The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

The two days of the college entrance examination passed quickly. After the last exam, Qi Yun didn’t have time to pick up Lian Qingxue because of traffic jams.

When Lian Qingxue walked out of the examination room, Qi Yun was still on his way.

Hundreds of students who had finished the exam surged out of the main gate, and Lian Qingxue was just one of them.

However, her temperament and appearance made her stand out in the crowd.

It seems the ratings were high, so the director of the TV station specially called her and asked her to continue to work hard and not be discouraged.

So, Shen Qiu regained her courage and came running enthusiastically.

During these two days, except for a bizarre person who claimed to be a family member but was an examinee, she interviewed various parents.

After all, the examinees were busy with their exams these two days, and Shen Qiu didn’t want to disturb them. But now it was different. The college entrance examination was over!

Shen Qiu thought she could find a few examinees to interview. Maybe there would be some surprises.

And then, she saw Lian Qingxue.

As a senior “face dog,” Shen Qiu was instantly attracted to Lian Qingxue!

It’s you!

Lian Qingxue was now standing at the entrance of the test center. Other test examinees were picked up by their parents, creating a lively atmosphere.

Only Lian Qingxue stood alone, appearing somewhat lonely and pitiful.

Shen Qiu gestured to the cameraman to follow and ran towards Lian Qingxue.

“Excuse me, can I interview you?”

This time, the cameraman didn’t need Shen Qiu’s prompt.

He aimed the camera at Lian Qingxue’s face and started filming vigorously.

If he didn’t cooperate with shooting a man, but when he was shooting a beautiful girl…. He could show you what professionalism was all about.

Lian Qingxue blushed slightly and asked, “Is this a live broadcast?” Her voice was soft and gentle, and Shen Qiu felt itchy just listening to it as a woman.

She softened her tone even more.

“Yes, it’s a live broadcast. Can I ask you a few questions?”

“Well… you can, but I might not be able to answer.”

Facing the camera, Lian Qingxue was not as confident as Qi Yun.

“May I ask how you feel after finishing the exam? Would you like to share with everyone?”

Lian Qingxue thought for a moment and said, “Hmm… I want to see someone.”

“Is it a boy?” Shen Qiu had a moment of daze.

“Indeed, my boyfriend.” Lian Qingxue replied.

Shen Qiu was in a trance for a while. Time flew by, and it seemed like yesterday when she witnessed someone showing affection outside the test center.

“Ahem, let’s talk about something else. How do you think you performed in the exam?”

Shen Qiu felt the previous topic was dangerous and had a sense of deja vu.

She quickly changed the subject.

“It was okay, I guess.”

“And what kind of results do you hope to achieve?”

“I hope my boyfriend and I can get into the same university.” Lian Qingxue expressed her expectations.

“For example?”

“For example, Shuimu University and Jingchen University both would be fine.”

……

Here it was again. This familiar silence!

Shen Qiu was exhausted. She perceived herself as a seasoned professional journalist by now. However, the answers she received from the interviewees in the past two days shocked her.

Yesterday, the handsome boy I interviewed told me about Shuimu and Jingchen University. And now, this girl also said the same. How could both give the same answers? She muttered to herself.  

Were you two a couple?

Huh? A couple?

“Excuse me… Is he your boyfriend?” Shen Qiu’s face was complex as she pointed to Qi Yun, who was running towards them.

Lian Qingxue turned around, and Qi Yun hurried towards her and hugged her tightly.

Shen Qiu muttered to herself. It’s really you!

Lian Qingxue quickly broke free from Qi Yun’s embrace as she remembered they were still live on camera.

Qi Yun also looked at Shen Qiu in surprise.

“It’s you again, Reporter Shen! What a coincidence!”

Shen Qiu took a deep breath.

“…Yes, quite a coincidence.”

Were you two teaming up to tease me?

Now that Qi Yun was here, Lian Qingxue no longer wanted to give the interview.

She apologized to Shen Qiu and left the test center with Qi Yun.

……

Shen Qiu stood dazed, and the cameraman behind her spoke, “The TV station just sent another message. The ratings were through the roof! They want us to keep up the good work!”

Shen Qiu: …Forget it, career or whatever. It’s all just fleeting.

I’m tired!

Qi Yun took Lian Qingxue back home.

Although the exams were over, Lian Qingxue still had to return to the orphanage. But for now, her luggage was still at Qi Yun’s house.

“Back already?”

Qi Yun’s mother was cooking in the living room.

Qi Yun immediately noticed something different. The meals at home had changed drastically these past two days. It wasn’t that they couldn’t afford meat before, but it was hard to have big fish and meat dishes for every meal like these two days.

Take today’s lunch, for example.

A plate of braised pork, beef, steamed fish, and stir-fried shrimp was there.

Four people in the family were having a meal together, with four meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, and one soup.

The two words to describe it were a luxurious meal!

And yesterday evening, when Qi Yun mentioned wanting to eat crayfish, there was a plate of stir-fried shrimp.

This treatment was simply fantastic.

Qi Yun was eating happily.

But tonight was different. Qi Yun saw that only the leftover braised beef from lunch was still there.

The rest had been replaced with a plate of stir-fried greens, fried tofu, and tomato and egg soup.

They had returned to the previous standard.

“Mom! Is this all we’re having for dinner?” Qi Yun asked.

The decline in standards was too fast.

“What’s wrong? Still, expecting to have big fish and meat every day? Let me tell you, we ate so well these past two days because of your exam success! Now that the exams are over, we’ll live as we used to! Do you want to order takeout? Go to a restaurant if you want! I’m too lazy to cook!” Qi Yun’s mother’s voice came from the kitchen.

She had a particularly pragmatic attitude as if she didn’t recognize people once she pulled up her pants.

Qi Yun understood that his two-day treatment as his mom’s little baby was over.

Lian Qingxue chuckled beside him.

She didn’t mind what she ate.

Besides, Qi Yun’s mother would give her whatever delicious food there was to eat!

She was much better off than Qi Yun!

Qi Yun escorted Lian Qingxue back to the orphanage and then spent a long time writing and drawing at his desk in his room.

With the high school entrance exams over, he was now halfway to being an adult.

He had to let Lian Qingxue know.

Her boyfriend was also a business genius!
