It's the last season of the year again. The world becomes quiet and slow. On the gray-brown branches outside, the last leaf swirls in the air with the cold wind and falls to the ground. The sky suddenly seems very high.
The semester is nearing its end, and it's currently peak time for courses to conclude, which means that final papers need to be submitted and will be counted towards the final grade.
A thesis can easily be two or three thousand words long and has high requirements for formatting, making it a major headache for every college student.
There aren't many classes left until the end of the semester, maybe two or three classes a week at most, but they don't feel relaxed.
Final exam review alone is a huge undertaking, and the postgraduate entrance exam and the CET-4 and CET-6 exams are just two weeks away. As a result, the library and study rooms in various teaching buildings are once again experiencing peak periods for reserving seats.
Once again, Su Xun couldn't find a place to study, and spent several days holed up in his dormitory, reading various documents mentioned by his teachers.
After reading through her class notes on modern and contemporary literary history, she felt drowsy. The names of literary giants from the past hundred years were swirling in her mind, almost making her dizzy.
She got up, rubbed her stiff shoulders, and went to get a cup of hot water to make coffee.
The rich aroma of coffee lingered around my nose, bringing me back to a state of alertness.
She took a small sip and glanced at another person in the dormitory.
Even within the same dormitory, they would automatically form their own small groups. Zhou Qin and Liu Wei liked to go out to study together, while she and Wen Yanyan preferred to stay in the dormitory and laze around.
So the result is that she is closer to Wen Yanyan, while Zhou Qin and Liu Wei are closer.
Wen Yanyan was lying on the table, her shoulders trembling occasionally, accompanied by faint sobs. Su Xun was puzzled and quietly walked over.
Although their Chinese literature textbooks contain some romantic stories, they definitely don't have any content that can move people to tears.
Su Xun walked to Wen Yanyan's desk and softly called out, "Yanyan."
Wen Yanyan had earphones in her ears, but she still sensed someone approaching and slowly turned her head.
The first thing Su Xun saw was a smiling face streaked with tears, a few tears clinging to her eyelashes, and two crumpled tissues in her hand, which caused Su Xun to freeze on the spot.
"Were you moved to tears by Lu Xun and Guo Moruo?"
Sister, there's really no need for that.
Wen Yanyan, her eyes still wet with tears, looked at Su Xun, choked out a couple of sobs, and then leaned back a little.
Su Xun then noticed the phone lying horizontally on the table, playing a TV series. The textbooks that should have been held in someone's hands were now carelessly spread out on the table, mixed with the unfinished takeout from lunch.
Su Xun: "..."
"Senior Brother's scenes were so heartbreaking. Such a gentle senior brother actually died," Wen Yanyan muttered to herself.
Why does this plot sound so familiar?
Su Xun narrowed his eyes, and when he saw the scene in the video clearly, he almost jumped up in fright.
Isn't this drama based on the fantasy novel she adapted into a TV series last time? Judging by the timeline, it seems to have premiered around this time, but as a web series.
She's been so busy lately, having just finished the debate competition finals and immediately throwing herself into final exam preparation, that she almost forgot her novel's TV adaptation was going to be released.
To be honest, seeing the people around her following her work gives me a strange feeling. Aside from a few family members, almost no one knows she writes novels, partly because it's unnecessary, and partly because she's embarrassed to let those around her read her writing.
She wrote one or two tragic novels, in which the male and female protagonists suffer from beginning to end, and most of the supporting characters also meet tragic ends. This fantasy novel is one such example.
Moreover, since it's a novel, there will inevitably be some inappropriate content. She didn't want her friends to know that she not only enjoyed tormenting the male and female protagonists, but also made suggestive remarks in places no one knew about.
"Well, actually, my senior brother's death is a relief," Su Xun said, emerging from his overwhelming awkwardness.
"Why? Su Xun, you're so heartless. Such a good senior brother."
"This senior brother has a tragic past. He lost his family when he was young. He finally went to Qiyun Immortal Mansion and became the sect leader's chief disciple, only to find that his master was actually the biggest hypocrite in the cultivation world. In public, he appeared to be a virtuous and noble immortal, but when they were alone, he would beat and scold him at will and secretly trip him up. He could not expose the sect leader's hypocrisy, and if he revealed this matter, he would be punished even more severely."
"He finally met the female lead and felt the first ray of warmth, but he could only watch helplessly as she and the male lead became a couple. His experience destined him to be weak in character, which he could not change. He hated his own weakness on one hand, and succumbed to the darkness of reality on the other."
"How do you know your senior brother so well? Have you read the original novel?" Wen Yanyan became suspicious after hearing Su Xun's analysis of her senior brother's inner thoughts.
Su Xun guiltily touched the hem of his clothes, "I guess you could say I've seen it."
The senior brother she created in her story is gentle and refined, always treating everyone with kindness and politeness. However, he has actually closed himself off. Reality has driven him to despair, but he pretends to be as gentle as a spring breeze. His ending is also tragic, but surprisingly, he is very popular with readers. When the story was being serialized, many readers clamored to send her razor blades.
"Are you also a fan of Mu Youzhi's books?" Wen Yanyan suddenly perked up and stopped sobbing.
"I... am not."
Nonsense, I'm not a fan of mine, of course I don't have any branches.
“I thought I’d find someone who likes Mu Youzhi’s books again.” She then added, “I’ve been following her books since high school.”
"Meet again?"
"Oh right, didn't I tell you last time that the minister and I share a common interest? This is it, we are both fans of Shan You Mu Mu."
"Xiang Yang, are you reading romance novels?" Su Xun managed to utter these words with difficulty.
"I didn't expect it at first. Once, when we were setting up a booth for an event, he was watching from the side and I noticed him. After that, we often discussed Mu Youzhi's books together. Recently, the author is updating a sweet novel. I didn't expect him to change his style. But it's still very good."
"Haha, really?" Actually, this book was created right here in your dorm room.
"Then you can do as you please, I'm going to study now."
After sitting back down, she slowly came to her senses. There were actually two of her book fans next to her, which was simply unbelievable.
However, seeing the extent of Wen Yanyan's enthusiasm, she decided to quietly keep her identity hidden.
If Xiang Yang, that talkative guy, found out, her life might not be peaceful anymore.
