Su Wen and Zhou Yan had a thorough discussion about the manuscript fee, collaboration terms, and the payment schedule. Su Wen was clear and logical, and her thoughts were meticulous. She could even lead Zhou Yan’s thoughts effortlessly in negotiations. What was even more commendable was her candid attitude, she didn’t nitpick or make extravagant demands.

In the end, they reached an agreement on a profit-sharing ratio that satisfied both parties and proceeded to sign the contract. Throughout the negotiations, Zhou Yan had suggested more than once that Su Wen’s future books should be published in the Spring Breeze Publishing House, but Su Wen rejected her.

She only indicated that she would prioritize future collaborations and that she wasn’t a professional writer, just an amateur. Whether she would continue in the future remained uncertain.

This being their first contract and considering that Zhou Yan had personally come to help her, she was willing to make concessions. However, she couldn’t bind herself solely based on this. They would need to choose and evaluate each other during their future collaboration.

Zhou Yan did not believe a single word that Su Wen said about her being an amateur. She firmly believed that Su Wen was a gifted writer.

Su Wen snickered and did not explain further.

Seeing that it was time for dinner, Su Wen invited Zhou Yan to have a meal at her place. However, Zhou Yan came over this time with a chauffeur. The car was parked at the intersection outside Trinity village. As she did not want to make a scene, she did not let the chauffeur drive the car over. After arriving at the address, she got out of the car and came over herself.

Since that was the case, Su Wen did not insist on her staying. She was just being polite.

“Alright, don’t bother sending me off. If you ever visit the Province, remember to visit me at the publishing house. Feel free to call me anytime if you need anything.” Zhou Yan refused Su Wen’s offer of a ride at the village entrance, waved goodbye, and started to walk away. However, halfway there, she suddenly stopped.

“Oh right, let me ask you something.”

“Please speak.” This was her God of Fortune, her business partner. Su Wen was very patient. Look at Madam Zhou. She had an elegant temperament and was the boss and chief editor of the publishing house. However, she did not put on any airs and was very easy to get along with.

Unlike a certain someone really hard to please but happened to be her most significant support and benefactor. She had to serve him.

For the first time ever, Zhou Yan felt a little embarrassed. ” Do you have a boyfriend?” Su Wen was only in her twenties. Most people in the city were unmarried at this age, but this was not necessarily the case in the countryside. Moreover, she was so beautiful. There must be many people pursuing her.

Zhou Yan asked with a glimmer of hope.

Su Wen laughed in surprise. “I got married last year.”

“Oh! That’s a pity.” Zhou Yan looked disappointed and didn’t want to mention that she had considered having Su Wen as her daughter-in-law. Instead, she casually made up an excuse, “Well, you see, I have a friend, and her son is exceptionally talented, around your age, just turned twenty this year, and has a handsome appearance. He comes from a well-off family. There won’t be any mother-in-law problems in the future, and his family was easy to get along with. ”

Eh? Now that she said that, her family’s conditions were really impossible to find. Such great conditions had been squandered by the little rascal. As a result, all their close friends, acquaintances, and even former classmates kept their distance upon hearing the name Xu Xiaoxiao.

No one dared to marry their daughter over.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She wanted nothing more than to immediately beat up that rascal.

“Such good conditions, I’m afraid we rural people might find it hard to match,” Su Wen said politely.

“How could that be?” Zhou Yan did not agree at all. “Auntie thinks highly of you. You’re good-looking and a talented writer. Whoever marries you will be burning incense for eight lifetimes.” She genuinely liked Su Wen. She was stunned by this girl at first sight.

At first glance, she thought that this beauty could travel through time and slowly walk towards her. She was a woman in her forties, and she was already tempted, let alone a man..
