The career system at Huayu Entertainment is too gentlemanly.

Beijing Film Academy, student playground.

Chen Yan and Gao Ye were taking a walk around the playground.

"Aren't you going for a run tonight?" Gao Ye asked playfully as she walked backward with her hands behind her back.

Chen Yan smiled and said, "I'll walk with you for a while before we run."

Gao Ye's face flushed slightly, and she turned her head away from Chen Yan's eyes, which were more affectionate than a dog's.

She said, slightly embarrassed, "You look like you've lost a little weight."

Chen Yan does look much thinner; it's because the system rewarded him with a centimeter of height today.

Chen Yan laughed, "You'll lose weight quickly, thirty pounds in a month!"

"Thirty pounds?! Why are you in such a hurry?" Gao Ye asked with concern, "Don't ruin your health."

Chen Yan showed off his biceps and said, "I'm in great shape."

Even if you're healthy, you can't lose weight like this.

"I'm afraid my senior will look down on me."

"I didn't!"

The two chatted happily, but passersby couldn't help but glance at them a few more times.

The pairing of Gao Ye and Chen Yan is like Beauty and the Beast.

Chen Yan said with a smile, "Senior, I'm going for a run. I'm trying to lose weight quickly, otherwise I'll feel embarrassed to walk with you."

"Okay, go ahead, I'm going back to my dorm too."

"Okay, bye-bye."

After Chen Yan finished speaking, he started running laps, and it took him a full hour to get back to his dormitory.

When Chen Yan returned to the dormitory, he found that his other roommates had all arrived.

The system still popped up a message telling him to bully his roommate.

Chen Yan ignored the system, greeted her new roommate, and went to take a shower.

After I finished washing up, I saw Zhang Ruoyun at the door.

Chen Yan said with a smile, "What are you standing here for? Did you get into a fight with them?"

"How could that be? They wouldn't dare mess with me." Zhang Ruoyun put her hands in her pockets, her face full of defiance.

Chen Yan's lips twitched. When will this guy's rebellious phase end?

He was just about to go back when Zhang Ruoyun reached out and grabbed him.

He whispered, "I'll tell you a secret, but don't tell anyone else."

"What secret?" Chen Yan's eyes lit up with gossip.

Zhang Ruoyun whispered, "When I got home tonight, my dad told me that they're changing the cast for Dream of the Red Chamber and are planning to recast the roles. They might even come to the school to audition."

Chen Yan, who had initially thought there was some juicy gossip to be had, instantly lost interest.

He knew about the change of actors in Dream of the Red Chamber.

Hu Mei should be replaced by Li Shaohong.

Old women are being traded for other old women; none of them are easy to deal with!

As for recasting, that's an even bigger trap!

The scandalous gossip surrounding the Twelve Beauties of the Dream of the Red Chamber involved a significant money-for-sex transaction.

New actors are jumping into a fire pit!

If Chen Yan remembered correctly, the investor was an old woman, the director was an old woman, and the producer was also an old woman.

The handsome young man will definitely get played with all sorts of times once he joins the crew!

However, Chen Yan has never been afraid of challenges!

Give it a try; riding the wave of popularity wouldn't be bad.

Even if they don't end up acting, they can still gain a little fame.

Seeing that Chen Yan was silent, Zhang Ruoyun assumed that he was still processing the news.

So he patted Chen Yan on the shoulder and said, "You'd better lose weight these next few days and get ready."

Chen Yan laughed and said, "Okay, I'll try my best. Do you think you'll be selected? Did your dad pull some strings for you?"

Zhang Ruoyun's expression changed slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "My dad wants me to try it myself."

Chen Yan could tell he was lying at a glance, but she didn't call him out on it.

For a project like the Red Mansion, Zhang Ruoyun's father's connections weren't enough to pull strings.

Trying to get in through connections is less effective than trying your luck as a newcomer.

If Chen Yan remembered correctly, Li Shaohong took a liking to Yang Yang when he went to the PLA Academy of Arts to select people.

He suddenly remembered his classmate Kan Qingzi, who seemed to have also been chosen by Li Shaohong.

However, he couldn't remember what roles Kan Qingzi had played.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Chen Yan and Zhang Ruoyun went back to their dormitory.

Back in her dorm, Chen Yan noticed that she had far fewer tissues than usual.

He thought of the system's bullying mission and immediately came up with a reason to take advantage of it.

But before he could even lose his temper, he heard Zhang Ruoyun arguing with her roommate behind him.

"Who told you to step on my bed! It's filthy!"

When Chen Yan turned around, he found that one of his roommates on the upper bunk had one foot on Zhang Ruoyun's bed.

The roommate climbed halfway up and then came down, saying somewhat indignantly, "I just stepped on it by accident, there's no need to make a fuss about it, I wasn't wearing shoes."

Zhang Ruoyun said angrily, "Was that an accident? You stepped on my pillow!"

"I'm sorry, okay!" the person said, then muttered something else under their breath, sounding a bit affected.

Zhang Ruoyun couldn't stand it anymore and pushed him.

"Who the hell are you calling pretentious?!"

The new roommate got excited after being pushed and immediately grabbed Zhang Ruoyun, wanting to wrestle.

The other new roommates quickly tried to mediate the fight.

Chen Yan, however, leaned against the table with a smile, watching the show.

He only went to break them up after they both fell to the ground while embracing.

He grabbed a person by the neck with one hand and pried them apart.

If it weren't for the system rewarding him with longer fingers today, he really wouldn't have been able to hold it.

After separating the two, Chen Yan casually pushed his new roommate aside, causing him to crash onto the bed with a loud bang.

Seeing Chen Yan help her, Zhang Ruoyun became even more excited and raised her foot to kick him.

Chen Yan pretended not to have stopped her, and Zhang Ruoyun kicked her new roommate.

The new roommate reacted and tried to fight back, but Chen Yan grabbed his chest and pinned him against the bed frame.

"Don't move! Stop fighting!"

The man started cursing in anger, and Chen Yan didn't tolerate it, so he slapped him across the face.

The man was completely stunned by the slap and stared blankly at Chen Yan.

Chen Yan then released his grip and looked at his other roommates, saying, "You guys need to be more careful in the dorm from now on, and don't touch other people's things!"

Seeing how ruthless Chen Yan was, none of the others said a word in rebuttal.

After all, it doesn't taste good.

Zhang Ruoyun got even more excited, and her mouth emitted a chorus of birdsong and fragrant flowers.

Chen Yan chuckled and released the other person, focusing his attention on the system rewards.

[Ding~ Successfully intimidated your new roommate! Reward: 5% increase in arm strength!]

Chen Yan shook his hands and felt that his strength had increased considerably.

If you're doing anaerobic exercise now, you should do more sets.

Increase the training intensity tomorrow!

After the little farce in the dormitory ended, everyone lay on their beds without saying a word.

Chen Yan didn't care about the atmosphere in the dormitory; it was even more peaceful with no one talking.

The students in vocational college classes are a mixed bag, and many of them are not recent high school graduates.

The overall quality is really not high.

After a good night's sleep, Chen Yanmei still got up early the next day to exercise.

He has been exercising for two days and has lost a significant amount of weight.

When you first start exercising, the most noticeable effect is weight loss.

Chen Yan has lost more than five pounds in two days, and her belly has become noticeably smaller.

After Chen Yan finished running on the playground, he ran into Chu Yuxun, who came to deliver water.

"Thank you for the water. Let me treat you to breakfast."

Chu Yuxun was secretly delighted, then asked curiously, "Aren't you on a diet?"

"Then you also need to supplement your protein intake."

"oh oh."

Chu Yuxun happily followed Chen Yan to the cafeteria.

Chen Yan was sweating profusely after finishing his workout.

His body odor, enhanced by the system, became more pronounced.

Chu Yuxun was getting high from following behind him.

Chen Yan naturally noticed this, but there was nothing he could do about it.

He felt he couldn't get rid of Chu Yuxun.

This girl will definitely become more and more addicted!

The system misled me!

We need to find something for Chu Yuxun to do to distract her!

Thinking of the Dream of the Red Chamber, he slowed his pace and said to her, "The Dream of the Red Chamber needs to recast its roles. They will be coming to the school to select people in a while, so you should prepare in the meantime."

Chu Yuxun asked curiously, "Really? Wasn't the casting already finalized?"

"It's true, they changed directors, so they recast the roles."

"They changed directors?!"

Chu Yuxun was very surprised, but even more surprised that Chen Yan knew such inside information.

She suddenly thought of something, her face flushed, and her gaze towards Chen Yan became even more tender.

She felt that Chen Yan must have feelings for her to tell her such inside information!

This is love~

Chen Yan was unaware that Chu Yuxun was frantically increasing her interest rate in her mind, and was still earnestly instructing her to hurry up and prepare her talent performance.

In short, go ahead and focus on your career, and stop bothering me.

[Ding~ Detected host actively approaching the yandere, evil female classmate. The blond-haired guy's will cannot be taken away!]

Chen Yan: ? ? ? What the hell is this?!

Before he could react, the system reward notification sounded!

[Bonus: 5% increased sprint speed! Conquer all yanderes with the fiercest sprint!]

Chen Yan: Emmm... System, I love you!
