After being hammered, he would be thrown on a construction site to move bricks.
After all, Ding Yue was a top graduate from a significantly distinguished university on earth in his past life.
Now that he’s crossed to a parallel world, he simply cannot decline to being a brick-moving, college entrance examination failing young man, could he?
Ding Yue quickly thought of a super exciting solution.
That is—to fake it until he makes it!
Firstly, as a transmigrate, Ding Yue figured he could simply plagiarize some articles and songs in this Parallel World, becoming a copyright infringer, and he would surely become established, right?
When the time comes and he’s earned the money, he can then confess to his parents about his College Entrance Examination failure, and naturally, his parents wouldn’t have anything to say anymore.
After all, in this day and age, being able to earn money is the "Correct Way".
The silver "New Year’s Money" is the symbol of strength!
People always say that studying will change one’s destiny, but in fact, it is all about gaining knowledge from studying, then using the knowledge to make money, which in turn changes one’s fate.
So Ding Yue figured, why not deceive his parents for now and let them think that he really got into a bachelor’s degree university?
Then, during the four years of university life, it should be sufficient for Ding Yue to become established as a copyright infringer, right?
With this idea in mind.
Ding Yue just happened to be discussing this with his schoolmates Huang Youjie and Xu Bin during a BBQ session, and all three agreed right away.
In agreement on their PY (laying low deceit) plan!
Because both Huang Youjie and Xu Bin had dismal College Entrance Examination results this year, just like Ding Yue.
However, it’s not so easy to deceive parents about failing the college entrance examination.
You have to have an admission notice, right?
You can photoshop a college entrance examination score screenshot, but you can’t be without an admission notice, so Ding Yue had Huang Youjie find someone to make three fake admission notices.
Then, parents need to know what university you got admitted to, right?
Mist City has dozens of universities and colleges of all sizes, and University Town has even more. The name "Mist City Arts and Science University" sounds legit and has that vibe.
But just in case the parents look up about this non-existent university on the internet.
Ding Yue had Bin and his master be in charge of building the official website of Mist City Arts and Science University, as well as making some Q&A information on Zhihu and Qian Du about the school, and of course on Qian Du Qian Ke.
"Ding Yue, now that we have the admission notices, and the official school website is being built, what if my parents want to send me to the school for registration when the school starts?"
Huang Youjie drank the remaining milk tea in one go and asked with concern.
"Well...Don’t panic, it’s not a big problem."
Ding Yue said confidently.
Then he activated a thought in his mind and a virtual panel appeared in front of him -
"[System] Activation Process: 40%..."
"1. Admission Notice (Completed)."
"2. Establishment of School Official Website (In Progress)."
"3. Find School Establishment Location (Uncompleted)."
"4. School Registration (Uncompleted)."
Another reason why Ding Yue insisted on performing the charade of failing the college entrance examination was to see what kind of hacker abilities he would activate after completing these four steps.
In the city in August, the sizzling heat was unbearable, radiating high temperatures everywhere.
Outside the Happy Garden Community, a young man about 1.78 meters tall wearing T-shirt and slippers walked into the Coco Milk Tea Shop.
"What do you want to drink?"
"A cup of pearl milk tea please." Ding Yue smoothly sat opposite a slim man wearing glasses and shouted at the shop assistant girl, "Miss, no pearls and no tea, please."
The girl turned red instantly when she heard this.
"Ding Yue, you should have some shame, don’t think people wouldn’t go over to beat you just because you are good-looking."
Glasses-wearing Huang Youjie rolled his eyes and said, then took a sip of his favorite "fresh milk purple potato mash".
If only it wasn’t fresh and didn’t have the potato mash.
Huang Youjie was Ding Yue’s high school classmate. The two have met here today to discuss very important issues!
Ding Yue suddenly asked seriously: "Did you bring the stuff?"
"I brought it, where’s the money?"
"It’s ready, I cheated... borrowed it all from my sister’s New Year’s money." Ding Yue then took out a card from Xia Country Commercial Bank from his pocket.
Ding Yue answered, holding up his hand to represent the number.
The money in the bank card comes from years of New Year’s money saved by his younger sister Ding Xiaoyou, as well as some pocket money she earned as an UP host on Bilibili.
"I sold all my miniatures on Idle Fish, as well as my little skirts, thigh-high socks, wigs, cosmetics... I pooled all my belongings and it only comes to six thousand five hundred yuan."
Huang Youjie painly wiped the corner of his eye.
Then he also pulled out a bankcard from Xia Country Construction Bank, which contained all his savings.
"Ding Yue, now we have our admission letters, the school official website is under construction. But what if my parents want to take me to school for registration when school starts?"
Huang Youjie drank the rest of his milk tea in one gulp, and then asked with concern.
"Well... Don’t panic, it won’t be a big deal."
Ding Yue confidently said.
Then, Ding Yue slightly moved his mind, and a virtual panel appeared before his eyes—
"[System] Activation progress: 40%..."
1. Admission letter (completed).
2. Establishment of official school website (in progress).
3. Find a school site (not completed).
4. School registration (not completed).
The reason why Ding Yue insisted on pretending the College Entrance Examination failure is real is to see what kind of advantage he will gain after he completes these four steps.
The city in August was sweltering, with heatwaves perpetually rolling through.
Outside the Happy Garden Community, a handsome young man dressed in a short-sleeved T-shirt and slippers walked into the Coco Milk Tea Shop, he is around 1.78 meters tall.
"What would you like to drink?"
"A cup of pearl milk tea, please." Ding Yue sat down opposite a skinny man in glasses with ease, then shouted at the waitress, "Miss, I want it without pearls and without tea."
At his words, the waitress’s face instantly turned red.
"Ding Yue, have some shame! Don’t think that no one will come to beat you just because you’re handsome!"
The glasses-wearing man Huang Youjie rolled his eyes and said, then sipped his favourite drink, fresh milk purple potato mash.
If only it wasn’t fresh and didn’t have potato mash.
Huang Youjie was Ding Yue’s high school classmate. The two of them met here today to discuss extremely important matters!
"Let’s cut the crap."
Ding Yue asked seriously, "Did you bring the stuff?"
"I’ve brought it. Where’s the money?"
"I got it ready. I fooled... I mean, I borrowed all my sister’s New Year’s money." As he talked, Ding Yue pulled out a bankcard from Xia Country Commercial Bank from his pocket.
Ding Yue answered, holding up his hand to represent the number.
The money in the bank card comes from years of New Year’s money saved by his younger sister Ding Xiaoyou, as well as some pocket money she earned as an UP host on Bilibili.
