Chapter 77 The Umbrella in the Rain

After visiting the set of "The Story of a Noble Family", Wu Yuan continued to enjoy his vacation.

According to Disney's requirements, he only needed to join the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" before October 12, and Wu Yuan could use the rest of the time as he pleased.

So during this period, Wu Yuan, apart from frequently calling John to follow up on the situation of the Light Era, was basically in a state of eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating.

Even the flesh on his body grew four or five pounds!

It's a pity that his group of friends from the 1996 class have basically improved their careers and are busy filming everywhere. Zhou Xun is also filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

So Wu Yuan didn't have many friends to get together with during the months he stayed in Beijing.

But the leisurely days will always end one day.

Soon, the time came to September 1st, and the film academy, which had been on vacation for two months, started again.

Wu Yuan also upgraded from an undergraduate to a doctoral student.

Doctoral students also have to report. Early in the morning on the 1st, Wu Yuan got up and left the dormitory building, and walked leisurely to the directing department building with his hands behind his back.

As the day for students to report to school, the film school today is undoubtedly extremely crowded.

All new and old students gathered on campus, and many seniors were busy welcoming new students.

Fortunately, the directing department was as quiet as ever. There were less than 100 undergraduates, masters and doctoral students in total. Wu Yuan didn't even have to queue up and completed the reporting matters.

His doctoral supervisor was also confirmed, and it was Professor Xie Xiaojing.

The learning environment for doctoral students in art and doctoral students in science and engineering is different.

Doctoral students in science and engineering are mostly led by their supervisors to do various experimental projects and spend every day in the laboratory doing scientific research.

Doctoral students in art are different. For those who study directing like Wu Yuan, studying for a doctorate is mainly a waste of time. Basically, they have to spend time in the library and read and study a lot of books.

"Research on Director Creation of Multiple Drama Forms", "Director Thinking and Director Creation", "Analysis and Rehearsal of Classic Plays", "Analysis and Practice of Director Schools", "Research on Contemporary International Director Techniques"...

Wu Yuan, who had just met his mentor, received this series of large books from his mentor, and was required to read and understand them all, and to ask his mentor for advice at any time if he did not understand.

Moreover, Xie Xiaojing gave Wu Yuan a task. In his first year of doctoral studies, Wu Yuan must independently stage a play, regardless of whether it is Chinese or Western!

Wu Yuan was still frowning after leaving the building of the directing department with the task assigned by his mentor.

He also had to stage a play, which was really troublesome.

Just as he was frowning and thinking hard, drops of rain fell from the sky and hit his face.

Looking up in surprise at the sky that was still sunny, Wu Yuan subconsciously touched his cheek to confirm that he was not wrong. It was indeed rain. He immediately cursed inwardly: "What a damn weather!"

Wu Yuan, who was holding a lot of books in his hands, couldn't get wet in the rain. It was a small matter for people to get wet, but it would be troublesome if the books got wet.

He lowered his head and immediately quickened his pace, wanting to hurry back to the dormitory.

September 1st was also the day when Liu Yifei came to the Film Academy to report.

She finally persuaded her mother to come to the school alone with her luggage on the grounds that she was already in college and could be independent.

Even when she met enthusiastic seniors at the school gate, she declined their kindness to lead the way, thinking that she had come here once with her mother before, and she should be able to find the dormitory by herself.

Then, she got lost.

Standing at the fork in the road between the Directing Department Building and the Acting Department Building, Liu Yifei looked at the almost identical buildings on both sides blankly, not knowing which way she should go.

Just when she was about to stop a passing student to ask for directions, some raindrops suddenly fell from the sky.

"Is it going to rain?"

After looking up at the sun still hanging in the sky with some surprise, Liu Yifei immediately put down her suitcase and pulled out a black folding umbrella from the side of the suitcase.

This sun shower came as soon as it was said, and the rain came very fast.

Liu Yifei had just opened the umbrella and held it up. Just a few drops of rain had already brewed into a drizzle.

The students on campus were in a mess. Some were frantically looking for umbrellas in their suitcases, and some were looking for eaves everywhere to avoid the rain first.

In the hazy rain, a figure holding a book and running wildly with his head down attracted Liu Yifei's attention.

"This rain is really coming, not even a minute later!" Wu Yuan lowered his head and used his body to cover the book covering his chest. He didn't expect to return to the dormitory safely. He just hoped to find a corner or eaves to shelter from the rain before the book was completely soaked.

"Director Wu."

"Huh?"

Wu Yuan, who was rushing on his way with his head covered, suddenly felt that the rain above his head was blocked, and a black umbrella was across him.

He turned his head in confusion and saw a little girl holding a suitcase in one hand and an umbrella in the other.

The girl stood on tiptoe to hold the umbrella for him, while still panting heavily to calm her disordered breathing due to running.

It was not easy to catch up with Wu Yuan who was striding fast.

"It's you." Wu Yuan smiled and glanced at her, reaching out to take the umbrella handle from Liu Yifei's hand.

It was not easy for Liu Yifei, who was less than 1.7 meters tall, to hold an umbrella for Wu Yuan who had grown to 1.85 meters tall.

He watched as Wu Yuan used his hands with distinct joints and long knuckles to take the umbrella handle and hold the umbrella between the two of them.

Liu Yifei, who had mustered up the courage to hold an umbrella for Wu Yuan, immediately felt that all the courage in her chest had drained away.

In her heart, she began to complain about herself.

Why did she rush over to hold an umbrella for Wu Yuan without thinking about anything when she saw him getting wet in the rain?

But soon she defended herself in her heart.

Director Wu spoke well of me in the crew of "The Story of a Noble Family" and treated me to a super sweet watermelon. How could she watch Director Wu get wet in the rain?

Just when two little people were fighting in Liu Yifei's head, a gentle voice appeared in her ears:

"Thank you, if it weren't for your umbrella, the books I just received would have been soaked."

Immediately, the two little people fighting in her mind disappeared, and Liu Yifei raised her head with a bright smile: "You're welcome!"

"Director Wu, you also spoke well of me when you visited the set, and treated me to watermelon!"

"I'm very happy to be able to help you."

"Yeah." Wu Yuan nodded slightly: "Don't call me Director Wu in school. Although I'm not your direct senior, you can still call me senior brother in school."

"Okay, senior brother!" Liu Yifei smiled even happier.

"Has "The Golden Age" been completed?"

"Yes!"

"Didn't your mother come with you to report?"

"Yes!"

"Are you going to the dormitory?"

"Yes!"

"Then I'll take you there."

"Yes!"

"Can you lend me your umbrella for a while? I'll return it to you when the rain stops."

"Yes!"

"Why do you only know how to nod and say "um?"

"Hehe."

In the drizzling rain, two figures, one tall and one short, clung to a black umbrella and walked away.

Brothers are so awesome. I recommended it on PK. Love you!

I solemnly promise here that I will update 12 chapters on the day of listing, and will continue to update based on the results. I will definitely give back to everyone's support with sincerity!
