At the beginning of July, as the steaming hot final exam scores were released, Bo Yan's mom was even more nervous than Yuran, the soon-to-be graduate. She clutched Yuran's admission ticket, reciting the ticket number and standing behind Yuran with clenched hands, waiting for Yuran to enter the ticket number and click on the query button. At that mont, she closed her eyes.
Yuran turned around, saw her and couldn't help but smile. She reached out and squeezed Bo Yan's mom's hand, comforting her, "Godmom, trust , I can do it!"
"You child, of course Godmom believes in you!" Although she said that, she couldn't suppress her own nerves.
The webpage transitioned, and there was a brief lag before the striking exam scores caught Bo Yan's mom's eye, just as reassuring as Yuran had promised—they were excellent.
After clearly seeing the scores, Bo Yan's mom widened her eyes. That was not just good, it was exceptionally good!
Out of a total of 750 points, her child had scored 699 points.
Those scores...
Bo Yan's mom lowered her gaze to look at the girl, whose eyes filled with laughter. She smiled, then suddenly embraced her, "Baby, you did amazing!"
Yuran, resigned, her smile tinged with warmth.
...
Bo Yan was filming abroad—a major director, a huge production, directed by a well-known international director, planned more than a year in advance, a comrcial sci-fi blockbuster.
His co-star was the internationally popular heartthrob, Jason Andrei, in a double male lead movie. The film was currently being shot in secret, unbeknownst to outsiders.
This was also Bo Yan's third starring role in a major foreign-funded production.
In his eight years since debut, Bo Yan wasn't a prolific actor, very detached, yet each of his works was hailed as a classic, even the lowest-grossing art film had pulled in over four billion at the box office, and Bo Yan himself could truly be considered a paradigm of success.
This much was testant to Bo Yan's excellence.
After shooting an intense underwater battle scene and climbing ashore, Xie Cheng handed him his phone, with the word 'Ho' flashing on it. He frowned, thought for two seconds, then picked it up.
Xie Cheng also draped the bathrobe over him. Being close, Xie Cheng heard the joy in Mrs. Bo's voice on the other end, "Xiaoqi, Baby did very well on her exams, and we've decided to celebrate a little for her. When are you coming back?"
Yuran did well on the exams?
Xie Cheng's gaze flickered, feeling unexpectedly shocked, then thought of Mrs. Bo's limitless indulgence towards Yuran and scoffed, distancing himself.
Bo Yan was initially puzzled, then rembered who 'Baby' Mrs. Bo ntioned was. He was montarily stunned by the news and responded instinctively, "Is that all?"
Bo Yan's mom got a bit angry upon hearing her son's indifferent attitude. Her face fell, "What do you an 'Is that all'? Xiaoqi, what are you implying? At least tell what you an?"
"Mom." Bo Yan pinched the bridge of his nose out of frustration, "I'm quite busy, just climbed out of the water. Can we talk about this later? Let go change my clothes first."
"I feel that your Empress Dowager caters to Yuran's every whim. Do you think this ti Yuran is up to her old tricks? To be honest, with her terrible scores, to say she did well, I can hardly imagine that 'well'!" Xie Cheng picked up the conversation after Bo Yan hung up.
But then he carried on, "Putting the score aside for now, if it weren't for this call, I'd have really thought she had changed for the better. Seems like she's evading capture!"
Bo Yan paused in his steps, his gaze indifferent as he looked at Xie Cheng, "You talk too much!"
Xie Cheng caught up to him, and behind Bo Yan, he rambled on, "It's not that I talk too much, I actually thought that before, you don't know..."
