Writing has always been a dream for Qian Yao Tiao. 0
 
But why did she have to run into Wei Junzi, the "manuscript-pushing demon," at such a critical moment? 0
 
In fact, Qian Yao Tiao found that Wei Junzi had a soft side. Although he often claimed he wouldn’t indulge her laziness anymore, every time she complained about her shoulders hurting, he would relent and agree to help her type. 0
 
Of course, when faced with certain special scenes, she would still choose to write them herself instead of dictating. 0
 
Time slipped by like stepping on a banana peel, and it had already been half a month since Wei Junzi moved in. 0
 
"Where are you going?" Wei Junzi asked without taking his eyes off the computer, catching a glimpse of Qian Yao Tiao preening in front of the mirror and carefully picking out her outfit. 0
 
Qian Yao Tiao rolled her eyes and replied irritably, "Of course I'm going shopping! I haven't been out in ages, all because of you and Wu Qi!" 0
 
"The manuscript isn’t finished yet, right?" He started his usual gentle nagging again. "Eighty pages a day..." 0
 
"Don't worry! I'm almost done. I’ll finish it tonight when I get back. I originally planned to complete it within half a month, and considering the deposit, let’s just say I hired a typist! I’ll bring you something to eat tonight." 0
 
Wei Junzi had indeed helped her type quite a bit, and suddenly Qian Yao Tiao felt quite clever about this arrangement. 0
 
However, by the afternoon on the pedestrian street, boredom set in. She felt empty inside, as if not writing something would leave her restless. 0
 
Had she really gotten used to being pushed by Wei Junzi? She wasn’t a masochist! 0
 
 
After reluctantly wandering for another fifteen minutes, Qian Yao Tiao finally slinked into a taxi, deciding to head back home. 0
 
Meanwhile, Wei Junzi felt an uneasy emptiness in his mouth. Without Qian Yao Tiao’s bargaining, her stubborn protests against deadlines, life seemed to lose a bit of its fun. 0
 
In the past, when urging other authors for their submissions, he had never encountered such a situation… To him, those authors had been like strangers passing by without any connection. 0
 
After pacing around the room in frustration for a while, Wei Junzi realized he was sweating. He thought it would be better to take a shower now rather than fight with the freshly returned Qian Yao Tiao for the bathroom later. 0
 
So when Qian Yao Tiao came back, she found Wei Junzi’s laptop neatly resting on the table, but its owner was nowhere to be seen. 0
 
“Wei Junzi, turns out he’s not really a shut-in after all.” Perhaps he had gone to find another author to chase for their work? Sighing at the thought of Wei Junzi seeking someone else, Qian Yao Tiao felt a twinge of annoyance. 0
 
“Forget it, I’ll take a shower first. It seems I also forgot to bring him something to eat; I’ll just order takeout.” Qian Yao Tiao muttered to herself, adjusting her mood as she walked a few steps to the bathroom and opened the door without hesitation. 0
 
“Ah— you…” She was taken aback to see Wei Junzi just finishing his shower and getting ready to put on his clothes. 0
 
But the tight skin and well-defined muscles were not the main focus; what struck her was the foggy scene with droplets of water—she suddenly remembered this was a classic scene from her own novel! 0
 
Wei Junzi quickly grabbed a towel to wrap around himself and didn’t scold her: “Qian Yao Tiao, are you planning to just stand there watching me get dressed, or will you step outside?” 0
 
“Hehe, take your time…” Qian Yao Tiao snapped back to reality from her shock, hurriedly covering her eyes and forcing a smile. As she exited, she closed the door firmly behind her to show that she had no intention of peeking. 0
 
“Write more realistically; go experience it firsthand,” Wei Junzi’s earlier words suddenly echoed in her ears. 0
 
 
Where in life is there no karmic bond? 0
 
Could her karmic bond, Qian Yao Tiao, possibly develop into a romantic relationship? At this thought, Qian Yao Tiao's face flushed bright red, reaching all the way to her ears. 0
