The Martial Artist Turned Movie Mogul-Chapter 1015 - 1014. Tall and Mighty Female Warrior
After the exams come the winter vacation, a day that makes all students jump for joy.
Of course, this includes Tang Shu.
"I really don’t want to use my brain anymore. What I need is rest."
After finishing the last exam, Tang Shu weakly slumped over the table and complained loudly.
Three consecutive days of exams had emptied her brain of knowledge, and coupled with her recent day-and-night research on Gu insects and medicines, she seemed to have developed a short-term aversion to medicines.
No matter how much she liked these things, it couldn’t save her desire for a balance of work and rest. If it weren’t for those patients in the base waiting for their lives to be saved, she wouldn’t have worked so hard...
Sitting nearby, Cheng Ranran was packing up her exam admission card and supplies, and clearly heard her friend’s complaint despite the empty seat between them.
"Are you sure that the first-in-class holder needs to use that much brainpower for the exams? Don’t tell me you still need a lot of time to review when you can pinpoint the test sites accurately every time."
"You don’t understand... my head is now full of the names of medicinal herbs."
"Need me to give you a memory wipe?"
"No, thanks. I don’t want to become an idiot. And you don’t have a magic wand either."
"Silent wandless magic, understand?"
Ye Xiaohui couldn’t stand listening anymore and delivered each of her wandering companions a playful punch.
"Hurry up and pack up. We’re getting on the train soon. And you, after the exam, all the time can be used for rest, what good does lying down for just a bit do?"
Cheng Ranran had already put the last pen into her backpack, and after her childhood friend’s reminder, her eyes suddenly sparkled.
"Right right, don’t just sit there, let’s go, let’s go!"
Today is not only the day exams end and winter vacation starts but also the day the four of them go to Yi City.
Why four people?
Because... Qianyun managed to squeeze in by getting a spot to Tang Village with a top ten mock exam result, and he was already waiting at the Medical College entrance.
When the three ladened with bags climbed onto a private car in a rush, Qianyun handed out the burger meals he bought on the way.
"I wasn’t sure what you all like to eat, so I bought a little of every flavor."
"Wow~~ Is this Xu Family’s little brother? He’s really handsome!"
"Uh... thanks."
Qianyun blushed shyly under the intense gaze of two girls slightly older than him, causing them to exclaim.
The three got to know each other while eating burgers, Qianyun had just come over from school and joined the lunch crowd, and before long they finished all the meals.
An hour later, the four burped their way through security and boarded the train bound for Yi City.
"Is it true that tickets for transport to the north are hard to get lately?"
"Yes, I was originally planning to buy a plane ticket, but they were booked up a month in advance; today’s train ticket was a last-minute addition by the transport department."
Because of Tang Shu, they bought first-class seats. Even so, this recently crowned Best Actress still held high topic relevance, so she had to suit up in full gear.
Hat, mask, scarf—wrapped up tight from head to toe, revealing only a pair of clear eyes.
Cheng Ranran found it amusing, "Wow, seems like it’s not easy for you, stepping out feels like secretive work, no freedom at all."
"Exactly."
In only a few hours, Qianyun had bonded with them, "Sister Ran, you have no idea, every time I enter or leave school, I’m on edge, afraid a reporter is nearby taking photos."
Tang Shu paused, putting down her phone with a frown, "Your school doesn’t care?"
"They do, but they can’t do anything outside the school. But even if they manage to snap something, they don’t dare publish recklessly, the Xu family isn’t just for show."
Qianyun quickly explained when he saw his sister frowning in concern.
"Originally, they wanted to interview in front of Xu Corporation, but ever since last time... they gave up."
Cheng Ranran sipped the soda she’d bought from the food cart, glanced at the embarrassed young Xu brother, and chuckled.
"What are you worrying about? Relax, your Sister Tang Shu is pretty chill; she’s probably forgotten all about it."
The young boy’s emotions were plastered all over his face; even someone as simple-minded as Cheng Ranran saw through it with her few years’ advantage.
It was clear he knew about the recent disagreement between the sisters, and he felt troubled by being caught in the middle.
Tang Shu still mulled over what had been said, dumbfounded, and looked at Qianyun.
"What, what are you guys talking about?"
"Nothing, nothing."
Qianyun shook his head vigorously, hesitated for a while, then said, "Thank you, sis."
Tang Shu: "???"
Thank me for what? What did I do? Can you all clarify, because this guessing game is really beyond me.
However, Qianyun clearly didn’t want to dwell on this topic anymore and quickly shifted the conversation.
"By the way, sis, does Uncle Tang know I’m coming, is he okay with, um... outsiders?"
"Relax, my dad’s pretty laid-back; even if mom and Uncle Xu were to stay a few days, he wouldn’t mind."
"..."
This left Qianyun and the other two speechless.
So what kind of temperament does Father Tang really have!
***
Father Tang is definitely the most lovable elder in the world.
This was the unanimous conclusion and truth that Cheng Ranran and the others reached after staying at Tang Village for five days.
"Xiao Shushu, Uncle Tang’s personality is just so charming, I really like it~~~"
"Uncle Tang may look rugged, but he’s actually very attentive; you can tell by how well he raised you,"
agreed Ye Xiaohui while assessing.
Tang Shu listened, her face turning dark, "I’m so charming thanks to my mom’s good genes, thank you."
"Oh, come on, in this face-stinging cold weather of Yi City, even the delicate little girls of Jiangnan would turn into robust women."
"So what am I, a mighty heroine?"
Standing at over 1.7 meters, Tang Shu didn’t fit the short and nimble mold at all. She touched her delicate little face and pondered if it was perhaps due to Tang Village’s favorable geography.
"You’re our new Best Actress, thank you."
Cheng Ranran grinned, showcasing two rows of neat white teeth. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
In the expansive courtyard, the three girls huddled together in the sunlight, feeling a bit drowsy, while not far away, Qianyun, like a little follower, stayed close to Father Tang, offering assistance now and then, getting along harmoniously.
"It’s really amazing, I didn’t expect Uncle Tang to like Brother Qianyun so much."
