Who says Beijing Film Academy has no great directors? (2002)

Chapter 116 Going to Beijing Film Academy to Support Liu Yifei

Liu Yifei pursed her lips. "It wouldn't exactly be called bullying..."

Chen Yan was also a student who skipped classes all year round, but he was filming on official orders, and the current head of the directing department was his own mentor, so no one cared about him.

However, Liu Yifei doesn't seem to know many people at the Beijing Film Academy. The only people she knows in her class are Zhu Yawen and a few others, but they are often away filming and not at school.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Liu Yifei is currently the most popular person at the Beijing Film Academy; she's likely to be surrounded by onlookers whenever she appears.

It is difficult for people to become friends when there is a significant gap in social status between them and those around them.

There are likely many people among them with ulterior motives who want to get to know Chen Yan through Liu Yifei.

After thinking about this, Chen Yan understood why Liu Yifei didn't want to go to school.

Chen Yan took Liu Yifei's small hand, squeezed it, and said, "I'll go with you tomorrow."

Liu Yifei looked up in surprise: "Really?"

After saying that, his face lit up with a big smile, and his lonely expression vanished completely.

"Yes, I'll go with you to a few classes, so those who want to get close to you will come directly to me to chat," Chen Yan said reassuringly.

Let's see what the atmosphere is like in the Beijing Film Academy classroom. If Chen Yan finds it strange, then he might as well not let Liu Yifei go and find some experienced actors to teach her at home.

He can train himself gradually; there's no need for him to go to school and suffer.

The next day, Chen Yan picked up Liu Yifei in his Mercedes. She was wearing a white tracksuit and white sneakers, which surprised Chen Yan.

"Excuse me, where are you going for a run?" Chen Yan asked helplessly. He had thought that since he was going to accompany her to class, she would be wearing a skirt or something.

Liu Yifei wore a high ponytail and looked fresh and clean, very youthful and energetic.

"What's wrong? This outfit is really comfortable." She said, flicking the end of her hair, looking completely nonchalant.

Chen Yan gently rubbed his forehead: "Alright, whatever you like."

Before getting into the car, Liu Yifei carefully examined Chen Yan's vehicle. The black Mercedes was very understated, contrasting sharply with her own red Ferrari.

Liu Yifei scratched her chin: "How about you drive my Ferrari today?"

Chen Yan laughed. He really didn't know whether Liu Yifei wanted to be high-profile or low-profile.

She wanted to keep a low profile, so she dressed very casually today, but she also wanted to drive a red Ferrari to school. My sister is really showing a lot of contrast.

"Next time you drive that, don't get surrounded by onlookers before you even get to school."

Liu Yifei pondered for a moment: "That makes sense, let's open this one then."

After getting on the bus, Liu Yifei readily sat in the front row.

Chen Yan turned and leaned over, and Liu Yifei immediately crossed her arms and dodged to the right, looking at Chen Yan defensively.

"Heh..." Chen Yan chuckled, looking down.

He reached out and pulled Liu Yifei's seatbelt over to fasten it.

Then I saw in the mirror that Liu Yifei's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the car started, Chen Yan said quietly, "What are you thinking about?"

It seems my actions yesterday frightened the little girl; she probably won't be able to eat for a while.

Chen Yan glanced at Liu Yifei again and saw that she was frozen in place, which made him even happier. Had she been agonizing over it all night?

"What are you laughing at!"

Liu Yifei glanced in the mirror and noticed Chen Yan glancing at her repeatedly. Enraged, she punched Chen Yan.

"Ahem... Sisi, I'm driving, don't be silly." Chen Yan quickly pulled himself back to reality and stopped looking at her.

Wow—this guy has a really strong grip.

Liu Yifei crossed her arms the whole time, maintaining an unapproachable demeanor.

Chen Yan switched hands on the steering wheel and reached out with his right hand to nudge Liu Yifei.

"what!"

Chen Yan tugged at her again and grabbed the little girl's hand.

Liu Yifei's anger gradually subsided, but she still kept a straight face and scolded, "How annoying!"

Before getting off the bus, Chen Yan loosened his hands, which were already slightly sweaty.

Although I tried to keep a low profile today, a bunch of people still saw me as soon as I got off the bus, and they started whispering among themselves.

The students from Beijing Film Academy were quite reserved; no one came up to greet Chen Yan and Liu Yifei, they just watched silently.

Chen Yan escorted Liu Yifei to the entrance of the Performing Arts Department. "I have to go back to the Directing Department to check in first. I'll come over and keep you company later."

If the directing professors find out that I'm going back to school instead of going back to campus, they'll probably scold me again.

Chen Yan might as well take the initiative to go back.

"Okay, then go ahead." As long as Chen Yan was with her, Liu Yifei felt less uncomfortable.

After Chen Yan left, Liu Yifei went into the classroom and quickly found a corner seat to sit down.

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin weren't here today, and they weren't very familiar with the others, so they felt awkward sitting together.

After a while, Jiang Yiyan pulled Zhou Yang into the classroom.

As soon as Jiang Yiyan entered the classroom, she noticed that the atmosphere seemed a bit off. Looking back, she saw Liu Yifei.

He immediately abandoned his usual preference for the front row and walked towards Liu Yifei with a smile.

"Yifei~"

Liu Yifei looked up in surprise and saw Jiang Yiyan coming over, feeling a little annoyed.

Jiang Yiyan pulled Zhou Yang over and pointed to the spot next to Liu Yifei, asking, "Yifei, is this seat taken?"

Liu Yifei smiled with her eyes narrowed, "Sorry, Yi Yan, this place is taken. He'll be here in a bit."

Jiang Yiyan was surprised. Who else could it be?

"Oh, okay then, Yangyang and I will sit next to you." With that, Jiang Yiyan pulled Zhou Yang to sit next to Liu Yifei.

The three of them still sat in a row.

Zhou Yang nodded helplessly to Liu Yifei, indicating that he was innocent.

Liu Yifei didn't pay any attention and continued to look down at her textbooks. She had hardly attended any classes since enrolling, so reading these books was like reading gibberish to her.

However, Chen Yan had already found a teacher to tutor her, and she was also given a lot of homework. She could barely understand some of the practical stuff, but she was far from understanding the theoretical stuff.

Seeing that Liu Yifei was looking down at her book, Jiang Yiyan leaned on her head and jokingly said, "Yifei, you don't quite understand it, do you?"

"Um?"

Liu Yifei was surprised by Jiang Yiyan's words and turned her head to look at her with a puzzled expression.

The people who had been whispering and chatting nearby stopped talking when they heard Jiang Yiyan's words and started listening intently to the gossip.

The atmosphere in the classroom became somber and heavy.

Zhou Yang immediately sensed something was wrong and tugged at Jiang Yiyan's sleeve.

"Hey, Yangyang, don't pull me! I'm talking to Yifei," Jiang Yiyan said, swatting Zhou Yang's hand away, slightly annoyed.

When Chen Yan entered the performing arts classroom, he found the atmosphere somewhat strange.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were intentionally or unintentionally glancing behind them, he followed their gaze and, sure enough, saw Liu Yifei.

Just as I got closer, I heard Jiang Yiyan say something.

"Yifei, you hardly ever come to school, so it's not surprising that you can't understand the knowledge in the books."

Chen Yan frowned and coldly interrupted, "She won't, I'll make it up to her."

"No one needs to worry about it."
