Meng Zihan waited at home for two days, but there was still no word from Zhang Tingting.
Her heart began to pound, and she felt uncertain and anxious.
"Could it be that Zhang Tingting is deliberately trying to trick me? Is she playing a fool?"
"Or is it that she simply doesn't have the ability and can't find a way in?"
But she only dared to think these words in her heart and dared not express them aloud.
After all, he had boasted so much to Ye Zhenghua before that Ye Zhenghua would often come over to ask how his job search was going.
They subtly and overtly mocked her, asking if she had been scammed and whether she had paid any deposits or similar things.
Every time Meng Zihan saw Ye Zhenghua's stern face and the twins' disdainful looks during meals, she would get so angry that her liver would ache.
What frustrates her most is that even if she wanted to go to work in the cafeteria now, it's too late.
The position that was originally promised to her was taken by Meng Xueyun!
Meng Xueyun is now very satisfied with her job at the cafeteria every day.
After work, he would bring back leftover food from the cafeteria to improve his family's meals.
The Ye family ate with great relish, praising Meng Xueyun's virtue and kindness.
Meng Zihan has seen the world and eaten the most expensive Western food in Jiangcheng City. She doesn't even want to look at these leftovers, let alone eat them.
She couldn't help but go out onto the balcony again, stick her head out, and look at the sign for the public telephone downstairs, hoping that the old lady from that place would come out and call her name.
This was her countless hopes, but unfortunately, they were all dashed each time.
She felt very regretful.
If only I had been shameless enough to ask Zhang Tingting for her phone number that day, I could have called her to ask about the situation and urge her to hurry up.
Now all I can do is sit at home like an idiot and wait!
Just as she was feeling upset, she vaguely heard the phone ringing downstairs.
"Ring ring ring..."
Meng Zihan jumped up and leaned half her body out to listen to what the old lady guarding the phone had to say.
This time she wasn't disappointed. The older woman quickly came out and called upstairs, "Meng Zihan, the phone!"
"Mine! Find mine!"
Meng Zihan immediately responded loudly, "Coming, coming! Coming down right now!"
She rushed downstairs and ran towards the public phone.
"It's a woman," the older woman said to her from afar.
Meng Zihan had no intention of responding to her. She ran to the phone and grabbed it.
"Hello? This is Meng Zihan."
"It's me, Zhang Tingting."
Zhang Tingting's arrogant voice came from the other end of the phone.
Meng Zihan's heart jumped into her throat, filled with both anticipation and nervousness.
"I've found you a job at Jiangcheng Normal College. You can work as a counselor for two years and then study for two more years. You'll graduate with a diploma as usual. Accommodation is provided, meals are in the cafeteria, and there's a meal allowance. The monthly salary is 200 yuan."
Zhang Tingting's voice was full of superiority, as if she were giving alms.
"Pack your things as soon as possible, go to school to register, just give my name. Call me when you're settled, and don't forget what we agreed on."
She finished speaking to herself and hung up the phone with a "snap" without waiting for Meng Zihan's reply.
Holding the ringing phone, Meng Zihan felt a slight disappointment.
Jiangcheng Teachers College?
Although it has the name of a university, it is actually just a junior college!
She's going to study at Jiangcheng University!
A junior college degree won't do!
Moreover, what can you do after graduating from a teacher's college?
Become a teacher?
Being a teacher is hard and tiring; she doesn't want to do it!
The salary was pitifully low, a world of difference compared to the job Ye Linchen found after graduation.
But Zhang Tingting didn't give her a chance to refuse, and probably wouldn't give her the right to refuse.
To be fair, this job is indeed the best she has ever had.
It's easy, respectable, and you don't have to be exposed to the elements. There's also accommodation, which saves a lot of money. And if all else fails, you can go to university.
"Forget it, let's just take it one step at a time." Meng Zihan sighed, trying to comfort herself. "I'll go to class first, and then try to get along with Zhang Tingting so she can help me find someone better."
Since Zhang Tingting is so capable, and I've helped her vent her anger, it's not unreasonable to make some more requests, right?
After paying the phone bill, Meng Zihan felt much less upset.
In any case, I can now handle Ye Zhenghua's questioning.
She returned home, cleared her throat, and raised her voice, "Auntie, Uncle, I've got a job!"
Meng Xueyun leaned closer and bombarded her with questions: "Is it settled? What kind of job is it? Where do you work? How much is the salary?"
Ye Zhenghua sat on the sofa, listening intently, but his eyes were fixed on the TV, pretending to be completely indifferent.
"If you work as a counselor at Jiangcheng Teachers College for two years, you can go to the school to study. After two years, you will graduate with a teacher's diploma. The school provides accommodation and a meal allowance, and the monthly salary is 200 yuan."
Although he spoke casually, Meng Zihan was secretly very pleased with himself.
This is on a completely different level compared to the cleaning and cafeteria work that Ye Zhenghua introduced at the vocational college!
He's worked for so many years and been a director for so many years, yet he's not as capable as me. He should really feel ashamed!
Meng Xueyun was surprised to find such a good job and exclaimed, "Wow, where did you find this job? Is it reliable? Don't think you've been scammed!"
Meng Zihan said impatiently, "Auntie, I'm about to go to school to register. This is a legitimate university, how could you lie to me?"
Ye Zhenghua also found it unbelievable and simply couldn't believe it.
"You won't give up until you hit a brick wall! If something this good really happened, would it be possible for a high school student with a criminal record like you? Don't tell me you're being sold out and still helping the seller count the money!"
"Meng Zihan, let me make this clear: if they come looking for money to ransom you, we don't have a single penny!"
Hearing Ye Zhenghua say this, Meng Xueyun became even more worried.
"No, Xiaohan, I'll go with you! If things go wrong, I'll bring you back. I raised you with so much effort, I can't just watch you jump into a fire pit! No job is no job, the family won't starve!"
Meng Zihan rolled her eyes, about to retort, but then she thought that it would be fine to let Meng Xueyun go along.
Let her see for herself how glamorous and capable she is, and make her regret how she treated her before.
"Let's go together then."
Meng Zihan agreed.
She had been packing her things for the past two days, ready to leave at any time, so it didn't take her long to pack and she finished quickly.
She said goodbye to Ye Zhenghua and the twin brothers who had come with her, and then boarded the bus to Jiangcheng Normal College with Meng Xueyun.
When they arrived at the school gate, Meng Zihan gave the gatekeeper Zhang Tingting's name.
The security guard had already been notified and knew that someone was coming to report today, so he immediately called the academic affairs office.
Not long after, a middle-aged female teacher surnamed Sun rushed over.
