"Don't be in a hurry to thank me first, whether you can succeed in the interview depends on yourself." Director Cao nodded at me with a little deep meaning, and then after greeting Manager Ren and Assistant Chang, he left the cubicle.

"Lin, please take a seat!" Assistant Chang motioned for me to sit down across from them, and after I said thank you, I sat down generously, then took out a resume from my bag and handed it to the manager.

"Our company has carefully read the information of Lin's students through the job search platform set up by your school, and we are satisfied with Miss Ye's professional knowledge and the comprehensive evaluation of University B. Manager Ren took my information and browsed it roughly, and said straight to the point: "However, because of Lin's lack of work experience, we have to hire you as an intern in the design department first, and after the internship period, you will be regularized, but it will still be an apprentice, if Lin's ability and performance are recognized by the company, you will be able to be promoted to a designer assistant, and then an assistant designer, a base to a designer, etc., the salary during the internship period and apprenticeship is 5,000 yuan per month, and after being promoted to the position of assistant, the salary will be 30%~." 50% adjustment, the working hours are 40 hours per week, but there may be overtime opportunities in the early stage of the apprenticeship, of course, overtime pay will be extra, in Hongda, there will be a lot of job opportunities, depending on whether you dare to challenge. ”

"Dare, of course I dare!" I nodded again and again, thinking that I could get a salary of 5,000 yuan during the internship period, and I could get overtime pay, and there may be many promotion opportunities in the future.

"That's good!" Manager Ren also nodded, and continued: "However, we only have one request, that is, Lin needs to go to Luzhou City to work, I don't know if you have any objections?" ”

"Luzhou City?" I was dumbfounded when I heard it, although Luzhou City is a neighboring city of Zhanyang City, and it takes more than an hour to drive, but when I think about being so far away from Situ Yunzhe, I am extremely entangled, but finally a large enterprise takes a fancy to it, but it is made such an embarrassing request.

"Student Lin doesn't have to be entangled, my company can give you three days to think about it, whether you go or not after three days, you can give Assistant Chang an answer!" Manager Ren saw that I was a little hesitant, so he reminded me in a timely manner.

"That's really embarrassing, I must think about it in the past three days, thank Manager Ren for the grace time." I was pleasantly surprised, thinking that it must be pie in the sky, otherwise with my mediocre results, how could I be favored by a large real estate company?

After a short period of excitement, I calmed down and asked Manager Ren and Assistant Chang sincerely, "Manager Ren, Assistant Chang, I have a question for the two of you?" ”

"Classmate Lin, excuse me!" Manager Ren stretched out his hand and motioned for me to ask a question.

"That's—" I hesitated to speak, and finally under the encouraging eyes of the manager, I continued stubbornly: "Even if the students majoring in architectural design are more suitable for the needs of your company, why would you admit me, a student majoring in landscape design?" ”

"Haha, I guess you're going to ask that." Manager Ren laughed, and just now the serious judgment of the two, after laughing, he continued: "architectural design students, we also selected some of the best, Hongda not only build factories and housing, garden architecture business is also quite a lot, so the company will recruit some excellent landscape design graduates every year for special training, especially now, the country continues to advocate environmental protection, so Hongda will pay more attention to green construction in the future, but for your professional talents, the demand will be more and more, At present, only three students of landscape architecture have been admitted, and they are all admitted in the name of apprentices, with the same treatment and the same starting point. So, come on! ”

"Thank you Manager Ren for explaining it to me in such detail, I will definitely consider it carefully." I was relieved, and quickly got up to thank Manager Ren and Assistant Chang, and before leaving, Assistant Chang gave me her contact information.

This was the scene when I first approached Hongda Real Estate, and I still remember it vividly after many years.

That day, after leaving the gymnasium, I felt relaxed, and ran briskly towards the place where Situ Yunzhe was waiting, but when I approached him, I heard him talking to his mobile phone, and his voice was mixed with impatience and faintly angry.

In my impression, Situ Yunzhe has always been a calm and self-disciplined person, never easily angry with others, and pays more attention to his own image in public.

Mischievous and curious, I approached him quietly and pricked up my ears to hear what he had to say.

……

"Mom, I declare again that I can't afford marriage yet, that is, I don't want to get married now."

……

"It's not that she's bad, it's that I'm not mentally prepared yet, and besides, we're all young now, and it's not too late to talk about marriage after working for a few years."

……

"Mom, when we want to get married, I will definitely take her home to see you and Dad, it's too early, that's it." Situ Yunzhe hung up the phone impatiently, and after a few steps back and forth anxiously in place, he suddenly stopped, as if telepathically, turned around and looked straight at me, "Shen'er—"

"I'm sorry! I—I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I held back the sadness in my heart, and tried my best to throw a far-fetched smile at Situ Yunzhe as if nothing had happened.

"Shen'er, listen to my explanation!" Situ Yunzhe saw that I was so calm, but he was very anxious to explain to me.

"No, Ah Zhe, you don't have to explain to me, what you want to say has been made very clear on the phone just now." I stopped Situ Yunzhe and continued to say to him: "If you don't want to get married, then don't get married, it's true, we are still young, and it won't be a big deal to work for another three or five years." I walked out of the campus.

"Shen'er, where are you going?" Situ Yunzhe pulled me behind him.

"I'm going out for an interview, please don't follow me." I subconsciously stopped Situ Yunzhe and didn't let him follow me.

"I'll go with you!" Situ Yunzhe didn't seem to be at ease with me, but still followed.

"I'll take a long time, so please don't follow me." I smiled at him, ignoring the worry in his eyes, and continued to walk towards the outside of the campus, but Situ Yunzhe still didn't feel at ease and followed me.

After leaving the school gate, I suddenly started running, Situ Yunzhe never ran in B University, so I thought that he must not be a good runner, so I ran forward with all my strength, and sure enough, he was quickly left behind by me.

The wind whistling in my ears was very pleasant in this hot early summer, and I ran for a long time, until I felt that it was difficult to breathe, as if I only had the feeling of breathing out but not in, and then I stopped.

It turns out that this is the feeling of running thoroughly, the feeling of running from a pleasant pleasure to the pain of suffocation.

I leaned against a big tree and gasped for breath, and my eyes flowed out of breath at this moment, and I wiped two handfuls of tears with my sleeve and let the passers-by pass me with surprised eyes.

I took out my phone and looked at the time, it was only past three o'clock, I directly ignored the pile of missed calls, and simply turned off the phone.

Standing back on the side of the wide road, I suddenly felt that my behavior was very funny, he Situ Yunzhe didn't want to get married, so he wouldn't get married, could I be so cheap to myself? After all these years without him, I still have a good life.

After comforting myself, my mood was slightly better, probably because I ran for too long and my physical energy was too much, and I felt a little hungry.

I looked helplessly around and fumbled in my pockets, trying to find a small restaurant to satisfy my sudden craving for non-curricular food.

Looking around blankly, I don't know where to go, suddenly, out of nowhere, out of nowhere the aroma of the lotus root incense comes, in this hot summer, it is not the tonic season of lotus root soup, but I am still attracted by it, I took two deep breaths, followed the lotus root to look around, and my eyes stayed in a small restaurant called 'Zhenxin Restaurant' in the opposite street, the kitchen of the restaurant, is wafting out a fragrant lotus fragrance.

I was already a little hungry, but the fragrance of lotus root stirred my appetite even more, and my footsteps moved involuntarily.

I forgot about my unhappiness for a moment, crossed the crosswalk, and walked briskly towards the small restaurant, not directly through the main entrance of the restaurant, but through the narrow alleyway next to the restaurant, towards the kitchen of this restaurant.

At this time, a familiar figure came into view, "Duan Ruochen—"

I covered my mouth in surprise and screamed.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a white coat and a white hat next to Duan Ruochen, who looked like a chef, who was saying something to him, and seeing Duan Ruochen standing in front of the chef with a humble appearance, it was a bit like he was learning to cook.

"This classmate, what do you want to eat, please go and sit inside!" At this time, a young waitress came out of the restaurant, and when she saw that I was not leaving the main entrance of the restaurant, she came to the kitchen floor, so she asked me curiously.

I smiled at the girl far-fetchedly, took a few steps closer to the kitchen, and looked at Duan Ruochen stupidly.

"Ye Shen'er, why are you here?" Perhaps out of instinct, Duan Ruochen suddenly raised his head, he was stunned for a moment when he saw me, and then smiled, his smile was warm and moving, and his neat white teeth also looked extremely dazzling in the slightly dim kitchen.

It's been almost four years in B University, and I've never seen Duan Ruochen smile so happily, so I didn't know that he also had such a sunny side.

"Well, I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat here?" I ignored why he was in the back kitchen of this restaurant, and asked mischievously, clutching my stomach.
