CHAPTER XV

After hearing such tragic sales figures, Wang gradually had no sleep.

32 copies, $10 each, multiplied by 4% royalties.

I made $12.8 on the first day of my first novel.

And without a supporting publicity offensive, this could still be the highest selling day for the novel "I Am the Archmage"?

This amount of money is not enough for even the round-trip bus fare!

He got up and stood by the window, looking at the homeless people snuggled up to each other downstairs, as if he saw himself after the community labor was over.

The time of the morning passed in this way in the state of the king's gradual confusion.

And in the afternoon of community work, he was even more absent.

As the congresswoman on the stage spoke impassionedly about ethnic integration, Wang's thoughts drifted to Chinatown.

In the United States, Sichuan cuisine is popular or Shandong cuisine is popular.

I don't know if there are apprentices there.

Is it tiring to be an apprentice?

No matter what, no matter how tired it is, it's better than writing a novel.

Because, writing novels can really lose money.

While he was thinking wildly, Wang gradually caught a glimpse of Lili, the sign-in officer standing on the far left of the podium.

Then, his attention was instantly focused.

Worst!

Just thinking about novels.

I forgot that I have to go to the sign-in officer's house to be a nanny tonight.

Writing a novel and losing money is at most mentally insulting.

As this free babysitter, you may have to put yourself in it all.

And at this moment, Lily also noticed that the king in the audience gradually looked at herself.

She was also nervous.

It seems that I have to satisfy the other party today.

Otherwise, who knows what will happen?

Suddenly, the applause in their ears made Wang Yan and Lily both shocked.

Today's community labor is over, so is the evening date about to begin?

Wang gradually was doing mental construction for what was going to happen tonight, when he felt that someone was coming to him.

He looked up and saw Lily whispering expressionlessly, "It's still eight o'clock, remember, don't be late." ”

Then, without looking back, he turned and left.

And Wang gradually stood in place and thought about it for a while, and decided to go home to take a shower and change clothes.

Just treat your opponent with respect.

Two hours later, outside the door of a certain apartment in Brooklyn.

Wang gradually wore a white T-shirt and jeans, with a struggling expression.

In the apartment, Lily had just changed into a black tight hip skirt, mesh stockings, and 10-centimeter high heels.

She stood in front of the mirror, looked at herself in a 100% state in the mirror, and whispered to herself.

"Lily, you can!"

"Even little Jean has been sent to the scumbag, you can use all your strength to fascinate that little boy. ”

"He won't go and report him until he is 18 years old. ”

At this moment, the electronic doorbell rang.

Wang gradually stood outside the door, feeling his legs and stomach tremble a little.

I'm not a chick myself.

How can you be so nervous?

The sound of high-heeled shoes "clicking" came from inside the door, as if knocking on his heart.

Then, a snow-white pretty face poked out of the door.

When Wang gradually saw it, he was slightly stunned.

The sign-in officer is wearing what a lot of makeup, and even the freckles on his face are completely covered by foundation.

The feminine dress made Wang gradually frightened.

The sign-in officer doesn't take out the steel wool ball from his back, does he?

He's been working on it.

Suddenly, a crisp female voice interrupted Wang Yan's reverie.

"Come in. Lily said.

"Oh, oh. Wang gradually replied with a slight stammer.

"Isn't Little Jean here?" he tried to make the atmosphere less awkward.

"Well, I sent it to my ex-husband. Lily replied, "Would you like a drink?"

"You look nervous. ”

"It's fine. Wang gradually felt that his underwear was soaked with sweat, "It's okay to take a sip of wine." ”

Lily walked with a catwalk to the kitchen.

In a few moments, she staggered back from side to side, with two goblets and a bottle of wine in her hand.

Wang gradually took the bottle, opened it, and poured it into two goblets each.

Lily picked up a goblet and shook it gently.

She looked at the reddish liquid in the wine glass and asked as if she didn't care, "How many days do you have left?"

"There are 37 days left. Wang gradually replied.

Lily was sure in her heart, and suddenly smiled.

And Wang gradually looked at the dim light, a gorgeous young woman looked at herself like this and smiled, and also felt her heart swaying.

Lily sat down beside Wang Jian with a wine glass, and her long legs wrapped in stockings slowly approached.

And Wang Yan's body trembled slightly, and he turned his head to look at this woman who was thirteen years older than himself.

At this point, the air in the room seemed to freeze.

Lily poured the wine into her mouth, and a little liquid came out of the corner of her mouth.

Then, she took Wang Jian's fingers and gently wiped the wine from the corner of her mouth.

Then, gently shove the finger into your mouth.

And Wang Yan's breathing became heavier and heavier, and suddenly he pressed Lily against the sofa with both arms.

Following.

Wang gradually opened his eyes and looked at the sign-in officer beside him.

I saw that the other party's eyes also widened and looked back.

Neither of them spoke, and then...

So, half an hour later.

"When working in the community, don't have close contact with me. Lily changed back into her blue uniform, "You can't even keep your eyes on me." ”

"If, I mean if," she continued, "you can ask me, do you need a babysitter, get it?"

And Wang Jian was also like a primary school student, sitting on the sofa, watching the sign-in officer talk about various precautions like a teacher's lecture.

Anyway, it has been several times, and Wang gradually has already given up on himself.

When the community labor is over, think about how to break off the relationship.

It's just that he didn't expect that Lily thought so too.

It was only after the king repeated Lily's instructions to the other party that he was allowed to leave the apartment and return home.

And Wang gradually didn't know if he had finished venting his pressure, and he didn't even care so much about the novel.

But nine times out of ten, life was unsatisfactory, and just when he was watching TV with a calm mind, the phone rang suddenly.

Wang gradually picked up the phone, only to hear Al's voice on the other end of the phone.

"It's over, it's all over. "I'll just say we shouldn't have come to Los Angeles for the first battle." ”

"Right now, the rappers on the East and West Coasts are battling. Even the Blood Gang won't support us in Los Angeles. He lamented loudly.

"No, what the hell is going on?" Wang gradually looked confused.

"Look at the CNN news. "Hopefully it doesn't affect your new book release." ”

With that, he hung up the phone.

Only Wang gradually looked confused.
