System: Master Your Life

Chapter 23: Unfamiliar with the moon calling it a white jade plate? The charm of Chi Linyue! _3


"I see this book has a lot of rewards, how much can you get?"

Chi Linyue asked casually, as she had actually been following this book all along.

On one hand, she really liked the story Xu Lin wrote.

On the other hand, watching Xu Lin grow was quite interesting for Chi Linyue.

A nurturing type?

Yes, Chi Linyue had that kind of feeling.

"The website takes half, and I expect to get more than 600,000 next month."

Today was the 30th, another two days had passed, and the rewards had increased significantly.

Like the Alliance Leader, Silver Alliance, and even Golden Alliance, those are the minority, of course.

Many people just tip a few bucks, sometimes dozens or hundreds, but since the reader base is large, the tips have increased significantly over the past two days.

What Xu Lin said about netting more than 600,000 is definitely true.

This is purely from tips, and it's unclear what the situation will be once it's up for sale.

"More than 600,000 after deduction?"

Chi Linyue was quite surprised, "You haven't been writing this book for long, have you?"

Xu Lin looked calm: "Talent, I guess!"

"Impressive!"

Chi Linyue exclaimed, saying, "Don't think that I don't lack money, I actually got my start relying on my family. Like people say online, some are born in Rome, and I'm one of them, perhaps even in the city center. Like in my university class, my undergraduate major was finance, which heavily relies on background and resources. Some of my classmates are in banks, some in securities companies... basically all working hard for others. I had a male classmate who often drank with various clients to secure deposits, and one night last year, he had a sudden pancreatic inflammation and ended up in the ICU, almost lost his life... There was also a pretty female classmate who was very innocent during school but got involved in something she shouldn't have. She barely got out, and now her career is booming, but she seems dim now. As for those from ordinary backgrounds, they're faring much worse, repeatedly hitting walls, struggling, stuck, their edges worn smooth by pressure."

Xu Lin, after listening, thought for a moment and said only, "The world is full of different lives, and everyone has their destiny."

Xu Lin didn't know what else to say; at eighteen, he was unable to use his life experiences to understand too many complicated social reality issues.

"I just think it's impressive that at eighteen, you can already earn money with your abilities, much better than someone like me who relies on family!"

Chi Linyue had once thought that given her beauty, if she were born into a regular family, life would have been a lot harder.

Beauty is a scarce resource. If one could lower their standards and use their beauty for advancement, it would seemingly be quite easy. From ancient times to now, there are plenty of stories on the news about those who were caught using beauty for a meteoric rise.

But if sticking to one's principles, beauty can also become a huge stumbling block, making every step difficult.

Xu Lin simply said, "Let's not talk about this, it's pointless. Better to read my novel, thinking so much doesn't help anyway."

"You're quite optimistic!"

"That's just how I am; eat well, sleep well, be happy, and don't have any worries!"

Xu Lin wrote for two hours tonight, and Chi Linyue sat beside him watching for two hours.

There was an adult-themed chapter that was an unedited version, while the one to be posted would be edited.

Chi Linyue watched Xu Lin write from beside him.

Her face turned red, and she teased Xu Lin for being improper.

Xu Lin laughed, "This was specially written for you!"

Chi Linyue: "Improper!"

Weren't you engrossed while reading it too? Xu Lin didn't call her out.

In the past, Xu Lin had read those romance novels, just small books, and they were incredibly explicit, not something today's web novels can match. Today's web novels have to hint or stop at a suggestion, whereas back then, they barely refrained from mentioning the names of organs.

This uncensored version Xu Lin wrote was done in the old style, and with his writing skills, it was very engaging.

To the extent that Chi Linyue discreetly pressed her legs together.

But Xu Lin didn't notice, he was just deeply immersed in creating his work.

By around eleven, both of them went home separately to sleep.

The next morning, Xu Lin and Chi Linyue had breakfast together.

A little past eight, Xu Lin went to the gate of Jiangdu University to pick up Yu Xinyan, and Lei Haolong also arrived a bit later at the gate. The three of them met up there.

"Hey, did you get a perm?"

Xu Lin noticed Lei Haolong had a foil perm.

Lei Haolong flamboyantly shook his hair, "Don't you think it looks cool?"

"Cool my ass!"

"Damn! Xu Lin, you don't know shit!"

Lei Haolong didn't want to bother with such a friend, "Where's Yu Xinyan?"

"She's about to come out," Xu Lin said.

"Oh, Jiangdu University, the university I've always dreamed of attending!"

Lei Haolong looked up at the grand entrance, especially the four elegant characters written above, his blood boiling for a moment.

"My mom actually wants me to go to Jiangdu University for graduate school. My mom even said even students from third-tier colleges can go to Jiangdu University for graduate school, so as a student from a semi-key university, wouldn't it be easier for me to get into Jiangdu University's master's program?"

Lei Haolong said incredulously, "My mom must be crazy!"

Xu Lin casually replied, "Maybe you can actually make it in?"

"But I do want to go to grad school!"

Lei Haolong said passionately, "I want to be a university professor in the future!"

"Don't say that, I'm afraid you'll misguide students."

"Xu Lin, can't you say something encouraging?"

"Keep it up!"

"Damn it, that's so fake!"

Two minutes later, Yu Xinyan came out with her backpack.

Her outfit was plain, but the girl's natural beauty was undeniable, making her stand out.

As she approached, it was as if the whole world lit up.
