Su Yue felt flustered by Bai Liqing's words.
What was the nature of her trending topic?
Why did the leadership need to discuss it?
Everyone else in the team was busy, so she had no one to ask.
She waited an hour in anxious disquiet before Bai Liqing finally returned.
As soon as she entered, Bai Liqing raised an eyebrow at Su Yue and said, "Come to my office."
Su Yue quickly obeyed.
The moment the door closed, Bai Liqing revealed a smile, "Our Yue Yue is truly amazing. On her first day, she's already made such a huge impact."
She sat down in her office chair and gestured to the chair opposite her, indicating for Su Yue to sit.
Su Yue was extremely nervous. As she sat, she asked cautiously, "Teacher Bai Li, what do you mean?"
"The leadership is very pleased. The television station has always wanted to attract more young people to pay attention to news events and has discussed many plans for this, but the results have always been mediocre."
"Do you know how many views the video of your interview last night got on various platforms? It's already over a million."
"Half of them are young people in their twenties."
Bai Liqing spoke with a smile, recounting the details.
So it was a good thing.
Su Yue finally relaxed.
Bai Liqing, sensing her relief, let out a sigh and shared more good news.
"The leadership has decided to produce a series of exclusive interviews focusing on the military parade activities. Each segment will be ten minutes long and published on the station's official accounts."
"If there are particularly exciting interview clips, they can also be included in the news."
"The planning and guidance will be mine, and the interviewing reporter, of course, will be you."
At this point, Bai Liqing winked at her.
Su Yue's eyes widened, and her recently calmed breathing and heartbeat quickened again.
"Me? But I just started…"
"So what? The leadership saw your interview clips and was very impressed with your abilities. Otherwise, no matter how pretty you are or how many young people watch, you wouldn't have this opportunity."
She paused, then reassured Su Yue, "This is the result of your hard work over the years. You should have confidence and courage. Go for it boldly, and I'll be behind you."
…
The entire day felt like a dream to Su Yue.
Although she completed her work as usual, her mind felt a bit empty.
It wasn't until almost quitting time in the afternoon that the secretary of the deputy director, who was in charge, knocked on the office door and announced that the deputy director wanted to discuss the exclusive interviews with them.
Only then did she realize.
This was not a dream.
In the deputy director's office.
When the two entered, the deputy director smiled and placed an invitation letter in front of them.
The bright red seal of the "Public Security Bureau Propaganda Department" on it made Su Yue's heart tremble.
"The Public Security Bureau saw reporter Su's video yesterday and called the director this morning, saying they also want to be interviewed," the deputy director said.
"They participated in the security arrangements on the outermost perimeter of the square during this National Day military parade and want to use this opportunity to promote the image of police officers."
"Since we are conducting exclusive interviews for the event, the director agreed, and they sent the invitation letter this afternoon."
"You will go tomorrow to liaise with the person in charge there and discuss how the interview will proceed. Report back to me afterward."
After speaking, the deputy director looked at the two of them with a smile.
Bai Liqing's face lit up with surprise, "The Public Security Bureau…"
That was where Chen Ziming was currently working.
Su Yue suppressed her pounding heart and earnestly replied to the deputy director, "Understood, Deputy Director."
***
In the evening, at home.
Su Yue stared blankly at the scanned invitation letter from Bai Liqing on her computer.
It was sent by the Propaganda Bureau.
Chen Ziming was currently in the Public Order Administration Bureau.
Hopefully, she wouldn't run into him…
Every day abroad, she missed him terribly.
But because of Su Minghua's matter, she never knew how to talk to him.
The longer the time passed, the less she knew what to say.
Fortunately, over the past two years, she had indeed grown a lot, gaining more confidence and strength within herself.
Therefore, as her return to China drew closer, she became more and more eager for their reunion.
She wanted to hug him.
She wanted to kiss him.
She wanted to comfort him…
She wanted a romantic atmosphere to do these things.
Su Yue glanced towards the bedroom. In the wardrobe there were clothes she had bought abroad, clothes he would definitely like.
There were also many gifts she had bought for him.
Thinking of this, her delicate cheeks flushed.
She had originally planned to see him on the weekend.
She hoped she wouldn't run into him tomorrow.
