"You are finally here! Why did you take so long to come?" Chen Yanyan was quite dissatisfied with my late arrival.
"I'm sorry! My mother is not in good health, so I wasted time." I sat silently opposite her and opened the napkin.
"Then why don't you hire her a servant? It's more convenient for you to go to work, and don't worry about money." She said as she casually flew a check in front of me. I didn't take it, and my heart ached. "Don't you want it?" She raised the corners of her mouth sarcastically.
Why not? This is the money I deserve, and he traded his dignity and flesh for it. I held out my hand, took the check, and sold my pay for the first time. I didn't even look at the number, and once I got it, I carefully folded it and put it in my pocket.
"Don't you want to see how many?" I shook my head silently.
"Forget it! Let's eat! I'll accompany you downstairs to buy clothes later." She frowned and looked at my clothes that I haven't changed since last night, "I really can't compliment your taste." I sneered in my heart. taste? What is taste? This is all done by the rich when they have nothing to do. For a person like me who is busy with food and clothing, who is still qualified to think about what to wear? After a while, all the dishes ordered were served. It was the first time for me to eat in such a high-end restaurant. Every dish was as exquisite as a work of art. Chen Yanyan ate very little, and only tasted lightly.
"Have you graduated from college?" she asked suddenly.
"Um."
"Then don't go to the bar."
"Um."
"May I arrange a job for you?"
I stopped eating stuffedly and looked at Chen Yanyan excitedly. She was amused by my eager gaze.
"Don't be so happy! I can only put you in and give you a chance. As for whether it can be done well, it has nothing to do with me. That's not my company, it's my little sister's. Do you understand?"
"I know, thank you Sister Yanyan."
"Then eat quickly." I was listless and swept away. This once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity had me gulping down my meal with excitement.
After dinner, Chen Yanyan took me to the Baijiahui supermarket downstairs for shopping. She didn't care about the money at all, and immediately asked the cashier to pack and swipe any clothes and shoes she liked. She didn't even spare my underwear. I stood shyly and far away, pretending to wait for her.
The salespersons at the clothing counters seemed to know her. She told them that I was her younger brother, and they praised how kind Sister Yanyan was to her younger brother with weird eyes. Maybe she often brings her younger brother to shop, I sneered in my heart. Two days later, Chen Yanyan called and invited me to have morning tea together, and then took me to meet a friend from the advertising agency. I was so excited that night that I didn't sleep well all night. With Chen Yanyan's status and identity, it seems that the boss of this advertising company should not be too bad. Maybe my career will start here.
The next day, I woke up early, just finished breakfast, and started to dress up. I dug out all the new clothes Chen Yanyan bought and changed them into a whole new look, as if I were a completely different person. Even the mother who just woke up was frightened by me, and it took a long time to recognize her son.
"Mom, I'm going to work today and I'm very busy! Aunt Wu next door will make lunch for you. You can find her if you have anything to do, okay?" I said cheerfully.
"Oh!" I'm not used to my mother's rare excitement at me.
This is what I have been looking forward to, and it should be said that it is the direction I have been working hard since I was studying: find a good job, be a senior white-collar worker, or even a gold-collar worker, feel proud and stand out. In front of the opportunity, I have long forgotten the pain and how the opportunity came.
At 8:30, I took out the new mobile phone Chen Yanyan bought to check the time, then carefully wiped the screen and put it back in my trouser pocket. I have been waiting for half an hour, but Chen Yanyan has not come yet. I stared anxiously at the door as I drank my fourth glass of lemonade. I finally saw Chen Yanyan walk into the restaurant lazily and slowly, walked to the front and sat down. Although I was anxious, I tried my best to restrain my anger.
"Did you come early in the morning?"
"No, I just arrived too."
Chen Yanyan glanced at me who was nervous because of lying, smiled eccentrically, and stretched out her hand to ask the waiter to take an order.
When I started eating, I didn't talk to her, I just lowered my head to eat. Chen Yanyan's sneer just now seemed to be mocking my humility, and I was embarrassed.
"Do you know how to smoke?" She asked suddenly. I was choking while eating char siew crisps. I hurriedly took a sip of the juice next to me to swallow the embarrassment that might spew out. She smiled and picked up the tissue on the table Wiping the corners of my mouth, I blushed all of a sudden.
"Don't act like a child. Remember you're a man," she said.??I looked up in embarrassment, picked up a tissue in a muffled voice and wiped my mouth indiscriminately.
"I don't know how to smoke and make people think you are too immature. Don't be timid when you go outside in the future, and be like a steady man."
After hearing this, I immediately raised my head and said seriously as if I had sworn: "I know how to smoke."
Chen Yanyan was dubious and gave a "puchi" smile. "I really will."
"I see, I believe. When did you learn to smoke?" she asked, holding back a smile.
I looked down at the tableware in front of me sadly, and said leisurely: "When I graduated from high school."
"Why? You don't know how to smoke at such a young age." She said affirmatively.
"Because my father died, it was me" After a long while, I squeezed out this sentence from between my teeth.
"Oh?" Before I could finish, Chen Yanyan interrupted me and handed me a cigar, "I think smoking can make people calm down and think about problems. You can continue to smoke." I reached out tremblingly and took her The cigarette and lighter handed to her were lit under her gaze, and she took a deep breath. The smoke was different from the ones she smoked in the past. It tasted light and mellow, not so pungent. I slowly exhaled the smoke ring, and Chen Yanyan's shadow in the smoke gradually blurred in front of me. The originally impetuous heart slowly settled in this mellow smoke. When the smoke dissipated, Chen Yanyan smiled slightly.
"Your learning ability, feeling ability, comprehension ability are very strong. The first time I saw you, I thought you were a piece of jade in the rough, which just needs time to polish." She took out dozens of dollars from her wallet and threw them away At the table, get up and go. I stub out my cigarette and follow her.
"Hey, Sister Yanyan, what brought you here?" When Chen Yanyan took me into an office on the eighth floor of the Jinhe Building in the city center, a fashionable woman ran up to me.
"Your timing is so accurate, do you know I'm here?" Chen Yanyan continued to walk inside casually, without much enthusiasm.
"Your sister Yanyan called and said she would come, of course I will greet you at the door right away."
"Stop coming."
"But you'd better not come shopping with me, I'm very busy recently."
"Who asked you to go shopping! I don't have that kind of leisure now." Chen Yanyan sat on the sofa, raised her legs and looked up and down this avant-garde woman contemptuously.
The enthusiasm on the woman's face dimmed for an instant, and then she laughed enthusiastically again, accepting all of Chen Yanyan's ridicule.
"I'll bring you a boy today. He graduated from advertising design and wants to find a job with you." Chen Yanyan slapped me with her mouth.
"Xiao Yang, the person in front of you is the boss of this advertising company. His name is Wang Dan. He is my elementary school classmate."
"Hello, Mr. Wang." I bowed.
She looked at me squarely, her eyes were as embarrassing as if she was inspecting the goods. I lowered my head, unwilling to make eye contact with her.
"Hehe." Wang Dan laughed dissolutely, and Chen Yanyan frowned slightly.
"Sister Yanyan, your eyesight is getting better and better!" Wang Dan sat next to Chen Yanyan, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, sneering and sarcastic.
"She's just my friend's younger brother, so don't guess." Chen Yanyan stood up hesitantly, turned around and went out and said, "He's in your hands, you can arrange it for him."
Chen Yanyan ran away in a rage after being exposed. I was left standing awkwardly in the office, and Wang Dan, who was sitting on the sofa watching Chen Yanyan leave and giggling. After a while, Wang Dan turned around and said, "Did you study advertising design?"
"Yes." I replied respectfully.
"Then go to the design department. I'll ask someone to arrange it for you." Her enthusiasm just now disappeared immediately, and she said coldly. She went back to her desk, picked up the phone and dialed inside. "Ask the manager of the design department to come over to me."
My job is finally settled. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
