"Didn't you write a novel?"

"It's a good start."

"Long story?"

"The middle part."

"Um?"

Originally it was just a casual question, but when he heard the word "Part 2", Zhang Dening's eyes narrowed and he quickly grabbed Lin Chaoyang with a flattering smile on his face.

"The middle part? The middle part is good. How many words have you written?"

"I didn't write many words."

Zhang Dening killed two birds with one stone by calling Li Qingquan. Not only did he find someone to reimburse the expenses, but it also showed how much "Yanjing Literature" valued Lin Chaoyang.

While the three of them were eating, Li Qingquan asked about Lin Chaoyang's novel.

Lin Chaoyang recounted what happened at Yanying Factory. After hearing this, Li Qingquan sighed: "It's really hard to judge right from wrong in this kind of thing. Everyone's concepts and starting points are different."

"I'm not trying to distinguish right from wrong. The diplomatic relations between our two countries are good now, but that doesn't mean they will be good in the future.

There has never been any emotion between countries, only interests are the most fundamental.

I just want to remind the Chinese people not to be fooled by the Japanese tricks. How can enemies with generations of blood feud become friends? A short honeymoon is just a combination of interests.

But there are some people in our cultural circles, and you can’t tell whether they are naive or flirtatious..."
