Cheng Maixiang time-traveled into a historical novel.
On her wedding night, her groom deceived her into lying with a stranger on a kang.
The groom mistreated her because she was soft-he...
After hearing Ruan Peiling's words, Lu Chengcheng froze for a moment. After a long while, she stammered, "Will the interview be difficult? What questions will she ask? If I can't answer them, will she be angry?"
"No, no," Ruan Peiling immediately used her "foolproof" skills. "Don't worry, every reporter will make an interview outline and communicate with the interviewee before the interview. Xiao Zheng will do the same. She will give you the outline and you can take a look at the questions she will ask and prepare them in advance. If you find any questions difficult, you can tell her in advance and ask her to delete them."
Lu Chengcheng was completely defeated by her sharp words and stood there, not knowing what to do. Ruan Peiling immediately slammed the table and said, "Why, don't you trust me? Will I hurt you?"
Lu Chengcheng had finally made these two good friends, and she didn't want to disappoint them, so she nodded and said, "Of course I believe you. I'll accept the interview."
That's right!
Ruan Peiling nodded with satisfaction, put her arm around Lu Chengcheng's neck, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid. I'll be with her while she interviews you. If I find any questions, I'll interrupt you immediately."
Now Lu Chengcheng was completely relieved. With Ruan Peiling or Cheng Maixiang by her side, she felt indescribably at ease. It seemed that no matter how big the problem was, they could find a way to solve it.
Cheng Maixiang was writing flyers for the clothing store while laughing secretly. It was actually a good idea to let Lu Chengcheng accept an interview. Moreover, reporters of this era did things in a proper manner. They would not be like many paparazzi in later generations who had no bottom line and would not ask excessive questions.
Ruan Peiling shook her head helplessly. "Really? You're considered the most talented woman in the provincial university, but you're acting like you're being executed for giving an interview. How many people would beg for such a great opportunity?"
"What, the most talented woman?" Lu Chengcheng was completely stunned this time. After a long while, she said hurriedly, "How can I be considered a talented woman? Even if there is a review, it should be Maizi. The idea of sand painting was given by Maizi. Why is all the credit going to me?"
"Okay, okay, you've said this countless times. Many of my classmates know about it. And you even said that I was the one who strongly recommended the program to the student union. So, now the school calls us the three talented women of the provincial capital university. Oh, I never thought I could get the title of talented woman without doing anything. I'm really lucky."
Ruan Peiling said complacently, patting Cheng Cheng's shoulder, "Don't forget me next time if something good happens. If I follow you, maybe there will be a better title waiting for me."
"I don't like the title of talented woman," Cheng Maixiang said as she continued writing. "If the three of us were to form a group, the three talented women would be better than the Three Musketeers. Together, we'd be invincible."
In her previous life, she often heard celebrities and their classmates being called the Three Musketeers when they were in college. She always found it interesting and couldn't help but say it out loud this time.
"The Three Musketeers," Ruan Peiling savored the thought carefully and slammed the table. "Not bad, not bad, that's the swordsmen. The three of us are the Three Musketeers, specializing in punishing evil and eliminating evil. We are much more heroic than the talented women."
Then she suddenly smiled and said, "Zhao Linlin and Le Yueli have been pissed off these past few days. They were both so confident, thinking their show would be a huge hit on campus, but Cheng Cheng's show completely crushed them. Now everyone in school is talking about the sand painting, and who remembers their dance?"
To be fair, Zhao Linlin's dance was indeed well choreographed, and it seemed that she had some real skills. However, no matter how beautiful the dance was, the form was not very new. The sand painting gave all the students a shocking feeling. Under such a crushing pressure, the dance was naturally completely forgotten.
"By the way, are they still targeting you?" Ruan Peiling asked with concern. "If you are bullied, don't just endure it in vain. Fight back firmly and let them know you are not someone to be trifled with."
"Luckily, I've been living at home lately, and after lunch I'm in the classroom with Maizi. Plus, we're not in the same major, so we rarely run into each other, so naturally there won't be any conflicts."
Cheng Maixiang suddenly stopped writing and asked, "How are you doing at home? Have your stepmother, brothers and sisters returned?"
"No, but Aunt Lan saw that my dad hadn't gone to pick him up, so she went to his workplace to look for him last Saturday. But my dad didn't respond, so she didn't go again."
Lu Chengcheng said this and suddenly sighed softly, "Ever since my dad saw the sand painting show, he's been extra nice to me and even bought me things. But for some reason, I'm not as happy as I thought I would be. Instead, I feel indifferent. Maizi, do you think I'm weird?"
"There's nothing strange about that. You didn't have confidence in yourself before, and you denied yourself, so you expected your father to pay attention to you. But everyone's praise has made you realize your own excellence, given you confidence, and made you stronger inside. Cheng Cheng, you have to remember that your brothers and sisters' methods of trying to please your father are just coquettish and foolish. You have to work hard to make yourself better, so that your father can look at you as an equal, or even look up to you. At that point, you will be so strong that your relatives' actions can no longer hurt you at all."
Lu Chengcheng listened carefully, not missing a single word. She felt that what Maizi said were all wise words. Yes, her father looked at her differently just because she had achieved this little bit. And she didn't seem to care when her father would take her stepmother and younger siblings back. After all, she had the confidence to face their provocation.
Therefore, we still have to work hard to make ourselves better. This is the way to make ourselves stronger.
Ruan Peiling noticed the atmosphere suddenly turned cold, and worried that Lu Chengcheng would recall the unhappy things in the past, she hurriedly asked, "Maizi, since you came to this classroom, I've seen you writing non-stop. What are you writing about?"
"This is a plan for the opening promotion of a clothing store. Take a look at it. Is there anything that needs improvement?" Cheng Maixiang handed over the plan.
The two of them gathered together curiously and read the detailed plan. They were surprised by some of the advanced concepts such as buy a few items, get one free, and get a refund based on spending a certain amount of money.
Since Cheng Maixiang often came up with ideas that others couldn't think of, the two of them had already developed a strong immunity to them. They didn't ask her how she came up with them, but just questioned her, "Maizi, aren't you afraid of losing money by doing this?"
"Don't worry, I've calculated all the costs clearly, and I won't lose money," Cheng Maixiang said confidently. "How about I choose a weekend to open the store? Then you two can't escape and you all have to come and help."
