"...," Nanxi who sat beside him was dazed, "Senior, I..."
"Donât be so nervous. I believe you can write it well. Feifeiâs writing isnât as delicate as yours. This type of interview requires touching peopleâs hearts. Iâve read some of your articles published during school, and I think youâre a perfect fit! Donât worry, after you finish writing, it doesnât mean itâs the final draft. It still needs continuous editing and polishing. Feifei and I will help you, you just need to write with confidence and donât worry about anything else!"
Liao Feifei also said, "Yes, yes, Nanxi, I also think youâre suitable! With such delicate white skin, youâre not someone to go out and do reporting! So, let senior and I do the reporting while you write. Doesnât that sound good?"
"No, Nanxi also needs to do the reporting. When it comes to writing articles, only by looking at some written materials and truly experiencing the reality can you write with real feelings and touch people. However, the main task is still writing!"
Then he looked up at Nanxi, his eyebrows lifted, forming a charming curve, "So Nanxi, your workload has increased quite a bit invisibly. So, are you ready for the challenge?"
Eyes bright, Nanxi nodded, "I dare!"
...
Next, the three of them were sipping milk tea while discussing the writing of the main topic on juvenile delinquency. The main discussion was actually between Lin Pinzhi and Nanxi, with Liao Feifei taking notes at the side!
The milk tea in Nanxiâs cup was finished, Lin Pinzhi waved for the waiter to top up another cup. The waiter asked, "Same flavor?"
Lin Pinzhi turned his head to ask her, "I forgot to ask what flavor you like!"
Nanxi smiled, "Mmm, taro flavor, thank you, senior!"
Lin Pinzhi smiled, "Donât be so polite with me!"
Having ordered the taro flavor and the waiter gone, Nanxi continued to browse through the documents in her hand with a serious look!
Lin Pinzhi sat opposite Nanxi, the girlâs clear and beautiful face reflected in his eyes, which sunk his heart slightly. Then he opened his mouth and called out, "Nanxi..."
Nanxi was startled, lifted her head, then met his clear and beautiful eyes, "Whatâs wrong, senior?"
Lin Pinzhi pursed his lips, his voice deep, "I feel like Iâve seen you somewhere before!"
Nanxi was surprised for a moment, "Youâve seen me before?"
Lin Pinzhi chuckled, "Maybe. I donât remember clearly, Iâll confirm it if I get a chance! Iâll let you know later!"
Nanxi: "..."
Confirm? How to confirm?
This excuse...
Liao Feifei wasnât there, she went to the restroom moments ago, Lin Pinzhi probably deliberately picked this time to ask her. But he was careful with his words!
Nanxi didnât dwell on it, this city is big, but it doesnât rule out that Lin Pinzhi might have really seen her somewhere!
Just like eight years ago when Lu Yinchu saw her, but she was unaware!
Soon Liao Feifei returned, the three of them sat together discussing for a while, until 10 a.m., Lin Pinzhiâs cell phone rang, stopping the discussion temporarily.
Lin Pinzhi returned again after five minutes, said he had something to attend to and had to leave. He hastily instructed Liao Feifei on some matters before hastily leaving.
After Liao Feifei and Nanxi tidied up the materials on the table, they returned to the Magazine Agency together. On the way, Liao Feifei asked Nanxi, "What were you and senior discussing earlier?"
"We didnât discuss anything special! Just making casual conversation!"
"Nanxi, I must remind you that youâre married. Although I havenât met your husband, as a friend and sister, itâs my responsibility to help maintain your familyâs harmony and peace! You canât have any feelings for senior. The bond of marriage is not easy to establish, you must appreciate it, understand?"
Nanxi felt that Liao Feifei was really overly sensitive, and laughed, "Donât worry, as great as senior Lin is, heâs not my type. My husband is very good, I love him, and I value him. I wonât do anything to betray him."
Liao Feifei nodded, "Hmm, thatâs best!"
Nanxi looked at her, a hint of hesitation in her expression, "Feifei, are you sure you donât like senior?"
"I do! But not the kind of âlikeâ youâre thinking of!"
Nanxi raised an eyebrow, "Who cares what kind of âlikeâ it is, as long as you like him, thatâs all that matters!"
"What are you talking about!" Liao Feifei frowned while explaining, "The âlikeâ Iâm talking about isnât the romantic interest between a man and a woman, but a kind of respect, admiration, and belief! Besides, Iâve said before that Iâm not interested in men. I like to enjoy my free and happy life, and I like people who focus on their work. So, naturally, I like senior... If you see him working, I bet youâd like him too!"
Nanxi stuck out her tongue. That was exaggerating!
And also, sheâs seen Lu Yinchu working. Heâs very charismatic, but she hasnât been dazzled by Lu Yinchu!
Well, actually she has, but she was just too reserved and cool to show it!
Nanxi followed Liao Feifei to the office, the office was bare, with only three desks.
One of them that was closest to the doorway, Liao Feifei said, was Lin Pinzhiâs. The remaining two were hers and Nanxiâs.
"This is all temporary, it will definitely get better in the future," said Liao Feifei, "You know? Nanxi, when senior studied abroad, he also worked as a reporter, but not in the area of youth mental health education, rather in social welfare and healthcare. He did a great job, you can search for his reports online. They really make you think and have significant social implications! Now heâs working in this area after coming back to the country. Itâs somewhat risky, and he doesnât get approval from the Chief Editor, thatâs why our team seems so deserted. But we must believe in seniorâs abilities and talents. In the future, things here will change. You and I, and everyone, will be different..."
Nanxi smiled, nodding, "I also believe. Feifei, letâs work hard together!"
"Mm! Letâs work hard together!"
...
At noon, Liao Feifei took Nanxi to the staff canteen for lunch. The food wasnât as good as KING Groupâs, but for Nanxi, it was already very good!
In the afternoon, Nanxi and Liao Feifei studied the materials on juvenile delinquency in the office. About the report-writing, Nanxi had published some articles and editorials before, but she had never really formally written a full piece.
The nervousness goes without saying!
At three in the afternoon, Lin Pinzhi came back, brought them two cups of milk tea, Liao Feifei was very happy, "Thank you, senior, I was just thinking of having some!"
Lin Pinzhi laughed, took out his phone, and said to Nanxi, "Give me your phone number, Iâll call you directly if something happens!"
"Oh!" Nanxi told him her number, Lin Pinzhi saved it, called Nanxi, hung up and said, "Remember to save my number!"
Nanxi obediently did, saving the contact name as: Senior Lin!
