The day before the recording of the second episode of the All-Class Challenge.

It was rare for Cui Xuelin to take the initiative to contact Song Qingyou. The first thing he asked was for her to go to A University’s Film Academy.

Song Qingyou looked at the list of items in her hand, thinking that her plan to go to the orphanage would have to be delayed again.

Song Qingyou walked into Cui Xuelin’s office with the cat in her arms. Only then did she realize that she wasn’t the only one called by the teacher today.

When He Yuan saw Song Qingyou, his eyes were filled with surprise.

“Teacher, the little junior you mentioned is Qingyou?”

“Yes, it’s her.”

Cui Xuelin said proudly, “I accepted a good student, didn’t I? 1 remember that Qingyou’s second drama was with you!”

If one didn’t know better, they would think that Song Qingyou was Cui Xuelin’s daughter!

In fact, many of Cui Xuelin’s students were active on the big screen. Song Qingyou hadn’t stepped out of the TV industry yet, so she wasn’t the best anyway.

But to be able to make Cui Xuelin like her so much, Song Qingyou must have a lot of potential, both in acting and in the future.

He Yuan suddenly understood why Lin Siya had joined Shengshi Entertainment so decisively.

“Yes.” He Yuan nodded blankly and smiled. “1 didn’t expect Qingyou to be the junior sister Teacher always talked about.”

Cui Xuelin happily praised her, “Qingyou doesn’t want to use my connections for anything. She just wants to practice her acting skills. It would be great if you guys could work as hard.”

He Yuan nodded repeatedly.

After lecturing his former students, Cui Xuelin finally got to the point.

“There’s no other reason for calling you here. The Beijing Art Troupe is looking for drama actors recently. I’ve read the script. He Yuan fits the image of the male lead. 1 recommend you to give it a try.”

“The third female lead in the script needs to be able to dance and act. They have been looking for dancers but haven’t found a suitable one. I’ve seen a video of Qingyou dancing before. Qingyou should be fine.”

Song Qingyou nodded.

“A play is a test of your acting skills. If you want to make a name for yourself with your acting skills and film a movie to get on the big screen, you have to find time to try out a play. You’ll learn a lot.”

Nowadays, theater was only a niche art, and very few people paid attention to it.

Cui Xuelin was worried that he would be rejected by the two of them, so he specially emphasized, “The play that the Beijing Art Troupe is rehearsing this time is to be performed at the National Grand Theater at the end of the year. If it succeeds, you might be qualified to be rated as a national actor.”

He Yuan knew Cui Xuelin’s temper.

Since the teacher had called him over, he could not refuse.

Song Qingyou had no reason to refuse.

If she wanted to replace Gu Xingchen and become number one, she had to put in some effort.

Moreover, the rehearsal for the play would only start at the beginning of next month. It was usually at night, so it would not delay her other work arrangements.

After leaving the office, He Yuan offered to send Song Qingyou back.

Even when she was filming The Empress, He Yuan did not have a deep relationship with her.

He was taking the initiative now, probably because he was curious about her identity as a “little junior sister.”

After Song Qingyou declined, He Yuan asked her if she wanted to join Cui Xuelin’s student group.

“We created this group in private. Teacher is also in it. Although Teacher has many students, the official recruitment is very strict. Including Teacher and I, there are only seven people in the group.”

“Who’s there?” Song Qingyou asked.

He Yuan spat out five names in a row, almost all of which Song Qingyou had seen on the Celebrity Ranking list. It seemed that they had all won the Best Actor and Best Actress awards before.

No wonder so many people said that Cui Xuelin was a big shot.

Song Qingyou had the intention to develop the company, so she had to have some connections.

Therefore, when He Yuan handed over the QR code of the WeChat group, she agreed.

After entering the group, He Yuan specially introduced, [Teacher Cui’s last disciple, Song Qingyou.]

After that, the two of them stopped staring at their phones.

In the afternoon, Song Qingyou still had to go to the orphanage, so she left after a short chat with He Yuan.

After she was leaving the academy, Chen Lan arrived in her car.

As soon as Song Qingyou entered, she heard her ask, “When did you get to know Fu Chen and Ye Guiwan?”

“Who is that?”

“Fu Chen and Ye Guiwan, one is a three-gold-medal-winning Best Actor, and the other is a three-gold-medal-winning Best Actress.”

Song Qingyou didn’t reply and immediately took out her phone.

As expected, after He Yuan introduced it, the others in the group replied not long after.

Once someone said that they wanted to follow her Weibo, the others also responded.

Among them, Fu Chen and Ye Guiwan, who were both in the top io, were the two most popular.

Song Qingyou logged back in, then made a few comments in the group.

With her reminder, they only paid attention to Song Qingyou and didn’t reveal that she was Cui Xuelin’s disciple.

When the fans saw the changes in her follower list, they thought that they might have met by chance and did not think too much about it.

When Chen Lan found out that they were all Cui Xuelin’s students, she was surprised, but at the same time, she felt lucky.

Two people and a cat brought a bunch of things to the orphanage.

The old dean, who had received the news in advance, was already waiting at the door.

As soon as he saw Song Qingyou, he greeted her with a smile.

“Child, you always bring so many things every time you come. Why this time…”

The old principal hesitated. “Is Mr. Song alright?”

Song Qingyou had grown up under the old dean’s watch, and it wasn’t until she was old enough to remember things that she was adopted by the Song family.

Later, when the Song family was in trouble, the old dean was powerless. He only contacted Song Qingyou a few times, but he was worried that he would disturb her.

“I’m fine.” Song Qingyou smiled. “The doctor said that there’s a high chance of him waking up.”

“That’s good!” The dean was genuinely happy for her.

Then, Song Qingyou introduced Chen Lan and prepared to stuff Zhizhi into the cat carrier.

Jiang Zhihan wanted to see what Song Qingyou’s orphanage was like when she was young, so he wasn’t too happy about it.

When the old dean saw this, he stopped her. “There are also a few stray cats in the yard. Your cat seems to be quite obedient. You don’t have to put it in.”

Song Qingyou nodded. After moving all the food and clothes in, she reminded Chen Lan to help keep an eye on the cat while she went to look after the children.

The orphanage wasn’t big, but the Song family had donated quite a bit of money before they went bankrupt, so it had always been stable.

Chen Lan followed Zhizhi around and went to the old dean’s place.

Song Qingyou was already chatting with the children. A few older children already understood what “celebrity” meant and asked Song Qingyou for autographs.

The love in the old dean’s eyes was almost overflowing.

“Qingyou used to come here often?” Chen Lan asked curiously.

“Not often. She had to go to school and work. We can’t let her come often.”

The old dean smiled and said, “However, she has always been popular since she was young. The children all like to revolve around her. 1 didn’t expect her to be the same now!”

“At that time, children would fight just to sit and eat with her. Once she opened her mouth, they would stop fighting…”

It was obvious that the old dean was proud of Song Qingyou.

Jiang Zhihan only knew that Song Qingyou was picked up by the old dean at the entrance of the orphanage. He didn’t know how she was doing here, so he was very interested.

Fortunately, Chen Lan was also curious and would ask a few questions from time to time.

The two people and the cat stayed until evening before leaving.

Before she left, Song Qingyou asked the old dean, “Grandpa, has Shen Xiyan come back?”

“Just once.” The old dean shook his head. “She insisted on taking photos and videos everywhere… and she secretly asked me not to tell her life story.”

After speaking, he warned her: “Don’t say anything either, so as not to get into trouble.”

Song Qingyou nodded in agreement..
