Ha? What?”
“108 chapters?”
“That’s impossible. I’m fainting!”
“Teacher Zhang won’t stop till he scares you to death!”
“Why does it have to be 108 chapters? Why is the number so precise?”
There was quite a stir from the seats. From the Peking University students’ expression and speech, they showed their distrust. They could not believe nor accept it. After all, the 120 chapters of ‘Dream of the Red Chamber’ was entrenched too deeply in their hearts. We could forget that you said that the chapters after chapter 80 of ‘Dream of the Red Chamber’ were written by someone else, but now, great. You even denied the number 120?
The Redologist, Old Yang, immediately refuted, “Nonsense!”
Teacher Yang’s voice was very loud. The venue quickly quieted down!
The students all looked to see who had spoken. As the voice was output from speakers through the microphone, they could not tell the source of the voice. They could look around with their eyes. Finally, they found the person who spoke. Everyone looked towards the first row, where all the figures from the literary world were sitting.
