When Lan Feiyang came in, the first arrivals were discussing privately: "Why does it look like Wu Zetian chooses a male favorite? Isn't he just a housekeeper? Why is the 'sir' who does special services also here?"
"Hehe." Someone smiled ambiguously, "Don't you know this? Isn't it obvious that the family's personal butler is...hehe, facing a young and beautiful rich woman, who doesn't want to gain both wealth and beauty?"
Seeing someone else come in, the people in the room raised their heads and glanced at Lan Feiyang, and then said with great contempt: "Why are such country bumpkins here too? They think this is a roadside restaurant hiring waiters!"
These words may be too harsh. However, Lan Feiyang, who grew up in a mountainous area and only attended high school in the county for three years, does seem a bit rustic among this group of fashionable men who have at least graduated from a college and have spent a few years in the city——
Although he has been bathing in the city's customs and culture for nearly four months.
But who would wear jeans when applying for a job in a company? Especially in one of the largest companies in Bohai City!
A fashionable man wearing a pair of shining earrings patted Lan Feiyang's shoulder and asked in a sinister tone: "Boy, did you go to the wrong place?"
Lan Feiyang asked awkwardly: "Isn't this the interview place for the president of Tianyu Group to recruit personal butlers?"
"It's a nice place. But aren't you here to be used as cannon fodder?"
At first, the pretty boy with the afro hair and speaking in a contemptuous tone snorted again: "Do you know what the other names of personal housekeeper and life secretary are? You should go back and spread the rice.
Feed the chicken.Chicken!”
"What, what do you mean?" The simple Lan Feiyang looked at him confused.
"Come back when you grow up! You old hat!" Bang Huangfa felt that it was a shame for such a group of fashionable and handsome guys that such country bumpkins came here to apply for jobs.
At this moment, a beautiful woman like an assistant came out from the inner room, stood at the door and called an applicant's name to come in and take the exam.
Lan Feiyang took advantage of this and found a seat to sit down. Seeing those people entering arrogantly only to come out dejected one by one, Lan Feiyang couldn't help but become nervous again.
After all, he only had one experience of applying for a four-star waiter job, which was incomparable to this style. What's more, that time, his cousin Lan Qing, who had just graduated from college, accompanied him to the exam.
"Are you nervous? I see your hands are shaking." A thin boy with good features and good looks next to him gently touched him with his elbow.
"Oh, a bit." Lan Feiyang nodded politely to the boy.
The boy smiled, showing his snow-white teeth: "Don't take it too seriously. If it works, it will be fine. If it doesn't work, just drop it and apply for another job again."
"Thank you!" Lan Feiyang envied the boy's leisurely composure, as if he was not here to apply for a job, but to hang out.
But he can't, he really wants this job. Otherwise, he won't have the money to pay tuition and fees, and he won't be able to go to college!
When there were only a few applicants around, Lan Qing's name was finally called, and Lan Feiyang stood up suddenly.
"Brother, relax." The handsome boy showed his white and neat teeth again. Lan Feiyang felt that he was very suitable for a toothpaste advertisement.
"Yes." Lan Feiyang nodded gratefully.
In the room inside, there were three examiners, two men and one woman, sitting in straight clothes and with serious faces. They seemed to ask a few questions casually. However, Lan Feiyang felt that his answers did not seem to satisfy them.
"Is your hometown in the mountains of Anhui?" the beautiful woman on the left glanced at his information and asked at the end.
"Yes, very poor in the mountains." Lan Feiyang said easily and confidently. Of all the answers, this was the only one that he blurted out without thinking, so it was the most sincere and natural.
The three people discussed in low voices for a few words, and finally unexpectedly asked Lan Feiyang to come back tomorrow morning, and President Guo would conduct an interview in person.
Lan Feiyang knew that only five people would be selected to participate in the re-examination in the preliminary examination after registration - CEO Guo's personal interview. Then he would be one of those five people!
He quickly bowed his thanks and walked out of the inner room.
He passed by the handsome boy as he walked in and out of the door. Facing the boy's questioning gaze, he could only smile and nodded in the affirmative.
When the shift was handed over at the hotel, his cousin Lan Qing, who was off work, asked him what the result of his application was. Lan Feiyang nodded: "I passed the preliminary test. I will go for the retest tomorrow."
"Okay!" Lan Qing, who was short and ordinary in appearance, gave him a high-five encouragingly, "Keep up the good work!"
"Yeah. It's just..." Lan Feiyang looked around and said in a low voice, "The graduation certificate and ID card are both yours. What if someone sees that you don't look like me?"
"It's not that big of a deal." Lan Qing said carelessly, "Besides, we are cousins, so we already have similarities, so it's okay. If you were hired, your salary would be much higher than this. If you worked as a housekeeper there for one year, it would be better than this.
You have been working as a waiter for more than two years, which guarantees that your tuition and miscellaneous expenses for one year of college will be enough. From now on, if you work part-time while going to school, and I will support you a little more, won't you be able to finish college?"
"Thank you, cousin." Lan Feiyang patted Lan Qing on the shoulder and said sincerely.
"Don't thank me yet." Lan Qing said seriously, "I don't support you for free, I want to charge interest. It's not much, one thousand yuan, you can pay back five thousand in four years, and so on.
Ten thousand for fifty thousand..." Seeing Lan Feiyang raising his hands angrily and about to hit him, Lan Qing ran away quickly.
"Go to hell! Are you a loan shark?" Lan Feiyang stamped his feet and waved his hand at Lan Qing's back, "I'm pissed off, I don't want your money. If you don't have money to pay tuition, take another year off from school and earn money slowly!"
"Tch..." Lan Qing turned around provocatively, "You can't even make a joke. Let's go! You go to work well."
Lan Feiyang had no choice but to go to the restaurant where he was serving to do some work.
He was born in a poor mountainous area in Anhui and had no mother since he was a child. Later, his grandparents and father died successively, and he lived with his uncle and aunt.
The aunt was fine in front of the uncle, but she made him do this and that behind his back, cutting wood, fetching water, cooking, washing dishes, taking care of his sister... she treated him completely like a servant.
Fortunately, he has a kind-hearted aunt who has been supporting his education since he was in the second grade of elementary school. Otherwise, he would have dropped out of school to work in farming or work.
Four years ago, the aunt wanted to take him to school in the city. The uncle was afraid that she would have evil intentions, so he moved the family to a neighboring county - the aunt's natal family, and cut off contact with the aunt.
In the past year or two, when he was being abused by his aunt, he tried several times to go to Bohai City, where her aunt was, to find her at the address she had written to him.
During the summer vacation of the first year of high school, my uncle worked outside with the engineering team, and his aunt asked him to work from morning to night. He visited the watermelon field, followed her to use a cart to drag watermelons to buy, cut rice, harvest rice, dry rice, pull out seedlings, etc.
He had no time to read or do homework from morning to night.
He obviously had a fever when he was caught in the rain because he was rushing to harvest rice when a thunderstorm came. Her aunt said he was faking it, so she not only beat him with a cane, but also tore up the only photo of him and his aunt.
He couldn't bear it anymore and finally ran away. But he had no money and couldn't buy a ticket, so he had no choice but to steal the train.
I didn’t want to be caught by the conductor on the way, so I was eventually sent back to my hometown by the police uncle.
