Chapter 291
After the Marriage Cancellation, She Becomes a True Ancestor
?
291 You want to take a bath?
The sleeves of Zhou Xue âerâs white sweater were still stained with some soft black fur.
No matter how she looked at it, she was an extremely pure forest girl.
Lin Zhan was sizing her up, and she was also secretly sizing up Lin Zhan.
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment. Zhou Xue âer smiled shyly, â âYour watch looks good too.â
He complimented her earrings, and she complimented his watch.
It looked very natural.
Lin Zhan inadvertently glanced at his watch, â ah, cousin gave this to me for my birthday last year.
Patek Philipe was a limited edition watch that was auctioned last year. The final price was 4 million M yuan, which was more than 20 million Chinese dollars.
Zhou Xue âer stirred the coffee on her table without a change in her expression. âI heard from Auntie that youâre working under your cousin?â
Lin Zhan took a sip of his coffee. yes, but I donât have to work. I occasionally run errands for my cousin, but heâs very generous. My annual salary is about the same.
He stopped mid-sentence and smiled. âYouâre definitely not interested in these numbers, right? letâs talk about something that youâre interested in, Yingluo.â
Zhou Xue âer pursed her lips and smiled.
After that, the two of them chatted for more than half an hour, and the atmosphere was more relaxed and harmonious than when they first met.
The guests at the surrounding tables would cast curious glances at her from time to time. They pointed at Zhou Xue âer and whispered to each other, but no one knew what they were talking about.
It seemed that he was really a little famous.
Zhou Xue âerâs behavior was very casual, and she didnât seem to have any sense of superiority.
As it was about to end, Lin Zhan sent her an invitation, â my cousin and his fiancée came to City Z with us this time. We can hang out together when weâre free.
Zhou Xue âer nodded. your cousinâs so amazing. He should be in the Skynet, right? â
In the upper class of City Z, their knowledge of Skynet was much higher than that of the capital. When they asked if they had a Skynet account, it was like asking if they had a stable job. If E-Class access was equivalent to a civil servant, then S-Class access was equivalent to a President.
Although Lin Zhan had a good impression of Zhou Xue âer, he was still clear about the key issues.
Not to mention that his cousinâs authority was too high, even su yeâs s S level of authority could not be casually known by others.
He looked at Zhou Xue âer with a serious expression and reminded her, â Iâm not sure about that. If you have the chance to see my cousin in the future, donât ask him about this. He wonât be happy.
Zhou Xue âer paused, then tilted her head and stuck out her tongue. âIâm sorry.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Opposite them, Lin Zhan was paying the bill with the waiter. Zhou Xue âerâs phone on the table suddenly buzzed.
It was a message.
It came from an account with the name âMr. Luoâ.
She glanced at Lin Zhan quietly. Seeing that he wasnât looking in her direction, she picked up her phone and opened the message.
Mr. Luo,âdid you see that upstart from China?â
Zhou Xue âer tapped a few times on the screen.
yes, I did. Sheâs not a nouveau riche. Sheâs a blind date arranged by the elders of my family. Donât always call her that.
After sending the message, there was no reply for a long time. Zhou Xue âer hesitated for a moment before sending another message.
[ thank you for your support with the new book. Iâll treat you to a meal some other day. ]
This time, it only took a few seconds for a reply.
Mr. Luo: â my Xue âer is releasing a new book. The other authors have to make way for you. Itâs a deal. Letâs have a meal together another day.
Zhou Xue âer replied with a cute emoji.

When Lin Zhan returned to the hotel, it was almost nine O âclock in the evening.
He ordered another cup of coffee for himself and lay on his bed like a geyou. He held his laptop and immediately followed Zhou Xue âerâs INS account.
If he didnât look, he wouldnât know that Zhou Xue âer actually had more than two million fans. She should be at the stage where passersby would recognize her, but they wouldnât be able to call her name.
It was definitely nothing compared to Lei Jie, but among the writers, he was really quite impressive.
No wonder people kept looking at them when they were eating today.
Lin Zhan used some of his skills and simply understood Zhou Xue âer on the internet.
Her fans âevaluation of her was similar to Lin Zhanâs first impression-pure, kind, talented, and beautiful.
However, she was able to achieve what she had today thanks to Lion Publishingâs support.
The lion Publishing house was the most powerful publishing house in City Z. The special President, rock, admired her and had announced many times in public that Zhou Xue âer would be the successor of J. K. Rowling.
em......
Lin Zhan took an hour to quickly read Zhou Xue âerâs previous hot-selling novel. Her writing was beautiful and smooth, quite artistic, but to say that she was the successor of J. K. Luo Lin was still a little exaggerated.
But everyone had their own preferences. Maybe rock liked this type of writing style?
Whenever Lin Zhan closed his eyes, he would remember the girlâs Crescent-like eyes.
He thought of a saying,âa girl who likes to smile wonât be too unlucky.â

In the villa.
Su had also returned from the Research Institute. After dinner, he cooped himself up in his room and replied to Su Jin Yangâs emails.
They were all about the new energy project.
The future development of this project could be said to be closely related to the capitalâs policies.
In this area, no one had more say than Yan Zhengwei.
In order to avoid suspicion, su didnât mention Yan Zhengweiâs name in Nan Bowanâs email. He only asked if Yan Zhengwei knew anyone in this field, preferably the director of the Bureau or above.
As expected, su received Xu Huanyingâs WeChat message not long after the email was sent.
The Golden Peony of Jingdu: â thatâs true. Have you been in contact with chief Yan recently? â I donât know if heâs free these days, but your father wants to ask him about some work matters.
With this WeChat message, su was able to help them arrange an appointment.
He was about to turn off his phone when Xu Huanyingâs WeChat message came in.
It wasnât easy to get in touch with her, so she wouldnât miss this opportunity. After a simple greeting, she quickly asked the question she wanted to know the most.
The Golden Peony of Jingdu said,âthatâs true. Are you used to staying in a hotel?â Are you two sharing a room or Yingying?
Su was also very honest.
His ancestor, two rooms.
After sending the message, he muted his phone and threw it on the bed. Then, he got up and took out a bath towel and bathrobe from the cabinet, ready to take a shower.
On the phone that was thrown on the bed, the chat interface kept popping up with new messages from the capital cityâs Golden Peony.
After a long while, the conversation finally stopped. Su picked up his phone again. Before he exited WeChat, he glanced at the last message sent by his niece-in-law. It was an animated picture that many middle-aged women liked. It was a bouquet of roses with two colorful âgoodbyeâ on it, and below it was a line of bold, song-style words âI wish you a long and everlasting friendshipâ.
The âyou guysâ here referred to su ye and Bo Yunli.
It seemed that he was quite angry.
There were two knocks on the door behind him.
Just from the knocking, su could tell that it was Bo Yunli, her long-time friend.
He opened the door, and as expected.
Bo Yunli brought her a cup of warm milk.
Su also took the milk and was about to close the door, but a large hand held the door and stopped her.
Bo Yunliâs gaze passed her and landed on the bathrobe she had thrown on the bed. He narrowed his eyes.âYou want to take a bath?â
