As the car prepared to depart, Gao Ming poked his head out of the window, intending to bid his grandmother farewell. However, he found that she had already walked away, cradling Su Le in her arms, leaving him with nothing but her retreating figure.

He awkwardly retreated back into the car, not daring to strike up a casual conversation with Su Bing. Instead, he turned to Su Li and said with a hint of frustration, “I can’t tell anymore, brother, whether she’s my grandmother or Lele’s…”

On the other side of town, Gu Zi leisurely pedaled her bicycle towards the newspaper office. She had left home with plenty of time to spare, so she wasn’t worried about being late.

When she arrived near the office, she felt a bit thirsty. After parking her bicycle, she bought a bottle of sweet water to quench her thirst. The sweet water of this era had no distinct flavor, it was simply sweet, a pure sweetness, enhanced with food coloring, which made it look vibrant.

Gu Zi didn’t concern herself with the potential health risks of the added coloring. She only drank it occasionally, and it seemed to her that the added coloring was a minor issue compared to the various additives found in future beverages. Perhaps this sweet water was even healthier!

She took another sip, rummaged through her cross-body bag, and put on her employee badge.

As she walked through the newspaper office’s main entrance and was about to ascend the stairs, she saw Wu Hao descending.

She initially wanted to avoid him, but Wu Hao’s sharp eyes spotted her immediately. He quickened his pace, calling out, “Gu Zi, hello! You’re here for work!”

Upon seeing Gu Zi, Wu Hao was like a moth drawn to a flame. Fortunately, as he approached her, he realized his over-enthusiasm and slowed his pace, stopping at a respectful distance. Although he had come back late and missed his chance to pursue Gu Zi, he was still thrilled to be her colleague.

Gu Zi felt a bit uncomfortable and took a step back, forcing a smile as she responded, “Hello, Reporter Wu. Are you heading out for work? I need to hurry upstairs to report in.”

Wu Hao looked at Gu Zi, his enthusiasm undiminished. “I’m not in a rush to leave. Gu Zi, if you’re nervous, I can accompany you upstairs. I can help you.”

Gu Zi could only respond with a forced laugh, declining his offer as she ascended the stairs. “No need, no need. There won’t be anything too difficult on my first day. Reporter Wu, you should go about your business. I’ll head upstairs first.”

After saying this, Gu Zi hurriedly ascended the stairs, thinking to herself that even if she needed help, she wouldn’t seek it from Wu Hao. She intended to maintain a distance from him and avoid unnecessary interactions. Fortunately, Wu Hao didn’t insist and didn’t follow her upstairs.

Upon reaching the office area, Gu Zi went straight to her workstation. As it was her first official day at work, she felt it necessary to greet her colleagues. However, as she approached the main office area, she noticed that everyone was engrossed in their work. She didn’t want to disturb them, so she remained silent.

However, some of her colleagues noticed her presence and quietly greeted her. Others were struck by Gu Zi’s beauty and couldn’t help but steal glances at her. Even those who initially didn’t plan on wasting time greeting the newcomer made an effort to introduce themselves. “You must be the new foreign language editor. You’re even more beautiful than we expected!”

“Not just beautiful, but also very capable. After all, she was recommended by our Reporter Guan!” As these words spread, more and more people noticed Gu Zi. They all gathered around, engaging her in friendly conversation.

Gu Zi responded patiently and attentively. After all, it was a professional setting, and some socializing was inevitable. Moreover, her colleagues seemed nice, and she wanted to leave a good impression on them.

While chatting, Gu Zi scanned the room but didn’t see Guan Xin. She must have been out on an assignment. But hadn’t she called to arrange lunch together today?

Guan Xin must have been called away on urgent business. As for the editor-in-chief and deputy editor-in-chief, their seats were empty. Just as Guan Xin had said, it was rare to see these two leaders in the office.

Feeling that she had socialized enough, Gu Zi excused herself, “I need to go see Director Jiang now. After I receive my work assignment, we can all discuss it together.”

Everyone understood. It was Gu Zi’s first day at work, and they didn’t know whether Director Jiang would be satisfied with her. They had a meeting later, and Gu Zi, as the newcomer, needed to participate. They let her go, fearing she might not make it in time.

Once Gu Zi left, everyone dispersed and returned to their desks.

Gu Zi crossed the hallway and entered the office area on the opposite side of the main office. Upon entering, she saw a woman in her fifties sitting in a small cubicle, engrossed in writing something. Her concentration was intense.
