Chapter 9: Father and Son join forces
"Then there was a child in the Valley of the Wicked, and everyone called him 'Little Fish,' because he was indeed a little fish that slipped through the net."
Lin Xi leaned on the back of the sofa with his hands folded, closed his eyes, and had already "recited" the story of "The Peerless Twins" to the seventh chapter, while Lin Shu, who was writing on the side, had already gradually turned from shock to numbness at the beginning.
If one or two chapters can still be explained by Lin Xi's reason that he memorized it in advance, then now Lin Xi has retold the content of four chapters in one go, sprinkled with more than 10,000 words, without the slightest stagnation in between, except that this story is really what Lin Xi has in mind, Lin Shu can no longer find anyone else who can explain this qiē that has happened in the past three hours or so.
Even Lin Shu himself was a little unbelievable, but his sore wrist and the more than ten pages of manuscript paper placed in front of him clearly told Lin Shu that this was not a dream.
When Lin Shu was stunned, he didn't know that Lin Xi had secretly opened his eyes and glanced over here.
"Chapter 8, the Black One Who Nears Ink!"
The sudden sound startled Lin Shu in contemplation, and before Lin Xi could continue reading, Lin Shu had already pushed away the chair and stood up.
"Alright, alright, that's all for today, and the rest for tomorrow."
In order to take care of Lin Shu's handwriting speed, Lin Xi deliberately slowed down his speech speed for more than three hours, Lin Shu was tired of writing, and in fact, Lin Xi was not easy to read.
Lin Shu announced a "strike", and Lin Xi had no choice but to get up from the sofa with a yawn, ready to go back to the room to continue to catch up on sleep.
"Wait, I didn't tell you why you left!"
Lin Xi turned his head, his face full of doubts.
"Anything else?"
"How long have you been thinking about this story?" Lin Shu had too many questions in his heart, and he was ready to take this opportunity to have a good chat with Lin Xi.
"It's probably more than half a year......" Lin Xi's tone of reply was a little uncertain, he was mainly unsure of Lin Shu's intention to ask, but this expression fell in Lin Shu's eyes, but it turned out that Lin Xi himself couldn't remember when he had this story idea, which means that this story should have been brewing in Lin Xi's mind for a long time, otherwise Lin Xi's story idea would not be so clear.
Thinking of this, Lin Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Now it is certain that "The Peerless Double Pride" was indeed written by Lin Xi himself, although Lin Xi's "appearance of the chapter" just now really shocked Lin Shu, but when he thought of Lin Xi's future achievements, Lin Shu, as a father, couldn't help but get excited.
"I've thought about it before, and I still don't agree with publishing this novel under my name...... Don't be in a hurry to refute first, listen to what I have to say, I'm not doing this for myself, but for you! Lin Shu stared at Lin Xi with bright eyes: "I didn't know that you had such a great talent for writing novels, of course, this is also to blame me, since I was a child, I only wanted to provide you with a good living condition, but I didn't seriously care about what you liked, as a father I am a failure, but since you are so talented in writing novels, I can't watch you take a detour, although publishing this novel in my name can see the results immediately, but compared to this, I hope that my son can be better than the blue, so that even if I fail in this life, I can proudly tell others that my greatest achievement in this life is to raise a good son! ”
The strong love in Lin Shu's eyes made Lin Xi, who was a human being in two lives, couldn't help but be moved, but it was a pity that the words that came out of his mouth next destroyed this atmosphere of fatherly love and son's love.
"Everyone else is fighting Lao Tzu, but when you come to you, you have become a son......"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Shu couldn't listen anymore, and raised his hand to fight.
Lin Xi hurriedly raised his hand in front of him and said, "Don't get excited, I was just joking, but then again, in fact, I have the same idea as you, if I have a famous and rich father, I can comfortably be a second ancestor, and this kind of day is what I want to pursue." ”
"Fart!" Lin Shu was very angry by this, but there was not much blame in his tone.
"I used to think about this story in my head, and if it weren't for these recent events at home, I probably wouldn't have thought of writing it, but I really don't like writing novels, and I don't plan to put it on my future development direction."
Lin Xi told Lin Shu the truth, but he didn't expect it to have the opposite effect.
Lin Shu snorted dissatisfiedly: "Who can know what they are going to do in the future from the beginning?" Since you have a talent for writing novels, then you should concentrate on developing on it, you are so ambitious at a young age, do you think you are a fairy? ”
Lin Xi was speechless for a while, he couldn't tell Lin Shu, he had memories of the next thirty years in his mind, and he was actually almost like an immortal in this time and space.
"Let's put it this way, I don't think there's much future in writing novels." Seeing that Lin Shu was about to teach himself a lesson, Lin Xi hurriedly said: "Take Jin Yong as an example, he should be regarded as a very good one among the literati, but a slightly famous businessman in Hong Kong can surpass him casually. ”
Hearing this, Lin Shu completely reacted, what Lin Xi just said was not "future" but "money".
"So you want to go into business in the future?" Although it is a pity, Lin Shu's attitude on this issue is still very tolerant, after all, he can't make decisions for his son on how to go in the future.
Lin Xi replied solemnly: "It can't be called business, it should be called investment in the cultural and entertainment industry." ”
"Just you?" Lin Shu couldn't help laughing, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I won't discourage you from being motivated, and when you really get in touch with these industries in the future, you will know that the curves and curves here are not as simple as you think." ”
Lin Xi didn't want to get too entangled with Lin Shu on this issue, so he brought the topic back to the topic.
"Anyway, I really don't have much interest in writing novels, and I'm only sixteen years old now, the so-called Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and it may not be a good thing to be famous too early, it's better to hide under the big tree of Lao Dou and live comfortably."
Lin Xi's lazy answer made Lin Shu a little helpless, but he still refused to agree to sign "The Peerless Twins".
In desperation, Lin Xi had no choice but to retreat: "If you can't do it, just sign the names of me and you, just say that this novel is jointly created by our father and son, although this will cause some controversy, but it is relatively more reasonable, which not only explains the inconsistency between the style of this novel and your previous works, but also can silence those who make a fuss about my age." ”
These words made Lin Shu's heart feel much more comfortable, and at the same time, he felt that this was indeed a good idea to have the best of both worlds.
"Okay, just do as you say!"
