Chapter 8: A Dream Within Reach 05

The publication of "A Thousand Dreams" went smoothly, but she didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief until the new sample book was in Wen Shu's hands. She looked at the house that was becoming empty bit by bit, and she felt melancholy. After these things happened, Wen Shu didn't want to stay in Xuancheng anymore, and her job was very flexible, so it didn't matter where she went. Lu Si Ning supported her decision, but she didn't want to go to Xincheng anymore, she wanted to go back to Ancheng to accompany Wen Yan. Wen Shu naturally agreed, so that she and Grandpa Yu could take care of each other.
On the day she signed the house sale agreement with the buyer, she packed her belongings and prepared to go to the new city. Before leaving, she went to the studio to say goodbye.
No matter what, her youth and dreams are there.
When she arrived at the studio, everyone looked at her in astonishment.
Xiao Chen ran over and asked her , "Why are you here?"
Wen Shu smiled bitterly, she was really asking for trouble.
"I'm leaving Xuancheng and came to say goodbye to you, but now it seems that I'm not welcome at all."
Xiao Chen hurriedly explained: "It's not like that, it's just..."
Wen Shu asked back: "Just what?"
The people who answered her were Qi Qianchen and Xu Zishan, who were having a great conversation.
The two were also surprised when they saw her. Qi Qianchen quickly regained his composure, but Xu Zishan couldn't hide the smugness in her eyes, but she probably didn't want to hide anything.
"Editor-in-Chief Qi, thank you for taking care of me over the years." Looking at the two of them together, Wen Shu had some questions that she didn't understand, but they didn't matter anymore. She bowed to Qi Qianchen and turned to leave.
She had a smile on her face, a relief she had never felt before. She no longer had to be bound by favors and morals, and she and Qi Qianchen were no longer involved, which made her very happy.
"Wen Shu!" Wen Shu had not walked far when he unexpectedly found Xu Zishan catching up with him.
"Is there something?" Wen Shu continued walking forward.
"It's nothing, I just came to thank you. If it weren't for you, "Survival" wouldn't have sold so well!"
It turned out that they were here to demonstrate. Wen Shu stopped and said, "Really? Then congratulations."
Not achieving the expected effect, Xu Zishan was a little angry: "Are you not angry?"
Wen Shu curiously asked back: "Why should I be angry?"
Xu Zishan rolled up a lock of hair , sneered and said sarcastically: "You worked hard and uncomplainingly by Qi Qianchen's side for so many years, but in the end you were kicked out by him and became an abandoned child. You must feel bad."
Wen Shu replied expressionlessly: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm very relaxed and happy now."
"What's the point of you being stubborn with me!" Xu Zishan didn't believe it. Who would be willing to be pulled down from the altar like this? "People should have the courage to admit failure! Don't pretend to be strong now and then hide and cry. That's useless!"
Wen Shu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "Don't worry, I won't. " Wen Shu didn't want to argue any more, and just said, "Everyone knows who is right and who is wrong between "A Thousand Dreams" and "Chenghuo". I'll give you a piece of advice, maybe my today is your tomorrow."
"You're threatening me?"
"If you don't want to listen, just pretend I never said it." Wen Shu waved to stop a taxi, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry, I'm leaving first."
Xu Zishan, who was left there, looked at Wen Shu's receding figure. Her words reminded her of what Qi Qianchen said when he first found her.
"If I can help Wen Shu succeed, then I can naturally help Xu Zishan succeed. The opportunity is here, so consider carefully whether you want to seize it or not."
Although she knew that this might be a blueprint that would never come true, she was still bewitched by this sentence and agreed to join forces with him. She had worked hard for so many years, but had always been overshadowed by Wen Shu's brilliance. Now she finally had the opportunity to let more people see her and know her. Why should she give up!
And if it turns out that her decision was the right one, then she has nothing to be afraid of.
In her opinion, what Wen Shu said was just a last-ditch struggle and a desperate attempt to hold on. Her time had finally come!
As for the so-called truth, it’s not that important.
She sneered and walked away.
As the year draws to a close, the streets and alleys of the new city are hung with red lanterns and Chinese knots, making it look festive.
Downstairs of Yu Qianlin's apartment, he picked up Wen Shu who had just got off the plane, and the two of them started arguing again.
"Are you afraid that you will lose focus on work if you face such a handsome guy like me every day? It doesn't matter . I'm very busy, you don't have to worry about it."
Hearing him say those three words in a teasing tone, Wen Shu had the urge to strangle him to death. How could he be so shameless!
She looked at the people around her and didn't want to become a laughing stock on New Year's Day.
"Alright! Let's go home!" Yu Qianlin was so happy that he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He stretched out his hand, stared at it for two seconds, and then slowly put his hand into his palm.
Wen Shu's palm was cold, and Yu Qianlin couldn't help shivering when he touched it.
"Why are your hands so cold?"
Wen Shu said nonchalantly, "It's natural."
Yu Qianlin put their clasped hands into his pocket and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll keep you warm in the future."
Yu Qianlin contentedly took Wen Shu's hand and walked back step by step.
When they were almost at the door of their house, they happened to run into the neighbor's elder sister who was returning with her children from buying New Year's goods. Seeing them, she greeted them warmly: "Hey, Miss Wen, I haven't seen you for a while. Are you here to spend the New Year with Xiao Yu?"
Wen Shu nodded.
The eldest sister asked again: "When will we have wedding candy?"
This time it was Yu Qianlin who answered: "Almost there!"
Wen Shu glared at him: "How can it be fast!"
Yu Qianlin seemed not to notice and continued, " Can we ask you if we have any questions?"
"No problem!" The eldest sister almost patted her chest to promise, "I've been in charge of all the weddings for my younger brothers and sisters. I'm very experienced. Just come and ask me when the time comes, Xiao Wen!"
"Okay, then I'll thank you first." Wen Shu laughed dryly with a stiff face, and even changed the way he addressed people.
The eldest sister waved her hand and said, "Why are you being polite? We are all neighbors! OK! I won't chat with you guys anymore. I have to go home and put the kids to sleep."
Yu Qianlin stood beside Wen Shu and said with a smile, "Sorry to have delayed you."
"No way! Let's go!" The elder sister walked away with a smile, muttering at the end, "You two young people are really a perfect match!"
"Sister, you have a good vision. So do I." Yu Qianlin said this quite complacently. He suddenly took Wen Shu's hand and said seriously, "Let's go up quickly! It's too cold. If you catch a cold, I'll be so heartbroken!"
Wen Shu followed behind Yu Qianlin, looked at the two people's tightly clasped hands, and suddenly smiled. The discomfort he felt instantly disappeared.
The years are quiet and good, with you and me.
