âD*mn it. What kind of dumb luck is this?â
Seeing that he was angry, the roommates all quietened down, not daring to make a sound.
The door opened, and Xu Dongqing walked in with a book in his hand.
At that moment, the roommates looked at his face and suddenly didnât know what to say. In their eyes, Xu Dongqing had never been taken seriously. When they were in junior high and high school, they were fed up with the way the top students in their class looked down on them and ridiculed them for being underachievers. Therefore, when the top student Xu Dongqing was assigned to their dormitory and was bullied and humiliated by Ling Yuang, they were secretly happy.
So what if his grades were good? Did he think everyone was like Song Yaoyao. He was a poor boy with no background and no looks. Did he want to stand out in Feng City, where there were so many talented people?
The future wasnât determined by results!
But they forgot that even if the future wasnât determined by results, it could be determined by hard work. People who didnât have results and didnât work hard, who only knew how to be jealous, were destined to achieve nothing.
âUh⦠Youâre back!â someone finally said in an embarrassed tone.
âYes.â
Xu Dongqing nodded slightly, then quietly walked to his bed to pack his things.
Everyone was stunned.
Ling Yuang stood aside coldly. âYouâre not even famous yet, yet youâre already planning to move to another place?â
âNo.â
Xu Dongqing explained softly, âThis is Director Songâs idea. There will definitely be a lot of changes to the script in the future. If I stay in the dormitory, itâs inevitable that Iâll disturb your sleep. Alsoâ¦â
There was another reason; he didnât say it out loud, but everyone knew it.
Ling Yuang sneered again.
Xu Dongqing had been at the university for more than a year, and the most things he owned were probably books. Huo Si had said that he could throw away all his clothes and bedding, but he could not bear to do that. His mother had personally made them for him. They felt like home.
Although he had been ridiculed countless times because of his bedding, he was used to it.
âIâm leaving. Goodbye.â
After packing his things, Xu Dongqing walked towards the door.
Ling Yuang pursed his lips and stared at the back of Xu Dongqingâs head.
Just then, a hair-raising voice sounded. It was the man from the other dayâ¦
âSo slow. Tsk, I already told you not to bring those. Hurry up. I still have to go back and protect Miss Song.â Huo Si snatched the items from Xu Dongqingâs hand and strode towards the corridor with one hand holding them.
For Xu Dongqing, the thing that was almost too heavy to lift was as light as a roll of toilet paper in Huo Siâs hands.
Ling Yuang held back his unpleasant words.
People gradually stepped out of their rooms to watch Xu Dongqing leave.
At this moment, they did not realize that after this goodbye, the person they had mocked and bullied in the past would stand in a position that they could not reach.
Many of them were regretful, but they did not say it for now.

âI donât want to go to school! Song Yaoyao! Have you asked my opinion? I donât want to go to school! I donât like to study!â
Huo Tian pushed the door open and entered. Her angry expression froze on her face, and her face instantly turned red. It was not right to stay where she was.
Old Hou chuckled and put down his chess piece. âLooks like Miss Song has something to settle, so Iâll be leaving first. We can play this game again when we have time.â
âAlright, Iâll send you off.â
Huo Tian followed behind Song Yaoyao in embarrassment, waiting for Old Hou to leave. Song Yaoyao looked at her indifferently. âWhat is it?â
Huo Tian stammered, âI-I already said it.â
âGo tell your Uncle, donât tell me.â
Song Yaoyao rubbed her wrist and walked upstairs.
âM-my uncle doesnât care about these things! You made the decision on your own. I didnât even say I wanted to go to school. Do you know that youâre unfairly pulling relations to get me in?â
âI know.â Song Yaoyao glanced at her. âIf I donât use relations, do you think you could get in with your grades?â
Huo Tian: ââ¦â
She felt hurt!
âHow can you look down on me? Even if you donât help me, I can do it myself!â
âYou said it.â
Huo Tianâs eyes fired up. âYes, I did!â
âOkay.â Song Yaoyaoâs eyes curved, and her voice was soft. âThen Iâll tell Huo Jiu to arrange for you to take the exam. If you canât pass, youâll be humiliated.â
She clapped her hands and walked briskly towards the study room.
Huo Tian waved her fists angrily at her back. âDonât look down on me! Itâs just an exam, itâs nothing for me!â
âGood luck, my eldest niece!â
A casual voice sounded and the study room door closed.
Huo Tian mumbled and suddenly realized something was wrong. âWait⦠There seems to be something wrongâ¦â
The next day, Huo Tian came to her senses and refused to take the exam. Song Yaoyao had a faint smile on her face, âAre you refusing because youâre not good enough? Itâs fine if you pass the exam and decide not to go, but iâm afraid you have no confidence to pass the exam. Thatâs why you donât want to go.â
âIâll pass it for you to see! Iâll show you my true strength!â Huo Tian put her hands on her hips in anger and immediately went to take the exam.
Song Yaoyao was not worried that Huo Tian would not be able to pass the exam; the Huo Family did not have any idiots. Whether it was academics or talent, Huo Tian could still meet expectations.
After the exam that day, Huo Tian came back arrogantly.
âWhat do you think? Do you still doubt me?â Huo Tian threw the admission letter in front of Song Yaoyao and raised her chin proudly.
âMm, impressive.â
Song Yaoyao gave a perfunctory compliment.
In Huo Tianâs eyes, Song Yaoyao was acknowledging her ability. She said slyly, âOf course, take a look at who I am!â
Elder Huo liked children with good grades. In the past, she had worked hard for this. Thinking of this, she felt unsettled and secretly glared at Song Yaoyao.
Song Yaoyao narrowed her eyes as she sat in her chair and sipped her tea. She reminded her faintly, âHuo Tian, be careful of your attitude.â
Coughâ
Huo Tian touched her nose. âWhatâs wrong with my attitude! My attitude is better than yours.â
âOh, since thatâs the case, Iâll take you out to play. Are you coming?â
Huo Tian was delighted but held back her emotions. She asked awkwardly, âIs this considered a reward?â
âNo.â Song Yaoyao smiled. âWeâre location-scouting for the new movie. Iâm just joining in the fun.â
Huo Tian: â???â
Song Yaoyao! What the f*ck! Why?

Province X was a place surrounded by mountains. It was vast and sparsely populated, and the scenery was as beautiful as a painting. Many of the buildings still retained the style of the past, and the bricks and tiles were engraved with traces of history.
Tang Xinrou massaged her shoulders. âBaby, if youâre going to play, you should at least go somewhere else. Whatâs so fun in the mountains?â She was about to die from exhaustion.
âIf I knew, I wouldnât have come.â
Huo Tian was carrying a bag on her back and another bag on the front. Judging by the color, it wasnât hers. It was pink and pretty.
She cursed endlessly in her heart and mumbled to herself, âAt her age, sheâs still carrying such a childish bag.â
Song Yaoyao lowered her head to look at the camera. âAre you unhappy?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
