Chapter 336 More Real Than Pearls

"I'm just a little curious, why are you covering yourself up so much in this hot weather?" Su Mengdie asked without any attempt to hide her curiosity.

"I'm ugly, I'm afraid I'll scare people," Chen Wei casually made up a reason.

He kept praying in his heart that Su Mengdie wouldn't ask any more questions.

"Ugly?" Su Mengdie clearly wasn't going to let Chen Wei off the hook so easily. She put on a curious expression and asked in a somewhat affected tone, "How ugly?"

"So ugly it's outrageous." Chen Wei belittled himself with a ruthless and indifferent attitude.

"Is that why you chose to become an online novelist?" Su Mengdie continued to ask.

“Yes, this way I can have an income that can support myself and reduce the number of times I have to go out.” Chen Wei became more and more immersed in the role, and when he spoke, even he himself was fooled.

"Is that right?"

"So, why did Miss Su choose to become a novelist?" Chen Wei seized the opportunity to quickly shift the topic from himself to Su Mengdie.

"Why did I become a novelist?" Su Mengdie had never seriously considered this question before. After resting her chin on her fingers and thinking for a moment, she replied, "Probably because I like to fantasize."

Fantasy?
Thinking back to what Su Mengdie had sent him before, Chen Wei was willing to call her the strongest when it came to the ability to fill in the blanks.

Seeing that Su Mengdie had taken out her phone and was no longer focusing on him, Chen Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Because of Chen Wei's strange attire, the people around him had no intention of approaching him.

This is good for Chen Wei.

"Your pen name is Nan A Nan?"

Just as he picked up his chopsticks, intending to reach for a slice of roast duck that had been spun around in front of him, Su Mengdie's voice rang in his ears again.

"Yes." Chen Wei nodded in affirmation.

"But why can't I find your work on the website?" Su Mengdie turned her phone screen towards Chen Wei so he could see it.

"I recently accidentally wrote some prohibited content, and it was temporarily taken down for editing," Chen Wei casually made up a reason.

"Really? Then why isn't there even a pirated link? If you're just starting out writing a book, and you haven't achieved certain results, I don't think you'd be invited to a place like this, right?" Su Mengdie's pair of crystal-clear eyes, like those of an eagle, stared straight at Chen Wei.

They were determined to force him to confess and submit to the law.

"Perhaps the website has increased its crackdown on piracy? Otherwise, the author wouldn't even be able to afford living expenses, and would definitely abandon the project." Chen Wei turned his head away, somewhat unable to meet Su Mengdie's gaze.

"Oh, that's good then." Su Mengdie withdrew her hand.

"..." Chen Wei reached out his hand again, but the roast duck he wanted had already been moved to the other side.

"Wait! This watch?" As he reached out, his sleeve slipped down, revealing the watch that had been hidden inside.

"What's wrong with this watch?" Chen Wei asked, feigning composure.

"It's nothing," Su Mengdie gently shook her head. "It's just that my younger brother recently bought an identical one."

"Really? That's quite a coincidence," Chen Wei said in surprise.

"However, this watch isn't cheap. It seems you're a regular on the bestseller list."

"I guess so, but my grades aren't very stable, and I've already fallen out of the top." Seeing that Su Mengdie didn't intend to pursue his identity any further, Chen Wei was finally able to catch his breath.

"Xiaowei, could you please get me some tissues over there?"

“Okay, dream…” He froze.

It was a completely subconscious action.

Old fox!
"It really was you!" Su Mengdie said sharply. "Sister, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept writing novels a secret from you." Since he had already been exposed, Chen Wei simply admitted it.

"You are Nanshan Nan?" Su Mengdie's five fingers clenched nervously.

If Chen Wei really is from Nanshan South...

Recalling their previous conversations, Su Mengdie felt so ashamed that she wanted to disappear into a hole in the ground. She didn't know how she would face Chen Wei in the future.

"Nanshan? You mean the number one player on the leaderboard? How could I possibly be him?" Chen Wei laughed.

“There is no such person as Nan Nan, you are Nan Shan Nan!” Su Mengdie asserted.

"I really am not. The reason I'm here today is because there's a collaboration plan between the company and the novel website. My fame will be used to drive reader traffic to the website."

Chen Wei didn't forget to bring Jiu Liang into the conversation, saying, "If you don't believe me, you can ask that editor."

"Sis, you know that the entertainment industry loves to create personas."

"Really?" Su Mengdie asked, still somewhat skeptical.

"More real than pearls."

"More real than pearls, that's your analogy," Su Mengdie smiled, covering her face, her words stirring the hearts of countless innocent men who secretly glanced at her.

"That guy didn't even show his face, yet he still managed to win over the beautiful Su."

"This is the ultimate level of flirting!"

"I'll ask him later if he takes on apprentices. He's too amazing. To be able to get on the good side of Miss Su, how many more subscriptions would he get if he could get a chapter or something?"

"Such a beautiful woman is right in front of you, and all you want is more chapters to boost your subscriptions..."

"Do you know Nanshan Nan?" Chen Wei tried to take control of the conversation.

"We can't really say we know each other, we just added each other as friends and got along quite well." After learning that Chen Wei was not Nanshan Nan, Su Mengdie's extremely nervous heart finally calmed down.

He didn't want to lose Nanshan Nan, such a good friend, and he didn't want to be ashamed to face Chen Wei. Thinking about it this way, it seemed like a good outcome.

There's no need to dwell on it anymore.

"I see. So what do you think of him as a person?" Chen Wei asked again.

"Very talkative, witty, and humorous..." Su Mengdie recounted.

"He might be a middle-aged man who picks his toes."

"Why do you say that? Have you met him?" Su Mengdie was very curious about Chen Wei's basis for judgment.

"Because he doesn't dare to come to the banquet. He's probably worried that if you, as the most beautiful and popular author, see his true face, he'll be disgusted," Chen Wei guessed irresponsibly.

"Just kidding, I'm not the kind of person who only cares about looks," Su Mengdie corrected.

"I was just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously, sis." Chen Wei put his hands in front of him to prevent Su Mengdie from lunging at him.

"By the way, what's the name of the novel you collaborated on with the website? What's its genre?" Su Mengdie suddenly remembered this topic and asked.

"Thank you for sharing your personal experiences, how you became famous, your views on the entertainment industry, etc. It's like an autobiography," Chen Wei said in a serious manner.

"You've published an autobiography at such a young age, that's impressive," Su Mengdie said with a smile.

"I'm just lucky," Chen Wei chuckled.

"Would you like me to write for you?"
