It was dawn, and Lu Shouyue woke up, hearing the rhythmic sound of waves lapping in his ears.
In such a big room, he was the only one lying quietly. There was no soft and fragrant wife, nor a cute and lovely daughter.
He was in a daze for a moment before he remembered what night it was and where he was.
Everything in the dream was so real, but when I woke up, I found that it was just a dream.
His heart ached, as if his life had been tampered with by an unpredictable mysterious force.
Dreaming about Lin Wanwan again this time did not make Lu Shouyue feel ashamed, he only felt happy.
Everything in the dream was so real, so real that he could clearly recall every inch of Lin Wanwan's body.
But such memories quickly faded away after he got up and washed up. It was as if a thick layer of fog had separated him, hindering his thinking.
He obviously has a photographic memory, but within a short period of time, he could no longer recall the details of his dream.
The heavy fog fell in sheets, like a maze.
The only thing he still remembered was that he once again dreamed of Xiao Chong's fiancée, and that he loved her very much and wanted her all the time in the dream. It was an erotic dream without a trace.
In the morning, a group of people were eating the buffet breakfast prepared by the cruise ship's chef in the restaurant. Lu Shouyue unconsciously glanced at Lin Wanwan a few more times, feeling a sadness that felt like he had lived in another world welling up in his heart.
He sighed in his heart, thinking that if there was an afterlife, he would like to know Lin Wanwan earlier than Xiao Chong in his next life.
No matter how young she was then, he would wait patiently for her to grow into what he wanted her to be.
Xiao Chong was extremely sensitive to the change in Lu Shouyue's eyes. He frowned slightly, and his dark eyes paused on him for a moment, and then continued to finish breakfast slowly.
After the meal, Xiao Chong gently held Lin Wanwan's waist and said goodbye to Lu Shouyue.
After the greetings, he said: "Thank you very much, Brother Lu, for saving my wife last night. I will be of use to my younger brother in the future, but it depends on your orders."
Wife?
Lu Shouyue looked at him for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."
Xiao Chong and Lin Wanwan left. Lu Shouyue watched them get off the boat with unpredictable expressions and finally felt lonely.
Back in the dormitory, Lin Wanwan was surrounded by roommates Wu Xiangxiang and Chen Tianying who asked about the luxury cruise.
It turned out that the photo taken by Yan Yufei on the cruise ship yesterday was posted on WeChat Moments, which aroused everyone's curiosity.
Only then did Lin Wanwan learn that Yan Yufei did not return to the dormitory last night.
Not caring about satisfying Wu Xiangxiang's desire for gossip, she took out her mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Yan Yufei, asking her where she was and if everything was okay.
Yan Yufei's message came back quickly: "It's okay, I'm at my boyfriend's house now. I'll go back to the dormitory tonight, don't worry about me."
Yesterday, she clearly didn't hear any intention of finding a boyfriend from Yan Yufei. Even when she got off the high-speed train and got on the last subway train back to school, she sent Lin Wanwan a WeChat message to report that she was safe.
So at least it means that at that time, Yan Yufei was not looking for a boyfriend.
It was only after eleven o'clock that a temporary decision was made.
If her boyfriend cares about her, shouldn't he make an appointment in advance? After all, after 11pm, it is not a suitable date time anyway.
Or is this the surprising daily experience of falling in love with a celebrity?
Lin Wanwan put away her phone and shook her head slightly. She felt a little dissatisfied, but she wouldn't say anything to others.
Wu Xiangxiang and Chen Tianying were still asking her about yesterday's luxury cruise. Lin Wanwan talked about some of her part-time jobs, but kept silent for the rest.
In May, Lin Wanwan made an appointment with Ye Pang and officially signed a summer internship contract with China Television.
Because the dust had settled, Lin Wanwan told her roommate about the incident.
When Wu Xiangxiang heard this, he suddenly said: "Yes, you can also find an internship at a TV station! I want to try it too. Wanwan, how did you find this opportunity?"
Of course, Lin Wanwan would not tell the truth, even if the other person was her roommate. After all, she got in through some unspeakable means.
So she casually said that the resume was sent through the mobile app, and it was some kind of job search.
Wu Xiangxiang really believed it, downloaded several job-hunting software, and submitted her resume like crazy. She also wanted to have a good internship experience during the summer vacation.
Maybe Wu Xiangxiang is good enough. In terms of academics, although she is not as high-ranking as she was in high school, she is not bad either. She is still above average.
By the time of the final exam in June, Wu Xiangxiang actually got the opportunity to intern at China Television Station.
Lin Wanwan was quite happy to have a companion.
As for Chen Tianying, she is getting better at writing novels. She must be focusing on this during the summer vacation and has no interest in a nine-to-five internship.
Yan Yufei did not envy the two of them their summer jobs. She even meaningfully wished them a happy internship.
No one is allowed to live in the dormitory during the summer vacation, and your application to live on campus may not be successful if you haven't chosen a course.
Only then did Lin Wanwan realize that Wu Xiangxiang's internship did not have separate dormitories, no internship contract was signed, and there was still zero pay.
From what Wu Xiangxiang said, all the interns in their batch were treated like this. The information she got from the senior brothers and sisters at her radio station also showed that they were treated like this.
Lin Wanwan was shocked, because she was provided with food and accommodation, as well as internship salary. These were all written in black and white in the contract.
She didn't know why Wu Xiangxiang and others didn't go to China TV Station for internship.
After calming down and thinking about it, Lin Wanwan realized that it was Fatty Ye who took extra care of her for Xiao Chong's sake.
Oh, no, you can’t call me Fat Ye, it’s Teacher Ye!
This made Lin Wanwan wonder whether she should tell Wu Xiangxiang about her treatment.
After thinking about it, Lin Wanwan chose a dormitory with arranged accommodation and talked about it. Because Wu Xiangxiang asked her to rent a room together and share the rent, and Lin Wanwan didn't need it, so she simply told the truth.
Hearing that Lin Wanwan actually had a dormitory to live in, Wu Xiangxiang felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks.
Lin Wanwan didn't get used to her either, so she yelled back on the spot.
At the beginning of the internship, the roommates had a little unpleasantness.
Fortunately, after becoming roommates this year, the two of them have actually gotten used to living in the same dormitory, and they will get along quickly after arguing, otherwise it would be awkward to get along.
Xiao Chong will also participate in the recording of Huaxia TV programs this summer, but he does not need to stay in the station as long as Lin Wanwan.
He only needed to record two sessions, one to two days each. In such a short period of time, his agent negotiated a seven-figure appearance fee for him.
This amount of money is of course not comparable to the tens of millions that popular stars can earn from variety shows. But compared only to those in the literary and art circles, it is almost at the top.
Those old artists who have a lot of titles and are very powerful, because they have little exposure and traffic, the appearance fee is just over six figures at most.
Like this classical inheritance program, the people invited to the station are basically top figures in various projects, but the appearance fees of all of them are not as good as Xiao Chong, or even only a fraction of his. Who can tell Xiao Chong has traffic?
!
Moreover, he also has a gimmick to reveal the true face of "Qingyang" in Lushan, which can attract traffic to the program team.
Qingyang Live is still very good in the live broadcast industry, and his number of fans has exceeded 20 million.
Even though the number of fans is less than the tens of millions of big Internet celebrities and traffickers, the number of people online during his live broadcast is high, and the number of replays and likes is higher.
At a time when short videos are becoming more and more popular, Guqin, which originally had high-pitched music, has entered the sinking market because of the existence of "Qingyang".
After Lin Wanwan learned that Xiao Chong had two episodes in total, which added up to two to four days of working time, Lin Wanwan said that it was very annoying to compare people to each other.
She shouldn't have asked, it was too shocking.
Seeing that Xiao Chong's appearance fee was so high, Lin Wanwan couldn't help but wonder if she had any skills that could be monetized.
I racked my brains and thought about it. It seemed that I had studied calligraphy for a few years in the school's free interest group when I was in elementary school, but it was completely amateur level and I couldn't use it at all. It was actually useless.
Lin Wanwan looked in the mirror and felt that if she wanted to make a fortune, she might have to rely on her beauty. For example, she could agree to a talent scout and package her debut or something.
But when she thought about the beautiful starlets she saw during those working days, she quickly strangled her unreliable thoughts to death.
There is no shortage of beauties in this world. Few girls are ugly even if they dress up. How many beauties can succeed in the bizarre entertainment industry?
It would be better for her to find a stable and decent job.
After spending a month in the library, Lin Wanwan packed up and moved into the dormitory center of China TV Station the day after finishing the last course.
She was lucky enough to be assigned a single apartment, only five stops away from the TV station.
Well, maybe it's not entirely because of luck, Lin Wanwan knows it well.
During the summer vacation of her freshman year, she worked part-time in society for a year and came into contact with all kinds of people. She was no longer as naive as she was in high school.
On her first day as an intern at a television station, Lin Wanwan experienced the hardships of being a social worker.
As a freshly-minted intern, she arrived in Taili at 9:50 in the morning on her first day (official start time at 10:00) and worked until 8:00 in the evening.
Fortunately, the video calls between her and her grandfather were made every morning. It would have been more troublesome if it were done at night.
The teacher who taught Lin Wanwan was a copy editor in the station. He was in his thirties and was not particularly easy to get along with.
What Lin Wanwan did was basically to do odd jobs for her, including helping her run errands and make coffee, etc. There was no substantive work such as writing or reviewing manuscripts.
On just the first day, Lin Wanwan felt strongly about the hierarchy between seniors and juniors, leaders and subordinates in this kind of unit.
She felt that this kind of environment was not what she liked.
But making money is not easy! Thinking about the internship salary she could get, the slight discomfort and discomfort disappeared.
During her break from work, she contacted Wu Xiangxiang via WeChat and asked her about the situation there. The feedback she received was that she was very busy.
They were recording a program over there, and Wu Xiangxiang said that she might have to work overtime until 11 p.m. According to the teacher who took her there, the women there were used as men, the men were used as dogs, and the interns were used as screws!
When Lin Wanwan heard this, she thought it was too miserable! The main reason was that Wu Xiangxiang paid for the internship and rented his own house!
When Lin Wanwan came out of the TV station after get off work in the evening, Xiao Chong was waiting in the parking lot.
She actually didn't need him to pick her up. After the KTV incident where she beat up the greasy man, she was very confident in her own power.
However, Xiao Chong insisted on coming, saying that not seeing him for one day was like three autumns, so she naturally followed him.
The main reason is that Lin Wanwan actually misses him too. The two of them eat together every day in school, and they are suddenly separated. They don't even have time to send a few messages on WeChat. It's very unaccustomed.
"Is the TV station so busy?" Xiao Chong also didn't expect that Lin Wanwan would have to work overtime until eight o'clock on her first day of internship. She didn't have time to go out for lunch and dinner, so she ate in the free canteen.
Since it was free, it would definitely not be as delicious. Xiao Chong expressed his heartache and said that he would order food for her tomorrow.
She was firmly rejected by Lin Wanwan. She didn't want to be special and there was nothing wrong with following the crowd and eating in the cafeteria.
"Actually, it's a buffet over there. It's really not that bad."
"Wanwan, you can be more delicate and don't have to be so strong."
Lin Wanwan looked unconcerned. She didn't want Xiao Chong to worry about her: "It's really okay, and I don't have many things to do. The main thing is that the teacher who takes care of me is working overtime, so I can't walk faster than
She's early."
"It's not impossible to leave earlier than her."
"How can that be done!"
Because it was late and the internship had to continue tomorrow, the two went directly back to Lin Wanwan's internship dormitory, drank Coke and ate snacks together, sat in front of the laptop and watched half of the movie, treating it as a date.
When Xiao Chong left, Lin Wanwan was still a little reluctant, but in the end she didn't say anything and tried her best to restrain herself!
Otherwise, the two of them would have a hard time getting a good night's sleep.
The next week was basically the same.
The only thing that made Lin Wanwan feel balanced was that Wu Xiangxiang was in a worse situation than her. He got off work at seven or eight o'clock early every day and until eleven or twelve o'clock every day.
This is really a free intern, work hard to make it!
A week later, Lin Wanwan continued her internship, while Xiao Chong went traveling all over the world with his buddies.
However, Lin Wanwan said that she was not envious at all!
If she had time, she would rather go back to Yongcheng to see her grandfather.
Isn’t tourism just about a bunch of people going to a city where another bunch of people are bored, spending money and being burdened for a day or two?
It's definitely not because she is sour.
Well, let’s believe her for now.
If you ask people who are stuck in summer travel, if they are so tired after a trip, will they go there next time? Ten percent of them will answer: Still going!
Life is about tossing and turning, and being in a pool of stagnant water is meaningless.
When Xiao Chong returned from his trip, Lin Wanwan's internship life finally ushered in a change - Teacher Ye's new program began to count down to recording, and she was seconded to the new program group. Coincidentally, Wu Xiangxiang also came.
The two of them didn't know it, they just felt that they were exhausted all day long and made no progress at all.
But the seniors who were responsible for taking care of them were very positive about them. They said privately that they were worthy of being from Peking University and had not disgraced the school's brand name. This was the reason why they were borrowed by the new program.
Among this group of interns, they were the only two from top prestigious schools. In fact, they attracted attention as soon as they entered.
Free interns are frowned upon by most students from top universities. Their goal is to study abroad and pursue graduate studies, and they have little interest in work.
