A perfect life begins with changing the timeline.

Li Mu, still hungover, was naturally not in good spirits. When he arrived at the No. 1 Middle School and met up with Sui Kuan, Shang Xiaobin, who was called "Brother Bin," immediately frowned.

But he didn't say anything, and simply led the two of them into the school to begin the interview.

He could use these two interns since they weren't assigned to his team, but he couldn't discipline them, even if he thought Xiao Li's work attitude wasn't very good.

After all, Bie Yan was standing right there.

Li Mu was indeed in a bad state at the moment. He had drunk a lot of alcohol last night and even stayed up all night. In addition, his stomach was empty and the weather in Guangzhou was hot... He felt no joy at the successful bid for the Olympics. All he felt was nausea from time to time.

Fortunately, Sui Kuan noticed his discomfort and asked, "Were you drunk last night?" After that, he took on a lot of his work.

That's how the interview went smoothly.

It was now noon.

After Shang Xiaobin drove the Santana back to the newspaper office with the two newcomers, Li Mu, holding the bowl of egg drop soup from the canteen, finally came back to his senses.

"We had a meeting this morning. The director told us to focus on the efforts made by all sectors in preparation for the successful bid for the Olympics."

Hearing Sui Kuan's words, Li Mu nodded:

"Okay, I understand. That's why I drank too much last night."

Sui Kuan responded.

He watched it on TV too, and when the city was announced, he yelled a few times, so he knew that kind of joy.

Unfortunately, the people living in his rented apartment didn't know each other, otherwise they would have celebrated.

After finishing a tasteless meal, Li Mu returned to his workstation and planned to take a nap. But just as he lay down on the table, the phone rang like a death knell.

It was Wang Fan calling.

Speechless, I walked out of the office. After answering the phone, the person on the other end asked:

"Mr. Li, I apologize for disturbing you during your lunch break. Are you free this afternoon?"

"What's wrong?"

"Here's the thing, we just received a fax from the embassy. They're starting visa interviews this afternoon. It might take you one to two hours..."

"Going to America?"

"Yes, we've completed all the other procedures. All that's left is to sign."

"Okay, what time?"

The time is set for 3:30 pm.

"Okay, send me the address."

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu quickly received the embassy address from the other party. Just as he was about to return to his workstation, the phone rang again.

This time it's Fan Bingbing's.

"Hey, Brother Li, have you received the notification?"

The other party got straight to the point:

"Notification from the embassy that an interview is required."

"I just received it, you received it too? Shall we go together?"

Fan Bingbing countered with a question:

"You mean the visa interview in Guangzhou? I was notified by Yanjing, and they told me to go for the interview tomorrow morning."

Clearly, the two people obtained their visas from different locations.

Fan Bingbing needs to return to Yanjing today in order to make her appointment for tomorrow morning.

It was quite unfortunate.

after all……

"I was even thinking of having dinner with Brother Li tonight and playing a couple of games of chess. Oh dear, how did things turn out like this? I should have just handled the formalities here in Guangzhou."

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, but there was nothing she could do.

Li Mu could only comfort her:

"It's nothing, it's just one more trip. When does your TV series start airing?"

"It's scheduled for September 20th... Sigh, Brother Li, I'll pack my things and head back to Yanjing now."

Without much hesitation, she immediately prepared to set off.

and……

"Perfect timing. I'll check back in the next few days and see if the prices at the place we chose have gone up."

Li Mu didn't try to stop her, nor was there any need to, since her words had struck a chord with him.

Besides, we're going to the US together in a few days.

After saying goodbye on the phone, he hung up, went back to his office to pack his things, and headed straight to the embassy in Guangzhou.

He arrived at the location around 2 PM, and a few minutes later, he spotted Wang Fan and two other people in bank uniforms getting off the bus in the distance.

Upon seeing Li Mu, the other person quickened their pace.

Through Wang Fan's introduction, it became clear that these two individuals were staff members involved in this business investment trip, handling everything from submitting paperwork to other tasks. After getting acquainted, the two began explaining to Li Mu what questions the interviewer would ask, such as how many properties he owned, how much savings he had, and the purpose of his trip to the United States…

Although this group of wealthy people went to the United States for investment and inspection, their visas were actually tourist visas.

The US has relatively strict controls to prevent people from going there and not returning.

So Li Mu listened to the interview tips taught by the two men, and then a Mercedes-Benz drove up.

A middle-aged man with an unusually large beer belly got out.

Wang Fan quickly went to greet him.

The man who looks like a boss is surnamed Wang and owns a furniture factory.

Under Wang Fan's introduction, Li Mu and the other party exchanged pleasantries. It was clear the man was surprised by Li Mu's youth, but he didn't say much. After a brief exchange of pleasantries and information, the two staff members quickly began instructing Mr. Wang on various matters requiring attention…

Then, as if by signal, following the arrival of this Mr. Wang, another five or six people arrived one after another.

Apart from Li Mu, the others seemed to know each other, and they could chat for a while.

Their conversation revolved around what they planned to do in the United States.

Although ostensibly going to invest, Brother Wang actually wanted to see the Statue of Liberty... Coincidentally, Li Mu wanted to as well.

But another boss, Mr. Zhao, recommended visiting the Twin Towers, saying that the Empire State Building is the center of New York, the most dazzling jewel in the crown...

Li Mu listened with great interest.

And as they chatted, they gradually became more familiar with each other.

Around 3 o'clock, the group walked into the embassy together.

As the first person to arrive at the embassy, ​​Li Mu naturally ended up at the front of the line.

Soon, he entered an office and met his interviewing officer.

"Hello, Mr. Li..."

The blond, blue-eyed interviewer, dressed in a suit, gave Li Mu a gentle smile.

Clearly different from other people who go on group tours, the other party knew in advance that these people were wealthy and what their purpose was in going to the United States, so their attitude was naturally not overly harsh.

America, you know.

Money is paradise.

Although Li Mu's English is only at the written level, in the end, it's not a big problem for him to stammer out a few sentences and phrases.

The responses were fairly normal.

So, the signing session ended in less than fifteen minutes.

With a "click," the official stamp was affixed to his passport. Then, as the other person handed the passport back, they smiled at Li Mu in fluent Chinese and said:

"On behalf of the United States, I welcome Mr. Li. I hope you have a wonderful trip and see you again."
