(three hundred and fifty-eight)
After a day of work, Ye Wenyu returned to the girls' dormitory, feeling as if all her bones were about to fall apart. She saw that the dormitory supervisor was still playing on her phone and ignoring her, just like before. She also remembered that the principal no longer offered her any help, and Lin Tingfeng had vanished as if he had evaporated into thin air. She was once again left alone and desolate.
Compared to the previous fiery enthusiasm, it's now as cold as ice.
She was filled with mixed feelings. Actually, if she were smart, being with Lin Tingfeng would be a good thing. Some women are very smart and know that they can make their lives incredibly easy and successful by relying on men. But why can't she do it?
Thinking of this, she was horrified, because of her past life! Because in her past life, she thought she was being smart to choose to be with Lin Tingfeng, but ended up falling into immense emptiness and self-blame and remorse, and finally chose to commit suicide.
So being with Lin Tingfeng may seem easy and comfortable, but it's not actually the right path in life.
Why couldn't she and Lin Tingfeng have a happy ending? Perhaps it was because her soul, yearning for self-respect and freedom, was crying out within the golden shackles. Only after being imprisoned for so long could she finally break free.
Although my life is just average now, compared to the boundless emptiness and deep-seated self-hatred of my previous life, I am much healthier and more normal now.
Relying on mountains will lead to their collapse, and relying on people will lead to their departure. Only by relying on oneself can one live a truly secure and happy life.
With this in mind, Ye Wenyu cheered herself up and went back to work. To avoid overthinking, she planned to take on several part-time jobs to fill her winter break, so she wouldn't have time to think about the incident.
As the weather gradually warms up, sunny days become the dominant phenomenon, signifying the end of the snowy season.
However, perhaps because there were too many people looking for jobs after the New Year, I spent the whole day submitting resumes at the job fair, but came up empty-handed and returned to the girls' dormitory.
Feeling a bit down, Ye Wenyu's phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was an unfamiliar number. Thinking that perhaps her resume had worked, she immediately answered the phone. The other person asked warmly, "Is this Ye Wenyu?"
A crescent moon shines outside the window, its light as clear as water.
Ye Wenyu replied that the other party introduced herself as working for a foreign trade company that needed to hire translators, and that she had seen Ye Wenyu's resume and asked if she was interested in the job.
Ye Wenyu immediately replied, "Of course I'm interested!" Her heart pounded with excitement, and she even smiled slightly at the moon peeking at her from outside the window. But it was strange; she didn't seem to have submitted a resume for a translation position before.
The other person smiled and said gently to her, "Our job doesn't require you to be in the office regularly. You just need to submit your manuscript every month. The monthly salary is four thousand. Would you like to do that?"
My God, you can actually earn four thousand a month from a part-time job?!
Ye Wenyu was stunned. She thought it was like a pie falling from the sky. How could there be such a good thing? Not only did she not have to work regular hours, but she also had such a high salary every month. Was it possible?
The moon outside the window shone even brighter, as if it were smiling gently at her.
Has her life turned around? Has her hardship finally given way to happiness and things starting to go smoothly?
The other party was waiting for her reply, and she immediately said, "Yes, yes, very much so!"
Happiness came too quickly, and her heart was pounding so hard it was almost unbearable. Ye Wenyu reached out a hand and pressed it against her heaving chest.
The other party told her the time and place to meet. The next day, Ye Wenyu went to the agreed place. At first, she thought it was a scam, but when she arrived at the agreed place, she saw that it was a very formal foreign trade company and couldn't help but feel lucky.
She was as happy as a gleeful little animal, and her face was beaming throughout the entire interview.
She was greeted by a beautiful woman who gave her a deep look, handed her a thin document, and smiled gently, "This is your work schedule for the first month. You don't need to come to the company. Just translate it by the end of the month and send the electronic version to my email. Your salary will be paid on the 10th of each month. Is that alright?"
"Great!" Ye Wenyu said repeatedly. She took the manuscript to be translated from her hand and glanced at it. The manuscript was very simple and not thick at all, not even as thick as a book. She wondered if she had turned her luck around and could earn four thousand yuan a month by translating it.
Actually, if the company wants to save costs, it can just use Google Translate and then have a professional proofread it. Is the company's boss just stupid and rich?
But who cares? She really needed this job, so Ye Wenyu skipped and hopped all the way back to school with a smile on her face.
She thought to herself that with an extra four thousand yuan each month, and because it wouldn't take up her time or require her to go to work, she could finish the translation in her dormitory late at night without affecting her other part-time jobs. Therefore, she could quickly pay back the hospital fees she owed Lin Tingfeng! Once she paid off the hospital fees, she could save up some money for herself, then learn about investment and financial management, invest in funds regularly, and eventually buy a car and a house. She believed that her life would become increasingly smooth.
Ye Wenyu finally smiled happily. Looking at the bright sunshine outside, she thought to herself, "Now that I've resolved all the messy and troublesome things that happened before and after the New Year, it seems my life is finally going to become easier and smoother."
This is wonderful!
Ye Wenyu got a translation job with a monthly salary of four thousand yuan, and started working with great enthusiasm every day. The happy days passed quickly, and one day after another, the Lantern Festival arrived. After the Lantern Festival, school started again.
However, Ye Wenyu still spent the Lantern Festival alone, but she didn't mind, as she was used to it anyway.
Lin Tingfeng didn't appear, Jiang Zhiming didn't appear, and Cai Wenchuan didn't appear either. Very good, very good. Her life finally belongs entirely to herself. She can finally relax.
On the evening of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, she returned to the girls' dormitory and was working on translation at her desk when her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was an unknown number. Thinking that someone might be offering her another job opportunity, she answered the call.
"Xiaoyu, are you free tomorrow?" A warm and loving voice asked.
Ye Wenyu was stunned, wondering who this person was? Why did she feel like she heard the voice somewhere? She searched her memory hard, but couldn't remember for a moment.
The other person seemed to know her situation and immediately introduced herself: "Xiaoyu, I am Aunt Cai."
Aunt Cai, Cai Wenchuan's mother?! Yes, Ye Wenyu suddenly remembered that on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, when Lin Tingyue was in a car accident, she had met Aunt Cai and Uncle Cai again at the hospital. Later, when she left, Aunt Cai asked her for her phone number.
