146 You Don’t Treat Me as Your Best Friend

"Why?" Su Taotao asked, looking him up and down. "You have all your limbs intact because you have a hero like Dong Shengping who protects the country and defends the world. The reason you can stand in front of me and talk to me intact now may be because of Dong Shengping's broken arm. What qualifications do you have to say irresponsible things in front of him? He lost an arm, but his character and work ability are still better than yours. If I don't hire him, will I hire you?"

Dong Shengping paused.

Lin Changsheng was completely dumbfounded: "I, I didn't mean that, I just said it casually, really, I didn't mean to disrespect him, and besides, I didn't know he was a hero..."

Su Taotao said: "Do you think everyone likes to brag about their own great achievements? Just treat it as a warning and learn from it."

Lin Changsheng took his registration form in despair. Seeing so few gay men signing up this time, he thought he had a sure win. Unexpectedly...

Lin Changsheng wanted to pull a cushion on his back: "I wasn't the only one saying that just now..."

"Who else said it?" Su Taotao asked.

The person who just spoke up quickly looked away, dodging and reducing his or her presence.

Lin Changsheng was just talking in a hurry, just chatting casually, how would he know who said it?

He pointed randomly and said, "He, he, he and she said it too!" There are as many people as there are, everyone has said it, why is he the only one who is unlucky?

One person jumped up and said, "I didn't say that, don't talk nonsense!"

Another person: "Yes, I didn't say that either. I know he is a hero and has won first-class merit. My son admires him the most. How could I say that about him?"

"Wow..." Everyone exclaimed and looked at him.

Dong Shengping didn't like this kind of look, so he resolutely walked away without looking back.

Another person stood up and bowed to Dong Shengping's back: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

She turned to Su Taotao and Aunt Zhong and said, "I was the one who said 'I don't meet the recruitment requirements'. My name is Zhang Yuhe. I don't have a high level of ideological awareness and I'm not qualified to be a worker. Although I didn't mean to be disrespectful, I'm sorry. Please give me back my form."

The person behind Dong Shengping was Zhang Yuhe. Su Taotao took a look at her information. She had a junior high school education, was 23 years old, and had just gotten married and came here with her lover. The column for children said "none".

Su Taotao handed Zhang Yuhe's information back to Aunt Zhong: "Being honest, being able to correct mistakes, and being responsible for your mistakes are all rare and precious qualities. Now that you have finished the interview, put your resume aside and go back and wait for notification."

Zhang Yuhe cried out "Ah!" and stood there in a daze. Director Su was really unpredictable. Shouldn't he return her resume to her and let her go? Does that mean she still has a chance?

Someone tugged at her sleeve, and she turned away dazed.

Those who didn't dare to admit it just now regretted it deeply. It turns out that Director Su likes people who are honest and can correct their mistakes. If they had known earlier, they would have admitted it just now and left a good impression on her.

Su Taotao didn't care what they thought. The next interview went quite smoothly. The speed of the interview was faster than yesterday. About ten people were selected. Together with the people selected yesterday, the gap was not too big. The gap of male workers was larger than she expected. Originally, she wanted to recruit about ten people, but now she could only keep seven at most, including Dong Shengping. Even if Xiao Lu was included, there was still a shortage of two people. What's more, Xiao Lu was not on the production line and was not counted as a worker. The number seemed small, but in terms of proportion, the gap was 30%.

But this is the only way we can do now. Female workers may be less productive, but they are more meticulous in their work. If we can pick them out, we can just hire two more.

At noon, Su Taotao still took Fu Yuanhang to eat in the cafeteria.

Coming with him was Mumu, who was carrying Dongdong on his back.

Mumu is a social animal with a lively and cheerful personality like a little sun. He is happy all day long. But today, for some reason, he seems a little listless. He walks with his head down. He usually likes to stick to Fu Yuanhang, but now he seems a little indifferent to him.

Su Taotao and Aunt Zhong both found it very strange.

"What's wrong with Mumu today? Did you have an upset stomach?"

Aunt Zhong's family is not like Su Taotao's family which never has leftovers. Her "one-pot" dishes are particularly unpalatable when they fail. Occasionally there will be quite a lot left over, but she is reluctant to waste it, so sometimes she lets Mumu eat leftovers. Mumu has had stomach upsets from eating too much several times, and this is what he looks like when he has diarrhea.

So Aunt Zhong's first reaction was that Mumu had an upset stomach again, but then she thought, it wasn't her who cooked last night. If Jiji had cooked, Mr. Mo and Mumu would have been very supportive and would have eaten up all the soup.

Mumu shook his head weakly: "No."

Su Taotao asked Fu Yuanhang: "Is Mumu okay?"

Fu Yuanhang pursed his lips and shook his head, then asked Su Taotao: "Sister-in-law, can we grill oysters tonight? Mumu wants to eat oysters."

Fu Yuanhang seldom makes requests, so whenever he does, Su Taotao will satisfy him.

"Sure, if there's any left in the market, if not, we can grill something else, scallops, conch, abalone...any shellfish will be delicious."

Mumu pouted: "I won't eat it!"

Aunt Zhong was so surprised that she couldn't help but say, "Hey, did I hear you right? Didn't you say every day that Xiaohang's food is delicious and you admire your sister-in-law's cooking? Why don't you eat it?"

Mumu groaned and turned his head to the side: "I am breaking up with classmate Fu Yuanhang... for one hour. Come back in an hour to ask me if I want to eat or not. Let's see how sincere I am before making a decision!"

This time, not only Aunt Zhong, but also Su Taotao couldn't help laughing. Mumu is such a funny kid.

"Xiao Hang, did you do anything to make Mu Mu angry?" Su Taotao asked.

Fu Yuanhang was particularly helpless: "In the test yesterday, I got full marks, and Mumu got 98 points."

Su Taotao: “…”

Aunt Zhong: “…”

Aunt Zhong tapped her son's head and said, "You are asking for trouble. You couldn't pass the exam better than Xiaohang, so why are you angry with him? I let you be proud every day, and now you can't keep your first place, right? You deserve it!"

Aunt Zhong sighed secretly. Ever since Mumu started school, he has never ranked second in exams. He always ranked first. It’s no wonder that he is depressed because this is his first time to suffer such a setback. But what does this have to do with Fu Yuanhang?

Mumu puffed up his cheeks and glared at Fu Yuanhang: "I'm not angry that he scored better than me. I'm angry that he studied so well but never told me and didn't treat me as his best friend!"

Su Taotao laughed and touched Fu Yuanhang's head: "Mumu, our Xiaohang is just like that. He didn't mean it. If you let him tell you directly, 'I have good grades and always get first place in the grade,' wouldn't that be embarrassing for him? But Mumu, believe me, I promise you, you are indeed his best friend, no doubt about it."
