Chapter 15 – The End of College Entrance Examination

In Xu Lang’s previous life, this video clip was only released after Xia Teng died.

By no means there suddenly appeared a righteous person this time around; the person shared the video simply because Xu Lang gave them some money.

When the video came out, everyone was left speechless, especially Mo Yan’s fans.

If Mo Yan’s public image was bold and vigorous, the reaction probably wouldn’t be too big. However, Mo Yan’s public image had always been a gentle and considerate goddess.

Now, looking at the woman in the video with her nose up in the air while sporting such a sinister face, the fans were probably the ones who were most disappointed.

The new fans had retreated.

On the other side, the passers-by that had calmed down and new passers-by who just joined in began to feel sorry for Xia Teng.

After all, Xia Teng was just a girl who was still in high school.

In such a particularly sensitive period before the college entrance examination, Mo Yan’s fans jinxed her to fail the college entrance examination here and there.

Looking at how she deleted her Weibo posts one by one—she ought to be very sad!

She also didn’t give any explanation—she must have known that giving explanation will only make the scolding even more cruel.

And thus, she could only erase her Weibo posts as a compromise.

Passers-by began to wish Xia Teng a successful college entrance examination, and of course many people didn’t forget to scold Mo Yan.

Xu Lang looked at the changes on the Internet, and then looked at Xia Teng who was quietly doing the problems.

Mo Yan had quickly posted an apology on Weibo, and this could be considered as the end of the matter.

Undoubtedly, the ones who profited the most from this incident was Xia Teng and the movie. Many people went to the movie theater to watch this movie where the female lead was jealous of the female-number-three’s acting skills.

After watching it, first they would go to Mo Yan’s Weibo to properly satirize her for a bit, and then they would send a post to recommend the movie while applauding Xia Teng’s performance, and finally they would also post their well wishes on Weibo for Xia Teng to have a smooth exam.

She is only eighteen years old ah, she seems to be born to act.

This was the most common commentary about Xia Teng on Weibo.

Xu Lang returned the phone to Xia Teng and told Xia Teng, “Look at the number one hot search on Weibo.”

Xia Teng looked at the hot searches and saw that the first position was ‘Wishing Xia Teng a successful exam’.

After she tapped on the search, she saw that it was full of praises and blessings for her, and some people even shared all kinds of important points of the exam.

Xia Teng blinked her eyes. “You bought me a hot search?”

“…” Xu Lang told Xia Teng about what happened according to the development of the matter.

Hearing about this, Xia Teng was taken aback for a while before finally concluding, “You are really amazing!”

“You should send a Weibo post personally and tell them you’re fine.”

“Okay!” Xia Teng obediently started writing a post.

[ Thank you everyone for your blessings, I’m fine. I’ll continue to update Weibo after the college entrance examination is over. ]

The comments were all [ Gajima, I want to look at the daily life of a beautiful girl! ]

[*Gajima (pronounced g(k)ah-jee-mah): Korean word for don’t leave/don’t go. But in Chinese literal meaning it’s card machine (ka ji) + modal particle (ma).]

[ Should I go change my name to Xia Teng and post something on Weibo today? ]

[ It’s all Auntie Mo’s fault! ]

…………

Xia Teng glanced at it for a moment, put the phone down, and continued to re-check her work.

She wanted to enter the same school as Xu Lang.

When school was over yesterday, the prettiest girl from the class-next-door went looking for Xu Lang to confess.

Xia Teng specially went to check the grades of this class flower, and this girl definitely couldn’t pass the exam, not to mention going to the same school as Xu Lang.

Then she didn’t need to care!

At night, Xu Lang woke up in the middle of the night and found that Xia Teng was still studying.

It was already past one in the morning.

Xu Lang frowned. “Xia Teng?”

Xia Teng turned her head, brimming with energy. “Yup yup.”

“Go to sleep quickly.” Xu Lang wondered if the incident on Weibo had made her upset today, so he walked to the front of the desk. “Do not pay attention to what those people say.”

Xia Teng looked over doubtfully. “Which those people?”

What lingered in her mind was that class flower, wearing a white dress, confessing to Xu Lang with a blushing face. What happened in Weibo was no longer in her brain.

Xu Lang was a little surprised that it wasn’t about the matter on the Internet.

“Then you just couldn’t sleep and want to study?”

“Yeah, I want to go to the same school as you,” Xia Teng said.

Xu Lang was a little surprised. “Your current grades are good enough. By the time we have college entrance examination, as long as you perform well, you will be fine. You don’t need to stay up late like this.”

Xia Teng was silent for a while, then asked softly, “What do you think of Li Feiya?”

She also didn’t know why she inexplicably asked this question, obviously just now the two were discussing about studying and the college entrance examination.

But she just couldn’t hold back. Xia Teng’s gaze were tightly locked on Xu Lang’s face. She was afraid that something like joy and so on would appear there.

Just when she felt that her heart had risen to her throat, she saw the other person frowning. “Who is this?”

Xia Teng immediately felt that she was enveloped in joy!

After coughing twice, she controlled her emotions. “No one, I was just asking randomly.”

Then she obediently returned to her bedroom to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Xia Teng was so excited that she couldn’t sleep.

That’s good, Xu Lang doesn’t have any impression about that girl at all.

Xia Teng’s ability to withstand stress was very good. She slept well and ate well in the few days before the exam.

Her three mock exams was over six hundred points, she was extremely close to her goal.

[*Looks like the maximum score is 750. More info about the subjects that can be taken here: Wikipedia link]

Because the exam location was at their own school, she didn’t feel much difference compared to the usual school exam.

After the exam, her spirit felt refreshed and her energy was restored!

As soon as Xia Teng finished taking the exam, she immediately posted a Weibo: [ Hahaha! I, Hu Hansan, am back! ]

[*Hu Hansan is the landlord from the movie Sparkling Red Star. This is his classic line.]

At this time, she also received a private message.

[ Hello, Xia Teng, I’m Lin Ce, director in the Reunion Film and TV Company. We have a project coming up, and there is a female lead role that suits you very well. So I want to see if you are interested? ]

[ <picture> ]

[ <picture> ]

The picture was the outline of the movie script.

Xia Teng felt that this director’s name sounded a bit familiar, and when she clicked on the profile, she found that he had more fans than herself.

The director just released a big box-office movie that also received high rating.

Xia Teng didn’t read the script at all, meaning, she was finally done with the college entrance exam—start the work! Make more money!

She promised the director that she would go to the audition in person, and only then she started to look at the movie outline.

This was a tear-jerking revenge movie.

It was about the greatness of a mother’s love.

That’s right, Xia Teng wouldn’t be performing as the daughter, the director wanted her to play the mother’s role.

Xia Teng: “…” What kind of misunderstanding do you have about my age?

The name of the movie was《Mama》.

After a single mother got the news that her daughter committed suicide due to depression at school, she stubbornly believed that it was impossible for her daughter to commit suicide. She firmly believed that her daughter was murdered, and thus she must find out the truth of the matter.

Whether it was the autopsy report or the police and other people’s statements, they all pointed to the fact that it was certainly a case of suicide.

The single mother quitted her job to collect any traces and tracks of the clues.

Xia Teng saw the end in one breath, and the truth was… very unexpected!

This mother’s logic simply trounced the police, and the final revenge was dark and delightful!

Forget about the age! Pick it up! She must play this role!

Translator’s Corner:

Speaking of gajima vs card reader machine, does your language have any terms that uses a different language as a slang or vice-versa?
For example in my mother tongue, we have the slang ‘miss-queen’, which is used to say poor people (usually self mocking) because miss-queen sounds like miskin which means poor.
I can’t seem to recall anything in English though~

Anyway, if you are using AMP or reading mode to read this, you may notice that the translator note looks confusing and there’s a bunch of ‘erynalu’ every once in a while. All I can say is try to use the normal mode for better experience~
