Chapter 57: 56. Forced to refresh one’s worldview/values

A new day began, and the click rate of “Journey Together” continued to rise on the video website.

The topic of Director Xie and Tang Shu also climbed relentlessly.

In Sister Luo’s words, the number of fans was growing exponentially.

“Oh my, the timing of your nine-grid photoshoot was spot on!”

“The fan count has already surpassed two and a half million, even the mathematicians can’t keep up now!”

Standing in front of a lush expanse of Exquisite Plant, Tang Shu faced the phrase “exponential growth” with slight perplexity for a while, then resolutely stuffed her phone into her pocket.

Modern mathematics was completely different from Damo National Mathematics; she had only understood a tiny bit by memory, and thought she might need to brush up on advanced math or something when she got back.

Thinking thus, Tang Shu bowed her head and began to immerse herself in her work.

Xie Yunzhen and several employees of Cloudscape Group greeted her, carrying a small package and trotted over energetically.

“Tang Shu, can I help you out?”

The difference in his attitude compared to yesterday was so stark that it left her feeling like she was in a different world.

“You… just follow what we did yesterday.”

Tang Shu looked around and decisively made this decision.

I must say, his talent in medicine had hit rock bottom.

Have him do more? Sorry, but that would probably mean not finishing the task within two days.

Xie Yunzhen pursed his lips and droopily nodded in acknowledgement, “Okay then.”

However, he soon regained his former liveliness, keeping both hands busy while fishing for gossip.

“Tang Shu, Tang Shu, have you really only practiced with darts, like the ones in bars?!”

“Yeah.”

“I know how to play that too, but why don’t I have your accuracy and strength?”

“Things like this also require talent.”

Tang Shu kept her movements steady and her replies casual.

Xie Yunzhen: “…”

Is this a normal way to chat?

You’ll have no friends if you keep this up!

“You really didn’t audition for ‘Heroes in Troubled Times’?”

“Obviously.”

“So you’ve met Director Xie in person then? What was his reaction, tell me, tell me!”

Tang Shu raised her eyelids to meet a pair of gossip-filled eyes and immediately twitched at the corner of her mouth.

“I haven’t met him.”

“…What? Really haven’t?”

“Really.”

As soon as she finished speaking, it seemed as if his head drooped even lower, and his enthusiasm was halved instantly.

Tang Shu paused, a hint of confusion passing through her eyes.

Was this… the disappointment one shows when they can’t hear about their idol?

What she didn’t know was that her unreliable and hindering partner had sent a WeChat message to his mother during lunch.

[Xie Yunzhen]: “Mother dearest, you’ll need to worry, my second brother is unrequited in love!”

It took them three full days to finish the work on the Exquisite Plant in the ancient village.

In those three days, several legal staff members from Cloudscape Group came to respect Tang Shu immensely.

“Consultant Tang, the ointment you provided for mosquito bites and swelling is really effective, even better than what we usually buy!”

“Absolutely, it’s miraculous, getting bitten by mosquitoes on the first night and looking like a mess, we thought we were in for suffering!”

“Who would have thought, your ointment would be so potent!”

“Consultant Tang, are you really not considering selling in a pharmacy or something? The people nationwide need you—”

…

If people harbored doubts about this obscure, not-quite-starlet on the first day, after three days of interaction, they found their worldviews being constantly upended.

How could someone be so perfect?

With a presence to rival their own CEO’s, a beauty that surpassed any influencer, a mastery of herb processing on par with the experts, and the concoction of miraculous medicine…

All these aspects made them look at her in a new light.

“Damn, I was blind before, to doubt that President Jing had given someone else a shortcut!”

“Exactly, why is President Jing better than us? Isn’t it because of his unique insight!”

“Such a misjudgment, as legal staff, I never imagined I’d become a fan of a celebrity one day!”

The group was overly enthusiastic; had it not been for the host exuding a don’t-approach-me vibe, they probably would have rushed over to hug her tightly.

Tang Shu creased her lips and took half a step back.

“No need. If you think the medicine is good, that’s fine with me.”

She was starting to regret having softened her heart and distributed the ointment that day.

Jing Yu pinched the bridge of his nose, sent the others off in the car, and cleared the space around her.

“Consultant Tang, I have another favor to ask of you.”

“Please, Mr. Jing.”

“Yesterday, I spoke with Professor Yu on the phone. He mentioned that there is a patch of Snow Soul Grass nearby, which is highly unique in its medicinal properties. He expressed his hope that I could discuss a cooperation with Mayor Min. Could you please guide the way?”

Tang Shu pondered for a moment and realized Professor Yu’s intention.

While Snow Soul Grass was highly toxic, if used correctly in medicine, it had benefits.

Even though the growth area was quite remote and seldom visited by people, accidents could sometimes happen.

It would be best to fence it off.

“Sure, shall we go now?”

It was already Tuesday morning, and it was her last day of leave.
