Feng An studied under Cen Lan's secretary for a year, and Cen Yu also studied under Cen Lan for a year.

In the first half of the year, they were both exhausted. When they got home, they ate and went straight to sleep, completely devoid of their previous energy.

What about mugwort?

Artemisia is arguing with someone online.

Although she is not used to swearing, she also does not like to publicly express her thoughts online.

But Cen Lan said that Cen Yu's plan to open an all-female hotel was too radical, and without some groundwork, it would be difficult to attract investors and customers other than herself.

After hesitating for a while, Ai Cao agreed to the online "argument" and the actual promotional work.

Actually, Cen Lan initially intended for Ai Cao to become Cen Yu's secretary.

After all, with Ai Cao standing up, no one dared to speak ill of Cen Yu openly anymore.

But when Ai Cao secretly told her that she had a hereditary disease, Cen Lan gave up on the idea.

Ai Cao already has her own room in this villa—right next to Cen Yu's room. The room is simply furnished, with nothing valuable, just a bed and a table and chairs.

Every morning when she got up, she would wake up the sleepy Cen Yu, and the two of them would go downstairs together to have breakfast.

After breakfast, Cen Yu was to go to the company with Cen Lan. Feng An had arrived at the company earlier with his secretary.

Mugwort doesn't need to go to the company.

She works online... and they argued.

By mid-year, Cen Lan had bought a new plot of land to build a house. The land was by the river, offering a wide view, and the surrounding public facilities were also very complete.

This is a perfect place to build houses.

She plans to spend six months building a house and topping it out on this land.

It looked exactly like any other construction process—but her construction team, from technicians to workers, was entirely composed of women.

Cen Lan wanted to first try out the possibility of an "all-female team" using the idea proposed by Cen Yu.

She spoke with senior executives at several technical and academic institutions, and collected resumes from multiple job fairs; then she provided the recruiters responsible for entering the resumes with a clear and unquestionable selection criterion—

Only women.

Any woman who doesn't like men.

Even so, Cen Lan still received far more resumes than she had expected.

The reason is simple: she generally offers higher salaries, and the company has a good reputation.

Cen Yu rubbed her dark circles with a hint of pride and said, "See? I told you this had a market!"

Cen Lan smiled and praised her for being clever, then asked her how her homework was going. Cen Yu then ran off as if she had greased her feet, shouting that she wanted to take over Ai Cao's job.

With too many resumes, they were handed over to Feng An for another round of screening. Feng An threw all the resumes that showed timidity into the trash, leaving only those full of confidence. Since more information couldn't be discerned from the paper, Feng An then arranged the first interview.

The location was set in a conference room in the Cenlan Company building.

Cen Lan and Ai Cao watched from the sidelines without saying a word, while Cen Yu and Feng An were responsible for the entire interview process.

After returning home, Cen Yu was so worried that she pulled out a small clump of hair from Feng An's hair.

Feng An couldn't bear to say that he would go bald if he continued like this, so he let her play with him.

The two of them, in a bit of a chaotic frenzy, produced a list of questions the interviewer would ask and respectfully showed it to Cen Lan.

Cen Lan was leaning back on the sofa, chatting with Ai Cao for a few minutes.

Cen Lan glanced at it, didn't even turn the pages, and said, "It's pretty good, let's do it this way."

Cen Yu was so frightened that she stayed up all night again, carefully going through the list of questions one by one. If she hadn't been completely unable to find anything wrong with it, she probably would have created another version 2.0 of the interview questions.

On the day of the interview, the four of them sat behind a long table in the conference room. Cen Lan had a cup of tea in front of her, while Ai Cao had a glass of warm water. Cen Lan had an iced Americano and a manuscript in front of her, while Feng An only had a stack of papers and a few pens.

The meeting room door slowly opened.

A slightly nervous yet confident young female student pushed open the door. She wore light makeup and looked like she had carefully groomed herself; she also seemed to have washed her hair, but it was too thin and lacked any volume.

She saw four women with different appearances and expressions in the conference room.

She paused, the door she was pushing shut also stopping. She glanced up at the conference room number, her tense expression lessening.

The female student entered the conference room.

This wasn't her first job interview, but it was the first time she had ever trusted a closed space so much.

She suddenly had a subtle intuition.

She had to get this job—it was through this position that she could have a better life.

She closed the door.

The female student walked up to the four men and said loudly, "I am..."

After asking one question, he moved on to the next.

In just one afternoon, Cen Yu's interview questioning skills improved by leaps and bounds. At the beginning, she was still asking questions from the script, such as "You're not a local, why did you come to this city?", to "What do you think your advantages are?", and then she started by saying, "Let me hear you swear."

She already understands what she needs to clarify in the interview.

Cen Yu wanted to understand things that couldn't be seen on their resumes. For example, what emotions they used when they said "castrate your father," and what their views were on their mothers and fathers.

She saw many interviewees who said they didn't like men, but during the interview they showed a strong desire to "have a son" or "have both a son and a daughter".

Upon hearing this, Cen Yu mentally categorized them as the type who were impossible to communicate with and added them to her hiring blacklist.
