I'm a web novelist, and you want me to work in the entertainment industry?

"I'm exactly twenty years old this year," Yang Mo said.

"So small?" Xia Ziyi exclaimed in surprise. "I thought you were about my age!"

Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei exchanged a glance, both looking surprised.

She's only twenty? Younger than them all.

Moreover… Cheng Che thought about it, shouldn’t he be a sophomore at this age?

It's mid-October now, and the university hasn't started its summer break yet, but Yang Mo is still at home...

Did you not take the college entrance exam, or what?

"...Maybe it's because I work in the fields every day and get so tanned that I look older." Yang Mo sighed, not refuting Xia Ziyi's point of view.

"Then why don't you go to university?" Xia Ziyi asked innocently.

"I was originally enrolled, but I took a year off," Yang Mo said casually.

"I'm coming clean. Don't let my tanned skin fool you into thinking I'm some kind of intellectual. I'm actually a student at 211 University, a school that's really hard to get into!" He smiled smugly.

"I was the one with the best college entrance exam score in the village that year!"

Isn't Brother Mo amazing!

Cheng Tianxia and the other two looked at him with strange eyes—what was this guy showing off for?

"I'm from the Capital Film Academy," Xia Ziyi said innocently.

"I'm from the Shanghai Theatre Academy," Tian Xiwei said innocently.

"I am a graduate of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, (outstanding graduate, (outstanding graduate)."

Cheng Che was not "innocent." He pretended to pat his sleeves and said indifferently.

"..."

Yang Mo scratched his head, thought for a moment, and then realized that he had forgotten that the three of them were all big stars.

It seems that none of their schools were easier to get into than mine, and they all seemed to be top students in their respective schools.

As things stand, it seems he has no way to compare with them.

Shift!

I'm sorry, my brother Mo was a bit abrupt!

[Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter, Lao Mo, what are you doing!]

What are you even comparing yourself to these three bastards? Even the one with the worst grades in school is a big shot like us mere mortals who can't easily mess with us!

[Sister Xia, Sister Tian, ​​Brother Cheng... I'm so sorry, Xiao Mo has had a bit too much to drink!]

[Get out of here if you're drunk! Do you expect me to treat you?!]

I advise you not to get too cocky, or what will happen when Old Mo comes to kill the fish?

"Then why did you take a break from school? Was it because the pressure at school was too much?" Xia Ziyi asked again.

"There's not much pressure at school," Yang Mo shook his head.

"Why is that?" Xia Ziyi pressed.

Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei suddenly had a bad feeling and wanted to stop it from happening, but it was too late.

"My parents passed away unexpectedly last year when I first started university." Yang Mo's face was expressionless. "So I took a break from school for a while to rest and spend time with my parents."

Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei both gasped simultaneously... The worst-case scenario had finally happened...

Xia Ziyi's expression gradually stiffened.

Looking back on Xia's life, she may indeed have lacked in both emotional intelligence and IQ, and she caused trouble in many ways.

But at this moment, she couldn't help but ask herself—Xia Ziyi, how could you have caused such a huge disaster?!

"You you you... I I I..." Xia Ziyi was completely at a loss and incoherent.

Waaaaah, what should I do?

I really want to find a hole and crawl into it!

How could I do such an evil thing!

Everyone was having a nice chat, why did she have to ask that question?

【Oops! Another knife!!】

[Sister Xia... This story teaches us that curiosity really can kill.]

[666 I'm speechless. As a reader of "Dragon Raja," I watched this lousy variety show because of Zero. I'm constantly suffering from heartbreak while reading the novel, and now I'm suffering from heartbreak while watching a comedy show!]

【Then you're a masochist!】

Seeing that Xia Ziyi was almost in tears, Lao Mo finally spoke up:

"It's alright," Yang Mo smiled. "It's been over a year, so it doesn't make me particularly sad to mention it now and then."

"Of course," he said, shrugging. "I'll still feel a little sad. After all, if I weren't sad at all, wouldn't I be a super filial son?"

Xia Ziyi received no comfort; instead, she felt even more guilty and wished she could just kill herself.

She looked up at the sky to keep her tears from falling.

Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei both sighed – even Cheng Che, the king of rambling, and his good friend Xiao Tian, ​​didn't know what to say when faced with this kind of question.

"It's really nothing." Now it was Yang Mo's turn to get a little anxious.

Will tomorrow's trending topic be "Popular young actress breaks down in tears! The reason is a young Bai man...?!"?

"And don't you guys think I have that kind of male protagonist vibe from online novels?" he tried to reassure them. "Maybe in a few days I'll awaken a system and become invincible."

"Speaking of which, let me show you my little wooden sword." He said, taking off the red rope hanging around his neck and placing it in front of everyone.

Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei both looked over curiously, as did Xia Ziyi.

"Look at the words above," Yang Mo said.

Cheng Che took a closer look and noticed five small characters engraved on one side of the wooden sword—

"The largest in the world"

"???" He was completely confused.

The largest... in the world?

What does this mean?

"Ahem." Yang Mo noticed the change in everyone's gaze and coughed awkwardly. "When I was carving the words back then, I wanted to carve 'The Most Extraordinary Man Under Heaven,' but because I didn't calculate the size properly, it didn't fit."

"..."

Xia Ziyi didn't want to cry anymore; her attention was diverted: "Did you carve this yourself? It's so amazing!"

"No." Yang Mo shook his head. "My dad carved this more than ten years ago. Back then, fantasy novels were very popular, so he carved this for me."

"They say this ordinary peach wood sword will one day be transformed into a celestial weapon under the radiant glow of dawn... To be honest, I think he's been deluded by reading novels."

Friends, my dad is a devil! (sad)

Xia Ziyi felt like crying again.

How could anyone in the world cause such a huge disaster twice in a row?!

She never spoke again!

"Stop chatting, come over for lunch!"

Fortunately, Grandma Yang's voice came from the kitchen, saving them from the awkward situation.

"Let's go eat." Yang Mo was the first to stand up, the small wooden sword hanging around his neck swaying in the breeze. "My grandma's cooking is amazing!"

"Let's go, Sister Xia, don't be sad." Cheng Che stood up.

Xia Ziyi did not give any living person's reaction.

"...You don't want the haters to call you a drama queen, do you?" Cheng Che added quietly.

Xia Ziyi shuddered, as if she had recalled some unpleasant memories.

She immediately sniffed, struggling to hold back her tears.

She, she's not a drama queen.

This was all a genuine expression of her feelings!
