From abandoned baby to CEO

I have submitted many articles to newspapers, but all I get are rejection letters. Sun Xue's enthusiasm has been seriously frustrated, and recently she has no courage to submit any more articles.

"Uncle Zhang, I tried to submit articles, but they were all rejected by the newspaper."

Sun Xue was very disappointed, shook her head and said.

"Sun Xue, how did the editor reply to you? As far as I know, the editor's opinion is very important and can let you know where your article needs to be strengthened."

“Some manuscript editors returned the manuscript without replying, and the reply was only a few words.”

Sun Xue said a little helplessly.

"I also hope that an editor can give me good guidance on my articles, so that I can know where I need to improve. However, it may be that my articles are really poorly written."

Sun Xue told Uncle Zhang her confusion. Sun Xue felt like she was working behind closed doors. Although she kept writing, the manuscript was returned and she didn't know where the problem was.

"Sun Xue, I wouldn't have remembered it if you hadn't mentioned it. I have a college classmate who is now working at Sprout Magazine. She seems to be a senior editor. I'll contact you and ask her to review your article. See where you need to improve.”

"That's great! Thank you, Uncle Zhang!"

Sun Xue felt that Uncle Zhang's words were like a life-saving straw for him. If you really have such an editor who gives you suggestions for your articles, your writing will have a direction and you will no longer be flying around like a headless fly.

After Uncle Zhang finished speaking, he immediately got up and went to the balcony to call his classmates.

Sun Xue didn't hear clearly what Uncle Zhang was talking to, but it could be seen from Uncle Zhang's expression on the phone that they were chatting happily.

Uncle Zhang hung up the phone, walked over to Sun Xue and said, "Sun Xue, let me tell you good news. This classmate of mine is going to Quancheng City on a business trip next week. I will ask him to come home then, and you can prepare the manuscript. Let him give you some pointers, and if you have any questions, you can ask him for advice."

"Really? Uncle Zhang!"

Sun Xue thought she had heard wrongly. She did not expect to see the editor in person, which made Sun Xue both nervous and excited.

Uncle Zhang didn't answer, just smiled and nodded to Sun Xue.

Uncle Zhang told Sun Xue that Sprout Magazine is a very influential magazine in China. He had not seen this classmate for several years. When he was in school, he was a literary young man like himself. Later, due to family reasons, Uncle Zhang chose to work in an industry that had nothing to do with writing, and then started his own business. However, his classmate persisted in his original dream, and through continuous hard work, he entered a magazine and fulfilled his dream.

"So, Sun Xue, no matter what your dream is, as long as you work hard, it will come true one day."

Uncle Zhang said meaningfully.

Sun Xue felt that she had learned a lot from Uncle Zhang during this period of contact. Uncle Zhang was born in a rural area. Through his own efforts, he has achieved such a successful career. In Sun Xue's eyes, Uncle Zhang is a role model for his future efforts.

During the weekend break, Sun Xue took Wenwen to the mall. She bought a set of clothes for her grandfather and younger brother, and a military coat for her grandfather. She knew that her grandfather’s legs were bad and hurt when it got cold in winter. The military coat could make his legs warmer. Sun Xue also bought a pair of leather shoes for her younger brother. Sun Xue felt that boys must have a pair of leather shoes to be more handsome.

Wenwen knew that Sun Xue wanted to send something to his family. Sun Xue also had a younger brother, so Wenwen packed a box full of toys that he had played with when he was a child and asked Sun Xue to send it to his younger brother. He also joked that now that he has grown up, he should study hard and play less with toys.

Along with these things, there was a remittance order for 1000 yuan.

These were the promises Sun Xue made in the letter to her grandfather on the day she decided not to go home.

She wanted her grandpa to know that in his eyes Xue'er had grown up and could support herself and make her grandpa and younger brother's lives better. Although he can't go back to accompany them during the holidays, Sun Xue hopes to make this poor family live a better life this year.

On the day Uncle Zhang's friend arrived in Quancheng City, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

After lunch, Uncle Zhang drove Sun Xue and Wenwen to the airport to pick up Uncle Zhang's friends.

As the car drove through the bustling city, Sun Xue felt sad secretly as she looked at the snowflakes flying outside the window.

I remember my grandfather once told Sun Xue that he took her home on such a snowy day.

Time flies so fast, seventeen years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Since Sun Xue learned about her life experience, Sun Xue did not resent her parents who had cruelly abandoned her and had never met her. In her heart, her grandparents were her reborn parents, and they were also the people who loved her most in the world. The person she loves most.

She rarely tells others about her life experience. She does not want to win sympathy from others. She firmly believes that her background does not mean anything, and she can still have a wonderful life through her own efforts.

"Sun Xue, we've arrived at the airport."

Uncle Zhang's words brought Sun Xue back from his memories.

Sun Xue smiled sheepishly at Uncle Zhang.

As soon as we got off the car, Wenwen took Sun Xue's hand and jumped excitedly in the snow.

Due to weather reasons, Uncle Zhang's friend's flight may be delayed for more than an hour. Sun Xue took this time to play in the snow with Wenwen.

A snowy day is naturally a happy world for children. Wenwen and Sun Xue had a snowball fight, and Sun Xue held Wenwen's hands and slid in the snow.

Uncle Zhang lit a cigarette and looked happily at Sun Xue and Wenwen playing in the snow.

"Dad, you can play with us too!"

Wenwen ran over, holding a small snowball in his hand. When Uncle Zhang wasn't paying attention, he hit him in the face and ran away screaming excitedly.

He suddenly realized that he had been busy with business these years and had not played happily with Wenwen for many years. Seeing such a scene made him both happy and deeply guilty.

Uncle Zhang's friend's plane was delayed for three hours before landing slowly at the airport.

Friends who had not seen each other for many years, the two old friends exchanged warm greetings as soon as they left the airport.

"Sun Xue, let me introduce to you, the editor-in-chief of my old classmate Lu Da."

"Hello Uncle Lu!"

Sun Xue greeted with a smile.

"This is Wenwen's teacher Sun Xue. You have met my son Wenwen."

Uncle Lu smiled and nodded at Sun Xue, then touched Wenwen's head and said, "We haven't seen you for a few years, and the little guy has turned into a handsome guy with a tough head and a tough head!"

"Hello, Uncle Lu!" Wenwen was a little embarrassed by the praise.

"Still going to the same place?"

Uncle Zhang asked.

"Okay! Let's go to the old place then!" Uncle Lu said with a knowing smile.
