Watching groups of five walk into the meeting room, all coming out with worried faces, some overwhelmed women even came out crying.
Everyone mentioned how abnormal the interview was here.
Lou Xi grew increasingly uneasy, thinking that the interviewers didn’t even like those highly educated, let alone her, a third-year student from Nan University.
It seemed she was only going through the motions.
Not long after, a female employee in a white shirt and a half-length skirt opened the meeting room door and said, "Numbers 165 to 170, please enter the meeting room."
Lou Xi glanced at her paper with her number squeezed and deformed. She was precisely number 170.
So she stood up confidently, wanting to show dominance.
Unexpectedly, as she walked through an aisle, a foot suddenly blocked her path. She was too focused on being confident to notice the foot, and the result was imaginable...
"Ah—" Lou Xi fell to the ground, landing on her knees.
"Oh dear, are you alright?" A familiar voice reached her ears, and then someone held her wrist, trying to help her up.
The ground was solid ceramic tiles after all, and she was wearing a skirt, leaving her knees unprotected and painfully stabbed!
Looking up, she saw Li Ruolan feigning kindness as she held Lou Xi’s wrist.
The meeting room still seated many interviewees since results were given immediately, they hadn’t left yet.
Now, they all watched Lou Xi fall to the ground while a young girl tried to help her, only to be shrugged off.
"Don’t pretend to be kind; you’re the one who tripped me, and now you’re pretending to help. It seems you not only have abundant inner drama but also excellent acting skills. The Oscars owe you a golden trophy!" Lou Xi was never one to suffer silently; Li Ruolan wanted to embarrass her before the interview, so she’d expose it all—let’s see who gets embarrassed!
Li Ruolan’s face instantly froze, stammering, "Don’t falsely accuse me, I... was just kindly helping because I saw you fall..."
"You slap me then hand me a candy, and I should thank you? You have got to be joking." Lou Xi stood up straight; her knee still hurt badly. She glanced around.
Actually, the interviewees didn’t care about the little incident between them; they were more concerned about who would be hired today.
Such petty tricks might draw attention at school, but in the workplace, no one cares who you are.
"You two over there, if you don’t want to interview, the door is that way." The female employee coldly told Lou Xi and Li Ruolan.
Lou Xi didn’t want to stoop to Li Ruolan’s level; she still wanted to proceed with the interview.
Li Ruolan immediately smiled broadly and walked ahead, leaving Lou Xi behind.
Lou Xi: "..."
Wait, Lou Xi just realized that she was interviewing in the same group as Li Ruolan, WTF? This woman is also applying at Jia Sheng Group?
Suddenly, Lou Xi felt like throwing up the meal she just had...
But for the internship salary of two hundred a day here, she decided to go for it!
Even though it’s likely just for show.
She slowly walked forward because her knee was still very painful.
She was the last to enter the meeting room and saw there were three interviewers inside, one woman and two men.
The man sitting in the middle...
Su Lin?
Lou Xi looked at Su Lin in surprise, but Su Lin pretended not to recognize Lou Xi, sitting there seriously, still with a bit of authority!
