Chapter 165: Chapter 165 He Wants to Be a Security Guard at the Company Chapter 165: Chapter 165 He Wants to Be a Security Guard at the Company Shi Youjin’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, “Of course it was an accident, you don’t think I did it on purpose, do you? How could that be, you child, how could you think of me like that? I cherish you so much, how could I bear to burn you?”
“I was just asking, Dad, why are you so nervous?”
“No, no, I’m not nervous at all!”
As Shi Youjin spoke, he hurried toward the kitchen. Reaching the door, he suddenly stopped, turned back, and asked, “Chuyi, I heard from your mom that you now work at a big company called Jungle?”
Ye Chuyi nodded indifferently, “Yes, what about it?”
“Nothing, just that your dad is genuinely happy for you from the bottom of his heart!”
“Is that so?”
“Of course!”
Ye Chuyi observed his expression. She had been good at reading adults’ faces since she was a child because it meant getting hit or scolded less.
But now, she couldn’t see any happiness on Shi Youjin’s face.
“Chuyi, how are the benefits at your big company?”
“They’re okay.”
“Can you talk to someone in charge and get me a job as a security guard?”
“That might not work. Jungle is a big company with strict rules and regulations. Security guards must provide a criminal record certificate to be hired, and with a case over your head, you won’t pass the screening.”
“Can’t you pull some strings for me? I can’t just sit around at home all the time; I need to earn some money. I can’t bear to always spend your money. I’m still looking to earn some to buy you new clothes!”
“I don’t lack clothes now, and you don’t need to buy any for me. As for the security job, I’m powerless. My position is low, and the security department won’t make exceptions for me.”
Shi Youjin became anxious, “How can they not make an exception for you? Aren’t you the big boss of Jungle’s lover? Just whisper in his ear, and wouldn’t it be as easy as a word from the big boss?”
Ye Chuyi’s face turned cold, “Lover? Is that what Lin Yueqin told you?”
“Yes! She said you were kept by someone and made a lot of money every month.”
“Didn’t you tell me that Lin Yueqin was unwilling to speak to you? Unwilling to speak and yet she says so much, what’s it like when she’s willing to speak?”
“Is now the time to fuss over these trivial matters? The most important thing now is that you have to solve the job issue for me!”
“I don’t have the power to solve the job issue for you. Lin Yueqin seems quite capable, why don’t you go to her for help?”
As Ye Chuyi spoke, she picked up her bag and headed out, “Also, I’m not anyone’s lover, nor am I kept by anyone. My job was earned fair and square. The money I spend on you is through loans, not given to me by any man for free. You’re my dad, don’t just listen to rumors and join in tarnishing your own daughter’s reputation!”
Seeing her leave, Shi Youjin quickly stepped forward to stop her, “Chuyi, I’m your dad, of course, I want the best for you. How would I ruin your reputation? Calm down, sit down, let’s talk this out properly!”
Ye Chuyi pushed away the hand blocking her way and left directly.
Seated in the taxi, she still wondered, what kind of parents wouldn’t even ask and would just assume their daughter was someone else’s lover?
In their eyes, was she really such a contemptible person?
Her phone started to ring; it was Shi Youjin calling.
She didn’t pick up, letting the phone ring as much as it wanted without wavering an inch.
She returned home, rested for a day, and then went back to Jungle to work the next day.
Upon seeing her, Cong Ningyuan asked, “How’s your hand?”
“Much better, I can use it without any problems now.”
“Why didn’t you rest for a few more days at home?”
“It wasn’t necessary.”
Ye Chuyi sat down at her desk and began working through the mountain of files, “Is there something else you need?”
Cong Ningyuan hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth, “Yesterday afternoon, your dad came by.”
Ye Chuyi felt a sinking feeling, “Shi Youjin?”
“Yes.”
“What did he want?”
“He wanted to work as a security guard here, but he was stopped by security and couldn’t get in. He made a scene outside. I wasn’t in the company at the time and only learned about it when I returned. What do you think, should we just hire him? A security guard position isn’t a big deal.”
