Before Gu Yifei could finish speaking, there was a soft "click" and the door to Gu Jingran's office suddenly opened.
"Yi Fei."
Those two short words felt like a bucket of ice water being poured over one's head.
Gu Yifei's arrogance instantly diminished, and he stiffly turned around to face Gu Jingran's cold and stern face.
Gu Jingran had one hand in his pocket and the other hand gripping the doorknob.
Her usually smiling eyes had lost all warmth, and the slight downward curve at the corners of her eyes made them appear exceptionally sharp.
"Apologize to Ye Linchen."
His voice was neither hurried nor slow, but firm and unwavering.
Gu Yifei's Adam's apple bobbed, and his clenched fists clenched and unclenched again. He had never seen his cousin like this before.
The oppressive aura emanating from his cousin, who always treated him gently, made him break out in a cold sweat.
He became the cold and aloof President Gu.
"Brother, you have no idea what happened, the Ye family..."
"I don't care what happened."
Gu Jingran walked slowly, his shiny leather shoes treading on the smooth ground, each step feeling like a tap on his heart.
"This is not how the Gu family treats its guests."
The atmosphere in the corridor froze for a moment.
Gu Yifei stiffened his neck, his face flushed red, and tried to explain himself, but he was defeated when he met Gu Jingran's sharp gaze.
"I'm...I'm sorry."
He gritted his teeth and forced out a few words at Ye Linchen, then immediately turned his face away, refusing to look at her again.
Ye Linchen nodded slightly, but he understood perfectly well what was going on.
This isn't a sincere apology; it's clearly something forced upon them.
However, she couldn't be bothered to argue with Gu Yifei; she had come today on an important matter.
I don't want to let him ruin my mood.
Ye Linchen said calmly, "I accept your apology. I hope you can watch your mouth in the future and not say things you shouldn't say."
"Don't go too far!" Gu Yifei said through gritted teeth.
Ye Linchen chuckled lightly, his eyes full of disdain.
"Whether I went too far or not is not for you to decide. Who do you think you are? A champion of justice? A savior? You're just an outsider. Don't make unwarranted comments about things you don't understand, and don't presumptuously criticize others. I advise you to be kind, but also to use your brain."
Gu Yifei's face turned pale and then red, as colorful as a palette, and his eyes were practically spitting fire.
But because Gu Jingran was still there, he didn't say anything more and bluntly said, "I'm leaving first."
He turned and left without looking back, and soon after, you could hear the sound of footsteps going downstairs.
Hearing the earth-shattering sound, Gu Jingran suppressed the coldness on his face and smiled at Ye Linchen.
"Feel sorry."
Ye Linchen shook his head: "It's okay, I don't care what he says."
Ye Linchen was not lying.
Her past life experiences had already shown her what Gu Yifei was like.
She now only feels disgust towards Gu Yifei and hopes he can stay far away from her and never have any contact with him again.
Therefore, she didn't care what Gu Yifei said and was not affected at all.
Seeing that she was composed, Gu Jingran said nothing more and led Ye Linchen into the office.
Ye Linchen followed him inside and couldn't help but look around.
The office has a large solid wood desk with a brand-new desktop computer on it.
Computers of that era were large and thick, like a big square box, completely different from the thin and light computers of later generations.
Even such a computer was rare in this era.
Behind the desk is a glass bookcase, neatly filled with hardcover books such as "Marketing" and "Business Management".
The words "Honesty Wins the World" are also hanging on the wall in calligraphy.
Gu Jingran walked to his desk and sat down, taking out a stack of stationery and a pen from the drawer: "Let's write resumes first."
His long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the letter paper.
"At the very beginning, write your personal information, personality, and strengths."
Ye Linchen nodded and began to write down his situation on the paper.
Her handwriting is neat and beautiful, making it pleasing to the eye.
"Next, write about your work experience." After Ye Linchen finished writing, Gu Jingran continued, "Since you don't have any work experience, we can start with your school experience, such as being an outstanding student, participating in school competitions, and holding positions, which are all good bonus points."
Ye Linchen shook his head: "I have no similar experience."
She thought for a moment and then added, "But I sold recyclables during my holidays, does that count?"
Gu Jingran couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Okay, but we need to beautify it a bit."
Next, Gu Jingran began to instruct Ye Linchen on how to "beautify" this experience.
"Identifying and seizing opportunities to make money demonstrates your business acumen and monetization ability; organizing classmates highlights your leadership and teamwork skills; negotiating with the other party showcases your negotiation skills..."
Ye Linchen hadn't expected there to be so many intricacies involved in selling scrap metal. As he wrote diligently, he couldn't help but marvel.
"With this kind of beautification, I feel like I'm pretty amazing."
Gu Jingran smiled and said, "You're already very capable, with exceptional courage, outstanding abilities, and a lot of ideas. I believe you'll have no problem getting this job."
Ye Linchen had never been praised like this before, and he immediately felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm not that good."
Gu Jingran looked at her shy expression, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
"Don't underestimate yourself. Everyone has their own strengths. You have to believe in yourself." After encouraging her, Gu Jingran asked, "What kind of public relations do you want to do?"
"I want to get advertising sponsorships. It doesn't require me to be in an office or work long hours, which suits me."
