She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 1134 - 916: Super Star 90 (Five Thousand)_2
Even though she wanted to respond countless times, she held back and didn’t say a word.
At this time, the advantages of anonymity became apparent. She could still wear a mask and do yoga livestreams on her author account.
Since everyone was staying at home, there were always people waiting for her livestreams every night. Her followers skyrocketed to five million, while the followers on her actor account, [Human Truth], plummeted. But Hua Yan didn’t mind, as followers who could be swayed so easily were not worth having anyway.
In early March, the school announced that this semester’s classes would be conducted online, which Hua Yan had anticipated. Because they had classes during the day, the two of them switched from day shifts to night shifts. This way, they could attend classes during the day and help out at night.
Since the lockdown in Wuhan would only be lifted in early April, they planned to work until then, attending classes obediently in the hotel during the day and resting whenever they could. She was fine, but she worried Ling Yao couldn’t keep up. Surprisingly, he was much more resilient than she imagined.
"After all, I’m a demon. This level of physical exhaustion is nothing. Don’t worry, I can handle over seventy consecutive hours of work."
With more free time during the day, Hua Yan cooked various dishes, like steaming an Emperor crab, stir-frying free-range chicken, roasting duck, and brewing a pot of seafood soup. Whatever Ling Yao wanted to eat, she made it, and they ate in their room, being careful not to dispose of trash directly, instead storing it in the space to dispose of when they went out.
Her major required piano practice, so she played for not six, but seven or eight hours a day. Luckily, the piano was in the space; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to continue her classes.
As for the classes in the Composition Department, she could only watch the replay. Thankfully, she was now a transfer student in that department and was part of a group, so she could catch the replay on DD streaming. Perhaps she was the only student double-majoring who wouldn’t get points deducted for missing roll calls?
After all, whether in the Piano Department or Composition Department, her grades were at the top. Even though her reputation suffered significantly this time, her classmates and teachers treated her as usual, sending her messages from time to time, which touched her deeply.
From February 23 to April 8, they worked as many days as Wuhan was locked down, 76 days, earning 38,000 yuan at 500 yuan per day, with free room and board, an unusually large sum of money.
Upon learning they were returning to Beijing, the hospital awarded them certificates of honor and issued them green channel passes.
Before leaving, they took nucleic acid tests, disinfected themselves thoroughly, and took photos with the entire medical staff in their ward. Such a grand farewell made them feel both honored and overwhelmed. At some point, people learned their identities, but because they were busy working and weren’t fans, they didn’t show it, even though they understood and admired their greatness, leading to this large group photo.
Even though everyone was fully protected, the adorable white suits still melted the hearts of the two receiving the photos, making this the most meaningful winter break of their lives. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
The journey back to Beijing was arduous. Coming from a high-risk area, they were stopped at the highway and taken to a quarantine point.
All these procedures were necessary, and no one was dissatisfied. Having remained safe in such a high-risk area proved how fit they were.
After a two-week quarantine, they were allowed to return to Beijing, but they were stopped at the community gate. Luckily, they had plenty of documents, certificates, and test reports, and though they were let home, a seal was stuck on the door for another fourteen days of home quarantine.
"By the time we get out, it’ll be after May Day, right?" Ling Yao said with a wry smile. Hua Yan sighed, "It’s good enough that they let you in the door."
It’s the truth. Some places wouldn’t even let you through seeing you’re from Wuhan, so being home made her very grateful.
Not having been home for months left their house in chaos. It took them the entire day to tidy up before it felt habitable.
"Either you sleep on the sofa, or you can set up a small bed in the study. There are blankets in the study; take them yourself. When the weather’s good, take them outside to air."
