Mu Wenxi: "Just get through it. It's like doing an experiment. You have to fail a hundred times to succeed once. But do you think you can succeed without failing a hundred times? Can you do it by skipping one? But actually, every time is an accumulation. You can't skip even one."
Hearing the familiar chicken soup, Wen Nanyin felt a warmth in his heart: "Mmm..."
"We're almost at the finish line. If you're tired, take a nap."
Wen Nanyin rested his head on Mu Wenxi's lap, finding a comfortable position, and said in his heart, "I'm sorry, Xixi, I won't push you out again. Wait for me, I will definitely become stronger."
Wen Nanyin gradually fell asleep. Mu Wenxi looked at the head on his lap and Wen Nanyin's curled-up body, then pulled a blanket from the sofa and covered Wen Nanyin with it.
Looking at the boy's still slightly damp eyelashes from crying, Mu Wenxi gently stroked his bangs with a touch of heartache: "When will my boy be able to walk on a flowery path forever?"
Wen Nanyin has experienced everything from the chance encounters to the uncertainties of life since childhood. How many trials and tribulations did it take for that small, lonely figure to become the strong man he is today?
Wen Nanyin woke up groggily in the middle of the night and saw Mu Wenxi sleeping soundly on the sofa. He gently put his arm around her waist, picked her up and carried her into the bedroom. Mu Wenxi was not awake at all and seemed to find a comfortable position on the soft bed.
Wen Nanyin lay down next to Mu Wenxi, blinked and then closed his eyes. He seemed unable to live without Mu Wenxi. He woke up in the morning feeling refreshed. He hadn't had such a good sleep in a long time. Before Mu Wenxi woke up, he quickly got up.
Mu Wenxi slept very well. When she woke up, she knew that the boy had carried her to bed, but she didn't know that the boy had been lying next to her all night.
Wen Nanyin, who was setting up breakfast in the living room, seemed to have regained his usual energy. Seeing Mu Wenxi wake up, he looked at the bright sunshine outside and said, "It's dawn, time to hit the road again."
Mu Wenxi chuckled: "When did you become so literary? Keep it up, young man."
Wen Nanyin: "Yes, I will."
Not long after, Wen Nanyin finally passed the college entrance examination, ranking first in both academic and professional subjects. Especially among the art students who scored three or four hundred points in academic subjects, Wen Nanyin's score of over six hundred points was astonishing, and his results once again became a trending topic.
"Youth Role Model" gradually became a catchphrase among Wen Nanyin's fans, while at the same time, a new wave of negative information about Wen Nanyin gradually emerged.
It's nothing more than rumors about Wen Nanyin's previous appearance, saying he had plastic surgery. Wen Nanyin had gone through the exact same thing before, but he got over it that time, and this time he cares even less about these rumors.
Many of the shows and TV dramas that Wen Nanyin has participated in have been dug up, and fans have used facts to prove that Wen Nanyin has just grown up and has never had plastic surgery.
Among the many programs, "The Best Boys," which once brought Wen Nanyin to third place, has attracted some attention. The waves that were once stirred up have subsided, but this time the waves have turned into huge waves.
"Wen Nanyin's strength is clearly so much higher than the others, so why are some judges blind and giving him higher votes?"
"I don't understand. Wen Nanyin was clearly stronger than the champion and runner-up in the final, so why was only one person voted for him?"
"This judge is so unprofessional, they even made a physical attack on me?"
"I always thought Wen Nanyin could only act and sing, but I didn't expect him to dance so well too."
Sister Ping seized the opportunity and fueled the fire, and the truth of the matter was finally revealed. Some hero leaked an audio recording, exposing the program's naked secrets.
"I can't imagine, if Nan Yin hadn't been so strong, they might have really overshadowed the brilliance of this young man."
"If Nan Yin had given up, there would be no Wen Nan Yin as we know him today."
"It's terrifying to think about how many talented young people are being suppressed by capital."
Sister Ping tapped the table: "It's a good thing that this matter has come to light. Although so many years have passed, the truth has finally come out."
Wen Nanyin didn't care that much anymore. For him, that most difficult time was over. If it weren't for the Mu family's help back then, he probably wouldn't have won the bronze medal.
Sister Ping: "Don't worry about the messages online, I'll handle them."
Those judges who were eventually exposed by netizens haven't been doing very well these past few years. The only one who's doing quite well is the female teacher who wasn't involved in the behind-the-scenes manipulation.
Although she faced suppression from the industry when she was young for refusing to accept unspoken rules, her style of conduct earned her a good reputation, and she is now a well-known and reputable dance teacher in the industry.
Those two teenagers who were once favored by capital were exposed to bad things too early, bowed to money and capital, and forgot that hard work is the most important thing. Now they have long since become just ordinary people.
Mu Wenxi felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction: "Finally, this is truly gratifying."
This period of history did not become a stain on Wen Nanyin's reputation; on the contrary, it attracted more fans, and more and more people began to feel sorry for this young man.
Fans: "I feel so sorry for him, but thankfully every step he took counted."
Fan: "He must have used so much effort to get to us."
The young man also had his first magazine photoshoot and interview, during which he revealed a lot of Wen Nanyin's private life. The magazine sold out as soon as it went on sale, with pre-orders reaching hundreds of thousands of copies in a single day.
After receiving the magazine, Mu Wenxi opened the interview with the boy.
"At what age did you start learning dance and music?"
Wen Nanyin: "I started learning dance at about three years old and music at four years old."
"Your calligraphy is also very good. Did you start practicing from a young age?"
Wen Nanyin: "Yes, I started learning music around the same time. My mom enrolled me in several extracurricular classes back then."
"Don't you feel tired and stressed after signing up for so many extracurricular classes?"
Wen Nanyin: "Actually, it was alright. I found it quite interesting at the time, and I didn't find it too hard to learn with my good friends."
"When your participation in the show 'The Best Teens' when you were a child was recently exposed, did you feel that there was any behind-the-scenes manipulation at that time?"
Wen Nanyin: "I was young at that time and didn't understand, but I want to thank my good friend for helping me find a teacher and team."
How do you manage to do so many things and still keep up with your studies?
Wen Nanyin: "It's probably because of focus. When I'm doing something, I just think about how I have to do it well."
"Is there anything you'd like to say to your fans?"
Wen Nanyin: "Yes, I hope you are happy every day, that everything is well for you, and that you shine brightly in your own lives."
