to restock. Even big The bookstore will definitely need to restock in two days, and the results on the release day are completely fine."

"That's good."

Shi Yu's new book is selling well, so Yi Chen is naturally very happy, he kissed Shi Yu with a smile and said, "Wait a little longer, the candlelight dinner will be ready."

Originally, with the release of the new book today, Yi Chen wanted to have a meal outside with Shi Yu to celebrate after knowing what happened on the first day, but Shi Yu didn't really want to go out, so he decided to have a candlelight dinner at home .

Shi Yu nodded with a smile, didn't bother Yi Chen anymore, went back and obediently waited for the dinner to be finished.

........

Monday, school.

Compared to Yichen's identity as a game producer is already known by the whole school, Shiyu's identity as a light novel writer is only known to a few teachers.

After coming to the class, the two of them heard the girls gathering together to discuss the content of Shi Yu's novel, as expected, and two of them even held the first volume of the new book in their hands.

As soon as he put down his schoolbag, several girls rushed over excitedly.

"Kasumigaoka-san! Have you read this novel that just came out?"

Shi Yu didn't expect that someone would bring her novel and ask her if she had read it.

With an unpredictable smile on the corner of her mouth, Shi Yu nodded and said: "Well, of course I have read it, it's a pretty good novel."

It's a self-promotion.

Then, under Yi Chen's observation, several girls discussed the content of the novel with Shi Yu, which almost made Yi Chen unable to hold back his laughter.

But within a few minutes, a few boys ran over and asked about Yi Chen's Persona, and wanted Mizuki Nana's autograph.

Of course, you can't give autographs or anything else, and Yi Chen has only kept a few for himself, and they will be used as lucky draws after the live broadcast, and they will all be given away.

But seeing these students looking forward to his game, Yi Chen agreed to wait for the game's peripheral posters to come out, and give them a copy for each of them.

Chapter 311 The Two Girls Who Stayed Up Late to Read Novels

At noon, serve the Ministry.

Holding the bento box and opening the door of the service department, Yi Chen and Shi Yu saw that Yukino had arrived first.

"Good afternoon, senior, senior sister."

"good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Yukino."

Shi Yu walked in, and found that there were some faint dark circles on Xue Nao's face.

"Xue Nai, did you not sleep well last night?"

Having said this, Yukino blushed a little shyly, and took out a novel from the desk drawer beside her.

"I was reading my sister's new book last night, and I accidentally stayed up late. Senior sister, the new writing is great, and the style feels more mature than the love metronome."

Are you reading my new book?

Compared with the people in the class, Xue Nai's evaluation undoubtedly made Shi Yu happier. After all, although this young lady also reads light novels, she doesn't read many. She prefers to read various classics or traditional literature.

"Thank you for your compliment, Yukino, but you still need to work harder."

After coming to sit next to Xue Nai, everyone opened their lunch boxes and prepared to have lunch.

For the lunch box at noon, everyone takes turns making soup, and today it's Yi Chen's turn.

He poured out the soup in the thermos and said, "Ying Lili hasn't come yet, didn't she say she would come for lunch?"

As soon as they finished speaking, the staff from the service department opened it, and the three of them saw Ying Lili yawning and walking in with a bento bag.

"good afternoon......"

Shi Yu narrowed her eyes, looked at Ying Lili and asked, "How is my new book going?"

Ying Lili was feeling sleepy at the moment, she nodded instinctively and replied: "Well, the writing is unexpectedly beautiful... huh?"

With her eyes widened, Ying Lili looked at the smiling Shi Yu.

"What are you guys asking?"

"Ah la la, it's nothing~~~"

Shi Yu shook her head with a smile, and waved to Ying Lili: "Sit down and eat quickly, you look so sleepy, take a nap after eating, otherwise you will definitely not have the energy to go to class in the afternoon."

"No road race, you don't need to say more!"

Sitting down on the other side of Xue Nai, Ying Lili took a sip of the hot soup handed over by Yi Chen, and she finally felt refreshed.

"Let me tell you, the novel is really good, but the illustrations are not so interesting!"

While eating the bento, Shiyu said with a light smile, "I can't help it. After all, I can't compare with Mr. Eri Kashiwagi, a big name in the industry. Mr. Eri Kashiwagi, my new book is released, I wonder if you would like to draw a picture for me?" Where is Zhang's congratulatory picture celebrating the release of the new book?"

"I said it's not good to call me by this name! I quit the circle!"

Ying Lili glared at Shi Yu dissatisfied and said, "But it's okay to just draw a picture of He. Although I said that I have withdrawn from the circle, my account is still there. Give me some time, and I can draw it on Friday and Saturday. Go out, but what about the reward? Don't think you can whore for nothing!"

"Don't worry, it's impossible to go whoring for nothing."

Shi Yu waved her hand, and soon agreed on the reward with Ying Lili.After all, it is just a congratulatory picture, and the cost cannot be too high.

Of course, if Shiyu really wanted to go whoring for nothing, maybe Yinglili would really be happy if she tried hard, but with Shiyu's character, she definitely wouldn't do that.

After eating lunch for a while, Xue Nai looked at Yi Chen and Shi Yu and said, "This week, the school trip for the third year of high school is about to start."

"That's right, Wednesday to Friday."

Yi Chen nodded and said, "In three days, Shi Yu and I are definitely not going to go, and we just have to prepare for the interview at Dongdae University on the weekend."

"Interview at Dongdae..."

Ying Lili bit her chopsticks, looked at the two and asked, "Can I go and see it on the weekend? I haven't been to Dongdae."

"Haven't you been to Dongdae?"

Now it's Yi Chen's turn to be surprised. It's not that East University doesn't allow outsiders to visit all year round. Plus, Ying Lili is still a young lady. If her parents want to, they can take Ying Lili to Dongda for a visit. , to experience the atmosphere of a top university.

In this regard, Ying Lili shook her long double ponytails and said: "I was not very interested in studying before, and my parents never thought that I must go to Dongdae University, so they didn't mention it to me." This matter. Now I am already a sophomore in high school, and I will be a senior in high school next year. I have to consider the university, so I want to visit Dongda University. Of course, if I take the exam, I will definitely not take the exam. I don’t have an art major. .”

If you go to visit the University of Tokyo, there is no problem with this, after all, Shizuka Hiratsuka will take you with you.

"Okay, you can go if you want." After Shi Yu agreed, she looked at Xue Nai and said, "Xue Nai, do you want to go with us then? You also want to take the entrance exam for Dongda?"

Without waiting for Xue Nai to answer, Ying Lili rushed to say: "Yes, Xue Nai is also going to be admitted to Dongda University. When the time comes, we will gather in advance and go there together!"

When Ying Lili said that she would go and have a look with her, Xue Nai did have an idea, but she never brought it up on this kind of matter.

After Ying Lili finished answering, she nodded and said: "I really want to go and understand what it means, then I will trouble the seniors and sisters then."

After the Mandarin class in the afternoon, Yi Chen hurriedly followed Hiratsuka after she left the classroom and called her to stop.

"Mr. Hiratsuka, I have something to tell you."

Seeing Yi Chen running over, Hiratsuka asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's about going to Dongda University on weekends." Yichen said with a smile, "I talked about it during lunch, and then Ying Lili and Yukino also wanted to see the interview atmosphere of Dongda University. Hiratsuka teacher, you know it, Yukino The university also intends to take the entrance examination to Dongda, and she will go to the Faculty of Law of Dongda."

"Oh, let's go together."

Hiratsuka nodded calmly, and said without the slightest embarrassment, "Okay, it's not a big deal, those two girls are good students, even if Eriri didn't take the exam to Tokyo University, she would probably go to something like Tokyo University of the Arts. You don't have to worry about this matter, I will talk to the grade director later, and I will definitely agree. "

"Okay, I'll trouble Hiratsuka-sensei then."

Sure enough, when school was over, Hiratsuka Jing came over and talked to Yi Chen about it, and the grade director was 100% okay.After all, Xue Nai and Ying Lili, one is the first grade in the second year of high school, the other is the top specialty in art, and their studies are not bad. They are both students who need to be cultivated.

Taking advantage of the interview at Dongda University this time, I can just bring them over and talk to them about further education in advance.

In this way, after the school trip in the third year of high school, on Sunday morning, Yi Chen and Shi Yu were ready to set off.

Chapter 312 Interview

For today's interview, Yi Chen's parents originally wanted to come, but they were persuaded by Yi Chen during the phone call.To him, this was just an interview, and it was impossible for him to fail.

So in the end, the job of accompanying her was handed over to Shiyu's parents.

After meeting Shi Yu's parents and going downstairs together, Yi Chen drove his own car, carrying Shi Yu and Shi Yu's parents, to the school first.

On the school side, there are Shizuka Hiratsuka and the grade director.

Soon, when they came to the school, Yi Chen didn't continue to park the car outside today, but drove in directly.

After parking the car, the four of them came to the office, found Shizuka Hiratsuka who had been waiting, and also saw Ying Lili and Yukino who had arrived.

After saying hello to Shi Yu's parents, Hiratsuka Jing looked at Yi Chen and Shi Yu: "How are you getting ready?"

Yi Chen said with a relaxed face: "It's just an interview, it's nothing difficult. There are people who have understood my professional ability over there, and most of the interviews should be based on this aspect. Compared with me, Shiyu's side may It will be a little more difficult."

Yi Chen must be going to the Department of Computer Science, while Shi Yu is going to the Department of Literature, and the interview content of the two sides must be completely different.

Shiyu was not at all nervous about the upcoming interview.

"Don't worry, Hiratsuka-sensei, during the three years of high school, I certainly didn't just study and write novels."

Seeing how confident these two are, Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't say any more.

After 2 minutes, the grade director arrived and everyone set off.

Yichen has a car, and Hiratsuka Jing is also driving with the grade director, Xue Nai and Ying Lili.

The main campus of the University of Tokyo is located in Bunkyo District, next to Shinjuku District, so it is very convenient to go there.

Bunkyo District has many national and private universities, middle schools and colleges here, and it even has the name of an educational and cultural district.

It is said that Toyosaki was originally going to be built here, but in the end it seemed that it was built in Shinjuku because there was not enough area for the school to be built.

Twenty minutes later, two cars drove slowly into the gate of Dongda University.

Hiratsuka Shizuka has been to Dongda University several times, so she is very familiar with it, so she drove ahead and brought Yichen's car to the parking lot.

After parking the car, the grade director Shizuka Hiratsuka took everyone to the place where the interview was about to start.

After walking to the teaching building, the grade director separated from everyone else. He had to be busy with other things and had to meet a lot of people.

Compared with Shizuka Hiratsuka, Ying Lili is relatively new to the grade director of the third year of high school, and she was able to let go of talking only after knowing that the other party had left.

Looking at the surrounding buildings and the scattered students passing by, she said curiously: "Sure enough, it's not the same as the atmosphere of high school. Although it's the weekend, some students still bring books and are in a hurry look."

Hiratsuka glanced at them and said: "Those should be graduate students, probably busy with their projects. Alright, here we are, there is not much time left before the interview begins."

Entering the teaching building where the interview was held, Yi Chen found that teachers from several schools had brought their students over.

After the registration, Shizuka Hiratsuka said hello to a few teachers she knew, and then led everyone to the outside of the classroom where the interview was going to be held.

"This is your interview site for Yi Chen, and yours for Shi Yu is upstairs." Handing out the interview forms of the two students in his hand, Hiratsuka Jing said, "Yi Chen, you just stay here and wait. Let's take Shiyu up, how about?"
