Chapter 87: Sunday

When Lu Yan He looked up to drink water, he happened to glance at the bullet comment section and realized they were arguing.

He scrolled up to see what they were arguing about, and his brows furrowed slightly.

He didn't expect that someone would argue in his livestream room because of Li Zhibai's dad's company.

Seeing the anger getting bigger and bigger, Lu Yan He didn't think much and directly muted the bullet comment section.

No one could post anymore.

Lu Yan He continued to drink water.

The number of viewers suddenly plummeted, from 1727 to 1209 in just a few dozen seconds.

Lu Yan He didn't take it to heart.

He finished drinking water and lowered his head to continue doing questions.

All day Saturday, they stayed in the dormitory and didn't go out.

Lu Yan He kept the livestream on and was reading.

The bullet comment section remained closed.

The number of viewers was maintained at around one thousand.

In the evening, someone in the class group suddenly forwarded a public list. When he clicked on it, it turned out to be the public list for independent enrollment recommendations.

Lu Yan He took a look, and just as he was about to close it, he suddenly saw an unexpected name at the end of the page.

Chu Saiying.

Didn't he... fail to get the independent enrollment recommendation quota by one place?

Someone in the group also raised the same doubt.

Then, someone said: It must be because Xu Zijun gave up her quota.

Only then did everyone remember that this was indeed the case.

Xu Zijun, who was ranked ahead, was originally able to get the independent enrollment recommendation quota, but she gave it up herself.

So was someone deferred?

Lu Yan He frowned, looking at Chu Saiying's name, always feeling that there was something fishy about this matter.

The most critical question was, Chu Saiying had already received an admission from an Ivy League school, why did he still come to compete with everyone for the independent enrollment recommendation quota?

Because Chu Saiying was also in the group, although everyone had some doubts, they didn't say it too bluntly.

"Dinner is ready," Yan Liang said outside the door.

"Coming."

Lu Yan He stopped the livestream and walked out.

There was a lot of Xu Jilai's takeout left over from Li Zhibai's order at noon. Yan Liang cooked some rice himself, heated the dishes, and stir-fried an egg himself.

The three of them sat by the coffee table and ate.

As soon as Yan Liang sat down, he sighed: "Wow, you're really amazing. You actually studied all day without resting. It's too exaggerated."

Lu Yan He said: "I took a nap at noon."

"That's also very exaggerated. No wonder you can improve so much in one go. I suddenly understand," Yan Liang said. "I also started reading today. You don't know, I get a headache as soon as I read, especially math and English, like reading heavenly books, I can't understand the questions at all."

"Then you are too exaggerated. You still need four or five hundred points for your cultural score later," Lu Yan He said. "If you don't hurry up and make up for your cultural lessons, and then get into the Beijing Academy of Arts with your professional score but your cultural score doesn't reach the mark, that would be too regrettable."

"I think so too. I didn't realize my grades were so bad. I clearly understood some before," Yan Liang said. "I will listen to English words with headphones every time I run in the future."

"Keep it up."

The sky outside the window hadn't completely darkened yet.

Large patches of sunset clouds connected, forming a spectacular sunset picture.

Li Zhibai was a bit silent tonight.

His parents would be back tomorrow morning.

The truth of the matter would also be revealed.

Lu Yan He was actually very conflicted deep inside. Because he didn't want Li Zhibai to be affected, even he was a bit afraid to face it, so one can imagine Li Zhibai's mood tonight.

He probably wouldn't sleep well.

"Let's play games," Yan Liang said. "After we finish eating, let's play games. We haven't played for a long time."

"Old Lu still has to read, what are you playing?" Li Zhibai directly rejected this proposal.

Lu Yan He: "Actually, I studied all day and I'm a bit tired. Why don't we play a few rounds? I haven't played for a long time either."

Since Lu Yan He said so, what else could Li Zhibai say?

So, after clearing the dishes, the three of them picked up the controllers and started playing games.

Some people say that games, like novels, are to some extent an escape from the real world.

Lu Yan He naturally had no comment on this view.

However, if for some people, it can help them escape the pain and difficulty of the real world, that's also very good.

At this moment, this is what Lu Yan He thought.

The most agonizing moment is the moment of indecision.

That night, even Lu Yan He suffered from insomnia.

Two things kept popping up in his mind: one moment he was thinking about Li Zhibai's matter, and the next he was thinking about Chu Saiying's matter.

He usually fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow, but that night, he didn't know when he fell asleep.

In short, the next day, when he woke up, Li Zhibai was already gone.

He said in their group of three that his parents came to pick him up, so he went back first.

Lu Yan He and Yan Liang looked at each other on the sofa at seven in the morning.

"When did his parents come to pick him up?"

"Don't know."

"When did he leave?"

"Don't know."

Both of them slept too soundly last night and didn't hear anything.

"Are you still running today?" Lu Yan He asked Yan Liang.

Yan Liang was dazed for two seconds before saying: "Running."

"Then help me buy two steamed buns and an egg."

"Okay."

Lu Yan He had always firmly grasped the principle that "time is squeezed out" and didn't waste a single minute.

But this morning, he was dazed for a while again, which was rare.

He didn't know how Li Zhibai's family affairs would be solved.

But just at this moment, Lu Yan He suddenly received a call.

It was a call from Jiang Yuqian, whom he had just met not long ago.

"Are you free today?" As soon as the call was connected, Jiang Yuqian asked immediately. "If you are free, I'll take you to meet the director."

Lu Yan He was stunned.

He had subconsciously forgotten about this matter because he always felt that it was difficult to come true, not to mention that Zhou Ping'an was obstructing it; how could he let himself see the director smoothly?

Unexpectedly, a call from Jiang Yuqian gave him hope.

"I'm free. I'm in the dormitory. Sister Yuqian, where should I find you?"

"Send me your dormitory address, and I'll have the driver pick you up."

"Okay, thank you!"

Lu Yan He was instantly excited.

Is there really a chance to act? Jiang Yuqian taking him to see the director obviously meant today was the key. As long as the director was willing to let him act, then the matter was settled.

It wouldn't be that even if the director nodded, Zhou Ping'an would still refuse, right?

Then this matter couldn't be explained no matter what.

He changed his clothes and prepared to go out, just in time to run into Yan Liang who had finished running.

"Are you going somewhere?" Yan Liang looked at Lu Yan He, who was dressed neatly, and asked suspiciously.

"Yeah," Lu Yan He nodded. "Jiang Yuqian just called me and said she wanted to take me to meet the director."

Yan Liang immediately remembered this matter.

"Are you going so soon? Keep it up!" Yan Liang immediately cheered him on. "You must win this role!" ===== CHAPTER 88 =====
