The genius and beautiful young man, Ye Qingxi, died unexpectedly on the day he reached the age of 18.
Looking back on his life, he shone brightly.
He debuted at the age of 5, was nomina...
Chapter 380, Part 2
380:
After celebrating the birthday celebration arranged for her by the Feng family, Ye Qingxi returned to the Mu family home with Mu Shaowu.
He celebrated his real birthday with the Mu family, and then prepared to start his university life.
Just two days after his birthday, the movie directed by Xu, in which he had made a cameo appearance, was officially released.
Director Xu called and asked if he had time to help with the publicity.
It doesn't require too much effort; you just need to attend the premiere.
Since Ye Qingxi had nothing better to do, she agreed.
Marketing accounts quickly released the news, and Ye Qingxi's fans never dreamed that he would actually attend the premiere. They were excited and eager to see him.
Some people expressed concern about his cameo appearance: "[It feels like Ye Qingxi hasn't acted in a long time, right? Can he still act well?]"
I thought he had retired from the entertainment industry!
When the official announcement came out, I was really looking forward to seeing his official photos, but there haven't been any!
I wonder how his acting skills are now?
I'm more worried about their looks than their acting skills; I really hope they don't grow up to be unattractive!
That's true. Acting skills can improve, but if you grow up to be less attractive, you're doomed!
However, they soon realized that they had worried for nothing.
On the day of the movie premiere, Ye Qingxi appeared at the scene wearing a simple white short-sleeved shirt and jeans, instantly stunning everyone's eyes.
"Holy crap, he's so handsome!" the fans exclaimed as they took photos. "This is what a beautiful boy is!"
"She looks even better than when she was a child, oh my god!"
"Is he really not Mu Shaowu's biological son? How can someone who isn't his biological son be so good-looking!"
"Aaaaaah, can't a director please cast him in an idol drama? Idol dramas need a face like his!"
The fansites were snapping photos, while Ye Qingxi stood gracefully and answered questions.
His reunion with Coach Xu inevitably brings back memories of the opening ceremony of the World Championships years ago.
Ye Qingxi then sang "Us" again.
He can no longer sing with the same childlike voice he used to have, but he sings with a different kind of feeling now.
That's the youthful exuberance and spirit unique to teenagers, something that's both captivating and exhilarating.
Listening to his a cappella singing, the host exclaimed, "Xiao Xi, your singing voice is as beautiful as ever!"
Ye Qingxi smiled to himself, thinking that was true; even now, he still occasionally goes to Kang Lao's house to give lessons, okay?
Although it was called a class, it was more like a party.
Many times when he went there, his senior brothers and sisters would be there, and they would talk about music and create new songs together. Ye Qingxi even wrote a song specifically for Lu Mian and Zhu Qiu.
Lu Mian and Zhu Qiu were initially excited, but after their excitement subsided, they realized that his songwriting style was somewhat similar to Murong Qing's.
"Oh, he's my teacher without being officially recognized," Ye Qingxi explained.
Lu Mian and Zhu Qiu were surprised.
Old Kang smiled and explained, "That all happened a long time ago."
"You know?"
“Of course, becoming an apprentice is a big deal, so he told me first back then. I agreed, but Xiao Xi himself was not very willing. Fortunately, Murong Qing cherishes talent and was willing to give up the title to teach him.”
"Wow~" Zhu Qiu exclaimed, "How lucky you are, junior brother~"
Lu Mian then put his arm around his shoulder, showing their buddy-like relationship, saying, "From now on, your senior brother will be carrying me."
Ye Qingxi smiled and said, "No problem."
Even now, when Ye Qingxi thinks about it, she can't help but smile, feeling warm and happy.
He answered the host's questions and the audience's questions cooperatively before finally getting into Mu Shaowu's car and going home after the premiere.
The next day, Ye Qingxi invited her whole family to see a movie.
In this movie, he plays a young swordsman who speaks very little, is very cold, but has excellent martial arts skills.
Although his screen time wasn't extensive, every appearance he made was stunning. Coupled with his good looks, compelling character, and excellent acting skills, he became the focus of public attention as soon as the movie was released, even attracting more attention than the male and female leads.
Ye Qingxi is trending on social media again.
Ye Qingxi's high school classmates were utterly exasperated: "When did you start acting?! You're acting and you still got better grades than us?!"
Ye Qingxi: ...Because he usually works very hard.
Ye Qingxi sent a shy emoji and didn't dare to say anything more.
And so, the day of the start of the semester at B University arrived!
Mu Shaowu took a special leave of absence to accompany him to B University.
Feng Que also wanted to go, but Mu Shaowu refused.
With the movie's popularity soaring, Ye Qingxi's fame has surged once again. At this point, it's already dangerous for him to go. If Feng Que joins in, they'll be a truly dazzling trio.
Especially with Feng Que's height and his high eyebrows and deep-set eyes, it's not easy to fake it.
Therefore, Mu Shaowu firmly disagreed.
"You can only be our driver at most."
“Then I’ll be your driver,” Feng Que said without hesitation.
"Alright," Mu Shaowu reluctantly agreed.
Ye Qingxi looked at the two of them and silently barked.
Mu Shaowu: ...
Feng Que smiled, finding his future son truly adorable.
He opened the car door and let his future wife and children get in.
Ye Qingxi then sent a text message to Qin Cheng, saying that she would be arriving soon.
Upon seeing this, Qin Cheng quickly went out the door.
Registration for freshmen is always the busiest time. Looking at the sea of people, Mu Shaowu was really afraid that he would be recognized.
He examined his disguise, making sure it didn't resemble his usual self at all, before getting out of the car.
Qin Cheng had already arrived and was waiting for him at the school gate.
He was handsome and tall, attracting frequent glances from boys and girls passing by.
A female student even went up to him and asked if he could take her to the registration area.
Qin Cheng: ...
Qin Cheng was about to refuse when he spotted Ye Qingxi's car and walked towards him.
Ye Qingxi got out of the car and took her suitcase.
“I’ll do it,” Mu Shaowu said.
"It's okay, I can manage on my own," Ye Qingxi said with a smile.
He had barely finished speaking when he felt someone approaching him. He turned around and saw Qin Cheng.
Qin Cheng readily took his suitcase. "Let's go."
Ye Qingxi nodded.
Mu Shaowu laughed, "Xiao Cheng, what brings you here?"
"I'll help him," Qin Cheng said.
Mu Shaowu listened and thought he was really quite friendly.
He lowered his head and said something to Feng Que, then put his arm around Ye Qingxi and they entered B University together.
At this time, the campus was full of new students registering for the exam. Soon, Qin Cheng led Ye Qingxi to the registration area.
Ye Qingxi was at the end of the line. When it was her turn, she handed over her admission notice and other documents.
The senior student calmly accepted it, but the next second he was anything but calm.
"Ye Qingxi?!"
He looked up in surprise, and holy crap! It really was!
Instantly, everyone else also turned to look in this direction.
Ye Qingxi could only smile slightly.
Although he was wearing a mask, his movie was still showing in theaters. So it would have been better if we hadn't mentioned it before. Now that we've mentioned it, everyone is looking at him again and realizing, "Isn't this Ye Qingxi?!"
The senior student exclaimed excitedly, "I'm a huge fan of yours! Your acting in the movies was absolutely fantastic!"
Ye Qingxi: ...
Ye Qingxi said gently, "Thank you."
"Let me take you to your dorm."
No sooner had he finished speaking than another senior student said, "I'll go instead; you still have work to do here."
"I'll have Lao Li cover for me."
Old Li: ? ? ?
Old Li: "Then I'll take Junior Ye there."
"Go away, go away, where are you going?" The senior with the ponytail glared at them, then turned to Ye Qingxi, her voice as gentle as a spring breeze, "I'll take you there instead~"
Ye Qingxi: ...
"No need," Qin Cheng said calmly.
He took the keys from in front of Ye Qingxi, pulled him over, and said, "Let's go."
Everyone: ? ? ?
Ye Qingxi asked in confusion, "Do you know how to get to our dormitory?"
"Um."
How did you know?
Of course, I scouted the location beforehand.
University A and University B are very close to each other, and students from both schools often visit each other's dormitories. Zhang Chun was curious, so he also wanted to visit. He thought his good friend would refuse, but to his surprise, his good friend not only agreed but also went to the dormitory area to look at the building numbers.
Zhang Chun:......
"Look at this?"
"Xiao Xi will probably get into Peking University."
Zhang Chun: ...He knew it! It really was related to his younger brother.
"Then you'd better take good care of yourself. You'll have plenty of opportunities to come here in the future."
Qin Cheng: ...
For once, Qin Cheng felt that what he said was right.
So at this moment, Qin Cheng led him towards the dormitory area.
Ye Qingxi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him walking leisurely along the way.
With his father around, he was actually a little afraid that the senior students would lead the way for him.
What if, while leading the way, he discovers that the rough-looking man next to him is his father? Wouldn't that damage his father's image in everyone's mind?
Thank goodness.
Ye Qingxi glanced at her rough-looking father next to her and stroked his beard.
Mu Shaowu: ...
Qin Cheng led Ye Qingxi to the dormitory building and helped him carry his suitcase upstairs.
Ye Qingxi followed beside him and asked solicitously, "Are you tired? Do you want some water?"
"No need," Qin Cheng said.
Ye Qingxi's floor was on the third floor, which wasn't very high, so he didn't feel tired at all.
He glanced at the dormitory room number and led Ye Qingxi to the left.
Ye Qingxi followed him, looking at the house numbers they passed along the way.
As he approached his dormitory, he heard voices coming from inside.
"Holy crap, did you guys know? Ye Qingxi actually came to our school!"
"Ye Qingxi? Which Ye Qingxi?"
"Who else?! The one who makes movies! Isn't he in 'The Mask,' which was released these past few days? He plays the swordsman, and he's so handsome! I could only watch him the whole time!"
"Him?! Isn't he an actor?"
"Yeah, why would he come to our school instead of going to film school?"
"Who knows? Anyway, when I came back, I heard them talking about it. They said he seems to be in the same major as us. I just don't know which dorm is so lucky to be living with him."
Ye Qingxi looked up at the dormitory room number, then at the dormitory number on her key. "You're the people in this dormitory!"
He stepped inside, and as soon as he entered, he heard a boy who was tidying his desk with his back to him say casually, "Do you think he got in on his own merit?"
The two remaining people in the dormitory had already seen Ye Qingxi and were so surprised they almost cried out.
"Definitely!" the boy sitting on the bench quickly replied.
"That's not necessarily true. This movie wasn't filmed before. How could he study and make movies at the same time, and still get into our school? Is that even possible?"
"Why not? Maybe they really have the ability," another boy sitting on the bed said, somewhat embarrassed.
Turn around, you idiot! Turn around now!
However, the boy who was tidying up the desk was still busy packing his things and didn't notice the crazy hints his roommate was giving him.
"I don't think so. Maybe he pulled some strings. You know, his father is Mu Shaowu. If Mu Shaowu wanted to get him in, then it's definitely possible..."
He was about to say, "It's not impossible," when he turned around and saw three people standing behind him.
Upon seeing him, the boy in the lead smiled, his eyes crinkling.
Even though she was wearing a mask, her eyebrows and eyes looked exactly like Ye Qingxi.
"Aaaaaaah!" Zhou Cang screamed inwardly. How could Ye Qingxi be in their dorm?!
And at this very moment!
This is just too ridiculous!
The next second, Zhou Cang turned to look at his roommate sitting on the bench, "That's definitely impossible."
"I know Mu Shaowu! He has impeccable morals and high ethical standards; he would never do such a thing!"
Roommate: ...
"Furthermore, the fact that Ye Qingxi was able to perform at the World Championship opening ceremony when he was a child means he must have some extraordinary talent. In my opinion, he must be the kind of person who is exceptionally intelligent and gifted, and who has been ahead of his peers since childhood. Making movies and getting into Peking University is nothing to him."
Ye Qingxi: ...
Ye Qingxi almost burst out laughing.
That's interesting of his roommate. As long as he's not embarrassed, it's everyone else who's embarrassed.
Ye Qingxi took a step and walked towards her bed.
Zhou Cang then acted as if he had just discovered him.
"You're here! Our dorm was just missing you," he said. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhou Cang, and you are?"
Ye Qingxi watched him show off his skills in front of Guan Yu, and cooperatively took off her mask: "Ye Qingxi."
"Oh my god! Speak of the devil, and he appears! We were just talking about you! You're amazing! You're making movies and taking the college entrance exam at the same time, you're doing both so well!"
Ye Qingxi smiled and found him quite amusing.
So he deliberately said, "No, it's mainly because my dad is powerful. My dad is Mu Shaowu. If my dad wants to get me in here, then of course..."
He gave Zhou Cang a look, hinting at something.
Zhou Cang: ...
