Chapter 1033: Maiden Work! Instant Hit!

Judging by how Gu Mang was lying on the sofa with her face covered by a book, and his past experiences…

When his eyes landed on that arrogant signature, he knew who Dark was.

It was another disguise of an employee who was not willing to reveal their identity.

A random sock puppet was a god at the top of the industry.

As she was pregnant, Gu Mang controlled herself and only drank one-third of the milk tea before shoving it to Lu Chengzhou.

Recently, she could only eat a few mouthfuls of food. She would leave the rest for Lu Chengzhou. He did not allow her to overeat. Otherwise, he would not buy food for her again. He was rather strict with her.

However, the cup had not reached Lu Chengzhou’s hand when Gu Mang retracted her hand and took another sip.

The man regained his senses and looked up.

Gu Mang cupped her face with one hand and raised her chin. “It’s just a signature. Don’t be taken aback. Have some milk tea and calm down.”

Lu Chengzhou looked at her. A few seconds later, he glanced at the food on the table and placed the book on his lap. He pressed on the book, as if he was afraid of dirtying it if he placed it on the table.

“Why did you suddenly stop writing?” He asked while taking a sip of milk tea.

Gu Mang answered casually, “Oh, I don’t feel like following that writing in that style anymore.”

In the literary circle, there was only one person who was given the ‘god’ title with just one book.

It was Dark, whose style was very unique.

At first, no one believed that one would be able to be given the ‘god’ title with just one book, so they had tried to find out other disguises of Dark.

However, the netizens who could be likened to the FBI, came to realize that Dark had never had other pen names.

Dark was a completely new presence!

Her maiden work was an instant hit!

With Dark’s rise to fame, many people felt that her writing style was on the darker side, which made people feel a loss of hope in humanity.

Her work was a pentalogy. Every book left a deep impression on its readers. Even the supporting roles were etched in the readers’ minds.

The only flaw was that the story was too depressing.

‘Slightly thrilling’, ‘dark’, ‘suffocating’ became the labels of her work.

The ending of every book was extremely tragic. The main character would either disappear or die.

The sad endings were regretful to many.

Some even wondered what had Dark gone through to be able to write such stories.

However, what they knew for sure was that Dark was definitely not a normal person.

Maybe she was depressed. Maybe she was psychologically abnormal.

Lu Chengzhou knew Dark’s literary style very well. Perhaps Gu Mang had really been in that state of mind during those years.

So much so that she could feel that way.

“I used to write to vent my feelings.” Gu Mang was very indifferent. “I don’t see a need for it now.”

Huo Zhi had thought that he had treated her, but she was aware that she had never been normal. She just learnt how to put up a pretense.

It was Lu Chengzhou who made living like a normal person possible.

To Gu Mang, Lu Chengzhou felt different from others from the start.

“You won’t need to do that in the future too.” Lu Chengzhou took a lollipop from the crystal plate on the table, unwrapped it and sent it near her lips.

Gu Mang opened her mouth.

Lu Chengzhou took the spicy hotpot and spicy rice cakes which she had taken a few bites of away from her and started eating by himself.

Gu Mang narrowed her eyes slightly.

Gu Mang’s current state of mind-

Even though she was by Lu Chengzhou’s side every day, he still could not be so sure.

This young lady was very good at acting.

Some times, Lu Chengzhou felt that it was fortunate that Gu Mang did not like to make a living out of her beauty. Otherwise, she would be able sweep all of the prestigious acting awards.

“You are going to stop writing?” He asked gently.

She had only said that she did not want to continue this literary style.

Hearing this, Gu Mang raised her exquisite brows slightly. “I’ll think about it.”

The Black Sea was selecting actors. She had to start preparing the movie posters.

Capital University was urging her to go back. Lan Ting was going to organise a Spring Summer fashion show…

And the Institute of Medicine had a new project.

She was so busy.
