Chapter 239: Chapter 239: The Head-Scratching Mountain of Endless Problems

In the past few days, Cameron Grant has noticed that his artist neither accepted any activities nor went to the company, almost like he disappeared into thin air.

No choice, he had to make a video call to see if the person is still around.

After a few seconds, the call was answered, but the camera showed no one, just the ceiling and chandelier.

Cameron: "..."

After two seconds, he asked puzzled, "Jensen, what are you doing?"

Before Jensen Sterling could start speaking, a girl’s voice came from the other side: "Mr. Sterling, can you check if I did this right?"

Then Cameron heard Jensen slowly reply to him: "Hold on a second."

Then, the microphone transmitted Jensen’s voice teaching a problem, very slow and patient.

Cameron: "..."

...

On the other side, Mia Sutton was seated at Jensen’s desk, holding a pen and had one stuck in her ponytail.

One hand propped on her head, her face showed extreme frustration, eyes locked on the test paper on the desk.

She was really getting stressed, it had been a long time since she lived such a life of constant problem-solving, it was truly a mountain and ocean of problems.

Initially, Mia: Immersed in a sea of knowledge, I’m happy, I’m joyful, I can do this!

After two days of calculus, Mia: Suddenly realized, I might not be able to.

She only had one thought, wanting to die!

Returning everything to the teacher, the teacher would probably want to kill her, now making her study linear algebra, physics, and calculus was simply torture.

She felt like her hair was going to fall out from staying up late for the past few days.

Her major was Chinese Language and Literature, but that didn’t mean she could escape the torment of math and physics; she had to pick up all the freshman courses she missed and learn them anew.

Moreover, now that she is part of the entertainment industry, the first thing she needs to do is establish a positive image to the public, so being expelled is absolutely not an option.

Even if we exclude this aspect, Mia herself genuinely enjoys Chinese Literature, she is interested in it and willing to put in the effort, so she is even less likely to drop out.

Not only will she not drop out, but she needs to study well.

And now she mainly works in the entertainment industry and is very busy, with all sorts of things possibly happening later on, meaning she spends very little time at school.

So, to get the school’s approval for her long-term leave, she must present something excellent and convincing.

That’s where her grades matter, and so these days, she is dedicated to diligent learning.

In the past two days, she had pulled out all her freshman and sophomore textbooks, from Chinese ancient literature to modern literature, recent literature, every book had begun to be systematically reviewed.

Fortunately, Mia herself has extensive knowledge in this area, and she is interested in it, so she finds it easy to read these subjects, with no difficulty, quickly reading through them.

But not all subjects are this simple, for example, calculus, and grand physics, truly asking for one’s life.

Mia barely got the books with full confidence, ambitious, determined to read thoroughly and learn.

But the reality is that ideals are rich, the reality is lean, and not only lean but even chilly with one gust.

This is her most profound and soul-touching feeling towards these subjects.

Sorry, she was wrong; she shouldn’t have been so ordinary and yet so confident thinking she could tackle those books alone.

Until after a day of studying, she found out she couldn’t, what a painful realization!

...

Additionally, the casting time for the fantasy drama has been postponed again; apparently, there are still issues with the script, the director thinks some areas need modification, so the writer is revising again.

With the delay in this schedule, Mia’s time in the past few days is freed up to frantically compensate for previous learning.

Regarding her major courses, there’s no need to worry much, she is 90% confident; now it’s these few courses causing Mia some headache.

It’s not that she doesn’t understand at all; if she did, she has about ten days left and could directly declare surrender.

She only doesn’t understand a part, but that part is enough to drive Mia crazy; she really feels these concepts are quite inhuman.

...

The day before yesterday, there was a problem she couldn’t solve, she spent over an hour struggling with it when Jensen saw it.

Jensen helped her figure it out, after explaining it, Mia felt as if her whole mind was refreshed.

Lately, she has been pulling him in to teach her problems; having covered many questions, Mia realized that Mr. Sterling is truly a walking problem bank, questions that could make her lose two handfuls of hair are easily solved by Jensen.

Turns out those problems in front of her are ferocious tigers, while in his hands they are mere kittens.

In the beginning, Mia worked mostly in the living room, sitting often on the sofa, hugging a book to read, and then solving problems, occasionally lying on the table to write.

Later when she needed professional course materials, she initially wanted to tell Jensen and then go to the bookstore to buy some books.

After she finished saying, he went into the study and shortly came out with several books.

They were all she needed.

At that time, Mia blinked and asked, "Mr. Sterling, are all these from your library?"

She had never been to Jensen’s study because she knew, for a place like a study, especially Jensen’s study, there might be important files, so she never entered.

She didn’t know what books were inside.

Jensen smiled and pulled her up from the sofa, bringing her into the study.

Mia looked at the rows of bookshelves in the study, truly shocked; although she also liked some books, her collection was nowhere near Jensen’s.

The variety of books was vast, covering almost every field.

Mia looked around, then turned her head to Jensen with surprise: "These... Have you read them all?"

He chuckled slightly, his slightly magnetic voice ebbing from his throat: "Needed for acting, buy more during usual times."

Because Jensen had acted in many genres and played many roles; you can’t casually decide to play a role, each time he takes on a script, he’d buy books related to the role, accumulating over time to this amount.

"Look around, see what other books you need, pick them; those are literature-related." Jensen pointed in a certain direction.
