Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl-Chapter 237 Internet sensation! [1 update]
Chapter 237: 237 Internet sensation! [1 update]
The principal’s assistant received the command and immediately took action.
Soon after, Jiangcheng No.7 Middle School officially posted a new Weibo update.
There were no words, only one picture.
The picture showed the score report from the recent citywide exam in Jiangcheng, with the overall rankings for all the high schools combined.
Name: Ye Wanlan
School: Jiangcheng No.7 Middle School
Major: History
Total Score: 746
School Ranking: 1
City Ranking: 1
The bottom right corner of the picture also had the official seal of No.7 Middle School, proving that the scores were authentic.
But many netizens couldn’t believe it.
["Citywide first place? Oh my God, that’s a top student right there, no wonder she was able to join the show. I bet none of the other seven can beat Ye Wanlan’s scores, right?"]
["The score must be ’shopped, how could a humanities student possibly get 746 points?"]
["I know about No.7 Middle School, it’s a haven for school bullies, all a bunch of people who don’t study properly. If there really was someone with such scores, why wouldn’t they just go directly to Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School? What’s so great about your No.7 Middle School?"]
["She even chose a deadly combination of subjects like history, chemistry, and biology? What’s she going to study after high school graduation? She’s not planning to jump straight into the entertainment industry with this program ’Treasures of The Divine Land,’ is she?"]
["Looking at Ye Wanlan’s past photos, I can only say she’s all looks and no soul. Without any backing in the entertainment industry, she’d definitely not be able to survive, right?"]
["A top student! No, this isn’t just a top student, she’s a study god. I’m her fan now!"]
Some netizens even went to the official Weibo of Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School to verify the results, asking them to release the real rankings and scores of the citywide exam.
But Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School remained silent.
The reason was nothing else but the fact—the score report released by No.7 Middle School was indeed real.
Ye Wanlan’s total score was an unparalleled existence among the humanities.
The principal of No.1 Middle School regretted countless times why they didn’t keep Ye Wanlan during the admissions process and even missed out on a psychologist from the Rong Family.
No.7 Middle School released Ye Wanlan’s scores and pushed the heat of the event to a new high.

However, Ye Wanlan’s appearance surprised the other four actor guests.
Upon seeing the official Weibo announcement of the formal guest list, Huo Ximian immediately ordered someone to look up this Ye Wanlan.
"Sister Mian, I’ve checked, and this Ye Wanlan is indeed as the internet says," the assistant stated. "Dropped out for three years, chased after the Young Master of the Zhou Family for two years, and Huangchi Entertainment Company stopped her work early on."
"So that’s the case." Huo Ximian nodded slightly, "It seems she just wants to get into the entertainment industry, but out of seven guests, she will definitely have the least screen time. She’s not a threat."
The assistant laughed: "The Huo Family also sponsored the show this time, so Sister Mian will definitely get more screen time when it comes."
Huo Ximian smiled faintly.
She joined the entertainment circle just for fun, but achieving some success still brought her great satisfaction.
She had received news in advance that the program ’Treasures of The Divine Land’ was negotiating media distribution channels with the Global Center and might be broadcasted globally.
If she could make it to the Global Center, her status in the Huo Family would also rise.
The sudden inclusion of a seventh guest in the show, one with a remarkable appearance, put Huo Ximian on alert.
There are only so many resources in the entertainment industry; if others take them, there’s nothing left for her.
But fortunately, Ye Wanlan was not a threat and would not affect her career.

It was 9:30 in the morning, and the sun had already climbed up into the sky. After the clouds dispersed, the sunlight leisurely fell down, scattering gold across the entire ground.
At this time, Fengyuan Ancient City was still quiet, with tourists just starting their day.
The morning breeze was gentle and warm, lightly rippling the waters of the city’s lake.
"This morning we are visiting the Yongle Palace Ruins and in the afternoon we’ll go to the Fengyuan Museum," Fang Qingli counted on her fingers. "I’ve already made a plan, everyone just needs to follow my lead."
Ye Wanlan’s eyebrows lifted: "With Qingli around, there’s no need to worry about any plans."
"Yongle Palace?" Jiang Xulin expressed his doubts. "I’ve seen pictures online; it’s just a pile of rocks. What’s so interesting about that?"
Fang Qingli was furious and immediately wanted to scold Jiang Xulin for his lack of cultural understanding.
But Ye Wanlan already turned her head, looking indifferently at Jiang Xulin: "Shut up."
Jiang Xulin: "..."
He knew he had erred, and he dared not do it again.
"This is not just some broken rocks; this is the last evidence left by Princess Yongle," Fang Qingli huffed. "Princess Yongle burnt herself in the Yongle Palace, even her bones were devoured by the raging fire, and you call it broken rocks?"
Still not appeased, she punched Jiang Xulin.
"Alright, alright, I was just talking nonsense," Jiang Xulin winced in pain, "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me."
"Let’s go." Ye Wanlan turned around and looked at Yan Tingfeng, who was sipping tea, "Did you take your medicine this morning?"
Yan Tingfeng’s fingers fiddled with his cup intentionally or unintentionally, smiling slightly, "I did, I’m very obedient to Xiao Wan."
Hearing this, Rong Yu rolled his eyes, thinking you just keep pretending!
The Yongle Palace Ruins were also within the ancient city, an AAAA-rated scenic spot, opening at ten, and people were already queuing outside.
Of the entire Yongle Palace, only the outer rear walls and gates remained relatively intact.
Once inside, all one could see were ruins and remnants.
The plants and trees could still grow again after the four seasons, with tender green shoots, but the people who had left would never return, no matter what.
A slight sting passed through Ye Wanlan’s mind.
Standing on the land of the Yongle Palace, it was as if she could see how the twelve-year-old Princess Yongle faced death with equanimity.
Self-immolation, an unimaginable way to die.
With her and the King of Yan protecting her, Yongle, their youngest sister, could have lived a peaceful life.
Who would have thought that she would not live a long life, and the Ning Dynasty would not endure forever without decline.
Hatred surged in her heart like a tidal wave.
The scorching sun made the stabbing pain in Ye Wanlan’s brain stronger, and she staggered involuntarily.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Yan Tingfeng’s hand steadied her shoulder, his voice gentle, "It is rather hot today, let’s rest up ahead."
After sitting down in the pavilion, Ye Wanlan pressed her head and gently exhaled, "Sorry, I lost my composure."
"I said a long time ago that Xiao Wan doesn’t need to apologize to me," Yan Tingfeng blinked gently, "but if you’re willing to share what’s bothering you, I’m more than willing to listen."
"Hmm." After a moment of silence, Ye Wanlan spoke softly, "I was just wondering momentarily if Princess Yongle was in a lot of pain when she died, and whether she cried or not?"
Obviously not expecting this question, Yan Tingfeng’s hand trembled slightly, "Perhaps, she didn’t cry."
The enemy forces were pressing in, and at that time he had just happened to be in retreat. By the time he broke out and hurried to Fengyuan City, many things were already irrevocable.
The Princess Jingan torn apart by chariots, Princess Yongle who self-immolated at the Yongle Palace, and Emperor Yongshun, who finally stood atop the city walls.
When a country is in peril, the emperor guards the gate; a king dies for his state.
All important members of the Xiang Imperial Family were dead, and the Ning Dynasty came to a bloody end.
Ye Wanlan asked, "Why wouldn’t she cry?"
Yan Tingfeng said slowly, "Because she was a Xiang, from the Xiang Imperial Family."
That statement made Ye Wanlan’s heart tremble, and she fell silent again, "I want to be alone for a while."
"Alright." Yan Tingfeng stood up, "I’ll be right over there, always available."
The leaves fell gently, and Ye Wanlan caught one in her hand, murmuring softly, "Yongle..."
One thing that Yan Tingfeng said was very true.
If Yongle was from the Xiang Imperial Family, then even if she was in pain before her death, she would definitely not shed tears in front of her enemies.
Shenzhou Warrior, bleed but never cry.
The Qingyun Pendant felt very sad, and with the sadness came some disappointment, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, am I really the only antique in the world that can speak? If so, it’s too lonely."
Gathering her thoughts, Ye Wanlan said indifferently, "Maybe other antiques are not as chatty as you."
Qingyun Pendant: "Ying."
It was just slightly excited after seeing the princess who had come back to life.
"But there definitely are others." Ye Wanlan’s pupils narrowed slightly, "I have a feeling that they are right here in Fengyuan City."
Perhaps, she could once again see histories revisited and gather more clues about the group of enemies from three hundred years ago.
**
After a day and night of spreading, the "Treasures of The Divine Land" show had gained even more popularity, and Ye Wanlan’s name was still trending.
[Shouldn’t the show replace her? This is a history show, not a playground for kids.]
[Even if her academic achievement is real, she’s in her senior year of high school, so why does she have time to participate in the show? Is she not just creating trouble?]
At four o’clock in the afternoon, just as Ye Wanlan had predicted, the show’s official account finally came online.
[@Treasures of The Divine Land Official: Miss Ye possesses a very high talent in history and archaeology and came through a rigorous selection process with not a hint of foul play.]
But netizens were still not convinced.
[There are plenty of people with talent in archaeology and history, so why out of millions was she the one chosen? If it’s about talent, isn’t the person who found the Concentricity Pendant and Golden Step Shake more talented?]
[Right, who found the Tongxin Pendant? They’re amazing!]
[I’ve already visited the Yunjing Museum, and I must admit, the craftsmanship of the ancients is incredible.]
Professor Xue sneered and clicked to reply and share.
[@Yunjing Bureau of Cultural Relics Archaeology Center Official: It was indeed with the help of Miss Ye Wanlan that we discovered the precious Tongxin Pendant and Golden Step Shake.]
Are you satisfied now?
