Japanese novels were known for their detective, reasoning, and suspense genres.
There were countless literary masters.
Although Sakazaka Rion was a bit inappropriate at times as a teacher, her writing ability was undeniable.
Rion was actually a very famous screenwriter who specialized in adapting suspense genre novels to films.
Many films became box office winners after they were released.
She had many loyal and stable fans in both the United States and Japan.
Therefore, the organizers of the Fall Day Cup invited her to be the judge and mentor of the competition.
There were too many investors who came to her at the dinner party last night, so she was constantly engaged in social activities.
As a result, she really had no way to extricate herself from entertaining them.
That was why she did not have time to see Fang Yuan.
Early that morning, Rion had asked the front desk for Fang Yuan’s hotel room number and key card. She fiddled with the key card in her hand and wanted to go over to look for him.
Since the organizers had arranged for a mentor-buddy system, Sakazaka Rion made up her mind to become Fang Yuan’s mentor.
She was very curious what kind of surprises Fang Yuan, who had debuted with the fantasy novel “The Coiling Dragon”, would bring in his creation of suspense novels.
“Fang Yuan! Fang Yuan, are you still sleeping? It’s time to wake up!”
She whistled out of tune with delight as she tapped the key card on the door and pushed the door open.
That was when Rion heard a tired yet contented female voice coming from inside the room, “Fang Yuan…I have to say that you were really amazing last night…”
Rion was shocked!
She was used to the complicated private affairs of people who dabbled in literature.
“Fang Yuan, I didn’t expect such a goody-two-shoes like you would do such a thing behind my back!”
Rion strode into the bedroom as if she was about to catch her husband having an affair with someone else.
“Tell me honestly, did you really call the number on the back of your key card?!”
Rion lifted the quilt that was piled up on the bed.
The person hiding under the quilt was none other than a disheveled and tired-looking beauty, Dean Sherry Young.
“Dean…Dean Sherry?!”
Rion had been writing horror stories for a long time and was very good at telling ghost stories. Due to this, she was quite a brave soul.
The students even joked with each other that when Rion told ghost stories, even ghosts would probably get scared.
However, when Rion saw this scene, her expression was as shocked as her usual audience when she told her ghost stories.
This was the Poet Laureate, Sherry Young, the most respected Goddess of Literature in all of Iowa!
Even someone as bold as Rion would not dare to take liberties with Sherry.
From the looks of it, Fang Yuan managed to seduce Sherry and did all sorts of intense exercise last night?
‘This man is really something!’
Rion, with her mind stuck in the gutter, had imagined many unseemly and indecent scenes.
When Rion turned to look at Fang Yuan, she could not help but feel respect for this man.
Fang Yuan said, “I know what you’re thinking, but this is just a misunderstanding! Let me explain!”
“No, no, there’s no need. I know that you’re just gonna make up a story to cover this up.”
Sakazaka Rion winked at Fang Yuan. “Don’t worry, I understand…I understand everything…”
Fang Yuan was speechless.
“Anyway, I don’t care how ‘amazing’ you are in bed or what methods you used to seduce Sherry.”
Rion snorted and crossed her arms. “I know that men are sexual beings and everyone has their private lives, but for the next two weeks, you’re a contestant here. Since you’re my student, your task is to achieve good results in the Fall Cup, so I certainly won’t go easy on you.”
She went forward and grabbed Fang Yuan’s hand to yank him out of bed.
“Fang Yuan! You gotta snap back into writing and not indulge in your desires. So, for this Fall Cup competition, I’ve decided to be your mentor!”
“Huh?”
“What? Any objections?”
Sakazaka Rion glared at him. “I know that with your stand-offish personality, you definitely didn’t get a mentor yesterday. I’ll just offer you my wisdom for two weeks then. Don’t look at me like this! When it comes to writing horror novels, I’m pretty experienced. Even Hollywood invited me to hold a few sharing sessions, but I rejected them all. Since you’re my student, I’ll make an exception and teach you. You’re really lucky to have me!”
Fang Yuan said, “Oh, but I’ve already promised Sherry that she could be my mentor.”
“Do you think I believe you?”
Rion looked at Fang Yuan with a teasing gaze as she thought, ‘Do you think I was born yesterday? Sherry’s lying on your bed and even said such things. I know what a single man and woman could do in bed all night. Do you think I’ll believe that you actually discussed literature or come up with the outline of your novel? Please, what kind of outline could they come up with under the sheets? I’m sure whatever they did was arousing…’
“Fang Yuan, stop making excuses.”
Rion’s eyebrows were furrowed. “From now on, I will conduct Devil’s Training in my room every morning, and I expect you to be there!”
