Jiang Xinyue gave a soft "oh" and turned her gaze back to the computer screen, no longer speaking.
Bo Jingcheng was somewhat unsure of her attitude and felt increasingly uneasy, but seeing that Jiang Xinyue didn't seem to want to delve into it, he forced a smile and asked, "Um, wife, are you busy?"
"Mm," Jiang Xinyue replied without turning her head.
"Then I'll take my son to take a bath first."
Seeing that Jiang Xinyue did not suspect anything or ask any further questions, Bo Jingcheng breathed a slight sigh of relief and then took Bo Xuan to wash up and rest.
After the father and son left the room, a resolute glint flashed in Jiang Xinyue's eyes.
She looked at the reply email from "Shengshi Group," which invited her to an interview the next day.
This is a highly influential company in the design field, and Jiang Xinyue knows that this is her chance to start over.
She quickly replied to the email, confirmed the interview time, and then began preparing her interview materials.
When Bo Jingcheng and his son came out after taking a shower, Jiang Xinyue was nowhere to be seen.
"Daddy, where did Mommy go?"
"Let's go check out the next room."
Bo Jingcheng felt that it was too late for Jiang Xinyue to have run away from home.
So Bo Jingcheng led Bo Xuan and tiptoed to the next room.
Bo Jingcheng quietly opened the door and saw Jiang Xinyue lying alone on the bed, already asleep.
"Daddy, Mommy seems to be asleep."
Bo Jingcheng quickly made a shushing gesture, "Shh, let's not wake her up, let's go."
Afterwards, Bo Jingcheng closed the door and took Bo Xuan to bed.
The next morning, Jiang Xinyue got up early and dressed up carefully.
She wore a simple and neat business suit, and put on light makeup, making her look elegant and confident.
Bo Jingcheng was somewhat surprised to see her like this when he came downstairs. Since Jiang Xinyue became a full-time housewife, she rarely dressed up, let alone put on makeup.
So when Bo Jingcheng saw Jiang Xinyue dressed like this, he subconsciously asked, "Xinyue, are you... going out today?"
Jiang Xinyue glanced at him and said calmly, "Yes, I've submitted my resume to several companies, and I have an interview today."
Bo Jingcheng frowned slightly: "Why are you still thinking about finding a job? The family doesn't need your income. Besides, it's not like I can't support you. How can my wife, Bo Jingcheng's wife, go out and show her face in public?"
Jiang Xinyue sneered inwardly, but remained outwardly calm, saying, "I don't want to be idle all day. Besides, I have my own dreams and pursuits. Moreover, a woman should have her own career; relying on yourself is worse than relying on anyone else."
At this point, Jiang Xinyue paused, then smiled and said, "Honey, don't you think so?"
Upon hearing this, Bo Jingcheng's expression stiffened. He hadn't expected Jiang Xinyue to say that; she was indeed somewhat different from before.
After Jiang Xinyue finished speaking, she stopped looking at Bo Jingcheng, picked up her bag, and walked straight out of the house.
As Bo Jingcheng watched her retreating figure, a strange unease welled up in his heart.
Jiang Xinyue drove to the ground floor of Shengshi Group. Looking at the tall building in front of her, the two huge characters "Shengshi" on the top of the building were particularly eye-catching.
It is said that in the world of the novel, Shengshi Group is one of the top three companies in the country, with branches in major cities.
The headquarters of Shengshi Group is located in Haicheng.
This building in Beicheng is one of the branches of Shengshi Group, and also its largest branch.
The boss behind the Shengshi Group is extremely mysterious; even the novel only mentions him briefly.
Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath and walked into the Shengshi Group building with firm steps.
She approached the front desk, politely explained that she was there for an interview, and gave her name.
The receptionist smiled and directed her to the meeting room to wait.
In the conference room, there were already several other people who had come for interviews, and they all looked nervous.
"What should I do? I'm so nervous!"
"I heard that Mr. Fu is personally overseeing today's interviews, which makes me even more nervous."
"Huh? Then I definitely have no chance. Mr. Fu is such a strict person. With my level, he definitely won't be interested."
"Since we're already here, we might as well give it a try!"
Upon hearing them refer to him as "President Fu," Jiang Xinyue looked puzzled. Why did he seem so familiar?
Wait a minute, could this CEO Fu of Shengshi Group be the cannon fodder third male lead in the novel?
It is said that this Fu Heng was Bo Jingcheng's distant uncle, and he died in a car accident quite early in the novel.
According to the timeline of the novel's world, Fu Heng should have died long ago, and would not have become the president of Shengshi Group.
As Jiang Xinyue was pondering to herself, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open.
A tall, aloof man walked in, followed by a group of people.
He was dressed in a well-tailored black suit, his handsome face showing a hint of seriousness; he was none other than Fu Heng, the character who died young in the novel.
Jiang Xinyue was startled; it seemed that the development of this world had deviated from the original trajectory of the novel.
Fu Heng's gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Jiang Xinyue, where it lingered for a moment.
Jiang Xinyue was slightly taken aback. She met his gaze for a moment, then quickly lowered her head, silently praying that she wouldn't attract his attention.
The interview began, with Fu Heng sitting in the main seat, and the interviewers around him asking questions to the applicant in turn.
When it was Jiang Xinyue's turn, she took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and began to introduce her design concept and past works in an orderly manner.
Fu Heng listened quietly, his gaze fixed intently on Jiang Xinyue, a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
After Jiang Xinyue finished presenting her design work, Fu Heng frowned slightly, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and asked, "While your works are technically proficient, they seem to lack a unique soul. What do you think?"
Jiang Xinyue's heart tightened, but she quickly calmed down and replied with a smile, "President Fu, I believe that design is not just a display of skills, but also an expression of emotions and ideas. My previous works were mostly based on current trends and client needs. But I believe that by joining such an excellent platform as Shengshi Group, I will be exposed to more diverse ideas and cultures, thereby uncovering a deeper and more unique design soul."
Upon hearing this, Fu Heng's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible hint of approval, and he nodded: "A good answer."
The interviewer then asked several professional questions, which Jiang Xinyue answered fluently.
After the interview, Jiang Xinyue felt that she had performed reasonably well, but she was still unsure whether she would pass the interview.
She was waiting for the results in the company's break room when a girl in business attire walked over, sat down next to her, and said with a smile, "You did a great job just now. I think you have a good chance."
Jiang Xinyue smiled politely: "Thank you. Actually, I'm quite nervous too. I hope it will have a good result."
After chatting for a while, the girl told Jiang Xinyue that her name was Lin Yue and that she was also there for an interview.
