"By the way, Nian Nian, I just heard from the board of directors that our school is inviting a senior military professor tomorrow. Apparently, he’s a super handsome guy, and as soon as the news broke, a lot of people rushed to sign up. I even signed you up."
Shen Chengcheng took the hairpin from Mu Shini’s hair, casually pinning her own bangs while eating the pizza Mu Shini had cut for her, and said.
"A military professor? Our school is a film academy, what does that have to do with the military?" Mu Shini took a bite of pizza and said, "Did you hear wrong? And why did you sign me up?"
During holidays, she had to stay with her grandpa for a while, getting immersed in military news every day.
"Aren’t military personnel the hottest thing right now? Plus, the school is focused on improving students’ overall qualities. Most of the people signing up are girls, so I signed you up too." Shen Chengcheng gave Mu Shini a look that said, "Don’t be too grateful."
Mu Shini glared at Shen Chengcheng with resentment!
Is she trying to kill her?
Doesn’t she know that besides dealing with her grandpa, she also has to deal with her husband!
Where would she find the time to take other courses?
"Oh right, Nian Nian, the classes start the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow is just for the military professor to visit our school and decide if he wants to stay and teach," Shen Chengcheng glanced at Bao Tinghao as she spoke, "Tinghao, why aren’t you eating? Don’t you like the food? I bought so many things, there should be something you like."
"A military professor?" Bao Tinghao’s face darkened, his eyelid twitched, feeling like something bad was going to happen.
"Yeah, apparently super handsome," Shen Chengcheng nodded, "Tinghao, if you’re interested, you can come and audit the class too."
"Cheng Cheng, please cancel my registration. I have to study in the library, I need to prepare for my graduate school exams."
"Nian Nian, but he’s really handsome! Super handsome! Just come with me to check him out, I need to see if he’s as handsome as me," Shen Chengcheng insisted, "Besides, we’re only freshmen, you’re already thinking about grad school? Isn’t that a bit much? In our field, we rely on our looks, not talent!"
"Do I look like someone who’s easily swayed by a man’s appearance?" Mu Shini looked at Shen Chengcheng, "You don’t understand. My ambition isn’t just to rely on my looks. I want to be at the top of the entertainment pyramid, to master the rules of the game and hold the power!"
Moreover, her grandpa was already the most handsome man she had ever seen. She was sure there wasn’t a second man in the world more handsome and charming than her grandpa.
The most important thing was that her grandpa had a unique allure that was incredibly appealing.
"What are you talking about? I’ve never heard of that. And don’t you know about the food chain? Even if you’re at the top of the pyramid, there’s still a food chain above you." Shen Chengcheng interrupted Mu Shini, "Last time you came to find me on set, the famous domestic director Zhou Xingxing from the neighboring crew noticed you and wanted you for a role, but you stupidly turned it down! You should know that anyone discovered by him becomes an instant sensation, even becoming one of his leading ladies!"
Mu Shini shrugged, not feeling regretful at all, "My ambition isn’t to be an actress or a star."
"Then why did you apply to the film academy? Are you out of your mind? I’m really baffled. You’re good at studies, beautiful, have a sweet voice, and great memory. If you enter the showbiz, you’d definitely be an all-round star!" Shen Chengcheng clicked her tongue, her tone filled with regret.
