Chapter 4

Now that he had found a way to get the promise, the next step was to work hard to fulfill it.

Han Ruila treated the ordinary exams in junior high school as the college entrance exam. She wore a headband that said "Victory" and spent every day in the study room.

She gave herself an ultimatum — Only success!

Failure was not allowed!

In her previous life, Han Ruila's grades had always been above average. However, she had never won first place in junior high and senior high school.

She was quite diligent in her studies. Even if she didn't attend cram school, she still got good grades in the college entrance exam.

However, her father kept saying that she would definitely do better if she attended cram school.

In fact, it was hard to say. If she didn't want to save the tuition fee so that she could buy a good violin for her sister, she might not have studied so hard.

Everyone knew that attending cram school in H Country was far more useful than attending school. Han Min-ki knew this, so he used a stick to force Han Ruila to attend it. Han Ruila also knew this, so she tried her best to study.

Han Ruila was already very satisfied that she could be admitted to a good university.

If there was anything that Han Ruila had to say about her writing experience, it would definitely be patience.

In order to write, she would deliberately download typing software to train her hand speed. During the conception stage, she would collect a lot of information and then carefully divide the outline of the story. She could sit in front of the computer from morning to night. Even if she was reading books or watching movies, she was silently learning how to change the scene, lay the foundation for the plot, and other people's language skills.

Of course, she was willing to persist because she liked to write, but she couldn't persist in writing just by liking.

Han Ruila was not a study maniac who "Studying makes me happy," but in order to achieve her goal, she could give 100% or even 200% of her effort.

On weekends, when Han Ruilin was still asleep, she would go out with a book. When Han Ruilin fell asleep, she would quietly come back.

When Han Ruilin woke up and found that there was no one in the room, she thought that Han Ruila had never come back. However, her family members told her that Han Ruila had gone out again before she woke up.

This was the first time she had seen such a situation. Han Ruilin was stunned!

Not to mention her, even Han Min-ki and Hong Se-jeong were in disbelief.

At first, they were surprised by the child's obsession with the phone. However, they thought that Han Ruila would only be hot-headed for a day or two. They did not expect her to persist!

Han Ruilin did not believe that her sister could endure studying for such a long time. She thought that she must have been secretly sleeping in the study room!

Therefore, she secretly followed her sister to take a look. However, after observing for two to three hours, she only saw her sister sitting there reading and writing. Even her posture rarely changed.

After watching for a while, she felt sleepy and slept soundly in the study room. When she returned home, she told her parents that her sister was really studying there.

In fact, Han Min-ki and the others did believe that Han Ruila was really determined to study hard. This was because her eyes were even glancing at the words when she was eating. That serious look was definitely not something that could be faked.

Han Min-ki was touched by his daughter's diligence. He asked his wife to make something delicious for his daughter. He also asked his wife to tell his daughter that she could not be impatient with her studies. She had to strike a balance between work and rest.

He then turned around and lectured Han Ruilin. He said that she only knew how to play every day and did not learn from her sister.

Hong Se-jeong did not know why he was so agitated. No matter how hard she worked, it was still for the phone. Did he really think that his daughter had a high level of self-awareness?

However, as parents, their hearts were still warm when they saw that their daughter was willing to work hard.

Hong Se-jeong still advised her daughter not to work so hard. The quality of sleep was very important for people of her age.

In fact, Han Ruila did not want to work so hard. However, she had graduated from middle school many years ago. What she had learned had long been returned to her teacher.

She was not the tenth or third in the school. She was the first in the school!

If she did not work hard, wouldn't the matter of the phone be ruined?

Without a phone, how could she write web novels?

Therefore, Han Ruila could only sigh. She buried her head in the pile of exercise books and papers, hoping for a miracle.

Perhaps the high-intensity study caused her to be a little obsessed. Han Ruila dreamed that she fell asleep in the study room. Then, she woke up and continued reading. However, after a while, she woke up from the dream and found that she had fallen asleep in the study room again.

She kept waking up and reading like this. She did not know how many times she repeated this, but at a certain moment, she finally understood her situation.

She was lying in her room and had a high fever in the middle of the night.

It was Rui Lin who called her parents. She knew that they were taking her temperature and putting on a fever patch.

In a daze, she even got up to take medicine once. After lying down, she heard her father telling her to rest well. He would buy her a new phone.

Han Ruila could not help but feel warm in her heart. However, she did not give up on the idea of getting first place.

There was a saying, "Without destruction, there can be no construction." With Han Ruila's hard work, she actually got first place miraculously!

Her family and even the neighbors were very happy for her. However, Han Ruila was very calm.

No matter what, she had experienced the college entrance examination. It was not difficult for her to understand the knowledge of junior high school.

However, it was not easy to get first place. She was really reading even in her dreams. Perhaps even the heavens were a little moved by her effort.

In any case, she finally got the promised phone.

Han Ruila did not choose an expensive one. The cheap knockoff phone did not cost much. Therefore, Han Min-ki did not feel the pinch at all when he spent the money.

Han Ruila thought very simply. She only needed the function of storing text and opening web pages.

After getting the phone, she could not wait to start her writing career. There was a notebook in the phone. She did not even need to use the software and just used it directly.

For her first novel, Han Ruila decided to create a big IP.

She had already thought of the content of the story. Now, her thoughts did not stop when she started to write.

Only God knew how long she had endured the feeling of unstoppable inspiration when she was working on the outline. She had waited for this moment.

She had not touched the keyboard for a long time. Now, she was so excited that she was trembling. She was really hopeless.

When immersed in the world of online literature, time always passed very quickly. Han Ruila only wrote for an hour. After an hour, she obediently took the initiative to hand over the phone.

This was the promise she made with her grandmother. At most, she would play with it for an hour every day.

Now that smartphones had so many functions, her family was naturally afraid that she would be addicted to it.

Actually … The knockoff phone's memory was pitifully small. What could it be used for?

After handing over the phone, Han Ruila hammered the floor in the room.

The feeling of being forced to stop writing while having a high time was too painful!

She felt that she could still write for an afternoon!

In the previous hour, she felt that she had already written enough words for a chapter.

In her previous life, she had dealt with smartphones for so many years. Even if she used her feet to type, her speed would not be slow.

Han Ruila was quite satisfied with the progress of saving a chapter a day.

She planned to save 20 to 30 chapters before publishing it on the website she had registered in her previous life. She would still use the original pen name — Her Complexion Is As White As Snow.

When she came up with the name, she did not think too much. After all, at that time, who knew that she would continue to write?

But when she remembered that she was born in a snowy day, she thought of a pen name related to snow.

She went online to check and found this in the mess of notifications.

Sunset was a small white flower that bloomed in the evening. Her Complexion Is As White As Snow meant that the color of the sunset flower was as white as snow.

Han Ruila felt that this name was not bad, so she used it.

Although she regretted it later, after using it for so many years, she had feelings for it.

Speaking of this name, she could not help but think of her previous life. A large part of the reason why she and her ex-boyfriend got together was because of a novel she had written.

When they met for the first time, her ex-boyfriend told her that he was a fanatic of that novel.

Originally, he had only read the manga adaptation of the novel. Later, because the manga was updated too slowly, he was anxious to know the follow-up, so he read the novel. As a result, he became her fan.

Han Ruila usually acted very stiff when meeting people for the first time, but the other party did not seem to feel anything at all. The natural warmth that emanated from him made Han Ruila feel very magical.

Since then, the two of them had been in contact frequently. She did not know when they started to have feelings for each other.

If she had to list the reasons why she could not give up that pen name, he would definitely be one of them.

When they met for the first time, he walked behind her and asked tentatively, "Excuse me … are you the author of Her Complexion Is As White As Snow?"

The voice that fell into her ears was warm and gentle. It was like a cello, with a strange attraction. She was pulled to turn her head. In an instant, she met the person's eyes that were as bright as gemstones. She could not help but be stunned.

It was only for a moment, but she felt like she was destined to be in a trance.

It was always inconvenient to use a phone to write. The first problem was the problem of losing manuscripts.

After all, counterfeit phones were cheap. Although it was passable when she first got it, all kinds of small problems arose after using it for a long time.

For example, the phone lagged, could not be opened, could not flash, did not have enough memory, and could not press the buttons properly. Han Ruila could type another one or two hundred words while waiting for the page to load. This made her, who was used to using high-end electronic products, extremely mentally and physically exhausted.

The most painful thing was that the manuscripts that she had worked so hard to save might all be lost when she flashed out.

She was so angry that she wanted to roll on the ground every time!

In the past, because of the strong support of coding software, Han Ruila did not have to worry about losing manuscripts.

However, after a few "bloody lessons", she learned to be obedient. Every ten seconds, she would click on the save button.

Because the speed was much slower, Han Ruila took a month to save the manuscripts.

Then, on this day, she completed all the registration procedures with a devout attitude like a Christian worshiper. She registered the pen name "Her Complexion Is As White As Snow" on a literature website.

According to the procedures that she was already familiar with in her previous life, Han Ruila directly applied to publish a new novel. After filling in the title, category, copywriting, and other relevant information, she published three chapters in a row.

After doing all this, her heart settled down as if she had completed an important task.
