Chapter 252: Chapter 252

Chen Jingbai finally managed to placate Chu River, who was bent on becoming a dad, and now, while handing her some fried chicken, he asked:

"The animation is already finished, and the website is purchased. When do you plan to launch it?"

Chu River shook her head: "I’m not broadcasting it just yet—I’m waiting for an opportunity."

However, Chen Jingbai didn’t press for a reason. Instead, he asked, "Are you upset that I didn’t give you my copyright?"

Chu River glared at him: "Of course, I’m upset. Why wouldn’t you give it to me? Moreover, because you didn’t, I had to put in more effort to handle this matter. It ticks me off!"

Heading out into the rain late at night, dealing with that greasy ex-boyfriend, writing code... it’s just too much.

Chen Jingbai gave a wry smile: "I didn’t know you were so amazing..."

"But this copyright negotiation has already reached halfway before the book even opened. Leaving halfway would be quite inappropriate. After all, the previous copyright fees offered were quite generous. If you raise the price, I can sell it openly, but raising the price... I can’t bear for you to spend so much money—"

Chu River bragged: "I know, right? Why would I bring your copyright fees down? The higher they are, the more successful you look!"

If Chang Geng sees himself as Chu Fa Da’s little brother, which is unprecedented and unimaginable, how could she let her little brother lose face?

At this moment, Chu River was proudly shaking her crossed legs:

"Don’t worry, once the animation is out, we’ll get some cash. Then I’ll give you an outrageous copyright fee and collect all of your animation versions, each one better than the last!"

"That’s not necessary..."

Though Chen Jingbai said it wasn’t necessary, his gaze was soft, as if it could melt.

He thought: Who could bear to see Little He unhappy with such a sincere heart?

He couldn’t resist thinking about her troublesome ex-boyfriend:

"By the way, what’s going on with that ex-boyfriend of yours? Does he have a job?"

If he does, let’s see if there’s a friend who could make things difficult for him!

Real men, when they dislike someone, of course, they’ll stir things up all day.

Chu River put down her fried chicken, letting out a long, sad sigh.

"Don’t mention it; he’s too inefficient. How long have I been waiting—"

She complained about his inefficiency, but in reality, Su Tiankuo updates 30,000 words daily, so he’s quite quick.

By the first of next month, his work will likely go live, and that will be when his confidence peaks!

That’s the day Chu River chose to nail him to the pillar of shame for plagiarism!

There’s no need to hide this from Chen Jingbai now.

In fact, she hadn’t been hiding it before; she was just too lazy to mention it.

"That troublesome thing is still idle now, living off online loans. But don’t worry, next month I’ll pin him down."

Chen Jingbai frowned: "How do you know he’s still living off online loans? Are you still keeping an eye on him?"

Are all girls so deeply attached to their first loves? Knowing the other person is a scumbag and still—?

Chu River rolled her eyes: "I’m eating, don’t disgust me—do I even need to keep an eye on him? It’s so obvious."

She was referring to the clarity from her phone monitoring and the feedback from the online loan information push, but Chen Jingbai pondered that previously many supported Little He, and now probably someone has told her, which eased his worries.

"Treasure life, stay away from trash, and don’t get entangled with such garbage."

Suddenly, Chu River laughed: "I’m not getting entangled with him, but you have a lot of entanglements with him—he’s now writing a novel on your website. Do you know what it’s called?"

Chen Jingbai squinted dangerously: "What’s it called?"

Tonight he’ll take a look, huh! What can such a person possibly write?

Chu River looked at him and softly uttered three words—

Chen Jingbai was speechless.

His current hot serialized book "Lingxiao" was originally named "Phoenix Platform."

"Is this... a coincidence?"

The three words "Phoenix Platform" aren’t common web novel cliché names. To say it’s a coincidence, yet it’s someone familiar, seems a bit too coincidental.

Chu River smiled and shook her head—

"He has a little trick, can plagiarize certain works—but don’t worry, I’ve modified some programs in the backend, what he’s plagiarizing now..."

She smirked: "You can go take a look, but don’t comment just yet. On the first, I have a way to teach him a lesson."

She looked down on Su Tiankuo—after all, with Biqu Pavilion in hand, he at least had a golden finger. If he wanted to take the web novel path, inside there are many pioneering theme works. Even if he learns from others’ creativity, with the website benefits, despite poor writing, he could at least scrape by.
