But...

If he is the future son-in-law of the Ye family, he can't just be a crepe seller, right?

Although she couldn't be sure that Lu Li would definitely enter her house, judging from her daughter's attitude, there was a high probability that the roses in her house would be taken away by this pig, so Ruoye had to think more about the future.

Selling cakes is not an option, so if this kid has any ideas about music, Ruoye plans to help Lu Li.

"Thank you."

After hearing Ruo Ye say this, although he was not sure whether the other party was just being polite, Lu Li still expressed his gratitude.

To be honest, he thought that Ruoye, the old master, would be furious after seeing him and the precious princess of Ruoye's family learning guitar together. However, what Lu Li didn't expect was that Ruoye, the old master, was not only not angry, but also prepared such a high-standard meal to entertain him.

"Well, let's eat. Young people should eat more."

Seeing Lu Li's neither humble nor arrogant attitude, Ruo Ye nodded secretly in her heart.

Although this guy is just a crepe seller, he controls his attitude very well when facing this famous artist. He is neither too flattering nor too afraid, which is a good thing.

Being born in a humble family is not a problem. Everyone has opportunities. Status is temporary, but if you have a bad mentality, it may be lifelong.

After taking two bites of the food, Ruoye said as if she had thought of something: "By the way, I'm older than you, can I just call you by your name?"

"of course can."

Lu Li nodded.

"Okay then, I'll just call you by your name from now on."

Ruoye said this and then looked at the nanny standing beside her: "Please bring me the bottle of red wine I brought back earlier."

"Okay, Mr. Wakaba."

The nanny heard the sound and went to get the red wine.

After the nanny took action, Ruoye looked at Lu Li: "Lu Li, can you drink?"

"..."

Lao Deng, you asked someone to get it before asking me if it was okay. Tell me, do you have cat biscuits?

"Mr. Ruoye, I can't drink much."

"It's okay if you can't drink much, as long as you can drink it. This bottle of red wine is from my special collection. It tastes great. Try it."

Once Ruoye accepted the idea that Lu Li might be his son-in-law, he had to think about how to help Lu Li, so he planned to start by treating Lu Li well.

For men, it is easy to close the distance at the wine table, so he used his collection of red wine to entertain Lu Li, so that he could get to know Lu Li better, and by the way, see if there is any way to help this boy selling cakes to complete the class transition.

Ugh……

Difficult.

Who in this world has a harder time than him?

He is really worried about his unfilial daughter!

Thinking of this, Ruoye suddenly felt uncomfortable. The bitter wine went into her throat and her heart ached. Without waiting for Lu Li to drink, Ruoye drank two large glasses of red wine in a row.

As it turned out, Ruoye's collection of red wine was indeed strong enough. After drinking these two large glasses of wine, Ruoye felt that his condition had improved.

That’s about it, he’s getting to the point!

"Lu Li, let me ask you, let me ask you."

"Mr. Ruoye, please ask."

“Are you still working in the catering industry?”

“This, however, is no longer available.”

"Oh? So what are you doing?"

"Actually, I've been working on literature recently."

"Literature... Oh, now I remember. I heard from Mu that you were writing a light novel, right? Lu Li, let me tell you, light novels..."

Just when Ruoye was about to say that light novels were useless and meaningless, suddenly, Ruoye's phone vibrated.

"Ok?"

Wakaba picked up his phone. He had specially set the vibration. As an upper-class person, Wakaba had always been concerned about what was happening in the Japanese literary world. Therefore, he would pay special attention to some important domestic literary awards every year. And now the vibration of his phone should mean that the latest literary award has been selected.

"Lu Li, let me tell you, if you plan to pursue a career in literature, then don't just think about light novels. Although light novels can make money, they are not something that can really make a difference. My advice is..."

As she spoke, Ruoye picked up her phone to check the latest push message. It should be that a newcomer won a literary award.

It just so happens that he can use this as an example to Lu Li.

"Lu Li, have you ever paid attention to the literary world?"

"Not this one."

"I'm telling you, light novels just won't make it big. If you want to pursue literary creation, you should focus on traditional literature. I've been keeping an eye on this area. Come, let me tell you about the latest award winners. Listen, and then take a look and learn from them."

As he spoke, Ruoye began to carefully look at the latest push notifications that appeared on his phone.

"First, the Akutagawa Ryunosuke Award. Let me see, the latest winner is 'Push, Burning', written by Usagi Suzu."

"Then there's the Naoki Prize. The latest winner is 'Sansouou no Forty-Nine Days,' written by Asahina Aki."

"Look, in terms of literature, we need to learn from these two masters, don't you know?"

"Yeah, I understand."

Lu Li nodded.

Seeing Lu Li so sensible, Ruo Ye was very relieved: "I understand. However, young people should not focus on the Akutagawa Ryunosuke Prize and the Naoki Prize. After all, these two awards are not for newcomers. As for you, my opinion is that you should work hard. Maybe you can win some awards, such as this..."

"Look at this New Creation Literature Award. It's quite good. It's a literary award that has just emerged in recent years. Although it's new, it's very valuable."

"Let me see the winner. This year's winner is '一生バンドを', and the author is..."

Then the next moment, Ruoye widened her eyes.

Author: Lu Li.

Ruoye: “???”

237

Chapter 237: Let your mother teach you.

Ruoye is a little confused now.

This reminded him of the time when he first met his wife Mori Minami. At that time, he carefully went with his wife to meet his future father-in-law and mother-in-law.

He was a little scared at that time, and unfortunately, he had a poor alcohol tolerance at that time, but his father-in-law was a heavy drinker, so when they met for the first time, he was drunk by his father-in-law.

Then, when he woke up and looked at the unfamiliar room, Ruoye was confused.

Who am I, where am I, what am I doing? !

At this moment, Ruoye's condition is similar to that time.

"Lu Li? Is this your work?!"

Ruoye's voice rose several degrees.

Even though he had drunk two large glasses of strong red wine and was about to ascend to heaven, Ruoye still woke up in an instant.

Author: Lu Li.

What the hell? !

I thought you were a pancake seller, but you told me you're a hidden great writer?!

The New Literature Award is not some fake award. It is the highest-level award that new writers can get.

As for those writer nomination awards that are higher than this award, those that are said to be available to newcomers are actually given to old works that have generated both sales and reputation, so in fact, this is the highest literary award that new domestic writers can get.

And then, Lu Li actually won this award? !

No, man.

You are a great writer, why didn’t you say so earlier?

I've been begging and pleading for a few writers to support our Ruoye family so that people won't call us nouveau riche, but after searching everywhere, I found a literary giant right next to me! ?

"Lu Li, you, why didn't you say you had this level earlier?"

Ruoye put down her phone and smiled happily.

"Come on, drink some wine. Come on, open another bottle of wine. Open that 1982 Lafite I brought back earlier."

Ruoye, who discovered that her future son-in-law seemed to be a rich man, took action immediately.

Don’t blame him for his big change in attitude. The main reason is that Lu Li’s current identity is too attractive.

What is the Ruoye family lacking now?

Money? Power? Fame?

In fact, the Ruoye family has all of these.

What the Ruoye family really lacks is foundation.

Because the Wakaba clan is supported by Wakaba and his wife Mori Minami, people in the circle think they are a bit like nouveau riche.

Wakaba and Mori Minami, one is an actor and the other is a comedian, are definitely famous enough, but this is limited to their generation. However, when it comes to family, one generation is not enough. A family that collapses in one generation is not really a family at all.

This is also why the couple wants Mu to inherit their acting career.

To be honest, Ruoye has already made preparations. After all, his Baicai has already decided not to inherit their identity as an actor, so they want to make more money for Baicai to spend in the future. Anyway, little Baicai has grown up and learned to resist. Even if he will not become rich in the future, at least he will not have to worry about food and clothing. In this way, even if the couple dies one day, they will feel at ease.

Therefore, Ruoye also thought that if Ruoye Mu really had to be with a crepe seller, as long as this person was not a bad person, then they could be together. Xiao Baicai would grow up and would no longer be a mouthpiece for others. That would be enough.

But this is the worst-case scenario. That is to say, if possible, Ruoye still hopes that the family built by him and his wife can last.

but……

But it seems different now. If the person Ye Mu likes is a literary giant, then it would be completely different!

Wakaba, as a star, knows best how high the status of a literary giant is in today's society. It is no exaggeration to say that whenever Wakaba sees those who have won the Akutagawa Ryunosuke Prize and the Naoki Prize, he has to bow his head and politely call them "teacher". And it's not just him. People in the entire entertainment industry, no matter whether they are actors, entertainers or singers, have to be respectful when facing a literary figure recognized by society.

Of course, the premise of this is that this person must be recognized by society, but what kind of writers are recognized in today's society?

The answer is simple. As a writer who wins a literary award, as long as you are on a certain literary award list, you can have a higher social status. As for how high this status is, it depends on the value of the literary award.

As luck would have it, the status of the New Creation Literature Award cannot be said to be low, it can only be said to be second only to those nominated awards named after writers. Winning the New Creation Literature Award basically means that this person is the strongest among the new generation of writers this year, and it also means that this person will become a strong contender for the next Akutagawa Ryunosuke Prize and Naoki Prize.

If, he meant if.

If the Wakaba family produced a winner of the Akutagawa Ryunosuke Prize and the Naoki Prize, then...

"Lu Li, no, Teacher Lu, I want to toast you!"

Facing a winner of a literature award, Ruo Ye could tell the difference. No matter what Lu Li did before, he had to call Lu Li "teacher" now.

"Cough cough..."

"Um, Mr. Ruoye, you may have misunderstood."

Looking at Ruoye's expression, Lu Li quickly denied: "This shouldn't be me."

"what?!"

Ruoye was stunned: "Isn't this you?"

"should……"

Lu Li nodded.

"I did submit a manuscript to the library, but... I don't think this is me."

"what?"

Seeing Ruoye's bewildered expression, Lu Li quickly explained: "It's like this, Mr. Ruoye, I submitted the article under a pen name, and the title isn't mine, so I think it's probably someone with the same name."

"you sure?!"

Hearing Lu Li say this, Ruoye widened her eyes.

He didn't believe it. How could it be such a coincidence?

"I'm sure. I'm not afraid of you knowing that this is actually my first time submitting a work, so I didn't actually submit a title. So even though this title does sound like it fits the content of my submission, I don't think it's me..."
