Chapter 866: 865. Assessnt
Old Madam Yu declared that she had long seen through her husband’s tsundere traits.
“Hmph, I originally wanted to take the opportunity of the essay submission to have a serious talk with her. Although the drama is important, academics are more so.”
While the drama can’t go on without her, the world of traditional Chinese dicine can’t afford to lose her either!
“Oh, co on, Xiao Shu’s thesis is undoubtedly going to be excellent without even looking at it. And you still want to talk about it? What are you going to discuss, how she managed to beat all your other students at her age?”
Don’t think she doesn’t know that those short submitted essays won’t exceed five pages.
Professor Yu: “…”

By the end of March, after the wrap-up of “Easy Rule Jianghu 2,” the shooting for “The Tree at the Doorway” was more than halfway done.
Tang Shu, who had kept herself as busy as a spinning top, finally took a breather, thinking that she wouldn’t have to keep spinning non-stop, but the next day Wen Nuan called her out again with a phone call.
“So, I still need to participate in an internal assessnt?”
In the partitioned workshop of Plants & Herbs Hall, Tang Shu and Wen Nuan sat side by side, each holding an iron dart.
“Mm-hmm, a 90% elimination rate, but I think that shouldn’t be difficult for you.”
Wen Nuan accurately hit the bullseye of a target five ters away and expressed her opinion.
While Tang Shu, holding a ssage with barely a dozen words…
“Only 50 people can choose one cold weapon and then survive for a week in a large mountain, and you call this not difficult?”
Your assessnts are so avant-garde, sis—
Tang Shu didn’t believe that the students being assessed were just simply surviving in the mountains; she bet that there would be a complicated mix of challenges and odd tasks awaiting them.
“Does every assessnt participant get one of these… ssages?”
Calling it a “ssage” is already giving it too much credit; a text ssage could contain more words than this.
“Of course.”
Wen Nuan revealed a mischievous smile, “Gathering information, as well as handling all kinds of ergencies, is also a requirent of the assessnt, right?”
For once, Tang Shu agreed and nodded, “True, unexpected events always co unexpectedly.”
Although she had only taken over the Tang Sect for a re three years, the ergencies she faced were enough for her to acknowledge this fact.
“When is the assessnt?”
She would need to clear out her schedule for a whole week, a tall order for her current commitnts.
“Don’t worry, we’ll take your position into consideration. It starts at the beginning of May. You’ll have enough ti to arrange your personal affairs.”
Tang Shu shrewdly sensed the secrecy involved, “Wait a minute, your people… co from all walks of life?”
“Why do you say that?”
“50 people for the assessnt, it’s impossible to accommodate only my profession. Notifying the assessed participants more than a month in advance must an that most people’s professions are being considered. So, they must have their own jobs to do, just like Yuh Ji Bun Shop and your Plants & Herbs Hall.”
Wen Nuan responded, “Only by truly integrating into the crowd can one experience all walks of life, et different people, and complete all sorts of strange tasks.”
This was an affirmation of her speculation about her companions.
Of course, that didn’t help Tang Shu understand why they would recruit an entertainnt industry artist with forty million fans.
Perhaps for them, this was a novel experience in employnt? Probably.
Tang Shu destroyed the piece of paper that noted the assessnt location and ti; her mind was already busy planning her scant spare ti.
Great, she was about to face a busy life once again.
