Meanwhile, Shi Xi was still taking her exams. She had no idea what was going on outside.
What top student?
She was just an ordinary female college student.
After she finished her exams, Shi Xi handed in her papers and left the examination venue early.
Han Chuan came to pick up Shi Xi with a serious expression. “You’re trending.”
Shi Xi turned her phone on. “Isn’t it normal for me to be trending? What’s there to be surprised about?”
“It’s different this time.” Han Chuan frowned slightly and said, “I keep feeling like someone is adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes.”
Shi Xi had already turned her phone on. Before she could open Weibo, she saw the entertainment news that was being sent.
[Shi Xi has appeared at Haicheng University. She will definitely get the top student’s script!]
“Isn’t this pretty good?” Shi Xi clicked on it and quickly browsed through it. She said happily, “They didn’t slander me, they didn’t scold me. The entire article is praising me for being smart and good-looking.”
Han Chuan said affirmatively, “This is flattery.”
Shi Xi was puzzled. “Flattery?”
Zhu Lin explained, “It means praising you too much, making you vain and conceited, or making passersby dislike you.”
“I know what flattery means.” Shi Xi was puzzled. “But I’m a straight-A student! As for the campus belle… with my looks, being the campus belle is nothing, right?”
Zhu Lin said to Han Chuan, “They’ve already achieved their goal of making Shi Xi vain and conceited.”
Shi Xi: …
Han Chuan looked at the comments and said calmly, “If you continue to be so conceited, the passersby will be even more disgusted with you.”
“No way? Don’t people like to be true to themselves?” Shi Xi asked.
“Everyone likes to be true to themselves, but they don’t like to be arrogant!” Han Chuan could not help but scold, “Go back and read your books properly. You have to get more than 80 points in every subject!”
Shi Xi: “That’s too easy.”
Han Chuan: “…”
It was already tiring enough to bring Lou Ruicong along.
Why were there so many narcissistic people in the entertainment industry?
He was so tired.
Were there not many normal people?
“I’ll go to the Public Relations Department and take down this trending topic.” Han Chuan was tired.
“There’s no need to take it down. It would be a pity to take down the trending topic that the fans painstakingly created.” Shi Xi was already thinking about whether to post on Weibo to increase the popularity.
The corner of Han Chuan’s mouth twitched slightly. “Your topic suddenly became the 7th trending topic. Anyone with eyes can see that this trending topic is bought.”
There were already quite a number of netizens in the comment section who were ridiculing Shi Xi as a hot search marketing celebrity. She did not know anything and only knew how to buy trending topics.
“You bought it?” Shi Xi asked.
“Of course I didn’t buy it!” Han Chuan suppressed his anger and said, “How could I possibly buy such a hot search?!”
Shi Xi could not understand why Han Chuan was so angry.
Just like how Han Chuan could not understand why Shi Xi was so relaxed.
Zhu Lin advised from the side, “Xi Xi is so smart, she will definitely do well in her exams. Besides, Xi Xi is already a top student since she can go to Haicheng University. Now that she has withdrawn from the trending topic, it seems like she is spending money to cover it up.”
Han Chuan looked at Shi Xi.
Shi Xi raised her hand. “I guarantee that I will score above 90 points in every subject.”
Han Chuan was expressionless. “It’s best that way.”
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Shi Xi.
It was just that there were too many underachievers in the entertainment industry.
Han Chuan had seen too many ‘top students’ being ridiculed by passersby. He didn’t want Shi Xi to follow in their footsteps.

After returning to the hotel, Shi Xi was chased into her room to read.
Shi Xi swiped her room card and opened the door. There were scattered rose petals beneath her feet.
Huh?
The petals extended from the door all the way in.
Shi Xi walked along the petals and saw a large bouquet of red roses in the living room.
On the roses, there was a card.
