I'm Really a Superstar

Saturday.

Morning.

Dong Shanshan purposely called Zhang Ye to remind him.

Dong Shanshan said: "It's time to leave your house."

Zhang Ye replied: "I know, it's the class reunion, right?"

"I was just afraid that you would forget about it. Alright then."

"I'll be right there."

"See you at the old teaching area, the place where we used to attend classes."

"Got it."

After hanging up, Zhang Ye brushed his teeth and washed his face. Then he got changed.

His mother said, "You're wearing that?"

Zhang Ye laughed and said, "What do you expect me to wear?"

"I've already found something for you." His mother took out a suit.

Zhang Ye sighed, "I'm only going there to visit my teachers and old classmates. It's not like I'm taking part in the school reopening ceremony, so why would I wear something that grand? Whatever, I'm leaving."

…

At 9 in the morning.

At the main entrance of Media College.

It was not the first day of school yet as official classes would begin a few days later. But there were quite a number of students starting to return back to school from their hometowns. Students with their luggage could be seen all around. They would break out into chatter and jokes whenever they bumped into fellow classmates along the way.

"Where did you go for the summer holidays?"

"I went on an overseas trip, what about you?"

"I stayed at home and watched the Olympics."

"I watched it too!"

"Eh, why did they cordon off the main entrance with security tape?"

"Are we not allowed to enter?"

"There's a film crew shooting, so we have to wait."

"Eh? What are they filming?"

"I think it's a movie. I saw Ning Lan just now."

"Wow, where is she? Where is she?"

"We can't go in through the main entrance. Let's take the rear entrance."

Many of the students were stopped at the main entrance. They waited there for some time and were joined by more and more students who had just returned to school. All of them stood there glassy-eyed as they waited to be allowed back into the school. There was hardly anyone who would choose to go by the rear entrance as Media College had a pretty large campus. The main entrance and rear entrance were basically at opposite ends of the school, so getting there would take at least 25 minutes. Further, most of the students were lugging around large and small bags filled with their belongings.

On the opposite side of the road.

Yu Yingyi was walking over with a young man.

All of a sudden, a car pulled up beside them. The car window came down to reveal Zhang Ye in a pair of sunglasses. "Old Wang?"

Yu Yingyi looked over and said to Old Wang, "See, speak of the devil."

"Zhang Ye!" Old Wang pointed at him and laughed loudly.

Zhang Ye got out of the car and said, "Where have you been for the past two years?"

Old Wang smiled and said, "Just getting by and supporting my family."

Old Wang was also classmates with Zhang Ye and the others. Back then, his older looks earned him the nickname of Old Wang among their classmates. After calling him that for so many years, Zhang Ye had forgotten his real name.

Another person headed toward them.

"Yo, who's this we have here?" A rather pretty woman walked over gracefully.

Yu Yingyi said in surprise, "Aiyo, Xiaoqian."

Xiaoqian waved at them. "Yingyi, Zhang Ye, Old Wang, long time no see."

Old Wang had wooed Xiaoqian back when they were still attending university. When he saw her, his eyes immediately lit up. "Xiaoqian, you totally disappeared after our graduation. What have you been busy with?"

But Yu Yingyi, who had been in contact with her, said, "What does she have to be busy with? She's leading the tai tai 1 life now. After graduation, she worked as a broadcast host for half a year before marrying into a rich family."

"What rich family?" Xiaoqian said helplessly, "Don't talk nonsense, alright? I'm now a full-time housewife taking care of my children every day. It's driving me crazy. See, when I heard that there will be a class reunion, I agreed to it immediately." Then she gave Zhang Ye a long look before saying, "Nice, you've become handsome."

Zhang Ye chuckled and said, "But of course."

Old Wang belly laughed. "He's far more than just handsome. Our Boss Zhang is flourishing now that he's gained a place in the Asian scene."

Xiaoqian was overcome by emotion. "Yeah, who'd have thought that the fellow who was last in our class would turn the entire entertainment industry upside down in these past two years. Honestly, if you had asked me who would be able to make it amongst those of us in our class, I would have thought that it would be Shanshan, Wang He, or maybe even you, Old Wang. But as for Zhang Ye…I wouldn't have freaking believed it at all." She went over and pinched his arm and touched his face. "Just what steroids are you on?"

Having not met up in several years, everyone was teasing each other the moment they met again.

Suddenly, a barrage of scolding voices came from the school entrance!

Zhang Ye looked over, "Eh?"

Xiaoqian and Old Wang also looked over. "What's the matter?"

"They're doing some filming over there?" Yu Yingyi said.

There were two students over there who seemed to have taken some pictures with their phones. As a result, a staff member from the film crew went over and pointed at them while berating, "What are you all doing? Can't you see what's written on the sign? No photography!"

One of the female students meekly said, "We didn't take any pictures."

"Hand over your phones!" the film crew staff member said with a dark look.

A middle-aged woman from the film crew added, "Don't stand around here watching. Look away, we're filming right now."

It looked like the cameras had stopped rolling over there.

Ning Lan was seated in the break area.

The director and several of the main cast members looked like they were discussing their script.

When a few of the students saw that, they grabbed their luggage and prepared to enter the school gate.

The same person from the film crew immediately pointed at them and gave them a hard look. "What are you all doing! We're filming, can't you tell! All of you, wait there! Who allowed you to come in!"

A student said, "But didn't the cameras stop rolling?"

"Who told you that? Are you the director?" The film crew staff member was speaking very rudely.

Another student pointed at the school and said, "But the director and actors are resting. We've been waiting here for an hour."

A person from the film crew who looked to be the assistant director came over at this time. He shouted, "Go around to the rear entrance and stop crowding around here watching! Use the rear entrance!"

"But our dorms are right in the front."

"The rear entrance is too far away."

"You've stopped filming, so why can't we go in?"

"How can you be so rude?"

"We're just trying to return to school, is there anything wrong with that?"

"Yeah, we've been waiting for an hour too."

The students were all muttering now.

Some of the parents who had sent their children back to school also started pointing at them.

The assistant director said loudly, "I'll repeat this again! We're filming right now. No unauthorized personnel will be allowed in. Don't you know how to follow the rules? It's not like there's only one entrance to the school!"

The students and their parents were very unhappy about this!

At this moment, Zhang Ye and his classmates walked over!

From within the crowd, Zhang Ye's voice resounded, "Just go in this way! Let's see who tries to stop us!"

Yu Yingyi was startled!

Xiaoqian hurriedly tried to pull him back but was unsuccessful in doing so!

The Media College students were all startled and turned around to have a look!

The students' parents also looked over in shock!

The film crew's assistant director and staff member were angered. Who's that? Who's so audacious? They immediately looked around to see who shouted. Then they were stunned!

A distance away.

Ning Lan, who was seated under a sunshade, narrowed her eyes.

The male lead of the film, a B-list celebrity named Zeng Wei, frowned. "Why are they arguing over there?"

The female supporting actress looked over to the school gate. "Whose voice was that? It sounds so aggressive? How dare someone try to trespass into the filming location. Who do they think they are?"

Ning Lan blinked. "I have an ominous feeling about this."

Zeng Wei was taken aback. "Sister Ning, what's the matter?"

Ning Lan said helplessly, "That voice, why does it sound so familiar?"
