Chapter 416 Dogs Fighting Dogs
The room fell silent instantly.
All eyes were on Zhao Shucheng.
Zhao Shucheng was struck dumb. The handwriting on the paper was indeed his. He liked to enlarge the character "Cheng" to imply that he would succeed in whatever he did. The stroke at the bottom of the character "Cheng" would reach the tree. This was his usual signature habit, and no one could imitate it.
But how could that be?
How could it be such a coincidence!
He happened to draw a city he had seen before, but it wasn't in the same country as the city in the question.
Sister-in-law Yao pointed to the word "Finland" and made Zhao Shucheng open his eyes wide to see clearly, "...It's Finland, not England."
Zhao Shucheng was on the verge of a complete breakdown.
He ignored Sister-in-law Yao's words, only shaking his head and saying it was impossible, that Yao Jianshu was trying to harm him, yes, yes...
"...It was Jin Nan who ruined me! It was Jin Nan! He's the one who instigated me to cause such a scene at the job interview..."
Zhao Shucheng was scared.
Without Jin Nan's instigation, he might have privately confronted Yao Jianshu to settle the score. Since Yao Jianshu didn't intend to make things difficult for him, he would naturally tell him the truth.
Even if he was unwilling to accept the truth, he would only secretly plot against Yao Jianshu.
I wouldn't choose to go to the interview site and make a scene in front of so many people.
What does it mean if things get out of hand?
This means that Vice Minister Li likely knew about today's events, knew that he misunderstood the question, couldn't even pronounce the city's name correctly, and knew that he came in first place...
Zhao Shucheng shuddered.
Upon hearing Zhao Shucheng's words, Senior Jin's expression changed drastically. "You're spouting nonsense! Zhao Shucheng, did I force you to come here and cause trouble? You have your own legs and your own mouth. You're the one who came here and started spouting rudeness..."
"It's you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shucheng lunged forward, intending to pinch Senior Jin. "You're the one who said Yao Jianshu wanted to suppress me, the number one, and was deliberately targeting me. You're the one who deliberately said I couldn't come to the event and couldn't confront her face-to-face. I was provoked by you, which is why I came..."
The two started fighting like dogs, each trying to shift the blame onto the other.
The group of interviewees frowned and sneered, quietly backing away from the two.
After watching the two men punch and kick each other, leaving them covered in bruises on their faces and bodies, Sister-in-law Yao finally called out to security, "Get them out of here."
We also reminded the two, "We will report this to your school and ask them to help investigate why you are targeting Yao Jianshu."
The two men's expressions changed drastically.
After glaring at each other, they left with the security guard.
Someone muttered under their breath, "With the first-place candidate behaving like this, and the second-place candidate becoming the interviewer, is he really that capable or did he get the job through connections?"
"Didn't you hear what that guy surnamed Zhao just said? This Comrade Yao was expelled from graduate school by Vice Minister Li, but somehow he's back on track. He probably has connections!"
"I think so too, otherwise how could a first-year graduate student possibly..."
"that is."
Sister-in-law Yao frowned and looked over, but Yao Jianshu stopped her, straightened up, smiled at the interviewees, and said loudly, "If anyone has any objections to me being an interviewer, you can discuss it with me privately. I welcome academic challenges at any time."
She wore a red top with white polka dots, a dark green skirt, and high heels. Her black hair was braided and hung over her right shoulder, adorned with a matching polka dot headband. Her eyes were smiling, brimming with confidence. Overall, she looked radiant and flamboyant.
The sounds below vanished instantly.
Yao Jianshu paused for a moment, then continued, "This interview is related to the investment promotion conference, to attracting foreign investment, and to the country's economic development. Every investment we secure contributes to the country's economic construction. Please take this seriously. Now, please step back into the corridor, line up in an orderly manner, and continue with the interviews."
Looking at the flowers she had raised, so proud and independent, Sister-in-law Yao felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welled up with tears of joy.
She gave her sister-in-law an encouraging look, then turned around and led the group away first.
The crowd followed her out in an orderly fashion.
Order was quickly restored and the interviews continued.
Sister-in-law Yao returned to the temporary office and called over someone she trusted, saying, "Go and keep an eye on these two people for me, and see what other tricks they have up their sleeves."
"Are they also targeting JianShu?"
Sister-in-law Yao shook her head. "I suspect that the rumors were spread by these two people. Vice Minister Li... he's not that bored to pick a fight with a student. If he didn't want to accept JianShu, he wouldn't have specifically asked for her in the first place."
"...Perhaps the name 'Jianshu' sounds like a boy's name?" The man scratched his head.
Sister-in-law Yao glared at him and waved her hand, "You hurry up and go. Those two might not have left the city yet. They were just fighting like dogs. Who knows what might happen next."
"Why."
The man responded and turned to leave.
Sister-in-law Yao actually guessed it.
The two were watched by security guards as they left the city, but they started arguing again before they even reached the bus stop.
"...You dare say you didn't do it on purpose? You knew that this city name exists in both England and Finland, so why didn't you remind me? Now look what happened, I've been eliminated, are you happy now? Are you satisfied?"
Jin Nan sneered, "Zhao Shucheng, are you out of your mind? What good would it do me if you were eliminated? I was counting on you to deliver a heavy blow to Yao Jianshu, but what happened? You took the hit yourself, while Yao Jianshu was completely unharmed!"
"You dare say you got no benefit from it!"
Zhao Shucheng spat at him, "If you kick me out, Vice Minister Li will only have the three of you left. If you then harm Yao Jianshu at the investment promotion conference, Vice Minister Li will definitely focus on cultivating you and that guy surnamed Luan. No, Luan is from the military. It's not certain whether he'll go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You're the only one left by Vice Minister Li, so he'll definitely bring you into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"
The more he talked, the more likely it seemed.
Jin Nan was all planned in advance!
"This is all your conspiracy! I'm going to expose you to Vice Minister Li!"
Jin Nan, "..."
"Damn it, Zhao Shucheng, are you brain-dead? How did you get first place and pass the entrance exam for Vice Minister Li's graduate program?!"
"You son of a bitch, if I weren't stupid, why would I believe you!"
Zhao Shucheng also cursed, gritting his teeth, "You made me look so bad today. This will reach Vice Minister Li's ears sooner or later, and I will definitely be expelled from school. Let me tell you, Jin Nan, if I can't finish this graduate program, then you can forget about staying in the senior position!"
What do you want to do?
Seeing Zhao Shucheng's gritted teeth, Jin Nan became wary. "Zhao Shucheng, don't do anything rash..."
Zhao Shucheng gave him a sinister smile, hailed a taxi, and drove off.
Jin Nan was so angry that his nose almost crooked.
He kicked a brick next to the green belt and cursed, "What the hell is this?"
As a result, his toe sizzled, and the pain made his face contort in agony.
When the bus arrived at the stop, Jin Nan boarded it, grumbling and cursing.
"They've left?"
Sister-in-law Yao frowned as she listened to her confidante's report. "Back at school?"
The confidant shook his head. "Jin Nan took the bus back to school, but Zhao Shucheng took the taxi in the opposite direction, so I chose to follow Zhao Shucheng. I found out he went to the teachers' college and specifically asked for a female student named Zhao Xiang. That girl is also studying English..."
