The next day, Jiang Xin got up early and rummaged through a pile of clothes for a long time but couldn't find any clothes that suited her taste.
She understood the saying that clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse. On her first day at the new company, without an outfit that could command respect, how could she establish herself in the company?
At this moment, Jiang Xin misses her large apartment terribly, which is filled with countless designer bags and all the latest fashions of the season.
Unlike now, she can't even afford a decent set of clothes.
With a sense of loss, Jiang Xin began her new day.
Although the all-English contract wasn't difficult for Jiang Xin, the technical terms and various prices in the contract required her to be extra careful.
If she makes a mistake, it could cause the company a lot of losses, which she can't afford to pay right now.
By the time I finished a busy day's work, the streetlights were already on.
Jiang Xin had no time to appreciate the myriad lights of the city; Yan Ling was still at home waiting for her to come back and cook.
It was rush hour, and the subway was extremely crowded. Jiang Xin huddled close to the corner, her occasional furrowed brows revealing her impatience.
As she stepped out of the subway, she took a deep breath. The smell in the carriage was far from pleasant; sweat and various other odors filled her sense of smell.
Jiang Xin glanced at the time and hurried home without stopping.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yanling standing in the living room waiting for her. When he saw her return, he casually asked, "Why are you so late today?"
Jiang Xin's heart skipped a beat. She knew that the calmer Yan Ling's tone was, the angrier he was.
Jiang Xin put on a fawning smile, walked up to Yan Ling, and whispered, "I have a lot of work to do today. After all, it's my first day, and the boss wants to test my work ability."
Her humble attitude pleased Yanling, and he then turned his gaze to her and said, "Let's go, let's go to the supermarket to buy some food."
Jiang Xin happily took his arm and went to the supermarket with him, but when they arrived, Yan Ling took her directly to the special offer section.
Jiang Xin was somewhat resistant, but Yan Ling said in an unquestionable tone, "You need to learn how to live a normal life. That's how ordinary people are. Do you still want to be the eldest daughter of the Ye family?"
Jiang Xin fell silent under Yan Ling's questioning. She obediently pushed the shopping cart behind him and watched him choose their dinner from a pile of discounted items.
Jiang Xin looked at the man's back with eyes full of admiration, thinking to herself, "My God, Yanling is so amazing! He knows everything, is there anything he doesn't know?"
Then she thought of Ye Beichen. Jiang Xin felt that someone like Ye Beichen would definitely not know as much about these everyday common sense things as Yan Ling.
Enjoying Jiang Xin's admiring gaze, Yan Ling worked even harder to select items from among a group of elderly men and women.
Jiang Xin ate the discounted food that Yan Ling bought that night, and then she started having diarrhea in the middle of the night.
She had only taken a few bites when she felt the ingredients were not fresh and wanted to throw them away. But Yanling accused her of being ignorant of human suffering and said she was wasting food.
Jiang Xin could only endure the discomfort and finish all the food.
Jiang Xin was in severe stomach pain in the middle of the night, so she nudged Yan Ling and asked him to take her to the hospital.
To everyone's surprise, Yanling simply told her to take her medicine and then fell asleep again.
Jiang Xin felt wronged. She was in this state because she ate the food that Yan Ling bought, but this man didn't care about her at all.
However, Jiang Xin, blinded by love, quickly made an excuse for Yan Ling, thinking that he must be too tired, and that her diarrhea was just a minor matter and nothing to worry about.
The next day, Jiang Xin dragged her exhausted body to work, but her boss saw that she looked terrible and sent her to the hospital.
After paying her medical bills, the boss left, leaving Jiang Xin alone at the hospital receiving an IV drip.
During this time, she thought about calling Yanling, but she was afraid of interfering with Yanling's work.
Then she thought of Ye Beichen, but the answer on the other end of the phone was always, "The number you dialed is not in service."
