This was the first time Zhang Hongshu had seen Su Nuan. Even though he had seen countless people, he was still shocked by Su Nuan's stunning beauty.
Zheng Xiangrong, on the other hand, calmly explained the purpose of his visit to Su Nuan, "Comrade Su, we came here today to discuss something with you. Can you postpone your joining the army?"
Song Chunfeng was the first one to disagree with postponing joining the army.
But he respected his daughter-in-law's opinion and sat quietly aside without expressing his opinion.
Su Nuan was stunned on the spot. The editor-in-chief came to see her just for this matter?
The problem is that her joining the army doesn’t affect her writing!
"Why do you want me to postpone joining the army?" Su Nuan asked puzzledly.
Zhang Hongshu patiently explained, "It's like this. Your new book has received a lot of praise not long after it was serialized. We are worried that if you go to join the army at this critical juncture, it may delay the serialization of the new book. Interruption of updates can easily lead to the loss of readers..."
Su Nuan smiled. She had thought about this a long time ago, so she was typing non-stop every day.
"Don't worry, editor-in-chief. With the manuscripts I have in hand, I can continue the series for another half a month. I will start writing as soon as I get to the family compound and try to continue the series."
Zhang Hongshu said worriedly, "The journey is long and the mail may not be delivered in time. The best way is for you to finish writing the new book before joining the army."
Su Nuan looked embarrassed. "We have packed a lot of things and mailed them in advance. And you just said that the journey is long. It will not be safe for me to take the train to the army alone."
"Editor Zhang, I understand your concerns, but the longer you take to convince me now, the less time I will be able to write."
Zhang Hongshu swallowed the words back when they came to his mouth.
Before leaving, Zhang Hongshu reminded him, "We won't bother you anymore. Try to save as many manuscripts as possible before you leave."
"OK."
After watching the two leave, Su Nuan went back to her room to continue writing.
On the other side, Wang Kangmei caught up with Zhang Hongshu and Zheng Xiangrong, "Are you two from the newspaper?"
Zhang Hongshu didn't understand, but still responded: "Yes, I'm the editor-in-chief of Dongfeng Newspaper."
When Wang Kangmei heard this, a few cracks appeared on her face. It seemed that Su Nuan, the country girl, was really a writer.
She didn't give up and asked again, "Su Nuan wrote for your newspaper?"
Zhang Hongshu's guard suddenly rose. It was okay to ask about his identity, but not about his identity as a writer!
Who knows if the other party is poached by a competitor?
After all, besides Dongfeng Newspaper, there are several other newspapers in the country!
The reason why their Dongfeng Newspaper ranks first is because they have many excellent writers.
None of these writers can be lost.
Needless to say, there is someone as outstanding as Yue Haitang.
Zhang Hongshu paused before asking, "Why are you asking about this?"
"Did someone ask you to help find out?"
"Which newspaper is behind you?"
Faced with Zhang Hongshu's three consecutive questions, Wang Kangmei was a little panicked.
It felt like she was not a good citizen but an enemy agent.
"I'm just asking out of curiosity..."
"This is a very private matter, I advise you not to gossip about it." Zhang Hongshu said and walked away.
Zheng Xiangrong followed in small steps, leaving behind Wang Kangmei who looked like she had just been fed shit.
She couldn't help but mutter, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Why are you so fierce?"
…
At this time, Li Tiantian was sitting on a hard seat holding her things. Her butt was hurting so much, but seeing so many people standing, she thought it was great to have a seat to sit.
The comrades sitting in the same row with her were all educated youth who were sent to work in the countryside. They didn't know each other, so there was little topic to talk about along the way.
Li Tiantian was also worried about encountering scammers, so she was very cautious and had no mood to chat with others.
The train swayed to the next stop. The aisle was crowded with people. Some were eager to get off, while others were eager to get on. In short, the scene was very chaotic.
Li Tiantian had two big Tuanjie banknotes on her, which was a huge sum of money for her, so she sat even more uneasy, always feeling like she was being targeted by a thief.
Li Tiantian was worried and her sitting posture became stiff.
The female educated youth sitting next to her couldn't help asking, "Aren't you tired like this?"
Li Tiantian pursed her lips and shook her head, holding the package even tighter.
Before leaving, Ye Hong warned her not to talk to strangers, as the bad guys had drugs that could make people lose consciousness after smelling them, so she had to be extra careful as a girl out there.
It was finally noon and the carriage was filled with all kinds of smells. It wasn't bad, but it was definitely unpleasant.
People around started to eat to fill their stomachs. Li Tiantian took out a corn and ate it. Even though she felt choked, she only drank a little water. It was inconvenient to carry so many things every time she went to the toilet. She thought about avoiding going to the toilet as much as possible.
After filling their stomachs, everyone's enthusiasm for chatting was unprecedentedly high.
Li Tiantian listened on the side and rarely spoke.
If people around her hadn't heard her speak, they would have thought she was mute!
Suddenly, the female comrade sitting opposite Li Tiantian asked her, "You must have bought this dress in a department store, right?"
“It looks better quality than the ones we made ourselves.
