chapter Five

There are many obstacles in the world, as it should be for a person with strong vitality. - Wolfnag

"I'll go find you during working hours tomorrow. I want to buy a domestic magazine. When do you have time?" Xiaochuan suddenly said to Xiaoqing during the dinner.

"Oh? You want to go back to China to develop your career. Okay, I'll ask my assistant to do it for you at any time." Xiaoqing replied lightly.

Xiaochuan shook his head exaggeratedly: "It's really incredible, you and your brother are so famous."

Xiaoqing looked at her brother with a charming smile: "I always have to give newcomers a chance to practice, right? If your sister and I take charge of this matter personally, it will be a shame for you, right? You should be my junior to support you.

never mind."

"Brother Xiaochuan, have you decided to return to China to develop your career?" Qin Nan heard Qin Bei mention it before and thought it was just that. Looking at it today, it should be true.

"That's right, when you get older, you don't want to be living outside all the time. It would be great to have all of you in the country." Xiaochuan sighed.

"But, brother, does my celebrity sister-in-law agree? Didn't she just win an award?" Xiaoqing suddenly thought of this and asked hurriedly.

"We just got divorced." Xiaochuan lowered his head and said, and at the same time picked up the wine glass in his hand and drank it in one gulp without looking at everyone or explaining anything.

Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this, but they were very knowledgeable and did not ask any more questions. The atmosphere suddenly became silent.

"Come back as soon as you come back. Auntie welcomes you back. It just so happens that you can come over and talk to auntie from time to time." Yuan Jingshu first broke the silence and said.

"Daddy, will you really never leave again?" Ruoqi looked at Xiaochuan expectantly with wide eyes, and Ruochu also looked up at him.

"No, I still want to continue working in the publishing company over there, but the center will slowly move here." Xiaochuan answered Ruoqi's question with a smile. After speaking, he glanced at Ruochu, who smiled at him.

laugh.

Qin Bei stood up and filled Xiaochuan's wine glass across the table. Without saying anything, he picked up his own wine glass, clinked it with Xiaochuan's, and drank it all in one gulp. At this time, he knew that any comforting words were redundant.

Yes, and Xiaochuan doesn't need it either.

Xiaochuan followed his actions, put the empty cup on the table and said "thank you".

Realizing that he had made the atmosphere a bit tense, Xiaochuan cheered up and said, "What's going on with you and Bernard, Haruko? Are you separated or getting along?"

"We are in love, isn't this great?"

"You've been in love for twelve years, right?" Xiaochuan looked at this sister and frowned. His own relationship had failed, and so had she. No wonder her parents were sighing for them all day long.

"Sister Xiaoqing, do you really not consider becoming a countess?" Qin Nan handed the freshly filled soup bowl to Xiaoqing and asked Xiaochuan.

"Godmother, I think Uncle Bernard is a bit pitiful." At this time, Ruochu, who was sitting next to Xiaoqing, had to interrupt. Bernard is now the most infatuated man in her eyes, even though he chased her mother back then.

, but later on, the degree of persistence towards Xiaoqing has to be admired.

Xiaoqing patted Ruochu's hand, "But I really don't have the courage to enter a marriage. You all know my character. I'm used to being casual. I'm not afraid that he will change his mind. I'm just afraid of myself.

I'm afraid that I will get tired of my marriage and have to hurt him. Instead of doing that, I might as well keep a distance from the beginning. Just like how we are now, each has his own life and world, and each maintains an independent spirit and personality.

Because we get together less often and stay apart more often, there is always something new and fresh. I can’t think of a better way to get along with each other than this.”

"But, Xiaoqing, aren't you afraid that Bernard will change his mind?" Yuan Jingshu's worry is not unreasonable. This is also what Xiaoqing's mother is worried about.

"Auntie, if he changes his mind, doesn't it just mean that my decision is correct? Fortunately, I didn't marry someone who changes his mind so easily, but it makes you worried, auntie." Xiaoqing smiled at Yuan Jingshu with a hint of something.

Apologize.

"Oh, aunt just wants you to be happy. Back then..." Yuan Jingshu suddenly felt a little sad. The Wu family's brother and sister still have no relationship. Forget about Xiaochuan getting married. She always felt that the Qin family couldn't help Xiaoqing. Why?

She said that her son broke off the marriage. She didn't know if Xiaoqing's single life had something to do with it. Now that Xiaochuan was divorced again, she couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart. If the brother and sister couldn't be happy in the future, then

She really couldn't rest in peace until she died.

"Auntie, the past has long since passed. I have forgotten it. Do you still remember it so clearly?" Xiaoqing understood what Yuan Jingshu was referring to and accidentally caught a glimpse of Qin Bei putting the fish meat with picked fish bones in Qin Nan.

With the plate in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh, "I'm afraid there aren't many loves like Bei and Nan in this world. Not every marriage will be so successful."

Qin Beigang took his chopsticks back, and when he heard what Xiaoqing said, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "I think you can try it with Bernard. After so many years of testing, I think you can't go wrong."

"Let's see..." Xiaoqing shrugged and lowered her head to eat the food on her plate. She didn't want to continue this topic, so everyone chatted about other things in a smart way.

Ruochu looked at her parents, then at Xiaoqing and Xiaochuan. They were both the closest people to her, but she didn't understand why their fates were so different. She usually looked at her parents' affection.

She was very envious and happy, but today, after seeing her father and godmother's helplessness in their relationship, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. As for why, she couldn't explain.



On the weekends, I carried a bag of resumes and went to the job fair with my classmate Xia Tian. This was the first time for Ruochu to attend such a large-scale job fair in a stadium. Although he came early before the start of the job according to Xia Tian's instructions, but at the door

People outside have already crowded the entrance, and staff have begun to maintain order and direct everyone to line up for easy entry. There are many people coming from other places carrying backpacks.

Ruochu finally found Xia Tian.

"Ruochu, you're here. I didn't expect you to actually come. How about it, have you seen it?" Xia Tian looked like he was used to it.

"Xia Tian, ​​you won't attend every job fair, right?" Ruochu tentatively expressed her thoughts. She might not have the courage to do this once.

"Otherwise, what should I do? I have to find a job to stay, or I have to go back to my hometown. Who is like you? I want to have your conditions and will never suffer like this." Xia Tian spoke straightforwardly, without any other meaning.

, Ruochu could only smile, and she couldn't say anything, because the reality was there, and any comforting words seemed so pale in front of reality. But now she has forced herself to the same level as Xia Tian

On the road, there should be no sense of superiority and no slacking off.

"Ruochu, let's go in. We will split up after entering and gather here in two hours." Xia Tian noticed that the crowd started to move, so he pulled Ruochu up and said.

Ruochu nodded.

Every recruitment booth was crowded with people. Ruochu browsed around and selected several positions that were relatively consistent with her major, so she chose one of them and lined up outside.

The queue was very long, but it moved very quickly. After a while, Ruochu saw that the interviewer sitting behind the desk was a fat man with eyes.

The girl in front of her had just handed over her resume. The man just glanced at her and put it on the pile on the left without even looking at it. The girl was still seizing the time to introduce herself and talk about it.

My own glorious experience in school.

But before she could say a few words, the interviewer waved to her and said, "Next." Qin Nan knew that he was calling her, but the girl in front of her had no intention of leaving at all and was still talking.

The interviewer became impatient. He tried not to turn his head and stretched his neck to look around her and look at Ruochu. Ruochu quickly took a step forward and stood next to the girl.

He stretched out his hands and respectfully put his resume on the table. The man opened Ruochu's resume in a dignified manner, and Ruochu's heart rose to his throat.

The man with glasses quickly flipped through his resume and put it on the pile on the right. Ruochu noticed that he was not placed with the girl from before. Then he looked at Ruochufu again from head to toe. Ruochu said goodbye.

It's too much, and it feels very uncomfortable to be looked at like this.

"Qin Ruochu is a talented student from Y University, right? Do you have any requests or anything to say?" Ruochu thought he would drive her away, but he didn't expect to ask her to make a request. She was not ready yet and found that the girl before was still standing by her side, so

Looking directly at the interviewer, he said, "Can you give this classmate a chance to finish what she has to say?"

The man with the glasses and the girl looked at Ruochu at the same time. The man with the glasses subconsciously pushed up the frame of his glasses and coughed lightly, "Classmate Qin Ruochu, if you only have one chance, pay attention that this is the only chance. You still have to

Are you willing to give this opportunity to others?"

"If it were my opportunity, I wouldn't give it to anyone, but I believe you will definitely give her the opportunity to finish her speech, because this is the right she deserves." Ruochu answered appropriately, neither humble nor arrogant.

The bespectacled man glanced at Ruochu again, and lightly tapped Ruochu's resume with two fat fingers yellowed by smoke, "Okay, classmate Qin Ruochu, we will notify you in time when there is news, thank you."

"Thank you." Ruochu nodded slightly as a salute and turned to leave.

The subsequent experiences were all the same. There was no way for the recruiter and the applicant to communicate. The free negotiation method of two-way choice that Ruo Chu initially imagined did not appear at all.

The role of the interviewer is to collect resumes, and the students who come here seem to have completed their task as long as they send out their resumes, and then go back and wait for the call to see if they can enter the next round of selection. But no matter what, if

The first thing that puzzles me is that every time these people submit a resume, they seem to have succeeded, with happy faces, but the reality is that most people will be eliminated. In fact, everyone knows this, but everyone will not

Thinking that the person being eliminated is you, maybe this is the tragedy of this generation.

In fact, it feels bad to have your destiny controlled by others. At least if you feel very passive at first, then if you are not selected, you will not even be able to hear the reasons for your failure. Thinking of every resume you painstakingly make, it will be

It turned into work waste paper in someone else's wastebasket. Suddenly I felt a little bored, so I ran out early.
