Kenneth Osborne couldn’t help but pat her on the head and said, "When I do get a girlfriend, you’ll have to be below my girlfriend in terms of priority. Just like with Madcap Girl and you, once she and Joyce Shaw met online and got together, you moved down to the second spot."
Lawrence Winters thought about Madcap Girl’s situation, then thought about Kenneth, and carelessly nodded, "That’s fine, I can wait. Anyway, you’ll break up eventually. It’s not my problem to worry about."
Kenneth Osborne: "..."
How did this bizarre love philosophy even form?
In that moment, Kenneth Osborne really wanted to have a heart-to-heart with her Uncle Nick Zeller.
He sighed resignedly and said, "...Okay, got it. Let’s eat first. I’ll definitely let you know when I break up."
Lawrence Winters beamed and let out a sigh of relief. She quickly grabbed two blanched prawns, dipped them in sauce, and started eating them, then continued with her congee.
Kenneth Osborne didn’t have much appetite and just slowly drank his congee while watching her eat.
When he saw she was nearly done, he poured her some chrysanthemum tea and handed it to her.
Lawrence Winters took it over and had a sip, letting out a satisfied sigh.
Kenneth Osborne then asked, "...How’s the job hunt going?"
During this period, Kenneth Osborne secretly observed her and noticed that apart from jogging and browsing the Internet, she didn’t do much else.
Lawrence Winters smiled and nodded, "On Monday, our department had a job fair. I submitted a few resumes and recently received interview notices, got interviews next week!"
"Congrats then." Kenneth Osborne said lazily.
"What about you? Kenneth, are you going to continue with your small business or join a big company to gain experience?" Lawrence Winters asked curiously.
"You don’t need to worry about me. I’ve already received an acceptance letter." Kenneth Osborne’s eyes flickered slightly, "It’s a subsidiary focused on AI research, funded by a major company."
"That sounds impressive!" Lawrence Winters exclaimed excitedly, "Which company is it? What’s your annual salary?"
Kenneth Osborne looked at her with a smile, and after a moment, casually said, "Not much, just over a million or so."
"What?!" Lawrence Winters was stunned, quickly grabbing Kenneth Osborne, "One million! – And that’s not much?! Kenneth, what company is that? I want to join too! Do they need PR people?!"
"It’s not much. If it were my own company, as long as there are connections, doing casual work for a year would easily exceed a million." Kenneth Osborne said, "It’s Spencer Group’s new company."
"...Then why give up your own company to work for someone else? Are you overwhelmed by too much money?" Lawrence Winters was even more puzzled.
Kenneth Osborne shrugged, "But having my own company brings a lot of troubles too. Currently, I want to work with a big company for a year or two, to learn about their corporate management."
"Got it!" Lawrence Winters gave a thumbs up, "You have great ambitions, Kenneth! When you start your own company, make sure to give me a good position!"
"Why don’t you tell me your job requirements?" Kenneth Osborne pushed the bowl of bird’s nest dessert towards her, "Let’s see if they align with my company’s requirements."
"What? Can you help me submit my resume?" Lawrence Winters quickly gave Kenneth Osborne a sycophantic smile, clasping his hand as if she were about to bow, "I don’t have high demands. Just one: the salary."
She looked at Kenneth Osborne eagerly, "I’ll go wherever pays more!"
"You really don’t have high demands." Kenneth Osborne was often amused by Lawrence Winters, "Alright, I’ll ask around. Where’s your resume?"
Lawrence Winters hurriedly sent her resume to Kenneth Osborne using her phone.
Kenneth Osborne opened it and took a look, then furrowed his brow in confusion, "...Is this the resume you submitted?"
This resume, aside from the colorful ID photo in the top right corner, was rather lackluster in content. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦·𝘯𝘦𝘵
"...Yes, and I even got an interview notification from Spencer Group’s PR department!" Lawrence Winters raised her chin and said proudly.
Kenneth Osborne paused, "Spencer Group? The Spencer Group that started with real estate?"
"Yes, ranked tenth on the national rich list." Lawrence Winters nodded with a smile, winking at Kenneth Osborne, "Tell me, when I join Spencer Group and their big boss sees me, won’t he be surprised?"
Kenneth Osborne glanced at her, pondered for a long moment, then said, "Let me help you revise your resume. This doesn’t highlight your strengths."
"What strengths do I have? Aren’t they all written there?" Lawrence Winters curiously leaned over to look at her resume on Kenneth Osborne’s phone, "Look, all my transcripts for three and a half years are there, top of the class in every subject!"
"You’re applying for a job, not grad school." Kenneth Osborne couldn’t resist pinching her cheek again, smiling, "And even for grad school, they’d look at your test scores, not your usual grades."
