Chapter 1 It is not easy to live in the magic capital to find an inch

Next Chapter

This is Magnolia's eighth time at the job fair, and she is already quite familiar with the process: the recruiter's staff are polite and distant behind the booth, and the opening is to enthusiastically introduce the unit, highlight the advantages that are different from other companies, and then collect resumes and ask simple questions. If there is a company manager, they will also be interviewed on the spot, but they will soon leave, leaving only ordinary employees, introducing the company, receiving resumes, and that's it.

This month, Magnolia has submitted more than 100 resumes, but has not received a single feedback call.

This weekend, the Convention and Exhibition Center held a high-tech talent recruitment fair, and Magnolia knew that there was no hope, but she still came, and she didn't want to give up this opportunity.

The day passed quickly, and she didn't submit a resume, didn't eat, and drank only a bottle of water. Slowly, many booths began to close, and for each stall, she moved on to the next one.

Li Yan had been looking at Magnolia for a long time behind the booth of Shusen Company, and when she saw her coming, she motioned for her to sit on the stool next to her and rest.

"Thank you for your attention, we will hold an interview at nine o'clock in the morning on Tuesday, if you receive a phone call, please be sure to come, this is our company's business card, thank you!" The girl wearing the company's name tag next to Li Yan skillfully sent away the last qualified job seeker in the primary selection, took a big sip of water from the cup, and said: "Sister Li, we can finally go, I'm tired!"

Magnolia sat down in thanks, silently watching as they sorted the resumes on the table into different file bags, and then into a box that was almost full.

Seeing that they were finally sorted out, Magnolia took a deep breath, stood up, thanked her, and prepared to leave, but stood on her feet again.

Li Yan saw her hesitation and asked, "This classmate, do you want to apply for our company? Do you bring your resume? You can show it to me, I guess you haven't found your favorite job yet." ”

Bai Magnolia's face was a little red, and she hurriedly took out a resume from her backpack, handed it to Li Yan with both hands, and said, "This ...... This is my resume, thank you!" Li Yan took the resume, opened it and read it carefully.

Bai Yulan looked at Li Yan's face, and hoped that she could put her resume in the file bag and take it back. Unfortunately, the miracle did not happen, and as on the previous occasions, the resume was returned: "I'm sorry classmate, our company is a high-tech enterprise, and your experience is not suitable." But don't give up, you can continue your education. Good luck with a good job. ”

These resumes were very heavy in Magnolia's hands, so heavy that she could barely hold them, and they seemed to be very light, as if there was magic power, driving her body to float out of the gate of the convention and exhibition center in a trance.

This was the last job fair she attended in Shanghai, and the money in her pocket could no longer support her until the next weekend for another job fair. What should she do? She didn't dare to think about the way home, and went back to that small restaurant to continue working? It was disgusting to think about it. There is really no way out, and this is how fate has driven her to a desperate situation again and again.

"Squeak! A black SUV abruptly stopped in front of her, blocking the way.

Magnolia looked dazed and continued to walk down the stairs and forward, suddenly finding a trolley facing her. Not seeing that the car had stopped, she hurried backwards, not wanting to trip over the steps, and staggered and fell heavily on the stone steps.

Ouyang Shu, who was wearing sunglasses, opened the car door and walked out.

"You, are you okay?" Ouyang Shu lowered his head sideways, glanced at Magnolia's legs with his eyes, and asked.

Bai Yulan hurriedly struggled to stand up, and kept saying in her mouth: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Ouyang Shu took the lead in picking up her backpack and a few pieces of resume paper, only to find that Bai Yulan's palm was also broken and bleeding outward. He hurriedly grabbed Magnolia's wrist: "Is this okay?" Let's go to the hospital first. ”

Magnolia bit her lip, endured the pain, shook off his hand, snatched the backpack, and said, "It's okay, it's really okay", and limped away.

Li Yan and her colleagues walked out with the document box, and when they saw Ouyang Shu standing in front of the car, they shouted: "Ouyang, you are here, come and help." ”

Ouyang Shu shrugged his shoulders and muttered, "This girl is obviously very serious." He walked over and took the box with both hands and walked towards the trunk of the car.

Li Yan looked at the back of Magnolia in the distance, and then looked at Ouyang Shu, "What, did you see that student?" The name is very good, called Magnolia, and the temperament is good, but the diploma is too low, and I couldn't even submit a resume at today's job fair. ”

Tuesday was Magnolia's last day at the hotel, and if she couldn't find a job, she would have slept at the train station tonight.

Looking at the freshly scabbed wounds on his hands and legs, Li Yan's gentle face flashed in his mind. In a flash of inspiration, she made a decision, a decision to change her fate, a decision to challenge her consistent principles, although it violated the rules of Li Yan and their company, but so what, everything will not be worse, right? She believed in Li Yan's kindness to her, and she was ready to beg Li Yan to help her, as long as it was a good and serious company, even if she went there to clean up, she would be willing.

Ouyang Shu saw Yang Zishan from a distance, although there were a few tables apart. The occupancy rate of the hotel has reached 7%, but it is very quiet. The guests are either in suits and leather shoes, or their skirts are fluttering, and their words are so beautiful that they can't hear the noise.

Of course, he also saw the man who clinked glasses with Yang Zishan, brightly dressed, fair-skinned, and neatly groomed sideburns and eyebrows, maybe he was a new film and television star.

He chose a window seat and sat down with the man and woman on his back. Wang Wenbin, who came with him, had to sit opposite him, just like before, he would always be his supporting role, Ouyang Shu chose, and he followed.

"You still like to come here to eat. The last time I came with you was three years ago, right?" Wang Wenbin looked around with some emotion.

"If you don't like it, let's change places?"

Wang Wenbin waved his hand again and again: "It's it, it's it, it's good." ”

Ouyang Shu quickly ordered the food and drinks, and Wang Wenbin couldn't help but smile and shake his head when he saw that the waiter brought Wittes ice wine, "When did you like this sweet thing?"

Ouyang Shu stared at him, "After you went to Germany, when I wanted to beat you." ”

After speaking, he stared at Wang Wenbin seriously until he leaned forward and backward with an exaggerated smile, but he didn't have a high voice.

Ouyang Shu ate quickly, and a lesson of steak quickly went down. Wang Wenbin saw that he was casually looking at his watch, and knew that there must be something to do in the afternoon, so he cooperated and quickly finished eating.

Ouyang Shu poured wine for Wang Wenbin, but he didn't drink it. Wang Wenbin knew that he was going to drive, so he had to touch his water glass, "Next time I come back to find a resort, let's get drunk." ”

Wang Wenbin lived very close, Ouyang Shu drove him to the hotel, turned around and returned to the place where he had eaten just now. The waiter saw that he drove the car back and wanted to step forward to help him park, but he closed the car door, walked quickly into the hall, and sure enough, he saw Yang Zishan and the man going downstairs hand in hand.

He stood at the top of the stairs, shrugged one side of his eyebrows, and looked at Yang Zishan who was slightly frightened.

The two people quickly let go of the hand they were holding, and Yang Zishan pretended to be calm and walked over, her face flushed, I don't know if it was because of the wine or the nourishment of love, or the cowardice of being caught in adultery.

"Ouyang, let me introduce you, this gentleman is ......"

Ouyang Shu quickly interrupted her: "It doesn't matter who this gentleman is, and I'm not interested in knowing. You'll have surgery the day after tomorrow, and you'll arrive earlier. ”

After speaking, Ouyang Shu turned around and left, regardless of Yang Zishan's call behind him, "Ouyang, I will go, wait for me, you listen to my explanation, Ouyang ......"

At the door, the waiter is directing the new guests to bypass his car and drive towards the parking lot. He got in the car and started the engine and quickly left.

This is the third time, and it was the third time that he was caught. Although the men are different every time, it is by no means the level of intimacy of ordinary friends. Ouyang Shu couldn't figure out what he had done wrong, why he made his home not like home, his lover not like his lover, and his child had been fighting against death since birth.

And he couldn't explain all this to his father, because according to his father's logic, there was something wrong with his ability. Even if she was sick, her father thought it was his problem, that he didn't take good care of them, that he didn't find a specialist in time, that he neglected the pregnancy checkup, in short, it was his fault. He had no choice but to settle things and let Yang Zishan continue to play the role of the good daughter-in-law of the Ouyang family.

From the moment he was born, he was a proud son, and there was nothing that he could not get. If his grades in primary school were not good and he could not be admitted to middle school, he would be able to go to the best key middle school with his father's sponsorship; in junior high school, he beat his rival to the head for a girl, and the principal personally took him to apologize to others, but he did not tell his father, for fear of causing trouble to his father; in high school, he suddenly got his senses, and his grades in all subjects were among the best, and he went to the United States to study at university. After experiencing the pain of going to the country and nostalgia, he received a doctorate in chemistry from Stanford University and returned to his hometown. At the age of 27, he co-founded a chemical analysis company with his classmates, consciously did not know how to operate, and handed it over to a manager to take care of, he and his classmates invested their respective patents, and in five years, the company has been on the right track. Although he is the boss, he only serves as the company's technical director, seeking benevolence.

Only the family affairs are a mess. He was distraught, the wheels were pressed against the railing of the parking space, and he knew that it was too late to brake again.

Walking into the 26th floor of Block B, the gate of Shusen Company, there are still some people waiting for interviews in the corridor. When they saw him come in, they all saluted. Mental activity of the applicant: Maybe this person will become their superior, maybe their politeness can be seen by the company's management.

The girl named Magnolia was still there, looking like she wanted to say something, and her clear eyes followed his footsteps. He nodded slightly and returned to his office.

Closed the door, pulled off his tie fiercely, sat on the boss's chair, and raised his eyes to see Yang Zishan, who was holding a baby in the frame, smiling at him gently. He snapped the photo onto the table, and still in anger, picked it up and slammed it on the ground. The glass shattered, the frame fell apart, and it spilled all over the floor.

"Tuk, tuk, tuk"

There was a knock on the door, barely audible.

"Who?" he yelled. No one came in.

"Tuk 、... Tuk"

The knock sounded again, and he walked around the boss's desk, strode to the door, and slammed it open.

Outside the door was a delicate face, looking up at him, timid and stubborn. It's that magnolia.

He reflexively walked over to the couch and sat down, looking up at her.

The girl hesitated, and several times turned her head to the left, as if to turn back. Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he entered the house, turned around and closed the door, and came to him.

"Can you please help, I want to apply for your company, please. ”

Ouyang Shu looked at her: "I'm sorry, you found the wrong person, I'm not responsible for recruitment." I'm just a technical director. Oh, how's your injury?"

The girl ignored his question and said quickly, "But I can only look for you, because ...... Because...... Because Mr. Li refuses to see me...... I know you're the president, and I hear them...... Actually, I just want to apply for a secretary, the salary I ask for is very low, you will definitely be able to help, please. ”

Ouyang Shu looked at the beads of sweat on the tip of the girl's nose, and just wanted to say something,

"Tick Ring, Bell Ring......" The phone rang.

"Honey, why is your phone turned off? Can you listen to me?"

"I'm sorry, I have something. He hung up the phone, his eyes gloomy, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

"Ouyang Shu... Sir?" the girl's timid voice sounded again.

Ouyang Shu turned his head to look at her, the same tall, the same fair-skinned, this is a woman, the woman who brought him troubles, he thought that there would be a difference, no desire and no desire, and he would bear it alone when he was hurt and suffered, but in fact, no, no.

"Why are you here? Why do you think I can help you, you fell on purpose that day, right? You're all good at acting! Get out!"

Magnolia was frightened by the sudden anger, she looked at him in a daze, then suddenly turned around and ran out of the house quickly.
