Zheng Yawen stared wide-eyed at Xia Wan in astonishment, as if she had heard something out of a fairy tale.
Everyone knows how difficult it is to find a job these days, yet this person actually passed the exam but didn't want it!
What is this if not madness?
"You worked so hard to get this job, why are you just giving it up like that? Are you still thinking about the job at the branch factory? Oh, you're such a fool!"
We need to focus on the jobs we can get right now. The outcome at the branch factory is still uncertain; who knows if it will even work out? If you give up here too easily, and the branch factory also fails, what will you do then? Will you just slink back to the countryside to farm again?"
Zheng Yawen grew angrier the more she thought about it, her impatience rising like a volcano about to erupt, which she could no longer contain.
However, she was still mindful of the people coming and going around her, and was afraid of attracting unnecessary attention and trouble, so she refrained from shouting at the top of her lungs.
Even so, she kept muttering to Xia Wan in her low voice, her tone full of disappointment and frustration, as if Xia Wan had made some terrible mistake.
Xia Wan stood there innocently, feeling helpless in the face of Zheng Yawen's barrage of questions.
Actually, she hadn't thought that much about it, and she wasn't just waiting for the branch factory job as Zheng Yawen had guessed.
The main reason she refused the job was that she simply couldn't stand being a worker on an assembly line.
She knew her own personality all too well; that kind of monotonous, repetitive lifestyle was torture for her, and it was impossible for her to stick to it for long.
"Oh dear, that's not it, Yawen, you've really misunderstood me. Don't panic, let me explain!"
Xia Wan anxiously reached out and grabbed Zheng Yawen, who was about to launch into a long speech.
"Actually, I've already become a sent-down youth. Not only that, I also unexpectedly found my biological parents. But fate is cruel; my father is now paralyzed in bed and will have to go to Beijing for treatment in a few days."
Under these circumstances, I simply can't commute to the city for work every day. Left with no other option, I've decided to sell my current job; that's the best course of action for now.
Upon hearing Xia Wan's earnest explanation, Zheng Yawen was stunned. For a moment, she seemed to be frozen in place, her mouth slightly open but unable to utter a sound.
After a while, she slowly came to her senses, but she no longer went on and on criticizing Xia Wan as before. Instead, she silently looked at Xia Wan with eyes full of regret and sorrow, as if she wanted to convey her deep sympathy and reluctance for Xia Wan's plight through her gaze.
"So... you must be really short of money right now, right? That's why you're forced to sell your job? Don't worry, wait here for me, I'll find you a suitable person right away! This person desperately needs a job, and their family is extremely wealthy, they'll definitely be able to offer you a price you'll be satisfied with!"
Before she finished speaking, Zheng Yawen turned around and ran towards the bustling crowd not far away, as if she had oil on her feet.
Xia Wan watched helplessly as Zheng Yawen disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye. She saw Zheng Yawen nimbly weave through the throng and quickly spot her target: a slightly plump girl with fair skin.
Immediately afterwards, Zheng Yawen rushed to the little girl, grabbed her arm without saying a word, and dragged her back all the way.
At the same time, Zheng Yawen kept whispering something to the little girl, her expression showing great excitement and agitation.
Only when the two of them ran up to her, panting heavily, did Zheng Yawen stop. After catching her breath, she straightened up and said to the girl in front of her:
"Hey! This is the new friend I just told you about, Xia Wan. You didn't pass the exam, right? I have good news for you, she did! And, if the price is right, she's willing to sell this job to you. What do you think?"
Zheng Yawen is a kind-hearted and warm-hearted girl.
Just now, when she heard Xia Wan recount her family's situation, she couldn't help but feel a surge of sympathy.
It turns out that Xia Wan's father is seriously ill and urgently needs money for treatment. In order to raise this expensive medical expenses, Xia Wan is trying her best to earn money.
That's why Zheng Yawen mistakenly thought Xia Wan desperately needed money and decided to help this seemingly pitiful girl.
It has to be said that this is quite a misunderstanding.
Xia Wan, standing to the side, was speechless. She muttered to herself, "Why is this girl so direct... But thankfully, she has some sense of propriety and knows to consider that there are other people around, so she deliberately lowered her voice and didn't shout."
On the other side, Shen Jia, who had been forcibly dragged over by Zheng Yawen, appeared extremely excited, even thrilled.
Her eyes widened in disbelief as she asked, "What? Is what you're saying true? Zheng Ya-wen, you're not joking about something like this!"
"What good would it do me to lie to you? Take it or leave it, there are plenty of other people who will!" Zheng Yawen said angrily, then turned and walked away in a hurry, as if she was about to go find other buyers.
Seeing this, Shen Jia panicked and quickly reached out to grab Zheng Yawen tightly, her face full of anxiety, fearing that she would let this rare opportunity slip away if she wasn't careful: "No, no, no, I want it, of course I want it, please don't rush!"
After finally managing to stop Zheng Yawen, Shen Jia quickly turned around and looked directly at Xia Wan beside her, asking urgently, "Comrade, are you really planning to sell this job?"
Xia Wan nodded, then pulled the two of them to a corner. Once they were standing still in the corner, Xia Wan lowered her voice and replied, "That's right, if the price is right, I am indeed prepared to sell this job."
Hearing this, Shen Jia was overjoyed, and an excited expression immediately appeared on her face. She quickly said, "How about this? I'll pay you six hundred yuan to buy your job. What do you think?"
However, before Xia Wan could say anything, Zheng Yawen interrupted, complaining with a look of disgust: "Ugh, what six hundred? That's too little! Didn't your older brother just spend a thousand and one hundred yuan to buy a job a few days ago?"
