Chapter 184 - Chapter 184 Fang Xun: Did I come at the wrong time?

Inazuma, Yae Publishing House.

Today, Yae Publishing House was bustling.

Readers surrounded Yae Publishing House in three layers, making it impossible to pass.

They conversed in small groups, their expressions filled with anticipation.

Because not long ago, Yae Publishing House had posted an announcement,

stating that on the day the festival began, Yae Publishing House would release a new work.

That work was created by a famous Inazuma author and had been incredibly popular throughout Inazuma recently.

And this new book was also a continuation of the previous book's theme and style, with the protagonist and female lead starting a new love story.

It was precisely because of this novel story selling point that readers were full of anticipation, lining up at Yae Publishing House early in the morning.

Everyone wanted to be the first to buy the interesting light novel.

However, when everyone saw the content of the new book, they all couldn't sit still.

Because the quality of the new book's content had declined too severely.

Compared to the previous one, it was simply a complete mess.

In the previous book, the protagonist and female lead had a sweet and loving relationship.

In this book, the female lead died at the beginning.

Who could handle that?

The readers' expectations were shattered, and they even felt cheated.

In response, the angry readers surrounded the entrance of Yae Publishing House, demanding an explanation from Yae Publishing House.

"Why are you selling such a new book? Doesn't Yae Publishing House even check the quality?"

"I came because of Yae Publishing House's reputation, but the result is too disappointing!"

"How could you, Yae Publishing House, have the nerve to sell a book like this?"

For a moment, the editors were very flustered, appearing somewhat at a loss.

Actually, they were also very helpless, unable to express their difficulties.

From their perspective as professional editors, the quality of this light novel had not declined.

It just didn't meet the readers' expectations.

Because of the endless stream of light novels, readers' tastes had become more discerning.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, the editors quickly invited Yae back.

And Yae, looking at the chaotic scene, appeared calm and composed.

She slowly stepped forward, her gaze sweeping over the crowd before her.

"I can understand everyone's feelings; after all, no one wants to leave disappointed after coming with such high expectations."

Yae paused, then continued, "How about this: two days from now, at the same time and same place, I will stand here and give everyone a satisfactory answer."

"At that time, Yae Publishing House will release a brand new light novel, guaranteed to impress everyone."

"If we fail, Yae Publishing House will close down."

Compared to the other editors' bewildered expressions,

Yae's aura was very strong.

She immediately took control of the situation.

The readers hesitated for a moment, then chose to believe Yae.

After all, Yae's judgment had never been wrong.

The quality issue with this new book was mainly because Yae had left Inazuma earlier to travel to Liyue.

If Yae had finalized the manuscript, the situation would surely have been better, right?

Therefore, everyone agreed to return in two days to see the result.

After the readers left, the editors finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Yae was here to take charge of the overall situation.

Without Yae, Yae Publishing House would probably have been in utter chaos today.

A female editor said with eyes full of admiration, "As expected of Yae, she found a solution so quickly!"

"No, I haven't found a solution yet." Yae shook her head.

"To be honest, I don't have any ideas right now either."

"I just thought that this stalemate wasn't a solution, so I decided to give everyone an explanation in two days."

Hearing Yae say this, the editors' relaxed nerves tightened again.

They had thought the crisis was over, but now it seemed the trouble had only just begun.

What was the brand new light novel?

They had no idea!

The most critical thing was,

if this incident wasn't resolved well, the reputation of Yae Publishing House would inevitably be affected.

Thinking of this, the editors turned ashen and sighed helplessly, "It's over! In two days, where are we going to find a new book?"

"Just starting to write from scratch, it's impossible to finish a book in two days, right?"

"I think there's still hope. If an author can write a thousand characters in an hour, that's twenty-four thousand characters in twenty-four hours."

"That's forty-eight thousand characters in two days! With some patchwork, that could be fifty thousand characters! Rounded up, that's one hundred thousand characters!"

"Do you think they're donkeys from a production team? Those authors are already doing well if they can write two thousand characters a day."

"So what do we do now? We don't have much time left to prepare."

All the editors were at a loss, feeling immense pressure.

Their gazes instinctively turned to Yae.

Yae was the backbone of Yae Publishing House.

And now, they could only place their hopes on Yae.

"There will definitely be a way... Isn't he here now?"

Yae murmured softly.

Her gaze fell upon Mr. Faxun, who was walking towards Yae Publishing House.

Looking at the chaotic Yae Publishing House, Mr. Faxun scratched his head, "Uh, Yae, are we here at the wrong time?"

"No, Mr. Faxun, you've come at precisely the right time."

"Hmm??"
