Chapter 2



The Wen family restaurant was located at the gate of Lian University and was doing very good business. Wen Ruo's school was not far away and she often came to help, and thus she got to know Lu Xingyun.

This boy always wears a casual sweatshirt. He is tall, has short hair, and deep eyes. Wen Ru would get nervous whenever she sees him.

Now she was panicking again.

Lu Xingyun's attire just now was completely different from when he was in school. If he was youthful back then, now he was full of the fierceness of the workplace. If he was the interviewer... Wen Ruo felt that it would be impossible for him to answer the questions well.

what to do? Wen Ruo felt like running away.

"Do you know him?" the girl next to him asked again.

"I don't know him." Wen Ruo's ears turned red, but she pretended to be calm.

The man didn't even look at her when he passed by. The girl thought his vision was quite strange. Could he be a lolita complex? She glanced at Wen Ruo and felt that if Wen Ruo's eyes were a little bigger, she would really look like someone from the second dimension.

She pushed the door open: "Let's go in."

There were already eight people in the lounge waiting for interviews, but Wen Ruo didn't look closely. Her mind was in a mess.

The girl continued to chat quietly: "I wonder if that person just now is an employee of the company."

She is very talkative, just like her roommates. When they are together, they often talk about boys in school, saying things like "I think XX is so handsome", "Do you think XX has a girlfriend now?" or "XX confessed to me, I am wondering whether to accept him."

Sometimes they would ask Wen Ruo, "Who do you like?"

She always said, "I don't like anyone."

Wen Ruo seldom lies, but this is one of the rare lies she keeps telling.

Wen Ruo was in no mood to chat at this moment.

About half an hour later, a company employee came out to take roll call.

Wen Ruo is the third one.

When she went in, she was relieved to find that the interviewer was a stranger and not Lu Xingyun as she thought. But this did not mean that everything would become easy.

After asking a dozen questions, the interviewer smiled warmly and nodded goodbye.

When walking out of the company building, Wen Ruo felt sweat on his back.

She walked to the bus stop and took the bus home.

Wen Lixin and his wife had already gone to open the store, and the house was empty. Normally at this time, Wen Ruo would definitely go to the store to help, serve food and water to the customers, or help with the bills, but today she didn't dare to go, for fear that she would not have the confidence to answer if her parents asked.

She turned on her computer and looked for job ads.

There are a lot of job advertisements refreshed every day, but there are not many suitable ones. Either they are far from home, or the salary is too low, or the threshold is high, or the company is too small and has no development prospects. Therefore, a technology joint-stock company like Chengrui is really suitable for her. Otherwise, why are her parents so looking forward to it?

Unfortunately, I’m afraid I don’t have a chance.

Wen Ruo refreshed the webpage again.

Before they knew it, it was evening. Ji Yun called her in the middle of the night. She was hesitant, so Ji Yun asked her when he got home, "What happened?"

Wen Ruo pinched her fingers, like a child who had done something wrong: "Maybe not."

"Why is it not working?" Ji Yun placed the unused vegetarian dishes in the restaurant on the kitchen counter. "Was there a translation error?"

"No," Wen Ruo shook her head, "...There's a girl from S University who also came to apply. I think she is definitely more suitable than me." Only two translators were recruited, and there were not only that girl but also other recent graduates who went for the interview today. Based on the university she attended, she really didn't have much competitiveness.

Ji Yun smiled, "S University must be good, right? Look at your cousin, she talks like she was choked by a machine gun, can such a person apply for the job?"

Although my cousin is a top student, she has a very aggressive personality.

Wen Ruo replied: "My cousin is destined to be a CEO."

Ji Yun rolled his eyes.

There's nothing you can do about it. Her uncle is lucky and his two children are both very capable.

"You are just imagining things now, I don't believe it," Ji Yun began to pick vegetables to prepare dinner, "You will see, in a few days you will get a call asking you to go to work."

Mom was trying to comfort her. Wen Ruo said slowly, "Oh."

Oh my god, this daughter is really too childish. Ji Yun shook his head, thinking that she can't be compared with her uncle's two children.

Thinking of this, Ji Yun was very disappointed.

After giving birth to Wen Ruo, she always had high hopes for her daughter. She hoped that she would be an excellent student, a top student, and achieve great things in the future. However, Wen Ruo just grew up to be neither good nor bad, without any superhuman qualities at all.

It can be seen that people cannot go against fate. What kind of child they will have is determined in advance.

Fortunately, she is well-behaved and healthy, which is Ji Yun's greatest comfort.

However, two days later, when Wen Ruo was helping her mother prepare dinner in the kitchen, her cell phone rang.

Ji Yun tilted his head and glanced at the screen. He found that it was an unknown number. He immediately looked forward to it: "Is it a reply from Chengrui Company? Hurry up and answer it!"

Wen Ruo was a little afraid, fearing that it might not be good news, but Ji Yun kept staring at her, so she had no choice but to answer the phone and said, "Hello."

The voice was soft and sweet, and it was comfortable to listen to. The older sister who was calling smiled and said, "Are you Miss Wen Ruowen?"

"Yes, you are..."

"I'm from the Human Resources Department of Chengrui Company. I'm here to inform you that you've been hired. Can you come over next Monday?"

ah!

Wen Ruo couldn't believe it because she felt that she must be the one who was rejected.

"Yes, I can come...thank you." She stuttered a little.

Ji Yun couldn't wait to ask, "Is it done?"

"Yeah." Wen Ruo held the phone, feeling dazed.

"Oh, that's great!" Ji Yun wiped his wet hands on his apron and called Wen Lixin, "Lixin, Ruoruo has found a job at Chengrui Company. They just called and asked Ruoruo to go to work."

Wen Lixin was on his way home: "I'm going to the market to buy some seafood. Ruoruo likes shrimp."

"Buy some more scallops. I'll make seafood porridge for her tomorrow."

After that, Ji Yun called Wen Ruo's grandmother, uncle and aunt again to tell them the good news.

Wen Ruo's meals have been particularly good these days.

She was happy to see her parents happy, but she was a little worried about going to work in a few days.

However, time passed quickly and finally it was Monday.

Ji Yun sent Wen Ruo to the company and nagged her many times, telling her to behave well and strive for progress.

Wen Ruo nodded.

But when she started working, she discovered one thing: she had originally applied for the position of translator, but now she was asked to be an assistant.

"It's like this." The HR manager explained softly, "You were originally a translator, but now one of our managers is in need of an assistant because he also needs an interpreter to translate documents for him. I think you're a good fit."

Seeing Wen Ruo's hesitation, she said, "If you don't want to..."

She really wanted to have a job so that her parents would feel at ease. Wen Ruo said hurriedly, "I am willing."

The manager has seen countless people, and during the interview he found that this girl was very naive. She agreed after just a few words, without even thinking about the reasons behind it. She smiled and said, "We won't treat you unfairly. The salary for an assistant is the same as that for a translator, and if you do a good job, you will have the opportunity to be promoted."

It would be even better if the salary was the same, Wen Ruo thought, that way she wouldn't have to spend her parents' money anymore.

"Okay." Wen Ruo was much happier.

Seeing that she had fully accepted the offer, the HR manager asked her to fill out a registration form. Of course, it was only a probation period now. She asked an employee to take Wen Ruo to the production department's office.

The unfamiliar environment made Wen Ruo a little nervous again.

After several employees in the office introduced themselves to her, a staff member named Zhang Lu, who looked to be around 30 years old, said, "The manager is not here, but he should be back soon."

Wen Ruo nodded: "What should I do now?"

"No hurry, I'll show you around first." Zhang Lu introduced, "That's the manager's office. You're sitting over here. The manager will call you if there's anything. By the way, you can speak foreign languages, right? You'll definitely go on business trips with him in the future."

On business trip……

Wen Ruo had never thought about this, but working was different from going to college, and she could accept it.

Zhang Lu asked again: "The manager likes to drink coffee. Can you make coffee?"

"Yeah." Wen Ruo nodded. Her college roommate Zhou Qingni liked drinking coffee and taught her how to make it.

"Great," Zhang Lu clapped her hands, "Why don't you make me a cup first, so I can see how good your cooking skills are!"

"Okay," Wen Ruo asked, "Where is the tea room?"

"I'll take you there." Zhang Lu was afraid that she couldn't find water and coffee.

"The manager brought these coffee beans back from abroad. They smell so good." Zhang Lu was a warm and cheerful person. She gossiped with Wen Ruo, "Let me tell you, although our manager is only the manager of the production department now, the whole company will belong to him in the future. He is a typical second-generation rich man who comes to experience life at the grassroots level."

ah?

Wen Ruo was frightened and wondered why the Human Resources Department would let him be the assistant to such an important person? She doesn't have any experience.

Seeing her pale face, Zhang Lu chuckled: "Don't be afraid, our manager is not a monster, you just need to..." Before she finished speaking, she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and shouted, "Manager?"

The big shot is back?

Wen Ruo couldn't help but cast a glance.

The big shot opposite was wearing a light blue shirt with fine stripes, his hair was combed meticulously, he had deep eyes and a straight nose, and he looked very imposing.

It was Lu Xingyun without a doubt.

Wen Ruo was so frightened that her hands trembled, and the coffee beans in the spoon rolled off.

Looking at the dark brown beans all over the ground, Lu Xingyun raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Oh, these beans are too slippery. Be careful next time." Zhang Lu comforted Wen Ruo and introduced her, "Manager, she is a new assistant and she is not used to our company yet."

Are you not adapting? Lu Xingyun recalled that when he ate in a restaurant in the past, Wen Ruo would always stutter or make mistakes when paying the bill.

His classmates would joke, "Don't panic little sister, the brothers are not in a hurry."

Her little face would turn red and she would calculate the bill even more slowly.

She's not unadaptable, she's just stupid.

Such a stupid graduate might never find a job in his life if he didn't happen to be in need of an assistant.

She had to thank him.

The author has something to say: Many years later.

Wen Ruo: Speaking of which, the HR manager can be considered as the matchmaker between us.

Lu Xingyun: ...Yes.
