As Jiang Wan, a hit author on Tomato Novel earning a million a year, my biggest headache is being nagged to get married until I want to hit someone with my keyboard.
To get my mother off my back, I casually picked the “newbie” partner I was linked with in a game and brought him along to keep up appearances.
“He’s gentle, considerate, and clingy. No complaints, except that he’s a little poor.”
Then one day, I used a glitch-named smurf account to stomp some noobs and got matched with the number-one jungler on the server.
The other player lazily opened his mic. “I hear… my girlfriend thinks I’m poor?”
That voice… Why did it sound exactly like the bigshot at the publishing house I stood up?!
Later, he cornered me backstage at an awards ceremony, slowly twirling the tip of the fountain pen I used to write contracts between his fingers.
“Ms. Jiang, let’s talk about how you can make it up to me for playing with my feelings. Maybe we can settle it with royalties?”
