The incident of animal cruelty caused quite a stir among the students at the school.
The university's security cameras, which were originally turned off, were all turned on because of this incident, watching every corner of the campus from every angle.
The school also purchased a batch of freeze-dried nutritional products for the homeless animals and built loving shelters for them throughout the school.
Xia Chuyue kept a close eye on this matter and anonymously donated all the appearance fees from participating in the program to the city's Stray Animal Protection Association.
It was seven days later when everything finally calmed down.
The dating reality show livestream has started again.
Xia Chuyue arrived at the familiar studio, sat on the sofa, and familiarized herself with the format of the variety show that was about to begin.
Yu Wanwan has been too busy lately, so the guest has been changed to a female star who has just debuted.
Xia Chuyue wasn't familiar with the other person, so she exchanged a few polite words before falling into a daze.
What should we eat after this?
[Forget it, my manager's been pretty strict lately. I'd better look for some interesting gossip instead!]
The new actress was surprised for a moment when she heard Xia Chuyue's thoughts. She was then patted on the shoulder by the veteran actor next to her and pulled into the group chat.
Xia Xinxin, who arrived late, didn't take the two's actions to heart.
"Xin Xin looks great today!"
A celebrity jokingly said something.
Xia Xinxin gave a soft "hmm," glancing subtly at Xia Chuyue. Thinking about Xia Chuyue's fate later, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"People are in high spirits when they have good news, and I recently announced a movie that will be released soon!"
Xia Xinxin's latest movie was produced and directed by Xie Yao, her biological brother from the same parents, who is also Xie Yuanping's illegitimate son.
Everyone naturally exchanged pleasantries and offered their congratulations.
Xia Chuyue, however, ignored Xia Xinxin and turned to look at the screen, waiting for the live stream to begin.
As the large screen in front of us came down, the live broadcast started, and the dating reality show also began to air.
The familiar sweet background music, the tug-of-war of unrequited love, the entanglement, and the pink bubbles all unfold in the short trailer.
Xia Chuyue watched intently, her gaze finally settling on the previously overlooked, inconspicuous female lead.
[Huh? The female lead's makeup and styling are much bolder this time, does she have someone she likes?]
[The third female lead and the fourth male lead are still such a great couple! The atmosphere is amazing!]
Xia Chuyue watched and made comments, and also went on to gossip about the third female lead and the fourth male lead.
[On the surface, the third female lead is an elite, intellectual white-collar worker, but in reality, she's a very cute little girl!]
Wow, her biggest wish is actually to save up a huge sum of money, then go to a nightclub and hire a few male models for fun, hahaha!
[Sure enough, all sisters in the world think so alike.]
She even fantasized that if she could become the CEO's substitute, then after the breakup, she could whine and take the 50 million to live a carefree life!
You know what, I've thought about this wish many times back when I was in college.
When Xia Chuyue recalled her university days, she couldn't help but think of Pei Qi.
At first, Xia Chuyue didn't know how much Pei Qi was worth. She just did it because the young master Pei was very generous with his money, so she was willing to save him a seat and bring him breakfast.
It's a pity that Pei Qi, such a handsome young man, has a mouth.
Her mouth is so sharp it's like she's been laced with arsenic; what a waste of her good looks!
Shaking her head, Xia Chuyue shook Pei Qi's image out of her mind and continued happily shipping the couple.
[The fourth male student, a typical teenage boy in high school, is quite popular with girls!]
[But he just likes the gentle and intellectual type of the third female lead; the two of them are a perfect match!]
The celebrities present were also stirred up by Xia Chuyue's shipping of the couple, and they silently observed what was going on.
The scene gradually progresses to the evening dinner of the dating reality show guests.
An ambiguous atmosphere slowly wafted through the sultry summer night air, enveloping the hearts of every guest.
As they chatted, they started reminiscing about funny stories from their past.
The second female lead, resting her chin on her hand, recalled:
"I used to love taking selfies when I was in high school, and my style was really unconventional, haha! They were absolutely awful!"
"Our high school was really tough, with tons of test-taking geniuses!"
When this topic was brought up, the female lead remained unusually silent.
The second female lead kindly nudged her and, with a smile, asked her to say something too.
The female lead gave a bitter smile, pursed her lips, and spoke:
“I didn’t have a good high school experience. There were cliques in my school, and I was very ordinary and unremarkable. They always pushed and bullied me.”
Upon hearing this, the girls all looked both distressed and surprised.
The female lead's style during the show was always very cheerful and carefree, as if she were a natural source of joy.
Did I never expect to be bullied in high school?
This was a highlight of the show, and the director paused at this point to start interacting with the celebrities in the studio.
"Everyone has a past that is either glamorous or filled with grievances, so what was high school life like for celebrities?"
Xia Chuyue kept looking at the female lead, and touched her chin, feeling that the female lead's style today looked somewhat familiar!
Xia Xinxin was the first to answer.
“My family arranged a lot of private lessons for me during high school. Girls tend to gain weight during their growth period, so my mother even hired a etiquette teacher.”
Xia Xinxin's life used to be like that of a little princess.
She attended the best private elite school, where she was surrounded by admirers, and at home she was pampered and doted on by her parents and aunts.
Recalling the past, Xia Xinxin couldn't help but hate Xia Chuyue even more.
If it weren't for Xia Chuyue, my happy life wouldn't have been ruined!
The comments section was also buzzing with excitement.
[Xin Xin truly lives up to her reputation as a wealthy heiress in the entertainment industry; her high school life is something we can't even imagine!]
Wow, is this the advantage of being rich?!
I won't say who's envious!
Since entering the entertainment industry, Xia Xinxin has never publicly revealed her relationship with Xia Yao and Xia Chen because Xia Yao dislikes relying on family background.
However, her occasional flaunting of wealth still reveals her privileged and affluent lifestyle that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Her fans often bring up Xia Xinxin's family background, calling her a little princess who escaped from the entertainment industry.
Xia Chuyue felt a little disgusted by Xia Xinxin's words.
"My high school life was rather boring, consisting of working, going to school, and doing practice problems."
Xia Chuyue already knew what she wanted when she was in high school, and knew that she could only rely on herself, so she studied like crazy!
Of course, it was also thanks to this exam paper that she successfully entered the same university platform as those rich kids.
However, if you roll it too hard, the aftereffects can be severe.
Since Xia Chuyue started college, all she wanted to do was lie down and give up.
