N-A-A Chapter 325
Chapter 325
"This is the price paid for excessive pursuit of high-quality life, just like some people would rather take on a 30-year mortgage to buy a house, and their lives are ruined..."
Xingqiu was filled with emotion. He felt that he almost understood this story. It was about a vain woman who destroyed her life for her own selfish desires. The connotation was to advise people to cherish the present and not to excessively pursue things beyond their abilities.
The connotation and intention were good. In Xingqiu's opinion, this story was also a good work.
But he felt that it was a little bit worse than "The Story of Magi" written by Qianjian before.
Where is the difference?
The difference is at the end.
Xingqiu was a little regretful: "If there is a shocking reversal at the end, this is Qianjian's style."
There are not many stories left. Xingqiu plans to finish reading quickly and then read the next story.
[One Sunday, Mathilde accidentally met the owner of the necklace, Mrs. Forestier.
She was still young and beautiful, while Mathilde was old and vicissitudes.
But Mathilde had no jealousy or shyness in her heart. She walked up to greet her friend generously and explained the necklace incident and her hardships in the past ten years.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Forestier said in astonishment: "Alas. Poor Mathilde, but my necklace was fake, worth at most 500 gold francs..."】
The story ended abruptly.
Only 162 words.
Xingqiu felt as if he had read an article of more than 10,000 words.
The content contained in it directly impacted his soul, causing his whole mind to be confused now.
The necklace... was actually fake?
He guessed that the heroine would buy a fake necklace to return to the other party, but he never thought that the necklace the other party borrowed was actually a fake necklace!
For such a fake necklace worth only 500 gold francs, someone actually sacrificed his life?
How ironic?
How absurd?
This...
Xingqiu felt his mouth dry, so he picked up the coffee beside him and drank it all!
The bitter taste filled his mouth, and he suddenly widened his eyes and stood up abruptly!
This ending? This familiar feeling? This shock that touched the soul?
It was him!
That's right! It was him!
Qianjian!
It must have been written by him!
After Xingqiu figured it out, he laughed.
"Even if the name is hidden, the shining person still can't cover up his own light."
Without thinking, he directly cast all three votes in his hand, and then selected [Qianjian] in the guess column in front.
"I'm sure this must be Qianjian's work!"
Xingqiu was very confident.
"The ending written by others doesn't have such a strong taste!"
Of course, to be on the safe side, he continued to speed up and finish reading the rest of the works. After reading it, Xingqiu was more certain that this "Necklace" was definitely written by Qianjian!
Readers' discussions are becoming more and more intense.
"This novel is set in the 19th century. It seems to be satirizing the heroine's vanity, but if you look closely, the people in this novel seem to live a decadent life of luxury and debauchery. They are greedy for enjoyment and material pursuits. Everyone wants to get rid of their current situation and join the upper class, but they often fall into a more tragic fate."
"If you compare it a little bit, you can find that the characters in this novel seem to be able to find prototypes in today's society, and even some backgrounds are very consistent with some situations in today's society..."
"It seems to be criticizing the previous system of the bourgeoisie in power, but it is actually using the past to satirize the present, right?"
As soon as this comment came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
"Fuck, you really dare to say that! The author of this novel is also really brave! Can all this be used to satirize?"
"I'm already in awe! In our society today, there are many vain people! But if those people encounter the situation in the novel, I'm afraid they are not as good as the heroine. At least the heroine dares to take responsibility!"
"That's absolutely true. Only those who have experienced it can empathize more. Not everyone has the courage to take responsibility for a big disaster."
"The heroine's husband is also a man. He is willing to accompany his wife to pay off the debt when she makes such a big mistake. If it were now, I'm afraid they would have started writing a divorce agreement long ago."
"Haha, husband and wife are birds of the same forest. When disaster strikes, they fly away separately, right?"
......
In the heated discussion, people feel better about the author of this novelStrange.
Who on earth could write such a masterpiece?
"The ending of this novel has a feeling of [Thousand Swords Ending], and Qian Jian also participated in the event this time. Could it be written by him?"
"It's hard to say. The authors participating this time are all very capable. There are also several articles that use [Thousand Swords Ending]. It is impossible to be 100% sure that this is written by Qian Jian. It may be someone else."
"I think someone with such writing skills must be a famous writer!"
"The writer's literary talent is unquestionable. The number of words in this novel is only more than a thousand words! It is difficult to conquer readers with more than a thousand words. I don't need to explain too much. Without further ado, I voted for "The Necklace" with all three votes!"
"I voted! I must vote! There are not many novels that can conquer me. "Wolf" is one, "The Gift of the Magi" is one, and now "The Necklace" is one!"
"I'm already looking forward to it. When the author's name is revealed, I must take a closer look to see who can write this work! I will become a fan directly!"
"......"
Soon, as the number of readers' votes increased, "The Necklace" deservedly occupied the top spot!
Its huge number of votes steadily surpassed the second and third places, and directly surpassed the second place by a large margin!
It can be said that the victory or defeat is already determined, and there is not much suspense at all!
Seeing this result, not only readers, but also writers in the industry are talking about it, and they are very curious!
"What the hell? Who wrote this article? It's so amazing?"
"I can't tell. Judging from the writing style, it has the shadow of Qianjian, but I can't be sure. After all, everyone has seen "The Gift of the Magi", and it's not difficult to imitate that ending."
"Could it be Lao Lin? Hasn't he been thinking about the [Thousand Swords Ending] recently? He also said that he has achieved some success?"
"It shouldn't be Lao Lin. Although he participated in the competition and the article he published did use the [Thousand Swords Ending], he just asked me privately if I knew who wrote "The Necklace."
