Chapter 52 Study Hard
Li Qingqing subconsciously shrank her neck. She felt that the person in front of her might not be easy to get along with.
After they sat down again, Li Qingqing realized that this seemed to be a dessert shop, which looked like it had just been renovated.
To be honest, she still didn't know what her interview was about. Shen Lu said she was suitable for the job, and she actually believed her.
"Did Chen Lu tell you what we do?" Wei Qingming asked, looking at Li Qingqing.
"That's really not the case..." Li Qingqing answered truthfully.
She felt that she was a little careless and should not have listened to Shen Lu. How could an interviewee come for an interview without knowing the content of the interview? Li Qingqing's heart was beating fast at this time.
Wei Qingming smiled softly and said, "It's okay. Today isn't actually an interview. The real interview will be tomorrow. Just show your abilities and prove yourself then. Today is just a preview of what the interview will be about."
Strength? Prove yourself? Li Qingqing thought about it and realized that she didn't have any special abilities. Her cheeks felt a little hot unconsciously.
Wei Qingming continued, "As you can probably tell, we're a dessert shop, but our desserts are quite unique. We use traditional Chinese medicine as a foundation for our desserts. This isn't exactly innovative, as some people have been doing this for a long time. However, there aren't many traditional Chinese medicine dessert shops on the market right now, so I think there's still a lot of room for us to tap into."
Having said that, she glanced at Li Qingqing, as if waiting for her to express her own opinions.
Li Qingqing couldn't help rubbing her hands under the table. She always liked to do this when she was nervous or a little embarrassed.
She glanced at Shen Lu, who smiled at her, and her expression seemed even more confident than her, the interviewee.
The fact is that Li Qingqing does have some research on Chinese herbal desserts, but her own strength has never been verified by the market, so she doesn't know how strong she is. In the past, she often made them for Shen Lu and several roommates.
“…I may not know much about the market, but I do know how to make Chinese herbal desserts. However, I can’t guarantee how well they’ll turn out…”
When talking about her own strength, Li Qingqing began to feel a little guilty. This kind of guilt is common among college students who have just entered society, because they are unfamiliar with society and always feel that it is an adult world.
In that world, there will be many powerful people, powerful things, and powerful rules, which are things that college students have not experienced. As the saying goes, the source of fear is the unknown. When they really enter the society three to five years later, they will find that this society is just a makeshift team, and those adults are just children in disguise.
Wei Qingming went straight to the point, "Then make a few and see for yourself. You're not the only one interviewing, so the winner will be determined by your own abilities. Of course, the remuneration won't be low, as there are relatively few Chinese medicine dessert chefs on the market right now. Scarcity makes things valuable. I hope we can have the opportunity to work together in the future."
"Oh, by the way. I will reimburse the cost of the materials for the desserts for the interview, just go ahead and make them." Wei Qingming added, then gave her a very official smile.
The entire interview process was very quick. Li Qingqing needed to prepare three desserts as required before 5 pm tomorrow. Then she would come to Qingjian Pavilion to compete with the three other subjects. Wei Qingming would be the referee, and whether they could pass or not depended entirely on his subjective judgment.
After coming out, Shen Lu took Li Qingqing's arm and did not ask her how she felt about the interview. Instead, he asked her: "Do you think Wei Qingming is handsome?"
Seeing her infatuated look, Li Qingqing teased her, "You like this one? Isn't he your brother's friend? Ask your brother to introduce him to you. You can get the upper hand by being close to him."
Shen Lu said shyly, "My brother, that dictator, wishes I would find a boyfriend when I am thirty. He will not take the initiative to introduce me to someone."
Li Qingqing: "I don't have a brother, so I don't understand the relationship between siblings, but if you ask me to introduce a girlfriend to my brother, I would be happy to do so."
"Isn't your brother only twelve years old? You want to introduce him to a girl at such a young age? Haha." Shen Lu looked at her with a sneer.
"What? Of course I mean when he grows up." Li Qingqing tapped her forehead.
Shen Lu returned to his serious demeanor, “Oh, by the way, did you have a date with Mr. Lu today on Chinese Valentine’s Day?”
Mentioning Lu Yan and the date, Li Qingqing recalled the blushing and heart-pounding scenes at the Coral Research Institute. She subconsciously touched her neck. Shen Lu has always had a sharp eye, and she wondered if she had noticed the kiss mark on her neck.
Shen Lu saw her blushing and the way she touched her neck, his eyes widened and he said loudly: "Okay, you two shameless people, you're doing it in broad daylight! How horny are you? Is Mr. Lu really that powerful? Tell me about it quickly."
Li Qingqing quickly covered her mouth and looked around with her eyes wide open. Fortunately, there were not many people on the road, otherwise she would have died again.
"Lulu, could you please keep your voice down? Someone might hear us."
Shen Lu finally realized and nodded, "Then tell me quickly." Shen Lu lowered his voice.
Li Qingqing ignored her and walked forward quickly. Shen Lu chased after her, "Hey, why are you running? Tell me quickly."
Li Qingqing turned around and whispered, "I'll tell you after I pass the interview." Then she ran away quickly.
…
After returning to Wanhua Apartment in the evening, Li Qingqing started to search the Internet for information about Chinese medicine desserts. After gaining a general understanding of some market products and demands, Li Qingqing began to think about her own dessert recipe.
In the evening, she bought some ingredients and tried to make a few recipes. She tried them herself first. She originally wanted to ask Shen Lu to help her taste them, but when she thought that she would ask her about the details of her date with Lu Yan, she didn't dare to let her come.
After working all night, it was almost twelve o'clock before she knew it. Li Qingqing cleaned up the kitchen and went to wash up and get ready for bed. After all, tomorrow would be the real competition, and she had to conserve enough energy to be in better condition.
After taking a shower, Li Qingqing picked up her phone and found that Lu Yan had sent her a message. She clicked it and saw that it was a website link.
When Li Qingqing was curious about what Lu Yan sent her, Lu Yan sent another message.
[Don't be idle these few days, study hard and come back to check the results.]
What should we study? What should we study? What results should we examine?
Li Qingqing was confused, but then, driven by curiosity, she clicked on the link.
The next second she threw her phone away as if she had been electrocuted.
