At the first sight, Cindy was shocked by Elsa's beautiful dress. She didn't expect Elsa to be so
outstanding. She put on a smile and said unhappily, "Elsa, it must cost a lot of money to buy such a
dress on the site of Taobao, huh? Can you send me a link of this online shop? My cousin keeps asking
me to get her some clothes."
Elsa did not want to lower herself to the same level as her. She said indifferently, "I'm sorry. There's no
such link. It was a gift from someone else."
"Is it a wedding gift?" Cindy asked. She had known said that Elsa got married with a poor man, who
was a P.E. teacher of a suburban high school. A man of an unpromising job, who didn't invite any of the
colleagues to their wedding, nor took advantage of this opportunity to build good relationships with their
superiors. It seemed that he had spent a lot of money buying this dress for Elsa. She really wanted to
see what else Elsa could change. It would be a big joke if she had to wear her white shirts and black
trousers again later.
Elsa didn't reply but slowly walked towards Johnny.
"Didn't your P.E. teacher come to send you here? Oh, I forgot that it's far from here in the suburbs."
Apparently, Cindy was not satisfied with Elsa's reaction. With a smile on her face, she said, "Wow, he
just leaves you alone so soon? What a pity! Since you are so beautiful."
"If you have so much time to care about me, why don't you put more effort to learn the 5W theory?" As
soon as Elsa finished saying that, she walked away, leaving Cindy behind.
Cindy was so angry that her face turned red.
Elsa approached Johnny and said, "I saw that you were appointed to be the chief editor now. I wonder
why you want to meet me."
"Come to my office, Elsa." Johnny said seriously.
Elsa followed him in. She really hoped that he did have something of the work to talk with her. The
figure of his back was so familiar as if it had been engraved in her mind. She closed her eyes and
slowly opened them before she took a step forward.
"I am the new chief editor. You must be surprised, right?" Johnny said in a leisure manner, sitting on a
chair.
Elsa shook her head and said, "It's normal for those competents to occupy this position."
"Elsa, the newspaper has a plan recently. I want you to join it with me." He used to lean on the back of
the chair, but now he suddenly supported himself with both hands on the desk. He approached closer
to Elsa, looked a little anxious.
"Okay." Elsa responded at once.
Now it was Johnny who was surprised. How could she answer so quickly?
Elsa smiled and said, "I will do what my leader says."
Johnny knew that he couldn't play more tricks with Elsa. So he sat up straight and said, "Elsa, do you
know what kind of work it is? It's a good opportunity. Although we haven't decided yet, I will try my best
to get it for you. You should also behave yourself."
Elsa guessed she knew what it was. It was June. On the sixth and seventh month every year, the
newspaper would send a few people to the army to do some interviews. They would stay there for a
long time, a month or fifteen days. They needed to gather information and topics for the military pages
to welcome the arrival of the Army Day of August 1st.
Lingchuan city was one of the major military regions, so there would be many topics for the collection.
However, the military pages of "Linchuan Daily" was used to write some empty words. Its content and
theme were all introduced from foreign countries. There were no official reporters for these pages.
Every year at this time, the newspaper had to choose some journalists from other pages to stay in the
army base.
This year happened to be an integrate anniversary of the Army's Day. The leaders all paid much
attention to the training and celebration events of the army. There was early news that they would go to
the army in advance to carry out various follow-up interviews.
Elsa had already guessed what it was, but she didn't say anything. She was waiting for Johnny's
words.
"Elsa, I will take you to the interview in the army." Johnny said decisively.
"I see. Thank you for giving me this chance." Elsa wasn't used to being cynical. But she couldn't help
sneering at Johnny.
"Can you take off your wedding leave a few days in advance and come back for preparation?"
"No." Elsa said after a pause. If so, I will take back my decision."
"Elsa Xia! In this peaceful era, it was a great opportunity for everyone to go to the army and have an
interview. There were not only compensations, but you can also live and eat there for free and have a
good relax. Do you really like to go to work at seven o'clock and have an early meeting at eight o'clock
every morning? Do you really like to rush to some places far away as long as there is any news, even
in the midnight when something happens? Are you so fond of late night interviews and hurrying up to
finish your work in the early morning, and checking the design of the pages before printing? "
"This is my job, my choice. I deserve no complaints. And after escaped for one month. Aren't you going
to finish the interview when you come back? "
"Elsa, this is not an excuse to escape, but an opportunity to relax. It's just some empty words, and we
can write it easily. Do you know how many people want to go there? Let alone the other pages, only in
our society pages, there are quite a few people who are willing to go. But there are only four
places!"
