However, just as the “historical conspiracy theory” was growing stronger in the comments section, a reader quickly shouted out.
[Please stop! Don’t make our Dreven seem so weak! After all, Dreven has just reawakened, which is equivalent to being reborn! He’ll definitely avoid history repeating itself!]
After all, since the serialization of “Eternal Night Rose”, Dreven’s image had consistently been that of a deeply affectionate, strong, noble, and mysterious figure, always giving people an unparalleled sense of security and confidence.
This was also one of the key reasons why Dreven’s character was so popular.
[If you ask me, Dreven absolutely couldn’t be harmed by anyone. Even if we had to say that someone could hurt him, I’d think only Su Yan could truly do it! So, I won’t allow you to ruin the image of His Majesty Dreven who is cool and powerful ahhh!]
Especially among Dreven’s loyal fans, many believed these remarks were part of a conspiracy by Xiao’s fans to weaken Dreven’s image.
Although these were unintentional remarks, they strangely revealed the truth about a certain knife that was still hidden in the plot.
In fact, it was the earlier reactive comment that made many interstellar readers realize something.
[Now that you mention it, I hadn’t realized that the timeline in “Eternal Night Rose” is indeed chaotic and retrospective. Looking at it now, Dreven really does seem to have been”reborn”! Even following Su Yan back to the current Blood Moon era. So here’s a question: Did Dreven meet Su Yan before? What happened between them?]
[Yeah, especially that last line in this update: “turning Su Yan into a Bart clan member again.” What does “again” mean!? Did Dreven have a bad ending in the last life? Has he been waiting for Su Yan’s reincarnation all this time? Or is it the new life of the next generation?]
[Oh my god, the more I think about it, the more my brain feels inadequate. Has Dreven really been in slumber for so many years, just to wait for Su Yan’s reincarnation? QAQ This… this is too affectionate, right…?]
Once the analysis followed this line of thought, it immediately dug up more details and possibilities.
In fact, the latest update from Yu Mian intentionally revealed some clues about Su Yan’s crossing back to the Blood Moon era and Dreven’s awakening.
If you read closely, you could even realize that in the previous life, Dreven and Su Yan’s ending was far from a good one.
It seemed there were endless hidden circumstances…
Moreover, once the concept of whether Su Yan was reincarnated was involved, and whether the Su Yan from the past and the current Su Yan were the same person naturally sparked endless controversy.
[Although you all think Dreven is very affectionate, am I the only one who thinks this is unfair to the current Su Yan?]
[Yeah, Dreven knows everything from the past, and even had countless stories with the past Su Yan. But the current Su Yan knows nothing about it! Does Dreven love the current Su Yan, or the Su Yan from the past?]
[Help, you guys analyze too well… I’ve been enjoying sugar recently, but why did it suddenly turn into a knife with all this analysis? I’m begging you, please stop talking! I just want to eat some sugar, don’t make me think so much!! [cries and covers ears]]
While more innocent interstellar readers who just wanted the sweet moments were undoubtedly tortured by this group of “analysis experts”, they felt wronged like innocent fish caught in the fire of other people’s drama.
You analysis-driven plot enthusiasts can argue your conspiracy theories all you want, but why kick over our sweet candy jar!?
This is too much!
Originally, we just came to enjoy the comments, who would’ve thought this fire would burn us too!
After all, in the recent updates of “Eternal Night Rose”, the interactions between Su Yan and Dreven were undeniably sweet to the extreme.
Not only was there that unexpected kiss underwater, but even the everyday activities in the settlement were equally filled with sweetness.
Su Yan tried to teach Dreven some basic human behavioral principles, such as how, after participating in labor, one could choose their desired reward.
But Dreven had no interest in those spoils, which made him appear to outsiders like an altruistic, noble person who didn’t care for rewards, making people wish they could ask Su Yan, as the prophet, to have Dreven help them.
This naturally made Su Yan think that after becoming human, his Coal Ball was so “naive” that it was worrying. He wanted Dreven to think about what he wanted.
As a result, after hearing this, Dreven silently and seriously looked at Su Yan.
The meaning in his gaze made Su Yan’s face flush with an overwhelming sense of despair.
Could it be that after becoming human, Coal Ball still liked to stick to him like before?
Even though he used to encourage the coal ball by holding it in his arms and kissing it, there was no way he could continue to do that after it became human.
Eventually, Dreven gradually confirmed that Su Yan seemed to have some kind of “guard against” him when he was in human form.
From then on, every time Dreven finished helping with work and wanted a reward, he would turn back into his fluffy form, crouching in the grass and looking at Su Yan with longing eyes.
[[“Coal ball, you really are…”
And even though Su Yan tried to ignore Dreven’s wet eyes, he still couldn’t help but helplessly reach out to hug the little fluffy creature.
At night, Dreven would secretly turn back into his human form and pull Su Yan into his embrace, nuzzling and sniffing his neck and even the corners of his lips.
Even though Su Yan would gently push him away in his half-dreaming state, Dreven would follow the direction of his hand and gently kiss his fingertips.
And whenever Su Yan opened his eyes, he would find that the usually calm and silent Dreven would have extremely intense blood red in his eyes every time he sniffed his neck and ears.
But it was more like a struggle between his beastly instincts and rationality, repeatedly sniffing and confirming, but unwilling to pierce him with his sharp fangs.]]
This kind of super-sweet, tension-filled interaction was enough to make most interstellar readers scream wild. They couldn’t get enough and wished there were more of such scenes in “Eternal Night Rose”!
Everyone was absolutely enjoying it!
On one hand, they were looking forward to Dreven becoming even thicker-skinned and the plot becoming more exciting, while on the other hand, they hoped Su Yan would discover everything and throw this guy aside. They were so happy.
But now, after this analysis, everyone hesitated and realized—why does this sugar seem to have a knife hidden inside!?
No way, no way!
Fish Soup Noodles should not be that kind of person, right??
“Sigh, of course memories from a last life have to be like the sword of Damocles hanging over one’s head, only to be used at the crucial moment.”
And watching the interstellar readers, who had been happily eating sugar recently, gradually realize this, Yu Mian couldn’t help but smile sweetly.
In fact, between the two main protagonists in “Eternal Night Rose”, Dreven and Su Yan, there currently existed a “secret” that only Dreven knew.
That is, Dreven now completely possessed all the memories between them, which is why he could effortlessly find Su Yan again and approach his former lover in a more “calculating” manner…
But Su Yan, whose favorability was now being restored secretly by Dreven, was completely unaware of all this.
Therefore, once this “secret” was fully established, whether Su Yan would fall in love with Dreven again or not was up for debate—though, in some sense, the more Su Yan loved, the greater his trust in “Coal Ball”…
Once Su Yan recovered all the memories of the previous life, all sugar the readers had eaten now would turn into a knife that stabbed even deeper.
It was a bit evil of him.
“So how could I lose my vest? If I did, wouldn’t that mean receiving letters with razorblades overnight?”
Yu Mian silently flicked his fish tail and casually added a note in the author’s message: [“Eternal Night Rose” officially starts daily updates now ^O^.]
Upon seeing the latest author’s message, the entire comment section was immediately in an uproar, and for a moment, no one bothered to analyze whether this was a knife or sugar anymore.
After all, everyone rushed to celebrate that from now on, there would be daily updates, and they were so happy to eat this sweetness!
They couldn’t even imagine how happy life would be with Eternal Night Rose’s daily updates—Won’t everyone soon be able to see the relationship between the couple progress by leaps and bounds?!
“Seems like I need to go out tomorrow.”
After closing the light brain device, Yu Mian took out the recommendation letter he had kept hidden at the bottom of the drawer for a long time.
In fact, just today, the person sent by the Federation government contacted him again, asking about the progress of his third book.
After thinking about it for a while, Yu Mian realized that the issue with the third book was probably that he still needed to conduct more research on the reader base and market preferences.
And just like how he researched the Bart people before writing “Eternal Night Rose”, he needed to at least accumulate some basic military knowledge.
Writing supernatural novels and working part-time at a funeral home, writing about the entertainment industry and becoming an extra in Hengdian, writing about an interstellar Long Aotian and interning at the military—this makes sense!
The key was that the recommendation letter from Huo Ting was going to come in handy!
Yu Mian opened the introduction letter in his hand and realized that it was indeed a work recommendation, and the signature was Huo Ting’s personal seal.
This recommendation letter seemed to carry significant weight.
Just from staying in the aquarium during this time, he could tell that Huo Ting and the Hou family had considerable influence in the Federation’s military field.
Then isn’t the military recommendation letter written by Huo Ting in his own name just like the recommendation letter for postgraduate study written by a big shot in the field, with the main purpose of ensuring smooth progress?
“This guy’s not bad…”
He’s so generous, even recommending internships to strangers.
Moreover, Yu Mian suddenly realized that although he had written characters like Caesar, the wealthy and domineering CEO, or Dreven, the passionate and affectionate tyrant…
He had never touched a super-popular, hot character from the interstellar era.
[What is it?]
The little system couldn’t help but be curious.
“Of course, it’s the Grand Marshal!”
In many interstellar novels, the main protagonist is always a Grand Marshal!
Although it seems that in the Federation, the military is divided into legions, and the position of Grand Marshal is honorary, that doesn’t stop him from creating an alternate interstellar background. =w=
[…But are you sure you won’t cause Huo Ting a storm like with Kane?]
The little system became nervous.
“Uh, this, seems like there is some risk.”
‘Huo Ting introduced me to a job, and I end up writing him as a character in my novel…’
‘Uh, even though I am a fish, I still need some conscience, so I’ll put this idea on hold for now.’
With a bit of conscience but not much, Yu Mian reluctantly decided to temporarily give up on this hot character.
“However, I think the style of the third book will be quite different. I’m really considering something.”
[Hmm?]
“Do I really have to immediately use A Bowl of Fish Noodle’s account to publish the third book…”
Whenever Yu Mian thought about the tragic collision between “Eternal Night Rose” and “Contact Marriage”, in which one was updated daily and one met a disastrous crash, he felt deeply pained.
The key is, “Eternal Night Rose” will undoubtedly have knives coming up.
On one hand, releasing knives, on the other hand, writing a feel-good story, hmm…
‘If I were a reader, I’d probably want to throw the heartless author into the sea with me.’
[Uh, this, this?]
The little system was stunned by Yu Mian’s bold idea.
“Maybe I should delay it and write it after “Eternal Night Rose” is close to finishing?”
[But the military side seems to want the book quickly, right?]
Yu Mian held his chin and thought for a long time.
“Anyway, let’s first start with making a resume. It’ll be more suitable to take it with the recommendation letter to find an internship position!”
‘If I can’t figure it out for now, I might as well begin collecting material for my interstellar internship first.’
The next day, when Lu Wei happened to see Yu Mian’s resume lying on the table while he was returning books at the library, he rarely took the initiative to look at him.
“Are you looking for a job recently?”
“Huh?”
Yu Mian, who was still focused on taking notes, was startled when someone called him. Only then did he notice that Lu Wei had come:
“Yes, I’ve been thinking of finding a job. Staying at home all the time is quite boring.”
After hearing this, Lu Wei hesitated for a moment.
“Actually, if you’re willing, you could come work as my teaching assistant. It wouldn’t be very busy. You’d just need to teach the students your penmanship.”
After all, Lu Wei had always been deeply impressed by Yu Mian’s beautiful handwriting.
“Wow, I really appreciate it. But the unfortunate thing is, I just found a job.”
Yu Mian was quite surprised by Lu Wei’s offer, and in fact, he was a bit tempted.
There were so many job opportunities in the interstellar era!
But unfortunately, this involved his plans for the third book, which still couldn’t be interrupted.
After the conversation ended, Lu Wei watched as Yu Mian finished returning the books and then hurriedly disappeared again.
What a strange person.
He didn’t have a job, but he came to the library every day.
And the books he borrowed were all obscure ones related to the old interstellar history and research on the Bart people.
Recently, he had even started paying attention to interstellar military matters…?
Lu Wei didn’t intend to make himself seem like a creepy stalker.
It was just that Yu Mian had happened to leave the book he had just finished reading on the temporary book sorting shelf before leaving.
‘He really does have a broad range of interests.’
And Lu Wei couldn’t help but feel that Yu Mian didn’t seem like someone who lacked money.
Could he also be some strange race that, like him, enjoys drifting through the galaxies and experience different kinds of life?
Meanwhile, after the morning’s regular military meeting ended, Huo Ting had just left the conference hall when he received a rare, excited whisper from his secretary:
“The recommendation letter you sent out last time was used by that little writer. He actually came to the military to intern!”
