Chapter 455

Hearing my words, An Yun stopped walking up the stairs and turned to look at me.

"Hey……?"

Because I thought she would respond with a mechanical response like "Thank you" or "Is that so?" Instead, I panicked.

"That... what? Read it, will there be any problems?"

"No, that's not the case."

An Yun started to walk up again, and I followed her.

"Anyway, to be honest, I didn't understand much."

"Yeah. It's often said that."

"But it's amazing. After all, some works have been released to the public."

"Yeah……?"

As I said that, I suddenly remembered the editor I met yesterday.At that time, the person named Si Jue seemed to say that he hoped that I would persuade her to write a novel or something.

"Has An Yun only written short stories now?"

"Yes. Only short stories."

I remembered that I had talked about short stories and novels with An Yun before, and inadvertently hesitated whether I should avoid this topic.

At that time, when I said that a long story is better, An Yun interrupted the conversation a little unhappy.If the novel is brought up again here, An Yun might not be happy again.

After much hesitation, I considered the words and tried to ask: "Does An Yun like short stories?"

An Yun stopped again.I also stopped.

The two standing on the landing of the stairs are a bit awkward, like a boy who avoids eyes and ears and decides to confess, and a girl who is confessed.

"Like, or say..."

Soon An Yun opened his mouth, but stopped at this point and tilted his head.

"There are various reasons..."

"Various?"

An Yun didn't answer my question, but looked at me and said, "Xia Enxue, you said that novels are better, right?"

On the contrary, An Yun brought up the topic that others tried so hard to avoid.

"I said... what's wrong? What I asked was, does An Yun like short stories—"

Before he finished speaking, An Yun stretched out his hands to me to stop me.Seeing that I stopped talking, An Yun lowered his head and started talking again.

"That...may make you feel weird, can you listen to me?"

I nodded silently.

"Xia Enxue, have you ever imagined that you are the protagonist of a novel?"

This question is too abrupt, and now it's my turn to tilt my head.

"The main character...? Me...?"

An Yun ignored my doubts and continued talking.

"I think everyone thinks this way at times. I am the protagonist of a vigorous story, encountering various events, meeting and saying goodbye to various people, and this story unfolds in this way. If it is written as a novel, it is like a very It’s like a long, thick novel.”

"However," An Yun continued, "I don't think so. People are actually very small. If you compare it to a novel, at most you can only live out a short story equivalent to fifty or sixty manuscript papers. life."

Facing An Yun's remarks, I couldn't say a word.

What An Yun said was too philosophical, and it was very different from what people like me think about every day.Can not be sure, can not deny.All I could do was nod in response.

"Didn't you say that? I've never heard of a collection of short stories becoming a bestseller."

"Uh, uh..."

"I think you are right. There are indeed more novels that sell well. I think that is because people still prefer novels. Conversely, short stories are too short, too poor, and uninteresting. , There are many people who think this way.”

"Yeah?"
