Chapter 745: Bonus Extra: Couple Q&A (Part 1)
50 Questions
1. Name?
Wen Jianyan: That depends on the situation.
I have had different names in different periods, in different places, and under different circumstances.
He shrugged: But right now, I only go by Wen Jianyan.
Wu Zhu rubbed the curse marks on his forearm and smiled.
Wen Jianyan didn’t look at him: Hurry up, your turn.
Wu Zhu withdrew his gaze: Wu Zhu.
2. Gender?
Wen Jianyan: As you can see, male.
Wu Zhu: Male.
3. Age?
Wen Jianyan: Twenty-four.
Wu Zhu: …
Wen Jianyan hesitated: Speaking of which… how old are you exactly?
Wu Zhu: …………
Wen Jianyan: Uh, please just put down unknown, thanks.
4. Birthday?
Wen Jianyan: I’m not sure what’s written on my birth certificate, but all the kids treat the day they entered the orphanage as their birthday. Mine is January 31st.
He blinked: When I was little, I could get an extra cookie on this day every year.
Wu Zhu pondered for a long time: July 15th. (T/N: Ghost Festival on the lunar calendar).
Wen Jianyan: …?
He was a little surprised: I thought you were as old as the heavens or something…?
Wu Zhu: Perhaps.
He turned his head, his gaze falling on Wen Jianyan: Strictly speaking, I indeed do not have a birth year or month. But I do have a moment when I opened my eyes and gained consciousness for the first time…
It was during the very first ritual, the moment you reached your hand out to me.
5. What do you think of your own personality?
Wen Jianyan: Pretty good, right? Anyway, no one else has really complained much.
Wu Zhu: Good.
6. What do you think of the other’s personality?
Wu Zhu: Very good.
Wen Jianyan: His level of socialization is low, his jealousy is too strong, and he’s too aggressive toward the vast majority of humans.
Wu Zhu: ?
Wen Jianyan did a sharp verbal U-turn: —But I really like it, truly, completely my type.
7. When and where did you two meet?
Wen Jianyan: This question is too complicated. If I really expand on it, I’m afraid I wouldn’t finish explaining even after several days and nights. Pass.
8. What was your first impression of the other?
Wen Jianyan: Didn’t we pass? …Eh, fine, let’s just go with the first time in my memory.
He propped up his chin and thought for a moment: Pretty scary. I thought my life was going to end in his hands.
Wu Zhu: Delicious.
Wen Jianyan: …
Suddenly, he thought of something: Wait, are you talking about the first time in your memory or the first time in my memory?
Wu Zhu: Same.
Wu Zhu: Both delicious.
Wen Jianyan: …
9. What do you like about the other?
Wen Jianyan hesitated for a moment: He’s different from anyone I’ve ever met. Reckless, unshakable, very determined, very…
He thought for a bit, and finally came to a conclusion: Very pure.
Wu Zhu: Every point.
Wen Jianyan: …
Wen Jianyan: I want to change my answer.
He gave a fake smile: Every point!
10. What do you dislike about the other?
Wen Jianyan: Do you guys have half an hour?
Wu Zhu: Obsessed with human schedules.
Wen Jianyan: ? When did I…
Wu Zhu: Must sleep at night and wake up in the morning, must eat three meals a day, making love must be kept under—
Wen Jianyan: Ahhhhhhh!
Wu Zhu: ?
Wen Jianyan: What I dislike most is his lack of a filter and that he doesn’t have a single shred of shame a human should have, thanks.
11. If you were to use an animal as a metaphor, what do you think the other is? Why?
Wu Zhu: A bird.
Beautiful feathers, smart, sweet-talking.
Wen Jianyan: A snake.
Although he looks quite dangerous, he’s actually a bit silly.
He paused: Wait, am I on your menu?
Wu Zhu: Mm.
Wen Jianyan thought about it again, and smiled carelessly: Forget it, it doesn’t matter… you’re on my menu too anyway.
12. If you were to give a gift to the other, what would it be?
Wu Zhu: Various gold items, various sparkling gemstones.
Wen Jianyan nodded with a beaming smile: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Immediately after, he leaned in and whispered something into Wu Zhu’s ear.
A flash of fire ignited deep in Wu Zhu’s eyes, and his entire body leaned forward.
Wen Jianyan was quick-handed and pressed him right back down: Calm down.
Not now.
13. What gift do you want for yourself?
Wen Jianyan: I like whatever he gives me.
Wu Zhu took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down: …Mm, same.
14. Who confessed first?
Wen Jianyan: Me.
Wu Zhu was puzzled: ?
Wen Jianyan: What?
Wu Zhu: I was clearly earlier.
Wen Jianyan pinched the bridge of his nose: How many times do I have to tell you… threatening to eat me does not count as a confession!
15. When was your first date?
Wu Zhu: Define a date.
Wen Jianyan: A date? It’s when two people with mutual feelings spend time alone together…
He caught a glimpse of Wu Zhu preparing to speak, and suddenly grew alert: After leaving the Nightmare.
Wu Zhu slowly closed his mouth that he was just about to open.
He recalled for a moment and said reluctantly: The forty-fifth day after leaving the Nightmare.
16. What did you do on your first date?
Wen Jianyan: When it comes to dates, I’m a traditionalist. Anyway, just flowers, chocolates, dinner, that sort of thing…
Wu Zhu: Did it.
Wen Jianyan: …
Wen Jianyan was bewildered: Ah?
