"Don't understand what love is, so you can't write normal romantic scenes?"
Another old lover giving grief in a roundabout way!
Do I understand what love is or not? Don't you know?
Li Peifeng thought for a few seconds and slowly said, "What to do when sothing can't be sold?"
"Link it to love!"
After a pause, Li Peifeng smiled and said, "That was just a joke earlier. Actually, this issue is quite complex. The romance scenes you ntioned aren't hard to write. With the popular aesthetic of online literature, perhaps even an author who's never been in a relationship can write such scenes well, relying only on a beautiful fantasy of love."
"But there are too many books like this in the female genre, all written by won, who write with great drama and emotion. They have more empathy for won, and their writing is more delicate. As a man, I believe if I wrote this type, I wouldn't be able to compete with them. Therefore, I've downplayed the romantic lines in my books, focusing more on the story itself. Making the story more interesting is the most important."
He Ying nodded, "Then the second question, I asked you on WeChat but you didn't answer. I want to ask again... the goji berries I bought for you, have you finished them? Has your health improved?"
After speaking, she decisively handed back the microphone.
This question seed irrelevant and considerate on the surface, but it actually concealed malicious intent!
The audience reacted for a mont, then burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha~~"
"Buying goji berries?"
"Is she implying the campus heartthrob is impotent?"
"All show and no substance?"
"It must be true; this is negative feedback from a firsthand experience!!"
"I can't... I'm laughing my head off!"
For the first ti, Li Peifeng realized how loud and lasting the laughter of over three hundred people could be.
"What's up with Fengfeng? He seems to have upset a lot of girls!"
"Let's have a good talk with him after the lecture."
Yu Huizhi and Li Qiyuan sat in the audience with displeased expressions, expressing dual concerns about their son's physical and ntal health. Inevitably, Li Peifeng's true nature gradually revealed itself to his parents…
"That's not right." Xu Manning whispered, nudging Wu Wenyue, "Is he impotent?"
Wu Wenyue lowered her voice, irritably cursing, "Impotent my ass! Don't you know if he is? This woman clearly has a mindset of destroying what she can't have."
"Bitch!" Xu Manning felt troubled seeing Li Peifeng being subtly defad, and turned to morize He Ying's face…
"He's really a player."
Huang Tianxuan crossed her arms and chuckled silently.
"You've flirted too much in the past, now you're causing trouble! If you ruin the lecture, I won't forgive you!"
Professors in the front row exchanged banter about Li's past gossip, Zhao Qingge listened impatiently, glaring at Li Peifeng, then stood up to calm the room and cover for him.
But then a voice ca from the stage…
"The goji berries you bought, I finished them last year."
Li Peifeng spoke calmly, with a gentle smile on his face, "I don't drink them anymore now, my health has improved a lot. Thank you for your concern."
Since the lecture began, Li Peifeng had been using his resonant voice, and though it was weak at first, this ti, he intensified it!
The sound traveled through the microphone, transmitted to the speakers, vibrating the air in the classroom, and gently brushing past everyone's ears as if a breeze passed through the room.
"The clouds parted after a farewell, and ten years have passed like flowing water."
Li Peifeng glanced at the audience, scanning the faces of familiar won, each reacting differently; so avoided his gaze, so remained expressionless, while others responded with smiles, resentnt, or nostalgia…
"I see many familiar friends in the audience, many of whom I haven't seen in a long ti, they all seem a bit unfamiliar now."
"Upon closer thought, oh, this girl, I t her in my sophomore year, and that girl, in my freshman year. Then I realize, freshman year? That was five or six years ago, wasn't it? Ti really flies."
Li Peifeng sighed deeply, but then smiled again, "I recently re-read 'One Hundred Years of Solitude,' Mr. Huang's translation, it gave a lot of insights."
"No matter where you go, rember, the past is false, mories are an endless road, all past springs are gone, even the deepest, wildest love ultimately is just a fleeting reality, only loneliness is eternal."
"..."
Because of his frequent use of a resonant voice, Li Peifeng was starting to master it, and when paired with passages from the literary masterpiece, it touched the hearts of the listeners, filling the room with a deep sense of sorrow, leaving the audience silent.
Quake beneath my voice, ignorant mortals!
Repent beneath my voice, you won who seek to destroy what you can't have!
Forget beneath my voice, forget about my impotence, forget about goji berries!!
Damn it, I have iron kidneys now, I'd slay gods and demons alike from the South Celestial Gate to East Penglai Road without even blinking... but can I tell everyone that? The more you argue, the worse it gets, right?
"Because of this passage, I wrote an essay."
To offset the negative impact of He Ying's question, Li Peifeng decided to go all out, continuing to hypnotize and brainwash.
He clicked with the mouse to open a docunt nad 'Wild Thoughts' on his laptop, scrolling to the bottom where a few lines were projected onto the screen.
Li Peifeng read softly, the won in the audience showing varied expressions…
"Seasons have cycles, tides have timing."
"Growth is like rushing into the sea, youth is but external dust."
"Actually, once winter is over, everything will be fine."
"There's no need for the snow to be eternally white."
"The bright moon is always there, but this place is no longer suitable for you."
After reading, Li Peifeng felt a bit emotional, recalling the many beauties he once knew, then looking at Old Zhao and the other two girls below, emotions surged, warm feelings he couldn't fully express.
I've seen many won, slept in various beds at hotels near Beihua University, but I've never feared life's changes and turmoil!
He couldn't help but glance out the window. There were six large windows in total, none showing the moon, only the deep blue sky remained.
Oh, is it ti?
Li Peifeng was delighted, laughing, "The moon's gone too, let's end class."
"No way!"
"Continue!"
"We haven't asked anything yet!!"
The people, initially absorbed in so inexplicable emotion, were roused into excitent by his words.
"Dean Chen, what do you think..."
Zhao Qingge asked a bespectacled, dark-jacketed middle-aged man beside her.
"Let Xiaofeng continue speaking; it's the people's voice."
Dean Chen nodded with a smile, then softly spoke to a teacher next to him, "I'm glad we ca; it's been a while since we've seen such an interesting lecture. Yes, young people do have spirit!"
So people just love to make a spectacle!
