Chapter 479: Embarrassment
After saying this, the professor still felt unsatisfied and continued to scold Jiang Chengfeng and his roommates, "You are already juniors. At the most critical period of college, you still treat studying as a joke. Will you still be so careless and full of lies when you enter society in the future?"
His words were like a blow to the four people, making them feel extremely uncomfortable. Jiang Chengfeng had no way to defend himself and could only watch the professor walk away.
"Forget it," his roommates consoled him. "He won't believe anything we say."
"If you fail a course, you fail it. You can just retake it next year. We are all talented people. What are we afraid of?"
"Anyway, our course design is still in the USB drive. When we retake the course, we can just use it and pass it in seconds."
…
Jiang Chengfeng felt even more guilty. He suddenly remembered that when they were fighting the fire, Tao Zhiyao seemed to be filming them with a camera. Hope appeared in his eyes. "Sister Taozi has evidence. I'll ask her to send the video to me."
Jiang Chengfeng was not the only one who encountered embarrassment.
As mentioned earlier, Miao Xiaomei is currently working as a temporary makeup artist in a theater, working in the evening, and she also has work tasks tonight.
...
...
Theater plays, dramas, operas, etc. usually start performances at eight o'clock or eight-thirty, and the makeup artist should arrive at the scene around six o'clock.
Miao Xiaomei had something to do, so she told her leader in advance that she wanted to come half an hour later. The leader was understanding and said it was no problem.
As a result, she arrived late that night and only arrived after the performance had started.
When she arrived backstage, the deputy general affairs section chief who was in charge of coordinating these temporary workers flew into a rage the moment he saw her. "What are you still doing here? Are you here to be an audience member and watch the show? Do you know how busy we are today? We almost couldn't complete the makeup task! We couldn't find you anywhere, and you didn't answer the phone when we called."
Miao Xiaomei knew that being late was her problem, so she said nothing and let the deputy section chief teach her a lesson.
In fact, when the deputy section chief called her, she was helping everyone put out a fire. She only saw the missed calls after she got on the bus. When she called again, either no one answered or the call was directly disconnected. She knew at that time that the deputy section chief must be angry.
The deputy section chief continued, "We were all worried about whether you had any accidents. Then someone told me that you had private work outside and you were too busy to take care of this!"
When Miao Xiaomei heard this, she immediately understood what was going on.
Where there are people, there are disputes. Even in the formal and official Capital Theatre, even if it is just a temporary job at the lowest level, there are still people who are jealous and still gossip behind the back.
"Because Teacher Li (Li Sitong) praised you highly, we hired you because of her face! Otherwise, with your resume and academic qualifications, there is no way you could get in here. But looking at your actual performance, I think you don't cherish this opportunity at all. Maybe you are looking for better opportunities and look down on our small temple," the deputy section chief admitted that Miao Xiaomei's makeup skills are very high, and some experienced regular makeup artists in the theater are not as good as her. However, if you don't obey work orders and don't respect organizational discipline, no matter how good your skills are, they won't hire you!
"Go to the Finance Department tomorrow to settle this month's salary, and you don't need to come again," said the deputy section chief.
Miao Xiaomei saw his expression of no mercy and actually smiled. She said, "Okay."
She didn't say a word to defend herself. It was a fact that she was late. Whether she was shooting a video or putting out a fire, she was indeed doing her own "private work"!
Furthermore, the deputy section chief did not have the power to make personnel decisions. He was conveying the leader's intentions. The leader had already decided to give up on her. Why should she beg for anything? In this society, a little girl like her was not qualified to change the leader's decision.
The only thing she felt guilty about was Li Sitong, she felt sorry for her help.
…
Li Xiaoru also missed the call.
