1487: What If She Did Not Buy It?

What If She Did Not Buy It?

Wen Shan sat in the living room, reading the script. The first part of the plot talked about a Mathematician who wanted to prove an algorithm. He went to a mysterious country to look for an old man who was proficient in ancient Latin in order to decipher a rare ancient text.0

The calculation, if applied to modern technology, could very well change humankind forever. Hence, the male protagonist swore that he had to figure out the algorithm, which had been passed down over thousands of years. 

However, while the male protagonist was en route to the mysterious country, the airplane got into an accident and was sucked into a black hole. All the other people in the plane had entered a coma, but the male protagonist was conscious and managed to climb out of the airplane. 

The male protagonist was desperate to find a way out and obsessively started to use everything he could find to calculate a way to escape. He carried out many experiments. 

There were countless obstacles in the black hole which reminded Wen Shan of the mysterious country in the American movie King Kong. The people there could not speak and had their own beliefs and symbols, but their country also contained the most precious thing on Earth. 

The first chapter already had tens of pages describing how the male protagonist kept trying to find an escape route. During his journey, he kept bumping into strange creatures and had to survive many attacks.

Wen Shan never thought that a Mathematician could write so well. Her mood lifted and she wanted to read on but there was no more left to read.

"Oh?" Wen Shan looked around but there were no other books. She looked at the person cooking in the kitchen and called out, "Why is there only one book?"

Nalan Chunbo raised his eyebrows and put the vegetables into the pot. "Let's deal with this book first."

"But did he manage to get out? Did he meet the heroine in the black hole or did he only meet her after he escaped?" Wen Shan could not resist asking as she got up and hurried to the kitchen doorway. Although spoilers could be annoying, she couldn't contain her curiosity at this point.

Nalan Chunbo switched on the exhaust hood, then turned on the gas. "What do you think?"

"He met the heroine while in the black hole, right?" Wen Shan raised her voice so she could be heard over the noise from the exhaust hood.

Nalan Chunbo turned and looked at Wen Shan as he fried the Sichuan peppercorns. Her eyes were bright, the way they were back then.

He wanted her eyes to be bright like this always.

The Sichuan peppercorns turned fragrant and the smell wafted through the kitchen. Nalan Chunbo turned his attention back to the pan and put the remaining ingredients in. He fried them for a while, then added the pork. He was cooking pork with garlic stems for her. 

"You want it to be that way?" Nalan Chunbo asked for Wen Shan's opinion.

"It's your script, it's up to you," Wen Shan replied bluntly. It was obvious that she did not want to influence his opinion.

"Okay, now I'm giving you the chance to decide," Nalan Chunbo said as he added the garlic stems into the fried pork.

The way he said it sounded like he would have agreed to whatever Wen Shan decided on.

Like a man pampering his girlfriend. 

Wen Shan thought about it.

"I'm not going to touch your script. If that's how you want romance to be written, then let it be written that way," Wen Shan scoffed and went back to the living room.

Nalan Chunbo could not help but smile. What if she did not buy it?
