Chapter 77 The Umbrella in the Rain
After visiting the cast of "Golden Pink Family", Wu Yuan continued to enjoy his vacation.

According to Disney's request, he only needs to join the group of "Pirates of the Caribbean" before October 10th, and Wu Yuan can arrange the rest of the time before that.

So during this period of time, except for Wu Yuan's frequent phone calls with John to follow up on the situation in the Xiaguang era, he was basically in a state of vacation where he ate and slept.

Even the flesh on his body has grown by four or five catties!

It's a pity that his group of 96-level friends have basically improved their careers and are busy filming movies everywhere. Zhou Xun is also filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

As a result, Wu Yuan didn't have any friends to hang out with during the few months he stayed in the capital.

But the leisurely days will always come to an end.

Soon, the time came to September 9st, and the film school started again after two months of vacation.

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

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 director department building with his hands behind his back.

As the day when students start reporting, today's film academy is undoubtedly extremely crowded.

Freshmen and old students all gathered in the campus, and many senior brothers and sisters were busy welcoming new students.

Fortunately, the directing department was as deserted as ever. There were less than 100 people with bachelor's degrees and master's degrees, and Wu Yuan completed the reporting without even having to queue.

His doctoral supervisor also confirmed that it was Professor Xie Xiaojing.

The learning environments for Ph.D.s in arts and Ph.D.s in science and engineering are different.

Ph.D. students in science and engineering spend most of their time working on various experimental projects under the leadership of their mentors, and spend every day in the laboratory doing scientific research.

The situation is different for PhD students in art. For those like Wu Yuan who majors in directing, studying for a PhD is very expensive. Basically, you 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", "Classic Repertoire Analysis and Rehearsal", "Director Genre Analysis and Practice", "Contemporary International Director Technique Research"...

Wu Yuan, who had just met his tutor, received this series of tomes from his tutor and asked him to read them all and understand them all. If he didn't understand anything, he could always ask his tutor for advice.

Moreover, Xie Xiaojing also gave Wu Yuan a task. In the first year of his Ph.D., Wu Yuan had to arrange a drama independently, regardless of Chinese or Western!
Leading the task assigned by the instructor, and leaving the building of the director department, Wu Yuan's brows were still furrowed.

It's really troublesome to arrange dramas.
Just as he was frowning and thinking hard, raindrops fell from the sky and hit him on the face.

Surprised, he raised his head and looked at the sky where the sun was still shining. Wu Yuan touched his cheek subconsciously to confirm that he was right. After confirming that it was indeed rain, he immediately cursed secretly: "What the hell weather!"

Wu Yuan, whose hands are full of books, can't get wet in the rain, it's a trivial matter for people to get wet, but troublesome if the books get wet.

Lowering his head, he immediately quickened his pace, wanting to hurry back to the dormitory.

September 9st is also the day when Liu Yifei comes to the Film Academy to report.

She finally persuaded her mother to report to the school alone with her luggage on the grounds that she had gone to college and could be independent.

Even when she met the enthusiastic senior brothers and sisters at the school gate, she declined the kindness of the senior brothers and sisters to lead the way, thinking that she and her mother came here once before, so she should be able to find the dormitory by herself.

Then, she got lost.

Standing at the fork between the Directing Department Building and the Performance Department Building, Liu Yifei looked blankly at the almost identical buildings on the left and right, not knowing which way she should go.

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

"It is going to rain?"

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

This solar rain comes at once, and the rain comes very quickly.

Liu Yifei had just opened her umbrella and held it up. What was just a few small raindrops had turned into a drizzling shower.

The students on campus were all in a mess, some were scrambling to find umbrellas from their suitcases, some were looking for eaves to escape the rain first.

In the hazy rain, a running figure holding a book and bowing its head attracted Liu Yifei's attention.

"It's going to rain at any time. You won't have to wait more than a minute!" Wu Yuan lowered his head and used his body to block the book covering his chest. He didn't expect to be able to return to the dormitory safely. He just hoped that the book would be completely absorbed by the book. Before getting wet, find a corner or eaves to take shelter from the rain.

"Director Wu."

"Ok?"

Wu Yuan, who was walking with his head covered, suddenly felt that the rain above his head was blocked, and a black umbrella was placed in front of him.

Turning around suspiciously, he saw a little girl holding a suitcase in one hand and an umbrella in the other.

While holding the umbrella for him on tiptoe, the girl was still panting heavily to calm down the disordered breathing caused by running.

It is not easy to catch up with Wu Yuan who is striding forward.

"It's you." Wu Yuan glanced at her with a smile, and reached out to take the handle of the umbrella from Liu Yifei's hand.

It is not easy for Liu Yifei, who is less than 1.7 meters tall, to hold an umbrella for Wu Yuan, who has grown to 1.8 meters five.

Watching Wu Yuan take the handle of the umbrella with his hands with sharp joints and slender fingers, and hold the umbrella between the two of them.

Liu Yifei, who mustered up the courage to come up to Wu Yuan to hold an umbrella, immediately felt that all the courage in his chest was drained.

In her heart, she began to complain about herself.

Why did you see Wu Yuan was drenched in the rain and rushed over to hold an umbrella for him without thinking about anything?

But soon she justified herself in her heart.

Director Wu said good things to me on the set of "The Family of Gold Fans" and treated my guests to super sweet watermelon. How could he just watch Director Wu get wet in the rain?
Just when there were two villains fighting in Liu Yifei's head, a gentle voice appeared in her ears:

"Thank you, without your umbrella, the book I just received would have been soaked."

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

"Director Wu, you also put in a good word for me when you visited my class, and even 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 should still call me Senior Brother in school."

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

"Has "The Family of Gold Fans" finished filming?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Didn't your mother report with you?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Are you going to the dormitory?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Then I'll take you there."

"Uh-huh!"

"Could you lend me the umbrella for a while, and I'll return it to you when the rain stops."

"Uh-huh!"

"How do you know how to nod and um?"

"hey-hey."

In the drizzling rain, two figures, one tall and one small, clung to each other under a black umbrella, gradually drifting away.
