Breakthrough in Relationship with Gao Yuanyuan: Taking the College Entrance Examination

After Han Shanping left the crew, Zhou Yan and others officially began filming.

During his free time, Zhou Yan entered the other party's phone number into his own phone.

This can be developed into your personal network later.

The filming of "Beijing Bicycle" was unusually slow.

Wang Xiaoshuai's quality requirements for this film reached an almost obsessive level.

From framing to color, we strive for perfection.

Sometimes we can't even shoot a few shots in a day.

It was filmed even slower than the sequel to Journey to the West.

This was arguably the slowest film crew Zhou Yan had ever encountered.

However, there were also advantages. Zhou Yan had much more time to write and could also date and connect with Gao Yuanyuan.

Zhou Yan even brought her laptop to the film set, writing in her spare time and getting into character when she started acting.

The progress of "The Seven Heroes of China" (Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Seven Heroes) has been greatly accelerated.

Zhou Yan estimated that the manuscript would definitely be completed before July.

On set, the relationship between Zhou Yan and Gao Yuanyuan quickly blossomed.

From holding hands at the beginning, to kissing cheeks, and then to kissing.

Zhou Yan gradually became more and more aggressive.

Gao Yuanyuan feigned reluctance while constantly pulling at the object of her advances.

At the end of June, Zhou Yan stretched.

"Finally finished writing," Zhou Yan said with a sigh of relief.

The writing of "The Seven Heroes of China" began in January and was finally completed after half a year.

Traditional martial arts novels are not very long; even classic works like "The Return of the Condor Heroes" are only around a million words long.

The word count of "The Seven Heroes of China" is similar to that of "The Return of the Condor Heroes," both around one million words.

Zhou Yan did not set a word count target for himself. He wrote more when he had more time and less when he had less time. Finally, he finished writing it all today.

"Can't rest yet?" Zhou Yan rubbed his temples.

I plan to start writing the fourth part of the "Stormy Jianghu" series, "Sword Rain Jianghu," right after the college entrance exam!

This is a short story, about 100,000 words long, similar to Jin Yong's "The Snowy Mountain Fox".

However, Zhou Yan plans to write a few side stories after finishing the ten-part series, making the world of "Storm and Rain" even more complete.

"Painting Rivers and Lakes" is one of the proposed titles.

(Given the readers' fondness for "Painting Rivers and Lakes", this has been added as a side story titled "The Stormy Rivers and Lakes".)

That evening, Zhou Yan invited Gao Yuanyuan out under the pretext of rehearsing a scene.

Gao Yuanyuan seemed to sense something, but she did not refuse and went out with Zhou Yan.

At first, things were fine; Zhou Yan was indeed acting with Gao Yuanyuan.

But later on, the acting began to change.

"Yuanyuan," Zhou Yan hugged Gao Yuanyuan.

"Hmm?" Gao Yuanyuan lowered her head shyly.

Zhou Yan reached out and lifted Gao Yuanyuan's chin.

Eyes facing each other.

Gazes tenderly.

Zhou Yan looked at Gao Yuanyuan's exquisite and flawless face, her bright eyes shining like jewels, her eyebrows like distant mountains, and her skin like solidified cream.

Her thin, cherry-like lips were coated with lipstick, making them look watery and moisturized.

The teeth are hidden within, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

"Gulp," Zhou Yan felt his mouth was dry and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.

Gao Yuanyuan was also staring at Zhou Yan. He stood tall and elegant, with a smile as bright as the moon in her arms. His handsome face captivated her.

Zhou Yan could no longer control himself and kissed Gao Yuanyuan.

Do you know what jelly tastes like?

It's more bouncy, softer, and sweeter than jelly.

Gao Yuanyuan raised her head high, wrapped her arms around Zhou Yan's neck, and pulled him down forcefully.

Zhou Yan bent over and closed his eyes tightly.

After an unknown amount of time, the two of them released each other, panting heavily, their breathing becoming rapid.

Zhou Yan and Gao Yuanyuan looked at each other, their desires undisguised.

No one spoke.

it is more than words.

The two were tearing at each other, but soon they were completely honest with each other!

The rest is self-evident; everything will fall into place naturally.

Zhou Yan and Gao Yuanyuan spent a considerable amount of time together.

We met last September, and now it's the end of May. In a few months, it will be a year since then.

During this period, although Zhou Yan and Gao Yuanyuan both went to the film set to film, they never lost contact with each other.

This time, Zhou Yan didn't hesitate and took the initiative.

The transformation in their relationship also brought the two of them closer together.

To be precise, it's Gao Yuanyuan.

After becoming Zhou Yan's woman, Gao Yuanyuan became even more dependent on him, clinging tightly to his arms.

Zhou Yan held Gao Yuanyuan in his arms, feeling the warmth of her body.

"You're about to take the college entrance exam, right?" Gao Yuanyuan wasn't sleepy at all, and the two chatted.

"July 7th," Zhou Yan's examination admission ticket has already been printed out.

In 2000, the national unified college entrance examination time had not yet been adjusted and continued the tradition since 1979, taking place every July.

Until 2003, the college entrance examination was officially moved to June, and it has remained so ever since.

July is almost the hottest month, which is extremely challenging for one's mindset.

"So you're going back to your hometown then?"

"Yes," Zhou Yan said, "I'm going to take the college entrance exam in my hometown."

"Do you want me to come with you?" Gao Yuanyuan looked at Zhou Yan expectantly.

"If you'd like, of course you can," Zhou Yan said without refusing.

At this time, Fan Binbin was still on set and definitely wouldn't be able to meet Gao Yuanyuan.

"Let's forget it, don't let it affect your exam," Gao Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment, but still decided not to go.

It's not that I don't want to, but I'm afraid it will affect Zhou Yan's performance.

After all, this is the college entrance examination, not a regular exam.

If Zhou Yan underperforms because of my influence, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.

"Alright," Zhou Yan said, not insisting.

On July 4th, Zhou Yan and the film crew took leave and returned to Jeju.

On July 5th, just like in his previous life, Zhou Yan booked a room at a hotel near the examination hall.

He plans to stay here for a few days.

As for meals, he chose restaurants around the hotel.

On July 6th, Zhou Yan began to look around the examination venue and found his classroom.

The National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) officially began on July 7th.

In 2000, the college entrance examination in eastern Shandong adopted the "3+2" model, with liberal arts subjects including Chinese, mathematics, foreign language, history, and politics.

Moreover, it adopts a scoring system with a maximum score of 900 points.

This summer is exceptionally hot and humid; the sun is like a giant furnace, scorching the earth.

Some people were sweating profusely.

Some people had a pale complexion.

Zhou Yan sat at the examination table, writing continuously.

The content was exactly the same as in the previous life; the essay itself remained unchanged.

Zhou Yan was well-prepared and wrote with divine inspiration.

After dinner, Zhou Yan took a nap in the hotel to clear his mind and recharge.

At 2:30 p.m., Zhou Yan went to the examination room.

The second exam, politics, wasn't too difficult for him either.

In the evening, Zhou Yan called Fan Binbin, Gao Yuanyuan, Jia Jingwen, and her parents for a brief chat.

Everyone knew that Zhou Yan needed to rest, so they didn't disturb him too much.

Zhou Yan goes to bed early, falling asleep by 10 pm.

The math exam is on the morning of July 8th, and the history exam is on the afternoon.

The math exam was unchanged from his previous life, and Zhou Yan's answers were almost identical.

Why do I say almost?

Since he knew the answers to a few questions, he naturally changed them to the correct ones.

The afternoon history section was the easiest; I finished answering the questions without wasting much time.

The English exam on July 9th will be somewhat difficult; listening and grammar are his weak points, but passing will definitely not be a problem.

The moment Zhou Yan stepped out of the examination room, she felt completely relaxed.

"Next, I just have to wait for the college entrance exam results," Zhou Yan said. He returned to the hotel, packed his personal belongings, checked out at the front desk, and finally returned to his hometown.
