She was not as calm as she appeared.

It was a gamble for her.

Moreover, she did not have much confidence in winning the gamble. She was unsure whether she could get what she wanted at last.

Tang Li was on her way back to the art college when she met with the yellow-haired guy by the road. He was having kebab and he saw her too. His chewing slowed as he asked her, “Why are you looking at me? Haven’t you seen rich kid eating at a hawker store by the road before?”

It took all kinds of people to make the world. There were indeed a lot of weird people.

Tang Li did not want to annoy him or cause a conflict. She turned and walked away from him.

However, the yellow-haired guy pursued after her. He was holding mutton kebabs in both of his hands. “Are you ignoring me? That’s good. You have successfully intrigued me!”

Tang Li was speechless.

She stopped walking and stared at the yellow-haired guy. “You’re blocking the road.”

She realized that the yellow hair guy was just a little bit peculiar but his family background might be good. Moreover, she had new resolutions now. She was unwilling to annoy anybody with any valid reason. She took a deep breath slowly and explained to him calmly, “I am not ignoring you. I’m in a rush. I need to return to the college now.”

“Is that so?”

The guy looked at her doubtfully.

It was just like coaxing a big kid. Tang Li replied solemnly while nodding, “Yes.”

“That’s fine.” The guy bit his lower lip and appeared quite generous with her. He seemed like he was not going to be angry at her. “Go ahead if you’re busy.”

The man who was selling the kebab rushed after the yellow-haired guy when Tang Li left him. “How dare you eat for free? You’d have gotten away if I have not realized it sooner!”

“Who was going to run away? It’s just around thirty dollars. It’s not even enough for me to buy a cup of coffee.”

Fu Si touched his pocket when he said that.

He was stunned.

Oh my goodness! He had forgotten to bring his wallet!

Tang Li returned to the art college and went to buy some food at the canteen.

She scanned her student card on the card reader and realized that she had only two dollars and three pennies in it. Then, she took out her purse from her bag and gave it to the woman at the canteen. She smiled softly at her. “I’ll pay by cash.”

She then returned to her hostel.

Tang Li put her food on the desk and started counting the amount of money she had.

She deposited the money that she had gotten from Ji Ming into the bank.

It was because she knew that Yu Guowen would continue to make it difficult for her to study in the art college as long as he was there. Even if she managed to pay the sponsorship fee, Yu Guowen would still find other ways to come at her.

So, it was no longer important to pay the sponsorship fee anymore.

Moreover, her right to receive the scholarship had been taken away. She needed money to support her life in the college from now on.

Wu Xuehan came to visit her at four in the afternoon.

She was woken up from her nap by a quick knock on the door.

Tang Li opened the door and Wu Xuehan came rushing in. “Did you know, Ah Li? There’s a little blue-haired monster who went and auditioned for the role of the second heroine for the film, ‘Original Sin’? Now, the students from First Film Academy treat it as a challenge from our college. They are arguing with us now on the internet!”

A little blue hair monster? Tang Li was speechless.

At the same time in the Li family.

“I told you I don’t want to take up the role of a killer.” Li Yuan’er threw the pillow onto the sofa. Her cute face was filled with impatience. “I’m a popular star now. Why should I go and take up a difficult role like that? What if the spectators enjoy that movie and think that I’m a crazy woman?”

Li Yuan’er’s agent, Sister Wen, put her arms around her. “Baby, why would you think like that?”

Li Yuan’er pouted. “Moreover, it’s just the role of a second heroine. I have always been the lead actress in all of the movies I was in. They always ask me to be the lead actress. Now, you are suddenly asking me to be the second heroine who is also a villain. If I took up that role, I just don’t know how the others would sneer at me.”
