Kato watched silently without saying a word.

After leaving Li Nian's classroom, Jianshan touched his face and felt a little hot. He thought: "It was just a joke... Why do I feel weird? It seems that the joke was a bit too much."

Chapter 442: The Connection with Evil Forces

It's noon again.

As expected, Senior Kasumigaoka is here again.

Li Nian also gradually got used to it.

This time he learned his lesson. He had had enough of bread and other things that did not bring him any dreams, so he simply spent a little more time in the morning preparing his own lunch.

But the errands still had to be done, and Li Nian also had to buy her own drinks.

Although it was logical to leave Kasumigaoka alone, Li Nian did not do so because he knew that the senior was coming for him.

Every time he came to Kasumigaoka, he really had something important to talk to him about, not just to have fun.

In addition to helping Li Nian solve Wu Geng's confusion and giving her guidance on her writing.

Kasumigaoka also has many things he wants to communicate with Li Nian.

Now that she has started writing the script, she is concerned about the script outline. Countless questions arise while writing, and she will discuss various details with Li Nian for better quality.

It is necessary to review the content of the events that have been written, and to further clarify the ideas and accumulate knowledge about the events that are about to be written.

Moreover, Li Nian is much better at writing about men's ideals and principles, their views on major issues, the principles and details of how they behave in daily life, various historical allusions, combat skills and mentality, etc.

As mentioned before, when writing the main storyline outline prepared by Li Nian, even the personal lines will inevitably involve a lot of these elements. Kasumigaoka, who has only written youth romance novels, rarely touches on these themes.

Li Nian asked Xia Zhiqiu to ask him more questions and to take the initiative to learn. Li Nian reminded her and she realized her shortcomings. She did not resist new challenges and was very active in learning to write about these things that she had not been exposed to much before. She also consulted a lot of information, thought about related writing methods, and learned from other people's articles... However, compared to asking Li Nian directly and getting his detailed explanations and guidance, Xia Zhiqiu always felt that her own efforts seemed to have little effect.

No matter what the question is, it seems that Li Nian has already come up with an answer. Even if he is asked a question that he has never thought about, it will not take long for him to look up information and sort out a solution more efficiently than himself.

There is someone around you who has mastered the writing methods of various things that you don’t understand, has his own system in his mind, and is willing to teach you everything he knows. He is also a good teacher who can explain things clearly and help you to understand them. Why not make good use of him?

Xia Zhiqiu is dedicated to writing and is willing to do research. Her original purpose of contacting Li Nian was that she felt that this person's articles contained something that she lacked. She wanted to obtain his knowledge and techniques to improve her own abilities. Now that she is already familiar with Li Nian, Xia Zhiqiu does not hesitate to throw almost all her questions to Li Nian and seek answers. Li Nian will live up to her expectations and give satisfactory answers.

Chatting with Li Nian made Xia Zhiqiu feel like he had seen a wider world and more lofty images. His horizons were broadened, his mind became more active, and he had an endless supply of inspiration.

For Li Nian, writing about love, the daily life of youth, and the delicate inner world of girls is really difficult. After being told by Kasumigaoka that he did not understand love, he was self-aware and wanted to ask Kasumigaoka for advice. In this regard, Kasumigaoka was indeed a good teacher of his. A girl's heart is so delicate and fragile that she could help him understand all kinds of emotions and love in the world from a girl's perspective.

When the two of them communicate, they have almost endless topics to talk about. While sharing what they have, they are both learning from each other's valuable knowledge and applying it to their own benefit. They can also often come up with new things together from the collision of two schools of thought, share their gains, and both feel that they have grown through the communication with each other.

The two of them had a great conversation and could easily understand each other's words and what they wanted to convey.

Being taught by these two people, Wu Geng felt that he could not keep up with their thinking.

It’s not that Li Nian or Xia Zhiqiu’s explanations are obscure and difficult to understand, but Wu Geng himself always has to spend a lot of time digesting their concise and clear teachings, and always has to ask several times. Sometimes he may understand the meaning, but find it difficult to meet their requirements. When he actually tries to revise his own manuscript according to their methods, it is extremely difficult.

She found it a little hard to understand. Are there really people in the world who can understand things at a glance?

But this is the feeling of the communication between Li Nian and Kasumigaoka.

While Wu Geng was revising his own manuscript in great pain, he was also more or less eavesdropping on the conversation between the two people.

I always feel that they seem to have shared clear ideas in a few sentences, explained the context of things, understood the writing methods thoroughly, and researched new things, which are all very secretive to me.

These two people seemed to have thought it through clearly. There were always happy expressions on their faces as if they had gained something. They were chatting happily, which made Wu Geng feel that his own distress seemed stupid.

She knew that this was because she did not have the "talent" of these two people.

Wu Geng always behaves very arrogantly and confidently, as if she thinks of herself as a genius, but in fact, she has long understood that she is not a genius, and has long understood that she does not have any talent, and this is a matter of course.

Geniuses are always rare. They seem to grasp certain key things naturally, so they can easily achieve what others cannot achieve even after working hard for a long time.

The two people around me are much stronger than me in writing because they are geniuses... and they are also hardworking and self-disciplined.

Wu Geng was self-aware and didn't think he could compare with these two people. However, when he glanced at the man and woman next to him who were chatting happily, he felt even more uncomfortable than when these two were flirting and playing the "simulated love" game, and a feeling of jealousy arose spontaneously.

She also wanted to chat with Li Nian like that, to show him how great she was, to have him show her admiration and smile at her. That must be a great feeling...

Wu Geng realized more clearly the shameful thoughts that had sprouted in his mind. He thought to himself with self-mockery.

But I just wasn’t qualified.

People who have no ability are not worthy of thinking about things beyond their ability.

Jealous? What are you jealous of? How can you project such ugly emotions towards these two people?

They are teaching you tirelessly, hoping that you can achieve your dreams and become a better person.

Besides, what's the point of being jealous? Can it make you stronger?

Work hard, yes, people without talent can only work harder.

For example, only after I have crossed this hell can I usher in a new life...

But it’s so difficult, so difficult…

Make changes to your past practices.

Try new ways of writing.

Learning knowledge that you are not interested in.

When you look up information and read articles with the purpose of research, even reading becomes a painful thing.

The writing process is really painful... Is it such a painful thing to be dissatisfied with the status quo and want to write better? I really didn't know it before.

Have they gone through this too... or do geniuses simply not need to go through this process?

Ah, I'm thinking about unnecessary things again... No, I have to focus, I have to work harder, I can't let down others who have put in so much effort to help and express their expectations... I have to pass the essay contest.

Well, Wu Geng feels a bit of a headache.

Never mind. Such trivial matters don't matter.

Wu Geng was immersed in writing. There were too many problems that she needed to correct. When she was revising such a manuscript, she had a gnashing teeth expression. The slight discomfort in her body made her frown more painfully, but it was not obvious.

But someone still noticed.

Kato asked in confusion: "Gogen-san, what's wrong with you? You don't look very well."

Wu Geng was startled and shook his head hurriedly: "It's okay."

Li Nian was talking to Kasumigaoka about the male protagonist, Kinoshita Shin. Facing the girl who was also aspiring to write but was not making good progress, he should be tolerant and encouraging, and pay more attention to the other person's stubbornness. At this time, he heard Kato's words, and the discussion with Kasumigaoka came to an abrupt end, and he turned to look at Gogen.

"Don't look at it, it's nothing. I've had a scary expression for a long time." Wu Geng said calmly.

Li Nian looked carefully for a while. Wu Geng had already calmed down his expression. He lowered his head and continued to bury himself in writing. So he couldn't tell anything. So he smiled and said with a bit of gloating: "Especially during the period of revising the article recently, right?"

"Thanks to you."

Li Nian didn't intend to deny this at all, nor did he say anything stupid for your own good. He just restrained his playful expression and said, "But there's no need to push yourself too hard. Just relax and do it. Look at your bitter and resentful expression. Is it really that serious? You've wasted such a lovely face."

"Go to hell, go away, don't bother me." Wu Geng was getting annoyed,

"You are such a girl who doesn't know how to respect teachers... But I still want to remind you, don't do something stupid like staying up late to write, right? You have to make up for the sleep you missed. If you are not alert, you will only make slower changes."

"I understand. Don't worry that I'll be like Kasumigaoka-senpai over there and lose my sense of propriety."

"Oh, I'm speechless." Kasumigaoka was embarrassed.

"That's good. Your health is your capital. The heavier the task, the more you need to balance work and rest. You're working very hard, a little too hard. Don't work so hard that you suddenly collapse." Li Nian reminded, "I've seen people like this."

Wu Geng said coldly: "Don't worry about me, don't underestimate me, even if I work hard until I fall down, I will change for you to see."

Li Nian sucked in a breath, fearing this kind of thought... But seeing that Wu Geng had made sure to rest well and eat and drink well, he felt that it shouldn't be a big problem, so he didn't say anything more.

You have to give in order to gain. Wu Geng is such a hard-working person. If she wants to get what she wants, she needs to do so.

Li Nian never intended to discourage this resilience, but only intended to correct it when her efforts were in the wrong direction.

"Okay, but remember to tell me if you have anything to say."

"...What if I want you to look at me more?" Wu Geng asked for some unknown reason.

"What are you talking about?"

Wu Geng was a little disappointed, thinking that Li Nian didn't take it seriously, but he heard Li Nian continue to speak in confusion.

"I've been watching you the whole time."

Wu Geng was stunned, and his heart was slightly warmed. He raised his head and wanted to say something nice that was not so sarcastic, but he saw that this guy had turned his head back to chat with Senior Sister Kasumigaoka. He immediately got angry and muttered, "What the hell did you see?"

In fact, Li Nian also glanced at her sideways at this time and shook his head. This child didn't know that she was keeping an eye on all directions and was looking at everyone around her out of the corner of her eyes.

He doesn't know either, Wu Geng thought at this moment.

This idiot must not know that what I want is attention.

Well, there’s nothing I can do, because I haven’t said it…how can I have the nerve to say it out loud?

……

……

It's another early morning.

Last night, Kanda found Li Nian with a newly written game production plan. Li Nian talked with him all night while typing, and gave him a few more suggestions on the game to be made.

For example, from the perspective of saving costs, controlling production difficulty and game size, there is no need to pursue overly detailed art, and a pixel style will be fine. I also learned that Kanda has started making the game with Ryunosuke according to the production process taught online.

Li Nian recommended Kanda to do this because he likes playing side-scrolling action games. He knew that Kanda would come to him for advice more often. At this moment, while making breakfast and lunch, he was actively thinking about what kind of game would be fun.

However, a phone call from Suzuka interrupted his thoughts.

The call was connected, and then I heard your girl on the other end directly greeted: "Get ready, the meeting with Fujiki will be this morning."

Well, it seems I don’t need to go to school today.

"Okay." The sponsor's order had to be obeyed, and Li Nian could only respond with "yes" or "I got your order" besides "okay".

"I'll come find you later. I'll be there in twenty minutes. You live in Sakurasou, right?"

"Well, you're coming, right? By the way, have you had breakfast?"

"Ah? Not yet."

"Oh, I'll bring you some then."

"What? No, I don't have that appetite. I don't usually eat much."

"What kind of suicidal lifestyle are you living with...Okay, just eat what you brought, eat as much as you can."

After a while, the person on the other end of the phone responded reluctantly: "...Oh." and then hung up.

Li Nian prepared breakfast, but planned to take it with him on the way. He also put the lunch he was making into the lunch box. He went back to his room to change his clothes and came to the dining table. Qingshan was already sitting there eating on time. Li Nian greeted him.

Qingshan raised his head when he heard the greeting and wanted to say hello as well.

Seeing a well-built man in a suit and sunglasses, a greeting immediately stuck on the tip of my tongue.

"... Let me ask you, what kind of equipment do you have?"

"If you want to calm people down, you have to be a bit stylish." Li Nian put a lunch box in front of Qingshan: "I can't eat this for lunch and it's already been made, so help me finish it."

"...You want to fatten me up again." Qingshan complained. He knew it was probably something related to the exorcist. After hesitating for a while, he asked another question: "It's not something dangerous, right?"

"Just stand back and give them some face."

In the end, the man in a suit and tie, who looked like a man in black, went out carrying two lunch boxes.

Suzuka came by taxi. After giving away almost all of his savings and only having a few million left, this kid still couldn't learn to save money. He went straight to the entrance of Sakurasou, rolled down the window, and was stunned when he saw Li Nian, who came out on time.

"…What's your condition?"

"Put on the proper attire of a bodyguard to support you, the boss? Do you feel that way?"

"You are quite dedicated... It is definitely better than you running over there in your school uniform. Okay, get in the car."

Chapter 443: Seeing the Great Dao of Dalian Temple

Li Nian handed the lunch box to Suzuka in the car. She showed a look of disgust and said, "I have no appetite now," and tried to refuse it.

Li Nian said, "We might have to fight later. Do you have the strength without something in your stomach?"

Suzuka was stunned and rolled her eyes at him: "Let me be clear in advance, I just came over to get the information, I don't want to fight, can you, a battle maniac, restrain yourself a little."

"It depends on the situation, so what I'm saying is there might be a fight, and we need to prepare for the worst."

"Ahhh, it's so annoying. Okay, I'll eat. Is eating okay?"
