Chapter 402: I

"You shouldn't write books about the Hokage anymore."

Tuan Cang said, his head aching a little.

"Free promotion for you, isn't that fine?"

Lian Ye didn't know his books were so good that matchmakers kept arriving in endless streams.

Even his doorstep was about to be trampled.

Yuanfei Rizhan suppressed a laugh at the side, as Tuan Cang's cold stare swept over him.

He quickly bowed his head and pretended to review the documents.

"In any case, don't write about me anymore; if you have to, write about Ri Zhan."

Tuan Cang said in a hoarse, muffled tone.

Who made Lian Ye the author of this book?

He could only remind him not to use himself as a model any longer.

Even if he writes, it must be about decisive, battle‑hardened strongmen.

Not the Hokage who chats with the heroine in those reddening dialogues every day!

He worries that Lian Ye might write another world‑defying work.

Thus he directly told him not to write about himself.

"Alright, next time someone else will write it." Lian Ye did not refuse.

Anyway, the book is already finished.

The next book will be "Uchiha and Senju's Forbidden Love".

As for the story's model, of course it's the Mountain Top Cave Man who lived together for decades.

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama.

When the time comes, feminizing one of them will surely make the work explode in popularity!

Tsundere Uchiha and goofy sweet Senju.

Tsk tsk, just thinking about it is thrilling!

Immersed in his creative brainstorming, Lian Ye gave no thought to what would happen if the matter were exposed.

He'd probably be cut by the towering blue Susanoo into a blood mist, right?

In the time that followed, Lian Ye threw himself back into the work's creation.

While plotting the story in his study, he no longer knew what heaven and earth were.

A few months later, Lian Ye's new book was successfully published.

Unsurprisingly, with the workings of capital and the work's own boost.

"Senju and Uchiha's Forbidden Love" exploded in popularity.

The heroine's model is Madara Uchiha, and the hero is Hashirama.

The aloof big‑sister Uchiha and the goofy sweet Senju.

Its level of viral fame even far surpasses the previous book.

For a while, the village women's after‑dinner talk couldn't avoid the big‑sister Uchiha and goofy sweet Senju.

Uchiha Clan Territory.

"Scoundrel!"

Uchiha Tanaka angrily ripped that "Senju and Uchiha's Forbidden Love" to shreds.

His expression on his face was as ugly as possible.

Someone actually dared to publicly defame the Uchiha Clan!

How could the Uchiha possibly regard the Senju as worthy?

What a joke!

"Find the author of this book," Uchiha Tanaka said with a sly expression.

He wants that clueless author to know the consequences of meddling with the Uchiha Clan!

"Yes!" the Uchiha clan members instantly turned and left.

They can't handle the village's higher‑ups, yet they still can't punish a novelist?

The Konoha Security Force is no joke.

They directly framed the novelist for spreading rumors, imprisoning them for ten or eight years.

Qianshou Feijian Residence.

"Bastard!"

Feijian's furious voice echoed from the study.

"Uncle, what happened?" Lian Ye entered the room out of curiosity.

In all these years, it's still the first time he's seen this old man so angry.

He didn't know exactly what had happened.

He saw Feijian holding a beautifully packaged book in his hand.

It was, astonishingly, the "Senju and Uchiha's Forbidden Love" he had written.

Lian Ye's expression froze instantly.

How could this old man be reading such a book?

Feijian's expression was feral.

This book actually depicts Senju and Uchiha together!

Having lived from the Warring States Period to the present, he simply cannot accept such a thing.

It's an utter disaster!

If it were true, they'd definitely be seized by members of both clans and dunked in a pig cage.

What a joke!

It's definitely a work the inherently evil Uchiha created to salvage their image!

The Uchiha heroine in the book is shaped into a cool yet caring big sister.

She has been loved by countless villagers.

It could indirectly change the reputation of Uchiha women in the village.

The author has nothing to do with the Uchiha; if I say that, who would believe it?

Qianshou Feijian feels there's no problem shaping Uchiha characters, but they can't be with Thousand Hands!

"Uncle, where did you get that book?" Lian Ye asked tentatively.

He didn't know whether this old kid realized he himself was the author of the book.

For a moment, he dared not speak recklessly.

"I bought it at a bookstore," Qianshou Feijian said in a deep voice.

Today, as usual, he headed to the nearby Laboratory, and along the way heard many people discussing Qianshou and the Uchiha.

After a bit of inquiry, he learned that someone had written a book about Qianshou and the Uchiha.

Out of curiosity, he went and bought a copy.

When he saw the title, he was instantly stunned.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he opened to the first page.

He skimmed a few lines and instantly flushed with anger.

Qianshou Feijian immediately lost any desire to conduct experiments, and returned to his study holding the book.

He then discovered the scene from earlier.

From the old kid's expression, Lian Ye guessed he probably didn't realize he himself was the original author.

He involuntarily let out a sigh of relief.

But Qianshou Feijian's next words made his hanging heart suddenly leap up.

"Kid, go tell Tuan Cang and have him help me find the author of this book."

Lian Ye: "…"

It's over, really over.

I will never write fanfiction again.

"Got it, Uncle."

He pretended nothing was amiss and calmly left the study.

Qianshou Feijian, seeing Lian Ye leave, glanced again at the novel in his hand.

After a moment of hesitation, he opened the novel again.

Setting aside the Uchiha and Qianshou background for now.

The writing itself is actually quite good.

Hokage Office.

"Tuan Cang, I'm going out to hide for a while; I won't be coming back during this period."

Lian Ye arrived at the office and greeted Tuan Cang.

Konoha Village is no longer a place to stay.

On his way to the office, he saw several Uchiha Clan's Members heading to the publishing house.

Without even thinking, it was clear they were there to inquire about the author's whereabouts.

He believed the Uchiha Clan would soon come to confront him.

On top of that, his home also harbored the raging Qianshou Feijian.

Lian Ye knew that returning would certainly bring no good outcome.

He planned to seek refuge with Ban Daye for a while.

He would return after the storm passes.

"Everything was fine, why leave?" Tuan Cang looked at Lian Ye, puzzled.

There must be a reason to go out, right?

"Don't mention it, the new book got too popular and was targeted by Qianshou and the Uchiha," Lian Ye said helplessly, "If I don't leave now, there won't be another chance later."

"Hmph, I told you not to write that kind of thing, yet you ignored me," Tuan Cang snorted.

"Who could have known it would turn out like this," Lian Ye muttered softly.

"I won't say more to you, I'm leaving now,"

He feared that if he didn't run, Qianshou Feijian and the Uchiha would arrive at the office.

Saying that, he hurriedly left the Hokage Office.

Sure enough, shortly after Lian Ye left,

Qianshou Feijian and Uchiha Tanaka pushed open the door and entered the office.

"Tuan Cang/Hokage, where is that Lian Ye kid?"

The two looked around but did not see Lian Ye's figure.

"Lian Ye just took on a long‑term mission, and has already left the village,"

"Damn, he got away!"
