The four dazzling golden characters of "Shengshi University" were particularly blinding under the sunlight, making me feel as if my eyes were about to be poked out. Wiping the sweat off my brow, I shouted into my phone: "Li Wei, looking at these four titanium alloy characters in front of me, along with the red lanterns hanging all over the street like an ancient local tyrant marrying a wife, why do I feel like thunder is rolling in? I really wish I could slap myself. How did I even perform in the college entrance examination?" I shouted into my phone again: "Li Wei, looking at these four titanium alloy characters in front of me, along with the red lanterns hanging all over the street like an ancient local tyrant marrying a wife, why do I feel like thunder is rolling in? I really wish I could slap myself. How did I even perform in the college entrance examination? How did someone who ranked in the top ten in every mock exam end up in such a school?"

Li Wei, what do you think about me going back to repeat my senior year of high school?

Who wants to apply for the Foreign Language Department? I messed up the college entrance exam, my parents are fighting over divorce, and the house is in constant turmoil. The noise is so unbearable that I feel like jumping off the sixth floor. Who has the heart to fill out applications? That day when I went to school to fill out my application, I was only halfway there when someone shouted to tell me that my mother was threatening to hang herself. Sometimes I think my mother is really quite bold; when it comes to death, I only think about it, but she decisively took action. While hanging a rope on the door frame, she looked at me, who was rushing back, and laughed grimly, saying, "It's all your fault, you wild child!" Sometimes I think my mother is really quite bold; when it comes to death, I only think about it, but she decisively took action. While hanging a rope on the door frame, she looked at me, who was rushing back, and laughed grimly, saying, "It's all your fault, you wild child!"

My mind was blank as I stared wide-eyed at the woman preparing to put her neck into the noose

Foreign Language Department! Ai Ye, you are truly foolish! How can someone like you, who studies science and has such terrible English, have the audacity to enroll in the Foreign Language Department?

In the distance, I saw a few people standing at a spot on the street, holding a sign that read "Foreign Language Department". My eyes, blurred by the sun's glare, suddenly brightened up.

"Come on! With your capabilities, even if you go to a top university, you'll just end up in a second-rate major, becoming a third-rate student, and eventually finding a fourth-rate job!" Li Wei, lounging at home with the air conditioning on, retorted while munching on potato chips.

I am about to cry, sniffing my nose at the phone: "Li Wei, others can be remade, but I cannot! Where can you ask me to find my biological father? If I can't find him, I won't be remade!"

I glanced around and noticed that there were quite a few volunteers wearing red hats, but I did not know which one to approach

I gazed with a grimace at the bustling crowd on the stone path leading directly to the campus, feeling a slight soreness in my nose

Have you lost your mind from the heat? Repeating yourself? Why don't you go back to your mother's womb for a reboot! Change your ways; stop daydreaming and writing novels all day long. Who knows, maybe you won't just be daydreaming during the college entrance examination.

Ugh! Before I could finish speaking, I heard Li Wei's complaints from the other end of the phone, and my temples started to throb.

When I received the call from Li Wei, I was wandering at the entrance of the university. With the scorching sun overhead and dragging a large suitcase in my hand, I felt like a fool, staring blankly at the magnificent building in front of me.

Li Wei is not wrong; I am just someone who gets by anywhere. Whether it is the foreign language department or not, as long as I can avoid my family, living alone is good enough

The incessant scolding from Li Wei came through the phone, and with a flick of my finger, I hung up the call. I raised my head, and tears were about to fall again. Under the sunlight, I was bright yet sorrowful

For several consecutive days, I have been called "wild seed" by those who were once closest to me. But who is truly "wild" that could give rise to me? Do they not realize this themselves? Why is it that, despite having made mistakes themselves, they still choose to blame me?

Li Wei said "recasting," and sometimes I really want to go back, but I don't want to be recast. Because it has caused too much suffering! When filling out my application, I carelessly checked a few options without paying attention, and unexpectedly, the first major I selected was that damned "foreign language." Fate really plays tricks on people; from the very first second of my birth, I have been a joke, living in a cycle of being toyed with and toying with others. Choosing a major in college, such a trivial matter manipulated by fate, is truly insignificant.

You just keep complaining! No matter how optimistic you are, you can't compare to that. Your father has someone outside and still has the face to talk about you? It's one thing that he divorced your mother, but why drag out so many issues! Forget it, I won't waste my breath with you. Hurry up and report in, dragging so many things under the scorching sun all by yourself is no joke. And it's not that I'm criticizing your mother, but no matter how much you blame your father, you can't go to school alone! Forget it, I won't waste my breath with you. Hurry up and report in, dragging so many things under the scorching sun all by yourself is no joke. And it's not that I'm criticizing your mother, but no matter how much you blame your father, you can't go to school alone! By the way, you can't even tell directions, you're hopelessly directionally challenged. Does your school have volunteers to help new students? If you can't find your way, just look for Little Red Riding Hood!

Li Wei, I saw the sign for our Foreign Languages Department! I went there first and hung it up!
