201 You’re So … (2/2)

Su Yan blinked. ”Isn't that just the setting?”

”I don't know. You're the author. But as a reader, I would have thought they are. I mean look at your first story: There are deity sects and demonic sects and the main characters are cultivators that get drawn into the fight. Sure, there isn't any actual cultivation going on but, well, you only had five thousand words. I'm sure if you had had the possibility to write more, then you would have let them cultivate, right?”

”Uh … probably.” Su Yan looked in the other direction. Was he really this transparent?

Nie Chang chuckled. ”Well, you've written xianxia before. It's nothing strange. But now think of what you've said after we visited your parents. Didn't you take that photo of Yuan Hai in case the system wants you to write something different next? That would count as a variation of the genre, wouldn't it?”

Su Yan blinked. His boyfriend really made too much sense! He turned back around and examined his handsome profile.

Nie Chang tried to concentrate on the street but with Su Yan staring at him like this he really had trouble to stay focused. ”Alright, darling, what's with my face?” This wasn't even the first time he was staring at him!

Su Yan leaned against the dashboard and continued to look at him. ”I just noticed that you're really …”

Nie Chang waited but still didn't get to hear the end of the sentence after half a minute. ”Handsome?” he prompted.

”No.”

”No?” Nie Chang's brows raised.

”Well, you are but … I thought you're really smart.”

”Oh? And you only noticed that now? Didn't we go to school together?”

Su Yan blinked. ”Yeah but that doesn't mean anything. That's … that's a different kind of smart.”

Nie Chang's lips curved up. ”Then what kind of smart did you discover just now?”

”The kind where you're able to figure out everything from just hearing a few words about it or taking a glance at it. Let's be honest, I should know a lot more about this than you but you're still able to understand it faster than me. That's unfair, isn't it?”

”Mn.” Nie Chang smiled and pulled the car to the side. They had reached Su Yan's apartment so he could finally pay him his whole attention. ”Look at it this way, darling: Since I'm your boyfriend whether it's my handsomeness or all the kinds of smarts I have it's all yours too.” He leaned over and kissed him.

Su Yan smiled happily. ”Then you have to help me figure out everything else in the future too!”

”Naturally. And now let's go in. Or do you want to spend the night in the car?”

Su Yan slapped his chest in response. ”Stop teasing me and get your things!”

”Mn.” Nie Chang took his bag and followed him inside with a happy smile.
