Sonoko didn't call to negotiate a contract with Utaha.
She wanted to tell Utaha about the [Love Metronome] sale.
Due to the end of the harem, many people abandoned the novel, but even more chose to accept it.
It can only be said that the character Utaha is portrayed too perfectly, and otaku naturally enjoy seeing their favorite characters achieve good results.
The comments were also very pleasant, and the vulgar partisan incident did not occur.
"I was still worried before, but it turns out Utaha, you can control people's hearts better than me." Sonoko sighed.
As an editor, the most important thing is to analyze the market and understand the orientation of people's interests, and then give suggestions to authors.
When Utaha showed her last volume earlier, she was worried that such an ending would be hosed to death by fans.
It turned out that she was completely unfounded.
"In short, [Love Metronome] has come to the perfect conclusion. I want to ask about your next book," Sonoko said with a sigh of relief.
It is good news for authors and editors that a book can end, or end on a high note.
"Hmm... Let me think about it." Utaha should change her tune.
Previously, she thought that after writing this ending, what was waiting for her was the abuse of readers, and she was even prepared to quit the author's circle.
In the end, God played a big joke on her.
Writing is her favorite profession, and her future wish is also a certain famous university with its literature club.
She wouldn't want to stop at this point if she could.
"Okay, I will wait for your news." Sonoko nodded.
It's natural for an author who has just finished a book to want to take a break.
"By the way, there's a reception for the company author tonight, would you like to attend?" suddenly Sonoko asked.
Utaha was dumbfounded, because she was still a high school student, she had always outright rejected such activities in the past.
"I do not..."
Suddenly, she thought of something, and her eyes fell on Ryuji.
"I'm leaving tonight." Utaha agrees.
"Hey, what a surprise, you actually agree." Sonoko said unexpectedly.
Originally, she had only mentioned it casually.
"That has nothing to do with you," Utaha said coolly, "I remember acceptance like this can bring people."
"Correct. Are you going to bring someone here? Who's that? Could it be a boyfriend…"
Before Sonoko could finish her sentence, Utaha quickly hung up.
The old woman left over from the social animal was attracted by this kind of gossip… Utaha slandered her editor in her heart.
"What did your editor say?" Ryuji asked Utaha with a smile.
Utaha stared at Ryuji, her hands brushing the hair beside her ears, and her movements were charming.
"Is this also in your calculations?"
"Why did you suddenly start playing jojo memes!" Ryuji complained.
What will happen if two people who like jojo get together?
"This is not a calculation. The initial intention should be to become an otaku, and trust you, Utaha," Ryuji said.
Utaha blushed slightly, turned her head away and didn't dare to look at Ryuji.
"Tonight, accompany me to the reception..."
"This..." Ryuji was a bit embarrassed, he didn't really like that kind of event.
"If you don't go, I don't care if someone greets me at the reception," Utaha said lightly.
With Utaha's beauty, she would surely dazzle like a pearl at a casual reception.
Ryuji's face tightened.
"I will go!"
...
In the afternoon, Ryuji and Utaha took a taxi to the reception area.
The Fujikawa Shoten Company has a lot of money and money to rent floors of star hotels to entertain authors.
Utaha is so dazzling tonight. She was wearing an evening dress, looking elegant and luxurious, her tall figure not at all like that of a high school student.
The hem of the dress was slightly open, and ankles could be seen barely through it.
Originally, she wanted to choose a low-chested dress, even though she managed to afford it, but when she came, Ryuji forced her to change into a 'conservative' dress that covered her chest tightly.
In Ryuji's words, the clothes could only be worn for him to see.
The corner of Utaha's mouth rose slightly, she didn't like this arrogant attitude.
When they reached the reception door, they handed over the invitations sent by Sonoko, and the two entered the reception.
As soon as they entered the arena, Utaha and Ryuji became the center of the audience's attention.
Because they are too young.
Even though more and more authors are being author by high school students, they are still a minority in the writing group.
Not everyone can finish writing a novel under the pressure of studying in high school.
