Looking at Xiao Jiu so aggrieved, Mu Anan was slightly sorry for her.

Therefore, Mu Anan shook her head seriously when faced with Xiao Jiu’s question, “There’s nothing wrong with not doing well in school.”

“Then why does my father chastise me every day as if I’ve committed a serious crime!”

Xiao Jiu sat back on the cradle chair.

She looked depressed.

Mu Anan was used to seeing Xiao Jiu’s brilliant expressions. She was not used to seeing Xiao Jiu suddenly so depressed.

Xiao Jiu said, “I don’t want to study. I enjoy playing games every day, doing live broadcasts, and shooting some funny videos. I even take on advertisements.”

At the mention of this, Xiao Jiu’s eyes lit up.

At the mention of games and livestreams, the depressed expression on her face instantly disappeared. There was even a little pride on her face.

Xiao Jiu took out her phone and opened the homepage of her video app.

There were more than 20 million fans, and every video was about the game. A small number of videos were of Xiao Jiu wearing a mask, wearing a pink cat ear headset, and making funny dances and expressions with funny music.

Mu Anan scrolled down and immediately felt two words: Happy.

She casually clicked on the video of the PUBG game.

The scene was of Xiao Jiu standing in front of a car and dancing. The voice was mischievous and mischievous. Bro, come and kill me, kill me, come on.

In the end, when an enemy fired a shot, Xiao Jiu hid behind the car.

The enemy who was hiding in the building and attacking her was shot in the head by Xiao Jiu’s teammate in the other building.

Xiao Jiu happily began to dance again and deliberately put down the medicine packet.

Mu Anan laughed.

At first, when Xiao Jiu showed Mu Anan the video account on her phone, although she was proud, she still looked a little nervous.

And now, she felt relieved when she saw that Mu Anan was getting more and more happy.

She said, “I’ve told my dad many times that I like playing games and livestreaming. 1 can put my heart and soul into editing videos every day. Ever since I was young, there has never been anything that made me devote myself to it.”

Mu Anan listened to Xiao Jiu’s words and paused the video. She looked up at Xiao Jiu and asked, “So have you thought about playing professional eSports?”

Mu Anan’s phone was playing the scene of the highlights of Xiao Jiu’s game.

She alone used her rifle to close in and defeat her opponent completely and utterly. Very excellent.

Xiao Jiu did not expect Mu Anan to ask this. She was stunned for a few seconds before shaking her head decisively.

“I’ve thought about it, but I’m not suitable.” Xiao Jiu said, “Professional competition is boring. There are many requirements and restrictions. I don’t like it.”

She was used to being free.

She was the youngest in the family.

In addition, there were many older brothers in the family and few girls. Although she was often bullied by her older brothers when she was young, she was still well-protected and spoiled.

Mu Anan nodded and put her phone aside, “I can understand that your current idea is not to go to college or any professional school, and just focus on being a game blogger in short videos, playing games every day, recording videos, and when you have time, engaging in live streaming to play games, right?”

Xiao Jiu nodded.

“You talked to your father about this?” Mu Anan asked again.

Xiao Jiu nodded seriously.

“What did your father say?”

“He beat me up.” Xiao Jiu’s eyes immediately revealed a disappointed expression. She lowered her eyes and said in a very low voice, feeling very wronged, “Since I was young, no matter how strict he was to me, he would never hit me. That day, he slapped me.”

It was also from that day onwards that the relationship between Xiao Jiu and her father became worse and worse.

It’s gotten to the point where she’s now running away from home.

“Other than hitting you, did he say anything else?” Mu Anan did not comfort her immediately. Instead, she continued to ask calmly.

Xiao Jiu sighed deeply, “He said that I’ve been like this since I was young. I’m not promising at all. My family never expected anything from me. They just wanted me to get into a good university. Once I got in, they wouldn’t care about me.

“He said that 1 can’t even do this.”

In the end, Xiao Jiu started to get excited again, and her voice became much louder, “But I just can’t do it. If 1 can get in, I should be laughing. He insisted that I take the exam and study. What’s wrong with me if I can’t learn well? I just can’t learn well!”

The more she spoke, the angrier she became. Xiao Jiu kicked the small stool beside her.

The small stool rolled on the ground a few times and then got stuck in the corner of the table.

Mu Anan’s expression remained calm, “Xiao Jiu, I think your father is most angry not because you didn’t study well, but because you never thought about studying well.”

Xiao Jiu paused and looked at Mu Anan.

Mu Anan said, “A person’s personality reveals one’s family background. I can feel that you’re very cute and that your brain is straight. You’re a girl who has been doted on since she was young. You’re pure.

“Since you were spoiled growing up, I can’t believe your father still pushes you like this if you’re struggling to study yet get poor grades.”

Xiao Jiu fell silent.

Mu Anan continued, “Unless it’s that you’ve been rejecting learning and subsequently excusing yourself as not being good at it.”

Xiao Jiu remained silent. It lowered its head and did not look at Mu Anan.

Although she did not want to agree with Mu Anan, it seemed that.. Mu Anan hit the nail on the head.

Your dad was not trying to get you academic achievements by pushing you to study, he just wanted you to do a good job of what you should be doing at the age you are now. Isn’t the only thing you have to do is prepare for the test?”

Mu Anan said, “What you do now is also just your current favorite. What about later? Have you ever thought that if this industry declined in the future, or if it appeared in a new state, but you don’t like it, what should you do?”

“That’s for the future.” Xiao Jiu muttered, “I just want to enjoy the moment. Who knows what the future will be?”

“We don’t know what the future holds, but our current situation determines our future.”

Xiao Jiu grabbed the chair with both hands and swayed her legs gently.

She didn’t say anything because he didn’t know how to respond.

Mu Anan said, “I want to be a good person, I want to become connotative and cultured. I want to express my affection for someone in a romantic way, not just ‘I like you,’ that’s too deprived and cheesy.”

“I want to stand by the side of the person I like one day and be envied by the whole world. They will say that we are a perfect couple, and not that I am clinging to him.

“It’s because I’m outstanding and noble enough that the person I love chooses me.”

At this point, Mu Anan looked at Xiao Jiu very seriously and said, “I’ve come to life once, and I’m not willing to be mediocre.”

“Learning is the simplest and most direct way to make yourself outstanding..”
