How could there be such a person in the world?
No matter how talented or academically gifted someone is, they're all no match for An Youyu!
Yan Shiming nodded. "That's right, An Youyu's essay has once again received a perfect score, and there's also some good news to announce."
"An Youyu's essay has won an award from the Literature Yearbook again. However, since there is only one gold award for Literature Yearbook each year, she only won the silver award this time."
"..."
The classroom was eerily quiet; you could hear a pin drop.
First gold medal, second silver medal?
The annual publication awards only two prizes each year: a gold prize and a silver prize.
In other words, An Youyu won all the awards for this year's annual literary publication.
Most importantly, she is still just a high school student.
This……
Horror!
Before Yan Shiming could speak, the students in Class Two spontaneously began to applaud after a brief silence.
It's an honor to be in the same class as such a gifted girl!
"Ding--"
"Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. Reward: 200 development points."
Hearing the notification sound in his mind, Lin Mo was completely unmoved. He turned his head and fixed his gaze on An Youyu's stunning profile. Although he had already guessed this result, he still couldn't help but marvel at her beauty.
"Little Fish, why do you seem like a bottomless pit?"
An Youyu tilted her head and asked softly, "Bottomless pit? What does that mean?"
"Can't reach the bottom."
Lin Mo took a deep breath, "It's one thing that you got a perfect score last time, since the mock exam was relatively easy, but..."
"The second mock exam was also very easy."
"..."
Seeing that Lin Mo was silent, An Youyu curiously looked up. Noticing the helplessness in his expression, she instantly realized the inappropriateness of her words and quickly changed her tune: "That's not what I meant, don't overthink it..."
"Then what do you mean?"
Lin Mo rolled his eyes in annoyance and whispered, "Little Fish, you really need to change your current way of chatting."
"Just like you..."
"Ok?"
"No, it's nothing."
An Youyu quickly looked away, recalling her promise to Lin Mo not long ago, and a faint smile involuntarily appeared on her lips. "That... I think I won the bet last time."
Lin Mo grinned. "That's right, you definitely won."
Hearing Lin Mo's tone, An Youyu looked up, her eyes filled with confusion, "Why are you reacting like this? Shouldn't you be upset about losing the bet? Why are you so happy?"
"Who says you have to feel bad if you lose a bet?"
Lin Mo smiled and countered, "At least there's no such provision in Xia Country's laws, is there?"
"That's not true."
An Youyu innocently shook her head, "I just think your reaction is a little strange, but your results this time are very good, so it's only right that you're happy."
Lin Mo chuckled inwardly, but before he could say anything, Yan Shiming's voice came from ahead.
"In this second mock exam, except for a few students, everyone's scores were generally lower than in the first mock exam, but the rankings have improved. Overall, it's still pretty good. The learning atmosphere in the class has been very good recently, and I hope everyone will continue to maintain it."
"There is only a little over a month left until the college entrance examination. Everyone must seize every minute and second, and work hard to create a better future for themselves after this period."
As Yan Shiming finished speaking, an untimely voice rang out.
"It's okay if you don't do well on the exam, you can always go into the entertainment industry."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shiming's face immediately turned cold. He looked at a boy in the third row on the left, sitting against the wall, and said in a deep voice, "Stop thinking about these useless things all day long. It's fine to develop in the entertainment industry, but do you have any special skills of your own?"
"You don't even have a single skill; are you going to rely on your mouth?"
The boy, as if he had taken the wrong medicine, stood up and retorted, "Teacher Yan, I don't agree with your point of view. Do you have to have a special skill to develop a career in the entertainment industry?"
"There are so many entertainment training companies now, you can learn on the spot. As long as you have good looks, you have a good chance of becoming famous."
“A celebrity with even a little bit of fame earns much more than someone who goes to school and finds a job normally.”
Yan Shiming's face grew even colder. After the boy finished speaking, he pointed to the classroom door and said, "Get out!"
The boy's face stiffened. "Teacher Yan, did I say something wrong?"
"You didn't say anything wrong."
"Then why did you ask me to leave?"
"Is it enough reason that I don't like you?"
"..."
The boy was very resentful, but due to Yan Shiming's authority, he didn't dare to say a word and went to stand outside the classroom as punishment, dejected.
After the boy left the classroom, Yan Shiming slowly said, "Although the entertainment industry is developing well right now, it doesn't mean you don't need to take academic classes. Even if you want to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, you'll have to wait until after the college entrance examination. The entertainment industry also values academic qualifications!"
Lin Mo frowned quickly and lowered his head in thought.
As technology gradually declines in the world today, entertainment becomes increasingly popular, and the influence of celebrities is now unparalleled.
Currently, the total human population is approaching 100 billion, and nearly one percent of them work in the entertainment industry, which is an astonishing proportion.
The global public social platform "Jiaoke" has over 70 billion registered users.
The number of followers of a 'Jiaoke' account has become a key metric for measuring influence.
Looking at the world, there are six celebrities with over one billion followers on social media. Anything these people say can start a trend.
The entertainment trend has also successfully poisoned the minds of young people. If you go out and interview people on the street, at least half of the ten young people dream of becoming stars in the future. The other half either lack confidence or are neutral. Very few young people are averse to becoming stars.
Fortunately, the Xia Kingdom announced a regulation many years ago.
Students who have not taken the college entrance examination are not allowed to work in the entertainment industry, including behind-the-scenes work.
Otherwise, the dropout rate among young people today would be terrifying!
This is very unreasonable!
Moreover, many people have realized that this is unreasonable, but strangely, no matter what solutions are come up to improve the prevalence of entertainment, they all eventually come to nothing.
It seems that some mysterious force is controlling everything, making humanity addicted to this decadent lifestyle.
In contrast, technological levels have been declining.
After thinking it through, Lin Mo felt a chill run down his spine for no apparent reason.
The current state of social development truly gives people a strange feeling!
Lost in thought, the touch on Lin Mo's arm pulled him back to reality. He looked up at An Youyu on his left and asked, "What's wrong?"
An Youyu shook her head slightly, "Nothing, I just noticed you were frowning. Is something bothering you?"
"It's nothing."
Lin Mo did not hide anything and whispered everything he had just thought of.
After listening, An Youyu chuckled, "Why would you care about this? We're just ordinary people, just living ordinary lives. Didn't you say that the more shackles you have, the more tiring life becomes?"
"That's what I say, but something still feels off."
Lin Mo glanced at the girl, then looked out the window and blurted out, "I have a feeling that something's not quite right about this world."
As soon as he said it, even he was stunned.
An Youyu suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. For some reason, she found herself agreeing with Lin Mo's words without any apparent reason.
Lin Mo scratched his head and smiled sheepishly, "I don't know what's wrong with me, I'm acting a bit strange today, don't mind me."
"fine."
An Youyu pursed her lips and said softly, "Think of something happy, like how you got 728 points on the test. If your aunt knew you got such a high score, I'm sure she would be very happy."
"No, no."
Lin Mo shook his head. "728 points is indeed high, but it pales in comparison to your perfect score. I know my mom quite well. When she finds out our scores for the second mock exam, she will definitely praise you and then use you to criticize me."
"impossible!"
An Youyu didn't believe Lin Mo's words and said softly, "You got such a high score, Auntie would never discourage you. Don't think of Auntie as such a bad person, okay?"
"Do not believe?"
"Do not believe."
Lin Mo shrugged. "In that case, how about we make another bet?"
Chapter 117 Winning the Bet
"Want to make another bet?"
An Youyu was stunned for a moment, then blinked blankly, "What are we betting on?"
"About what we were just arguing about."
Lin Mo subtly used reverse psychology, "You think my mom won't hurt me? Then let's settle this with facts, dare you?"
"What's there to be afraid of?"
An Youyu nodded in agreement without hesitation, "What's the bet?"
Seeing that the girl had taken the bait, a smile flickered deep in Lin Mo's eyes. "How about a big meal?"
"Feast?"
Upon hearing this, An Youyu's eyes lit up. "Are you sure you want to bet with me?"
