No
Maybe it was because a friend of Lin Xinran's father greeted An Lan, or maybe people thought that the two interns could not help much, so Chen Jin and Lin Xinran spent a very relaxing month of internship and received the previous month's salary on the 2nd of December.
How should I put it? I feel a little complicated. She now receives 200 yuan in resettlement fees every month, which is equal to her internship salary. This month, her third uncle helped her collect rent and brought back almost five thousand yuan. The bank interest can be spread out to tens of thousands per month. It seems that this 200 yuan internship salary is very little.
But compared with people in other companies, regular employees may not even make 200 a month, which seems like a lot.
My third cousin Chen Yongfei finally got his driver's license and drove back a Xiali. I heard that Chen Jin received an internship salary of 200 yuan, so I said I would treat her to a buffet for 300 yuan per person to celebrate.
Chen Jin: “…”
Suddenly she felt that someone looked down on her work.
Not only my third cousin bought a car, but my eldest cousin and second cousin also bought new cars. Cars seemed to have become cabbages, and you could buy them just by asking for them.
As she wished, Chen Ting got a house near the Xicheng District Women and Children's Hospital. The house was not small, covering an area of 150 square meters. Chen Ting specially built a large cloakroom for it. Once the new house is renovated, it will only take her ten minutes to walk to and from get off work.
After all the houses allocated to her were transferred to her name, she called Chen Jin and said, "I have saved money to buy a car. If you are free someday, come out for dinner and I will treat you."
It's rare.
Of course Chen Jin wanted to take the opportunity to rip her off, so he immediately responded, "Okay, you're the busiest person, just let me know when you're going to take a break, and Jia Jia, Miao Miao and I will definitely come to support you!"
Although she said she would treat everyone, Chen Ting was very busy in the hospital, and sometimes she didn't have time to get together with everyone during holidays, so the treat became a distant possibility.
Chen Jin now lives a very regular life. On weekdays, he leaves home at 7:30 in the morning and gets home at 5:30 in the evening. On the way back, I stopped by the vegetable market to buy some vegetables, then went home to cook a delicious meal and ate while watching TV. Occasionally Chen Jia would come out from school to eat. At night, I would read for a while and think about how to write my paper.
By the end of December, she had finally finished the first draft of her thesis, but she still had to improve it several times, otherwise she was afraid that when she took the manuscript to school, it would be criticized by Professor Jiang.
The college's recruitment notice for counselors has not yet come out, but all the teachers in the Chinese Department know that she wants to apply to stay on campus as a counselor.
When I bought this small Western-style house, I was thinking about spending more time with Professor Shen so that I could leave a good impression on Professor Jiang. I hoped that he could help put in a good word for her regarding her graduation thesis and staying on campus after graduation. But she didn't have time to help.
Professor Song next door said to her: "If you work hard, it will leave a mark. Your teachers will see your attitude towards study."
Chen Jin was glad that even though she really didn't like this major, she was still very serious when studying.
"Chen Jin, your internship will end on the last day of January. You should think carefully about whether you want to stay and work after graduation." An Lan only asked Chen Jin about his future plans. She knew that Lin Xinran had decided to continue her postgraduate studies and it was impossible for her to stay and work in the company.
Chen Jin thought back to her internship of the previous two months and after seeing the working conditions of the regular employees, she felt that this job was not suitable for her. But he didn't reject Sister Lan immediately, "Then I'll think about it when I get back. Thank you, Sister Lan."
Lin Xinran went downstairs with her, "Do you really have to stay in school as a counselor?"
After learning that Chen Jin's car was worth two hundred thousand yuan and that she also owned a small western-style house in Nanjing University, Lin Xinran found it impossible to understand Chen Jin's thoughts. With so much money, why did she still come to work? She goes shopping for clothes every day!
"Not really. I think it's good to stay in school." But if she was asked what was good about it, Chen Jin couldn't say. She scratched her face and said, "I don't pursue much. I want to work in a company that won't go bankrupt, and it would be best if the company doesn't have complicated interpersonal relationships. It's boring to stay at home with nothing to do every day."
After all, the school is a familiar environment for her, and the people she interacts with most are college students.
To be honest, sometimes I feel confused when I have a lot of money.
But she couldn't say this to anyone, as she was afraid that someone would put her in a sack.
"Yes, people still have to go out and interact with others. Having a job can help them integrate with the outside society." Lin Xinran said.
Just as they walked out of the company gate, Lin Xinran was about to say goodbye to Chen Jin. When she saw the man jogging towards them from the right rear, she couldn't help but roll her eyes and urged Chen Jin to hurry up, "Jiang Pingyang must want to take your car. Run, run."
Without even turning his head, Chen Jin hurriedly said goodbye to Lin Xinran, trotted to the parking lot on the right, took the key, opened the door, got in the car, closed the door, and started the car. He completed the series of actions in one go, leaving a shadow of the car for the man waving at him from behind.
This is another reason why Chen Jin does not want to stay and work at Cheng Group. I don’t know who saw her driving a Santana to and from get off work and said she was a rich lady who came here to experience life. Some people came over to get close to her, and some even wanted to pursue her.
She explained many times that she was not a rich girl, but her Santana made others unable to believe it and told her that she didn't need to hide it.
She is really not a rich girl, she is just a nouveau riche from demolition work.
Other nouveau riche might be tempted by beauty, but Chen Jin kept his uncle's words in mind and would never just pick a man casually. My mind is full of thoughts: Want to share my money? No way!
During the New Year's Day holiday, Chen Jin went to Qiaoxi Village to check on the progress. She had no choice but to go because her uncle asked her to go and see the results herself. Her building is much larger than the other four. After the renovation is completed, the 400-square-meter land will be surrounded by a wall and become a small residential community. The entire first floor will be used as shops for rent.
"Chen Jin, are you here to see your grandfather again?"
Chen Jin turned around to see who the brainless guy was. Oh, it was her third uncle. She curled her lips in disdain and said, "I came here to see my building." Not to see the old man.
Uncle Liu walked around for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "Are you going to take possession of the resettlement housing you were allocated soon?"
"I don't know. No one has informed me yet." Chen Jin glanced at him cautiously. Could he be eyeing her resettlement houses?
These people really can’t get enough of their dreams. I don’t know what they are thinking. Is she the person who can take advantage of them?
"Hehe." Uncle Liu rubbed his hands, "I heard that you have a lot of houses. I want to ask if you would like to sell them?"
"Not for sale." Chen Jin refused.
Uncle Liu: “…” What did you want to say just now?
Ugh, he couldn't say anything anymore. This damn girl didn't even give him the chance to continue. She wanted to buy one or two houses from Chen Jin at a low price, but Chen Jin didn't accept it at all!
I wanted to continue talking, but Chen Jin turned around and walked to the other side.
Forget it, those resettlement houses are not that great, it’s better to buy a better one in the city center.
Uncle Liu San could only comfort himself in this way.
After New Year's Day, the first semester of the senior year was coming to an end. Chen Jin and Lin Xinran both took three days off. They had to go back to school to submit the first draft of their graduation thesis and to attend a class meeting.
The first draft of her paper barely passed, but still needed some revisions. Chen Lu's paper received the most severe criticism, and Professor Jiang asked her to go back and rewrite it. However, Yang Qian did not come because she is currently traveling abroad and cannot come back for the time being.
Originally, Chen Jin thought that she didn’t know what to do if she didn’t work, but now, she feels like she can go out and have fun! Forget about going abroad, as her English is very poor and she is afraid of being in an unfamiliar place, but she can still travel to some big cities in China.
After talking about the thesis, Professor Jiang asked them what they were doing recently.
Chen Lu has been working part-time recently, tutoring high school students.
After leaving the office, Chen Lu asked her how much her internship salary was. Chen Jin told her the truth. Chen Lu had a complicated expression and hesitated for a long time before asking, "Do you want to do tutoring as well? Although you are not working in a big company, you can make a lot of money."
Chen Jin thought of her previous experience of trying to tutor her cousin Chen Yongfei, and quickly waved her hand to refuse, "No, no, I'd better forget it. This internship is okay now."
She was afraid that while teaching he would get so angry that he would not be able to control himself and resort to violence. By then, the tuition fees won’t be enough to compensate me.
Chen Lu walked with her for a while and said, "It shouldn't be difficult for you to be a counselor. Although that person said you need connections, you don't have to be afraid if Professor Jiang speaks for you."
"Who? Li Xingyi's girlfriend said she used her connections to stop me from being a counselor? Did she tell someone else? Do you think she's out of her mind to dare to say something like that?"
Chen Lu sighed helplessly. Are we now concerned about whether other people have water in their brains? "She didn't say it herself. Song Jiajia came to our dormitory and told Qin Xuemei."
The sound was so loud that I was afraid they couldn't hear it.
"No wonder, let her say whatever she wants." Chen Jin sighed, "I've let it go. If I really can't be a counselor, then I won't be one. I'm a student of Nanjing University, how can I not find a job?"
Chen Lu: Isn’t it you who keeps talking about staying in school to be a counselor? Everyone thinks you are incompetent.
"Are you going back to the dorm?"
"No, I'm going home. I'm going this way. Bye."
Chen Lu walked for a while before she felt something was wrong. Why was Chen Jin walking towards the west gate on her way home?
Chen Jin felt that she should not have gone home today. She was so unlucky to meet those two crazy couple.
So, after saying goodbye to Chen Lu, she went out of the west gate, went to the newly opened cake shop, bought two small cakes, and walked in a "Z" shape, humming a little tune and swaying from side to side.
Then, outside her house, she saw Li Xingyi, his parents, his girlfriend Bai Ling, and another middle-aged couple, probably Bai Ling's parents.
Chen Jin frowned: What are these people doing standing at her door?
When they saw her appear, Li Xingyi and Bai Ling also frowned: Why is Chen Jin here?
At this time, Li Xingyi thought of the last time he saw Chen Jin driving a Santana at the school gate. He didn't pay attention to the license plate at that time. Now he found that there was a white Santana parked in front of this house. Could this be the home of one of Chen Jin’s relatives?
Li Xingyi's mother also saw Chen Jin, she knew Chen Jin. After all, Chen Jin and Li Xingyi were in the same class in high school, and Chen Jin had good grades. She had seen Chen Jin when she went to school to see Li Xingyi. Later, Li Xingyi told her that he was dating Chen Jin. She wanted to object at the time, but Li Xingyi refused to listen. It was not until last year that Li Xingyi felt that dating Chen Jin was no longer interesting, so she persuaded Li Xingyi to break up with Chen Jin and introduced her friend's daughter to him.
She didn't like Chen Jin and felt that Chen Jin was not worthy of her son, but she was not so narcissistic as to mistakenly think that she followed them here. All kinds of speculations ran through my mind. Could it be that Chen Jin knew someone here?
The small Western-style buildings here are almost all where the old professors of Nanjing University live. They came here this time to bring Li Xingyi and Bai Ling to visit their relatives who used to live here.
"Chen Jin, what are you doing following me?" Bai Ling glared at her.
"The road is not built by your family, I can go wherever I want." Chen Jin looked at Bai Ling's parents twice. These two people looked quite normal. He didn't understand how they could raise a fool like Bai Ling.
"Please move aside. You are blocking my door." Chen Jin waved his hand, "Go away quickly."
Li Xing looked at the small western-style building behind him, then at Chen Jin, "You said this is your home? Your uncle's home?"
"I told you that you had a problem with your ears and asked you to go to the hospital for a check-up, but you didn't believe me. I told you it was my home, but you insisted on saying it was my uncle's." Chen Jin almost wanted to laugh when she saw the impatient expressions on Li Xingyi's parents' faces who looked down on others. Why were they still pretending in front of her house?
"Go away, go away. If you keep blocking my door, I'll go to the security booth to find someone later."
"You said this is your home?" Bai Ling laughed contemptuously, "This is the home of Xingyi's cousin, whose surname is Shen. I'm afraid you are here to be a nanny? If you work here, this becomes your home?"
Chen Jin frowned, took out his phone and tapped the keys. After a while, the call was connected. Chen Jin asked straight to the point, "Professor Shen? This is Chen Jin. It's like this. A group of people are blocking my door. They said that this house belongs to their cousin. I want to ask if it's your relative. Did I go to the wrong place?"
"What's your last name? Li. Oh, no? So the people living here are brothers from your side branch? Then I know. Oh, it's okay, it's okay. A group of people blocked my door, and I thought they were your relatives."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Jin raised his eyebrows, "I just called Professor Shen and asked him about this building. It turns out that Professor Shen lent this building to his brothers from the side branch. Now, I have bought this building. I don't know where your relatives are. You can call and find out. Okay, stop blocking my door."
Chen Jin ignored the surprised, suspicious and inquiring looks of the group and took a step forward. Li's mother unconsciously moved aside. Chen Jin took out the key to open the door, then slammed it shut. He did the same when he reached the main door, completely blocking the family's sight.
She was just about to go upstairs to see the family's reaction when she suddenly heard Li's mother calling Professor Song. Chen Jin went to open the door of the main house again.
When he came out, he was holding a bottle of drink in his hand, and he put in a straw and drank while watching.
When Professor Song and the nanny came back from buying groceries, they suddenly saw several people standing in front of Chen Jin's house. They thought they were Chen Jin's relatives. Before she could say anything, someone came to greet her and said he was a relative from next door and they had met before.
But Professor Song has no impression of it, and she didn’t have much contact with her former neighbors next door.
"Are you here to see your relatives or Xiao Jin?" Professor Song looked up and saw Chen Jin opening the door and said to her, "Xiao Jin, is this your relative?"
Chen Jin said crisply: "No, it's a relative of the person who used to live in this building. Professor Shen said he doesn't know anyone."
At this time, Li's mother and Li Xingyi both looked at Chen Jin. Thinking of what Chen Jin had just said, they were a little uncertain. Could it be that this building was really bought by Chen Jin?
But that's impossible. Where did Chen Jin's family get the money to buy such an expensive house?
But now is not the time to dwell on these issues. They came here for a purpose.
Li Xingyi and Bai Ling were both admitted to graduate school as they wished and stayed in the school to pursue graduate studies. However, there are differences between graduate studies. Everyone wants to study under a promising mentor, but a mentor only has two or three places available, or even only one or two.
In order to allow Li Xingyi and Bai Ling to study under a good mentor, Li's mother thought of Professor Song, a neighbor of her aunt's cousin. Although Professor Song is a retired teacher of the Department of Physics of Nanjing University, her influence in the Department of Physics is not weak. Several professors at Nanjing University today are her students.
I don’t know what happened in her cousin’s family and why they moved away. Moreover, my cousin never mentioned this matter. She usually went out shopping and had afternoon tea with me, and she didn't show anything unusual.
Moreover, it turns out that this small Western-style building did not belong to my cousin's husband, but to his cousin's brother. They just lent it to them? !
Without my cousin here, there is no way to get close to her by using relationships.
But Mr. and Mrs. Li are business people. They said they thought their cousin was still living here and didn't know they had moved away. Changing the subject, he mentioned that his two children were students in the Department of Physics at Nanjing University, and both were admitted to graduate school at the same university. He thought that since he happened to be there, he might as well visit Professor Song and learn more about the research direction of physics.
Li Xingyi also stepped forward and said that he wanted to ask Professor Song some questions about his studies.
Professor Song was a kind-hearted person and she liked students who were studious and inquisitive. She thought that the students were visiting relatives and wanted to drop by for a visit, but she didn't guess that they were coming for her, so she asked the nanny to open the door and invite them in.
Professor Song also did not forget Chen Jin, and said to her: "Xiao Jin, come to my house for lunch at noon."
Chen Jin glanced at Li Xingyi and Bai Ling. The two of them looked at her with complicated expressions. She didn't want to sit at the same table with these people, so she said, "Professor Song, you have guests at your house, so I won't go over. I'll just eat at home."
Professor Song: "Okay, then don't start cooking. I'll ask Xiao He to bring you a meal later."
"Thank you, Professor Song. Now I can be lazy again today." Chen Jin thanked him with a smile, then turned around and went back home.
~
Li's mother and the other adults looked at each other, and finally only Li's mother and Bai's mother stayed to accompany Li Xingyi and Bai Ling to visit Professor Song's home. When they were about to take the gifts they brought, they were stopped by Professor Song, who told them to take them back, otherwise it would be inconvenient to keep the two students to exchange and study today.
The adults talked awkwardly, and Father Li and Father Bai took the things and left first.
When passing by Chen Jin's small building, Li's father subconsciously took another look. He had met Chen Jin and knew that his son had been dating her for more than two years, but they broke up in a not very decent way.
Just because of this incident, he also specifically criticized his wife and Li Xingyi. No matter whether others are rich or poor, powerful or not, you should be friendly and speak politely. Are you afraid that others will come close to you? This kind of commotion made them feel unreasonable.
I don’t know how this girl got so lucky that she actually bought a small Western-style house near Nanjing University, and she seems to have a good relationship with Professor Song. I have to ask Li Xingyi again when I get back, who is the background of his ex-girlfriend?
Li Xingyi and Bai Ling, who were visiting Professor Song's home, were both a little absent-minded, thinking about Chen Jin. Bai Ling couldn't help but ask Professor Song: "Did Chen Jin really buy the small western-style building next door?"
Professor Song was surprised, "You guys know Xiao Jin?"
Then he smiled and said, "She did buy the house. Her relatives rarely come over, so I just thought you were her relatives and came to visit her. Oh, by the way, did you and Xiao Jin meet at Nanjing University?"
Li Xingyi pulled the corner of his mouth uncomfortably, "Chen Jin and I were high school classmates."
"You are high school classmates, so you have known each other for many years." Professor Song was about to say that they could move around more often, but then he noticed that his expression was unnatural. Thinking that he and Chen Jin might not be familiar with each other, he did not mention it.
When Li's mother brought the two of them here, she had no intention of asking Professor Song directly to recommend a good tutor for them. That would be too obvious and would easily offend people. They just come here to make themselves known, and hopefully they’ll come more often in the future. Anyway, there is still more than half a year before the graduate school starts, so if we spend more time together, our relationship will become closer.
It was Chen Jin's appearance that made Li's mother think of another solution. After Li Xingyi and Bai Ling finished talking to Professor Song, she asked, "Both children will study at Nanjing University in the future. We wanted to buy them a house nearby, but we haven't found a suitable one. Professor Song, you know this area well. Do you know anyone who is willing to rent a house?"
"I really don't understand. You can ask my aunt later. She may know more."
Feeling embarrassed to stay for dinner, Li's mother and her friends left after sitting for less than an hour. When Bai Ling went out, he stared at Chen Jin's family next door for a long time, and then looked at Li Xingyi.
She hoped that the Li Xing family would prepare a small Western-style house for him.
In fact, the first thing Li Xing said after returning home was to tell his parents that he wanted to buy a small Western-style house in Nanjing University as his future wedding house.
However, as soon as he brought it up, his sister-in-law, who had been married for more than half a year, lowered her head to look at the fruit plate on the table.
Li's mother disagreed, "Let's talk about it later. I said I would buy you a house near Nanjing University, but you insisted on buying it in Rose Garden. You also changed your car to a new one... Besides, it's not easy to buy a small Western-style house in Nanjing University. Even if you have money, you may not have connections. I think it's better to buy a flat in the faculty and staff family area of Nanjing University first, and you can live there occasionally when you are in school."
Li Xingyi was not unfamiliar with the situation at home. It looked like a medium-sized company, but the company was started by his father and his father's brothers. His father held the majority of the shares, but he did not have the final say. After the company's profits were distributed, he had to continue investing. In fact, the family does not have a lot of available cash flow.
Besides, the family has already decided that most of the property will be given to the eldest brother, and he will just get a small dividend every year.
It was today when he saw Chen Jin and learned that she could actually afford the small Western-style house in Nanjing University. He felt that this was unreasonable and his rationality was somewhat out of control.
If it were in the past, it would be just a small Western-style house worth one million, and it would not be impossible to buy it. But the company is having some difficulties in operating now. There are many competing companies, which dilute their market share and they can earn less.
Otherwise, his family would not have deliberately brought him and Bai Ling together. Besides the fact that they were well matched and had similar ideals, the main reason was that the two companies wanted to cooperate and needed a strong bond.
but!
Why did Chen Jin suddenly become rich? Did her relatives get rich?
That's impossible. Even if her relatives become rich, they are still her relatives, not her biological parents.
He was just thinking about this question when his father asked, "What is the background of your female classmate? Is she really from the countryside? What kind of business does her family run?"
Li Xingyi also frowned at this moment. In fact, he only knew that Chen Jin's family lived in a rural area in the suburbs of Nancheng District. He knew that her family had a house for rent and an orchard, but he didn't know anything else. Is it true that growing fruit trees is profitable now? This is also unlikely.
Unless, Chen Jin wins the lottery! Otherwise, he really couldn't think of any other reason.
Chen Jin, who was frequently mentioned, sneezed several times at home and muttered, "Which lunatic scolded me?"
