Actress Secret Lover - Chapter 14

Rong Huaying was silent for a while and sighed.

“Why sigh?” Rong Qing looked at her mother while eating.

Rong Huaying closed her eyes and said, “I’m against it. Rong Rong, the entertainment industry is not so easy to break in through. Didn’t you hear about those hidden rules or something?”

“Yes, I heard about them a lot.”

Rong Qing was silent for a moment.

“But, Mom, I don’t like a bland life, I don’t like to be trapped in chai oil and salt all day, and I don’t like to think before spending one yuan. I don’t want … waste these looks, this youth. “

Rong Huaying said, “Why didn’t you go take the art examination? At the time of the art examination, I asked you, you said you wouldn’t go.”

The matter of ‘not taking the art test yourself’ was naturally the ‘reasonable explanation’ given by the ’cause and effect hex’. The ’cause and effect hex effect’ couldn’t allow her, a person who had not participated in the art examination in her past, did not get a pass for the art examination.

But these things could not be told to her mother. Rong Qing could only say, “At that time, I hadn’t figured it out. I was afraid that I couldn’t live my life under the watchful eyes of countless people.”

“Then why did you think about it now?”

“Just… I suddenly figured it out,” Rong Qing could only explain so.

Rong Huaying looked at her with tears in her eyes. Then she closed her eyes and resolutely said, “Since you decide to be an actor, then repeat one year and retake the college exam! Anyway, you still have to go to the university. Indeed, there are many famous actors who are not from the art schools, but this road is not the norm and I don’t know how much hardship you have to suffer. Mom can’t bear to see you suffer those hardships.”

“But mom …”

Rong Huaying interrupted her directly, “You don’t have to worry about money. Although art is a little more expensive, it’s not very expensive. Mom will definitely be able to provide you with college tuition! If it doesn’t work, we can still put the house on sale. You won’t live at home after you go to college anyway. If you want to be an actor you have to listen to me, repeat the college exam again. Otherwise, I don’t agree!”

Rong Qing realized that her mother had misunderstood. She thought that she didn’t take the art exam at first because she was worried that her family couldn’t afford it.

Of course, it was a fact that their family had always been short of money. When she was a child, it was because her father was lazy. Her mother refused to divorce him.

Later, he got together with an unscrupulous woman. He lied to her mother, her grandfather and grandmother and said, “I want to change my bad ways and do a little business.” Her mother, her grandfather and grandmother wept with joy, and took out a lot of money for him.

When the father got the money, he lied to her mother. He said that he had been deceived and lost all money. His parents-in-law, and coaxed her to divorce him. Her mother agreed.

It wasn’t long before the truth was revealed and her grandfather had a stroke and paralyzed after the shock. He died a few years later. Following this,Rong Qing due to her illness, was fattened into a pig by hormone drugs in the original memory. In the new “memory”, she didn’t use hormone drugs, but she spent a lot of money. Later, grandma got cancer again …

In short, in the years when she was growing up, their family seemed to be cursed, and unlucky things continued to happen one after another, and it was very hard. Their life has been a little better in the last two years.

If not for the relocation of the old city, they would certainly not be able to live in their current house.

With such a family environment, it was really difficult to afford the tuition for art. It was no surprise that her mother would have misunderstood the “cause and effect hex” again.

“Mom, you think too much! I didn’t worry about the tuition fee,” Rong Qing sighed.

“Let me think about it! At the time college starts, we will decide on this issue,” she decided to put the issue on hold for the time being.

　　————————

After waking up in the morning, Rong Qing felt refreshed. She slept well all night.

She looked at the time. It was only six o’clock. She jumped off the bed neatly, changed into sportswear, and went out for a run.

It was summer and it was early in the morning. There were quite a few people who came to run on the green road.

Rong Qing ran a half marathon* again. In the morning light of the green road she clicked a few selfies of herself. In the photo, sweat soaked her hair, her cheeks showed a healthy flush, and she was full of vitality.

She took these photos, and took a screenshot of the running app which showed her running distance and speed, and posted it to Weibo, to which she just registered last night.

“The half marathon is done! I am a little tired, but I finally managed to do it.”
