The School Beauty Became My Live-in Maid to Pay Off Her Debts-Chapter 160: About the Future

Let’s rewind time a bit.

That morning, as Lingmeng just boarded the bus, Su Wan was walking from her dorm to the classroom.

She was dressed in her usual attire, a sweatshirt and jeans combo, never wearing skirts unless she was going to hang out with Lin Shuang.

Despite such everyday clothes, despite being at an Art College where beauties abounded...

Su Wan was still the most radiant one among the crowd; it was hard not to have one’s gaze linger on her with just a glance.

It even felt like she brightened the whole street by a notch.

When Lin Shuang wasn’t by her side, Su Wan always had the demeanor of an ice queen.

This effectively minimized the gazes that came her way.

But recently... even this tactic wasn’t working as well.

After the duet with Lin Shuang at the bar, singing "Confession Balloon"...

Su Wan’s popularity as the goddess of the Art College might have soared as high as Mount Everest.

Everyone had to look up at this world’s highest peak—cold yet dazzling, all wishing for a glimpse of her beauty.

Su Wan’s only thought was: It’s all Lin Dasha’s fault!

He absolutely owes her several barbeque meals to make up for it!

Finally, she arrived at the classroom and sat down, ready to attend a lesson on movie appreciation.

Today’s speaker was a producer from a renowned film and television company in Huai City, specially invited by the college, who was also a somewhat famous director.

After class began, the female director led the students in a deep analysis of an award-winning film that was released last year.

She meticulously went over a magnificent segment of the film, replaying it frame by frame, dissecting it in-depth.

She explained the highlights of each shot, scene arrangement, camera work, and even aspects like editing and music to the students.

This method of film appreciation is also commonly known as "frame by frame analysis."

In the packed classroom, where not even the back row or aisle was empty, the sound of students’ "shush shush shush" note-taking could be heard.

At the most exciting parts, bursts of applause erupted in the classroom.

Listening to this kind of teacher was truly a pleasure.

It’s a pity that class time was too short; many students were left wanting more.

After class, a long queue formed in front of the lectern, with everyone having questions to ask.

Su Wan’s notes spanned several pages, and after arranging them, she waited for the students in front of her to finish their inquiries, as she too had questions she wished to discuss with the female director.

"Teacher Ren, do you still have a moment?" asked Su Wan.

The director, named Ren Hongyu, had just removed her glasses but quickly put them back on upon seeing Su Wan in front of the lectern, with a kindly smile on her face.

"I have time! I love you eager young people! Feel free to ask me anything!" she said.

Su Wan smiled sweetly, "Then I’ll bother you for a bit, Teacher Ren~"

If Lin Shuang were here to see Wanwan’s obedient smile, he would surely grab her shoulders and shake them vigorously: Who are you! Spit out my Wanwan! Wanwan can’t be this well-behaved!

However, lately, Lin Shuang had also discovered the switch to make this childhood friend of his behave: just nibble on her for a while, and she would become obedient.

After asking her questions, Su Wan walked out of the classroom with Teacher Ren.

Teacher Ren spoke with a smile, "Su Wan, I’ve taught your class a few times now, and I feel like you’re quite interested in film arts, aren’t you?"

"Yes, Teacher," she replied.

Su Wan carried her "Film Art" textbook walking next to the teacher, at this moment like a well-behaved and studious student, "The movie you talked about today, I’ve seen it many times, and I think many of the shot compositions and the acting are really spectacular."

Upon reaching the ground floor, Teacher Ren didn’t head for the parking lot; instead, she followed Su Wan and continued the conversation.

"If you’re interested, that’s wonderful."

This middle-aged female director had a sparkle in her eyes, as if she’d discovered a treasure, "You see, recently I’ve been conceptualizing a new film and have been struggling to find the right actress for it."

She continued, "The first time I came here to teach and saw you, I felt like the female character in my head came to life. You even surpass the character in my imagination; you’re even more perfect."

In fact, the reason Director Ren Hongyu took time out of her busy schedule to teach a few classes at Huai University of Arts was that she had her eye on Su Wan.

She had spent the duration of these classes, from a director’s viewpoint, observing whether she had the potential to become an actress.

And now, she had come to a conclusion: Su Wan could not only become an actress, but there was also a very good chance she could grow to be an excellent one.

"So, how about it, Su Wan? Are you interested in acting in my movie?"

Suddenly receiving an invitation from a well-known domestic director left Su Wan feeling flattered but quickly composed herself.

"Teacher Ren, thank you for the invitation, but please allow me some time to think it over."

Ren Hongyu wasn’t surprised, "No problem, this is a project I’ve been preparing with dedication for a long time, and there’s still a while before we start shooting, so you can take your time to consider."

Seeing such a renowned director with such a humble and respectful demeanor made Su Wan feel a bit embarrassed.

"I will give you an answer as soon as possible, Teacher Ren."

Ren Hongyu waved her hand dismissively, "No worries, child, everyone has their own life plans. If you don’t want to deviate from your original path, I completely understand; there’s nothing wrong with that."

Her tone was very sincere, "If you have been considering a career in the film industry, then I hope you will seriously think about my offer. No one is more suitable for this role than you; I hope to use this film to put a perfect ending to my directing career..."

"Teacher Ren, are you planning to retire?"

Ren Hongyu smiled warmly, "I’m getting older, and the future belongs to you young people!"

She bid farewell to Su Wan, "Alright, take your time to think about it, no pressure. I’ll still come to teach your class next week."

After parting ways with Ren Hongyu, Su Wan subconsciously wanted to discuss this matter with Lin Shuang.

She felt like rushing to his house and talking to him face to face.

But he’s on a business trip in Hai City right now...

Better wait until he’s back.

Su Wan hugged her textbook, making her way back to the dorm.

About future plans...

Actually, she had never thought too much about the future.

Or rather, she really only had one plan for her future.

And that was to always be with Lin Shuang.

Every future she imagined was built upon this foundation.

They must always remain childhood sweethearts.

Based on this, it’s not that she hadn’t thought about pursuing a career in the film industry after graduation.

After all, she had to find a job—ah, now that Lin Dasha is so wealthy, maybe she should just cling to his coattails.

Su Wan chuckled lightly and shook her head.

There was no one in the dorm today, as Fu Dalian and Yang Deyou had gone out to restock milk tea supplies.

Su Wan decided to dine alone at a new barbecue restaurant that had recently opened nearby.

Nothing that can’t be solved with a good barbecue meal~
