On a Saturday night, there were sobbing sounds in the Essay section of 'Qiantang Evening News'.

There were 12 editors in addition to the editor-in-chief Shao Dong. Most of the crying people were women but two young male editors were also included in that group.

Shao Dong and Zhao Xinde were editors in their 30s and 40s, so they didn't cry as they had seen and experienced many things in their lives.

But even Shao Dong's eyes were reddened.

Since 6 o'clock in the afternoon, when a manuscript with 200k words named 'Miracle in Cell No.7' was sent to them, they sat on their chairs and didn't even move to drink water as they were completely immersed in the story.

If Chen Huan were here he would think it understandable for them to act this way.

After 'Miracle in Cell No.7' was written, the Shui family were the first to read it and a lot of crying ensued as their appearance were even more pitiful.

Even Xia He, who liked Chen Huan very much, called him cruel, not to mention Shui Qianyu who nearly gave him a beating.

"Teacher Chu, you're going to far..." A young female editor was like the Shui family as she muttered while sobbing, "How can you be so cruel? This story shouldn't be like this! Why not give the father and daughter pair a good ending? It wouldn't be too late for the daughter to save him even if the father stayed in prison for twenty years!"

"Nonsense!" Another male editor rebutted, "Teacher Chu's ending is the best! This is what make 'Miracle in Cell No.7' so great!"

"That's right, it was written in a way so that it can expose the hypocrisy of society and let the people reflect on it." Zhang Xinde rubbed his eyes and gave Chen Huan a bitter smile, "Teacher Chu, I'm still saying the same thing. You're still so young, how can you write such a profound story that can touch and capture people hearts this easily?"

"It's god helping me." Chen Huan could only explain it like this with a smile.

"But Teacher Chu..." Shao Dong slowly spoke up, "Why is such a good story not being published in China but in South Korea? It has to be translated first, it's too troublesome!"

"Do you know the recent news about 'Love Letter'?" Chen Huan asked.

"I know about it! It was all over the internet!" A male editor with glasses in his 20s exclaimed, "But I support Teacher Chu! Because I'm a superfan of Han Dong'er!"

"There's also things you didn't know yet." Chen Huan coughed a bit, "Let me reintroduce myself, I'm Chen Huan, I also play the main male role in 'Love Letter'."

"Huh!?"

Shao Dong and the others were completely taken aback.

Then they looked at each other.

But the next moment, a female editor suddenly shot up and said, "Alright! Director Zhu sure is bold! Teacher Chu as the leader actor can attract many young girls! How can students from film school be compared with you? Unless it was Su Mo from 20 years ago!"

Chen Huan had no doubts about his handsomeness.

So he just smiled at the female editors compliment and said, "So that's why I'm deeply connected to this movie. For reasons that I can't disclose, 'Miracle in Cell No.7' must be published in South Korea first and not here."

Since Chen Huan already said so, there was no point for Shao Dong and the others to try to persuade him.

"Alright!"

Having already seen how beautiful 'Miracle in Cell No.7' was, Shao Dong directly agreed and said, "Contacting a South Korean publishing house to translate and publish this isn't a big deal for our company. It just so happens that I have a friend that works in the 'Xinghua News Agency' in South Korea, I'll ask him if he has some connections. If not, we'll use the company's resources to search for a publishing house."
