Chapter 2

"No, I just want to confirm the time. In half an hour, I think I can hand in a good work. " Kevin is still confident.

However, Kevin's self-confidence in other students seems to be just a persistent overconfidence. Some students even think that his abnormality at this time is due to yesterday's failure. Including his best friend kovani.

"It's a boast. A literary genius like Augustine has to polish an article for a long time, let alone him."

"I have to admire his self-confidence, but this blind self-confidence seems very ignorant. To take part in such a powerful literary competition, one naturally has to come up with a strong article. But how can he possibly write a good article in half an hour? "

"Maybe he was hit by a confession of failure. You know, Augustine is his rival. "

No one would expect Kevin to write a good work in half an hour, because they like Augustine can't do it.

"Kevin, I'm glad you have that confidence. But you know what? It took Augustine 23 days from signing up to handing in the manuscript, that is to say, he handed in the manuscript of the competition the day before yesterday. Are you sure you can finish a work in half an hour? "

Collison is a kind teacher, and he doesn't want to say too much words to attack Kevin, so he can only say so tactfully.

Yes, people who take part in this literary competition all dream of entering the semi-finals and becoming famous in the literary world. Therefore, they are very strict with their works. They always fix and modify them.

Augustine has always been regarded as the pride of Edinburgh University's future because of his father's relationship, and the teachers and principals of the university generally believe that his future will be linked with literary giants, and even win the Nobel Prize for literature.

In other words, this considered literary genius has to revise more than ten times to hand in the manuscript. What's more, Kevin, who has such a poor literary level, wants to complete a good work in half an hour. That's fantastic.

"Dear Mr. collison, I think I can. But I'm sorry, I may not be interested in your class Kevin said.

"This is Edinburgh University. Freedom is the purpose of this school. You can do whatever you want, even in my classroom. I just hope you can hand in a work in half an hour. " Collison said magnanimously.

Collison is trying to give Kevin a break this time. After all, he doesn't want to hit each other too much. In order to avoid making Kevin want to do extreme behavior.

In this way, Kevin sat down, and then began to remember which British literary magnate's works should be copied down.

Now the time is only half an hour. Naturally, he can't copy those long speeches, otherwise he will not have enough time just to write. So Kevin thought of poetry.

There are many poets in England on earth. Among them, Shelley and Yeats are the most famous.

So, thinking about it, Kevin decided to take Shelley's "Rose of love" as his entry.

The rose of love is one of Shelley's representative romantic poems, which is divided into three paragraphs, each sentence is brilliant, especially the third is the sublimation of the whole poem.

Time cannot destroy love,

But the flower of love will suffer if it is unkind,

Even if it is blooming in the shade of fantasy,

It will wither suddenly and make you off guard.

Time cannot destroy love,

But love will be destroyed by love,

Will destroy its shrine with its bright red light.

In the world with numerous literary works, such a simple poem can cause a sensation, not to mention Britain in the parallel world with blank literary works. Therefore, Kevin is very confident that if this work goes to the hands of the reviewers, he will be able to enter the semi-finals. Because the classic is always classic, no matter in which era, which star.

"The rose of love" is not very long. It took Kevin more than ten minutes to write it neatly on the paper.

When collison finished his lecture, he handed the work and his materials to collison. Collison glances at Kevin in surprise and takes his manuscript. However, he did not read the articles carefully.

Collison has been in charge of Kevin for three years. He is very clear about Kevin's literary level, which is how to describe it in a bad word.

"It's very good that you finished a competition in just half an hour. Well, I'll help you deliver it to the organization. I hope you can make it to the second round With a kind smile, collison walked out of the classroom.

At this time, the students were also surprised that Kevin could complete a work in such a short time, but they were not optimistic that he could enter the semi-finals. After all, being able to write doesn't mean being able to write well.

Kovani was the first to walk up to Kevin, and then he still had a smiling face.

"Hey, man, you're great. But you don't have to. "

“what？” Kevin wondered.

"Dear Kevin, we are close friends. Don't I know you? You just don't want the woman you like to fall in love with Augustine, who is a writer. What he should be proud of is his literary ability. Maybe the significance of your participation in this competition is to prove to Linda that you also have this ability. But... "Kovani tried to stop.

"No, kovani, I think you're wrong. I won't do anything for a woman who worships money. She's not worth it. I only take part in this literature competition because I really like literature, and I plan to take the road of literature in the future. " Kevin said to kovani with a serious face.

Kovani listened, stretched out his dark palm, and then put it on Kevin's forehead, after making sure the other person wasn't saying the wrong thing because of a high fever. He just said, "Kevin, you're really a little bit out of whack today. You know, I've known you for so many years, and I haven't seen any literary works that you like to read, let alone write. "

Yes, because of the poverty of his family, Kevin had no extra money to buy literary works. This is also the reason for his poor literary ability.

"Don't worry, the former lazy Kevin Stephen will no longer exist. Oh, kovani, I'm sorry. There's something else at home. I think I need to leave

"All right, man, be happy." Kovani still patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.

Kevin's home is in an apartment in Edinburgh, not too far away from school. So, after class every day, he would choose to go home and reunite with his family.

At this time, Kevin's parents are at work. When they go back, Kevin is the only one in the room. This is a room with two bedrooms and one living room. Kevin has one room by himself. The other room is reserved for Kevin's parents. The room is not very big, but it costs 700 pounds a month.

Kevin came home so early for a reason. After thinking about everything, he plans to do something in Britain, which is to fulfill his dream on earth.

When he was on earth, Kevin's ideal was to be a great writer. Unfortunately, due to bad luck, it was a big rush until the rebirth.

Now God let him come to this blank literature of England, he must complete his ideal. Besides, this is a poor family. Maybe writing a book will change everything.

So he wants to write a work of literary masters as soon as possible, and then submit it to the publishing house.

After drinking a glass of water in the living room, Kevin is about to turn around and go into the room to write. There was a knock on the door.

"Hi, is your father in?" Kevin goes to open the door, only to find that it's the landlord, Steve.

The landlord, Steve Jobs, a sixty year old man, divorced. Occasionally, I would bring one or two beautiful women back to spend Spring Festival with him. Kevin had seen him bring two big ass women back to the room, and they didn't leave until the next day.

"I'm very sorry. My father has gone to work and won't be back until evening." Kevin, tell me the truth.

Although he was reborn into this Kevin Stephen, his mind still retains all the memories of this man, all the things in the parallel world, he is clear.

"Oh, please tell him tonight that he has been in arrears for three days. It needs to be paid. " Jobs said helplessly.

When Kevin heard this, he remembered that his father had not paid his rent this month because he had not paid his salary.

"Well, thank you. Dear Mr. jobs. "

After returning to the room, Kevin's heart could not calm down for a long time. This is a poor family. He was born here again. Something must be changed.

"Unfortunately, there are few poor people in developed countries like Britain. How could I be so unfortunate that I was born again into this poor family. " Kevin couldn't help sighing.

Exclamation doesn't solve all the problems. When he returns to his room, Kevin begins to think about whose masterpiece to write in his first book.
