“It’s like this, Fang Tian. I have an old classmate who is a department manager at Jiaxing Entertainment. Do you want to go?”
Fang Tian almost thought he had heard wrong.
Song Bao Guo was recommending an internship opportunity at Jiaxing Entertainment to him?
On the other end of the phone, Song Bao Guo seemed to know Fang Tian’s doubts and explained:
“Everyone was young once. When I was younger, I formed a band with a group of friends.”
“Later, I became a professor, and my friend became the department manager of the composition department.”
There was a tinge of sentimentality in Song Bao Guo’s words.
Fang Tian suddenly realized.
“Fang Tian, do you want to go?”
Of course! Why wouldn't he want to?
“I want to go, thank you, teacher.”
“Well, what’s there to thank me for? For the Fengyang Yi Village incident, I owe you a favor. The teacher doesn’t have any other skills, so I can only help you this much.”
“Besides, you’re truly capable.”
“I’ll give my old classmate a heads-up, and you can just go directly for the internship in the next few days.”
……
After the call ended, the 400,000 yuan that was split was transferred to his account.
“You found a place for social practice?”
Cheng Yi and the others had been watching Fang Tian make the call, and they had heard most of it.
“Yep, a subsidiary of Jiaxing Entertainment.” Fang Tian chuckled.
“Great, great. I’m going to Beijing, Nuo Yun is going to Shanghai, and you’re staying behind in the base camp, haha.”
“I wonder where Nan Nan is going?”
Fang Tian suddenly remembered Zhang Ruonan.
During the last couplet competition, he was too busy celebrating and didn’t even get to蹭 (ceng) on Nan Nan’s lucky aura to draw prizes.
This time, everyone was going out for internships, and the “legendary treasure chest” plan was probably going to be shelved.
Fang Tian immediately sent a message to Zhang Ruonan asking:
“Did you find a place for social practice?”
Fang Tian had just sent the message when Zhang Ruonan replied instantly this time:
“I found one, I’m leaving the day after tomorrow. I was thinking about saying goodbye to you. Do you want to have dinner together tonight?”
Fang Tian: “Okay, okay, okay.”
Putting down his phone, Fang Tian continued writing.
By 5 pm, Fang Tian had written another 30,000 words.
Then he changed his clothes and went to dinner with Zhang Ruonan.
Last time, the two of them had dinner together, Zhang Ruonan had been waiting for him downstairs.
This time, Fang Tian set out earlier to wait for her.
After a short while, Zhang Ruonan appeared at the entrance of the dormitory building.
They hadn’t seen each other for a few days, and she seemed even more beautiful.
She was wearing a Bohemian-style long dress today, and she looked incredibly ladylike.
When Zhang Ruonan saw Fang Tian at the entrance of the dormitory building.
She immediately ran towards him with a smile on her face, immediately making countless others envious.
As soon as they met, Zhang Ruonan started teasing Fang Tian:
“Fang, the great talent, you’ve been incredibly busy lately. Finally remembered your little woman.”
“Nan Nan, I’m busy with my career, you know? I thought of you as soon as I was done.”
“Nan Nan is honored, haha.”
……
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the school gate.
Going for barbecue wasn’t appropriate anymore.
They simply found a simple Western restaurant near the school gate to eat.
Halfway through the meal, Fang Tian asked, “Where are you going for social practice?”
When asked about this, Zhang Ruonan chuckled, “I’m going to teach in a poverty-stricken area for a month.”
Fang Tian was stunned.
Going to teach in a poverty-stricken area?
It seemed like this timeline was really different.
For a moment, Fang Tian’s already overflowing fondness for Zhang Ruonan was about to burst.
Zhang Ruonan continued, “It’s not far, I found it myself. It’s in Minning Town.”
Minning Town…
Fang Tian suddenly remembered.
On Earth, there was a very popular poverty alleviation drama about Minning Town.
That TV series was called “The Mountain and the Sea.”
“I’ve heard of that place. Isn’t it in the Gobi Desert?”
“Huh? You know that place?” Zhang Ruonan was a little surprised.
Out-of-towners rarely knew about Minning Town.
She found it online.
Fang Tian looked at Zhang Ruonan's extremely beautiful face, her fair skin, and teased her, “There’s a lot of wind and sand in the Gobi Desert. When you come back, you’ll probably have two patches of high-altitude redness on your face, right?”
Nan Nan raised her head proudly and said, “It’s the red of honor.”
“How did you decide to go teach?” Fang Tian was curious.
Zhang Ruonan propped her chin on her hands and thought for a moment, “I’ve had a good life since I was young. The first time I saw children in poverty-stricken areas in a book, I felt like we were living in different worlds.”
“Every day when I turn on the TV, I see tall buildings, handsome men and beautiful women. It’s like I’ve never seen the other side of the world. So I’m going to see it for myself.”
Fang Tian raised his drink in admiration and said, “Cheers to you.”
Zhang Ruonan raised her drink and drank it in one gulp, “Little Fang, let’s work hard together!”
“Okay! Also, I’ll see you off the day you leave.” Fang Tian smiled brightly.
This was a legendary treasure chest!
He couldn’t miss any opportunity.
He even thought about going to teach there with her.
But he was afraid that if he was too obvious, it would backfire.
The balance was incredibly difficult to strike.
Sure enough, Zhang Ruonan waved her hand,
“No need, my dad knows I’m going there, so he’s leaving from home tonight. He’s personally going to send me off at 9 am the day after tomorrow.”
Good heavens, this was a princess too.
For a moment, Fang Tian didn’t know what to do.
However, a pampered little princess who was willing to go to the Gobi Desert to teach was truly impressive.
“What about you, Little Heavenly Emperor? Where are you going for social practice?”
Fang Tian then told Zhang Ruonan about his own arrangements.
Finally, they both raised their glasses, wishing each other good luck on their journeys.
The two days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was Zhang Ruonan’s departure day.
Fang Tian woke up early that morning.
Then, around 8 am, he called Zhang Ruonan:
“Nan Nan, where are you?”
Zhang Ruonan was a little surprised to receive Fang Tian’s call:
“I’m at the school gate getting ready to leave. What’s wrong?”
