The fact that Hua Cheng is both rubbish at calligraphy and seems well read in every single language presented in the TGCF world is a beautiful touch.
Why can Hua Cheng read pretty much every script put in front of him? Well, he's extraordinarily intelligent... but I don't think that's the main reason.
The main reason is because HC is so literate is because... if there was a single clue to Xie Lian's presence in any script, any scroll, any tablet, any temple, Hua Cheng was going to make damn sure he did not miss it.
It's such a subtle little touch, but my god is it profound.
