A perfect life begins with changing the timeline.

Normally, Li Mu would definitely be able to notice the stark difference between the mornings at Mingya Garden and Xian Village.

The mornings in Xian Village are busy and crowded.

Crowded at breakfast stalls and bus stops. People everywhere jostled to squeeze onto buses and head to work.

Yet, the elegant garden exudes a sense of tranquility both inside and out.

People were already swimming in the pool, and coaches were instructing students on hitting techniques in the tennis courts in the early morning.

No crowds, completely different.

But he had no time to appreciate it; he was merely distracted and preoccupied.

What about dreams?

Where is Li Mu?

Why did you stop dreaming?

He was puzzled.

Could it be because of drinking? No... when I first dreamed of the first conman, Li Mu, wasn't I also drinking?

Why is that?

Could it be... because of that rented house in Xian Village?

Is that rental house some kind of auspicious place?

His brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

I left the residential area with a frown, got on the bus, and finally arrived at my workplace.

Even after clocking out, sitting at my workstation, I was still filled with confusion.

Until Sui Kuan arrived.

"Li Mu!"

Upon seeing Li Mu sitting at his workstation, Sui Kuan immediately took off his satchel with an excited expression and pulled out a manuscript paper:

"Here you go, I've got it done! I was working on it until after 1 a.m. last night, it was too late to call you, so please take a look."

Li Mu slowly regained his senses after a moment of daze.

My attention was diverted.

He nodded, took the manuscript, and began to read it.

On the evening of July 30th, the lottery draw took place, and a lucky Guangzhou lottery player won a 50 million yuan jackpot with a ticket costing only 20 yuan. Our reporter brings you an exclusive interview with the lucky winner!

Reporter: First of all, congratulations on winning the prize. Could you please introduce yourself?

Mr. Lin (pseudonym): Just call me Mr. Lin, I'm 21 years old, and I currently work in Guangzhou...

To be fair, the journalism department at Sun Yat-sen University is among the top in the country. And as graduates of Sun Yat-sen University, their professional knowledge is naturally excellent.

Whether it's Li Mu's interviews or the writing skills of Fatty Sui, it all comes down to this.

Simple, clear, and concise, without excessive embellishment, the entire report appears very "dry," but this also demonstrates the solid foundation of knowledge possessed by the two individuals.

Li Mu's interview approach was actually quite simple: to let everyone know about this "Mr. Lin's" personal information, how he bought the lottery ticket, and what he planned to do after winning the prize.

Finally, a summary and conclusion.

Sui Kuan's interview article follows the same line of thought as his.

How did you buy the lottery ticket?

I bought it on a whim.

Have you ever thought about winning the lottery?

No, I don't dare to think about it.

But you still won the lottery.

Yes, so I'm lucky.

Without needing excessive embellishment or elaboration, their shared principle is to publish the interviews fairly, impartially, and openly.

Li Mu read through the lines one by one, and soon turned to the second page.

Interviewer: [Now that you've received this money, what are your plans for the next step?]

Mr. Lin: "I haven't thought it through yet, it was quite sudden. But... maybe I should go traveling. The world is so big, I want to see it."

Note: [That sounds very romantic.]

Mr. Lin (laughs): "It's just an idea, I haven't thought of anything specific yet. I used to feel that life was monotonous and repetitive, and I was even confused about the future, but now I finally have a goal."

Interviewer: [Although you haven't decided yet, I can tell you really long for it.]

Mr. Lin: "Yes."

"The interview has come to an end. It must be admitted that Mr. Lin is indeed a one-in-a-million lucky person, but even he, who is blessed with good fortune, is not yet ready to cope with the changes in his life."

But regardless, we still wish him well. From now on, his life will not only consist of the present hardships, but also of poetry and distant fields. (Reporters: Li Mu/Sui Kuan)

The interview, which lasted one and a half pages, has come to an end.

After Li Mu finished reading, Sui Kuan noticed the change in his expression and immediately pointed to the end of the article in a low voice, saying:

"I think your final summary was fantastic. Especially the sentence, 'Life is not just about the present hardships, but also about poetry and distant fields.' It's so insightful and brilliant; it elevates the entire interview."

Normally, Li Mu would have been quite pleased with this compliment, whether it was genuine or not.

But at this moment... his mind was not on that at all.

So he simply nodded slightly and said:

Have you thought of a title for your article?

"No, you've made any progress?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Li Mu wrote a line below:

[The world is so big, I want to see it -- Exclusive interview with 50 million lottery winners]

"How about this one?"

"……pretty!"

Looking at Li Mu's calligraphy, which was far more beautiful than his own, Sui Kuan nodded vigorously again:

"Exquisite and concise, yet with a touch of romanticism."

"This one will do, I'll go get the photos."

He handed the manuscript to Sui Kuan and headed towards the darkroom.

Soon, several photos were also brought over.

Sui Kuan took it, and the first one was a close-up of a lottery ticket starting with 03 and 05. When he saw the ticket, he immediately felt at ease.

He was afraid that Li Mu was spreading fake news... Although his intuition told him it was unlikely, there was still a sense of fear.

But now, seeing this close-up of the lottery ticket, he instantly understood what was going on.

The second photo shows a person sitting against a white background wall, wearing a Big Head Son mask, and holding a microphone with the logo of Southern Metropolis Daily.

These two are enough.

One document proves that the other party is the winning lottery player, and the other is evidence of an exclusive interview.

"Shall we go?"

"Walk."

They temporarily suppressed their panic and walked together toward the editorial department responsible for reviewing the news.

Upon arriving at the editor's office, the two looked around for a moment, and then Sui Kuan said:

"Isn't it too hasty for us to go directly to the editor-in-chief?"

Li Muxin is talking nonsense. An intern should go to the editor-in-chief?

What are you thinking?

He glanced around the office and said in a low voice:

"Do you know that young editor?"

Sui Kuan peeked inside and nodded:

"It seems... her surname is Fang. I delivered some manuscript paper to her yesterday."

"Let's go with her. She's young, and communication with her won't be too complicated."

"it is good."

After making up their minds, the two went straight inside.

"Hello, Sister Fang."

Fang Xiaofang subconsciously looked up, saw the two of them, and nodded:

"What's up?"

She knew these two were new interns in the Arts and Sports Department, but she couldn't recall their names.

"Sister Fang, this is our news report. It's an exclusive interview with the person who won 50 million in the lottery. We've finished writing it. Could you please review it?"

Fang Xiaofang was stunned...

At first, she didn't pay much attention when she heard the interview transcript.

Interns, after all, can't produce any high-quality drafts.

Without connections or interviewees, the best you can hope for is some minor news stories that won't even make it into the newspapers.

But after hearing Sui Kuan's words, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

His eyes were wide open.

Did these two win the lottery?
