Uncle Wang nodded, standing there in his apron, and said to Ye Wenyu, "This matter is all over S City now, we all know about it. I heard that if Cai Wenchuan marries that Lin family's eldest daughter, then the current president of Lin's Group, Lin Tingfeng, will be in danger."
Ye Wenyu nodded, realizing that the rumors circulating were largely true. Thinking of the pressure Lin Tingfeng was facing at this moment, her heart also grew heavy.
When a person is under extreme pressure and coercion, they will rebound. So in his previous life, he began to take revenge in a frenzy at the end.
Zhang Susu waved to her husband and said, "Oh, let's not talk about these gossips anymore. Lao Wang, go cook. My daughter and I need to have a heart-to-heart talk."
Uncle Wang smiled and obediently turned and went back to the kitchen. Soon, the sounds of frying and cooking came from the kitchen, and the aroma of food filled the room like a light veil.
Ye Wenyu took a deep sniff and said to her mother, "Mom, you have such good taste! Uncle Wang is such a good family man." She then gave him a thumbs up.
Zhang Susu gently nudged her daughter and said smugly, "Of course! I was fooled by your dad once, but does that mean I'll be fooled by men my whole life? Learn from my mistakes."
Ye Wenyu chuckled.
Zhang Susu, wanting to tease her daughter, asked Ye Wenyu, "Daughter, let me ask you, you've graduated from university, have you found a job yet?"
Hearing her mother's question, Ye Wenyu panicked and was speechless for a moment. She thought to herself that in this life, her mother was living a happy life, her stepfather was also in good spirits, and everyone was doing well. There was no reason for her to be listless, but she couldn't tell the truth: she had neither found a job nor taken the postgraduate entrance exam.
Left with no other choice, she could only smile and blink her big eyes, saying, "Mom, after thinking it over, I think it's better to take the civil service exam. I'm already preparing for it, and the results will be out in a few months. Then I'll be a government employee, and I'll have a secure job."
She thought her mother would be disappointed and angry if she said that, but to her surprise, Zhang Susu laughed happily.
Uncle Wang strode out of the kitchen again. Mother and Uncle Wang exchanged a glance and both smiled happily. Zhang Susu clapped her hands and said to Ye Wenyu happily, "You're right to think that way, that's great, child, Mom supports you! That's right, no job outside is as good as taking the civil service exam. You'll have status and position, and you'll be able to find a good husband in the future. My child is so smart, and you're so sensible, I'm at ease."
Uncle Wang rubbed his hands together happily and said, "When you pass the civil service exam, your mother and I will be very proud. We'll tell your two younger brothers to follow your example and take the civil service exam after graduating from university."
Ye Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief and wiped her sweat. She thought to herself that she had only answered the questions randomly when she originally planned to take the civil service exam, but now it seemed that she had no choice but to take it.
For everyone to be happy in this life, she must pull herself together. So, first of all, she has to solve the problem of finding a job, because only when a person takes care of himself can he take care of others.
With this in mind, after returning from her mother's house, Ye Wenyu began preparing for the civil service exam. She searched the official website of City S to find out which positions were recruiting civil servants and when the exams were held. Then she bought exam materials and began studying day and night.
There was a court position, and the exam started two months later. She had to study twice as hard as others to have any chance of passing. She heard that the civil service exam was extremely competitive, with thousands of people vying for a single spot, even more so than the college entrance exam back then.
From then on, Ye Wenyu began preparing for the civil service exam, studying late into the night every day. She studied so hard that her head was tied to the ceiling and her thigh was pierced with an awl. Her classmates left school, but she was still living in her old dormitory, becoming a fifth-year student. However, she believed that soon she would pass the civil service exam and leave this place to start a new life.
Soon, a month passed as Ye Wenyu studied day and night for the civil service exam. One day, while she was studying in the library, her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a call from Lin Tingfeng.
They haven't been in touch for a long time.
The reason they haven't been in contact is probably that she's busy preparing for the civil service exam, and he's busy handling the affairs of the Lin Group.
Ye Wenyu answered the phone, and Lin Tingfeng's gentle voice came through: "So, are you still keeping your word?"
Ye Wenyu suddenly remembered that a month had passed, and today should be the day Lin Tingfeng would give the diagnosis results.
She had promised Lin Tingfeng that she would accompany him to the hospital to get the test results, and she immediately said, "It's a promise, of course it's a promise!"
Lin Tingfeng laughed and gently asked her, "Do you remember what it was about?"
"Of course I remember, I went to the hospital to get the test results."
She answered accurately, her face full of embarrassment, though Lin Tingfeng couldn't see it on the other end of the phone.
Lin Tingfeng chuckled softly again and said to her, "We haven't been in touch for a month. I thought you'd forgotten." Hmm, why does his tone sound a little resentful?
Ye Wenyu blushed and said to him, "Then I'll be right there."
Lin Tingfeng said, "No need, I'll come pick you up from your school."
Ye Wenyu agreed.
Half an hour later, Lin Tingfeng drove his Mercedes-Benz to the gate of her school. The sunlight shone on his car like shattered silver.
The wind blew through the treetops like silver bells, and Lin Tingfeng could hear the sound of the wind.
Ye Wenyu stepped forward, her small face flushed.
Lin Tingfeng got out of the car and gentlemanly opened the car door for her. Ye Wenyu apologized to him, saying, "I'm sorry, I forgot. I'm really sorry."
Lin Tingfeng smiled and got into the car, restarting the engine. Ye Wenyu sat in the passenger seat, looking as if she were drunk, her face flushed.
As Lin Tingfeng drove, he said to her, "You don't need to apologize. I'm already very touched that you're willing to come with me to get the results."
He looked at her tenderly, his heart overflowing with joy. As long as she was by his side, he felt an indescribable happiness.
Ye Wenyu was taken aback, then blushed and explained to him, "It's because I graduated from university but couldn't find a job, and I didn't get into graduate school. My family's situation is just average. I want to try my best to get good results in the civil service exam in two months and become a civil servant, so I've been preparing for the exam and haven't been able to contact you because I've been busy."
I see!
Lin Tingfeng smiled. He had been in business all his life and was somewhat tired of the business world. He had thought that if his children asked him what career to choose in the future, he would not want them to go into business. Taking the civil service exam would be a good choice, as it would be stable and comfortable.
