[I’m a fourth-year computer science student. As far as I know, the book “Simple Programs” that this student Shen mentioned, I’ve seen it with our professor before. Our professor has been studying this book for a long time. I bought a copy, and it’s like reading a heavenly book! The person beside Nian Nian is definitely a big shot. If he’s not the one who scored first on the report card, I’ll chop my head off!]

When Shen Jun saw someone actively linking him to Wen Nian, his gloomy mood instantly lifted. “There are still some clever people among your fans who understand that our connection runs deep.”

Wen Nian chuckled, but she didn’t burst the bubble of Shen Jun’s overactive imagination. The person merely mentioned the reason for her academic improvement without even bringing up their romantic relationship. How did he jump to the conclusion that they had a deep connection?

In the dormitory during lunch break, Sun Min and Zhou Bei had already made friends in the comments section. Many fans, after learning about their student relationship with Wen Nian, greeted them proactively, and they followed each other, becoming friends.

Both sides made a pact that the next time someone tried to cause trouble in Wen Nian’s comments section, they would quickly inform each other to counterattack. With the numbers growing, Sun Min and Zhou Bei decided to create a WeChat group specifically for countering negative comments aimed at Wen Nian.

Zhao Jiao, who had been paying attention to Weibo, saw the QR code and her eyes lit up. She immediately scanned the QR code and joined.

In the classroom, Wen Nian had no idea that her future fan support group was taking shape at this moment.

To respond to her fans who liked and supported her, Wen Nian set aside 2 hours each week for her Weibo activities. Her main focus was to update her recent activities and interact with her fans.

By the end of December, the movie’s success was entirely driven by word of mouth. Two months after its release, the box office had surpassed 1.8 billion yuan, and it was still on an upward trend. Industry insiders predicted that it could reach 2.7 billion yuan within three months.

After seeing the news posted on Xu Chang’s WeChat Moments, Wen Nian finally felt relieved.

In her previous life, the movie’s box office had only reached 1.5 billion yuan. She had managed not to hold Xu Chang back this time.

Xu Chang’s life had undergone a tremendous change recently. The well-known cinemas that had previously declined his film for screenings were now reaching out to him, requesting the screening rights.

Even those classmates who had disappeared for a long time resurfaced. Relatives who used to look down on him changed their attitudes and either tried to get close to him or asked for money. Their attitude was so different from before, as if they had transformed into different people.

Xu Chang was now on cloud nine, walking on air. Even his sleep was filled with joyous laughter.

Facing these people’s sudden change of heart, Xu Chang merely smiled calmly. He knew the real motives behind their actions.

He wasn’t a saint. He would repay those who had helped him, but he wouldn’t hold back against those who had tried to undermine him.

Thinking about the upcoming three-day New Year’s holiday, Xu Chang decided to organize a celebration.

Wen Nian didn’t want to attend, but Xu Chang was clever. He immediately went to find Shen Jun.

Shen Jun’s agreement was entirely due to his concern for Wen Nian’s months of intense studying. He wanted to take her to the capital to relax. If he didn’t intervene, Wen Nian’s mental state would likely remain tense until the end of the college entrance examination.

With a practice book supporting her chin, Wen Nian looked at Shen Jun with her watery eyes. “I’ve been stuck around 65th place in the past two monthly exams. Everyone’s scores are so close, and 1 want to hurry up and spend more time studying.”

After her rebirth, Wen Nian cherished the learning opportunities she now had. In her previous life, dropping out of high school was a major regret for over a decade.

To her, getting into a good university in this life would provide her with a better path to start anew.

If one did not suffer from studying, one would suffer from life. Wen Nian had already experienced this saying.

She had experienced the hardships of life, and it had left a deep shadow on her. That’s why she didn’t want to waste a single minute.

Shen Jun furrowed his brows slightly, looking at Wen Nian with helplessness. “You’re not made of iron. Even though you’ve been deluding yourself and instilling the idea of studying hard, your subconscious might already be silently protesting. The term ‘work-life balance’ exists for a reason. You shouldn’t ignore it..”
