61. Treats

Tao Li slowly parked the car into the parking space, glanced at the location sent on his mobile phone, and got out of the car and entered the elevator. Meow Meow followed behind Tao Li, looking very excited, but not saying a word.

"Hello, I have a reservation. Tao Li stood at the front desk of the restaurant and said hello to the waiter.

This restaurant is a private French restaurant that has been very popular recently, the price is high but it is extremely difficult to book, although he can find connections, but he is not actually interested in this restaurant. For him, the most authentic French food is not in China.

"Okay, what's your name?"

"The surname is Ai, and it should have reached a person. ”

"Yes, yes, you come with me. The waiter glanced at the ipad in his hand, nodded, and entered the private room with Tao Li and Meow Meow.

As soon as he pushed the door open, Ai Xin was already sitting inside, boredly flipping through the menu.

"Morning!" Tao Li smiled, and Meow Meow also said hello behind him.

"Sit. Ai Xin beckoned and handed the other two menus on the table to the two of them.

Meow Meow looked a little restrained, glanced at the menu in front of her, and then turned her head to look at Tao Li.

"Just order your favorite food. Tao Li smiled softly, "If you don't know what to eat, ask the waiter to recommend it." ”

"Hmm. Meow Meow nodded, opened the menu, and sure enough, there were many high-end dishes that he had never tasted. She hesitated for a moment and ordered a well-matched package.

Ai Xin and Tao Li also quickly ordered the meal and handed the menu to the waiter. The waiter nodded, bent down and exited the private room.

"Why did you suddenly invite you to dinner?" Tao Li took a sip of the lemonade on the table and looked at Ai Xin in surprise, "It's still such a difficult restaurant to book, and you've made a fortune?"

"It's not for you. Ai Xin rolled her eyes and looked at Meow Meow with a smile: "It's been a long time." ”

"Ah, yes......" Meow Meow was obviously a little surprised, nodded in embarrassment, and couldn't hold back a word for a long time.

"Meow Meow is still so shy?" Ai Xin smiled, took a sip of lemonade from the glass, and frowned.

"You think they're all like you?" Tao Li set up the knife and fork in front of Meow Meow, and then turned his head and glanced at Ai Xin, but there was only pampering in his expression.

Ai Xin was not annoyed, and looked at Meow Meow with interest, she seemed to have not seen her for a long time.

"Meow, how long have you been following Tao Li?"

"Me?" Meow Meow thought for a moment and glanced at Tao Li: "It's been more than three years." ”

"That's not a short time. Ai Xin smiled.

"Uh-huh, yes...... It seems to have come over in a blink of an eye. Meowth smiled and relaxed a little.

"So, you haven't done any other job since you graduated?" Ai Xin looked at her.

"Well, it seems to be. Meow Meow nodded, turned her head sideways, looked at Tao Li who was playing with her mobile phone, and couldn't help but recall.

She has been Tao Li's personal assistant for three years. She grew up in an ordinary family, but her parents had great expectations for her. In addition to spending more time studying than ordinary people, she also studied painting for many years at the same time, and finally was admitted to B University with a very high cultural score and a special student, and became an alumnus of Tao Li and Ai Xin. And at that time, she didn't even have the name Meow Meow.

In the beginning, she was full of beautiful dreams for the university. Whether it is studying in the library with a book, or the love that the teacher's family has always strongly forbidden has become a fair and honest thing, or leaving the small place where she has lived for 18 years and going to a big city, she is extremely looking forward to it.

Although the tuition fee at University B is not low, the parents always have some savings and do not need student loans or grants. Before leaving, her mother sewed the inside of her close-fitting clothes for the night, and put her living expenses in, for fear that she would lose money on the long train. Meowth never felt that her parents were so shabby that she was embarrassed, on the contrary, she knew that she was being loved with all her might, and she would feel happy just thinking about it.

But this expectation and happiness slowly diluted less than a month after enrolling. As soon as she arrived at the dormitory, she saw that her roommates' desks were filled with all kinds of brand-name skin care products and cosmetics, and the face oil she bought from the supermarket was particularly eye-catching. She was a little glad that she needed to wear uniform clothes for military training, otherwise she would have quickly exposed the fact that there were only a few clothes.

The first time she felt the gap was on the night of the end of military training. Everyone cried goodbye to the instructor and threw their camouflage caps high into the sky, which turned into cheers again. Although everyone has only known each other for a week, they all seem to feel that this night is very meaningful because they all have a freshman mentality and get along so closely. So the head of Meowmeow's class took the initiative to mobilize the whole class to go out for dinner together. As soon as the words fell, the following was an enthusiastic response.

Even people who don't fit in will not choose to be absent from the first dinner party in college. Meow Meow thought that she hadn't spent much money this week, and it shouldn't be too much of a problem to go to dinner once, and she was also happy.

The roommate pulled Meow Meow and trotted all the way back to the dormitory. She wondered, didn't she go to dinner, why did she go back to the dormitory?

"Mao Youling, don't you change your clothes?" Mao Youling is the name of Meow Meow. The roommate looked at her and was still wearing the camouflage uniform of military training, and was a little strange: "Hurry up and change your clothes, how can you wear this for the first dinner!"

"Ah, is it?" Meow Meow was stunned, opened the closet, thought for a few seconds, and took out one of her most expensive shirts. It was after she got her acceptance letter, and her mother took her to the biggest store in town to buy it. She smacked her tongue at the price card in the fitting room, but after putting it on, her mother did not hesitate at all and paid for the dress.

When she arrives at the restaurant with her roommates, Meow Meow begins to thank her roommate a little. None of the students in the class were wearing camouflage uniforms, they all changed into their own clothes, the boys were all carefully dressed, and several boys who usually had long bangs combed their hair up. She knows the logos of some sports brands, but she doesn't know a single brand of clothes that cost more than 500 yuan.

Everyone introduced each other's names and hometowns, and fellow villagers quickly sat down together. Although Meow Meow was a little shy, there were still classmates on the side to solve the siege, and two boys whispered praise for her cuteness. The dinner was very happy, and the boys were shouting for drinks. Although Meow Meow didn't drink, no one forced her, but praised her for "girls who don't drink are better". At that moment, Meow Meow also felt like she was part of the class.

It wasn't until the next day that the class leader issued last night's checkout receipt in the class group, and when everyone began to calculate how much everyone needed to pay, Meow Meow was stunned for a moment. It's just that in a restaurant she has never heard of the name, she eats some ordinary meals, and the boys drink the cheapest beer, so it costs two hundred per person?

When Meow Meow was stunned, several people had already sent out red envelopes in the group.

A few boys also replied: "I'll come to the dormitory and give you cash later!"

The squad leader also quickly replied: "Okay, it's okay. ”

Meow Meow didn't dare to think about it anymore, and quickly sent a message to the squad leader in private chat: "Squad leader, can I give you cash when class is going to class tomorrow?"

"Okay, no problem. The squad leader came back.

Meow Meow looked at the other people in the dormitory, no one spoke, and no one questioned, everyone seemed to take this kind of consumption for granted. Only she, calculating in her heart, this is her living expenses for almost a week. And after this money is given, what kind of meals will she have to eat in the cafeteria to get through this month.

At that moment, an idea suddenly occurred to her. In the past, she only thought that she wanted to finish four years of college and find a stable job. And now, she wants to make money, she wants to make a lot of money, and she doesn't have to be so embarrassed by hundreds of dollars.

After that dinner, Meow Meow didn't participate much in group activities that cost money. Although the roommate noticed it, he never broke it, and only treated her like a child from other ordinary families in the school. Meow Meow doesn't care what other people think, and unlike many freshmen, she never misses classes and works hard to work part-time in her free time. I can make some money, but it's just a small amount. Whenever she sees her roommate's newly bought cosmetics or thousands of new dresses, she can only silently cheer herself up in her heart, and then work harder to work part-time.

It all changed because of a poster she saw in her sophomore year. At that time, she had just received her first-year scholarship, and although the tuition fee at University B was high, the scholarship was relatively high. The computer she used in college was a second-hand notebook sent by her cousin's family when she was admitted to college, and the shell was polished. In addition to a new computer, she thought, the scholarship would also buy a new sweater.

In this way, with an envelope full of scholarships, Meow Meow, who was walking back to the dormitory, saw a huge poster posted outside the bulletin board.

The poster was very conspicuous, but the reason Meow Meow noticed it first time was because of the extremely ugly typography and color scheme, which was simply torture for her as an art student. However, when she got closer, she realized that the content was more appealing to her.

There are only a few simple words on the poster:

Recruit a personal assistant, which is legal and legal, and the working hours do not exceed 40 hours per week, and an internship certificate can be issued.

Requirements: Less talkative, careful, not stupid.

Treatment: monthly salary from 20,000 yuan.

Contact: Ai Xin 138xxxxxxxx

Meow Meow read the poster carefully several times, and there was not even the name of a company on it, I don't know if it was a prank or a pyramid scheme company, in short, it looked very unconvincing. But looking at the line of monthly salary, Meow Meow hesitated for a while, but still saved the phone number.

Even if it's a scam, take a look. After all, 20,000 yuan is already a huge amount of money for her.

When Meow Meow arrived at the place of the interview, she found that not only for her, but also for many people in this school, a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan is a huge amount of money. What she didn't know was that there were many people in the school who were swollen and fat, and their parents were poor but still had to compare, just to save face on weekdays.

She carefully checked the message on her phone that she was outside the interview classroom, but she didn't know how to get past the crowd and into the classroom. She thought about it, but still sent a message on her mobile phone, telling the "Ai Xin" that she had arrived outside the classroom.

In less than a minute, the message was replied to.

"Come in. ”

There were only two short and indifferent words on the phone, and Meow Meow felt a little aggrieved for a moment, but after thinking about the 20,000 yuan, he still gritted his teeth and walked through the crowd into the classroom.

Pushing open the door, facing the last row of the podium sat a boy with red lips and white teeth, with broad shoulders and a little tired leaning back in his chair, sighing.

It's not that the boy is good-looking, but Meow Meow feels at first glance that he is a rich man. The only reason why this intuition came from is that the boy seems to be in a very different world from Meowmeow.

He looks confident and arrogant, but he is shy and inferior. His hairstyle is meticulous, but he is always frizzy because he has to rush to class and work. He wears studd earrings and pompous decorative necklaces, but they complement his clothes perfectly. Meow Meow has always known that people without artistic attainments can also have good taste, but the basis must be money.

"Are you...... Mao Youling, right?" a nice female voice sounded, and Meow Meow withdrew her too direct gaze and looked at a girl not far in front of her.

Ai Xin sat next to Tao Li, and when she came in, she didn't see her.

"Ah, yes, yes, I'm Mao Youling......" Meow Meow was a little nervous, and looked at the classroom, except for Tao Li and Ai Xin sitting in the last row, there were several students of the same level sitting scattered, and the rest may be other grades or departments, and I haven't seen them.

"You go to the podium, introduce yourself, and then I'll ask you questions. Ai Xin frowned, she thought it was quite appropriate when she received Meow Meow's information, but she didn't expect to be so nervous.

"Ah, okay......" Meow Meow walked up to the podium, her palms were already covered with sweat, she had never experienced an interview in front of so many people, and she had almost forgotten what she was ready for.

"My name is Mao Youling, I am a sophomore in the Department of Fine Arts, and I am studying character and scene design ......"

"What's the hair?" Tao Li, who was sitting in the last row, suddenly opened his mouth and looked at her with a frown.

"Mao ...... Mao Youling. I didn't expect to be interrupted by Tao Li halfway, Meow Meow swallowed violently, and still stammered.

"Cat ghosts?" Tao Li looked at Ai Xin in disbelief.

"People call it Mao Youling! Rare hair, want to stop talking, Zhong Lingyuxiu's spirit!" Ai Xin rolled his eyes.

"Yes, I don't understand it even more after you explain it like this!" Tao Li waved his big hand, looked at the timid Mao Youling on the podium, and opened his mouth again: "Can you change your name?"

"Change your name, change your name?" she was stunned on the stage, not understanding the meaning of Tao Li's words.

There was a sudden whispering discussion among the students sitting below. Tao Li only said three times to the interviewee in the entire interview today, and this third time was to ask Mao Youling if he could change his name, which was not just strange, but abnormal.

Seeing that Mao Youling did not answer, Tao Li showed a trace of impatience on his face, and was about to speak, but the girl on the stage nodded vigorously.

"No problem!

Ai Xin touched her eyebrows, looked at the firmness and enthusiasm in the girl's eyes, and turned her head to look at Tao Li.

"I think you're studying art, but the content of your job is mainly assistant work in life, which is more trivial and important, and your major may not be very useful. Tao Li glanced at the information in his hand and pursed his lips, he thought that what Ai Xin recommended would be a child from the management department.

"I ......" Mao Youling recalled the content on the poster and looked at Tao Li seriously: "I don't talk much, I'm careful, and I'm not stupid." ”

"Flutter. Ai Xin couldn't hold back and laughed, some people really take the word "not stupid" seriously......

"Oh, then why are you doing this?" Tao Li asked again.

"Because ......" Mao Youling hesitated, she looked at Tao Li, his eyes were obviously focused on herself, but she couldn't see any emotion, as if she was just looking at a wall. But with such a look, she felt that there was no possibility of lying.

"Because the wages are high. She finally spoke.

"Well, that makes sense. Ai Xin nodded, turned his face sideways and looked at Tao Li: "This kid is true and sincere." ”

Tao Li sighed for some reason, thought for a while, and looked up at Mao Youling: "One last question." ”

Mao Youling was stunned for a moment, she didn't know whether she was asked more or less, she only knew that her performance should be terrible, and she thought that she must come back on the last question.

"What do you think...... How is the poster designed?" Tao Li hooked the corners of his mouth and showed a gentle smile: "Don't worry, the poster is not made by us, you won't offend anyone, I just want to know the truest thoughts." ”

Mao Youling recalled the poster, and finally had the opportunity to complain about his thoughts: "...... The typography is more crowded.,Although the picture is very large, but there are too few words.,It's all in the upper half.,Only the contact information is at the bottom.,It will make the people who watch it feel very uncomfortable.。 In terms of color, the poster has a dark blue background, but uses a grass green font and some red words, which is really ......"

"How's it going?" Ai Xin looked at her with a smile.

"It's ugly, it's ugly. Mao Youling took a deep breath and said this sentence anyway.

"Hah, ha, ha!" Tao Li suddenly slapped the table and laughed, hearty laughter echoing throughout the classroom.

After laughing for two or three minutes, Mao Youling's heart began to grow, and the students around him couldn't help but look at Tao Li.

"I made that poster. Ai Xin smiled and pointed at Mao Youling.

It's over...... This was Mao Youling's only thought at that time.
