Are You Sanqianli? Intellectual Property Collateral!

Late at night.

Tsukishima Rin had long since left.

Only the three of them remained quietly in the room.

Natsume Chikage was typing away on his computer.

Natsume Ruri and Kaga Resaki were drawing manga.

Although a comedy show was playing on the television, none of them had the heart to watch it. It merely served as background noise while they each went about their own work.

Kaga Kyoko looked surprised. "Chikage, you can write novels too?"

"That's quite unexpected."

"Once you finish one, could you let Auntie have a look?"

Natsume Chikage smiled. "Of
