Chapter 174 Foreseeing the Future

Chapter 173 Foreseeing the Future

Because there was work to do in the afternoon, the lunch banquet consisted mainly of wine.

It clearly means they don't want you to drink too much.

But it didn't open.

The reason is simple: the group's boss also attended the luncheon, and the red wine at the boss's table was not opened. Who else would dare to open it?

At least no one dared to approach Li Mu's table.

So everyone was happy to eat and drink, and in the end, the leader toasted everyone with a Coke instead of alcohol, and that was how the "alcohol" issue was resolved.

Li Mu was actually quite happy.

After all, the group's top prize is something that can be written into one's resume, not to mention... Before dinner, he met Cui Yuan's mentor.

He is also the editor-in-chief of the official newspaper—Wang Xiang.

Cui Yuan kept calling him "Master" and then introduced Li Mu to Wang Xiang.

Wang Xiang, an elderly man who should be nearing retirement, looked at Li Mu and said something:

"This news about Xiao Li is very valuable; there might be an even bigger surprise next April."

Li Mu was extremely happy.

After the meal, when Li Mu returned to the two tables at the workplace to offer toasts, Zhang Zhengwen gave him a brief instruction:

"Everyone, don't be late for work this afternoon. We need to stand firm at our posts until the very end."

Then they disbanded.

Only then did Sui Kuan have the chance to get closer to Li Mu, weighing the heavy gold trophy in his hand, his eyes filled with envy:

"Damn it, I wish I could go to America."

"...Go to America my ass."

Li Mu rolled his eyes:

"You don't even know which way America's door faces."

"...Sigh! I'm so envious!"

Fatty Sui sounded incredibly regretful.

But it immediately became "fierce":

"Tell me, what are your plans for tonight! I'm going to make you pay!"

Li Mu rolled his eyes even more.

After they parted ways, the two walked out together.

"Where are you going?"

When Sui Kuan asked this question, Li Mu received a text message from his girlfriend:

"I'm waiting for you at home. Come back quickly after you've finished eating."

The message was sent just now.

In other words...

"!!!"

"What's wrong? Why are your eyes so wide?"

"Uh...it's okay, I'm going home for a bit, I won't see you off."

"???"

Sui Kuan was filled with doubt as he watched Li Mu run towards the car without saying a word.

I thought to myself, "Why does this guy have such a strange expression?"

It was as if his head was made up of something indescribable.

……

"Hey, are you in my house!?"

"Hehe, guess!"

"...Stop messing around! I'm heading home right now. Don't lie to me, don't lie to me...I'll never forgive you!"

"Hehehe, then come back."

The girl on the other end of the phone chuckled sweetly.

"You...you really came!?"

"Hehehe, you'll find out when you get home, bye-bye!"

Without saying a word, the other end of the phone hung up.

But Li Mu was now completely excited.

He hadn't seen her for more than half a month, no, more than 20 days.

From before Christmas until now...

I thought I wouldn't see her again before the new year, but she actually...

"ha!"

Unable to suppress a laugh, the Santana, abandoning its usual steady and smooth style, sped wildly down the road.

After running all the way home, he checked the time.

1:45.

To be honest, it's actually getting a bit late.

but……

"Fatty, I might have an interview this afternoon. A person I arranged to interview just returned to Guangzhou. If anyone asks me about it this afternoon, just say I went to do an interview."

"Are you sure you didn't skip work?"

"How could that be?"

"Okay. If anyone asks, I'll just say you [went to do an interview]."

Clearly, Fatty Sui still didn't believe it.

"Um."

After sending the message, the person had already entered the elevator.

she……

For some reason, his breathing became a little heavy.

Soon, he arrived at his floor, took out his key, and opened the door.

Upon opening the door, a pair of women's sneakers were immediately spotted!

“!!!!!!”

"Baby? I'm home!"

"..."

The room was quiet, and no one responded.

Li Mu was taken aback.

"Baby?"

He took off his shoes, looked around... and suddenly noticed something strange.

That means my laptop was closed, not in the open state that I left open after shutting it down last night.

After thinking for a moment, he walked over and placed his finger on the notebook.

Hot.

It's hot!

"……ha."

He immediately understood why no one was responding and gave a strange smile.

Then I noticed that the master bedroom door was closed.

then……

The moment the door slowly opened...

"Hey!... Ah! Why aren't you dressed... um..."

Bang!

The door slammed shut again without warning.

You went into the bedroom by yourself.

He had fallen into the tiger's den.

You can't blame anyone else for that!

……

It's around 2:30.

Li Mu, still damp from the bathroom, entered the living room and looked at his girlfriend playing games on the computer, saying:

Have you seen my article?

"I saw it. I bought a newspaper as soon as I got off the bus, and I finished reading it on the bus... well, how should I put it?"

Putting the game aside for the moment, she looked at her boyfriend and said seriously:

"My biggest impression of you is your professionalism. The five criteria you set are indeed quite... how should I put it, quite professional. Including the content in each of your subsections, not only is the information detailed, but it's also very... convincing. To be honest, even I, as one of the ten people on the list, can't find any fault with it."

"ha."

Li Mu unconsciously smiled:

"That's fine then."

"I feel like this article has much more potential than just one piece. I'm even starting to regret it~"

"Regret what?"

"You should have added my name... At first, I just felt I wasn't worthy. But now I have this feeling... you've done something really big. It's possible... everyone will start calling them by that title. And if that really happens... do you know what that means?"

"What?"

Seeing her boyfriend's bewildered look, Fan Bingbing knew that he had no idea at all.

So she said very seriously:

"This means that your significance to us... or rather to them, is no longer just that of a newspaper reporter."

"?"

Li Mu's brain circuits were indeed a bit slow right now, as he was in a state of sage mode.

I really didn't understand what she meant by that:

"What do you mean?"

"Well... think about it, even I regret it and want you to add my name back. And who am I?"

My baby.

"……oops!"

The girlfriend, whose face suddenly turned slightly red, stomped her foot:

"Who told you that? I mean... I'm your girlfriend."

"..."

Li Muxin said, "Isn't that obvious?"

Seeing his expression, Fan Bingbing continued:

"If I wanted you to add my name to the title, would you?"

"Yes. Let's remove...Xu Jinglei. Anyway, I'm indifferent to her~"

"See, this is what I wanted to say. Although this idea is unrealistic, think about it, if I think this way, what about everyone else? If you really have the right to name the 'Four Little Actresses,' then... you can start thinking about those actresses."

"What am I thinking... Oh!!"

Li Mu immediately understood what she was talking about.

"Because I mentioned in my article that this list might change in two years?"

"right!"

"This year's class has been selected, but what about the next one? You're talking about those born in the mid-95s, but what about those born in the late 97s? The millennials? Don't they have to work hard to achieve that? Not only do they have to work hard on their own work, but I'm sure there are others who share my thoughts..."

"...What are your thoughts?"

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I want to go too. And the reason you agreed to let me go is because I'm your girlfriend, is that what you mean?"

"Well……"

The answer is obvious. Right now, Li Muka is thinking about other things along her train of thought.

then……

"I won't."

After fully understanding his girlfriend's meaning, Li Mu shook his head and said very seriously:

"I like you, not anyone else. Besides, I'm not an entertainment reporter, I'm a sports and culture reporter, and my future focus isn't limited to the entertainment industry... What if people really think I'm an entertainment reporter if I report on the entertainment industry too deeply?"

Although his words might offend entertainment reporters, they were indeed the truth.

Just like Cui Yuan, whom I met this morning.

They are senior reporters from official government newspapers, practically living right next to the Party newspaper. Their status is definitely higher than that of ordinary reporters, that's the truth.

"I just received an award this morning... sitting in the front row. Actually... I can more or less understand why you're so determined to push forward. Because..."

Recalling the feeling of being the only one ahead of him in the front row of the hall, mixed with the impulse in his heart, he spoke for the first time about his newly born ambition:

"I just want to move up."

Did Fan Bingbing understand what he said?

understand.

But... she didn't think about it too deeply.

Even now, her attention is focused on the deep affection and persistence in her boyfriend's voice when he says "I like you."

Are you happy?

of course.

Is it sweet?

same.

Can……

In the entertainment industry, just because you don't want something doesn't mean others don't.

She understands better than anyone else.
