Reborn: Changing Fate
Applying to the Film Academy

Recalling the person he had in his previous life, Ye Tianxin fiercely shook his head, vowing to never repeat the stupid mistakes he made in this new life.

The girl sitting in front of Ye Tianxin turned to ask about her grandmother, looking worried. "Tianxin, I heard your grandmother was sick. How's he doing?"

"Lumayan."

Looking at Ye Tianxin, the girl asked, "What's wrong with you today?"

"I spent the whole night by my grandmother's bedside in the hospital and didn't sleep much."

Placing his backpack on his desk, Ye Tianxin walked straight to Ye Youran's side and gently knocked on his desk.

"Ye Youran, when school is off today, please go home and tell your mother not to keep any designs on my family property!"

Staring at him with wide eyes, Ye Youran replied, "Ye Tianxin, stop accusing people with your unfounded lies!"

"Last night, your mother took my grandmother to her sick bed. Ye Youran, I'm telling you now. You and your family should pray that my grandmother will get well soon. Otherwise, I, Ye Tianxin, swear by my life that your entire family will have no peace …." Ye Tianxin declared, her eyes flashing with hostility.

Shuddering, Ye Youran realized that she was actually secretly afraid of Ye Tianxin.

"Ye Tianxin, your grandmother is old, so it is only natural that she is not in good health. Don't blame my mother for everything under the sun."

However, Ye Youran felt guilty for it. When she returned home the previous afternoon, her mother noticed that she was crying and asked why. He then told his mother what was happening at school.

After that, his mother came out, but he did not know that his mother went to see Ye Tianxin's grandmother.

"Ye Youran, wasn't your mother always proud of you, bragging about how good you were at school? When the time comes, don't forget to invite your mother to come see you doing a rabbit jump in front of the whole school!!"

After making his brutal little speech, Ye Tianxin walked back to his own desk.

Keeping his head very low, his tears fell, drop by drop, from his eyes.

In his previous life, his college graduation certificate was actually paid for by the Lu family.

Later, when she became Gu Yancheng's wife, and did not want to embarrass her husband, she hired a foreign language teacher to teach her English and various other teachers to train her in other subjects.

Thinking back, at this age in her previous life she was just a pretty face with no knowledge or skills.

Just like a beautiful fool. Blank-headed and a subject of ridicule.

No wonder no one believed him when the incident happened!

Wiping away her tears, Ye Tianxin raised her head high and opened her textbook to study.

Aside from the English language, she felt completely lost in all her subjects. It was like Greek to him.

With only three months before the college entrance exam, she had to struggle and work very hard to seriously try it again, to get good grades in college entrance exams and be in a position to control his own destiny.

Ye Tianxin began her arduous journey in preparing for the college entrance examination, sleeping only four hours every day.

She spends all her time memorizing her books, including during meals, when she goes to the bathroom, and when she walks.

Even his homeroom teacher, seeing how hard he worked, tried hard to ensure that he was well supported.

But the fall of Ye Tianxin's grandmother hung over his head like a dark and ominous cloud that refused to disperse.

After thinking about it, Ye Tianxin decided that he should first make money to send his grandmother for a medical examination at the hospital in the city. But how will he make money?

How could he make money while at the same time making sure that his studies were not affected?

"Tianxin, why since your last bet with Ye Youran, you suddenly turned into someone who likes to learn?"

Sitting on the edge of the flowerbed in the school courtyard, Ye Tianxin held a half-eaten red apple in her hand, balancing the Chemistry lesson guide on her lap.

"I want to be a devoted grandson to my grandmother. I don't want her to worry about me at her advanced age."

Ye Tianxin looked at Li Xiaohui, who was wearing her school uniform and wearing a pair of plaits.

She vaguely remembered that Li Xiaohui had studied at a special training college.

After she started working, someone played matchmaker, so she married a local civil servant.

Life after marriage was not ideal, as Li Xiaohui was often subjected to harassment by civil servants.

In one particularly violent incident, Li Xiaohui ended up dying from physical abuse.

At the time of her death, she was six months pregnant….

After Li Xiaohui's death, his family made a huge commotion, and the incident exploded and became the talk of the town.

In the end, the civil servant paid Li Xiaohui's family a large sum of money.

Li Xiaohui's family used the money to renovate the three-story house for his younger brother, buy him a car, and arrange for him to get married.

Her family continues to live happily and harmoniously, and the sad story of their dead daughter seems to be deliberately forgotten.

"My mom said what's the point of studying so hard? A girl would eventually be married once she was twenty!" Li Xiaohui announced, refusing to work too hard for the exam.

Secretly, Ye Tianxin felt sorry for Li Xiaohui and decided to help change her destiny as well.

"Xiaohui, your mother was right. All women will eventually get married, but think about it. If you go to college, you can marry someone who has a degree. If you were just a high school graduate, what kind of man would you marry? Marriage for a woman is like being born again. Don't you want to marry well?"

However, Li Xiaohui did not seem to understand what Ye Tianxin was trying to say.

"However, why not? Xiaohui, think. What if you could earn ten thousand a month? Are you willing to marry someone who earns only a thousand a month? If you make ten thousand, you will be able to marry the man who made ten thousand .... We don't have to look too far to see this. Just look around us. Just look at our music teacher. She is the kind of woman every man dreams of. See who she married—someone in the provincial city who owns a house and drives his own car. And he was also transferred to work in the provincial capital…. If you are satisfied with the situation, you cannot see the forest for the trees. Think about it. Do you see any good men around you?"

Drowning in his mind, Li Xiaohui seemed to have understood him. Ye Tianxin did not interrupt Li Xiaohui. Instead, he felt sympathy for her. He had been given the chance to start all over again, but Li Xiaohui did not get a second chance….

If he could somehow help Li Xiaohui, he would do a good deed and would build his treasure trove of blessings.

Ye Tianxin had originally planned to return to the classroom, but halfway through she stopped, after deciding that she should have a backup plan.

What should he do if he does not do as well as expected on the college entrance exam?

Ye Tianxin recalled that some art academies did not have very high entry scores for cultural subjects.

So he definitely had to try taking the entrance examination for the art academy.

Standing in front of the teacher's office door, Ye Tianxin knocked on the door quickly, where someone replied, "Come in!"

"Sir Chen, I have a question."

Ye Tianxin looked at her homeroom teacher respectfully, Teacher Chen.

Nodding, Master Chen asked, "Ye Tianxin, what's wrong?"

"Sir, I want to ask if I can apply to the Capital University and the Capital Film Academy at the same time?"

While Master Chen pondered his question and did not reply, Ye Tianxin continued, “Pak Chen, as you know, I was late realizing my mistake, and even though I had worked very hard, I was too late, I'm not sure that I'll make it to Capital University. So, I was thinking, could it be that I applied to take the entrance examination of the Capital Film Academy?"

Jiameng High School, the alma mater of Ye Tianxin, is just a small school located in a small ancient city. And the teachers there must be neither knowledgeable nor understanding of the world like the people in the city. In fact, his teacher had never even heard of the Capital Film Academy.

"Ye Tianxin, you're right to worry. Of course you can apply to take the entrance exam of the Capital Film Academy if you want to do so. Let's do it. How about I call the Department of Education later to find out if they know what to do and how to sign up?”

"Thank you, sir."

Master Chen had seen for himself just how Ye Tianxin had changed recently and was convinced that this kid was serious about getting good grades.

So he naturally was happy to help her in any way he could.

When Ye Tianxin returned to the classroom, Li Xiaohui turned towards her and said, "Tianxin, I think what you said makes sense. Whaddya think? Would it be too late if I started studying hard from now on?"

When the bespectacled boy who shared Ye Tianxin's table heard what Li Xiaohui said, he replied, "Of course it's too late. You should know that you are not as smart as Ye Tianxin, so you should know your limits …."

Li Xiaohui snorted in annoyance, took his book from him, and hit him with it, exclaiming, "In Shanshi, who cares if you are a top student!  I was talking to Ye Tianxin, so think about your own business!"

Ye Tianxin was a little distracted. All he knew was that the entrance criteria for the Art Academy were not very strict but.

"OK, relax. It's time for our lesson."

After school that afternoon, Ye Tianxin requested a leave of absence from Teacher Du, the teacher in charge of the afternoon chemistry study session.

Carrying some money, Ye Tianxin went to an internet cafe located near the school.

After depositing ten dollars, Ye Tianxin found a computer and sat down.

He entered the user id and password given on the internet card for access and then immediately searched the Capital Film Academy.

Clicking to open the website of the Capital Film Academy, Ye Tianxin, knowing what he was looking for, quickly found the page he wanted. After she filled out her name and other information requested on the login application form, she realized that she did not have any photos to upload, which was a mandatory requirement for the application.

Ye Tianxin then remembered that when she entered the internet cafe, she saw a photography studio located opposite the cafe.

He wondered if they could take the necessary photos for the application form.

Standing up, he told the boss of the internet cafe, "Sir, I should be out for a while and will be back soon. Can you keep an eye out and not let anyone mess up my computer for me? Thank you." Thank you."

"Of course."

The cafe boss was not disturbed. The internet cafe is charged by the hour. As long as users have not closed their accounts, they will have to pay regardless of whether they use the internet or not.

Ye Tianxin went across the street to the photo studio. Upon entering, he sees a man sitting in front of a computer and watching a Japanese romantic action movie. Even though his volume was scaled down, Ye Tianxin could still see what he was doing.

"Sir, I'd like to print a 3x4 photo for use for the application."

"Come in."

The owner minimized the windows on his computer. With the camera in hand, he came to the counter and asked Ye Tianxin to sit on a large piece of blue cloth.

"Peach your shoulder straight. Yeah, that's all!"

Ye Tianxin focused her attention on the owner, who was busy photographing him. With elegant and flawless features, Ye Tianxin looked like a naked-faced goddess in the photo.

"Sir, can you add me to your QQ contact list and send me an electronic file of my photo?I'll need it for another purpose. Thank you." Thank you."

Ye Tianxin paid for the photo and returned to the internet cafe. He then sent the owner of the photography studio a reminder window, and shortly after a photo of his head appeared on the window.

After uploading the file containing his photo to the website, Ye Tianxin saw a display message that said "Application Succeed". Only then did he feel confident that the app was in progress!

"Thank you Sir!"

Not as a dormitory resident, Ye Tianxin, a day student, was free to enter or exit the school grounds at any time of the morning, afternoon, or evening.

Since he had asked permission earlier this evening, he did not need to go back to school.
