Chapter 485: Tempting
After all, even Coffee had to bow his head under someone else’s roof. At this time, Coffee was in the most urgent need of resources, so it was naturally impossible for him to offend Editor.
My Heart Won’t Die: [“…I haven’t left the circle, I’m just saving up manuscripts. When I’ve saved enough, I’ll be back.”]
Harry finally couldn’t hold back anymore and spoke up in the group chat.
Daia: [“Oh! If it isn’t the great My Heart Won’t Die! Seems like you’re building up strength to make a grand comeback!”]
No More Struggling: [“Is this the My Heart Won’t Die that Editor said wanted to become a top writer? Hahaha… looks like you still won’t give up!”]
Editor: [“…@My Heart Won’t Die, still won’t give up huh? I thought you’d gone to another site. How is it? My place is still better, right? If I won’t sign you, no other site will either. At least I took pity on you and gave you a basic allowance.”]
Editor’s words sounded like pity. He always acted superior in front of authors, as if he were their benefactor.
Little did he know that authors were actually the benefactors of editors!
It was the authors who created the works and attracted readers. Readers were the authors’ benefactors, and authors were the editors’ benefactors.
Now that capital monopolies had taken over, editors had become the authors’ fathers, while readers could only passively consume the garbage works forced on them by editors and subpar authors. This was completely backwards!
Group 8 Lead Editor Mung Bean: [“Editor 4, you’re going too far. Know when to stop.”]
What Harry didn’t expect was that the newly appointed Group 8 lead editor Mung Bean would actually speak up for him. This moved Harry deeply and instantly gave him a very positive impression of Mung Bean.
Group 4 Editor Editor: [“Lead Editor, matters in Group 4 aren’t for Group 8 to interfere with, are they?”]
Group 8 Lead Editor Mung Bean: [“I’m not interfering. I’m just saying don’t be so harsh on authors. Everyone goes through tough times. Wasn’t Eagle stubborn and struggling back in the day? Now he’s a top-tier author.”]
Group 4 Editor: [“Haha, can he compare to Eagle? I’m not being harsh. I’m doing this for his own good, trying to wake him up. Someone like him needs to be scolded. Only then will he come to his senses!”]
My Heart Won’t Die: [“Haha.”]
Harry didn’t argue with them in the group like last time, nor did he offer any explanations. After replying with a simple “haha,” he closed the chat window.
What was the point of saying more now?
The author circle was a brutal survival-of-the-fittest society where everything depended on results.
Without achievements and unable to provide benefits to others, no matter how right you were, you’d still be wrong. With power and achievements, you were a god. Even your farts would smell good, and people would lick your shit!
Being such a struggling writer now, arguing in the group would only bring humiliation upon himself!
Harry closed Discord with a melancholic sigh, out of sight, out of mind.
Just as Harry was feeling gloomy and upset, the study door suddenly swung open, and a graceful, beautiful figure appeared in the doorway.
“… brother-in-law… you’re in the study?” Harry was startled, nearly dropping the teacup in his hand. Looking up, he saw it was Clara.
“Yeah, writing in the study…” Harry said, flustered. “What’s up, Clara? Need something?”
“N… nothing much… just… wanted to borrow your computer…” Clara smiled slightly, her long hair swaying, her ample chest trembling slightly, exuding an indescribable charm.
Today, Clara was simply wearing a black tank top, a denim jacket, and tight gray casual pants.
This outfit was utterly ordinary, yet on Clara, it carried an inexplicable style and charm. Even the plainest clothes seemed to transform into high fashion when worn by her!
Coupled with Clara’s smooth, thick, cascading hair, long eyelashes, captivating fox-like eyes, and fair, rosy cheeks, she naturally radiated an irresistible allure that made Harry feel his soul was being drawn to her.
Clara was practically in her natural state.
“Oh…” Harry stared at Clara for a moment, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart, then stood up with a smile. “Go ahead. I’m not doing anything important anyway.”
“Okay!~~” Clara said coquettishly as she smiled at Harry, her body carrying a refreshing and pleasant fragrance. She cutely trotted over to Harry and happily sat on his office chair, casually crossing her legs. She leaned slightly forward over the computer desk to open the browser.
Clara’s thighs were already incredibly sexy – long, plump and perfectly rounded legs that looked especially attractive in her tight-fitting casual pants. In this sitting position, the curves of her thighs and shapely buttocks were even more prominently displayed, nearly making Harry’s eyes pop out of his head.
Feeling a sudden warmth in his nostrils, Harry thought he might be getting a nosebleed.
This girl Clara was born with a fox-like seductiveness that could make any man fall into deep infatuation. She always inspired strong desires – to love her, adore her, and become completely enchanted by her!
Her alluring charm seemed capable of awakening the deepest sexual fantasies in a man’s heart, fulfilling every possible desire for an ideal lover. Every inch of her skin, every movement she made was utterly captivating. With every gesture and smile, she was truly breathtaking.
What was even more dangerous was that after becoming intimate with Harry, Clara often displayed cute, coquettish behavior. Sometimes like a spoiled little kitten, other times like a cunning fox – now sweet and dependent, now mischievously playful.
This kind of intimate behavior typically seen between lovers made Clara even more irresistible, practically making Harry feel like his soul was about to leave his body. He had an overwhelming urge to tear out his own heart and offer it to her.
“Brother-in-law, really, your study is such a mess,” Clara frowned and pouted at Harry while browsing the web. “And you’ve been smoking in here too. It reeks of cigarettes… You didn’t even bother cleaning up.”
“Uh… I’ll clean it up later…” Harry awkwardly scratched his head and laughed. “I didn’t expect you to come use the computer… If I’d known you were coming, I would’ve made it spotless…” Noticing the campus website interface showing photos of celebrities and a large poster, he asked curiously, “Clara, is this your school’s website?”
“Yeah, I’m checking the audition notice and filling in some registration details… I’ll probably go back to school the day after tomorrow for the auditions.”
As Clara scrolled through the page entering her information, Harry’s eyes stole a glance at her chest. Her denim jacket was open, and the tight camisole was struggling to contain her full, pale breasts. The black camisole stretched tightly over her voluptuous curves, revealing deep cleavage.
The partially exposed pale flesh made Harry unconsciously gulp hard. Clara’s figure was absolutely top-tier – if completely undressed, her perfect body would be unimaginably exquisite. Just looking at her like this made Harry’s head feel hot, and he nearly got another nosebleed.
“Brother-in-law, what are you doing? Honestly! I’ve said all this and you’re still not reacting? Are you completely clueless?” Clara secretly glanced at Harry, feeling somewhat annoyed. “Are you coming with me or not? I already told him about it. Does this dummy need me to spell it out clearly? Ugh, what an idiot brother-in-law! Huh? What is brother-in-law looking at?”
Noticing Harry’s gaze wasn’t on the computer but fixed on her chest, Clara curiously looked down at herself and immediately blushed crimson with embarrassment.
Hearing Clara’s inner thoughts, Harry suddenly snapped out of it. Quickly averting his gaze before Clara could get upset, he said with forced seriousness, “This audition could determine your whole future. I’ve just finished my old book project and plan to take a break. This is the perfect chance for me to go with you, be your support team, and let me experience the college atmosphere again, relive those wonderful university days.”
“Really? Brother-in-law! You can really come with me? That’s amazing!” Clara jumped up excitedly and, before Harry could react, threw her arms around him and planted a loud kiss on his cheek.
