Chen Xiao was about to burst with joy; he never dreamed that Li Meng would be so supportive, directly giving him a lead male role.
Haha, it seems like my antics paid off.
That’s right, I’m a popular star, so the lead role should rightfully be mine.
Chen Xiao grew increasingly complacent.
Sitting in the nanny van, Chen Xiao returned to the filming site, holding his head high, full of smugness.
Since he was the lead this time, Chen Xiao didn’t act like a diva and cooperated fully.
Doing fight scenes, flying on wires, falling into icy water.
Chen Xiao had never worked so hard, nor had he endured so much hardship in acting.
Chen Xiao held in his frustration: "Everyone calls me a pretty boy, this time I must show you my other side."
After filming, Chen Xiao smugly said to Qin Ming: "Director Qin, how did I do as the lead?"
Qin Ming nodded, "Mm, you’re quite competent as a double."
"What? A double?" Chen Xiao was dumbstruck.
Then he flew into a rage: "I’m a top-tier popular star; why should I be a double for anyone?"
Seeing Chen Xiao’s reaction, Qin Ming found it funny.
Let you act superior, now you’ve met someone more superior, haven’t you?
Suppressing a smile, Qin Ming seriously said, "That’s right, we received notice that you went from Male Lead Two to Male Lead One, but it was as a double. The lead actor is too handsome, and time is tight, so you could only be the double. You should feel honored."
Chen Xiao was about to explode with anger.
He immediately called Li Meng.
"You don’t want to be Mr. Ye’s double? I’ll tell you it’s an honor. If you don’t like it, we’ll blacklist you immediately."
"Sister Meng, I was wrong."
Chen Xiao had no choice but to give in.
At that moment, Ye Chen had returned to Star Academy.
Ye Chen stood on the podium, looking at the many students below.
Now, Ye Chen had established his prestige in Star University.
Ye Chen had become the idol in the hearts of the students.
Looking at the students, Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, "Today, I announce that our school will conduct a monthly exam."
Hearing Ye Chen’s words, all the students were baffled.
"Monthly exam? How can Star University have monthly exams?"
These students had been at the school for more than two months and indeed learned a lot.
Particularly in fields they liked, they had made significant achievements.
But they never thought of having exams at school.
Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, "Everyone has been at Star University for a long time, during this period you have learned a lot at Star University. We have all seen your hard work, I am happy for you. In my heart, you are the best students."
Listening to Ye Chen’s speech, thunderous applause erupted at the scene.
Yet many students still felt uneasy.
Because they didn’t know what kind of exam Ye Chen was talking about.
Ye Chen, however, wasn’t in a rush to speak, instead looking at the students below.
Indeed, the surprises these students brought him were numerous.
From e-sports, to nuclear energy, then mecha, construction, and even culinary studies, excellence bloomed in all fields.
Star University had become the most excellent school in Hua Country.
Many even started seeking favors from Ye Chen to get their children enrolled.
But Star University had refused all transfer requests.
They wanted children with dreams, not those looking for gilding.
Listening to Ye Chen’s speech, students felt a rush of emotions.
That’s right, before coming to Star University, they were a bunch of underachievers, even objects of disdain for many parents and teachers.
But here, they found a stage to realize their dreams.
Now Ye Chen was their home, their pride in their hearts. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝙣𝙚𝙩
Hearing Ye Chen’s affirmation, the students were very excited.
Because they understood that all this was brought to them by Star University and Ye Chen.
After finishing, Ye Chen looked at the students and said with a smile, "This time, our exam content is..."
At this moment, all the students were on edge.
These students were underachievers in high school, so exams were what they feared most.
Moreover, they hadn’t looked at any college textbooks, only focusing on what they liked. If it were a regular exam, they certainly wouldn’t pass.
Ye Chen seemed to see through their anxiety and smiled faintly: "This time, the exam content is to create a report in your familiar field of expertise."
Hearing Ye Chen’s words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out not to be a real exam.
But rather to produce a report in their familiar field of study.
This report presented no issues, allowing them to use their imagination.
For the students, this outcome was the most desirable.
Realizing that with their research, they had made great advancements in their fields.
This exam was too simple for each student.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "I’ll give you three days; I will assess your results here."
Afterwards, Ye Chen announced the dismissal of the meeting.
The students started preparing their reports.
For this exam, no motivation was needed; all students had a strong will.
They wanted to show their best side to Star University.
They wanted to present a report satisfactory to the school, the principal, and the parents.
Everyone began to get busy.
Ye Chen organized this exam to provide an explanation to the parents of these children.
He wanted to show these parents that kids at the school were learning and not just fooling around; they were genuinely working hard.
Meanwhile, students at other schools were busy with postgraduate exams, busy with level four and six exams.
Only Star University’s students were doing what they loved.
In the eyes of students from other schools, Star University students weren’t taking exams, they were simply having fun.
Three days passed quickly, and finally, it was time to submit their reports.
The school playground was bustling because today, Ye Chen had invited all the students’ parents.
This report wasn’t just the students’, it was also Star University’s response to each parent.
Ye Chen wanted these parents to see that their children were growing and making progress at the school.
Only by getting parental recognition of these children’s progress could Star University claim true success.
Parents arrived at the school one after another.
By now, the playground was filled with students and parents.
Ye Chen also came to the podium in front of the school.
The playground’s surroundings were beautifully decorated by the students.
Star University’s students could be said to have the strongest hands-on skills among all the universities.
There was no nervous atmosphere on the square.
Students and parents were chatting and laughing.
Before coming to Star University, many students and parents were practically like enemies.
Seeing students and parents getting along so harmoniously, Ye Chen was very pleased in his heart.
And those parents, seeing the confident smiles on their children’s faces, were also very satisfied.
Before, their children were completely different from now.
Their children had undergone tremendous changes here.
