Based on the information currently available, his biological parents must be extraordinary, but their identities are fraught with danger and unknowns.

After all, the current environment is harsh, and the higher one's status, the more dangerous it may be. This is a turbulent and ever-changing era.

He really didn't want to be dragged into those complicated struggles for no reason.

"Alright then, since you're not interested in knowing, I won't look it up, and I'll save the points." Xia Wan looked disappointed, pouting as she muttered, "Then I'll go to the county first. Dad, be careful leaving yourself at home! Or should I lock the door for you?"

After saying that, she looked at her father with her big, concerned eyes.

Xia Jianguo smiled and found it amusing to see his daughter looking so nervous and on edge. However, to put her at ease, he nodded and softly replied, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

When this old house was renovated, the courtyard wall was specially raised considerably.

In this way, as long as the door can be locked, its security is quite reliable unless a criminal forces his way in.

As for Wu Sangui, whatever his true intentions, if he wanted to continue living a normal life, he probably wouldn't have gone so far as to brazenly break into someone else's house in broad daylight.

Besides, I just promised that woman yesterday that I would get rid of Xia Jianguo. Even if I really want to take action, I should at least take some time to prepare.

On a summer morning, sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows. Xia Wan rode her slightly worn bicycle at breakneck speed to the county seat.

At this time, there was still half an hour before the exam started, but many people had already gathered outside the food factory exam hall to take the exam.

Most of these people were around twenty years old, and their youthful faces couldn't hide their nervousness.

Xia Wan curiously scanned the crowd. Suddenly, a familiar figure caught her eye—it was Huang Qiujie.

This was truly beyond Xia Wan's expectations.

Huang Qiujie was standing in the corner, talking eloquently to the person next to him.

She slightly raised her chin, her expression haughty, as if she were the center of attention.

Although Xia Wan was far away from them and couldn't hear the specific content of their conversation, it wasn't hard to guess from the envious looks in the eyes of those around her that the female protagonist was probably boasting about her abilities again.

Seeing this, Xia Wan couldn't help but scoff. This female lead was bragging again.

Where no one knows her, Huang Qiujie loves to boast. She enjoys being fawned over, even if it's just insincere or superficial.

Xia Wan had no interest in finding out how Huang Qiujie learned about the recruitment information, as it was none of her business.

Nowadays, many plot points have deviated from the original book's setting, so it seems unsurprising that the female protagonist wants to find a job.

Just as Xia Wan was casually looking around, a strange voice suddenly came from beside her: "Do you know that person?"

Upon hearing the sound, Xia Wan instinctively turned her head to look, and what came into view was a cute girl with two braids.

The girl's eyes were like torches, staring intently at him as if she wanted to see right through him.

Upon closer inspection, one can see that the girl's eyes are clear as water, like two sparkling gems.

At this moment, she pointed at Huang Qiujie, who was speaking, her eyes revealing undisguised deep disgust.

Seeing this, Xia Wan smiled slightly, shook her head gently, and said, "I don't know her."

Upon hearing this, the girl's tense face instantly relaxed, and she turned to Xia Wan with an incredibly friendly smile, enthusiastically introducing herself: "My name is Zheng Yawen, what's your name? Which workshop are you here to apply for?"

Looking at the innocent girl in front of her, Xia Wan couldn't feel the slightest bit of dislike.

So she smiled and replied, "Hello, my name is Xia Wan. But I only heard from relatives that the food factory is hiring, and I don't know much about the details. I didn't know there were so many different types of factory workers?"

After saying that, she blinked her big eyes and looked at Zheng Yawen curiously.

Before this, she had only seen the food factory's job posting in the search system and rushed over without knowing what type of workers they were looking for.

She had naively assumed that all workers in the food factory had the same job duties and treatment, but now it seems that this is not the case.

And now I have the opportunity to ask Zheng Yawen, who seems to be very kind-hearted, a lot of questions.

As expected, Zheng Yawen was a restless person. Hearing Xia Wan ask this question, she immediately began to explain: "It used to be the same, but this time I heard that they are recruiting separately. The food factory has built a new branch factory, which I heard is for food research and development, but they only recruit people with high school diplomas. A large number of people have already been rejected."

Xia Wan nodded, indicating that she understood what the other person meant, and then asked curiously, "So what kind of job do you plan to take the exam for?"

At this moment, Zheng Yawen suddenly leaned closer to Xia Wan, lowered her voice mysteriously as if afraid of being overheard, and whispered in Xia Wan's ear:

"Of course, I was thinking of trying both jobs. I planned to take the exam for the branch factory worker position first, and if I didn't pass, I would then apply for the ordinary worker position."

Anyway, no matter which one I get into, it's a win-win situation for me! You know, this branch factory is only hiring three workers, and not only that, their requirements are quite high. I heard that you also need to have certain cooking skills..."

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Yawen began to recount the various inside information she had obtained, as if pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

When she got excited, she even raised her eyebrows at Xia Wan with a smug look on her face and said proudly, "How about it? Isn't the information I have here much more valuable and practical than what that woman said!"

Seeing this, Xia Wan couldn't help but smile and nodded politely, replying, "That's true, the information you provided is indeed very useful. But speaking of which, aren't the exam times for these two positions the same?"

It seems the system isn't omnipotent; the information isn't very accurate.

According to Zheng Yawen, the newly opened branch factory should be recruiting food research and development personnel, right?

Xia Wan wanted to try them all, but she didn't know much about food; she only knew a few modern recipes.
