Chapter 57 Violet's Greatness Lies in Her Tolerance
Chapter 57 Violet's Greatness Lies in Her Tolerance
Haruno Daiken smiled at Touma Kazuko and said:
"Nanada-sensei, who recently signed with me, has ideas for a new work, and I'm currently working with Natsume-sensei. I wonder if Ms. Touma would be interested in getting to know Nanada-sensei?"
His intention was to introduce his writing resources to Touma Kazuko, allowing her to quickly accumulate achievements.
Faced with the olive branch extended by Haruno Daiken, Touma Kazuko smiled politely and shook her head in refusal.
"No need, Senior Haruno. I'm just a new editor. Famous authors like Nanada-sensei probably wouldn't even look down on me. I'll just keep taking it one step at a time."
"Isn't it interesting for new writers and new editors to grow together?"
Touma Kazuko's refusal caused Haruno Daiken's face to stiffen.
"But being a new editor is tough, Ms. Touma. I really want to help you. How about we have dinner together tonight, and I'll get in touch with Ms. Nanada for you?"
"No need, thank you for your kindness, Senior Yuanye. I still have to continue with my work. Please make yourself at home."
"Okay, then I won't bother you anymore, but if you change your mind, feel free to contact me."
Haruno Daiken left after saying just one sentence.
As Touma Kazuko watched the man's retreating figure, she couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"So annoying, like a male dog in heat."
Harano Daiken is the son of the company's editor-in-chief. Thanks to his father's resources, Harano Daiken was able to collaborate with many well-known writers.
As a result, Haruno Daiken got carried away and slept with several new female editors, including Touma Kazuko.
Touma Kazuko naturally kept her distance from men who were philanderers and had impure motives.
There's no such thing as a free lunch. Although being a new editor is tough, she will take it one step at a time.
Shaking her head, Touma Kazuko continued reading the manuscript.
After discarding 10 bad manuscripts in a row, she finally found a good one.
This manuscript is written in a skillful style, clearly the work of a veteran writer.
And since it was a campus romance theme suitable for the company, Touma Kazuko quickly became engrossed in it.
However, as the story unfolded, Touma Kazuko couldn't help but cover her ample chest, her brows furrowing deeply.
Upon seeing the ending, I couldn't help but slam the manuscript onto the table!
"What kind of rubbish is this? It gave me a stomachache! Why is the romance between the male and female leads so convoluted?"
Touma Kazuko looked at the contributor's pen name on the manuscript with a resentful expression.
"February Rain? The name sounds quite poetic, but the books he writes are stomach-churning. I'd love to send him a razor blade!"
Touma Kazuko muttered to herself, but the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up in a smile.
Although this anime, "How to Raise a Boring Boyfriend is Problematic", is stomach-churning.
Although the plot was quite convoluted for her, the romance between the black-stockinged senior and the male lead was exceptionally sweet.
However, in the ending, the author of "February Rain" wrote that the senior student and the male protagonist, Shinaga Makoto, were half-siblings.
This development greatly surprised Touma and his daughter.
They had just confirmed their relationship when they realized they couldn't be together. While they were hesitant and in great pain, the female lead got into a car accident and lost her memory, forgetting the male lead.
This is only the first volume. What kind of twists and turns will the second volume bring?
Moreover, the storyline involving the other female lead's childhood sweetheart has not yet unfolded.
Touma Kazuko carefully put the manuscript into her bag, saved "February Rain" teacher's phone number on her phone, and then continued reading the manuscript with satisfaction.
.........
"February Rain" is the pen name of Ruyue Yulu.
He originally wanted to choose a more dramatic name, like "Demon King" or something.
But after asking for Sumireko's opinion, Sumireko suggested that it should be named "February Rain and Dew".
"Kisaragi" also means "February".
In the end, Ruyue Yulu deleted one character and named it "February Rain".
The afternoon club activities have ended.
The students gradually left the school.
After saying goodbye to Sumire, Kisaragi Uroku also saw Sunflower off before returning home.
Just as he was about to take a shower, his phone suddenly rang. He immediately took it out and answered it.
"Excuse me, is this Ms. Futatsume? I'm Touma Kazuko, an editor at Shinazugawa Bunko. I'd like to discuss your submission with you in person. Are you free tomorrow?"
"Of course I'm free, Ms. Touma. How about we meet tomorrow afternoon?"
"Okay, it's settled then. We'll meet at that Angel Heartbeat Cafe."
"it is good."
After hanging up the phone, Ruyue Yulu smiled slightly.
The manuscript has passed the review; the next step is to sign the contract.
Moreover, the voice of Ms. Touma Kazuko on the phone was very pleasant; she was definitely a great beauty.
He couldn't help but look forward to meeting the editor tomorrow.
However, the name Touma Kazuko felt strange to him.
When he thought of the surname "Touma", another name popped into his mind.
"Touma Kazusa" is a female protagonist in a certain anime.
It seems that there is no such work as "White Album" in this world. Perhaps he could copy the plot and use it as the next book, or in the second volume.
It's that time of year again for white albums.
After putting down her phone, Ruyue Yulu took a shower before returning to her room.
I had just been lying in bed playing on my phone for a while when Sumireko Sanshokuin sent me a message.
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "Hi, Raindrop-kun, are you there?"
Asuka Rain: "Yeah, I just finished showering and am lying in bed playing on my phone. By the way, I have some good news for you. My manuscript was approved, and the editor from Fushigawa Company invited me to discuss signing a contract tomorrow."
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "Oh, really? Congratulations, Ayuri-kun! You've finally taken your first step towards becoming a light novel master!"
Asuka Rain: "Words of congratulations are too perfunctory, Sumire, I need encouragement!"
Upon seeing this sentence, Sumireko Sanshokuin, who was taking a bath, couldn't help but blush.
She was quite happy that Rain Dew was asking her for a reward.
"Alright, what does Rain Dew want? Tell me!"
Kisaragi Rain: "I want to see Sumireko's stunning beauty, not that flat-chested girl with braids and glasses!"
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "Pah! Pervert!"
Asuka Rain: "How is wanting to see my girlfriend's truly beautiful appearance considered being a pervert?"
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "Girlfriend?"
Asmoon Dew: "What else? Don't you want to be my girlfriend?"
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "Ugh, I never said I wouldn't be your girlfriend. You want encouragement, huh? Wait until tomorrow."
Kisaragi Rain: "I'll be looking forward to it! But Sumireko, weren't you going a bit too far today? I've already quit the student council, and you're making me go back to be your slave."
His words carried a hint of condemnation.
Sumireko Sanshokuin smiled and immediately replied, "Isn't it all so you can get along well with the beautiful student council president? Ame-kun, I don't want you to regret this."
"Besides, are you really willing to break up with such a beautiful senior like Akizakura?"
Kisaragi Rain: "For me, all I need is Sumire!"
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "I'm happy that you said that, but no, I prefer Ayuru-kun's greedy side."
Ruyue Yulu: "Aren't you afraid I'll become a womanizing scumbag?"
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "I'm confident in myself. A mere showerhead is a piece of cake for me!"
Asuka Rain: "You're so arrogant!"
Sanshokuin Sumireko: "Of course! She's very tolerant and has a broad mind. You can't hold me with one hand."
Kisaragi Yuru's lips twitched slightly.
Is this woman making lewd jokes to flirt with him?
Asuka Rain: "Then I'll use both hands to grab it."
Sumireko Sanshokuin: "You perverted Ame-rou! I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm so embarrassed!"
Like Moonlit Dew: "..."
You still know what shame is?
And who is the big pervert?!
He felt strange when he heard this nickname, as if more girls would call him "Big Pervert Rain Dew" in the future.
Probably not.
I'm a respectable man!
