"Let you publish it?"
Su Xiu revealed a puzzled expression.
"Su."
Bill explained," Adrian's family owns a publishing house called Lesley Stephen. It's not big, but it should be able to meet your publishing requirements.”
"I see."
Su Xiu's eyes revealed a hint of understanding.
Adrian's father, Lesley Stephen, was a famous writer in Britain.
However, Adrian's talent in this aspect was mediocre.
From the name of the publishing house, it could be seen that the influence of this publishing house depended entirely on Lesley Stephen himself.
When his father was still alive, he relied on his father's works.
The publishing house could still make a profit.
But after his death, the publishing firm lost its pillar.
Adrian was not good at management, and he was not good enough to support the publishing firm.
It was also not easy to convince other outstanding authors to publish in their own publishing house.
This directly led to a sharp drop in the publishing house's income.
If it weren't for the wealth left behind by Sir Lesley Stephen, the publishing house would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Even so, the publishing firm was on the verge of bankruptcy.
For this reason, Adrian even considered selling the publishing firm that could not make ends meet.
However, Su Xiu's appearance gave Adrian a chance to turn things around!
Even though Adrian was not particularly talented in literature, he was quite good at literature as the son of Lesley Stephen.
Therefore, he was very confident in his judgment.
He firmly believed that Su Xiu's " No Survivor " would definitely become a hit!
Therefore, he had to fight for the publishing rights of Su Xiu's works.
There was no need for Su Xiu to reject him.
After all, no matter what.
It was much more convenient to hand over the work to someone he knew to publish it than to find another publishing house.
"Of course I can leave it to you."
"As long as you don't take my royalties, Adrian," Su Xiu replied teasingly.”
"Absolutely not!"
Adrian could tell that Su Xiu was joking, but he still said solemnly,"In the name of Stephen!"”
He knew that Su Xiu might not care about the royalties at all.
He could easily give someone an injection for a thousand pounds, which was the money that an ordinary person could earn by not eating or drinking for decades.
The publishing house's share of the royalties was nothing to him.
However, to Adrian, it was an opportunity that could save the publishing firm!
Without a doubt, this was a huge favor.
It was so big that Adrian did not know how to repay it.
"Relax, buddy."
Su Xiu patted Adrian's shoulder and smiled." The manuscript is in your hands. Do you think I can snatch it back?”
"Phew."
Adrian heaved a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly. Ever since my father died, I've been supporting the family business alone. It's really making me a little breathless. Otherwise, I wouldn't have contracted that damned rabies.”
"Alone?"
"Adrian, don't you have a brother?" Su Xiuxiu asked curiously.”
"Brother? What brothers?"
"I'm the eldest and only son in my family," Adrian said helplessly. There are still two younger sisters below, but I can't put the burden of the family on them, right?”
"Is that so?"
Su Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly, deep in thought.
This was different from the original trajectory of history.
Because he had heard of Sir Lesley Stephen.
He also found out that Sir Lesley Stephen should have at least four sons and two daughters.
However, Adrian said that he was the only child.
Obviously, Adrian had no reason to lie to him.
In other words, this world might be a parallel world?
He had been guessing whether he had traveled back in time or to a parallel world.
Adrian's words had confirmed the possibility of a parallel universe.
"Ding!"
Just then, the doorbell rang again.
"I'll open the door."
Leah said immediately.
With that, the girl quickly ran to the entrance hall.
She thought that it was Adrian's impatient friends.
However, to his surprise, there was a beautiful girl in luxurious clothes standing at the door.
"Miss Cecilia?"
Leah looked at the girl in surprise.
This was because the other party was clearly the noble girl she had seen at the clothing store a week ago.
Cecilia Spencer Winston.
"I remember that your name is Leah, right?”
Cecilia looked at the girl in front of her and frowned." Is that guy at home?”
"Master is at home, but…"
Leah hesitated. There were other guests in the house.
"Let her in."
Su Xiu heard the movement at the front door and said indifferently.
"Humph."
Cecilia snorted and walked into the room with the two maids behind her.
"Adrian?"
Cecilia looked at the two people in the room, her face suspicious.
She was even more surprised when she saw Adrian.
"Miss Cecilia."
Adrian nodded and looked at Su Xiu." We'll take our leave then."”
Since Su Xiu had a guest, they could not stay any longer.
"Take care."
Su Xiu smiled as he sent the guest off.
After Adrian left, Su Xiu shifted his gaze to the haughty girl.
"Then,"
Su Xiu stopped smiling and said indifferently," What's the matter, Miss Cecilia?”
"Huh?"
Cecilia crossed her arms in front of her chest and said unhappily," I've been so busy applying for your patent this week that I couldn't even eat on time. How can you treat me like this?”
The more Cecilia spoke, the more she felt wronged.
Who was she running around for this week?!
"Has the patent application been approved?"
Su Xiu was slightly surprised.
There was no need to take an exam to apply for a patent, but the process was still necessary.
With the efficiency of Great Britain, it would take at least two to three months.
It's only been a week and he's already down?
"Hmph, of course."
Cecilia said proudly," I'll do it myself. It's a piece of cake.”
"I see."
Su Xiu was deep in thought. He suddenly asked," Excuse me, but what's the relationship between the director of the patent office and you, Cecilia?”
"It doesn't matter."
Cecilia was a little confused by Su Xiu's question, but she thought for a while and said," But he seems to be very familiar with my cousin. He was very enthusiastic when he saw me.”
"As expected."
Su Xiu's mouth twitched.
He knew it would be like this.
Cecilia's cousin, Winston Winston, was the Minister of Commerce.
Coincidentally, the patent office was under the Ministry of Commerce.
In other words, Winston was the boss of the director of the patent office.
Cecilia was going to apply for a patent. How could she not be fast?
Adrian applied for a medical license in a week, and Cecilia applied for a patent in a week.
