Chapter 423 Xu Youyu's Bath Water

After entering the hotel room, Li Luo dragged the suitcase and placed it on the luggage rack against the wall.

Xu Youyu got up from the bed at this time and took a general tour of the room with Li Luo.

To be honest, in his previous life, Li Luo and Xu Youyu came to Qiongzhou to travel and they stayed in relatively ordinary hotels.

This is the first time Li Luo has come to a special sea view resort hotel like this, even though he has been a human for two lifetimes.

Not to mention that Wenyue Group was very generous this time and reserved a room facing the sea and beach specifically for these top-level authors.

Looking out the balcony window from indoors, you can see the endless sea and the yellow sand beach that looks like a ribbon.

Inside the room, Xu Youyu walked to the bathroom door, then exclaimed "Wow~" and said to Li Luo, "It's a round bathtub, and there's a piece of glass in the middle."

Li Luo glanced at the oversized bathtub on the right side of the bathroom, which looked more than enough for two people to sit in. Then he looked towards the inside of the room and saw a floor-to-ceiling glass separating the bathroom and the bedroom.

Unlike the previous hotel room in Changning City, this time, there was not even frosted glass, just pure transparent glass.

There are curtains inside and outside that can be drawn to provide cover.

On the left side of the bathroom is a toilet and a shower room with separate wet and dry areas.

"Would you like to take a bath tonight?" Xu Youyu poked Li Luo's waist and encouraged him, "It's a rare opportunity, wouldn't it be a bit unreasonable not to enjoy it?"

"I don't mind." Li Luo said, "But you haven't written anything yet tonight, right? Is it too late?"

"What do you know?" Xu Youyu snorted, "Isn't attending the annual meeting the best excuse to ask for leave?"

"Are you planning to take two or three days off?" Li Luo said, "Besides, our parents will be here from the 1st to the 4th, and it will be inconvenient for you to write then. Why don't you save more manuscripts?"

"Oh, my book is already in the late stages." Xu Youyu waved his hand and said, "If I continue to update normally, I estimate it will be finished in March or April at the latest. There's no rush. It's okay to take a few more days off."

After hearing what Xu Youyu said, Li Luo shook his head helplessly. He was no longer surprised by her situation.

In other words, the vast majority of online writers have this problem.

Especially for someone like Xu Youyu, who has written a book of two or three million words and needs to finish it and fill in all the holes he dug in the early stages, it is actually a very tiring job.

Besides, filling a hole is not as comfortable as digging one. Digging a hole means you can dig wherever you want, which is a very happy thing for the author.

But filling in the gaps is a kind of supplement to the established facts, which is not so pleasant for the author.

Being lazy and slacking off has become the norm.

"Finish it sooner so you can be free sooner." Li Luo said, "You don't want to wait until after the college entrance examination to finish it, do you?"

"I know~ I will try my best~" Xu Youyu said a few perfunctorily, then pushed Li Luo out of the bathroom and walked towards the balcony.

As a result, as soon as they walked to the balcony and pulled open half of the curtains that had been covered earlier, the two of them were stunned for a moment.

Because on the balcony, behind the curtains, there is actually an extra-large open-air bathtub!

"Damn! Is this hotel so extravagant?" Xu Youyu opened the balcony door and walked out, looking around at the large bathtub on the balcony, then looked at Li Luo and said excitedly, "Two bathtubs, just one per day, let's take a bath in both, right?"

Li Luo: "...Can you be more ambitious? Why are you still thinking about the bathtub when you come to Qiongzhou? Can't you just look at the sea more?"

"Can't we have them all? They don't conflict with each other." Xu Youyu couldn't wait any longer. He slipped back to the bedroom from the balcony and ran to the bathroom. He used the shower head to clean the bathtub first, and then started to run hot water. "It even has rose petals here! It also comes with essential oils for bathing and other things."

Li Luo became more and more moved by what she said. He walked to the bathroom door and saw her busying around there. Some hot water had already accumulated at the bottom of the bathtub.

But in the end, the advice of editor Qianzhou came to his mind, and he finally restrained himself to avoid making mistakes, and turned back to the desk in the bedroom.

He took out the laptop computer that Yan Zhusheng lent him, the mechanical keyboard that Xu Youyu gave him, and the mouse that Ying Chanxi bought for him a while ago from his backpack and placed them on the desk.

After everything was ready, Li Luo sat down at the desk and started typing.

Xu Youyu came out of the bathroom and saw Li Luo typing away on the keyboard, so he felt embarrassed to disturb him.

After taking some things out of his suitcase, Xu Youyu rolled his eyes, opened the curtains outside the floor-to-ceiling glass of the bathroom, then walked into the bathroom and closed the curtains inside.

Then she took off her clothes, wrapped her hair with a towel, ran hot water into the bathtub, and took a shower in the shower.

Hearing the sound of water dripping in the bathroom, Li Luo couldn't help but stop typing, and a beautiful scene suddenly emerged in his mind.

Fortunately, he was determined, and after using the memory palace to play a song "Descendants of the Dragon" in his mind, he was finally able to suppress some of the evil thoughts in his heart and return to the state of typing.

The book "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" has taken almost a year and a half to write, and the word count has reached 370 million, not far from the 400 million word mark.

But thanks to Li Luo's rich water and pulling skills, until now, the hero has not had any "breakthrough" progress with any of the heroines.

So much so that many readers complained in the comment section that the protagonist was an impotent eunuch.

Li Luo was not surprised by this. He thought to himself that he hadn't even had meat yet, so why was the protagonist in the book in such a hurry?
This matter will have to wait.

Moreover, ever since "I'm Really Not a Celebrity" became a hit, Li Luo has made sufficient preparations for the subsequent plot outline.

The protagonist Li Yang is a man who thrives in music, variety shows, TV dramas, and movies.

The three female protagonists respectively occupied the sections of music, TV dramas and movies, and from time to time they appeared on a variety show with Li Yang, stirring up ambiguous rumors and making fans support the couple.

Li Luo was not in a hurry to let Li Yang's status and reputation rise too quickly, and always maintained a stable and slow growth rate.

So much so that now it is almost four million words, Li Yang's status in the entertainment industry is still flourishing, but it is still far from reaching the top.

If this number of words is distributed to each section, it is actually just under one million words. When you calculate it this way, it is not that long.

Li Luo estimated that if he could continue to control his progress in this way, he would not be able to finish writing until he graduated from high school.

Of course, he didn't really want to finish it.

because……

Not only can he collaborate with "I'm Really Not a Star" on any work he wants to produce in the future.

Even if other people need it, they can ask him for publicity.

This is not his imagination, but someone has already wanted to do this.

From Chongran Culture, someone approached Li Guohong a while ago, and surprisingly, they didn't ask for a song, but hoped to collaborate with Chongran.

I hope Chongran can write one of their upcoming songs into "I'm Really Not a Star" to create an internal and external linkage.

Li Luo asked his father to find out the content of the song, and it was one of those songs that he had never heard of in his previous life, so he politely declined it on the grounds that it didn't quite fit the plot.

But if there really is a song that will become extremely popular in the future and comes to Li Luo for promotion, then Li Luo is not out of the question.

After all, it is impossible for him to copy all the good songs by himself.

In addition to this, some singers who want to become popular again can also find Li Luo and make their old songs popular again through Li Luo's book.

Because many people have discovered that whenever Li Luo writes about old songs in his book, within an hour, he can see large numbers of readers visiting the comment section of the song on QQ Music.

What's more, Li Luo's book "I'm Really Not a Star", as well as this website and channel are all flourishing. As long as he keeps writing, they will provide him with generous royalties.

It's just like a certain school beauty novel, which has been serialized for more than ten years and has tens of millions of words. People outside are saying whether some kind of minimum guarantee contract has been signed.

In fact, it is simply because there is always money to be made on the channel side. Although the old bookworms can't stand it anymore, there will always be newbies.

As long as it occupies a traffic exposure position in the channel, the first book that novice readers will read in the future will most likely be a channel king like "I'm Really Not a Celebrity".

Li Luo never thought that her writing skills could compare with a talented woman like Xu Youyu.

The current achievements are entirely due to the rich materials provided by the Memory Palace, the entertainment skills strategies and templates summarized by the big guys in later generations, and the hype of plagiarized songs combined with Yuan Wanqing.

If he really had to do it again and publish a new book exactly the same, Li Luo was very sure that the results would probably not be as good as they are now.

After reading a book, Li Luo no longer plans to write books for the rest of his life. At most, he will pick up some creative ideas from future online novels, tell Xu Youyu about them, and then let his dear senior sister study them.

When he goes to college, he can use his spare money to invest in some stocks that are guaranteed to make money in the future, and he will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

If I really want to write another book, it will be purely for my own interest and hobby, and whether or not I make money is secondary.

As Li Luo was thinking about these things, his typing speed slowed down a lot.

At this moment, he heard the sound of glass knocking behind him, which made him subconsciously turn his head to look.

As a result, he saw a figure standing behind the tightly closed light-colored curtains in the bathroom, which was separated from the bedroom by only a glass window. As Li Luo looked over, the slender figure quickly squatted down and dived into the bathtub, leaving only the head exposed.

The next second, the curtains inside were suddenly pulled open, revealing the true appearance of the bathroom.

At this time, Xu Youyu's shoulders were exposed, her arms resting on the edge of the bathtub, her chin resting on her arms, her head tilted, and she looked at Li Luo with a red smile.

I don’t know if this rosy face is caused by the hot water or what.

Li Luo sat on the chair. From his current perspective, he could only see a small section of the water surface, which was not clear as it was rippling with the water.

But even so, just looking at the white and tender arms exposed at this moment was enough for Li Luo to imagine the seductive scene in the bathtub.

However, after only a few seconds of such a beautiful view, Xu Youyu blushed and pulled the curtains again.

Just at the moment of pulling it up, because his arm was raised, Li Luo caught a glimpse of a stunning scene. Even if it was just the tip of the iceberg, it was truly spectacular.

It was enough for Li Luo to watch and savor it again and again in his memory palace.

"Senior, I'm typing."

"I know." Xu Youyu said with a smile in the bathroom, "Isn't it because your typing speed has slowed down?"

"That's not why you seduced me."

"What's wrong with a girlfriend seducing her husband?" Xu Youyu snorted, "If you have the guts, come in and join me. I definitely won't resist~"

Li Luo: “…”

Xu Youyu's words were so destructive that Li Luo was silent for a moment. After a fierce struggle in his mind, he barely controlled his impulse: "Hurry up and soak for ten minutes. It's not good for your health to soak for too long."

"I know~" Xu Youyu responded, "But you really don't want to come in?"

"……No."

"You hesitated. It looks like you still want to come in."

“I’m typing.”

"Hello!" There was the sound of the curtains being opened again.

Li Luo subconsciously turned his head and saw that the curtains were pulled closed by Xu Youyu again.

Xu Youyu's cheerful laughter came from the bathroom. Li Luo's brows twitched and he really wanted to rush in and kill her on the spot.

In the end, he had no choice but to take out his headphones and put them on to block out the interference from Xu Youyu.

Upon seeing this, Xu Youyu immediately lost interest and quietly took a bath in it.

Not long after, the sound of water dripping from the shower could be heard in the bathroom again.

Li Luo was typing seriously with music playing in his headphones, and he didn't pay attention to the noise in the bathroom.

Then after a while, Li Luo felt someone patting his shoulder.

Before he could turn his head, a soft body came up to him, two white and tender arms wrapped around his neck, took off his headphones, and the hot air blew into his ears. Xu Youyu said softly, "I'm done, it's your turn now."

Li Luo only felt his ears itchy and his back soft. He turned his head and saw that Xu Youyu was wearing a white bathrobe provided by the hotel.

At this moment, he was very doubtful whether Xu Youyu was wearing any clothes under his bathrobe.

"Okay. I'll go take a shower." Li Luo stood up from his seat and subconsciously glanced at Xu Youyu's wet feet in slippers, then glanced covertly at the chest of his bathrobe that was bulging.

The next second, he met Xu Youyu's half-smile and half-smile eyes and coughed immediately.

"If you want to see it so much, why didn't you come in just now?" Xu Youyu said with a smile, "What's our relationship? If you want to see it, you can see it however you want."

Li Luo took a deep breath, turned and walked towards the bathroom.

Seeing this, Xu Youyu, who was standing behind him, quickly smiled and reminded him, "The bath water in the bathtub is still there for you. This bathtub has a constant temperature function and it's still hot."

"And I went in after taking a shower. The water is very clean. You can also take a bath after taking a shower."

"But don't drink it secretly. I put some essential oils and other things given by the hotel in it. You can't drink it carelessly."

After hearing what Xu Youyu said, Li Luo almost stumbled when he walked into the bathroom.

After actually walking into the bathroom, Li Luo looked at the bathtub on the right and found that the bath water was indeed still there.

I walked over and felt the water temperature. It was quite hot. It should be comfortable to take a bath in it.

And...it was the one Xu Youyu had just soaked.

Li Luo swallowed, shook his head quickly, took off his clothes in a hurry, and went to the shower room to take a shower.

After finishing the shower, Li Luo glanced at the bathtub over there hesitantly, but finally couldn't resist the temptation and walked to the side of the bathtub.

After all, the constant temperature function of the bathtub is always on. If it is not used, it would be a bit of a waste.

Li Luo comforted himself in this way, then stretched out one foot and stepped in, and then the other foot.

When his whole body was immersed in the water, Li Luo immediately closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking that Xu Youyu had also been in here just now, the stunning glimpse just now automatically emerged in his memory palace, and Li Luo suddenly felt his whole body stiff.

It seems that even the water smells sweet.

Fortunately, he was still relatively rational. He only soaked for a few minutes before coming out, draining the water, taking another shower, changing into his underwear and bathrobe, and then coming out.

At this time, Xu Youyu was actually sitting obediently at the desk, typing, which surprised Li Luo.

But when Xu Youyu saw Li Luo coming out, he immediately stood up from his seat, approached Li Luo with an ambiguous look, sniffed him gently, and then said with a smile: "Did you take a bath?"

"……how do you know?"

"It has the faint scent of essential oils." Xu Youyu smiled proudly, "It seems that the body is still very honest~"

“I just don’t want to waste it.”

"So you drank it all?"

"Senior, you deserve a beating."

"Shh." Xu Youyu raised a finger and gently touched Li Luo's mouth, then leaned forward and whispered, "Don't call me senior sister, what should I call you?"

"Wife?"

"My husband is so good." Xu Youyu threw herself into Li Luo's arms, resting her head on his chest, and smiled softly, "Do I still deserve a beating now?"

“…A little bit.”

"Then hit me, but be gentle." Xu Youyu leaned close to his ear and whispered pitifully, "I'm afraid of pain."

Being entangled by such a goblin, Li Luo took a breath immediately. The big hand that was supposed to slap Xu Youyu's butt had no strength after it landed, and instead became like a caress.

Xu Youyu, who was wearing a bathrobe, blushed slightly and rolled her eyes at him seductively: "Is this your husband's punishment? You really do care about me."

Li Luo's breathing became more rapid and he hugged her tighter.

The two separated until his cell phone suddenly rang.

Xu Youyu took the phone from the desk for him, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "It's Xixi calling."

"Oh, then I'll take it." Li Luo took the phone and was about to answer it.

Xu Youyu on the other side held his forehead helplessly: "In the end, Xixi made it seem like we were having an affair again."

"Well... you can think about it from another angle." Li Luo said shamelessly, "It's normal for a daughter to call when a couple is traveling, right?"

"Haha~" Xu Youyu laughed so hard that his body shook with joy when he heard this, "Then you answer it and listen to what your precious daughter has to say."

As he spoke, Xu Youyu threw himself into Li Luo's arms and pressed the connect button for him personally.
