Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

[Disgusting Male Lead]: "Awesome!"

[Disgusting Male Second Character]: "Awesome!"

"666!!!"

"What are you disgusting men doing?"

"We're giving this commenter a 6!"

"Oh? So you've realized your mistake?"

"Recognize my ass! You bunch of idiots, open your eyes and take a good look! This is a hidden-character poem!"

"???"

……

……

Time passed slowly, and soon an hour had gone by.

"Holy crap, it's already 10:29?"

Looking at the time on the clock, Qin Yu felt guilty.

Okay, he'll scroll through another Douyin video, and then officially start writing at 10:30.

five minutes later……

"Damn! How did I accidentally spend another four minutes on this? Oh well, I'll just wait until 10:40 to start writing."

ten minutes later……

"Damn! We're overtime again? Oh well, it's already past 10:50 anyway, let's just start at 11:00."

Qin Yu secretly estimated that if he went all out, he could update about two chapters per hour.

So he spent another half hour on it!

As Qin Yu watched the clock on the wall point to 11:30, he felt completely numb.

TikTok has ruined me!!!

To write four thousand words in half an hour is something even someone with a magic paintbrush couldn't do.

Given the current situation, it's clearly impossible to complete the update task by simply typing out words.

He needs to think of another way.

Got it!

I've heard that the guys on Tieba (a Chinese online forum) are incredibly resourceful; maybe asking them there will help.

With this in mind, Qin Yu logged into Tieba and posted a question.

"I'm a struggling online novelist. How can I complete a 4,000-word update within half an hour? I need help urgently."

As soon as the question was posted, netizens from various online forums quickly began to reply.

【Green Green Grassland, I'm the most flamboyant】: "V me 50, and I'll call Boiling Sheep over to help you write it."

【Zang Ai Leng Shao】: "I am an S-level time-type talent user. V me 500, and I will help you stop time."

[Qin Shi Huang himself]: "I am Qin Shi Huang. Send me money, and I will revive my terracotta warriors and make a comeback. I will then directly appoint you as the founding prime minister. At that time, why would you need to write any web novels!"

"..."

Seeing the outrageous replies from various forum users, Qin Yu's lips twitched uncontrollably.

Yarema!

I'd eat any human being in these groups!

Qin Yu shook his head speechlessly.

However, based on their replies, Qin Yu came up with a solution.

Find someone to write it for you!

Writing 4,000 words in half an hour is impossible, but writing 1,000 words is still a piece of cake.

If he just finds three more people and has each write a thousand words, wouldn't the four thousand word update task be completed?

With this in mind, Qin Yu immediately created a WeChat group and added Liu Damao, Li Xiaoke, and Lin Qingxue to it.

Qin Yu: "Brothers and sisters, I'm in urgent need of help!"

"Please write a short story of 1,000 words right now and submit it to me before 12 o'clock. I'll treat you to KFC after you finish!"

"Oh, by the way, the protagonist's name must be Xiao Huo."

Lin Qingxue: ?

[Li Xiaoke]: ? ?

[Liu Damao]: ? ? ?

"Old Qin, what are you doing?"

"Brothers and sisters, don't ask anymore, time is tight, let's finish writing first!"

[Liu Damao]: "Old Qin, just treat me to a KFC meal, it's too much of a hassle for me to do this for you."

[Li Xiaoke]: "That's right, they never treat us to meals normally, but they always let us stand up for them when it comes to trouble!"

[Qin Yu]: "If you guys don't fight first, how can I treat you to a meal?"

[Lin Qingxue]: "Flirtatious remarks are made every year, but this group has an especially large number of them."

[Liu Damao]: "There are thousands of sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks, but I make up half of this group."

Qin Yu was stunned when he saw several people in the group suddenly start playing a game of banter.

As the king of trash talk,

Can't think of a witty reply right now?

Oops, no, that's not right!

Now is definitely not the time to be thinking about sassy things!

Qin Yu shook his head sharply, regaining his composure.

That was close; I almost got led astray by them.

He then replied directly in the group:

"Stop whining, five meals at KFC, are you in or not?"

[Liu Damao]: OK!

[Li Xiaoke]: jbok!

[Lin Qingxue]: kojb?

Everyone:...

"6!"

Lin Qingxue put down her phone, a hint of confusion flashing across her exquisite and beautiful face.

"What tricks is Qin Yu up to this time?"

She shook her head, too lazy to think about it anymore, got out of bed, put on a silk nightgown, and sat down in front of the computer.

"The protagonist is Xiao Huo. How about we write a short story of a thousand words?"

Lin Qingxue stroked her fair and smooth chin, pondered for a moment to come up with a plot, and then began to type furiously on the keyboard.

Meanwhile, Liu Damao and Li Xiaoke were doing the same thing.

After all, since he had already promised Qin Yu, he naturally had to do his best to fulfill his promise.

Time ticked by, and less than a minute remained until midnight.

Qin Yu had already finished writing his thousand words and was anxiously waiting for news from the other three.

Soon, accompanied by three consecutive ringing sounds, the other three finally sent over their thousand words.

Because of the tight schedule, Qin Yu didn't have time to read it through. He simply pieced the four stories together awkwardly and uploaded it, finally completing today's update task before 12 o'clock.

Qin Yu let out a long sigh and slumped into his chair.

That was close; thankfully he was quick-witted.

But what he didn't know was that the two chapters he updated today would cause a huge uproar on the novel website.

Of course, this is a story.

P.S.: I was traveling a lot today and am a bit tired, so this is a little short and watery. Please forgive me.
