This humble Taoist priest wants to take the college entrance exam.

Chapter 60 Nobody Believes the Truth (Thanks to RUY16109 for being the Alliance Leader)
Li Wanyin was stunned.

The male high school student that the group of perverted girls in the dormitory group were discussing so enthusiastically was none other than Chen Shi'an, who sat opposite her and drank sweet soup with her!
If they hadn't said they saw it on Douyin, Li Wanyin would have thought they had followed Chen Shi'an and secretly filmed it.

What she said in the group chat before about getting rich and raising boys was just a joke to change the subject... How could you take it seriously!
Her girlfriends didn't care about her personal preferences; as if they knew her peculiar tastes, they would tag her like crazy whenever they saw a handsome male high school student...

Li Wanyin pretended to be dead and didn't reply, saying she would watch the video first.

The scene in the video is clearly a school campus. The time is either during a break between classes or during a physical education class. The camera is handheld and shakes occasionally. You can see many students wearing Yunqi No.1 Middle School uniforms around you.

None of that matters; what matters is Chen Shi'an, who is at the center of the camera and the center of the crowd!
He was wearing his school uniform and practicing the Eight Pieces of Brocade step by step.

His figure was as graceful as a pine tree, his palms seemed to hold up clouds when he raised his hands, his stance was as stable as a rock when he bent his knees, his arms drew arcs as if they could stir up the wind, and his fingertips were as sharp as swords when they were in place. Every move was seamless, flowing smoothly and naturally. Combined with Chen Shi'an's handsome appearance, his eyes and brows were not sharp but had a calm and peaceful quality. His temperament, like a mountain stream, was truly unique.

Having seen all sorts of handsome men online—the creamy, the gloomy, the athletic, and all sorts of other types—when I saw Chen Shi'an, this otherworldly type, it was like tasting a cup of clear tea, a refreshing and delightful surprise.

No wonder those perverted girls in the dorm group chat were discussing it so enthusiastically.

[So handsome and charismatic! How can a male high school student have such an aura? He gives off that vibe of a male protagonist from a fantasy novel at first glance!]
[Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly the feeling!]
[I declare, I also like boys' high schools! They look so clean and pure!]
[Wouldn't it be amazing to live with him?]
[Damn it! I'm definitely going to delete all the chat history before I die. It's so embarrassing to be with you guys!]
Li Wanyin empathized deeply; girls' chat logs are absolutely, positively confidential, and should never be leaked, especially those from group chats—even a random screenshot could be incredibly damaging…

She remained silent because she didn't know what to say...

If I told them that she knew the male high school boy in the video and that he was living with her now, the number of messages would instantly reach 99+...

It's a wonderful feeling to have someone you know being enthusiastically discussed by your friends and appearing in a video.

Li Wanyin never expected that she would see Chen Shi'an's campus life in this way today.

Perhaps she was too engrossed in looking down at her phone for too long, because she didn't put a single drop of the sugar water in her spoon into her mouth for a long time. Chen Shi'an asked curiously, "What is Wanyin looking at?"

Li Wanyin snapped out of her daze, hurriedly grabbed her phone and sat down next to him. She then opened the Douyin video that had been posted in the group chat to full screen and showed it to Chen Shi'an.

"Look, look! Shi'an, isn't that you in this video?"

"Let me see."

Chen Shi'an put down the spoon in his hand and turned his head to look at the video on Li Wanyin's phone.

As Li Wanyin turned off the mute function, the ancient-style zither music accompanying the video began to play along with the video.

The person practicing Baduanjin in the video is none other than himself.

"what?"

"It's you! It's you!"

"It's me. It was taken during PE class this afternoon. It must have been taken by our PE teacher. How did you get it, Sister Wanyin?"

"A friend sent it to me, saying they saw it on Douyin."

"Douyin?"

"...It's just a short video platform, you didn't post it."

"That must have been given out by our PE teacher."

Chen Shi'an understood. During the physical education class, when the teacher was demonstrating the Eight Pieces of Brocade, Teacher Wan was filming him. After filming, Teacher Wan asked him if he could post it on a video website so that more people could see and learn it. Chen Shi'an naturally didn't mind.

He hadn't taken the matter to heart, but he never expected that even Li Wanyin would see the video.

Chen Shi'an didn't understand these things and didn't have much of a concept of them. His expression was calm and indifferent, unlike Li Wanyin who was so excited.

What kind of training are you doing?

"Does Sister Wanyin know the Eight Pieces of Brocade?"

"I don't really understand this, but you've practiced so well! Just watching this video, I can tell you're amazing! That move you did is so difficult... and your body didn't even wobble?!"

"Because I've been training since I was little."

"Great!"

While we were watching the video together, another message popped up on the screen from the group chat.

[Wanyin! Hurry up and pop up! A male high school student who perfectly fits your XP standards has appeared! What are you doing?! @Xiaohuiyin]
[Put your hands up and type! Stop peeking! @LittleEcho]
Two group messages appeared at the top of the screen, and Li Wanyin blushed with embarrassment. She quickly moved her phone away, trying to mute the messages, but her old phone couldn't keep up with her movements and froze on the WeChat interface for a long time...

"what happened?"

"N-nothing! Just a few friends who like to joke around!" Seeing that Chen Shi'an didn't seem to care, Li Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, do you have Douyin on your phone? Try searching for it on Douyin."

"No, I'll download one and take a look."

With WiFi at home, there was no need to worry about running out of data. Under Li Wanyin's guidance, Chen Shi'an downloaded Douyin. However, his phone was even worse than Li Wanyin's, and the download and installation took a long time.

Li Wanyin then opened her Douyin account, entered the Douyin ID with the video watermark, and a user named [Silent Flowing Water] appeared before her.

Upon clicking into the homepage, the video of Chen Shi'an practicing Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade) was the first item on the list, and it already had over 20,000 likes.

"Is this your PE teacher?"

"Yes."

It's a nickname that sounds like it belongs to a middle-aged person, and the profile picture is of Teacher Wan himself.

My profile reads: "Wearing a windbreaker, I tread wild paths; I practice Tai Chi as the clouds rise. No need for a sword in the martial world; I find joy on the track; I cultivate my mind on stone steps; I often linger before the pines in the morning mist, and even compete with my students in push-ups." -- A high school physical education teacher who loves the martial world and travel. Welcome to follow me.

"Your PE teacher is quite the bookish type," Li Wanyin said with a smile. This person's profile picture and nickname perfectly matched her stereotype of a middle-aged man with some intellectual pursuits.

Chen Shi'an laughed when he saw this, "If Sister Wanyin met our PE teacher in person, she probably wouldn't think he's so bookish."

"Very big?"

"Tall and strong, with a strong,江湖 (jianghu) air about him."

"Your PE teacher loves posting on Douyin (TikTok). He's posted so many videos, he treats Douyin like his WeChat Moments."

Chen Shi'an and Li Wanyin looked at it together. There were probably hundreds of videos on the homepage, including his daily teaching, fitness routines, sharing of sports skills, campus scenery, and travel experiences during winter and summer vacations.

Apart from the video featuring Chen Shi'an, which has over 20,000 likes, the other videos only have a pitiful few dozen or a hundred likes.

It's clear that Teacher Wan didn't intend to promote it specifically; she just shared it on her WeChat Moments.

"Your PE teacher is quite interesting!"

"Indeed, he is a rather sincere person."

Seeing Chen Shi'an and Li Wanyin huddled together, seemingly engrossed in something, the black cat watching TV nearby couldn't resist jumping up to join them. What they were watching wasn't important; the important thing was that they couldn't keep it a secret from the little cat.

Li Wanyin wasn't interested in Teacher Wan's other videos. After a quick glance at the homepage, she clicked on the video of Chen Shi'an.

The video was posted around 5 PM, with the caption: "[Sharing a section of the Taoist version of the Eight Pieces of Brocade practiced by Chen, a student in our class. I've practiced it myself for many years, but I always felt like I wasn't getting it right. Today, Chen really opened my eyes, showing me what it means to have natural and effortless energy. I'm sharing this with anyone interested in the Eight Pieces of Brocade. Also, Chen is a genuine Taoist priest and the most special student I've ever had in my teaching career.]"
Douyin's sound quality is a mystery. Watching a traditional Chinese zither piece in conjunction with this video gives a truly refreshing feeling.

Looking at himself in the video, Chen Shi'an found it quite interesting. It was a pity that the video failed to capture the most crucial breathing rhythm when he practiced Baduanjin. However, just this smooth and natural demonstration was enough to amaze laymen.

"Shi'an, you're going to be famous! You've got 28,000 likes! And you've also got several thousand saves, comments, and shares!"

Li Wanyin was extremely surprised. She didn't know Douyin's operation mechanism, but after watching a lot of videos, she knew that such a video had the potential to become a hit. It had all the key elements: freshness, good looks, atmosphere, and authenticity.

Turning to look at Chen Shi'an again, he still had a calm and indifferent expression.

"You're so calm!"

"I do not understand."

Chen Shi'an smiled and looked away. "I'm going to take a shower first. Wan Yin, just leave the bowls and chopsticks after you finish your sweet soup and I'll clean them up."

"It's alright, you can go ahead."

Li Wanyin admired Chen Shi'an's composure; she guessed that only someone as nonchalant as him could give this video such a refreshing feel.

Li Wanyin picked up her phone, opened the group chat she had just closed, and popped up a message.

Little Echo: [Don't make a sound, the male high school student in the video is at my house, he just finished drinking the sweet soup I made]
[Oh no! Wanyin's been obsessed with boys' high school!]
Ah……

As expected, nobody believes the truth!
