Chapter 23: One Relationship Ends, Another Begins

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Really? I thought your parents had a tragic love story, like how the rich Miss Dai fell in love with a poor kid. Then, because their love wasn’t acknowledged by the family, the two of them eloped to a foreign country.”

Qin Sixia casually came up with the plot of a fictional story.

Wang Dong was a little speechless. Should he say that the other party was indeed worthy of being a novelist? After all, novelists had to be creative.

“How many words do you write every day? Do you get tired? If your inspiration dries up, will you still force yourself to write it? Or rather, what method will you use to obtain inspiration? Will geniuses have times when their inspiration dries up? I often get stuck after writing a few paragraphs.”

Seeing that he didn’t answer, Qin Sixia nagged, “By the way, are you from the literature department? How come I’ve never seen you before? Could it be that you’re younger than me? No way? How long has it been since you conceptualized this book? A few years? Or a few months? I think you’re very impressive. Do you have any specific method you use to increase the quality of your novel?”

Perhaps because the literary world was a lonely one, after seeing someone like her, Qin Sixia couldn’t help but say a few more words.

After a while, she fell silent.

She looked at Wang Dong’s side profile seriously. For some reason, it looked better the more she looked at it.

This was a feeling she had never felt before.

In an instant, an idea flashed in his mind.

She started to consider putting Wang Dong into her novel. She even started wondering what kind of background she should fabricate.

She thought about turning him into an illegitimate son who wasn’t valued by his family. Because of his circumstances, he wanted to use his writing to create a world that belonged to him!

She felt that the plot she came up with didn’t seem too bad.

Wang Dong suddenly closed his laptop. His novel was very long, so it was impossible for him to finish it all in one go.

It was already not bad that he could upload daily.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Qin Sixia also stood up and asked, “Can I come over tomorrow?”

Wang Dong did not answer her.

She looked at Wang Dong’s departing figure and fell into deep thought.

Was she being ignored?

In the past, no matter where she went, those people would always curry favor with her. At that time, she only felt that it was very annoying and wouldn’t bother with them. Now, had the roles been switched?

Was this considered karma?

She seemed to have thought of something. She opened the window and shouted downstairs, “If you don’t reply to me, I’ll take it as a yes!”

Wang Dong only glanced at her before leaving.

Qin Sixia smiled. If the other party really hated her, he would definitely refuse. However, even after hearing what she said, Wang Dong did not reply to her. Wasn’t that basically a tacit agreement?

The next day.

Wang Dong arrived at the familiar spot again, and Qin Sixia had long run over.

“Good evening.”

He ignored her and turned on his laptop to start writing. Seeing his serious expression, Qin Sixia also perked up and prepared to learn something.

The two of them worked hard and silently learned.

Throughout the entire battle, Qin Sixia also benefited greatly.

For some reason, Qin Sixia started to slowly close her eyes. When Wang Dong turned around again, she had already fallen asleep.

He closed the laptop and looked at his watch. It was almost time for the appointment.

After covering Qin Sixia with a coat, he took advantage of the moonlight to arrive at the entrance of the supermarket.

He patted the man in sunglasses and said, “Are you the Mr. Wang who contacted me via Airbnb previously?”

The man raised his head and sized him up before saying, “Yes. You want to rent my Tokyo-style house?”

“Yes, if there’s no problem, this money is yours. The extra money is the cost of temporarily adding the bookshelf.”

Wang Dong took out a few notes, and the man surnamed Wang nodded. “Alright, I’ll lend you the house for the time being. In addition, I’ve already prepared all the bookshelves you want. As for the books, you will have to arrange it yourself.”

“Alright.”

Wang Dong settled everything and rented a room. He placed all the manuscript evidence he had printed in the room.

Moreover, it made the room look extremely artistic.

The wooden bookcase and the books on the shelf were all works that Qin Sixia liked.

Wang Dong wanted her to feel that…

Their encounter was destined, and their relationship was a match made in heaven.

…

When Qin Sixia woke up again, she saw the exhausted Wang Dong just opening the door. “Did you…”

“Nothing, I just went to the washroom.”

She didn’t think too much about it. She just thought that Wang Dong had been writing novels all night, which was why he was so tired.

In the next few days, Wang Dong basically went to Building 8 to update his novel every day. Qin Sixia was the same.

After interacting with him for the past few days, she realized that the author of Twilight was actually her junior. Most importantly, he wasn’t from the literature department.

After asking around, she learned that Wang Dong was a genius in the finance department. She had also heard about this matter before. After all, because her mathematics was too bad, Lu Weiming had already talked to her a few times.

At the same time, she also learned that Wang Dong had scored full marks for the pre-test and had become a specially hired researcher at the research center at the start of school.

At that time, she only thought of the other party as a genius.

She thought that the two of them would never cross paths in their lives, but she didn’t expect to end up getting to know him because of Twilight.

She probably wouldn’t have dreamed that a mathematics genius was also outstanding in literature!

It even made her feel inferior.

This was only his first year. This meant that after three years, Wang Dong would only become better.

She seemed to have witnessed the rise of a literary genius!

At the thought of this, she felt excited again.

[Host, there are still three and a half hours left. If you can’t successfully seduce Qin Sixia, you’ll be killed.]

The system’s voice was like a death warrant.

Wang Dong suppressed the frustration in his heart and said, “I’m leaving.”

“What do you mean?”

Qin Sixia had yet to react.

“I won’t come here to write novels anymore.”

These words made her heart fall to the bottom. She asked in disappointment and frustration, “Why?”

She was already used to looking at Wang Dong silently. For some reason, she felt like her heart was now incomplete. She didn’t want to give up meeting him and wanted to continue seeing each other like this.

“Can’t you just stay?”

Before Wang Dong could answer, she continued, “Is our relationship over just like that?”

She was sad.

Wang Dong was also sad.

The former was sad because of her buried love.

The latter was sad because of money.

How could he be willing to die before he made a lot of money?

Although he felt bad for this female author, he still wanted to live!

“What relationship?”

He wanted Qin Sixia to admit her feelings for him. He believed that if nothing went wrong, he would definitely succeed this time!

Qin Si thought for a moment and said, “…The relationship between an author and his reader.”

“It’s over, but it can still continue if you want it to. However, I hope that we continue with a different relationship.”

The smile on Wang Dong’s face was so dazzling in the darkness..
