Thinking of this, Chen Yu immediately changed his attitude and said to Qiao Meng apologetically, "Xiao Qiao, I'm sorry, I was just worried about your safety and was a little anxious. My tone was a bit harsh. Please don't take it to heart."
"No...it's okay." Qiao Meng blushed as she heard Chen Yu's explanation.
"Hehe, Xiao Qiao, don't just stand there, get in the car," Chen Yu said with a smile.
"You're willing to take me with you?" Qiao Meng asked excitedly, a hint of disbelief and surprise flashing in her eyes.
"What do you think?" Chen Yu asked noncommittally, with a smile on his face.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Meng felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She nodded quickly, her eyes shining with determination: "Thank you, Mr. Chen Yu! I will cherish this opportunity and not only record your kindness, but also do my best to contribute to the disaster area."
As she spoke, Qiao Meng quickly opened the back door and climbed in.
At the same time, I quickly took out a thick notebook and pencil from my backpack, ready to record everything I saw and heard along the way.
Inside the car, the warmth contrasted sharply with the freezing cold outside. Once settled, Qiao Meng looked gratefully at Chen Yu, who was starting the car from the driver's seat. She took a deep breath, her heart filled with anticipation for the unknown journey and enthusiasm for the work that was about to begin.
"Let's go." Chen Yu called out to Feng Xinran and the others outside the car, then stepped on the gas, and the sled sped across the snow, leaving a series of deep ruts.
Watching the sled disappear into the snow, Feng Xinran sighed with a sense of loss. However, she quickly composed herself, her eyes shining with determination and understanding.
Since Chen Yu has entrusted her with such important tasks as guarding the granary and distributing food to the disaster victims, she must do her best no matter what.
Feng Xinran knew that she bore a heavy responsibility. She not only had to ensure the safety of the food supply, but also had to ensure that every grain of food was delivered accurately to the disaster victims who needed it most.
…………
Inside the sled, Qiao Meng sat upright, her eyes fixed on the scenery outside the window, her heart pounding with emotion. With each bump of the vehicle, her pen moved lightly across the paper, as if she could even perceive the vibrations in the air. The interior was warm and cozy, a stark contrast to the harsh cold outside, making Qiao Meng cherish even more this opportunity to go deep into the disaster area and record true stories.
“Mr. Chen Yu, could you tell me about the disaster relief activities you participated in before?” Qiao Meng broke the silence in the car, her voice filled with curiosity and respect for Chen Yu’s experiences.
"Pfft~" Lin Lele couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this question.
This reporter seemed a bit silly, which inexplicably made Lin Lele feel more favorably toward Qiao Meng.
Seeing Chen Yu glaring at her with hostility, Lin Lele quickly suppressed her smile, resumed her serious expression, and sat up straight.
Chen Yu looked at Qiao Meng through the rearview mirror and laughed, "Hehe, let's not discuss work matters for now."
"Xiao Qiao, I heard you're a native of Kyoto?"
Qiao Meng was slightly taken aback when she heard this, wondering why Chen Yu was asking this question at this time. However, she still nodded and replied, "Yes, I grew up and worked in Kyoto since I was a child."
"So, you know quite a few celebrities in Kyoto?" Chen Yu asked.
"Uh... I know a few people, but it's all just work-related interviews, nothing more than a personal relationship," Qiao Meng replied, her tone tinged with humility and caution.
As a journalist, although I have the opportunity to meet many public figures, I am not able to build deep friendships with many of them.
Chen Yu had anticipated this, but he didn't care, since he only wanted Qiao Meng to lead the way.
"Among the people you interviewed, how many are engaged in scientific research?" Chen Yu continued to ask.
Qiao Meng shook her head slightly: "I am too inexperienced. The station usually assigns me to interview social news and people's livelihood issues, so I don't get to come into contact with many experts in the field of scientific research."
"Is there a specific number? Or a well-known tech giant?"
Qiao Meng thought for a moment, then shook her head again: "I don't think so, I don't remember."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's face immediately darkened.
He was careless. He was careless just now. He let Qiao Meng get in the car without asking about the situation. What he needed was for Qiao Meng to find him a scientist, not those random so-called "celebrities"!
If even scientists can't find Qiao Mengruo, what's the point of bringing her along? Wouldn't she just be a burden?
However, since we've already let Qiao Meng get on the bus and traveled this far, we can't just throw her off.
Going back would only cause more trouble, so it's better to ask questions once and for all before making a decision.
So, Chen Yu quickly adjusted his emotions and a smile returned to his lips: "Xiao Qiao, who else is in your family? What do they do?"
Qiao Meng was caught off guard by Chen Yu's sudden change of topic. Wasn't he supposed to be out inspecting the disaster situation? Why was he asking about her family again? It was like a blind date.
Thinking of this, Qiao Meng's cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered, "Besides my parents and me, I also have a younger sister who just started university. My dad is a teacher, well... strictly speaking, a professor at Kyoto University, and my mom works in a similar field to me, also a journalist, but she is the editor-in-chief of the Daxia Science and Technology Daily."
"Wow~ They're all highly educated!" Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise and delight flashed in Chen Yu's eyes.
Isn't this the person he's been looking for?
With the assistance of a university professor and the editor-in-chief of a science and technology newspaper, wouldn't all the scientists in Kyoto be under his control?
