[R18] Erotic writing practice tutorial (1v1) – “Practical Tutorial on Sexy Literature (1v1)” on how flattering skills are developed 3 [English]
byLater, after Yu Manman completed the first draft, he went back to the dormitory to polish it for another day. He actually finished the short story of nearly 6,000 words before going to deliver food to Xiao Li at noon on Friday.
But after the initial excitement, Yu Manman went to buy a few selected works from previous issues of the publishing house, and began to feel uneasy again.
For a while I felt that my story was a bit naive, and for a while I felt that my rhetoric was not gorgeous enough. I changed it over and over again and sent it to Xiao Li. I then waited uneasily for a while. When the lights in the dormitory were almost out, Xiao Li’s phone call came.
The roommates had already gone to bed. Yu Manman was afraid of disturbing them after turning off the lights, so she hurried out of the dormitory and squatted in the stairwell to answer the phone.
“Teacher Xiao…”
“What did you change?”
When Xiao Li came home and saw the version that Yu Manman had revised, he called directly.Yu Manman heard something was wrong with Xiao Li’s tone, and was stunned for a moment before speaking: “Isn’t it a good change…”
He took a deep breath and minimized the document on the screen: “If what I saw at noon that day was such a pile of rhetoric, I wouldn’t have said so much to you.”
This was even more hurtful than directly saying that the change was not good. For a moment, Yu Manman was more panicked than being shocked. She opened her mouth to explain but didn’t know what to say. She was silent for a while and heard Xiao Li speak again: “Is this your first time participating in an essay competition?”
“Well…”
She has been a loser since high school. She did participate in an essay competition for extra points in the college entrance examination, but essays and short stories are completely different things.
“You’re not confident.” Xiao Li directly pointed out the ultimate reason behind Manman’s behavior, “What are you afraid of? Just say it doesn’t matter.”
When Yu Manman was immediately pointed out the crux of the matter, he squatted on the ground and pursed his lips in shame:
“I went online yesterday and looked at the works of that publishing house’s previous draft competition… I think they are so strong, their wording is much better than mine, and their stories feel more mature… I feel like I can’t compare to them in any way…”
She was originally only at the lower-middle level among her classmates. At that time, she was able to get into the university she is now not only because she was forced to study by Hu Xuan, but also partly because the admission score for local hukou was lower than that for overseas hukou.
Yu Manman slowly expressed his inner uneasiness while thinking about it. Xiao Li on the other end listened quietly, listening to her summarizing the narrative little by little. He didn’t speak until Yu Manman’s voice was silent:
“Vocabulary needs to be accumulated. If you insist on using those words without being able to master them, you will be like a child wearing adult clothes. Because of the abruptness, your entire sentence will be lumped together.”
“The most important thing about writing is not to use some so-called advanced words in your mouth to make it look powerful, but to be smooth and intuitive, and to completely present what you want to bring to readers before their eyes. This is enough, do you understand?”
Xiao Li’s voice returned to its usual cold tone. Yu Manman was still digesting it after listening, and the entire campus fell into deep darkness because of the lights-out time.
She licked her lips and looked at the dark dormitory building opposite: “But…Mr. Xiao, do you think I can be selected? I see that many of us are graduate students or even masters and doctoral students. This quota seems to be particularly difficult to get in universities…I don’t want to waste it…”
“You don’t waste anything.”
Everything was completely silent, and everywhere Yu Manman looked could see a continuous patch of darkness. Only a few lone stars in the sky slightly relieved the depression in her heart.
“Why are you so sure…”
“Because you are my student.”
When Yu Manman returned home, she took off her underwear, which was almost soaked with sweat, and threw it directly into the dirty clothes basket next to the bathroom, then stood directly under the shower.
Later, as Xiao Li said, she did not waste the quota and won an excellence award.Although it was just an excellence award without even a ranking, she was already the only college student to win the award.
During that time, the old professor was very fond of her. Every time he met her in the corridor before and after class, he always smiled at her.
But now the Certificate of Excellence Award has been stuffed away by her. The only thing Yu Manman remembers most clearly about this matter is Xiao Li’s words:
“Because you are my student.”
Those were not words that Xiao Li said casually because he couldn’t explain his unfounded trust. He’s determined tone made the words of that sentence exude a power of trust, like a beacon breaking through the darkness, giving Yu Manman a direction that felt helpless and confused that night.
Later, Xiao Li left and Yu Manman was no longer his student. When she had to solve many problems on her own that made her unable to find her direction, she would always subconsciously miss the night when the lights were turned off and the afternoon that was as quiet as a floating island in the sky.
I miss those days when Xiao Li was here, and I also miss being able to stand beside Xiao Li.
