The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

In front of Qingxue’s exam site, thousands of parents stood outside the examination hall, eagerly awaiting and appearing more nervous than the students inside.

Shen Qiu, a reporter from Spring City TV, accompanied by a cameraman, was searching for interview subjects everywhere.

Shen Qiu was a reporter for the social news section of the city TV station.

During the college entrance examination these past few days, she felt that even the criminals had been relatively well-behaved, and society was unusually harmonious.

There was hardly any material worth reporting.

Shen Qiu decided to take her team outside the exam site to see if there were any valuable news stories to cover.

She interviewed several parents in succession, and her expression became more and more exhausted.

“This won’t do. It all feels too ordinary. If we air these interviews, the ratings will be low.”

In reality, the interviews with the parents were quite sincere. Some were anxious about their children’s exams. Some were excited because they believed their children would perform exceptionally well, and others were relieved that their children were finally taking the college entrance examination.

However, all of these stories lacked the sensational elements.

Every year, reporters would come here to conduct interviews, and the audience had seen it all before.

Shen Qiu felt that something was still missing. Her program’s ratings had been declining recently. The pressure was already very high.

She was becoming increasingly anxious with the hot weather and unsuccessful interviews.

Just at that moment, a figure caught her eye. Shen Qiu’s eyes lit up.

……

Qi Yun took a taxi from Yizhong, which took quite some time to reach Qingxue’s exam site.

When he arrived, there were still ten minutes left before Qingxue’s exam would be over.

Qi Yun knew that Qingxue, who had always been a well-behaved student, would not hand in her paper early.

He still had time!

Qi Yun breathed a sigh of relief and then noticed a short-haired woman standing before him. Behind her was a cameraman.

“Excuse me, sir. I’m Shen Qiu, a reporter from Spring City TV. Can I ask you a few questions?”

Shen Qiu immediately ran over when she saw Qi Yun. It wasn’t for any particular reason, but she understood by looking at Qi Yun’s appearance.

Most people here were parents, and almost all were in their forties.

Shen Qiu couldn’t help but notice Qi Yun’s tall, handsome, and youthful face.

A handsome guy right in front of her made her feel refreshed all over!

She signaled the cameraman behind her to start filming, even if she couldn’t ask any good questions.

She felt she could boost the ratings by featuring him on TV just by having his face.

“I, Shen Qiu, am an experienced fan of handsome guys! I understand the audience well!”

An interview?

Qi Yun remembered that although there weren’t as many self-media outlets crowding outside the exam site in the future, local media would randomly interview some students or parents outside the exam site.

He didn’t expect to encounter it himself.

“Sure, but I only have ten minutes.” He was still waiting for Qingxue.

“Ten minutes is enough! Can I ask if you’re here to pick up a candidate?”

“Yes.”

“So you’re a family member of the candidate?”

Qi Yun: “Yes.”

“Are you the candidate’s younger brother or older brother?”

“Um… I’m her boyfriend.”

“Boyfriend!”

Shen Qiu felt a pang of envy.

I, Shen Qiu, the blooming flower of Spring City TV, 28 years old and still without a boyfriend, being pressured to get married every year. Now, I see an 18-year-old girl has already taken away a handsome young man. Life is so tough for me!

Qi Yun: “???”

Why did this reporter suddenly stop talking and look at him resentfully?

“Cough.”

The cameraman behind her cleared his throat lightly.

Shen Qiu snapped out of it. Her face turned red as she regained her professional reporter demeanor.

“Then may I ask what results you expect from your girlfriend in this exam?”

“To be honest, I don’t have any expectations. I just hope Qingxue performs normally and reaches her average level.”

Qi Yun replied seriously.

“Have you thought about which university she can get into?”

“University… Jingchen University and Shuimu University would be fine.”

Shen Qiu… Shen Qiu was at a loss for words. Even as a professional reporter, she didn’t know what to say.

Was this what you meant by performing normally? Her average level?

Did you misunderstand the concept of normal?

And Jingchen University and Shuimu University were just “fine”?

Shen Qiu struggled to speak: “So you’re saying your girlfriend is a top student? Do you think she can become the top scorer in Spring City?”

You should know that in Spring City, hardly more than ten people are admitted to Shuimu University and Jingchen University each year.

Those who could enter these two universities could challenge for the top score.

“…That’s a bit difficult.” Qi Yun frowned, looking conflicted.

“Don’t you have confidence in your girlfriend? Do you think her grades aren’t good enough?” Shen Qiu smiled and said.

“It’s not that… It’s effortless for her to become the top scorer. I just need to answer a few questions. But she wouldn’t want that.”

Qi Yun scratched his head and continued, “But I’m not particularly concerned about being the top scorer. However, we made a promise that I would confess if she became the top scorer. I can’t go back on my word, can I? Qingxue is still waiting!”

Shen Qiu: “???”

She swallowed nervously.

You just need to answer a few questions. What kind of devilish statement was that?

Moreover, she also realized a problem.

“Are you also a candidate???”

“Yeah, I finished the exam and came here.”

“…So, are you saying that you’re the top scorer in our city, and your girlfriend is the second-ranked student in our city? If you don’t perform well, she becomes the top scorer?”

“Yeah, if the first-ranked student doesn’t perform well, then the second-ranked student becomes the top scorer, right?”

What you said makes perfect sense.

Even I, Shen Qiu, a well-known TV host from the city TV station, couldn’t argue against it!

So becoming the top scorer was that simple!

Education is in vain!

“The exam is over, and I need to go to pick up my girlfriend!”

Qi Yun ran off.

……

Shen Qiu stood in place, her gaze fixed on Qi Yun’s figure, showing a complex expression.

“Do you think what he said makes sense?” After a long time, she turned to ask the cameraman.

“I don’t know if it makes sense or not.”

The cameraman took out his phone. “The station just sent me a message. The ratings went through the roof during your interview with that young man!”
