Chapter 1: First Encounter

Next Chapter

At the end of October, the weather gradually turned colder, with a layer of autumn rain and a layer of coolness, and today it has just cleared slightly, and the sky is still cloudy.

As we enter the third decade of the new era, the number of college students has swelled dramatically in this era, and the news, newspapers, radio, the Internet, and all kinds of media imaginable are all reporting on one thing, and nearly 9 million college graduates this year are about to usher in fierce and cruel competition for jobs.

Eye-catching red words, Xiang Yang sat on the crowded waiting chair and looked at the newspaper spread out in his hand, and felt that the five blood-red words in the most difficult employment season of Nanuoda deeply made her stomach a little upside down, three months after graduation, three months of interview, and no company gave her an offer.

In order to save income, Xiang Yang, a new social person who didn't make money and didn't have money, just ate a bowl of five-yuan noodles in the alley downstairs, and at that time she was picking up a few broken noodles while secretly thinking, now a bowl of rice noodles is so expensive.

Maybe things are not clean, Xiang Yang held his stomach and thought secretly, but he told himself in his mind to bring some self-cooked food next time no matter what, so that he could save another two yuan, two taels of rice, and a piece of green vegetables for five cents, which should be able to fill his stomach.

But her stomach was so gurgling that it didn't work, she thought, just as she was about to get up to go to the bathroom, the door on the opposite side opened.

A crisp and quiet female voice came, "Is Miss Xiang Xiang here?" ”

"Ahh

It doesn't hurt! It doesn't hurt! Xiang Yang gave herself a psychological suggestion, no matter what, she had to insist on it, maybe the psychological suggestion really worked, or maybe the nervousness overshadowed the discomfort, she was invited by the secretary to let into the interview room, and soon observed the unfamiliar environment, but she didn't feel pain.

Siya's office is very spacious but very strange, modern office environment, except for a medium-sized golden toad on the boss's desk, the toad's mouth is wide open, and it is stuffed with coins, which seems slightly out of tune with the surrounding environment.

Xiang Yang looked at the slightly obese middle-aged man in front of him with his chubby index finger pointing at his resume, and suddenly felt uneasy, she moved her seat slightly unnaturally, and leaned forward gently, "Mr. Li, what do you think?"

The fat man didn't seem to hear it, he was taking care of himself and lighting up the resume paper, and there were signs that it was getting faster and faster, which was not a good thing in Xiang Yang's opinion.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Li!"

Xiang Yang raised his voice.

"Ah?!" Mr. Li seemed to have suddenly woken up, frowned and looked at Xiang Yang with no good feelings, "What did you say?"

"Oh, Mr. Li," Xiang Yang flicked the broken hair next to his cheek behind his ear, and then raised his head and smiled, "Mr. Li, I mean, how do you read my resume?"

"Oh, this," Mr. Li smiled.

Mr. Li smiled, and Xiang Yang followed with a flattering smile.

But then, Mr. Li pinched Xiangyang's resume with his index finger and thumb, "Look at it, college graduates, it doesn't seem to be..."

Xiang Yangben's heart suddenly mentioned his throat, and his heart jumped, just two words, nervous!

She is a fresh graduate who graduated this year, and she has been looking for a job for three months, and she missed the school recruitment that the gods tore apart, and she said that she finally didn't have to compete with all kinds of bigwigs.

Alas, in this strange city, she doesn't have much money anymore, so she urgently needs to find a job now, no matter what it is, first of all, to ensure that she survives.

Tick.

The faint sound of water droplets dripping on the glass.

Xiang Yang looked out of the window behind Mr. Li, and there were more and more water droplets, and in a few seconds, they became denser and denser.

Xiang Yang smiled bitterly in his heart, and secretly pressed the bag that he had used for two years in his hand, but there was no umbrella in it.

"Tsk," Mr. Li suddenly smashed his mouth, reached out to pinch his fat waist, and stared at Xiang Yang's resume, "Xiao Cao." ”

"Eh, eh. Xiang Yang immediately put on a courteous posture and looked at Mr. Li pitifully.

Mr. Li had no intention of looking at this, a little unbearable, "Xiao Cao, don't look at me like that." ”

"Yes, yes. Xiang Yang was busy responding, her eyes were still full of expectation, although she responded with her mouth, but her eyes were full of anticipation to look at Mr. Li.

Mr. Li sighed, closed Xiangyang's resume, and put his hands back on the desk, "Xiao Cao, let's do it, let's not talk about this work, let's talk about why you are called Xiangyang, how about it?"

Xiang Yang originally thought that Mr. Li was going to reject her, but now that she was listening to this kind of homely topic, she relaxed and sat upright, "Oh, Mr. Li, what are you asking for?" She looked at Mr. Li, his face sank, and he quickly waved his hand, "Hey, this is also simple, I was born at noon, so the family gave me the name Xiangyang." ”

Mr. Li slapped the table and startled Xiangyang, "If you say that, I can use you." ”

"Huh?" Xiang Yang looked confused.

"Little girl, although you are mediocre in all aspects, we pay attention to luck in doing business, your name and birthday are good, and the sun is shining. Mr. Li stretched out two chubby hands and compared a round sun on the upper right.

"Huh?" Xiang Yang's voice dragged on, a little disappointed, he didn't expect to find a job in the end because of his name.

"Little girl, don't get me wrong, I see that you look quite energetic, you seem to have a lot of energy, give you this opportunity, young people should know how to cherish it." Mr. Li's last sentence was very instructive.

"Thank you, Mr. Li!" Xiang Yang's voice was sweet.

"That's okay," Mr. Li put the resume in his hand into his desk, "If there is no problem, let's go to the personnel side next Monday to report, and familiarize yourself with the working environment first." ”

Xiang Yang thanked him for leaving Mr. Li's office, and then called Zheng Hang with trembling hands, she flicked her long ponytail, and looked happy all over her body.

"Hey?" Zheng Hang over there obviously didn't wake up, "Ha..."

"Zheng Hang, what are you doing?" Xiang Yang frowned, but he still couldn't hide the joy in his voice.

"Sleep, what else can you do. Zheng Hang replied lazily.

"I found it!"

"What?" Zheng Hang didn't react.

"Work!"

Zheng Hang was silent, and didn't seem to react too much.

"I'm going to work next Monday!" Xiang Yang ran down the stairs.

"Ha??" Zheng Hang reacted at this time, "This is great! Little Sun, you can." ”

"Hmph, of course!" Xiang Yang was a little proud, the ponytail was flicked, but as soon as she went out, she was drenched in the rain on her head, and she quickly took two steps back.

"What's wrong?" Zheng Hang asked with concern on the other side of the phone.

Xiang Yang smiled, "Haha, it's okay," she reached out to wipe the rain off her forehead, "I'm so happy I forgot it's still raining here." ”

"Xiaoyang, where are you? I'll pick you up. Zheng Hang sobered up a lot, and saw that it was really raining outside.

Xiang Yang ran to the bus stop with his bag, and then picked up the phone again, "Hey, Zheng Hang, no need, I'm waiting for the bus here, it's okay, I can go back by myself." ”

"Don't," Zheng Hang sounded like he was in a hurry to get dressed, "I just picked up the car, I'll pick you up, don't delay." ”

"Oh, no..."

Xiang Yang didn't finish speaking, Zheng Hang hung up the phone, Xiang Yang held the bag in his hand, and looked to see if there was a bus coming.

But the weather is not beautiful, the rain does not stop, but it is getting bigger and bigger, the urban drainage system is still 20 years ago, and soon there is water on the road.

The bus stop has a rain shelter eaves, and Xiang Yang stood in, and couldn't help rubbing his arms, feeling a little cold.

It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were no pedestrians on the road.

There was a faint roar of cars in the rain curtain, and Xiang Yang just made a stop to see if the bus was coming, but before he could open his eyes to see clearly, he was splashed with water by the yellow car shadow that was speeding by.

"Rub!"

Xiang Yang looked down at the hem of her skirt, her hair stuck to her cheeks, and she wiped the black dots on her skirt vigorously: "What kind of person is really..."

Just when Xiang Yang was huddled under the eaves of the platform and shivered a little, the car quickly drove back.

A tall man with a black umbrella got out of the car, he walked in front of Xiang Yang in a few steps, and the look in his eyes was blurred by the rain and mist: "Where are you going?"

Xiang Yang raised his eyes, and a few drops of rain splashed into his eyes, and he couldn't help but squint and blink: "What?"

The man's good-looking eyes drooped slightly: "I'll call a car for you, if you have any other requirements, you can mention, you can't touch the porcelain when you squat." ”

Xiang Yang listened to his words, and was choked by the other party's anger, and her stomach, which was already not painful, began to ache faintly again, she secretly felt bad in her heart, and still looked behind the man with a hard probe, vaguely the yellow car shadow that had just galloped past, and it was a yellow sports car, with a cross black stripe on the body, and I don't know what kind of patent leather was on the body, which looked like it exuded a noble frosted feeling.

Xiang Yang stood back, and looked at the man up and down in return, the well-matched clothes and neat hairstyle did not look like a master with poor economic conditions.

"Sir, just shut up. She spoke in a slightly unceremonious tone, her hand gently covering the position of her stomach.

There was silence between the two.

Chen Yuan glanced at Xiang Yang lightly: "Stomach upset?"

"It's not about you. Xiang Yang blurted out, only to look at the other party's cold smile and not smile, only to feel that he said that he was really right to speak out of shape, she stood back a little stagnantly, and paused in her expression.

Chen Yuan looked at her coldly for a while, took out a Montblanc from his pocket, casually uncovered the small advertisement sticking to the bus stop sign, wrote down something he didn't know what he didn't know, and then took a long note from the wallet, and rolled it into a strip of advertising paper into Xiangyang's hand.

"Odeprazolud and Adoxidillin, enough for you, the rest of the money is called a car"

Then he glanced at the resume in her portfolio, condescendingly: "If you fail the interview in the future, don't squat on the side of the road and make trouble for others." ”
