I Asked You to Write Pure Romance, and You Wrote 'My Love Is Gone, All I See Is Ruin'

Su Chen, who worked part-time selling grilled sausages, transmigrated to a parallel world lacking in entertainment after a gas explosion.

He discovered that the variety show he was competing on was called the Xia Nation New Screenwriter Competition.

Contestants wrote on the spot, with the judges setting each round's theme.

The first theme was Benevolence.

Everyone else wrote about repaying evil with virtue, but Su Chen saw the longing in their eyes.

They longed to reach the world, yet remained constrained by tradition.

Su Chen thought of the man who had cast aside kindness and compassion and broken with tradition: "Tradition is a consolation for the weak."

The audience was stunned!

"You can come up with that line by looking for inspiration at an internet cafe?"

"What have I been watching until now? A hundred ways to rehash cliches!"

"No wonder I've always felt like art had reached its limits!"

When asked to write about responsibility, he wrote, "And I would rather be forgotten."

When asked to write about pure love, he wrote, "Having lost my beloved forever, I look up to find only ruin."
