Chapter 70: 70. Next time for sure

Translator: 549690339

Time flew by, and before I knew it, it was next Wednesday.

Lin Zichen’s novel hit the shelves that day, and he splurged all his drafts, updating fifty thousand words in one go.

The readers were thrilled, praising him as a ‘writing machine.’

After that, he maintained a daily update of ten thousand words, continuing to delight his readers.

The readers showed their support through votes and gifts.

With the dual boost from regressing if not progressing and his gifted talents, after a month of writing exercises, he could now easily achieve ten thousand words per hour.

Just spending an hour a day on writing wouldn’t affect his daily training regime and was acceptable.

“Xiao Chen, your book’s performance is truly impressive. If you can keep updating ten thousand words every day, and if the plot doesn’t nosedive, you can expect to earn about fifty thousand in manuscript fees in the first month. Once the word count increases, earning a hundred thousand a month won’t be a problem,”

Lin Yansheng said with a beaming smile on his face.

Excited, Zhang Wanxin said, “My Xiao Chen is truly a genius of all trades. Still in high school, and already about to out-earn his parents.”

With a sense of inferiority, Lin Yansheng reminisced, “I think back to my first book, which did get published, but it only had a handful of subscribers. Toiling away at writing every month, I could only earn a few hundred in manuscript fees.”

At this moment, both husband and wife couldn’t help but be filled with emotion.

A genius indeed is remarkable, achieving far beyond the average person in any field.

And the effort they spend to achieve such success is perhaps less than one-tenth of what others would expend.

“Xiao Chen, although you’re making good money from writing novels right now, your focus must still be on your studies. Don’t let it affect your academics, understand?”

“You must listen to your father on this. In this world, no matter how wealthy an ordinary person is, they can’t compare to a Genetic Integrator who has broken free from human constraints,” the couple said earnestly.

Lin Zichen nodded, “Mom and Dad, don’t worry, I know my priorities.”

After speaking, he thought to himself, fifty thousand in a month, or even a hundred thousand?

With this income, I won’t have to worry about funds to unlock the Exotic Beast Album anymore.

I should update more while the novel is still new to ensure the manuscript fees for the first two months are enough to unlock the Ferocious Great Eagle Album.

With this in mind, for the following half a month, besides his daily training and helping Shen Qinghan with special training, Lin Zichen’s main concern was the performance of his novel.

The better the novel did, the more manuscript fees he would earn, and the sooner he could unlock the Ferocious Great Eagle Album.

To earn extra manuscript fees, sometimes he even wrote on his phone during class.

He planned to unlock the Ferocious Great Eagle Album first, then revert to his original study schedule.

Days went by, one after the other.

On this particular day, during martial arts class,

Lin Zichen: “This is on me. I’ve made everyone work harder because of personal reasons. To make it up, I’ll treat you all to bubble tea later.”

Upon hearing this, He Yu immediately stopped complaining and became all smiles, “Zi Chen, no, foster father, how can I accept that?”

Lin Zichen simply smiled and did not speak.

Then, with a thought, he looked into the void to check the progress of the Social Animal achievement.

[Achievement: In the premise of cooperation with multiple people, complete tasks cumulatively 1000 times]

[Reward: Acquire Biometric Attribute—Social Animal]

[Cumulative tasks completed: 608/1000]

Only 392 to go.

If he kept diligent, he could complete it in another month.

“I wonder what the effect of the Social Animal Biometric Attribute is...”

Lin Zichen pondered silently as he looked at the text in front of him.

Just at that moment.

Li Chuxin, who was fine just a moment ago, suddenly started crying on the desk, softly sobbing.

Shen Qinghan, upon seeing this, asked with concern, “Chu Xin, why are you crying?”

Li Chuxin raised her head, wiping tears as she spoke, “My mom just messaged me on WeChat to tell me that my cat, the one that could do backflips, accidentally fell from the balcony and died, wuwuwu...”

“It’s just a cat, is it worth crying over?” He Yu said, clearly not understanding.

Li Chuxin glared at him in response, “Someone heartless like you will never understand the bond between a cat and its owner!”

“Ah, right, right, I wouldn’t understand,” He Yu replied, taking out a tissue and handing it to her, “Stop crying, here, wipe your tears.”

Li Chuxin took the tissue, her eyes red from crying, somewhat surprised, “I didn’t expect a guy who’s always blustering to hand a tissue to a girl to wipe her tears. Quite the gentleman.”

After saying this, she took the tissue to wipe her tears, but as she did, she felt something was off. She looked at He Yu with a puzzled face, “Why does your tissue smell odd?”

“That’s one I had left over from the toilet this morning,” He Yu replied frankly.

“Ugh—”

Li Chuxin went from sad to disgusted in an instant.

When they parted ways.

He Yu, his face sporting a handprint, cheerfully said to the three of them:

“By the way, my family’s first martial arts gym in Shanhai City is going to have its grand opening in a few days. You three have to come and show some support. I’ll give you the Supreme VIP membership cards for free.”

“Definitely next time.” x3
