Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There were professionals in every field. The fans only saw the quantity and the value of the journal. They knew that Xia Wanyuan was very amazing, but no one knew exactly how amazing she was.
When everyone in the academic world saw this long list, they specially downloaded all of Xia Wanyuan’s papers and studied them.
They even watched the video of Xia Wanyuan’s defense once. Then, everyone was collectively stunned.
“My mentor told me that after watching Xia Wanyuan’s defense video, he doesn’t want to teach anymore. He feels that after so many years of research, he’s inferior to a young lady in her twenties. He’s autistic.”
“Plus one, our mentor has just given us a mission in the group. He wants all of us to study Xia Wanyuan’s thesis and learn her train of thought. I just want to say that I can’t do it! So what if we learn her train of thought? I’m not as talented as Xia Wanyuan.”
[I just want to ask, is that book bag awkward now? Hahahaha, do you think it’s amazing that you’ve published two or three papers in the four journals?]
[No, he’s thick-skinned. He’s still quibbling, saying that Xia Wanyuan not only invited him, but also many others.]
The netizens returned to Weibo and took a look. As expected, he still did not admit that he was spreading rumors and insisted thIf you see this message this chapter is being messed up, you don’t need to report it, just come back in 10 minutes to read the correct chapter, sorry for the inconvenience
At that moment, he was on the phone while standing in front of the window. He spotted her running in and gave her not more than a side glance. He quickly moved his gaze towards the outside of the window and continued his serious conversation on the phone. 4
He acted as if picking her up from prison was nothing more than a matter of convenience.
Zhong Nuannuan finally felt relief in her heart when she once again saw this man, who was as tall as a pine tree and as noble as the gods. 9
There was a sudden pain in her heart that flooded into her eyes. If she had not done all she could to keep them under control, her tears would have fallen again.
“Nuannuan, how are you doing? You’ve been in prison for a month. Did anyone bully you? Are you hurt anywhere? Tell mum and I’ll make sure to settle everything for you!” 1
“Nuannuan is my daughter. There is no way that the daughter of Zhong Kuijun would be so weak. Just look at Nuannuan’s healthy face, she is in the pink of health. One look at her and anyone can see how well she is doing! Hahahaha… My girl, the Zhou family has withdrawn their suit against you. You have been pronounced not guilty for murder. Your dad is here to take you out of prison. Are you feeling happy?” 4
Zhong Nuannuan’s sight was suddenly blocked as her father, Zhong Kuijun and mother, Jiang Shuwan, stood in front of her. One of them took her left hand and the other held her right. They were concerned over her as they kept asking about her wellbeing.
In the middle of the room, her older sister, Zhong Qianqian, whom they shared the same father but had different mothers, stood not far from where Chi Yang was. Her body was a little slighted and from where Zhong Nuannuan was standing, it looked as if they were standing side by side. 5ing half of his hair and wanted to cry. “I don’t think I can protect you.”
In the manor, Jun Shiling sat beside Xia Wanyuan and handed her a jewelry box from behind. “They all have gifts. Our protagonist has to have gifts too.”
Xia Wanyuan smiled and took it. “Thank you, CEO Jun.”
“You’re welcome. Move back to the master bedroom to sleep today.” Jun Shiling took out the necklace from the box and put it on Xia Wanyuan. “It looks good.”
“Didn’t I tell you? I have to accompany An Rao during this period of time. Sleep by yourself.” Xia Wanyuan placed her foot on Jun Shiling’s lap, and Jun Shiling wrapped her in his arms with his clothes.
]”You don’t have to accompany An Rao anymore.” Jun Shiling hooked Xia Wanyuan’s ankle, causing her to smile.
Xia Wanyuan suppressed her laughter and asked, “What do you mean? Bo Xiao can come back?”
“Kiss me and I’ll tell you.”
“Forget it if you don’t want to say it.” Xia Wanyuan had already gotten the answer from Jun Shiling’s expression.
——
In the apartment, An Rao was packing her things. Her manager was helping her.
“There’s no need to bring this. Yuan Yuan has already prepared it for me.” An Rao picked out the clothes in the wardrobe. “You can take this sweater over. This sweater is especially soft and very warm.”
Seeing that An Rao was packing seriously, the manager put down the clothes in his hand. “Look for it first. I’ll cook some noodles for you.”
“Okay.” An Rao did not even turn around and rummaged through the wardrobe.
The manager pushed open the bedroom door and had just taken two steps when he heard a knock on the door. “Eh? Didn’t An Rao just place the order yesterday? Why are you here so quickly?”
The manager nagged as he walked out. However, when she opened the door, she was stunned.
The man standing outside the door was solemn with a familiar smile on his lips. Wasn’t that Bo Xiao?!
“Bo…” The manager exclaimed, her face filled with excitement and joy. Bo Xiao placed his index finger on his lips and stopped her.
“Where’s An Rao?” Bo Xiao smiled.
“She’s packing in the bedroom. Go in quickly. Coincidentally, I’m going out,” the manager said as she picked up her bag and walked out. She even pushed Bo Xiao.
An Rao and Bo Xiao had not seen each other for so long, so she would not be a third wheel here.
The door closed. Bo Xiao changed his shoes, slowed down, and walked into the bedroom.
The entire room was still the same as before he left. Even the position of the doll had not changed much. Beside the wardrobe, An Rao was wearing a white sweater. Her stomach was bulging and she was seriously choosing the coat in the cabinet.
“This red one seems a little small. This white one is good.” Hearing footsteps, An Rao thought it was her manager and nagged her manager to help her decide.
Bo Xiao stood at the door and stared at An Rao not far away without saying a word.
An Rao seemed to have gained a little weight and there was a little meat on her face, but she was still bright and beautiful. She did not put on makeup today, and her eyelashes were still curled and curled. She blinked, making Bo Xiao’s heart ache.
“Didn’t you want to cook noodles for me? I want two eggs. Me and the baby.” An Rao took out a white coat and turned around. She stopped mid-sentence.
To Bo Xiao’s surprise, An Rao did not cry or make a fuss. Instead, she closed her eyes and looked a little annoyed. “How annoying. Why am I seeing Bo Xiao again? Am I dreaming?”
As An Rao spoke, she reached out and prepared to pinch her face. After all, in the past, she had always let herself wake up like this.
However, just as she placed her hand on her face, someone grabbed her wrist. Bo Xiao had walked up to her at some point.
An Rao opened her eyes. The temperature of Bo Xiao’s palm was on her wrist. An Rao’s eyes widened. “You.”
Bo Xiao smiled and scolded An Rao. “Stupid, so stupid.” However, his eyes were red.
An Rao was still not sure. She pounced into Bo Xiao’s arms, and Bo Xiao’s unique smell surrounded her. Bo Xiao also hugged An Rao tightly.
Hearing Bo Xiao’s strong heartbeat, An Rao was certain that Bo Xiao was really back.
She finally dared to cry. She cried very sadly in Bo Xiao’s arms.
Bo Xiao kissed her hair from the top of her head to her lips, ignoring the tears on her face.
An Rao sobbed. “You’re so annoying. I can’t breathe.”
Bo Xiao stopped and knocked An Rao’s head. “Idiot.”
“How did you come back? Did you escape from prison?” An Rao, who had just watched an escape movie last night, was filled with strange thoughts.
Bo Xiao really wanted to pry open An Rao’s head and see what was inside. “Shut up. Have you eaten?”
“No.” An Rao shook her head.
“I’ll get you something to eat.” Bo Xiao glanced at An Rao’s stomach. “You can starve, but you can’t starve my son.”
“Hmph!” An Rao was angered by Bo Xiao again.
Bo Xiao smiled and pulled her into his arms. “Good girl, I was joking. Wait for me here.”
“No, I want to go with you.” An Rao only wanted to be a clingy little tail and did not want to go anywhere.
“Let’s go.” Bo Xiao moved a stool for An Rao and let her sit in the kitchen while he cooked.
“Bo Xiao, you’re back. Will you still leave?” An Rao was most concerned about this question.
“I can accompany you for a while.” Bo Xiao boiled the water and walked to An Rao. He wiped her face with a wet towel. “You’re not allowed to cry. I’m already back. Smile for Hubby.”
An Rao glared at Bo Xiao, but she still wiped her tears and smiled at him, like a little wife who had been captured by bandits.
“Silly.” A smile appeared in Bo Xiao’s eyes. He lowered his head and covered An Rao’s lips.
“Hey, my noodles,” An Rao said, but her body did not move. She even leaned towards Bo Xiao.
Bo Xiao stroked An Rao’s head. “The noodles are not cooked yet. I’ll reward you with a kiss first.”
An Rao wanted to say something but was swallowed by Bo Xiao.
Since Bo Xiao was back, An Rao naturally stayed in the apartment.
In the manor, Xia Wanyuan received An Rao’s message and glanced at Jun Shiling. “CEO Jun, thank you.”
Jun Shiling glanced at her. “Try saying thank you to me again?”
Xia Wanyuan laughed. “When are you bringing Xiao Bao back?”
Xiao Bao had been staying at Old Master’s house for almost a week. He had probably missed home long ago.
“Tomorrow.” Jun Shiling typed the last few words on the computer. “Can you go back to the master bedroom tonight? An Rao has gone back.”
“Got it.” An Rao could be at ease now that Bo Xiao was back. Xia Wanyuan’s mood was much better, and she was even a little restless.
Anyway, Xiao Bao was not back today. Xia Wanyuan hooked Jun Shiling with her foot.
Jun Shiling grabbed her ankle. “Do you want it?”
“…” Xia Wanyuan kicked Jun Shiling in this position. “Can you think of anything else? I want to go out for a walk, okay?”
Jun Shiling wanted to say that it was not good. He wanted to discuss the harmony of life with Xia Wanyuan at home.
However, when both Xia Wanyuan and he had thoughts, Xia Wanyuan would definitely have the final say.
“Okay,” Jun Shiling said as he took a pair of socks from the side and helped Xia Wanyuan put them on. He helped her put on her hat and scarf, then pulled her out.
Jun Shiling drove while Xia Wanyuan sat in the front passenger seat. The two of them left the manor just like that.
By the time the two of them finished supper on the small boat in Houhai and saw the night view, it was almost midnight.
The night was very cold. At this time, no one was still walking outside. Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan walked together on the street that they had not stepped on in the day.
“I’ve chosen for so long, but I still haven’t chosen any interesting sci-fi script.” Xia Wanyuan was not wearing high heels at night. She held Jun Shiling’s arm and walked and jumped. Her shadow looked even more agile under the street lamp.
“I’ll get Lin Jing to release an announcement tomorrow and gather a copy online.”
“Will I do a bad job?” After all, Xia Wanyuan had never come into contact with sci-fi movies and rarely watched them.
“Don’t worry. If you don’t do well, I’ll support your box office alone and get the Internet Water Army to raise your score. Is a full score enough?”
Xia Wanyuan patted Jun Shiling. “You’re teasing me again.”
A smile appeared in Jun Shiling’s eyes. “Are you stupid? You’ll definitely do well. I believe you.”
“Okay.” Although Jun Shiling was only encouraging her, Xia Wanyuan inexplicably felt a force supporting her.
The two of them walked under a bridge. In the quiet night, there was suddenly a cry.
“Crazy, get lost quickly. Let me tell you, I don’t have a daughter like you.” Not far away, a middle-aged woman was pushing a young lady out.
“Mom, I was wrong. Don’t abandon me.” The little girl looked thin and weak, like she was fourteen or fifteen years old. She hugged the middle-aged woman’s leg with a face full of tears.
“Get lost. Is it easy for me to raise you and your brother? What’s wrong with letting you wash their feet? Do you think you’re the daughter of a rich family?! Let me ask you something. Are you going to wash Boss Liu’s feet and massage him?” The middle-aged woman looked at her daughter with disdain. There was no warmth in her eyes.
“I’m not going.” The young lady bit her lower lip stubbornly. She was not stupid. What foot washing massage? She was clearly selling me for five thousand yuan.
“Okay, then die outside and never come back.” The middle-aged woman threw her school bag at the little girl and left without looking back.
The papers in the school bag scattered on the ground, and some floated to Xia Wanyuan’s feet with the cold wind.
Xia Wanyuan lowered her head to pick them up, then walked forward and handed them to the little girl. “These are yours.”
The little girl’s eyes were red and she looked thin and pitiful. She retracted her gaze from her mother, who was already far away. She was clearly still very young, but it inexplicably made one feel that there were many things in her heart.
“Thank you, Sister.” The young lady reached out to take the paper.
The lights here were brighter. Xia Wanyuan looked down and saw the little girl’s frozen and swollen hands. Her hands could no longer be seen as they were filled with frostbite.
“If you don’t have a place to stay tonight, I’ll help you find a hotel.” Seeing the scene just now, anyone could tell that this young lady had been abandoned by her biological mother.
“No, thank you.” The young lady’s voice was soft. “I’ll find a place myself.”
Xia Wanyuan wanted to say something, but her gaze suddenly glanced at the manuscript in her hand. The lights had been dim just now, so she had not seen what was on it. Now that she had casually glanced at it, it was actually a fragment similar to science fiction.
Furthermore, this small scene aroused her interest in reading.
Xia Wanyuan was a little surprised. “You wrote this?”
The young lady nodded. She did not have any entertainment activities. Since she was young, her favorite thing was to read all sorts of strange books. She secretly stood at the side and watched all sorts of movies while working in the cinema.
Over time, some images appeared in his mind, and she wanted to write them down.
Xia Wanyuan flipped a few more pages, her eyes shining.
The little girl looked weak and young, but the things she wrote were unrestrained.
She seemed to understand why she had not met a suitable script for so many days.
Science fiction was originally something that was unconstrained and imagined endlessly. After the world and society changed, there would always be some fixed patterns that would be limited by various boxes.
However, children were different. They naturally had strange fantasies about the world. Their imaginations were endless, and it was easy to have all sorts of strange but interesting settings.
Xia Wanyuan smiled and tidied up the manuscript. “Young lady, I’ll find a place for you to live. I’m not a bad person. Do you believe me?”
The little girl looked at Xia Wanyuan’s clear eyes in a daze and nodded subconsciously.
“Alright, let’s go.”
Xia Wanyuan stood up and placed the little girl in a hotel under the Jun Corporation.
It was not until one in the morning that Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling returned to the manor.
——
The next day, Xia Wanyuan took advantage of the break in filming to flip through the little girl’s manuscript.
She had never received specific training, so her writing appeared very young, but she had quite a number of strange thoughts and ideas. The more Xia Wanyuan looked at it, the more interesting she felt.
“Wanyuan, why are you here? Congratulations on winning the Best Actress nomination.” A colleague from the production team passed by and congratulated Xia Wanyuan.
“What best actress?” Xia Wanyuan withdrew from the sci-fi world that the young lady had imagined and did not understand what her colleague meant.
“Don’t you know? You’ve been nominated for the Best Actress Award, but Su Yueran seems to be competing with you at the same time. I don’t know who will win in the end, but congratulations. This nomination itself is very valuable,” the colleague explained to Xia Wanyuan.
At the same time, the news of Su Yueran and Xia Wanyuan being nominated at the same time was widely spread by the media.
Ever since Director Charon’s audition, Su Yueran and Xia Wanyuan’s relationship had become very awkward.
They were both female celebrities with extraordinary backgrounds and had a good reputation in the industry. In fact, their image and temperament were very similar.
Everyone knew that Su Yueran and Xia Wanyuan had gone to the audition together, but in the end, Su Yueran was chosen to play the role of Director Carlon’s latest sci-fi movie. Although she was only a supporting actress, it was enough to make her famous internationally. In comparison, Xia Wanyuan was a little inferior.
This time, the two of them were nominated as Best Actors at the same time. Everyone could not help but compare the two of them.
Who would be the Best Actress this time?
