They are not short of money and do not need to use this to amass wealth. Neither of them are the type to spend money extravagantly. For them, enough money is sufficient.
...
Qian Xiao looked at the hurried figure ahead and wondered why it looked so familiar. There was even a hint of something sneaky about it. She shook her head. This was the factory; it wasn't normal to see someone whose back looked familiar on the street.
Why is she being so paranoid? She quickly ran to the bathroom. Tomorrow is a holiday, and she plans to go back to see her grandparents and her second and third uncles. She wonders how their studies are going, as the recruitment assessment will begin next Wednesday.
Someone patted her on the shoulder, and Qian Xiao turned around sharply. Luckily, she had good self-control and almost threw the person over her shoulder.
Guan Yu jumped back and patted her chest: "My god, you scared me!"
Qian Xiao rolled her eyes without any politeness. "Get this straight, you were the one who suddenly launched the attack, and you're the one who scared yourself. Shouldn't I be the one saying that?"
"Hehe, I was just trying to scare you, but I ended up scaring myself. Why are you running away?"
"That's a question. Is there anything else in this direction?"
"Oh my, what a coincidence, we're going to the same place."
Guan Yu blurted out, "Hurry up, I really couldn't hold it in anymore before I came out. The toilet is too far from where I am."
"You're really something, not even eager to go to the toilet?"
"If you change the word 'toilet' to 'canteen,' I'll be very enthusiastic. Have you decided on a time for Wednesday yet?" At this point, everyone knew there was a recruitment assessment, so it didn't matter if it got out.
"It seems to be scheduled for eight o'clock, and the notice will probably be posted on Tuesday." In internal recruitment cases like this, the notices are usually posted for a short while and then taken down. We can't let outsiders see them and cause trouble.
There aren't enough spots even within their own machinery factory.
"We're off tomorrow, want to go out for a walk?"
"No, I'm going back to the village to see my grandparents tomorrow. Maybe next time."
Guan Yu rolled her eyes: "I've said 'next time' so many times, but you always come home to visit during your holidays."
"How about you come to my house for dinner next time you have a day off? I live alone."
They're all girlfriends, so they like to get together when they have free time to chat and go shopping. She can't always be a loner, can she?
Guan Yu refused without even thinking: "That won't do. Who invites people to dinner these days? Let's talk about it later. Besides, you don't like shopping. What's the point of staying at home all day?"
Qian Xiao shrugged: "The problem is I don't have anything to buy. What's the point of going shopping if I don't buy anything? How about we go see a movie together next time there's one?"
"Okay, let me see if I can find any movie tickets. If I can, I'll take a few, and the four of us can go together."
After introducing herself in the cafeteria for the first time, Qian Xiao would sometimes run into the three girls, and they would always get together to chat, gradually becoming familiar with each other.
There were other girls of that age in the factory, but they didn't click. After a few words, they would just nod and greet each other when they met again. Qian Xiao was never particular about making friends and never forced anything. She had lived a good life on her own for four years of college.
The two of them came out of the toilet and shook their clothes vigorously; the smell was unbearable.
Guan Yu looked around and leaned closer to Qian with a smile: "Have you heard?"
Qian Xiao almost burst out laughing. Every time these girls gossiped, they would start with the same question: "What's up? Any new news?"
"I heard Jiang Siyu found a boyfriend from that grove. I've seen them talking secretly several times. He's not even that good-looking. Why did she lower her standards?"
Didn't this guy always string together several women before moving on to find someone better? Why is he suddenly so devoted this time?
Qian Xiao's eyes darted around and she sensed something was off: "What kind of person is he?" Judging from his tone, he didn't seem like a good person.
"Well, she's not as good as those guys who used to be around her. That person's head is really small, it doesn't seem to match her body at all. Her features are small too, it's not pleasant to look at. I remember this person was from the security department."
"By the way, why are the security guards working behind the grove? Are they patrolling? Aren't those our factory's R&D staff over there? They're not that impressive, and they don't have any new products. Why would the security department send people there to patrol?"
For some reason, Qian Xiao suddenly had an image of Little Head Dad in her mind. The problem is, Little Head Dad isn't ugly at all. Just listen to Guan Yu's tone, it's as if that person is really ugly.
To prevent Guan Yu from overthinking, Qian Xiao decisively changed the subject: "What about those from before? I think there are a few quite good ones, with regular features and not short. I heard they were all permanent employees."
"That's true. To be honest, Jiang Siyu isn't a great person, but she has good taste. The people she dated before were all alright. I don't know what she was thinking this time and she picked someone unremarkable. It seems like she doesn't have any relatives working in our factory."
If he were the child of some leader, it would be understandable. We don't care about the person himself, but it's also understandable if we care about his qualifications. The problem is that this person is really unremarkable. He looks rather strange, and he's not related to any leader. He doesn't stand out in any way.
The key issue is that this person's personality seems very strange, and the way they look at people makes people uncomfortable.
Qian Xiao frowned slightly. This was probably a case of ulterior motives; it seemed like they were targeting Sun Kaicheng. Should she remind Sun Kaicheng to be careful of the people around him when she got home that night?
Would this person be so heartless as to drug Sun Kaicheng or something? Like, forcing him into marriage, and then clinging to Sun Kaicheng? If someone were to catch them having any intimate relations at this point, it wouldn't be so easy to just let things go.
"What are you thinking? Did you hear everything I said?"
"Ah! I heard that. Who knows what she's thinking? I just don't understand. She has a job and can support herself, so why is she in such a hurry to find a partner?"
"She's reached a certain age. She's already twenty, of course she's anxious. If she doesn't find someone soon, she'll be an old maid."
"I reckon it's because you exposed her hypocritical face last time that those who fawned over her saw her true colors, and she's just grasping at straws in her desperation."
"No, if we can't find a suitable one in our factory, we can look elsewhere. Why does it have to be from the machine factory?"
"Who knows what she's thinking? Her ideas are different from ours. No matter what you say, she seems not to understand."
"By the way, you'll be twenty by the New Year, right? Aren't your family worried?"
