Chapter 69: Little Thoughts



Inside the rental house.

After Lin Shirui entered the room, she saw Lily watching TV on the sofa and asked her in confusion, "Did I read the time wrong? Aren't you going to the store today?"

"I'm not going. Yesterday a customer booked a table at Damimi's for tonight and said he also ordered tens of thousands of dollars worth of wine. She talked about this all night long yesterday and I don't want to hear her bragging anymore today." Lily said unhappily.

"If I don't want to go, then I won't go. My body can't handle drinking like this every day." Lin Shirui said as she changed clothes.

"I'm telling you, have you thought about changing jobs? If you think it's okay, I'll talk to the boss. You told me that places like bars are full of all kinds of people and are very messy, so it's better not to go there."

When the company was recruiting, Lin Shirui wanted Lily to work as a receptionist.

The company's requirements were high, and Lily's skills were too high for even a regular employee. The receptionist position, because of its high appearance requirements, was paid significantly more than the average employee, and Lily's appearance met the requirements.

"I'm tempted too. The job you mentioned is easy, but the income is half of what I earn now. My brother just got into college this year, so he needs the money right now."

Working from 9am to 5pm is just about meeting people, don't take it too easy. With a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan, including five social insurances and one housing fund, you can find qualified people even in Shanghai.

But compared to working in a nightclub, which pays at least $15,000 a month, it seems a bit too little.

"If you keep drinking like this in the bar every day, sooner or later something will happen to you. You're trading your life for money now, but if something happens in the future, won't all the money you earn be used to pay for medical treatment?" Lin Shirui was really worried about Lily.

Lily told Lin Shirui many times about what happened in the bar. Even though there were various little tricks to avoid drinking, in the end the customers spent money, and it was just a matter of whether they got drunk or not.

"It's only been in the past few years. My brother changed jobs after graduating from university."

This is the family situation. When Lily went to college, the family savings were emptied out, and now the money for her brother's schooling depends on her.

My younger brother studied hard and got into a good university. He also earns his living expenses by working, but I can't just watch him wear shabby clothes and eat poorly.

Fortunately, college is only four years long, and with my brother's grades, it won't be difficult for him to find a good job after graduation.

"Let's not talk about my trivial matter. You came back so late today. Where did you go with your boss?" Lily moved to the side of the sofa to make room for Lin Shirui.

"I went out to have dinner with someone. Guess who it was?" Lin Shirui sat down and opened a bag of potato chips. She didn't eat enough at night.

"Who could have guessed this? Your boss is such a great man, it's not surprising that he eats with anyone. But who treated us to this meal? He's too stingy. Why doesn't he even care about filling himself up?" Lily also reached out and took a piece of potato chips.

"Yang Mu invited us, and she brought Zhang Binbin and Tang Yan from her company. They ordered quite a bit of food, but I couldn't get a word in while they were chatting, and I couldn't just sit there with my head down to eat, so I was basically punished to sit there. Can't you just grab a bag for yourself?" Lin Shirui stuffed the chips into Lily's hand and took another bag herself.

"Da Mu Mu, that's enough. Your boss just invested in a movie and now he's meeting Yang Mu again. Is he planning to enter the entertainment industry?"

Lily heard about the previous investment from Lin Shirui.

"What's the deal with being in the entertainment industry? The director Xu Jinglei, who invested in that drama, came today to ask to borrow his car for filming, and then..." Lin Shirui told Lily what happened today.

"So your boss banned a troublesome actor for a female classmate?"

Lin Shirui later found out that Si Mingyu was studying at Jiaotong University.

"It's almost the same as saying it's banned. Anyway, it's over." Lin Shirui found the trending search on the Internet and showed it to Lily.

"This situation is completely unbearable," Lily commented after watching. "This is clearly a hero saving a beautiful girl. His female classmate must be very beautiful."

"Yeah, it's really beautiful."

"Prettier than you?"

"She's prettier than me." Lin Shirui had to admit.

"Sister, is she prettier than you? She's your number one rival." Lily immediately became excited, and the fire of gossip burned fiercely.

"What number one rival? What does it have to do with me?" Lin Shirui felt that Lily was making fun of her.

"If your boss isn't interested, how can he take care of this matter?" Lily asked her back.

"Aren't they classmates from the same school?"

"There are so many people in a school. If you change an ugly one, you'll see if he can handle it."

"Even if he likes that female classmate, what does that have to do with me?"

"What does it have to do with you? Sister, you've talked a lot about your boss since you came back recently. Do you really have no idea at all?" The girl from Northeast China spoke so directly.

"What can I think? Can others look down on me?"

"If I like you, then you will have some ideas, right?"

"This is impossible. It's impossible for him to fall in love with me."

"With your boss's conditions, anyone else would have been tempted by various means long ago. Sister, let me ask you, if you don't pursue someone like this, what kind of person are you looking for?"

Lin Shirui didn't know how to answer for a moment.

It has been half a year since she applied for the assistant position. During this time, she has been following Si Mingyu and can see everything he does clearly.

He is a serious person, elegant in his conversation and graceful in his demeanor, completely devoid of the overbearing airs of the rich second generation. He is down-to-earth, always busy studying or handling company matters, without the bad habits of the rich second generation, nor their shortcomings of boasting and impatience.

At least for now, Lin Shirui has not met anyone with better conditions than Si Mingyu. No matter what the conditions are, she has never even heard of them.

This person is afraid of comparison. If she is exposed to excellent people every day, she will definitely look down on those ordinary people. If you say that she doesn't have such thoughts, she herself won't believe it.

But if you ask me if I really have any ideas, I don’t really have any.

Outstanding people of the opposite sex are always attracted to each other. Men like beautiful women and women like handsome men. This is nature.

So there are two new words: Bai Fu Mei and Gao Fu Shuai, and Si Mingyu is the most typical representative of them.

Lin Shirui has many suitors, but she doesn't even look at them, because she habitually uses Si Mingyu as a standard.

No one can predict the future of love, let's not talk about it for now. If you have to choose between a handsome and very rich guy and an average-looking guy with a decent income, which one would you choose?

Normal people know what to choose.

This is not just a groundless internet rumor, but a real person right next to you. Do you think you can let him go?

Lin Shirui didn't know what to do either.
