The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 812 - 321: The Phoenix Man Has Reborn (Part 5)_3

Perhaps it was a recognition of talent, or perhaps a desire to form a good bond, the journalist was particularly friendly to He Jingtian, she even wanted to donate some money to his mother and him.

"Expenses in the provincial city are high, and you are still a student yourself, carrying the burden of caring for a mother who can’t live independently, you definitely need money—"

The journalist wanted to help but was afraid of hurting He Jingtian’s self-esteem, so she tried to be subtle, "I will do my best to get this article published. By then, perhaps kind-hearted people in society will offer help."

He Jingtian did not refuse the interview and wanted to gain recognition and praise from the official media.

But, he didn’t want to be someone who relies on charity.

"Sister Seo, thank you, but there’s no need for donations or anything."

He Jingtian’s eyes were bright, and his expression resolute, "There are many more people in society who need help more than I do. I am indeed facing difficulties right now, but I can overcome them!"

"I can work while I study. Besides tutoring, I am proficient in English, French, German, Spanish, and Japanese and can work as a translator for publishers or an interpreter for foreign-related organizations!"

He Jingtian didn’t know when he learned so many foreign languages, perhaps it was a benefit of rebirth.

No matter the reason, the result is that he is proficient in five foreign languages and can do live interpretation!

This is the early 1990s, a period of rapid economic development, and both the state and various businesses urgently need talent of all kinds.

Especially translators, as the government seeks foreign investment and the private sector actively engages in foreign trades. Although He Jingtian wasn’t a student majoring in Foreign Language, he had studied English and had even helped out at some units before.

That was just a common English, while languages like French, German, and Spanish were considered less common translations in this era and would be even more scarce.

He Jingtian has skills in his hands, there is no worry about not being able to earn money!

"Proficient in English, French, and five foreign languages?"

The journalist widened her eyes, looking at He Jingtian in disbelief.

She knew He Jingtian was excellent, but she didn’t expect this young man, who seemed like a fair-skinned scholar, to be so outstanding to this extent.

Faced with the journalist’s astonished gaze, He Jingtian nodded slowly, indicating that he indeed knew these languages.

"That’s great, I have a few classmates in the provincial city, one of whom works at a publisher, I have the contact details here, you can try to reach out!"

The journalist was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to write down a few contact details and handed them over to He Jingtian.

"Sister Seo, thank you so much!" He Jingtian expressed his gratitude repeatedly.

Although through teachers or professors at school, he could also reach out to publishers or foreign trade companies that needed translators, having more options was undoubtedly better.

"You’re welcome, it’s truly because you are excellent enough yourself! I’m just helping with the introduction, the key lies ultimately in your own ability!"

The journalist didn’t take credit, speaking rather objectively.

She looked more appreciatively at He Jingtian—

Out of a poor family comes a noble son, outstanding individuals can still emit their light even when born in difficult circumstances!

Being so excellent, possessing so many skills, He Jingtian ought to be able to support himself and a mother who requires care!

The police helped buy train tickets back to the provincial city for He Jingtian and his mother and saw them off at the platform with the journalist’s wife.

"Goodbye! Thank you!"

Through the train window, He Jingtian waved goodbye to the kindhearted and warm couple.

"Goodbye!" The police officer and journalist also waved their arms, seeing off the green train as it slowly pulled out of the station, clunking towards the distance.

"Xiao Tian, where are we going? I, I don’t want to go out to play anymore, I want to go home!"

Mrs. He, now fed, having drunk her fill and cleaned up, looked like a normal person again.

But her expression was timid, eyes evasive, avoiding eye contact with strangers, all the while clinging tightly to her son’s clothes, trembling like a frightened quail.

He Jingtian instinctively felt annoyed, but he suppressed the impulse.

He took a deep breath, striving to use a gentle tone as he spoke to his real mother, "Mom, the house in our hometown has collapsed. If it weren’t for the sake of repair, Dad wouldn’t have fallen from the roof!"

"Dad’s gone, and I’ve transferred the land in our hometown, we have no home now!"

"But I’ll always take care of you, as long as I’m here, we’ll always have a home. Wherever I am, that’s where our home is!"

Saying these words, He Jingtian himself was moved.

If he can help it, he doesn’t want to be an unfilial son who abandons his real mother, a heartless wolf.

There was no choice in the past.

Now discovering so many moneymaking skills, He Jingtian feels more confident.

He held his real mother’s hand, looked into her eyes, and said firmly, "Mom, rest assured, I’ll never leave you again!"
