"Ugh, Xiaoqi, I'm so angry! How can there be such a person? There's absolutely no way to communicate with them, it's so frustrating."

"According to this system, if you had crushed him in terms of grades from the beginning, he wouldn't have been so preoccupied with it for so long."

"I have a feeling that the outcome will be even worse."

"Well, this system is just making a suggestion. Think about it from another perspective: he's practically your die-hard fan, and you might need his help in the future."

"Am I the kind of person who takes advantage of others? Speaking of which, Xiao Qi, are you sure you're not pushing me into a fire pit? What if I use him? How will I repay him? You?"

"Alright, forget I said anything. Take a break and don't disturb me!"

The system disappeared, but Xiang Wan's mood calmed down. Why was she even worrying about Qian Jun's future? It had absolutely nothing to do with her; she could just pretend he didn't exist.

With the help of psychological suggestion, Xiang Wan gradually calmed her agitated mood. After filling out her college application, all that was left was to say goodbye to her classmates and teachers. Having spent three years together, the sudden separation still left her feeling a little reluctant.

"Woman, we don't need to say goodbye."

A voice came softly from the side, instantly banishing the sadness that Xiang Wan had painstakingly accumulated.

"You brat, who wants to say goodbye to you? I'm saying goodbye to our lovely teachers and classmates, not you, so don't flatter yourself."

"There's no need to say goodbye anymore."

Xiang Wan rolled her eyes at him, too lazy to pay him any attention.

A classmate suggested a get-together for dinner, followed by karaoke and taking lots of photos to remember the occasion. Xiang Wan remained noncommittal. This was the last time; she didn't mind giving everyone one last memorable graduation moment. Later, when it came up, it could be a bombshell, beneficial to her career.

It's just that they always have a tagalong wherever they go, which is a bit annoying. Some busybodies even suggested that the two of them sing a duet.

"Hey, this is your school's heartthrob, a top-tier student, are you sure he can sing?"

Xiang Wan gave Qian Jun a provocative look, almost as if she was about to say that he was impotent in that area.

Everyone understood that Xiang Wan wanted to embarrass the school heartthrob, which fueled her enthusiasm. After several attempts to instigate him, Qian Jun's brows furrowed deeply.

"Alright, alright, your school heartthrob only knows how to study. It's really too much of a challenge for him when it comes to talents. How about you all listen to me sing a song, and then give me a score for it, okay?"

"Absolutely! We warmly welcome you!"

The group's interest was piqued, and led by Xiang Wan's few followers, they all started clapping.

Xiang Wan thought for a moment and realized that there weren't any songs from her era at this time. Feeling a bit sentimental, she chose Lao Lang's "My Deskmate".

Singing a cappella without accompaniment is also quite nice:

Will you remember tomorrow?

The diary you wrote yesterday

Will you still be thinking about tomorrow?

You who used to cry the most

The teachers couldn't remember.

You who can't guess the question

I was just flipping through photos by chance.

I just remembered you, my deskmate.

Who will marry the sentimental you?

Who read your diary?

Who put your long hair up?

...

As the song ended, everyone was completely immersed in the sorrow of parting and didn't react for a moment. There was a brief silence in the karaoke room.

The sound of clapping, "Clap, clap, clap," startled everyone awake, followed by thunderous applause.

"I never expected you to sing so well, boss."

"Did you compose this song yourself? It evokes a sense of melancholy after listening to it."

Since you've already stolen the music, it's really unethical to steal the lyrics as well.

"No, it's sung by a singer named Lao Lang."

Many people were eager to try it out, but Xiang Wan stepped back and found a quiet corner to watch them make a fuss and laugh. This is what youth is all about, it's wonderful.

"Woman, we're classmates too."

Qian Jun leaned down and whispered something in Xiang Wan's ear, which made Xiang Wan feel a little uncomfortable. She moved away slightly and replied, "It's just a song title, don't take it so seriously."

"I thought you sang this especially for me."

"You're so shameless, calling me 'woman' from the very first time we met. I have a name, and besides, we don't know each other at all. Don't try to flatter yourself."

"Alright, Wan'er."

Xiang Wan got goosebumps and quickly made her way to the bathroom. She didn't know what else this man might do if she stayed any longer, and she had a very bad feeling about it.

"Xiao Qi, who exactly is this Qian Jun?"

Are you sure you want to know?

"I can't let him be around me all the time; it's not good for my future plans."

"Well, you're actually wrong. Without him, your plans will be at a disadvantage."

"Don't interrupt, let's get serious."

"Okay, Qian Jun's surname is Qian, you know that, right?"

"nonsense."

"Qian's Entertainment, you've heard of it, haven't you?"

"Hmm, I think I've heard of them. Could their family be the Qian family?"

"Bingo, congratulations, you got it right."

Xiang Wan was speechless. Damn it, the more you don't want something to happen, the more likely it is to happen.

The renowned Qian's Entertainment was Li Ying's employer in her previous life, and later became her biggest backer. It was also because of Qian's that Li Ying and Zhou Ziqi became famous so quickly.

In the entertainment industry, fame and popularity are paramount; character is secondary. They present what the public wants to see. Qian's Entertainment's ability to create stars is truly unmatched by ordinary entertainment media.

"Does Qian Jun's family really do this?"

Xiang Wan still wanted to struggle a bit more.
