Chapter 88 Enthusiastic Little Field
"Oda, reporting for duty!"
He spoke with great energy, his voice as clear and crisp as a marble falling into a glass bowl.
If you add a standard salute, it's truly unbeatable.
Before Wang Zian could speak, Tian's mother's voice came from behind, carrying the characteristic sharp yet loving scolding of people from Sichuan and Chongqing:
"Hey girl, stop rushing around like that! People thought you were going to knock them over!"
Wang Zian looked up and saw Mother Tian walking over quickly.
Although she was dressed simply, her hair was neatly combed, and she looked more energetic than in the video last night.
"Zi'an, you've worked hard!"
"Of course, Auntie!" Wang Zian said with a smile, "You must be tired from your journey!"
"Of course!" Mrs. Tian nodded with a smile, then reached out and patted her daughter on the back.
"This girl couldn't sit still after hanging up the phone yesterday, and she got up at five o'clock this morning to pack her luggage."
The two exchanged pleasantries, but Xiaotian's eyes had already drifted to the girl standing next to Wang Zian who hadn't said a word.
Xiao Tian carefully examined Zhou Ye.
Her first impression was that she was rich, beautiful, and cold.
This woman was wearing a white knitted suit that looked very expensive, with an exquisite blue and white checkered collar, and her lips were painted a bright red.
Her features were so exquisite they looked as if they had been sculpted with a knife, but at this moment her face was expressionless, and there was no warmth in her almond-shaped eyes.
"Hello, my name is Tian Xiwei~! You can just call me Xiao Tian." Xiao Tian smiled and extended her hand.
Oda's hands still looked strong.
After glancing at it, Zhou Ye put on a polite and courteous smile and extended his hand: "Hello, my name is Zhou Ye! You can call me Xiao Ye."
"I know you, I know you~!" Xiaotian completely ignored her coldness and excitedly grabbed Zhou Ye's hand in return.
"I've watched those two videos of yours so many times! They're so well-made! You're even prettier in person than in the videos!"
As she spoke, she released her grip, swiftly pulled her phone from her pocket, opened a short video app, and held the screen up to Zhou Ye's face.
"Especially the second one, the potato chip storyline, it cracked me up!"
"When I got off the plane, I glanced at the videos and they both had so many likes! The first one had over ten million, and the second one had several million!"
"Really?" Zhou Ye's attention was drawn.
She was so busy this morning that she didn't have a chance to check her phone, so she doesn't know yet.
"Seriously, look at this trending list! You're third! You guys are going to be famous!"
She leaned forward a little, her gaze falling on Tian Xiwei's phone screen.
Her account name was prominently displayed at number three on the trending topics list, with the first two being international news and the exposure of a famous actress's relationship.
The corners of her mouth finally curled up slightly, almost uncontrollably.
Wang Zian watched the two people's movements from the side.
Seeing that they didn't start fighting, but instead started looking at their phones together, he silently breathed a sigh of relief.
From the moment he woke up in the morning, he felt that Zhou Ye was not in a good state today, like a string that was stretched too tight and was about to snap at any moment.
But now, as Tian Xiwei dragged her to look at her phone, the frost on her face was melting at a visible speed.
"Auntie, Xiaotian, let me introduce you," he stepped half a step to the side and stood in front of Zhou Ye, "This is Zhou Ye, a soon-to-be freshman in the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy, class of 16. You see her in the video."
"Hello, Zhou Ye." Mother Tian smiled and nodded, her gaze lingering gently on Zhou Ye's face for a moment.
"Hello, Auntie!" Zhou Ye smiled obediently, his voice dropping from its previous coldness to become well-behaved and polite.
"You look even prettier in person than in the video!" Tian's mother exclaimed sincerely.
"Thank you, Auntie! Xiaotian is very pretty too, with especially big dimples!"
Mother Tian's gaze lingered on Zhou Ye's face for a while longer.
She knew this was a potential colleague her daughter might work with in the future, and she silently made an assessment in her mind.
"Let's go eat first! My two colleagues have already made a reservation at the restaurant."
As she spoke, she grabbed the suitcase from Tian's mother and walked outside.
Xiao Tian immediately followed, walking side by side with Wang Zi'an, with less than half a shoulder between them.
Her pigtails swayed back and forth behind her head, and her small white hair ties bounced with her every step.
"Wang Zian, what made you decide to come to Yanjing to film short videos?"
"Are those storylines really what you imagined?"
"Why didn't you get into the Shanghai Theatre Academy?"
Tian Xiwei kept asking all sorts of questions, and the dimples at the corners of her mouth never disappeared.
Zhou Ye and Tian's mother walked behind.
Zhou Ye looked at the two of them, a thin layer of discomfort rising in his eyes.
She realized someone was next to her, turned her head, and her eyes met Tian's mother's.
Mother Tian didn't say anything, she just smiled slightly at her.
Zhou Ye forced a smile, turned his face back, and quickened his pace.
Wang Zian drove onto the airport expressway.
Zhou Ye remained in the passenger seat, while Xiao Tian and her mother sat in the back.
However, Oda is quite energetic and can't stay still at all.
From the moment she got in the car, she had pulled the seatbelt up as far as it would go, and she was lying on the armrest between the two front seats, with her head sticking out from the middle and her pigtails hanging down next to Wang Zian's arm.
Mother Tian, however, took a closer look at Yanjing with great interest.
"Wang Zian, you still haven't answered me! Did you really write those storylines yourself?"
"Yes, I wrote it myself."
"How are you so amazing? How do you come up with so many funny jokes?"
"Observe more, remember more, and think more, and you can do it too." Wang Zian held the steering wheel with one hand and glanced at her sideways.
Her round, baby-faced features were very close to his, her almond-shaped eyes filled with curiosity.
"I've been to BJ twice before!" Xiaotian steered the conversation back to himself without any transition.
"The first time was when I was eleven years old. I came alone to study at the Beijing Martial Arts School. The second time was to attend an arts exam preparation class."
Wang Zian raised an eyebrow; "You've practiced martial arts?"
"I've practiced! I practiced for a while. I learned long fist, sword, and spear. I just neglected it later, but I urgently practiced for a few months for the art exam."
"You wouldn't believe it, the martial arts school students get up at five every morning to do morning exercises, and in winter their hands get so cold they look like carrots."
Zhou Ye glanced at Tian Xiwei with surprise, thinking to himself: No wonder she has so much energy.
···
Once they started talking, the group began to chat.
However, when Tian Xiwei said that she had no background in art and took the college entrance examination as a non-art student, she was shocked.
When Zhou Ye finally received acceptance letters from both Nanjing University of the Arts and Shanghai Theatre Academy, he still admired them.
She also knows how tough the art exams are.
She recalled those days when she would stand on the barre for two hours at a time in the art exam class, and her legs would shake when she returned to the dormitory at night.
The initial wariness that welled up inside me was somewhat diluted at this moment by a softer emotion.
Feeling like he had found a kindred spirit, Zhou Ye took the initiative to tell his own story.
"What? You also decided to take the art exam in your senior year of high school?" Tian Xi asked in shock.
Zhou Ye nodded. "I only studied for five or six months."
"Then you still dared to apply to the Beijing Film Academy!" Tian tide's eyes widened, and she sincerely gave a thumbs up. "You're better than me. I applied to the Shanghai Theatre Academy and the Nanjing University of the Arts. I didn't even dare to think about the Beijing Film Academy."
Zhou Ye felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
"You're very impressive; you passed the entrance exams for two schools at the same time, which proves your strong professional skills."
"Oh! It's just so-so, not as good as Beijing Film Academy!" Tian tide waved her hand generously.
The car drove smoothly through the midday traffic, and the two girls chatted casually about their experiences with the art exams, sitting across from each other in their seats.
Xiaotian's enthusiasm also made Zhou Ye lower his guard.
Compared to Tian Xiwei, Tian's mother sat quietly in the back window seat after getting on the bus.
