“You know, lately I’ve been involved in some cultural and artistic investments and charity projects.
This one is mainly about supporting art education in remote areas. I remember you minored in art history in college and have always cared about this field, so I wanted to invite you to be our project’s special consultant.

Like that campus art festival back in college the way you curated that exhibition area, your unique sense of aesthetics and delicate thoughtfulness… it still leaves an impression on me.”
Victor chuckled inwardly, though his face showed only helplessness, as if to say, “Why bring that up now?” “Yes, the competition is intense. It’s been a real headache.”
