"Xu Nianhua, tell me, what kind of magic do you have?" Su Xi examined Xu Nianhua. She had seen many beauties in her life, having been praised for her looks since childhood. She was used to beautiful appearances, yet Xu Nianhua was able to make Hongen speak and gradually return to normal. She thought it was quite remarkable.
"Maybe, I’m just good-looking," Xu Nianhua replied earnestly.
Su Xi and Fei Jiayi both rolled their eyes in unison. Are they not good-looking?
Isn’t Sister Manyin good-looking? Or Aunt Jiang Wanru?
Aunt’s aura, combined with her well-maintained skin, is a kind of grace that ordinary people don’t have.
Su Xi often thought that if she could be as graceful as Aunt Wanru when she reached her age, the wrinkles on her face wouldn’t be called wrinkles; they would be a mark of the years, and she would have no regrets.
"How does it feel like the semester just started, and now it’s break time again?" Chang Hui sighed, reflecting that this half-semester had been filled with either intense studying or working at the 302 Translation Studio. Compared to the first half of the year, the studio had received more orders and earned more money.
The money earned in the first half only afforded them a good meal.
But in the second half, each of them received 500 yuan!
Five hundred yuan is equivalent to what an average person might earn in a year, or even longer.
For Chang Hui and Ding Guo, this 500 yuan was a fortune, something she never dared to imagine before.
"Exactly, I don’t want to leave," Ding Guo said, lying on the familiar desk, feeling reluctant to part with it. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝓷𝓮𝓽
"I don’t want to either."
Fei Jiayi, holding onto the materials that used to give her headaches, now felt she had improved greatly after such prolonged study.
Liao Jinling stretched and said, "Finally, no more endless translations every day. Am I the only one who finds those English letters give me a headache?"
Liao Jinling had worked really hard. Compared to translation, she preferred customer service, which doesn’t require as much specialized knowledge.
Ding Guo raised her hand. Although her grades had improved significantly, she still found it a headache.
Liao Jinling and Ding Guo high-fived each other.
Xu Nianhua raised an eyebrow and said, "Jinling, Ding Guo, I think in the future, you can be in charge of client reception. Jiayi is suited for proofreading, and Wanwan and Chang Hui, with their meticulous work, are perfect for the initial translation work."
Over the past half-year, Xu Nianhua had discovered each of the six roommates’ strengths.
Liao Jinling and Ding Guo were eloquent, able to chat up anyone effortlessly.
No, when seriously communicating with clients, they were very articulate.
Fei Jiayi was perfect for proofreading, always spotting mistakes the others missed.
Chang Hui and Zhou Wanwan were the true translators, doing meticulous and serious work with solid skills. The initial translation was most suitable for them.
"We like it." Liao Jinling and Ding Guo’s eyes lit up, nodding vehemently.
Chang Hui and Zhou Wanwan nodded in approval as well. This division of labor and collaboration was excellent. Translating doesn’t always require everyone to participate together.
"What about me? I’m just a cog in the machine, ready to pitch in wherever needed!"
As Xu Nianhua finished speaking, Zhou Wanwan chimed in, "Nianhua, you’re our cornerstone. With you here, we’re confident to run this studio."
