Chapter 46 - School Forum (3)

Tickled by Zhao Wan, Chi Ying giggled and said in between breaths, “I started grade school a year early… skipped two grades… skipped junior year in junior high school and took the entrance examination for senior high school… okay, stop messing around already.”

“……!!” It took Zhao Wan a while before she was able to process everything that Chi Ying had just said and was stunned.

Chi Ying, too, was stunned. She had no idea how original owner did it, but just knew that she did.

And she was able to accomplished all those while using Lu JingYan as her goal and as her faith.

She wanted to become every bit as outstanding as he was. That was the only way that she could appear in front of him in her best possible self.

Chi Ying was touched by the original owner’s dedication.

And precisely because the original owner was extremely outstanding for the first eighteen years of her life and that Song QingFeng thought very highly of her, so much that he threatened to resign from his position, before the school agreed to let her return.

146th Floor: Alright, everyone. You can all stop guessing now. I am Chi Ying’s best friend. She just told me that she started grade school a year early, skipped two years, and also skipped her junior year in junior high school and went straight to senior high school.

147th Floor: !!!!!

148th Floor: !!!!!

149th Floor: !!!!!

……

240 th Floor: !!!!!

Zhao Wan tossed her phone aside, rubbed herself over her chest, then lunged back at Chi Ying to tickle her again.

“So you are the textbook case of a genius girl who started college at 15 years old!!”

After dinner, Chi Ying received a phone call from their class leader.

The class leader informed her that the training that night has been cancelled and everyone could head home earlier. Before he hung up, he even comforted her some. He told her to not be too upset over what was mentioned in the forum and that if Tan Ke had any other crazy moves to tell him right away.

Everybody in class had always said that their class leader was not a man who knew how to appease a woman. As far as Chi Ying was concerned, their class leader was a very nice guy. Chi Ying thanked him sincerely.

Chi Ying related the message to Zhao Wan and Zhao Wan was about to lose her mind from excitement. There was a movie that she had been wanting to see that was available in the theater that night.

“Ying, you wanna go? You wanna go? You wanna go?” Zhao Wan waved her cellphone. “I can buy the tickets right now.”

Chi Ying didn’t want to disappoint Zhao Wan but she still turned her down nicely. “I’m sorry WanWan, I’m afraid I can’t go tonight.”

“Yeah, I need to hurry home.” Thinking about Chi Cheng brought a sense of warmth to her heard. A bit anxious, her cheeks were a light pink color.

Zhao Wan respected her wish and did not push it further. “It’s fine. I can go by myself. Let’s go, let’s go. I will walk you to the bus stop.”

This was the peak of commute hours and the film academy was located at the center of City C’s bustling area, traffic was in a gridlock.

Zhao Wan and Chi Ying were chitchatting at the bus stop. After a while, their conversation turned into practicing their lines.

“God speed fair Ignativs! whither away?.”

“Call you me fair? that fair again unsay.

Demetrius loves your fair: O happy fair!”*

Zhao Wan laughed so hard she couldn’t stand up straight. “Hahahahaha. That’s the wrong play!”

The bus finally arrived half an hour later.

Zhao Wan said goodbye to Chi Ying and walked back to school by herself.

As soon as she walked inside the campus, Qu YiZhe came running over to her from the Mathematics building. In his hand was two movie ticktes. “’Ocean City’ starts today. You interested?”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Zhao Wan’s eyes beamed. She didn’t give him a stare this time. Smiling, she said to him, “You have been forgiven, Spark.”
