That night, Lian Qing still couldn't eat the roast chicken
wings and mutton kebabs.
After Sister Sha got off work, he followed her to the hotel
arranged by the crew, listened to her talk for a long time, and then went back
to his room to sleep with regret.
Sister Sha looked at his lost back and felt her mood
brighten. This child actually had a serious attitude toward learning and was smart.
He could *draw inferences from others.

能举一反三 (ju yi fan san): Lit; to raise one and infer three (idiom) – Fig: to deduce many things from one caseThe only bad thing is that he was too fixated on meat. Just a
moment ago, after explaining to him about the play, the child seemed to want to
say something but hesitated, probably still thinking about the midnight snack
she’d talked about.
However, at that time, she was just deliberately teasing
him. Besides, as an actor, she had to be disciplined. If you stay up late, eat
barbecue, and have acne on your face, how can you film?! Besides, the little
monk really ate a lot for dinner. She was worried that if the Little Monk ate
any more food, he would have indigestion. After all, he has just returned to
the secular world, and she didn’t know whether his spleen and stomach could
adapt to eating too much meat at once!
For this reason, she had to act blind for once. But looking
at the lost figure of the child, she almost couldn't help but let him go out to
eat.
What she did not know, however, was that after the Little Monk
returned to his room, he downed a bottle of milk and some dry food. It wasn't
because he was hungry, but he really wanted to have barbecue. If he couldn't
eat it, he could only use these to satisfy his cravings.
The dry food made by the master himself could be kept for
two or three days. It was delicious with the milk given by the director of the
variety show.
The next morning, Lian Qing followed Sister Sha to the production
set. He was watching Sister Sha acting seriously, but suddenly there was an
older woman beside him.
The woman stood in front of him, smiled, and held out her hand: "Hello, I'm Cheng Lan, your manager."
Lian Qing immediately understood, he gently shook his hand
with the other party and withdrew after a touch. Then he smiled and said,
"Hello, I'm Lian Qing."
Cheng Lan smiled, sat down beside him, and talked with him.

She spoke very well and basically hit all the points. In the
face of such people, Lian Qing felt like he was facing the head teacher at
school. He could not help being restrained and tried to speak simply and
clearly.
After a short chat, Sister Sha came over. Cheng Lan went to
chat with her again. She came over shortly and said to Lian Qing, "Come
with me. The teacher you are looking for is coming soon."
Lian QIng looked at Sister Sha helplessly. Seeing her nod,
he followed Cheng Lan.
Sister Sha didn't forget to shout at the back: "Sister Cheng, remember to let him eat lunch or something. He has a big appetite. Furthermore, there must be meat!"
When many people in the cast heard this, they all looked
sideways and *snickered.
Show/Hide Note
*lit: laugh up one's sleeveLian Qing blushed and followed Sister Cheng closely. He definitely
did not eat a lot.
Sister Cheng quickly brought Lian Qing back to the hotel
where a middle-aged man had been waiting for him.
Sister Cheng asked Lian Qing to call him teacher. Lian Qing
called out respectfully. The middle-aged man nodded without superfluous words and
directly started the class.
For three days in a row, Lian Qing devoted himself to
learning. Whenever the teacher was free, he went to class. If he had no time,
he would go to the film crew to see Sister Sha acting. Occasionally, he was
rarely free, he did not forget to watch some movies to learn according to what
the teacher instructed.
Seeing how serious he was, Sister Sha could not help
sighing: "Were you so serious about the college entrance
examination?"
Lian Qing shook his head and said, "I have always been
very serious about going to school. Because my master is not rich, I have to
get a scholarship to lighten his burden."
"You've also won a scholarship!" Sister Sha
sighed. "As it turns out, you’re a learning bully. What an outstanding Little
Monk!"
Cheng Lan frowned at the side: "Why didn't you go to
college when you studied so hard?"
Hearing the words, Lian Qing’s expression became dark. He
was slightly bitter and astringent, "On the day of the college entrance
examination, I saved a man on my way down the mountain to school. I ran late after
I sent him to the hospital. On the way back to the examination hall, I was too
anxious and was accidentally hit by a car, so I lost consciousness..."

"I... missed a whole day of examinations. I did the
exam the next day, but the total scores of those two subjects together are not
enough for me to go to a good school..."
Even two years later, Lian Qing still felt bitter when he
mentioned it again. He could not make up for the two points of the total score in
that year, and the tuition fees of those slightly better colleges were too
high.
He was injured and couldn't go to work during the summer
vacation. There was no income in the temple, and the master had no money, so he
had to give up college and return to the temple to become a monk.
Sister Sha and Cheng Lan were speechless, they didn't expect
such a bloody thing to have happened to the little monk.
Sister Sha couldn't help asking, "Do you regret it? You
saved someone, at the expense of missing the college entrance exam..."
Lian Qing shook his head and said, "Monks are merciful.
Moreover, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. I don't
regret it."
His eyes were clear and firm. Although sad, he did not
regret it.

Sister Sha gave him a thumbs up: *"Attaboy!"

contacted the person you saved?"
Lian Qing shook his head: "After I sent him to the
hospital, I hurried back to the examination hall. I didn't even see his face
clearly!"
"Well..." Cheng Lan was a little disappointed. She
thought it would be a hype point.
Nowadays, fans have higher and higher requirements for
idols, and Lin Qing had never been to college, which may be brought up sooner
or later. But if he missed the university because of saving others, it was *another
cup of tea.
Show/Hide Note
*cup of tea – something that is in accordance with one’s liking and preferences. In this context, the fact that Little Monk did not go to university is a negative point but his saving someone being the cause changes everything, and his lack of a university education actually becomes something the fans like.What a pity, Lian Qing did not contact the man. Without a
witness’s testimony, this matter is easy to be pointed out as speculation by
unscrupulous means and talking rubbish.
The atmosphere was a little gloomy for a moment. Sister Sha
hurriedly took out her mobile phone and said with a smile, "Oh that’s
right, Little Monk, haven't you been on Weibo these days? It seems you haven't followed
me yet!"
When Lian Qing realized it, he said, "I forgot... Furthermore,
Brother Chengyi, I didn't pay attention to him either!"
Sister Sha *could not laugh or cry: "You’re done for.
Zhao Chengyi must have exploded. He kept urging you the whole time before
leaving to remember to follow him!"
Show/Hide Note
*not to know whether to laugh or cry (idiom) - both funny and extremely embarrassing; between laughter and tearsLian Qing obviously remembered this incident, he somewhat
panicky started Weibo and logged in.
The number of Weibo mailboxes and comments was very large. Looking
through them, the content was virtually the same.
[The little monk is so cute, hug]
[Hello, Monk Lian Qing]
[Little monk, the barbecue is delicious right~!]
[I envy that you can eat the meat roasted by Da Cheng zi. Ah
ah ah]
[Little monk, please pay close attention to Da Cheng zi, he’s
gone mad # laughing and crying #]
[The little monk is so good-looking. Are all the monks in
your temple so good-looking?]
……
Lian Qing looked at Sister Sha and Cheng Lan in bewilderment.
"What can I do if I can't reply?" It was too much to see.
"Well, let's not look at it first. Besides, no star
will reply to the fans' messages every single time. If you really reply
seriously, you won’t need to do anything all day." Sister Sha said,
pointing to her mobile phone, "You'd better follow Zhao Chengyi ba, he’s
really lost his mind. The Weibo account is his name, you can search for
it."
Lian Qing hurriedly searched for it. After searching, he
sought the ‘follow’ section for a long time - the current Weibo was not the
same as the one he used two years ago and had gone through several changes.
After following, he started to read Zhao Chengyi's Weibo.
The top Weibo mentioned Lian Qing.

attention to me? Little liar @ Monk Lian Qing]

follow me?!]
[Zhao Chengyi V: If it were not for the fact you’ve also not
followed Sister Sha @ Shaman V, I would have accused you of sexism!]
[Zhao Chengyi V: The fourth day has come... Little monk, do
you remember Zhao Chengyi who gave you barbecue? @ Monk Lian Qing]
[Zhao Chengyi V: Let me tell you, today is the deadline I
give you! If you don't follow me again, I won't give you barbecue! Do you still
want to eat meat? @ Monk Lian Qing]

Lian Qing checked the comment section and was met with a
screen of "hahaha".

……
Lian Qing silently replied on Zhao Chengyi's top Weibo:
[followed.]
Then he turned to the Weibo that mentioned barbecue and
replied: [I remember. I still want to eat barbecue.]
Zhao Chengyi had not yet found these comments, but some
netizens had found it.
[Surprise the Lord and *grab a handful!]
