As they were leaving, Su Lin said to Lou Xi, "Lou, aren’t you taking the cake with you? What a waste."
"Oh? Are you really giving it to me?" Actually, she had been eyeing this cake for a long time. In her rush to come over at noon, she only managed to grab a couple of bites. Now that he mentioned she could take it, Lou Xi was all too willing to help out!
Can’t waste food.
So, the group waiting for interviews and those waiting for results saw Lou Xi walking out with a plate, on which lay the cake none of them dared to cut earlier.
She sat in the corner, eating cake while calling Bai Lu, generally saying today’s interview was a bust. She figured she’d have to go back to waiting tables again.
Though waiting tables was a bit tiring, the restaurant she was working part-time for was a high-end Western restaurant. She could practice her language skills and even spot celebrities sometimes...
"Can’t talk now, the interviewer is coming out to announce the results."
"Don’t hang up, let me listen to the results with you."
"What’s there to listen to? It’ll just announce that lots of people didn’t make it, including me, of course..." Saying this, she got up, her knees still aching. "Hey, guess what, Li Ruolan came for the interview too. Felt like I stepped in dog poop."
"Thank you all for coming to Jia Sheng Group’s interview today. The results are now out." The person announcing was Su Lin, standing smartly in a suit at the front of the large conference room.
Lou Xi found this person to be quite different from before; now he looked rather charming.
"Anson Lee, congratulations, you have been selected."
Anson was so moved he shed a tear.
"Betty Chou, congratulations, you have been selected."
Betty excitedly made a victory sign.
Only two people were recruited today, which meant the remaining nearly two hundred people could go home.
Lou Xi had predicted this outcome long ago. No problem, she could come back and apply next year. After all, Jia Sheng Group was her dream.
Everyone else started to pack up to leave, all looking defeated.
But Su Lin didn’t leave. He closed the folder and cleared his throat.
The crowd instantly stopped, could there be more?
"This recruitment event is primarily to hire an assistant for the President’s office. I have also selected one suitable person from among you!"
Upon hearing Su Lin’s words, everyone got excited; it meant there was still a two-in-a-hundred chance to become an employee in Jia Sheng Group’s President’s office!
Lou Xi, of course, knew this had nothing to do with her. She had already decided to go home, take a nice bath, and sleep well.
"Lou Xi, congratulations, you have been selected for the President’s office."
"Here—" Hearing her name called, Lou Xi reflexively responded.
The applicants all looked towards Lou Xi.
A plain-looking female student wearing a dress, without makeup, looking anything but professional — such a person was actually recruited by Jia Sheng Group?
"Yes, you were selected," Su Lin said very confidently. "The three selected candidates should stay behind afterwards; there are some things we need to explain to you."
Well, even if the selected person was Lou Xi, who was less experienced than everyone else present, it was Jia Sheng Group’s decision...
"Why select her? She has no work experience whatsoever and has a messy lifestyle. Can’t believe Jia Sheng Group would recruit someone like that. If this continues, it’s a wonder if Jia Sheng Group doesn’t go bankrupt!"
Just as everyone was about to leave, a voice suddenly rang out, full of doubt.
"Oh? Not selecting her, but selecting you?"
