Chapter 42

Luo Yang was in class when the internet was quietly swept by a whirlwind called "Those Years."

The story of Ke Jingteng and Shen Jiayi was being seen by more and more fans who were captivated by Bai Yiqingcheng.

"Those Years We Chased After the Girl?" Most readers and fans clicked into the book with great anticipation. "Ke Jingteng? Shen Jiayi? First person again? Could this be Bai Yiqingcheng's autobiography this time?"

The readers were all filled with curiosity...

When "First Intimate Contact" became a sensation, countless readers speculated that Pizi Cai's prototype was Bai Yiqingcheng himself, but later Bai Yiqingcheng stated that it was just a fictional story.

This time, Bai Yiqingcheng used the first person again, and everyone couldn't help but have the same thought.

But as they read on, the readers were captivated by the novel, and those irrelevant thoughts were thrown to the back of their minds...

"Why do I always feel that Ke Jingteng has appeared in our lives before."

"The boy who sat behind me used to love pulling my hair, loved pranks, and was very mischievous, but for some reason... I miss him now."

"Or maybe the boy who always criticized me back then actually had a crush on me?"

"Back then, many people called me a bookworm... but he was the only one who would ask me questions, very humbly."

"I also remember helping a boy with his studies, and every time his grades improved, I would feel happy..."

After finishing the updated part, female readers felt a faint sentiment brewing.

Not just the girls, but even the boys felt a strong sense of immersion after reading the book.

"Who would have thought that Bai Yiqingcheng's new book would be a story about a secret crush."

"The book has a youthful flavor, reading it feels like returning to those green years..."

"I feel like Ke Jingteng and I are so similar! I remember I used to really like the girl in our class who was very smart and had a good personality..."

"Right, in Ke Jingteng, I see a bit of myself."

"Shen Jiayi is very much like the girl I had a crush on back then, unfortunately, I never had the courage to confess until graduation..."

"I really hope Ke Jingteng and Shen Jiayi will end up together, it would be like fulfilling a young dream."

These days, the most popular thing is something called sentiment...

What is sentiment?

Luo Yang's "Those Years We Chased After the Girl" instantly made readers feel like they were back in those green years—this is sentiment, the sentiment of youth.

And this sentiment can make boys and girls, after reading the book, linger in those memories, savor them, and wander...

Unlike "First Intimate Contact," which was intense and painful, this one is like a gentle breeze, soft and tender, yet it tickles the readers' most sensitive spots...

Thus, "Those Years We Chased After the Girl" became a hit.

The reading volume on Weibo kept increasing, breaking the ten million mark on the first day and showing no signs of slowing down.

The number of reprints also approached ten million, with countless readers promoting this sentimental work on their Weibo accounts...

On the Weibo trending list, "Those Years We Chased After the Girl" directly jumped to second place!

The recent top trending item is "Next Stop: Queen," which is a very popular national program. Even though "Those Years We Chased After the Girl" was a huge hit upon release, it still couldn't surpass the popularity of "Next Stop: Queen."

——

When Luo Yang returned from class, "Those Years" had already been given a huge banner recommendation by Weibo.

Luo Yang smiled, knowing this was a mutually beneficial arrangement, just like with "First Intimate Contact." Luo Yang and the Weibo officials were on the same page.

"Bai Yiqingcheng, please update the next chapter..."

"Bai Yiqingcheng, please update, I can't stop after reading the first part!"

"A completely different story from 'First Intimate Contact,' but equally captivating!"...

After opening Weibo, Luo Yang carefully read the comments from readers about "Those Years We Chased After the Girl." After reading hundreds of comments, he felt relieved.

Not everyone was satisfied, but the majority of the comments were positive, and the readers were generally pleased with the story. This meant that using "Those Years" as his second pure love novel was a successful step.

After all, "Those Years We Chased After the Girl" is an excellent story, and Luo Yang had added some romantic elements to the original work to make it more like the movie. The original work wasn't as romantic as the movie, so Luo Yang made it more sweet and romantic.

This resulted in a version of "Those Years We Chased After the Girl" that was both realistic and romantically enchanting, naturally attracting readers.

Adding to that, the popularity from "First Intimate Contact" gave "Those Years" a strong foundation, and its influence was already rivaling "First Intimate Contact."

"Write, write!"

The support from readers was the author's motivation, so Luo Yang was full of energy.

Opening his writing software, Luo Yang began writing the subsequent chapters of "Those Years We Chased After the Girl."

Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Luo Yang was in excellent form. By 11 PM, he had already written over 30,000 words, which amounted to eight chapters.

Luo Yang was about to upload them but stopped when he opened Weibo.

"Maybe I shouldn't upload them yet. With 30,000 words, the story will be over. I might as well stay up all night and finish the rest of the story, then upload it all at once."

Originally, Luo Yang planned to serialize it over three days.

But for a complete story, Luo Yang preferred to upload it all at once.

Otherwise, a good story would be interrupted by serialization, undoubtedly affecting the reading experience.

So, Luo Yang decided to hold back the drafts, abandoning the plan to serialize it over three days. He decided to finish the remaining story and then upload it all at once.

Despite feeling a bit tired, he reopened his writing software.

Tap, tap...

Luo Yang's fingers were still in good form, and his typing speed was like flying, with only the sound of typing accompanying him in the empty dormitory.

1,000 words...

2,000 words...

Time passed bit by bit.

When the remaining 30,000 words were written, the sky in the east was already turning white, and it was past 4 AM.

Looking at the results of his all-nighter, Luo Yang yawned several times, feeling his eyelids fighting to stay open.

"Finally finished... but I'm so sleepy..."

Luo Yang wobbled to his feet, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep, momentarily forgetting that he hadn't uploaded the finished manuscript yet...
