Sometimes, Tan You wondered how she had managed to hold on for so long. Despite having parents as suffocating and oppressive as Tan Lin and Cheng Wenhui, maybe it was because she had been raised by her grandpa. No matter how stifling her life got, she could always find a way to cheer herself up.
When Tan You went to the post office in town to mail her letters, Tan Deming insisted on coming along. Tan You couldn't dissuade him, so she figured she might as well let the old man tag along and be happy for a while.
Tan You mailed out five manuscripts in total. Whether any would be accepted remained to be seen. She didn't send them all to one magazine; instead, she chose three, submitting them strategically after analyzing the specific style of each publication.
After mailing her submissions, Tan You didn't dwell on them. She was now contemplating her next mission. The primary-level system did have its limitations; she had to complete a mission at least once every two weeks.
