When Li Xiaohui heard Ye Tianxin’s question, she began acting out the scene in question.
The scene featured the empress falling out of favor, while the concubine comes to the palace to put on a display of intimidation to the empress.
Since the empress was the true heroine of this scene, Li Xiaohui was auditioning for the role of the concubine.
“How did you act it out?”
In front of Ye Tianxin, Li Xiaohui acted out the role based on what she remembered.
After Ye Tianxin finished watching, she thought that Li Xiaohui acted out the role of a concubine as if she was an unhinged woman. No wonder the director told her to scram.
“Xiaohui, what were you thinking about after the audition today?”
Li Xiaohui was silent for a while and said, “There were so many beautiful girls. When introducing themselves, they said they can play many musical instruments and they had many specialties. I don’t know how to do any of that. I had nothing to offer.”
“Xiaohui, I’m going to class. How about you accompany me to a class quietly?”
Ye Tianxin took Li Xiaohui to her classroom. Ye Tianxin always sat in the middle position.
Today, when the professor saw that Ye Tianxin brought a girl, he was taken aback.
The learning atmosphere at Capital University was very good. The students spoke out in class enthusiastically. Because everyone studied hard, everyone was very knowledgeable.
They could quote the classics and such to no end.
Li Xiaohui watched Ye Tianxin being called by the teacher. She walked up to the podium with composure and answered the students’ questions with self-assurance.
She was like a star, bright and dazzling.
In Li Xiaohui’s heart, there was an unspeakable sense of melancholy.
She knew that although she and Ye Tianxin both graduated from Jiameng Middle School, they were on two completely different levels.
Ye Tianxin became more outstanding and excellent. Even if she didn’t speak and simply stood there quietly, at least she still looked beautiful.
At first, Li Xiaohui felt envious unbalanced when she saw Ye Tianxin at the Capital Train Station. Now, however, Li Xiaohui was only impressed. She sat in the crowd and watched Ye Tianxin and her classmates chat freely about current affairs, politics, history, fashion, and military affairs.
They were all so knowledgeable. The topics they talked about were things she had no understanding of at all.
She was lofty. She had no choice but to admit defeat.
Li Xiaohui quietly gazed at Ye Tianxin, whose eyes were shining.
When the bell for the end of class rang, the students looked like they still hadn’t learned enough.
While Ye Tianxin was packing her textbooks and notebooks, Li Xiaohui took Ye Tianxin’s hand and whispered, “Tianxin, sit with me for a while.”
“Ok.”
Ye Tianxin silently sat back beside Li Xiaohui.
Li Xiaohui looked at the handwriting on the blackboard. She had a dejected look in her eyes as she asked, “Have you guys always had class like this?”
Ye Tianxin answered, “Yes.”
Li Xiaohui said somewhat sheepishly, “Tianxin, do you know? Just a while back, I was still jealous of you and wondered why you have such good luck. Now, I know that it’s not because of your luck, but because you work harder than me.”
Ye Tianxin was silent.
“Before the college entrance examination, you were so busy but you still got good grades. You never let go of any time. You studied hard, while I didn’t think about my future at all. On the day before the college entrance examination, you also told me that the college entrance examination is very important and told me not to eat spicy skewers, but I still didn’t listen and ended up with stomach pain during the college entrance examination.”
