After the winter solstice, classes resumed in the school. Lin Wanwan instructed the children to come to school on an empty stomach to eat pagoda sugar the next day. The children didn’t understand anything about deworming; they only knew that having candy made them happy. As expected, they all arrived at school hungry the next day. Old Teacher Chen also received two pieces of pagoda sugar that day. Although he claimed not to believe Lin Wanwan’s talk about having worms in the stomach, he actually ate the pagoda sugar faster than the children. After spending some time with Lin Wanwan, he had seen many amazing things about her. She seemed to be raised by an old immortal, resembling a little deity who knew a bit of everything. After distributing to the children, Lin Wanwan wanted to share some with the clan members, but everyone refused. Adults didn’t need candy, better to leave it for the children. As for deworming, no one listened. Everyone was strong and healthy, capable of fighting sharks; how could there possibly be worms in the stomach? Impossible! This thought was shattered when the children started screaming "aao" during toilet breaks upon discovering worms falling out. It turned out everyone did have worms in their stomachs! Drinking raw water and being unhygienic could indeed cause worms! Terrifying! Such long worms in the intestines, wouldn’t they gnaw on the body every day? "Aao! Teacher Lin, help!" The crowd suddenly felt their stomachs ache, rushing to Lin Wanwan’s place for that pagoda sugar to expel worms. For adults, pagoda sugar wasn’t as effective, nowhere near the effect it had on children. But for the people of Lin Family Manor in Great Tang, it was better than nothing. After this wave of deworming, the sanitation of the entire manor improved significantly. Personally extracting long worms from one’s body was too terrifying an experience, never wanting to go through it again. That evening, Lin Wanwan, who hadn’t returned to the modern era for a long time, opened the Space-Time Gate to go back after Qingyu fell asleep. The phone placed on the bedside table was filled with unread messages. After replying to those needing replies and deleting the unnecessary ones, she finally stopped. As for the unfamiliar calls, she ignored all of them except for returning a call to Lu Shouyue, who had called her seven or eight times during this time. Once the call connected, Lu Shouyue’s magnetic voice echoed: "Wanwan, you finally appeared! Not answering calls or messages made me think something happened, almost went to your place looking for you." Lin Wanwan laughed: "No, I just went out for a while, the signal was bad outside. Is there something you need from me, Teacher Lu?" Lu Shouyue said: "Can’t contact you without a reason? I consider us friends." "Haha, you can. But I’m often not online with my phone." "You’re really mysterious. Did you go somewhere to collect good goods again?" "No, I just went to see the world." "Next week there’s a big art exhibition in Sea City. Are you interested in exhibiting your painting? Oh, it’s Elder He who asked me to inquire, he’s one of the organizers of this exhibition." Lin Wanwan pondered for a moment and said: "I’ll pass, I don’t want to be so flashy." "Alright, I’ll let him know. Are you interested in attending the exhibition to see other paintings?" "No, not interested." "Besides paintings, many antiques will be showcased. Really not going?" "No, I won’t go." Lin Wanwan had little interest in modern social engagement. With such cold weather, she wasn’t eager to move. She just wanted to teach the kids in Great Tang and play with Qingyu. Seeing her resolute attitude, Lu Shouyue didn’t press further. Although it was indeed a good opportunity to enter the collection world, Lin Wanwan wasn’t interested, so be it. He brought up another topic: "Your friend, who was hit at the old Bund last time, is now a minor internet celebrity due to the news buzz. My associate said she signed with our company." "Are you talking about Chen Jinyu?" "Congratulations on signing a promising talent." Lin Wanwan laughed, then chatted a bit more before planning to end the call. Just then, Lu Shouyue brought up another matter: "Do you have time during New Year’s? The company arranged for your friend to participate in the New Year’s Eve gala held by Orange TV in Qiong Ya. Do you want to join and support her?" Lin Wanwan found herself hesitating: "Really now..." "Why not check out your friend’s debut on stage? Plus, I have VIP tickets; won’t you grace us with your presence?" "Okay sure, I’ll take you up on that." Hearing his words, Lin Wanwan readily agreed. The New Year’s Eve gala sounded quite fun, and if it’s truly Chen Jinyu’s debut, she indeed had some interest in watching. After the call, she checked Chen Jinyu’s social media. As expected, she postedLittle Pink Book and Weibo accounts, indicating her intention to really enter the entertainment industry. Ah, one must admit, Chen Jinyu was smart and adept at seizing opportunities. Even during her student years, she was the go-to person for various events, showcasing her talent. Follow current novels on novel★fire.net Unlike Lin Wanwan, who couldn’t handle social activities and would only wait for Chen Jinyu to invite her to participate. She sent Chen Jinyu a message on WeChat: "Jinyu, how have you been? Is your injury healed?" "Pretty much healed. Been applying Scar Removal Ointment daily, the scar’s very faint, invisible with makeup. I returned to Yongzhou the day before yesterday, but you didn’t answer my calls. What were you doing? We agreed, once I return, to have a meal together." "Glad you’re healed. The meal can wait, we’ll have opportunities." "Ah, if only you had messaged me yesterday, now it’s too late, I’m already at the airport." "Where are you going?" "Haha, I can secretly tell you, but you must keep it confidential since the official announcement hasn’t been made yet." "Sure, definitely keeping mum." "I signed with an entertainment company, planning to venture into the industry. Now heading to Qiong Ya earlier for rehearsals, preparing for the New Year’s event. You can catch me on TV then." Across the screen, Lin Wanwan felt Chen Jinyu’s joy and pride, couldn’t help but smile. It seemed her dream was coming true. Every girl who worked as etiquette and model dreamt of becoming famous. Unlike Lin Wanwan, who was solely motivated by life’s circumstances to work, such individuals were rare. "Alright then, best wishes for your success." "(#^.^#) Thank you, love you, gotta go, boarding now, chat later." After finishing her social activities on the phone, proving she was alive and well, Lin Wanwan changed out of ancient attire, donned jeans and a down jacket, ready for another big shopping trip.
