Chapter 981: Chapter 911: Professor Wang Cos Again Chapter 981: Chapter 911: Professor Wang Cos Again After responding to Jin Mu, Lin Yuan also had to respond to the readers.
However, not now, and definitely not as Chu Kuang.
Lin Yuan planned to ask Yi An to help explain to the readers later.
Because right now, apart from changing the plot of the novel, anything Chu Kuang says would fall on deaf ears; it might even rile up the readers more—
At least for these few days.
Silence is golden for Chu Kuang.
And clearly, the readers are unable to comprehend Chu Kuang’s thoughts.
Instead, many people think this is the “arrogance” coming from the old rascal.
Think about the previous incidents when the old rascal wrote heartbreaking plots that triggered reader riots.
Did the old rascal ever respond?
Sure, Sherlock Hols had indeed responded.
But he didn’t respond to the readers; he responded to Xian Yu.
This misunderstanding led to The Return of the Condor Heroes still facing a barrage of curses on the second day of its release.
Titles like “arrogant and contemptuous” were unavoidably ntioned repeatedly by readers.
Anyway, it wasn’t the first ti the old rascal was labeled with such titles.
Be it arrogance.
Or cold-heartedness.
They are the eternal tags belonging to the old rascal.
Fortunately, Lin Yuan’s windows were not smashed.
The identity of Chu Kuang was still very well hidden.
There were rumors that:
Jin Yong’s house was in turmoil back then because of this matter, which had been reported.
There were also rumors claiming that the scene where Little Dragon Maiden was defiled was ghostwritten by soone else, and not by Jin Yong himself.
This claim was personally denied by Jin Yong.
However, it was true that soone did ghostwrite parts of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils later on.
And the most lively rumor was that Jin Yong wrote about Little Dragon Maiden’s loss of chastity because of his unrequited love for Xia ng—
Little Dragon Maiden was Xia ng in his heart.
When Xia ng embraced another, Little Dragon Maiden lost her virginity in The Return of the Condor Heroes.
“Reality is connected to fiction.”
Let’s not discuss the truth of these speculations for now.
Surely those who spread such gossip were malicious.
They were likely frustrated with the plotline about Little Dragon Maiden’s loss of virginity and decided to concoct stories, even to disgust the author—
At least Jin Yong never called to tell him about it.
And when The Return of the Condor Heroes reached the third day of its release.
There was only one day left of Lin Yuan’s three-day deadline.
Jin Mu grew impatient and called Lin Yuan, “There are still a lot of readers blocking the entrance at Silver Blue Books, why don’t you post an update to calm them down?”
Lin Yuan counter-asked, “What do I say?”
Jin Mu was suddenly at a loss for words; anything Chu Kuang said now would be t with backlash.
Unless he was willing to recognize his faults and change.
Lin Yuan spoke up, “Tell Silver Blue Books to provide so food and drinks for everyone, I’ll pay.”
Jin Mu: “…”
The suggestion was not bad, and Jin Mu accepted it.
So.
That day.
Soone was eating food and drinking water provided by Chu Kuang, and after they were nicely fed, continued to protest.
At that mont.
A representative from the public relations departnt of Silver Blue Books comnted softly, “The food and water you just had was courtesy of Teacher Chu Kuang.”
Damn!
There’s a saying that you’re short-handed when you take soone’s money and short-mouthed when you eat soone’s food.
The faces of the readers gathered at the door changed, and their montum in protesting almost vanished at this sudden turn.
…
On the other side.
In a classroom at a university.
Professor Wang from the literature departnt walked in holding a copy of The Return of the Condor Heroes.
As soon as he entered the classroom, so students caught sight of The Return of the Condor Heroes in his hand.
Imdiately, many students began shouting with a teasing tone, their faces filled with jest and ridicule:
“Professor Wang, have you read The Return of the Condor Heroes too?”
“I have, and even finished it, couldn’t put it down for three days.”
Professor Wang casually responded, leaving everyone dumbfounded with his answer.
Could not put it down, really?
This book that had shocked readers across all continents.
It was hard to imagine anyone describing their love for The Return of the Condor Heroes as “couldn’t put it down,” let alone think that these words would co from the old-fashioned Professor Wang.
Does Professor Wang have a special preference?
Professor Wang then countered the students below, “I have answered your question, but your responses to the assignnt I gave you last ti were broad and empty, all superficial. Now, you should know how to answer , what is a ‘hero’s mate’?”
The students below: “…”
This question again?
Professor Wang looked disappointed, “Chu Kuang has already provided the answer in The Return of the Condor Heroes, haven’t you understood it?”
“The greatest ‘hero’s mate’ serves the country and its people.”
As Professor Wang showed his disappointnt, a girl wearing glasses in the front row suddenly spoke up.
Whoosh!
At those words, the entire classroom fell silent!
The greatest ‘hero’s mate’ serves the country and its people?
Everyone was quietly savoring the answer, feeling an inexplicable stirring within.
They had all considered the answer to this question before, but no answer could compare to these eight characters!
And such an answer was actually found in The Return of the Condor Heroes?
On the podium.
Professor Wang was taken aback, “You finished it?”
He raised the copy of The Return of the Condor Heroes in his hand toward the girl who had spoken, showing a smile.
“I did,” the girl smiled back.
Professor Wang asked, “Did you enjoy it?”
The girl answered, “It was incredibly beautiful.”
Professor Wang, filled with gratification, said, “Very good, who else has finished reading? Show of hands.”
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A third of the class raised their hands.
Professor Wang asked these students, “After finishing it, are you still angry?”
The group of readers hesitated for a mont before shaking their heads, their expressions complex.
The remaining two-thirds of the students looked perplexed; they certainly had read The Return of the Condor Heroes too but had not finished it.
