elder sister
As for how to get it, it is a problem for Shen Anyan.
It was obviously not feasible to go through the formal procedures. Putting aside the issue of money, even if she was really rich, most of the guests who could enter the auction were either rich or noble, and she would not even be qualified to enter.
Then we have to find another way.
Shen Anyan plans to apply for a job.
But this was a bit difficult. The venue staff were not tutors, and they wouldn't care whether she ranked first in the city in the high school entrance exam. It was still a bit difficult to get in.
Shen Anyan originally wanted to apply for a position as a backstage staff member managing auction items, but as expected, he was rejected by the interviewer.
Shen Anyan was not discouraged and planned to think of other ways after leaving. However, the other party said: "But if you are willing to work at the front desk, we can consider hiring you."
Shen Anyan was a little surprised, but then she thought, no matter what happened in the front or backstage, as long as she could get in, she would always be able to find a way to get close to the auction items.
She agreed readily at once.
So the next day, she received an employment notice from the venue.
Chen Anyan didn't think much about it. He reported to the venue management department, went through the formalities, changed into work clothes, and then cheered up to think about how to go backstage.
The position she finally applied for was as a receptionist at the venue, a position with a very strict dress code. Shen Anyan's work uniform was a three-piece suit: a white shirt, trousers, a black vest, and a tie. The work suit was tailored to fit her well, which made her move quickly, but for Shen Anyan, who was used to casual wear and sportswear, it still felt a bit restrictive.
She reported in in the afternoon, and as soon as she arrived, she found that almost all her colleagues were men, and they were all young, beautiful and had good figures.
The foreman was a woman in her forties who looked a bit serious. She told Shen Anyan the specific job requirements and let her go to work.
The male colleagues gathered together, watching her whisper, occasionally letting out a little laughter. A few of the more outgoing ones took the initiative to run up to her and greet her, then pushed each other and laughed as they left.
In addition to Shen Anyan, there was another girl in the reception staff named Chen Song.
When Chen Song met her new colleague, she boldly stepped forward and introduced herself. Since they were the only two girls in the entire department, they naturally became a team.
Chen Song said: "They are just like that. In the service industry, there are always more men than women. They find it strange to see women, and you are so beautiful."
Shen Anyan smiled at the other party.
Working at the venue was quite easy, the workload was not heavy, and the colleagues were easy to get along with. Apart from the trouble that the male colleagues would come over to her from time to time to confess their love to her, Shen Anyan was still quite comfortable.
Chen Song was a little surprised when he knew her thoughts: "I thought you were quite happy, but you actually find it troublesome?"
Shen Anyan was somewhat helpless: "I already have someone I like."
Chen Song smiled and said, "Oh, you're quite loyal then. Alas, having too many men is annoying. Fortunately, the men in our industry are relatively good-looking, otherwise it would not only be annoying, but also frustrating."
Shen Anyan didn't know how to respond to this, but Chen Song didn't care. He continued, "How did you come up with the idea of applying for a job here?"
Shen Anyan told the truth: "I originally wanted to go to the backstage to manage the auction items, but I didn't get the job, so I had to come here. I didn't expect it would be so easy to get in."
Chen Song smiled and said, "That's normal. After all, there are too many men in this industry. There are plenty of young and handsome men. There is no shortage of them. What is lacking is women. So as long as there are women willing to apply, as long as they don't slack off, we will recruit them - that's it, there is still a shortage."
After Chen Song finished speaking, he patted her shoulder in a comforting manner: "I know that ambitious women don't want to work in the service industry, but sometimes life forces us to do so. Who doesn't want to be a white-collar worker? But don't be sad. In our department, the promotion quota has always required one woman and one man, so you know. The service industry also has its advantages. Although it is embarrassing to have to hang out with a bunch of young men, the competition pressure is not great. Everyone is on our side! We can just muddle along."
Chen Anyan smiled helplessly, thinking to himself, I'm not asking for a promotion, as long as I can get the auction item quickly.
She had been searching everywhere these days but couldn't find any opportunity. The venue kept the auction items very strictly guarded, and Shen Anyan couldn't find any chance to take action.
When she thought of this, she felt a little depressed. Today was her turn to stand guard. Shen Anyan stood in the corridor, but she was still planning how to get the auction item.
As she was thinking, she suddenly noticed that someone seemed to be looking at her. Puzzled, Shen Anyan looked up at the source of the gaze.
At the end of the corridor stood a tall and slender figure. He was wearing a dark suit and his hair just reached his shoulders. His features were somewhat similar to Shen Anyan's, but he was more indifferent.
Seeing Shen Anyan looking over, the other party nodded as a gesture, then turned and left.
The man appeared calm, but Shen Anyan was not calm at all.
Because that person was her sister, Shen Yanfei! Her biological sister from the same mother and father! Her biggest support for a smooth and happy life before she traveled through time!
Thinking about the auction items, Shen Anyan felt that he could... find another way out?
Shen Anyan decided to ask his sister to act as a matchmaker, but before he could figure out the reason, the opportunity came.
The venue manager found Shen Anyan the next day and asked her to serve in the private room on the top floor of the venue.
Others didn’t know the inside story yet, but Shen Anyan already understood it.
The room number the manager gave her was the room Ana Shen usually used when she came to the venue.
Shen Anyan went there neatly.
————
And in the top floor box, Ana Shen put down the folder and tapped his fingertips lightly on the table.
The file contained information about the "Feast" that she had asked her secretary to find. It was clearly organized and had nothing to do with the Shen family.
But the name "Yan" is quite coincidental.
There was a knock on the door, Ana Shen closed the document and signaled the assistant to open the door.
Shen Anyan walked in. This room was not unfamiliar to her. Shen Yanfei had brought her here several times when the auction was held in the capital before, and they all stayed in this room.
After Shen Anyan entered, the assistant closed the door and left the room. So, only Shen Anyan and Shen Yanfei were left in the living room.
Ana Shen said, “Sit down.”
Shen Anyan didn't hesitate and sat on the sofa opposite - it had been a long time since he had sat on such a comfortable sofa.
Shen Anyan lay down and relaxed, then stood up again soon. He looked at the other side with a well-behaved look and asked, "What did Mr. Shen want to ask me?"
Shen Yanfei had been observing the other person since he entered the room. When he saw him lying on the sofa like a salted fish, he subconsciously raised the corners of his lips, but quickly retracted them and asked, "How do you know my last name is Shen?"
Shen Anyan said: "I calculated it."
Shen Yanfei: "Oh? You can also tell fortunes?"
Chen Anyan smiled and said, "Yeah, it's very accurate. One divination costs one hundred yuan. Do you want to try it? It won't be free. You and I are destined to be together. I can tell you a fortune for free first."
Shen Yanfei raised his hand and said, “Please.”
Shen Anyan: “Well…you had blueberry toast and milk this morning.”
Ana Shen raised his eyebrows: "Wrong, the toast is mango flavored."
Shen Anyan: "Hey - stop coaxing me, aren't you allergic to mangoes?"
Shen Yanfei smiled, her posture relaxed, she leaned back, and asked, "Okay, that's pretty accurate. Then tell me another fortune. Where is my sister now?"
Shen Anyan hissed, "That doesn't count."
Shen Yanfei smiled: “Oh - unfortunately, this is the only thing I want to ask.”
Shen Anyan simply stopped pretending with her, stood up and sat next to her, shouting: "If you don't want to ask, then don't ask. You still have to pay! Hurry up, one hundred yuan!"
She stretched out her hand.
Shen Yanfei pushed his sister's hand back again, his eyes a little pitiful: "I thought you were going to ask for too much, but now you don't even have a hundred?"
Chen Anyan said: "Yes, it's quite pitiful. I live in a room that costs one thousand a month and eat less than fifty a day. Fortunately, there is a poverty subsidy for tuition, otherwise I can't even afford to go to school."
The joking expression on Shen Yanfei's face disappeared, and his brows frowned slightly: "Then why don't you go home..."
She wanted to add, "Look how thin she is," but when she took a closer look, wow, she didn't look that thin.
So the topic changed, and Shen Yanfei said speechlessly: “Is it that fifty meals a day are delicious?”
Shen Anyan shrank his neck and explained: "I'm mainly worried that you will think I'm crazy."
Well, I can understand that. After all, this matter is really mysterious and no one can believe it all at once.
Shen Yanfei asked again: "Also, didn't you say you were in school? Why are you working here again?"
Shen Anyan then told him about the "Time Jade" and explained, "I want this."
Ana Shen nodded, without asking any more questions, and said, “Okay, I’ll ask someone to bring it over. Are you hungry? I’ll take you to eat first.”
Shen Anyan immediately perked up: "Let's go! Hey, what about my work?"
Ana Shen: “Don’t worry about it, I’ll ask someone to take care of it.”
