The Capital Airport.
Li Niannian and Chen Cheng waited for a long time before finally spotting the figure they hadn't seen in two years.
"Yueyue!!" Li Niannian was so emotional she could have cried, rushing over to give her a big hug.
Su Yue hugged her back tightly.
They had chatted every day for the past two years, and Su Yue had told Li Niannian everything, no matter how small.
Firstly, it was the desire for girls to share.
Secondly, she wanted to let Chen Ziming know what she had been doing abroad through Li Niannian.
"Let me see, have you changed?" Su Yue released her and observed her carefully.
Her skin had a slightly tanned complexion.
Her waist-length hair had been cut in half.
Her makeup and fashion style had a more Western European flair.
If the previous Su Yue was soft and pure, the current one was confident and healthy.
She was still beautiful, but with a sense of strength.
She was even more radiant.
"Alright, we'll have plenty of time to look later," Su Yue smiled, casually handing her luggage to Chen Cheng.
She tilted her chin, "Hold this for Auntie!"
She was accompanied by several classmates from abroad. After bidding them farewell, Su Yue left the airport with Li Niannian and Chen Cheng.
On the way.
"When do you report to the TV station?" Li Niannian asked.
"Next Monday." Su Yue checked the calendar; it was Friday.
This meant she could meet Bai Liqing over the weekend.
She had interned with many campus and social reporters abroad. This experience, coupled with her excellent resume, allowed her to pass the online application on the first try.
She still had an interview on Monday.
But it was not a suspenseful affair.
Bai Liqing had personally requested the station director to assign Su Yue to her department.
Li Niannian raised her tone in an "oh" and then, with a knowing look, asked, "So when do you plan to see Officer Chen?"
Li Niannian knew that Su Yue had lost contact with Chen Ziming.
However, Su Yue had not told her the specific reason, only that there had been some misunderstanding.
"After I start my job, I'm too busy these days," Su Yue replied, her eyes lowered as she thought.
Indeed, she had a lot to do.
There was an interview, settling into a new home, obtaining proof of overseas study, and verifying her academic qualifications...
The apartment she was about to move into was quietly purchased before she left the country. It was over sixty square meters and in a good location.
She had paid a little more than half with the money she had saved from her influencer career and had continued to operate her social media accounts to pay off the loan over the past two years.
To her delight, her fanbase had exploded after she went abroad, with more and more people seeing her hard work and looking up to her as a role model.
As a result, she had managed to earn enough to pay off the loan ahead of schedule.
This meant she would also have to handle the mortgage release procedures.
Once everything was settled.
She would go to see him.
"Are you sure? Let me tell you, my uncle is now officially the heartthrob of the Ministry of Public Security. The girls who chase him could circle the Ministry of Public Security building a hundred times..."
Chen Cheng, who was driving, clicked his tongue and glanced at her in the rearview mirror.
Su Yue's heart skipped a beat.
"Don't listen to him," Li Niannian shot him a glare, then looked at Su Yue, "No matter how many people chase him, it's meaningless if the heartthrob doesn't agree, right."
She paused, then a sly smile appeared, "He's never given other girls a chance, don't worry."
***
Everything went relatively smoothly.
For the apartment, Su Yue handed it over to a designer friend, and within a weekend, the friend had everything ready for her.
After the interview, Bai Liqing brought her to her team and introduced her to everyone.
Then, she led her to her office and called for her assistant before entering.
"The onboarding process will take a week. I'll have Xu Hui help you get familiar with the environment, process your access card and meal card, record your fingerprints, and collect your office supplies."
Bai Liqing sat at her desk, speaking as she thought, while Xu Hui nodded in agreement beside her.
After confirming there was nothing else to convey, Bai Liqing smiled at them, "Alright, you can go. I have an interview this afternoon, and I'll take you along."
The two bid her farewell. Just as they were about to leave, she suddenly remembered something and called out to Xu Hui.
"Yes, Sister Qing," Xu Hui quickly turned back.
"Yueyue has a boyfriend. If anyone inquires about her, directly and indirectly, you must firmly refuse.
"And you, don't get any wrong ideas yourself, understand?"
Xu Hui was taken aback but immediately agreed.
Su Yue: ...
