Wen Li glanced at the contract; the specified period was exactly three months.
Mokuzuki Shinmi seemed a little hesitant, then said, "It certainly won't be as high a salary as you'd get for participating in other variety shows, but it would be helpful for your future archaeological work, and..."
"And what?"
“We found this ancient tomb to be a bit strange. There are many passageways inside. The archaeological team went down and walked for more than three hours, but finally returned to the starting point without even finding the burial chamber. Moreover, there are many strange runes at the entrance. You understand this kind of thing, so you are the most suitable candidate.”
When Wen Li heard that it would take three hours to walk back to the starting point, she immediately became interested.
“I’ll go,” Wen Li immediately said.
Mu Shuxin hadn't expected Wen Li to agree so readily, and this time it was he who hesitated: "Why don't you take a look at the contract first? This documentary won't give you any money; it's a charity project, you..."
"That's it. My agent hasn't arranged any work for me yet. He would definitely agree if he knew I was going to be on CCTV."
Many celebrities want to get on board but can't, but she managed to get right on the threshold thanks to her teacher: "I'll tell Brother Zhou right away."
Mu Shuxin smiled and told Wen Li to go back and make a call. If her agent agreed, she would go to Mangbei Mountain with him in three days.
Wen Li sent a message to Zhou Xingyun.
Upon seeing the contract, Zhou Xingyun immediately said, "Go ahead. I've been researching this documentary before, and I even sent your basic information to the producer. They probably thought you were a popular celebrity and didn't reply."
Unexpectedly, after going through many twists and turns, the contract ended up with Wen Li in the end.
Wen Li signed the contract immediately.
Zhou Xingyun is a seasoned agent after all. Even though it's a documentary and Wen Li is just an intern on it, he still pays great attention to her outfits. In the afternoon, Zhou Xingyun had Xiao Xi bring over three suitcases.
Since Xiaoxi is young, she can naturally go directly to Wenli's dormitory.
She glanced at Wen Li's bed and asked solicitously, "Do you need me to tidy up your dorm room?"
Wen Li shook her head.
Xiaoxi was somewhat disappointed upon seeing this.
She used to think that celebrities had too many responsibilities, but now she feels uneasy because she feels that celebrities don't have to do anything and she still gets paid a salary every month.
"This is what Brother Zhou prepared for you. Each set of clothes has a label attached. You can just take out what you want to wear each day. If you can't wash your clothes over there, we'll send you clothes every month."
Wen Li's clothes are mostly given to her by the Wen family, and they are all the latest seasonal styles or custom-made.
As Xiao Xi spoke, Tian Yuzhi, who was standing to the side, was stunned: "Where are you going with Professor Mu?"
Xiao Xi glanced at Tian Yuzhi, thinking that since she was her roommate, there was no need to hide it from her: "Professor Mu is taking our Xiaoli to a documentary, and she'll be leaving in a couple of days."
Tian Yuzhi's face immediately turned ugly, as if she were saying, "Why should I?"
Tan Xiaoxiao, who was reading a book, looked up upon hearing this, somewhat surprised: "Professor Mu chose you? Will you come back next semester? Will you fall behind in your studies?"
Wen Li honestly replied, "I have already finished the courses for next semester."
At this point, Wen Li was taken aback, suddenly realizing that Professor Mu might have planned to take her there from the very beginning.
As Tian Yuzhi listened to their conversation, her expression grew increasingly grim.
Xiao Xi sat in the dormitory for a while before going back. As for Tian Yuzhi, she left with a gloomy expression while the others were talking.
When Tan Xiaoxiao realized she wasn't there, she was taken aback: "When did she leave?"
Wen Li noticed it early on: "He probably went to see Professor Mu."
Tan Xiaoxiao: ...
Some people only realize their true worth after being thoroughly humiliated.
On the other hand, Tian Yuzhi did indeed head straight for Professor Mu's office after leaving her dormitory.
Now that it's the holidays and there's not much going on at school, Professor Mu brought Miao Miao over, and they're playing together in his office right now.
Hearing a knock on the door, Professor Mu put the child on a chair: "Do your homework first."
Then he turned to the door and let Tian Yuzhi, who was outside, in.
Upon seeing that the person who entered was Tian Yu, Mu Shuxin was taken aback: "What do you want?"
Tian Yuzhi blushed and lowered her head, saying, "Professor Mu, I heard that you asked Wen Li to participate in the documentary 'Searching for the Past'?"
When Miao Miao heard the name Wen Li, she paused in her homework and stared intently at Tian Yuzhi with her dark, bright eyes.
Professor Mu gave Tian Yuzhi a sharp look, and finally gave a faint "hmm".
Tian Yuzhi became even more nervous: "Professor Mu, could you mentor me as well? I really love archaeology, and I want to become an archaeologist like you in the future. I'm sure I'm no worse than Wen Li."
"Tian, I only have one spot left, and it's already given to Wen Li."
"Then could you give me Wen Li's spot?" Tian Yuzhi looked at Mu Shuxin with bright eyes. "You've seen how much I've improved in my final exams, so my future definitely won't be too bad. Wen Li is a celebrity; even without this documentary, she'll have others. But I really need to learn from you, I..."
“Tian,” Mu Shuxin interrupted her seriously, “I chose Wen Li not because I have a good relationship with her, nor because Wen Li is a celebrity. This spot was given to me by the higher-ups, who require students to be excellent in both character and academics. Wen Li ranked first in both the final exams and the midterm exams. Both officially and privately, this spot should belong to her.”
Mu Shuxin felt that she had explained herself very clearly.
Even if Wen Li doesn't get the spot, Tian Yuzhi wouldn't be chosen based on her grades.
Sure enough, Tian Yuzhi's face stiffened, her lips trembled, but after a few seconds she said sincerely, "Professor, please make an exception. I really need this program, and I will definitely repay you in the future."
