The good thing about Zhu ngng was that, unlike Chu Ge and Qiu Wuji, who were typical hobodies, she was a normie who was familiar with the surroundings and couldn’t be bothered with comparing prices endlessly. Even before Old Zhu’s plane landed, she had already rented a studio space and several employee dormitories.
If Chu Ge were to do it himself, it would take at least three to five days to get it done. For Zhu ngng, it didn’t even take an hour, and the studio was ready, complete with furnishings and office supplies.
As soon as Old Zhu arrived with a group, he took Qiu Wuji straight to the governnt service center. They efficiently completed all the necessary paperwork, turning the studio over. Qiu Wuji looked at the studio space, not too big or too small, and at the employees who had already started arranging their desks. She still seed a bit dazed.
Is this my company…
A company in modern tis… I’m the legitimate legal representative…
Although the company was nad “Chu Tian Wuji Animation Studio,” its registered status was a “limited liability company.” It wasn’t a sole proprietorship but a joint venture with Zhu ngng… Their scope of business involved comic and animation production, as well as taking on various customized character illustration commissions. It was all very official.
“This company should be called ‘Qiuqiu ngng Studio!'” Zhu ngng pouted. “I don’t know why Dad agreed to use the na ‘Chu Tian Wuji’ . It’s just the na of the book; does that an we won’t do anything else after completing one book…?”
Qiu Wuji smiled and hugged her shoulder. “Silly ngng, because ‘Chu Tian Wuji’ sounds more poetic. Qiuqiu ngng is just too cute. We’re grown-ups now; people will mock us…”
“Our na is set like this, even when you’re eighty, you’ll still be Qiuqiu, and I’ll still be ngng!”
Qiu Wuji couldn’t help but smile at the thought.
“Hey, but co to think of it, your husband is really good to you,” Zhu ngng said enviously, patting Qiu Wuji on the shoulder. “Seeing how well you get along, my springti heart is starting to sprout again…”
Qiu Wuji was puzzled. “Where do you see that we get along so well?”
“He’s putting in over 800,000 yuan for this studio. Right now, it’s just an advance from my dad. Once his copyright paynt cos in—oh, I heard it’s supposed to co on the 12th, right? At that ti, he’ll have to give it to my dad. The windfall hasn’t even ward up yet, and it’ll be mostly gone in an instant.”
Qiu Wuji was montarily confused. “Huh? So what? We’re in this venture together. It’s only right that he gives the money to your dad, isn’t it?”
Zhu ngng looked at her in surprise. “But he’s putting in the capital, and the company belongs to you. He doesn’t even have his na on it.”
Qiu Wuji finally realized and stamred, “Uh… is there a difference?”
“Of course, there is!” Zhu ngng acted like she was dealing with an alien. “You two are clearly not married, and your finances are not combined. Don’t you know? He’s treating you as his wife directly. What’s his is yours, without even batting an eye…”
Qiu Wuji was lost in thought. “Yes… not married…”
“Even most married couples rarely do this, let alone unmarried ones…” Zhu ngng thought of her own tragic marriage and was on the verge of turning into a sour lemon, “And you said it was his idea. You never thought about using your na before, it’s unbelievable…”
Qiu Wuji smiled as she looked out the window.
He never saw as separate from his family.
In fact, from the mont I arrived in this world, I guess he already considered his daughter.
“Ah, how did you manage to find such a good man? I’m so jealous…” Zhu ngng was getting upset.
Qiu Wuji smiled, “Actually, he found . I’m like a foster daughter to him.”
Zhu ngng: “…Should I toss myself into the trash heap? Is there a great man like this who can pick up?”
Qiu Wuji folded her arms, “You can give it a try.”
“Never mind, this is fate…” Zhu ngng sighed dramatically as she leaned on the windowsill.
“Um…” Qiu Wuji said apologetically. “ngng, could you please take care of the employees for a while? I have sothing to do…”
Zhu ngng turned to her with a puzzled look. “What could be more important than just opening the company? You haven’t even recognized the employees’ faces!”
“It’s already lunchti, and I need to go ho and make lunch for him.”
Zhu ngng; “Damn!”
On the other side, Chu Ge hadn’t written for two or three days. Initially, he felt a bit rusty, and he forgot everything about the plot he needed to write. He was searching for inspiration while looking at the outline, occasionally checking the chat group and not concentrating very well.
So, as they say, practice makes perfect, and it’s better not to scatter your energy on too many distractions.
Finally, he forced himself to start working, entering a state of focused concentration, and he gradually regained the feeling of being the unfeeling writing machine. At least he managed to complete the chapter for the morning.
He hadn’t missed an update, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Ge even found it strange that the smoothest writing ca when he completely imrsed himself in the world of the book. That was the true unfeeling writing machine, relying purely on instinct to write, not even knowing what he was writing about. However, the results turned out to be a perfect reproduction of the world’s plot, even better than the effects of his contemplation.
Maybe he should use it more…
I have a mature body now; which can write on it’s own… My soul should go and accompany Qiuqiu to see the magnificent world I created.
In a mont of distraction, while multitasking, Chu Ge caught a glimpse of Qiu Wuji practicing alone at the top of the mountain amidst the falling snow. She sat there like a celestial being, with swirling sword energy, radiating an otherworldly beauty. However, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of loneliness and heartache.
Qiu Wuji, who practiced alone at the peak of the world.
Qiuqiu, who was lively, cute, and full of vitality.
Two worlds, two completely different situations and mindsets for Qiu Wuji… Could it be that her “alternate personality” was becoming increasingly adorable as a response to the loneliness and heartache of her “main personality”?
At this mont, she was lively and cheerful here, but what was she thinking over there?
Just as he pondered this, the door clicked open, and Qiu Wuji returned.
Chu Ge greeted her in surprise, “You’re back so soon. I thought you might be eating out.”
“How busy could it be…” Qiu Wuji entered with bags of groceries. “Even if I’m busy, I can’t let my dear creator starve, right?”
Chu Ge took the bags from her. “Tsk, why are you suddenly so good… Wow, today’s al looks really sumptuous!”
“Hmph, when have I not been good?”
“During our sparring sessions.”
The couple entered the kitchen together, and Qiu Wuji leaned against the stove, glancing at him. “You dare to say that? Even during our sparring sessions, it always ends up being you kissing … If you want to talk about not being good, that evil woman in the book, she’s the one who really suffers after torturing you.”
Chu Ge chuckled. “The woman in the book isn’t evil. She just wants to integrate into the world faster, so she’s a bit strict.”
“Yes,” Qiu Wuji gazed at him tenderly. “Just like how you treat in this world. But you’re gentle, and I… I’m a bit harsh.”
“Why do you sound strange today?” Chu Ge hugged her. “It’s enough if this Qiuqiu is gentle with . As the master over there, respected by all, her actions naturally have so differences.”
Qiu Wuji tilted her head. “Are you enjoying it?”
“You’ve already called an ‘M’…”
“Why does it sound like you want to go there?”
“By the Huangpu River, as you said, that’s where we truly roam. The wuxia world in my writing, the free-spirited martial world in my heart.” Chu Ge kissed her forehead. “When our studio gets on track here, and we see the feedback from the comic release, everything is in order, we should go and explore the book’s world. There’s no snow in Nanjiang, but we can go see the snow there.”
When he ntioned snow, Qiu Wuji’ heart fluttered slightly.
Why would he ntion snow? Of course, it was because he saw the snow in the book and the lonely person within it.
Perhaps Chu Ge did indeed want to explore the world in the book, but it was certainly not the main reason. There might be a significant part of him that wanted to accompany her…
Qiu Wuji’s heart softened further but was accompanied by a hint of guilt.
Chu Ge had done everything he could on this side. What could she do on the other side to reciprocate?
Did he like the aloof sect leader with a cold expression high above?
In the world of book and the world outside, both Qiu Wuji gently bit their lips.
