I woke up to find I had gotten my marriage certificate with a female celebrity.

"No...isn't that right?"

Why was Qin Yi interviewed by state media?

"And it was an exclusive interview, a full forty-minute interview!"

Gu Jun was the first to speak, but he immediately noticed strange looks from the students around him.

He initially wanted to ask why he was being looked at like that, but he quickly realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

Gu Jun's hands flew around in mid-air.

If I had a pen in my hand, I could probably draw a picture.

"I don't look down on Qin Yi, I'm just too surprised."

Aren't you even a little bit curious?

"Qin Yi has had quite a few projects in the past few months, and his popularity hasn't waned."

"But can this get you featured on official media?"

The students looked at each other, confused; they didn't understand what had happened either.

Gu Jun's words made a lot of sense, so they all turned their attention to Lu Yanlin.

During his internship, he was closest to Qin Yi.

They not only chatted and laughed all the time, but he also brought his daughter over to be his agent.

Lu Yanlin didn't publicize it to others, but living near the company meant they would inevitably run into each other every month.

Once, a group of girls went out shopping together, and they happened to run into the two of them while having dinner that evening. They were sitting right behind them.

The group listened intently and learned the details of Lu Ranran's relationship with Qin Yi.

"Why...why are you all looking at me like that?"

"Don't think I can give you any inside information. You'll find out when the time is right."

Lu Yanlin felt a little uneasy under the stare and tried to change the subject by pointing to the interview on his phone.

Everyone realized that he did indeed know something, but since he was unwilling to say, there was nothing they could do.

"Let's... watch the interview first."

Xie Zhi let out a timid voice, which, though very soft, drew everyone's attention back to the present.

Lu Yanlin was supposed to give a graduation speech, but he was completely out of the mood for it now.

Curious about the interview content, I simply turned on the projector and invited all my colleagues who hadn't left work yet to come to the office to watch.

Five or six.

Twenty or thirty.

The small office quickly filled with people, all of whom were filled with curiosity.

Some people believe that Qin Yi has a powerful background, and there are quite a few people who think this way.

Some people think it's because the work is of high quality, but that doesn't explain why there was a 40-minute interview.

Because it was released by official media, its reach naturally extended beyond the music industry.

In the teachers' work group of Yangxian No. 2 Middle School.

Some teachers are complaining about the low average scores this year, while others are discussing the issue of adjusting teaching methods.

A Chinese language teacher named You Jing suddenly forwarded a video link, which seemed somewhat inappropriate.

"Come quick, everyone! I've got my students featured on official media!!"

"This Qin Yi is my student for three years. Not only is he academically excellent, but he is also mature and steady at a young age."

"I always thought he'd make a name for himself, but I never expected it to happen so quickly!"

Teachers in county towns rarely change schools unless it is due to force majeure.

For example, getting married, or health reasons.

Several of Qin Yi's former teachers quickly recognized him; he really was one of their students from back then.

"Oh my, it really is him! He's changed so much after all these years!"

Another teacher added.

"I remember he was the only one in the whole class who was willing to keep a buzz cut back then. Now that his hair has grown long, I didn't recognize him at first glance."

Principal Wang of Qinyi High School couldn't stop smiling.

Two weeks ago, he received a notice from the Education Bureau saying that official media wanted to come to the school to film, and asked him to arrange for the school to be cleaned up.

Wang Ran was initially puzzled as to why official media would come to his county high school.

Upon hearing that Qin Yi was to be interviewed, he couldn't resist promoting it within the school.

It's a source of pride to have a celebrity from your school.

He even planned to play the interview during the opening ceremony.

At worst, it'll just be an extra forty minutes; we don't have to go to class on the first day anyway.

If possible, he would even like to invite Qin Yi to give a speech at the school.

Young girls definitely love looking at handsome guys, especially older students who have just graduated from school; they naturally exude a sense of familiarity.

If this can motivate students to improve their grades, that would be even better.

"Director Zhang, let's play Qin Yi's songs on the radio next semester."

"What? Which Qin Yi are you asking about?"

"That's Qin Yi, the one who helped organize the school's arts festival back then. He's been interviewed by state media now, didn't you know?"

Aside from the school, Qin Yi's several classmates' group chats were even more lively.

@QinYi's instructions have been flooded with messages, but the person in charge just won't come forward or say a word.

Liu Sisi took a screenshot of Qin Yi's expression; it was from the introduction at the very beginning of the video.

She even marked it with a red arrow.

"Will Qin Yi still smile so shyly? I've been his classmate for three years, how come I've never seen him smile like that before?"

A girl who once pursued Qin Yi even complained.

"Don't bring up those days. You have no idea how much courage it took for me to confess to him back then."

"But this guy not only didn't laugh, he also gave me a sour look and rejected me."

"I still feel angry when I think about it now."

Several male classmates who were familiar with Qin Yi shared the same sentiment.

Thinking back to those funny things from back then, I wonder who tagged Karena Ng first.

"Your Qin Yi has been featured on official media, aren't you going to say something about it?"

"Teacher Xiran, your award-winning composer has become very famous. Is he planning to produce a new album for you?"

The classmates' teasing voices rose and fell, and Chen Qianyu, unusually, posted an innocent emoji.

Then she disappeared without a trace, and no matter how her classmates searched for her, they never heard from her again.

Everyone in the group knew the truth about their relationship.

The girl who had just been criticizing Qin Yi started teasing him even more.

"So perseverance is the secret to winning Qin Yi's heart. Qianyu is really smart."

"If I had been this smart back then, Qin Yi might be my boyfriend!!!"

Remembering how Chen Qianyu used to follow him around like a shadow, the group chat erupted in laughter.

Even Chen Qianyu herself couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle when she saw the message.

I picked up my phone and dialed a number. The call was answered after just one ring.

"Daughter, what brings you to call me?"

"What's wrong? Did the boss bully you?"

Chen Qianyu noticed that the phone call was quite noisy, so she asked Li Juan where she was.

"Mom's eating out."

"They said the company's performance in the first half of the year was good, so they treated everyone to a meal together."

Chen Qianyu had intended to tell her the news after she got home, but she was so excited that she couldn't help herself.

"Mom, Qin Yi was interviewed by state media, and the video has been released. Do you want to watch it?"

At first, Li Juan didn't realize what was going on, thinking it was just a media interview, what was so interesting about it?

But then she suddenly remembered the words "official media" and her heart tightened.

"Official media? What does that mean?"

"Will it be on CCTV?"

Chen Qianyu thought about it carefully and felt that it was pretty much the same.

After hearing this, Li Juan stood up abruptly, startling her colleagues who thought she had gone mad.

"Li Juan, what's wrong?"

Li Juan quickly called out to Qin Wanli, who was standing next to her.

"Dad, our eldest son is on CCTV."

"You were interviewed on CCTV!!"
