Yun Xiangxiang did not mention the fundamentals. The female protagonist of this big production was understood tacitly to have someone in the back supporting her while she had no acting skills. Of course, the female protagonist of this film didn’t need to do much acting.

However, the tritagonist needed to act well. Furthermore, costume drama attracted fans easily. If it was performed well, it could become the actor’s stepping stone.

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t mean to look down on internet drama. It was a fact that TV drama had a higher chance of being internationally broadcasted, and this internet drama was simply too distasteful. At least, Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t bare to face it directly.

[Yi Yan: Xiangxiang is right. Taking into account whether it is about pay, networking, or in the long run, I also suggest that you accept the big production.]

[Wei Shanshan: Brother Yi, you’re up as well. Okay, I’ll listen to you two and choose the big production.]

[Yi Yan: I have a night scene tonight, I’m still with the crew.]

[Wei Shanshan: Filming is really tiring. Although we made a lot of money, the expenses are greater. All of us are just making ends meet in this position…]

Wei Shanshan took the opportunity to voice her dissatisfaction. Yun Xiangxiang and Yi Yan comforted her, then they chatted away.

[Fang Nanyuan: I haven’t even managed to congratulated Xiangxiang for winning an award, now that “University Dream” has attracted many peoples’ curiosity. What plans do you have next, Xiangxiang? I think I heard that our company boss is preparing to discuss about contracting with you personally.]

[Wei Shanshan: Wow, really? Come to our company, Xiangxiang. you’ll definitely be positioned as the lead actress.]

Wei Shanshan wished from the bottom of her heart for Yun Xiangxiang to come to their company, because she knew clearly that she and Yun Xiangxiang were already not on the same rank. There wouldn’t be any conflict of interest between them. With Yun Xiangxiang around, she would have another person to pour her heart out to.

[Yun Xiangxiang: I’m not in a rush to be contracted, I want to decide on a university first. I just agreed on the “Justice and Selflessness” directed by Lin Jialiang during this summer break.]

[Wei Shanshan : ! ! !]

[Yi Yan: ?]

[Fang Nanyuan: Sister Xiang, please give us a chance to survive.]

The three were shocked by Yun Xiangxiang.

Up till now, the most famous director they had worked with was still Zhou Wei’s work, their debut film.

The director of a TV series couldn’t be compared with the famous film director.

This meant that they were all going downhill. Even though they had many endors.e.m.e.nts, Yun Xiangxiang had already started to interact with a famous director who had won international awards. The gap between them was getting larger and larger.

Yun Xiangxiang also felt like she was blessed by the G.o.ddess of luck. The three of them chatted for a while. Early in the morning, Song Meng screamed, “Xiangxiang, Xiangxiang, I got six hundred and eighty-seven points! The highest score for grade twelve!”

Song Meng had never scored more than six hundred and eighty points before, no wonder she was so excited.

Li Xiangling also announced the good news, “Six hundred and ninety points, higher than I expected.”

“Quick, Xiangxiang! Give me your admission ticket[1]!” Song Meng rushed up to her impatiently.

Yun Xiangxiang told the group that she had to go, then took out the admission ticket from her bag and gave it to Song Meng.

Sitting in front of the computer, Song Meng entered Yun Xiangxiang’s ID number and related information. She took a deep breath before clicking the query.

Her eyes popped out after seeing the data displayed. Li Xiangling was also shocked, “No way!”

Yun Xiangxiang walked to the computer while holding a teacup. It displayed seven hundred and forty-eight points, “Which subject deducted marks?”

Taking a closer look, it was the language subject that was deducted by two points. They didn’t know whether the two points were from text comprehension or essay composition.

“Yun Xiangxiang, are you still a human? Your raw mark is seven hundred and forty-eight! The key is that you had just scanned through a month-worth of test papers for the whole twelfth grade!” Song Meng rushed up and strangled Yun Xiangxiang’s neck.

“I also worked on test papers while I was filming.” Yun Xiangxiang justified herself.

“I wonder if Xiangxiang is the national top-scorer.” Li Xiangling cared more about this.

“Not necessarily. Some people have additional points. The total score in Suzhou is only 480. It also isn’t like there hasn’t been top-scorer with full marks. “Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want to be the national top-scorer. After all, her points now were already enough to negotiate terms with the two top universities.

The highest score recorded for the college entrance exams seemed to be seven hundred and forty-nine. Some even scored the full seven hundred and fifty points, but these people had twenty or thirty additional points.

Immediately after, Yun Xiangxiang’s phone rang. It was Yun Zhibin, “Xiangxiang, the princ.i.p.al told me that you are currently the top-scorer in Suzhou!”

Yun Zhibin’s tone was proud and happy. Currently, there were scores from other regions that had not been counted yet. It seemed that some other regions also had to wait until the twenty-fifth before they could query the results.

“I’ve made my father proud.” Yun Xiangxiang was also very happy. She could face the original owner of the body.

“Are you coming back tomorrow?” Yun Zhibin asked again.

Before Yun Xiangxiang could answer him, she had another incoming call. When she lowered it to look at the screen, the caller ID showed the Imperial University admissions office.

Yun Xiangxiang immediately thought of seeing the news of the two top universities fighting over a candidate, “Dad, I feel that for some time in the future I have to turn off my phone. I’ll register for a new SIM card tomorrow.”

Not only did Yun Xiangxiang receive a phone call, but Yun Zhibin also received it. Looking at the caller ID, Yun Zhibin said, “I’ll need a temporary one too…”

However, even though Yun Xiangxiang could switch off her phone arbitrarily, Yun Zhibin couldn’t, and didn’t dare to. He suppressed his excitement and accepted the call. Even before he finished talking to the first caller, another one called.

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t end up switching off her phone, and she answered politely. The other person first congratulated her, then asked which major she liked. After that, they tried to persuade her into joining their university. Yun Xiangxiang rejected them with an excuse that she couldn’t decide without discussing with her father.

After finally able to relax, she looked at Li Xiangling and Song Meng with their envious faces, “Don’t you two want to sleep?”

“No one loves a little cabbage~”

“Two or three years old, turning yellow in the soil~”

Both of them started to head back to their rooms, taking turns to tease Xiangxiang. Clearly they were both top students, yet when compared to this superhuman, they seemed like small potatoes.

[Wei Shanshan: Xiangxiang, how many points did you score?]

[Yun Xiangxiang: Seven hundred and forty-eight.]

[Fang Nanyuan: …]

[Wei Shanshan: Sorry for intruding you, goodbye.]

[Yi Yan: High-flyer, please give us some reason to continue living after this.]

After talking to a few people, she received countless phone calls again. Yun Xiangxiang finally switched off her phone and fell asleep.

During breakfast the next day, Han Jing asked caringly, “How many points did you get?”

“Seven Hundred and forty-eight.” Yun Xiangxiang answered honestly.

Who knew that Han Jing, who could always keep her cool, froze while holding her gla.s.s. Her face expressing a look questioning what she had just heard.

“Teacher Han, you heard her right. This superhuman got seven hundred and forty-eight points!!”

Song Meng angrily bit her bread, “Me dad asked me how many points I got in the morning. When I told him, he was very happy. Then he asked me how many points she got, and I told him. My dad asked, ‘How could their be such a big gap…’.”

She was upset just by talking about it. If it were anyone else’s child that scored six hundred and eighty-seven points, their parents would be on cloud nine.

But when it came to her, she was tortured to death by Yun Xiangxiang in an instant. Even her father was critical of her, How could I survive beside her?
