Reborn: Changing Fate
Meet People from the Past
When Ye Tianxin reached the academy, there were already many people crowding at the entrance gate. The crowd consisted of applicants who came for interviews and some of their parents.
With great difficulty, Ye Tianxin broke through the crowd and passed through the entrance gate to the academy. He then went to join the ranks at the recruitment office to pass the assessment.
The other girls waiting in line had various shapes and sizes, and all of them were fully dressed in attractive clothes.
On the other hand, Ye Tianxin who was bare-faced aka plain, stood in the middle of the beautiful girls dressed in no make up on her face, like a breath of fresh air.
After obtaining his permission, Ye Tianxin left the recruitment office, followed the instructions on the signs to the designated classroom for the interview, and waited outside until his name was called.
Thanks to Chunxue's immense popularity across the country, every recruitment effort at the Capital Film Academy has attracted many enrollees.
Ye Tianxin sat on the bench outside the classroom and waited for her turn. He had just sat down when a girl sitting there got up, an unobscured look of disdain on her face.
Ye Tianxin glanced at him and decided that it would be unbelievable if she managed to get through the first interview with the outfit.
Her hair was dyed red, orange, green, black, blue, and purple. She was wearing a white vest paired with an ethnic-style long skirt, her navel open. With her face covered in collagen painted in various colors, she looked very similar to the type of non-mainstream people rumored to be.
Ye Tianxin felt grateful that, because of Jiameng's remote inland location, she had never tended to experiment with this non-mainstream fashion, even at the height of her youth rebellion.
Perhaps it was because this girl and Ye Tianxin were dressed relatively "strange" so others around them did not seem to pay much attention to non-mainstream girls.
Feeling bored, the non-mainstream girl sat beside Ye Tianxin. She looked once at her old-fashioned dress and white sneakers that had been washed many times and spoke softly, “Hey, are you from the countryside? In your village, are you like, the queen of the village?”
Countryside land?
Village queen?
Hearing the girl's question, Ye Tianxin raised his head and smiled sweetly. "What is the village queen?" she asked. "I don't understand what you mean!"
“It's like, the prettiest girl in the village, you know? Since you're here to apply for admission to the film academy, shouldn't you buy yourself a nicer outfit? Just look at you, wearing such old-fashioned clothes. You definitely won't be able to get through the first interview!”
After saying her part, the girl took out a small mirror from her bag and peered into it, carefully examining her appearance.
Moments later, the girl, while continuing to admire herself in the mirror, muttered to herself, "I thank my parents for giving me such a beautiful face."
After hearing that, Ye Tianxin really wanted to laugh, but he simply closed his eyes and waited in silence for his turn.
After some time, a teacher walked out of the classroom and read out the graduation number. "Number 99, Number 100. Please login.”
No. 99—it was Ye Tianxin's pass number.
Holding his pass card, Ye Tianxin walked into the classroom, while No. 100 followed and also entered the classroom.
At that moment, Ye Tianxin glanced at No. 100, who was right behind him, and froze in shock.
He ... isn't he Lu Qinxin?
Her. Why did he apply for admission to the film academy?
Lu Qinxin was wearing a long white dress, and her hair had decomposed down to her tiny waist. Her tiny face was made thin to accentuate the most attractive features of her face.
"Number 100, come here and remove your makeup. Number 99, start preparing for your appearance.”
Ye Tianxin took a deep and deep breath. Meeting his nemesis unexpectedly this time, without a doubt, somewhat affected his mood.
At first, all Ye Tianxin wanted was to use the interview at the Capital Film Academy as an excuse to send her grandmother for a health checkup.
But now, seeing Lu Qinxin here, all the pain and grievances he had suffered in his past life once again flooded his heart.
Feelings of injustice, hatred, anger, and despair instantly controlled all of his senses.
[Acting Time]
Ye Tianxin walked out, her face beaming with happiness. He could see his car in the distance, surrounded by a large group of people.
Very quickly, he broke through the crowd of spectators and saw some emergency services officers in the distance preparing to force open the car windows.
Ye Tianxin walked towards them and asked, "Excuse me, what is going on here?"
When the car door was forced open, the face of a child was seen.
Shocked to the point, Ye Tianxin's feet gave up, and she immediately fell to the floor. Reaching out, he touched the scorching hot skin of the child and was so traumatized that he trembled uncontrollably. His lips moved, but he could not make a single sound.
His eyes turned into a terrifying pool of emptiness.
Ye Tianxin's small sketch was a solo act.
However, he effectively presents many sides of the scene, providing incredible dimensions and depth.
The emotions of happiness, confusion, fear, horror, and despair were all reflected through her delicate facial expression.
The three inspectors were instantly pulled to the scene, although no one else acted opposite of Ye Tianxin.
From the small details of Ye Tianxin's facial expression and his body language, the inspectors were able to see the context of that short scene.
"Inspector, my performance is over."
Ye Tianxin got up from the floor, her face returning to its normal expression.
There was wordless admiration on the faces of the three admissions inspectors.
Simultaneously, without hesitation, they made a small red 'tick" next to Ye Tianxin's name on their respective lists.
Waiting to the side, Lu Qinxin had completely wiped off her makeup. Gracefully, while holding the precious violin in his hand, he stepped forward to face the inspectors.
“Halo, inspector. My name is Lu Qinxin, and I am sixteen years old. I came from Shenhai City, and I'm here to play 'The Butterfly Lovers' for you."
On the side, Ye Tianxin watched Lu Qinxin's appearance. This was not the first time he had seen Lu Qinxin's show.
In his previous life, after Lu Jijun had brought him back to the Lu family, Lu Qinxin had always treated him well, introducing him to fashionable and glamorous trends.
Naively, Ye Tiaxin believed that Lu Qinxin was a good little sister.
Ironically, it was only when she was on the verge of death that she realized how 'good little sister' hated her….
He hated Ye Tianxin with such intensity that he wanted her to lose everything she ever had—reputation, wealth, status, love.
He hated Tianxin so much that he devised a scheme for his son to die in such a terrible way.
Ye Tianxin looked at Lu Qinxin with neither respect nor admiration for his talent. Instead, his eyes emitted tranquility, like the stillness of a calm sea on a windless day, the image of a calm blue sky and jade green water.
Except that, in the deeper depths of the sea, impenetrable even by light, the intense hatred that would cause mass destruction gradually piled up.
“Thank you, inspector. My appearance is done.”Ye Tianxin looked at Lu Qinxin with neither respect nor admiration for his talent. Instead, his eyes emitted tranquility, like the stillness of a calm sea on a windless day, the image of a calm blue sky and jade green water.
Except that, in the deeper depths of the sea, impenetrable even by light, the intense hatred that would cause mass destruction gradually piled up.
“Thank you, inspector. My appearance is done.”
The three inspectors reviewed Lu Qinxin's description in the newspaper in front of them, and the one sitting in the middle asked, “Lu, your bio appearance is of a professional standard. You must have started learning the violin when you were very young. Why do you want to apply for admission to film academy?”
It was clear that Lu Qinxin did not expect the inspectors to ask him that. Smiling sweetly, she replied, “Master, Chunxue is my idol. I want to be able to play a character similar to Chunxue.”
“Lu, for a professional actor, the national popularity enjoyed by actors like Chunxue is extremely rare. For a long time after first starting this profession, most actors had to be extras in a scene or take on roles such as waitress, baddie, or insignificant scene filler. For someone like you, who plays the violin at such a high level, you can follow the path of a professional violinist very well.”
A trace of confusion appeared in Lu Qingxin's eyes. He assumed that his violin performance would definitely seal a deal for him and get him accepted into the film academy.
“Inspector, how about this? Let me show you another show.”
The three inspectors looked at each other, communicated with their eyes, and finally agreed to his suggestion.
However, since the inspector had just experienced Ye Tianxin's outstanding acting skills, which were reminiscent of the actors' teaching manuals, Lu Qingxin's acting skills looked stiff and pale in comparison.
Ye Tianxin had set a high standard, so Lu Qingxin's performance naturally did not meet the inspector's expectations.
“That's it, then. Number 99 and Number 100, you have completed the preliminary interview. In three days, please check the notice board at the main gate for selected applicants for the second interview.”
Ye Tianxin and Lu Qingxin left the classroom together. Lu Qingxin looked at Ye Tianxin, who was walking in front of her, her eyes gleaming with faint rays of hatred.
As they descended the stairs, Lu Qingxin pushed Ye Tianxin down the stairs.
Ye Tianxin, who had been mentally prepared for this, nimbly went down the stairs.
On the other hand, Lu Qingxin, who wanted to hurt him, skipped a step and fell down the stairs.
Fortunately, with only three steps, the ladder is not very high, so falling from the stairs will not cause serious injury.
"Ouch…"
Lu Qingxin fell through the last rung of stairs.
Standing at the side, Ye Tianxin looked worried as she asked, “Nomer 100, what happened?”
“I lost my balance and fell off the stairs. Can you help me stand up, please?”
Lu Qingxin looked at Ye Tianxin with tears in her eyes. Without hesitation, Ye Tianxin reached out and helped Lu Qingxin stand up.
"Thank you."
Ye Tianxin supported Lu Qingxin as they walked towards the main gate of the film academy.
In the distance, not far from the main gate, Ye Tianxin noticed that Gu Yancheng was waiting and watching near the gate.
When he saw Lu Qingxin, he wanted to rush into the courtyard towards her.
However, as the security guards rejected him, Gu Yancheng had to wait until Ye Tianxin helped Lu Qingxin to the gate before he could take over and help Lu Qingxin.
"Qingxin, what happened? Are you hurt?"
Evident from the look in his eyes, Gu Yancheng was really worried about Lu Qingxin and did not even glance at Ye Tianxin.
When Lu Qingxin saw Gu Yancheng, tears began to flow down her cheeks as she cried, "Yancheng, my legs hurt ..."
Worried, Gu Yancheng leaned over to check for Lu Qingxin's ankle injury.
"Qingxin, I thought you had hurt your leg. I'll take you to the hospital!"
"okay." Lu Qingxin leaned on Gu Yancheng and said, "Yancheng, what about him ..."
When he heard his name mentioned, Ye Tianxin's defense mechanism appeared, and he looked at Lu Qingxin suspiciously. What is he planning now? Was he planning to trap her?
“Did you cause the injury? Let me tell you. You better pray that Qingxin is okay. Otherwise, I will sue you and take you to the prosecutor!”
Gu Yancheng immediately caught the insinuation in Lu Qingxin's unfinished sentence.
At that moment, Ye Tianxin suddenly understood the relationship between Lu Qingxin and Gu Yancheng.
“Listen, Sir. Your boyfriend fell because he was careless. Since he could not walk, I, out of the kindness of my heart, helped him to the gate. Even so, you want to sue me and take me to the prosecutor? Do you think just because I'm from a small town, I don't know the law?”
Tears streamed down her pretty face, Lu Qingxin pulled Gu Yancheng's clothes and whined, "Yancheng, you're wrong!"
