"You are disturbing the rest of our class's leading actor."

Not willing to be outdone, Yi Se looked back with a smile.

"How could that be? I just came here to comfort Senior Hayato. Do you think I'm causing you trouble?"

"Of course not..."

Ye Shan could only smile bitterly and speak out to smooth things over.

"By the way, the play this morning is over. Do you have time afterwards, senior? Are you interested in going to the school festival with Iroha?" Isshiki made a further invitation as if nothing had happened.

"Wha-Hayato doesn't have time to go with you."

"Hmm? What does this have to do with you, Miura-senpai?"

"Of course it has something to do with me... Because you're going to be with me today, right? Don't you think so, Hayato?"

Cold sweat gradually broke out on Ye Shan's head, and he rarely showed an embarrassed expression.

The expression on this person's face made Li Nian feel very interesting. He looked at this scene with great interest. He guessed that if Isshiki and Miura bumped into each other in front of Ye Shan, it would turn out like this. He couldn't help laughing at this moment.

Kato asked in confusion, "What are you laughing at, Li Nian?"

"I'm watching a play. Compared to a gay drama performed by a group of amateur actors, the real drama of the relationship between men and women in real life is more exciting." Li Nian pointed over there, showing a gloating expression: "See that Jin surrounded by beautiful girls over there, is he pretending to be a man? Humph, you are always so affectionate, you deserve to be embarrassed now. Ye Shan, Ye Shan, it seems that no matter how kind a guy is, he doesn't know how to deal with the Shura Field. What do you think, Kato? This scene is very interesting, right?"

Kato couldn't understand Li Nian's sense of humor and didn't think it was funny.

An Yi couldn't help but shudder, and turned around secretly to look. Sure enough, she found that Gogen and Kasumigaoka were looking at Li Nian with a sneer, and immediately reminded Li Nian: "An Nian, you'd better not talk about the Shura Field here."

"Huh? Why?"

Before Amai could say anything, Kasumigaoka spoke first, saying calmly, "It's amazing that you can act like it has nothing to do with you."

An Yi suddenly became silent.

Li Nian was puzzled: "Why should I care about other people's Shura Field?" After saying this, he felt that something was wrong and corrected his wording: "Okay, I have to admit that it seems that I tricked one of them into coming here."

Wu Geng was not very happy and said with a cold face: "I wonder if you can still laugh if the same situation happens to you."

Li Nian laughed out loud now: "I'm not as popular with women as Ye Shan."

An Yi took a deep breath and resisted the urge to complain.

Wu Geng sneered, "You are as stupid as ever. If I didn't know you were really stupid, I would have thought you were just pretending to be stupid."

"Hoho, are you mocking my IQ?" Li Nian felt that as an ultimate life form, his IQ was among the highest.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm mocking your emotional intelligence."

"I seem to hear some ridiculous thing said by a man who had no friends a year ago."

"Yes, yes. I know you have a lot of friends, but that doesn't seem to prevent you from showing very low emotional intelligence in some aspects. This is the fundamental reason why you are still a single dog now."

"Stop hurting each other, okay?"

"I'm different from you. At least I know myself..."

"…Myself what?"

"nothing."

Everyone likes to leave things half-said, and Li Nian has gotten used to it.

Kasumigaoka also began to observe the situation on Ye Shan's side and said with a smile: "People always think other people's affairs are very clear, but when it comes to themselves, they don't understand. Maybe this is what they call the confusion of the person involved?"

“Objectivity is always clearer than subjectivity.”

"If you think about it carefully, Shura Field is also a topic worth studying. After all, in this era, every book should write about the relationship between multiple men and women. What do you think about this, Mr. Muzi? I'm very curious."

An Yi had been listening quietly with her mouth closed. When she heard Kasumigaoka casually bring up this topic, she held her breath. As a bystander, she saw everything clearly. She wanted to speak loudly and remind Li Nian of the word "danger".

Li Nian was still in the mood for casual conversation. She usually discussed all kinds of strange topics with Kasumigaoka. At this moment, she felt that what Kasumigaoka said made a lot of sense. The Shura Field was a plot worthy of study. There happened to be a ready-made example in front of her, so she could talk about it.

"You're asking the right person. That's a necessary plot. Of course, I've carefully thought about some of the ways to write classic plots like the Shura Field. Let's not talk about the old-fashioned, slow-witted male protagonist who quietly watches the female No. 1, 2, and 3 being jealous of each other in front of him, and the plot where they secretly fight each other openly and secretly."

"...You want to ignore this old-fashioned plot, but I would like to ask you in detail about your opinion on it."

"Ah? This old-fashioned way of handling things is nothing new, but in a sense it is also the safest way to handle it. After all, if the relationship is made clear, things will get ugly."

"""..."""

The air around them suddenly seemed to become very quiet. Li Nian glanced at the odd-looking Kasumigaoka and interpreted that as a response for him to continue. So he continued to talk: "It's just that after reading too much, readers will find it clichéd and will also feel that it is forcibly lowering the male protagonist's IQ. Depending on the situation, sometimes it will feel pretentious and stiff, so it's better to give a set of tenable logic."

"...for example?"

"Not being able to detect other people's feelings for you - it's not necessarily because of a far-fetched reason like being slow-witted. It can be understood if it's a cognitive error. If you don't think about it at all, you naturally won't get the right answer. There are many reasons for this cognitive error. It could be that you've been single for too long and don't consider the possibility of being liked by others. It could be that different experiences lead to different views on things. To be more naive, it could also be caused by the age gap, such as "I only treat you as children, and I didn't think you wanted to sleep with me."

"...I see, I see. I understand. I've wondered if these are the reasons before. So they really are, haha, haha."

"……what?"

"Nothing, I just think these examples sound like the reason why you are still single."

"...Don't talk nonsense, I also heard it from a friend." Li Nian defended himself with a guilty conscience.

"Is the friend you are talking about a man who is 1.8 meters tall and looks big and strong with bulging muscles? Yes, he looks very similar to you." Wu Geng asked Li Nian with a wry smile.

Li Nian knew that he couldn't hide it from these two people. Well, in fact, what he just said was indeed what he felt, and it was his self-reflection because of Nayuta's confession. Before this, he had never thought that there was a possibility that JK would confess to him. After Nayuta's confession, he also felt that it was an illusion caused by the suspension bridge effect, and it was still a misunderstanding in nature.

Until Nayuta forced him to face up to that emotion, Li Nian also realized after reflection that there were some problems with his previous thinking, and he also realized that those problems still existed in himself——

"It doesn't matter whose experience it is. If you want to write this kind of Shura field plot, there should be similar reasons... But of course, in addition to the conventional setting of the male protagonist as a slow person, there are also male protagonists who are not slow. They can detect the girls' feelings and then feel conflicted when they watch the girls surrounding them and express their admiration for them openly or secretly." Li Nian pointed in the direction of Ye Shan: "For example, the one over there."

When everyone looked over, it seemed that Ye Shan had dealt with Miura and Isshiki by now. No one knew what words he used, but the two of them left with satisfied expressions. When everyone looked over, Ye Shan himself seemed very tired and heaved a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, he noticed that Li Nian was looking at him. When their eyes occasionally met, Ye Shan immediately restrained his instinctive laxity. He didn't know that he was being used as an example at this moment, and just responded with a gentle smile.

Li Nian smiled and nodded as a greeting, and said to everyone, "Perhaps that is the most normal reaction that is closest to reality... Although I cannot understand the extravagant worries that only popular celebrities would have."

"Hayama-san... do you know how Yumiko feels?" Kato was a little confused, which showed that Hayama concealed it very well, as if he was just treating a few girls he thought were friends with the same attitude as always.

Li Nian didn't answer, knowing that Ye Shan had something he wanted to hide.

Kasumigaoka also noticed that the blond, warm-hearted Hayama-san was handling the two girls around him with a cautious attitude, and said with emotion: "Is that the so-called master who can walk through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf on him? This is the first time I've seen him in real life. Is he the legendary type who can maintain a delicate balance while standing on several boats?"

"Don't look at Ye Shan like that... He's the type who doesn't want to step on any boat. He seems to be living a very tiring life."

Chapter 497 I want them all (clenched fist)!

It is an incredible phenomenon that a handsome guy who has no shortage of admirers is still single.

A man like Ye Shan is bound to have people who confess to him. In fact, Li Nian has heard many rumors about this guy being called to the back garden to confess his love. Since he is still single, it can only be the result of rejecting everyone.

I've never heard of him expressing his interest in anyone, including the blonde with two diamonds who is closest to him. Even a fool can see Miura Yumiko's feelings for this guy, but he himself seems to be blind to it. It's definitely not the so-called dullness of being the one involved, but it's just that Yeshan is deliberately turning a blind eye.

But he does care about his friends around him. In order to protect these people, he took the initiative to find Li Nian, hoping that he could restrain some extreme behavior.

He was a kind-hearted man with a broad mind, Li Nian thought so. From previous conversations, she learned that Ye Shan seemed to have experienced something bad in his previous school, so he developed an obsession to protect everyone in the class. While she felt that this was not normal, she also respected Ye Shan's idea.

Perhaps it is because of this that this person cannot accept the confession of an individual, and wants to be someone's exclusive property, and must be everyone's idol?

That’s other people’s private matter...but Li Nian is indeed very curious.

But no matter how you guess, it’s unreliable. Only Ye Shan himself knows what the actual situation is.

There is only one thing that Li Nian can be sure of, that is, the girls who are surrounding him, throwing flirtatious glances at him, and thinking that they can gradually increase this guy's favorability, will definitely fail when they really confess their feelings.

Generally speaking, a failed confession is a very embarrassing thing... Nayuta's case is undoubtedly an exception among exceptions. For a normal girl, it would be a big hurt and would have an irreversible impact on interpersonal relationships.

Ye Shan seemed to want to avoid these influences, so he was very cautious in dealing with them based on his awareness of the feelings of the girls around him.

This is also the reason why Ye Shan inadvertently revealed a very tired expression just now.

"...You don't want to be that kind of person, do you?" Kasumigaoka asked tentatively, her voice a little nervous: "Even if you know that there are many girls who like you, you have to pretend not to see it, just to avoid hurting anyone, and play dumb, and be the kind of guy who walks through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf on him?"

Wu Geng also looked at Li Nian with an inexplicably serious expression.

When talking about conceptual things, they always have to talk about real people. Li Nian is accustomed to this habit of Kasumigaoka. At this time, Li Nian still shook his head without hesitation.

"I won't do it. Life is tiring enough, why would I want to make myself suffer like that? It would be interesting to watch someone who really has multiple relationships, but what's the point of not loving anyone? No reader would like to read about this in a book. It's a negative example."

Kasumigaoka and Gogen both breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Kasumigaoka narrowed his eyes again: "So you... I mean, regarding the handling of the Shura Field, you don't seem to be inclined to make the male protagonist dull and enjoy it calmly, nor do you think it's better to be entangled in the idea of ​​clearly perceiving the girl's feelings? So how do you think the Shura Field should be handled?"

"Of course, facing your emotions directly and decisively is what a real man does." Li Nian was waiting for her to ask this, and spoke decisively, stating his favorite way of dealing with emotions.

Kasumigaoka laughed.

"…That sounds like something you would say."

This is also what everyone is thinking at this time.

"Playing dumb is disrespectful to others, being entangled is disrespectful to yourself. Love and hate are clear, and you are good to everyone." Li Nian laughed and said, "But with a male protagonist like that, there may not be any Shura Field plots to write for fun."

"…So, in the final analysis, you will…let the hero make a clean choice among the multiple heroines."

Kasumigaoka said softly, and everyone felt that this was the answer.

But Li Nian just clicked his lips and waved his fingers.

"Choosing? That's something only children do. Adults, of course, want everything!"

Kasumigaoka was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes: "...You want all of them?"

Wu Geng didn't expect Li Nian to say that. After widening his eyes, he laughed as if he had heard a joke.

An Yi couldn't help but tremble all over. He had been quiet until now, but finally he overcame his fear and spoke out to alert his good friend.

"Ah, Ah Nian, I suggest you think before you speak. Some things should not be said carelessly."

He winked at Li Nian hard, hoping that he could understand his hint.

Li Nian just felt that something seemed to have gotten into An Yi's eyes. She didn't understand what it meant and asked in confusion.

"What do you mean by nonsense? I am speaking from the bottom of my heart, okay?"

"..."

"I don't know what's wrong with the authors recently. Whether it's novels or comics, the heroines are well-shaped, but they have to play the game of party struggle. The Shura Field plot is quite interesting, which is understandable in itself, but in the end, they either come up with some boring open ending or multiple routes with only one ending, as if they think readers really like this. That's stupid. Obviously, there is only one ending that everyone wants to see, and that is to have it all! Not these fancy things. Right, my friend An Yi, you think so too, right?"

Li Nian followed the topic and expressed his true feelings. He felt that An Yi and he must have the same opinion, so he passed the topic on.

An Yi's forehead was covered with cold sweat. It was true that he had the same feeling as An Nian, but he didn't dare to take over the conversation or nod at this time, because he already felt a chill all over his body.

"That's true...but Ah Nian, you just said that we should face our emotions and that we should have everything. It doesn't seem to count."

"Who says it doesn't count? The most real emotion is to like everything. It's human nature to want everything you like. There's no point in making choices."

Kasumigaoka smiled, but the smile was completely gone from her eyes: "Haha... is that so... you want them all... the Crystal Palace is what you want, right?"

"of course."

When An Yi heard his friend actually nodded in agreement, he felt dizzy and thought that this guy was hopeless.

Wu Geng's eyes were dim: "I was blind. Although I called you a scumbag, I didn't realize that you really are a scumbag."

"Everyone calls him a scumbag, and everyone wants to be a scumbag."

"So you really want to?"

"I dream about it."

Wu Geng suddenly smiled brightly: "You can only think about it in your dreams."

"No, I can still write about it in my novel."

Kato spoke up: "So, we are just discussing writing now?"

Li Nian asked curiously: "Otherwise?"

"Yes, yes, this story is purely fictional, please do not associate it with real people in reality." An Yi seized the opportunity to emphasize and remind certain people not to associate it with real people in reality.

Kasumigaoka's face looked a little better, and he said to himself, "Yes, but it's possible in stories, not in reality."

“Well, in reality, there are many countries that still support polygamy. It was a major trend hundreds of years ago. In fact, in this era, there is no shortage of scumbags who have multiple relationships everywhere…” Li Nian laughed and continued to act.

"Please shut up now, An Nian." An Yi stiffly began to change the subject: "By the way, speaking of novels, An Nian, you must want to know how popular your book has been in the past few days."

Seeing that Amai changed the subject, Kasumigaoka and Gogen looked at each other and didn't ask any more questions.

Li Nian was not interested: "I don't want to know."

"Now you have to think about it. As far as I know, the shelves of major bookstores have been cleared out, and Amazon Online Shopping has not been able to ship the goods. And this is because your Phoenix Library seems to have anticipated that the sales will be hot, and has prepared a quantity far exceeding the average number of new books when it was first printed. Now their official Twitter account has announced the reprint."

"Oh."
