Shi Yuan had long been thinking about going to major colleges and universities to select good candidates, so as soon as school started, she started searching.
The first place she went to was the film school in Jiangwu. She did meet a lot of good-looking students, but most of them didn't have any characteristics, which didn't suit her.
Shi Yuan spent a week visiting five colleges and universities, and selected three students with more stunning looks.
It turned out that one was a sentimental and well-known scumbag in the school, one was a squeamish young lady who refused to endure hardship, and the third one was even more outrageous, he wanted to chase Shi Yuan.
To sum up, it was all in vain. Shi Yuan reflected on it and felt that he was a little too anxious and needed to think about it in the long term.
Fang Yuechuan came to pick up Shi Yuan from get off work in the evening. When he heard her complaining, he couldn't help laughing and said: "It's normal. People with a bit of good looks must be popular, especially in the student days. There are many things to do and you can find them." The target group itself is at high risk, and it is indeed easy to fall into trouble.”
Shi Yuan pinched his eyebrows and said, "If you don't have any moral bottom line, you will eventually collapse as an artist."
"At least you found out in advance," Fang Yuechuan said, "Let's have dinner outside today."
Shi Yuan: "Yeah."
Fang Yuechuan: "What to eat?"
Shi Yuan: "Beggars chicken?"
Fang Yuechuan: "Okay."
*
This Beggar's Chicken is still as popular as usual. There are so many customers in the store that it's hard to wait for a table.
As soon as the two sat down, Fang Yuechuan called. He glanced at his phone and said to Shi Yuan, "You order first, and I'll answer the phone."
Shi Yuan nodded: "Okay."
When Fang Yuechuan came back, Shi Yuan had just finished ordering, handed over the menu and said, "See if you want to add anything more."
Fang Yuechuan glanced briefly and said to the waiter: "Let's take these first."
Waiter: "Okay."
After the waiter left, Shi Yuan asked, "Are you busy with something?"
Fang Yuechuan scalded her cup with hot water and said, "No, the call just now was from my mother. She wanted me to go home for dinner tomorrow."
Shi Yuan: "Oh."
Fang Yuechuan: "So I won't be able to pick you up from get off work tomorrow afternoon. You must also remember to eat dinner."
Shi Yuan: "Okay."

Fang Yuechuan didn't tell Shi Yuan about the quarrel between him and Fang Yan. He never returned home once since the New Year's Day.
Ren Baiman suddenly called and asked him to go home for dinner. He obviously wanted to ease the relationship between father and son.
Both father and son were very stubborn, and they would never give in when they quarreled. Ren Baiman would adjust the situation, and then they would go down the stairs. This had been the case since childhood.
Fang Yuechuan naturally knew what Ren Baiman meant, so he agreed to go back for dinner, but things were a little different from what he thought. There were guests at home today.
Ren Baiman did not say in advance that there would be outsiders, so Fang Yuechuan was very surprised when he returned home and saw the woman sitting in the living room.
This woman had pretty features and gentle black hair. There was a sense of déjà vu between her eyebrows, but Fang Yuechuan couldn't remember it.
Fang Yan and Ren Baiman were both sitting on the sofa talking to this strange woman. The atmosphere was quite harmonious, but it made his biological son look like an outsider.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Ren Baiman turned around and saw Fang Yuechuan. He stood up and said with a smile, "You're back?"
Fang Yuechuan looked at the three people in the living room and stood at the door without saying a word.
Fang Yan: "Why are you standing at the door? Why don't you come over and say hello?"
Fang Yuechuan still didn't speak. He looked at Ren Baiman coldly, feeling that he would turn around and go out in the next second.
Ren Baiman naturally guessed what Fang Yuechuan was thinking at the moment. He stepped forward and took his arm, leading him to the living room and saying, "This is your Uncle Li's daughter Chuyao. You have met her before, don't you remember?"
Fang Yuechuan looked at Ren Baiman and asked, "Are you on dad's side this time too?"
Ren Baiman's eyes moved slightly, and he said with some reluctance: "Xiaochuan, we will not harm you."
Li Chuyao stood up and walked to Fang Yuechuan. She smiled gently and said, "Chuan, long time no see."
Fang Yuechuan: "..."
*
From the moment he saw Li Chuyao, Fang Yuechuan knew what he would face tonight. Leaving without turning around was already the greatest honor he had given Ren Baiman.
At the dinner table, the other three chatted warmly. Only Fang Yuechuan lowered his head to cook and sent messages to Shi Yuan from time to time.
When Fang Yan saw this, he frowned and scolded: "It's delicious when you eat. Do you think you are still a child? This is not right."
"I don't talk when I eat or sleep," Fang Yuechuan said carelessly, "I'm not eating, and I'm not talking all the time."
Fang Yan: "You!"
Li Chuyao: "Uncle Fang, don't be angry. My family doesn't follow these rules when eating."
Fang Yuechuan raised his eyes and glanced at Li Chuyao. His only impression of Li Chuyao was that she was in elementary school, a slug who only knew how to follow behind him. She was really a transformed girl.
Ren Baiman: "Chu Yao is still sensible."
"...Ha." Fang Yuechuan really regretted it. He shouldn't have come back.
After finally finishing the meal, Fang Yuechuan was about to leave. As soon as he turned around, he was stopped by Ren Baiman: "Xiaochuan, it's too late. Please drive Chuyao off."
Fang Yuechuan put on his coat and said, "If you don't get along, you can ask Uncle Wang to send it off. I have to go to work tomorrow, so I'll leave first."
Ren Baiman complained: "Tsk, you kid, why don't you know how to show mercy to women?"
Li Chuyao: "Auntie, I'm fine."
Fang Yan: "Chu Yao lives very close by, so it doesn't take much time from you. Don't you even have the most basic courtesy now?"
"..." Fang Yuechuan sighed patiently and said to Li Chuyao, "Let's go."
Ren Baiman said to Li Chuyao: "Send me a message when you get home and come back to play when you have time."
Li Chuyao nodded obediently: "You and uncle should go to bed early. I'll go back first."
Ren Baiman: "Yeah."
The two took the elevator downstairs. Fang Yuechuan walked in and stood at the back, looking down at his phone. He didn't look up or say a word the whole time.
Li Chuyao looked at the figure reflected on the elevator and kissed him curiously: "Who have you been chatting with all night?"
Fang Yuechuan: "The person I like."
Li Chuyao was startled: "..."
The two were silent until they got into the car. Fang Yuechuan put down his phone and asked, "Where are you going?"
Li Chuyao: "Wan Huating."
Wanhuating was indeed not far away. Fang Yuechuan knew where it was and started the car directly.
Li Chuyao was silent for a long time and then asked: "You said you have someone you like, is it true or false?"
Fang Yuechuan: "Really."
Li Chuyao looked at him and pursed her lips: "Uncle and aunt don't seem to know?"
Fang Yuechuan: "Yeah."
Li Chuyao: "Why don't you tell them?"
Fang Yuechuan: "It has nothing to do with you."
Li Chuyao: "Why does it have nothing to do with me? My uncle and aunt obviously prefer me to be with you."
"..." Fang Yuechuan didn't expect her to say such a thing. He glanced at her and said, "I never listen to them."
