Therefore, as the saying goes: "Three thousand years of reading history, it's all about fame and fortune; ninety thousand miles seeking truth, ultimately it's about poetry, wine, and the fields."

Those who truly see through things are the so-called sages, but among the vast majority, they are ultimately few.

At this moment, Toutuo glanced at himself in the mirror and ruffled his messy hair.

"I'm so handsome, should I show off a bit!"

Toutuo indeed looks quite handsome, at a level of minor attractiveness, just that he spends all day in front of the computer, rarely goes out, so his complexion isn't great, like he's been exhausted by a group of women.

"Damn it!"

"I want to get that great author's contract too!"

"I want to show myself off too!"

Toutuo immediately messaged Xu Lin: "Master, I will definitely get that great author's contract by the end of the year! Fight.jpg"

Instant feedback: "Wishing you become a legend!"

Toutuo: "Master, I definitely will! Fight.jpg×3"

Xu Lin didn't reply further, switching over to WeChat.

Ranzhi sent quite a few messages again.

Ranzhi was congratulating Xu Lin for surpassing one million favorites with this book.

The million favorites were reached early this morning, in the online literature scene, this is an extraordinary level for a new book, and since it's a paid site, having your new book achieve one million favorites while still on an upward trend is quite unlike those free sites where traffic is cheap and abundant, as long as the site supports you, you're the lucky one.

Ranzhi asked: "Mr. Xu, when do you plan to launch this book?"

Xu Lin: "What are the conditions for launching?"

Ranzhi: "Our launch conditions are set for regular books, but for a book with your achievements, you can launch anytime! Grin.jpg"

Ranzhi: "When the time comes, this book will explode in popularity, becoming a phenomenal bestseller, and now already shows signs of becoming a phenomenal bestseller! Congratulations in advance to Mr. Xu for becoming famous all over the internet!"

Xu Lin thought for a moment, "Let's launch it during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I'll update a few more free chapters."

This book has already reached one hundred thousand words now, ignoring the remaining two thousand words, and today's ten thousand words haven't been updated yet.

Ranzhi: "Looking forward to it!"

Then, Xu Lin clicked on the "Great Authors' Wellness Group."

Today, many people @Xu Lin, as everyone knows lately Xu Lin's book has soared in popularity, reaching new heights. Last night it surpassed one million favorites, and the group was in uproar as if witnessing a truly top-tier figure rising.

Xu Lin came in and sent out a meme of Brother Chicken dribbling the ball.

Seeing Xu Lin pop up made the lively group even more lively.

"Welcoming the ultimate big shot!"

"The real boss is here!"

"Congratulations to the giant for surpassing one million favorites! Kneeling in admiration!"

"With this book, the giant's manuscript fee might even be enough to buy a house in a big city outright, and I think the copyright value of this book should also be quite high, the results are terrifying!"

Suddenly, there were hundreds of messages.

Xu Lin glanced at the messages and replied: "Why's everyone flattering me? Can anyone be more genuine?"

"Giant, you're a real god on earth; if I don't flatter you, I'd be uneasy!"

"Giant, I'm not really flattering, I'm sincere!"

"Me too!"

Seeing the entire group praising him, though Xu Lin was only eighteen, he wasn't like those ordinary people who haven't experienced much and get carried away. Xu Lin's dad used to take him to various banquets to train him, so Xu Lin has encountered many characters, which has shaped his character. Even when being praised now, Xu Lin remained quite calm.

Xu Lin: "Stop flattering, let's get serious. Is there anything juicy?"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

"Giant, didn't expect you to be such a person? Bad smile.jpg"

"Pictures are coming!"

"Giant, what do you think of this?"

"Giant, I'm a male diva, do you like me?"

Soon, a pile of picture sets was sent, but nothing genuinely inappropriate, just tantalizing material.

Xu Lin chatted with these guys for over ten minutes, later someone sent pictures of foreign beauties, claiming they were from the Middle East, and then discussed how chaotic the Middle East is and how women there suffer.

So the group conversation's focus shifted to Middle Eastern situation and world affairs.

A bunch of men chatting, what can they discuss? Usually, it's about titillating topics, and ultimately, politics, inevitably.

Xu Lin said: "Guys, keep chatting, I need to get busy."

"Giant, don't go!"

"Giant, last time I heard Chengfeng said you just started university?"

"Giant, is it true you only just entered university?"

Those discussing politics stopped, curious to see Xu Lin's response. Although Wu Chengfeng said Xu Lin just started university, many had found it hard to believe because Xu Lin's top-tier writing skills unnerved many, knowing that for many, it took years, even a decade, to reach this level, enduring numerous hardships that words can't fully express.

"Yes, I'm attending university."

Xu Lin confirmed.

"Which university, giant? I'm also attending university, can we meet?"

"Jiangdu University of Finance and Economics, but let's skip the meet-up, I'm socially anxious."

After sending this message, Xu Lin went offline.

"Jiangdu University of Finance and Economics, that's a top key university right?"

"Awesome! The giant is also a high-achiever from a key university!"

"It's incredible; he's not only a high-achiever from a key university but also writes such great books!"

Everyone was shocked.

In the online literature circle, people from key universities writing books are almost nonexistent, very rare, mostly amateur attempts, because this industry generally isn't prestigious, and people from key universities often enter various industries and fields to shine, achieve personal value and life goals, how could they waste time on online literature?
