CHAPTER 2227: 2227. THE LOVE OF THE YOUNGER GENERATION, VERY SWEET (140)

"Yes, Teacher Xu, my pen name is Ancient Heart, and my real name is Lu Xinyou. You can call me Youyou or Little Lu."

Seeing that Teacher Xu immediately put down his laptop on his knees and stood up from his chair, his attitude to her changed significantly.

"Young lady, you are amazing. At such a young age, you can write such a story. If I hadn’t seen you in person, I would have thought it was written by someone my age."

Xu, the scriptwriter, had read "Seeking the Marquis" and admired the author’s writing prowess and storytelling ability.

Now, learning that the original author was actually such a young girl, he admired her even more.

Before they started working together, he already had the intention of bringing Lu Xinyou into the industry, saying:

"Young lady, are you interested in becoming a screenwriter? I could be your mentor, and in the future, I could pass on suitable scripts for you to write."

Lu Xinyou felt a bit overwhelmed by Teacher Xu’s enthusiasm and hurriedly said:

"Thank you for your kindness, Teacher Xu, but I’m still in school now. Apart from holidays, I don’t have much time to write novels, let alone scripts."

With that, she scratched her head embarrassingly and continued:

"My dad doesn’t want me following the crew around either..."

She bowed slightly to Teacher Xu, "Thank you."

Although Lu Xinyou’s words were not very direct, her refusal of Teacher Xu’s offer was clear from her tone.

Although disappointed, Teacher Xu didn’t force her and just said:

"That’s a pity. If you ever change your mind, you can come and find me."

With that, he handed Lu Xinyou his business card.

Lu Xinyou took it with both hands and thanked him again.

At this moment, Nan Xiang, who had followed behind, saw this scene and felt an increased sense of jealousy.

Scriptwriter Xu was very famous in the industry. Many renowned film and TV investors, top directors, and top movie kings and queens had offered high prices to have him write scripts for them.

Nan Xiang had gone through her connections to contact him, trying to establish a relationship with him.

Later on, when she entered the circle, perhaps she would have the chance to act in a script he wrote, and become famous overnight.

However, Xu didn’t pay any attention to her. He was polite in conversation, but when it came to business, he didn’t even bother to discuss it with her.

After several attempts, she lost interest.

But she didn’t expect Scriptwriter Xu to value Lu Xinyou so much as to extend an invitation and even offer to mentor her.

This was an incredible honor for Lu Xinyou, and she had the audacity to refuse.

Did she think that just because she’s written a novel, her tail could reach the sky, and she doesn’t need to pay attention to others anymore?

Nan Xiang sneered in her heart as she walked towards Lu Xinyou and Scriptwriter Xu.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the jealousy was evident, "Youyou, you are really too ungrateful. With someone like Teacher Xu inviting you to join the industry, how could you refuse so thoughtlessly? Even I wanted to become Teacher Xu’s disciple and he didn’t agree, you really are too..."

With that, she stared disapprovingly at Lu Xinyou, her eyes filled with accusation.

Through these actions, not only did she want to provoke dissatisfaction from Scriptwriter Xu, but she also wanted to ingratiate herself with him.

By seizing this opportunity, she hoped that Xu would take her as his disciple.

Although she had never written a novel, she was, after all, one of the outstanding students of the Chinese Department. If she really wanted to write, how could she not be able to?
