There are ten minutes left before the interview begins.
To perk herself up, Jiang Nian went downstairs to a nearby convenience store and bought a bottle of Red Bull.
Just as I finished paying, someone hurriedly pushed open the glass door of the convenience store and went straight to the counter.
"Hello, could you please get me a sausage?"
"If you have any meat buns, please get one for me too, thank you!"
The young man's voice was filled with anxiety.
Jiang Nian, holding her coffee, glanced over instinctively.
The speaker was a girl who looked to be in her early twenties. She was wearing a light green floral dress and had a slender, petite figure.
She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she had a delicate, pleasing appearance that was easy on the eyes; she was the kind of person whose beauty grew on you.
Ham sausage and meat buns, dinner?
Jiang Nian didn't know why this girl was in such a hurry to buy dinner.
But no sooner had the girl rushed into the store than a man followed her in.
His face was full of disappointment and frustration.
Ignoring the other people around, she asked urgently, "Chen Chuchu, are you crazy?"
"The interview for the MISS spokesperson will begin in a few minutes."
"Instead of preparing for this time, you actually came here to buy food for a stray dog?"
The girl's tone was almost pleading: "Brother Lin, if it were just an ordinary stray dog, I wouldn't be here to buy food at this time."
"But as you can see, there's an arrow stuck in the dog's head... it was shot there by someone."
"With that arrow in there, the dog can't lower its head to eat or drink. If it doesn't receive timely treatment, the dog will die very quickly from that wound."
"It's so afraid of people, I can't get close to it at all. Maybe if I lure it over with something like a sausage or a meat bun, it'll come over..."
Upon hearing this, Brother Lin became even more enraged: "It came over, and then what?"
"Are you going to take it to the vet? Do you still need to go to the job interview?"
The girl choked and couldn't speak.
Brother Lin took a deep breath: "Do you know that with your current status, you simply can't reach the resources of a large group like Qinglan?"
"I used so many connections to get you this interview opportunity."
"MISS is a brand that is backed by Qinglan Group and is highly anticipated. If you can get its endorsement, your status and commercial resources will skyrocket, saving you several years of hard work."
"And what about you? You actually value a stray dog you see on the street more than a job interview. Look at all those people who see that dog on the street, does anyone even care about it?"
The girl paused for a moment.
He lowered his hands listlessly and whispered, "Is it right to ignore things just because nobody else does?"
“I’m not overflowing with compassion, nor am I trying to save all stray dogs. I just saw it… I just saw it.”
She was indeed just passing by.
But she couldn't turn a blind eye to a desperate, helpless life waiting to be saved.
Lin was speechless, and angrily waved his hand, saying, "...Forget it!"
"Anyway, with Ji Yuwei and Ming Xin around, your chances of being selected are slim. Do whatever you want!"
Just as the atmosphere was getting tense, Jiang Nian suddenly spoke up.
Where is that dog?
The girl and that Brother Lin both looked over.
Only then did he notice the high school-aged girl next to him.
When Brother Lin saw Jiang Nian's face, he was immediately struck by her beauty.
Is this... an amateur?
It's unbelievable that an ordinary person could look like this.
Chen Chuchu's eyes widened: "Little sister, you mean..."
"Don't you have an important interview? I'll go find that dog and have someone take it to the vet for treatment."
Jiang Nian took out her phone and glanced at the other person.
"If you're worried, add me on WeChat, and I'll send you the photos later."
Chen Chuchu's eyes lit up, and her tone became excited.
"Really? Thank you so much. The dog is on the lawn across the street."
“Little sister, are you still in school? Here’s what you’d like, could you take my dog to the vet for me? I’ll cover all the expenses, and I’ll give you an extra thousand yuan as a tip.”
"I'll contact you as soon as I finish work, okay? I'll adopt the dog later."
"No need for money," Jiang Nian straightened up. "Go and do your thing."
Hearing this, the girl finally felt relieved.
He hurriedly ran out of the convenience store and into the Qinglan Group building.
Even if she moves quickly, she will most likely be late by the time she gets upstairs.
I wonder if this will leave a bad first impression on the manager of MISS.
Seeing that the other party had left, Jiang Nian sent a text message to Shen Qinglan.
The interview is delayed by fifteen minutes; I'll be going up later.
We arrived at the location the girl had mentioned.
There was indeed a stray dog lying on the lawn, looking quite weak.
The dog wasn't very big; it was a small mixed-breed dog. Its fur was so dirty and matted together that its original color was almost unrecognizable.
What's truly horrifying is that an arrow is lodged in the dog's head, the entire arrowhead embedded in its skull. It's unimaginable what kind of twisted and cruel person would treat it this way.
That's terrible.
No wonder that girl would rather miss her interview than convince herself to ignore it.
Jiang Nian took a deep breath.
A few minutes later, a veterinarian from the nearest pet hospital arrived.
If he hadn't received the money transfer directly, the doctor wouldn't have believed that someone would offer him 10,000 yuan to come and rescue a stray dog immediately.
The girl left only the words, "If you treat it well, I will double the medical and examination fees and transfer them to your account," before turning and leaving.
