[Thank you: Clown i, Second Sister, and user Na Yicha de Bitter Smile for their tips; I really appreciate everyone's support, and I'm asking for more recommendations and tips! Thank you!]
Ding Fan was attending such an interview for the first time. He sat quietly to one side, appearing much more composed than the other anxious applicants.
After waiting for about an hour, Ding Fan was surprised when his number was called. According to the numbers given out earlier, Ning Luoxi's number was twenty-nine, and his was thirty. Normally, Ning Luoxi should have been called first.
Ding Fan furrowed his brows slightly—it seemed that Chen Hong had already started playing dirty behind the scenes.
"It's okay, I'll go check..." Ding Fan could see that Ning Luoxi looked disheartened, so he gently patted her on the shoulder.
"Brother Fan, don't offend people here. We can't afford to provoke them."
Although Ning Luoxi hadn't known Ding Fan for long, she could tell he was a daring person. She was actually worried that Ding Fan would start a conflict with someone here since they deliberately snubbed him.
Ding Fan nodded, but did not speak further to Ning Luoxi, and headed straight for the interview office.
...
The person in charge of new employee interviews for Qin's Group today was Li Guangxin, a fortysomething project manager at Qin's Group.
Chen Hong was able to enter Qin's Group largely because of Li Guangxin. Before she even graduated from college, Chen Hong became Li Guangxin's mistress and even aborted a child for him.
However, Chen Hong was not a foolish woman. She used her relationship with Li Guangxin at Qin's Group to become a full-time employee before she even graduated from college.
Early this morning, Chen Hong saw Ning Luoxi. Chen Hong, someone who must avenge every slight, believed that if it hadn't been for Ning Luoxi, her rich boyfriend would never have betrayed her. Without Ning Luoxi, she could have avoided serving an older man every night and would already be the young mistress of a wealthy family.
Therefore, Chen Hong pulled Ning Luoxi's interview application from the stack, convinced that if Ning Luoxi could ruin her moment, she could ruin Ning Luoxi's life.
To please Chen Hong and make her happy, Li Guangxin didn't mind removing anyone's data. With hundreds of people applying for just a few positions, removing one didn't really matter.
Li Guangxin sat in his office, tasked with interviewing the candidates all morning. At this moment, he felt rather bored. The candidate with number twenty-eight had just left, and the office was empty. He reached over and squeezed Chen Hong's buttocks.
Chen Hong glared at Li Guangxin. "Stop it, I'll satisfy you tonight."
Li Guangxin smiled, pulling Chen Hong into his embrace. "But I'm starving now, what should I do?"
Chen Hong gasped. "Then I'll let you eat every day; I just worry you might not be up for it..."
Li Guangxin chuckled wickedly, his hand becoming more mischievous...
While this immoral couple was engrossed in their office escapades, the office door abruptly swung open without warning.
Chen Hong was startled and immediately jumped off Li Guangxin's lap; Li Guangxin's face turned pale with fright.
Li Guangxin truly hadn't expected anyone to barge in without even knocking. He believed knocking was a basic etiquette that all the interviewees should know, otherwise, he wouldn't dare engage in such thrilling activities to spice up his boring morning.
The person who pushed the door open was Ding Fan. Upon seeing the distasteful scene of this despicable couple, he felt a wave of disgust. If he hadn't come in, they might have ended up broadcasting their actions live.
"Who are you? Don't you know that you should knock before entering someone else's room?" Li Guangxin adjusted his expression and then asked Ding Fan sternly.
Ding Fan truly admired Li Guangxin's ability to change his demeanor so quickly—scared half to death one moment, and completely righteous the next. This was indeed a talent.
Ding Fan was in no mood to waste words with Li Guangxin; he walked over, pulled up a chair, and sat down. "According to the number plates issued, after number twenty-eight comes number twenty-nine. Why didn't number twenty-nine come in for the interview?"
Number twenty-nine—Chen Hong's eyes narrowed, and she quickly remembered that this man had come with Ning Luoxi.
"She's disqualified. There's no need for an interview; it's been directly canceled." Now, without waiting for Li Guangxin to speak, Chen Hong interjected.
Chen Hong could see that Ding Fan was standing up for Ning Luoxi. Remembering that everywhere she went someone was speaking for Ning Luoxi, she felt a bout of anger.
"Directly canceled?" Ding Fan snorted softly. "I'd like to know, where did Ning Luoxi fall short?"
"Do I need to explain it to you? Who do you think you are? My boss?" Chen Hong sneered coldly.
"Are you here for the interview?" Li Guangxin glanced at the number plate in Ding Fan's hand, then rifled through the documents on his desk. "But I don't have your interview application here..."
"So it seems you don't even have the qualification to be interviewed." Chen Hong smiled maliciously to one side. "Manager Li, it seems like this person is here to cause trouble. I think it's better to call security to handle this."
Ding Fan sat quietly, his expression was rather calm.
Li Guangxin did listen to Chen Hong, and immediately picked up the phone to call the security room.
"Kid, the trouble is just to stand out. I will make you know what regret means, making you regret taking a stand for that bitch Ning Luoxi!" Chen Hong said.
Thump thump... Noisy footsteps sounded from the corridor outside.
The office door was opened, and four security guards with rubber batons rushed in.
"This man is posing as an applicant, causing a scene in the company. Take him to the security room to understand where he is, teach him a lesson, then take him to the police station. Disturbing public order, I think he should stay in the police station for ten days to half a month," Chen Hong said, folding her arms.
How cruel!
Ding Fan had a whole new understanding of this Chen Hong, a natural at harming others, whose ideas of wrongdoing seemed to come effortlessly.
"Chen Hong, don't make it hard for Brother Fan..." Ning Luoxi ran over from outside.
Just now, seeing a group of security guards coming this way, she knew something was bad. Ding Fan had been kind to the Ning Family, and was only about to act because of her, how could she ignore it when Ding Fan was in trouble?
"Chen Hong, I won't participate in the interview at Qin's Group anymore, Brother Fan was just standing up for me, please don't make it hard for him."
Chen Hong looked at Ning Luoxi and snorted coldly. "Ning Luoxi, aren't you usually the best at playing the pity card to deceive men? Want to save your so-called Brother Fan? Simple, just convince these security guards. I believe, with your clever methods, you definitely can."
Ning Luoxi's face turned ugly, Chen Hong's words were very offensive. Playing the pity card to deceive men... clever methods... it was virtually an insinuation that she was a woman skilled at ensnaring men.
"Chen Hong, I know you're angry at me, but this has nothing to do with Brother Fan. If it would calm you down, then arrest me," Ning Luoxi said.
Chen Hong's lips curled up. "Ning Luoxi, I really do admire your skills in seducing men. So many men have lost their souls over you... You truly are a vixen!"
Smack! At that moment, a sharp slapping sound suddenly erupted.
All those present were stunned, and when they realized what had happened, it turned out that just now, Chen Hong had been slapped across the face by Ding Fan, who was sitting opposite her.
Up to now, Ding Fan had been sitting on a chair, and they really couldn't understand how that slap had come from him.
"You, you dare hit me..." Chen Hong burst out in rage. In the company, protected by Li Guangxin, she had mixed quite well, never expecting that at this moment, she would be slapped by someone dressed like a bumpkin in her own company.
"Arrest him for me!" Chen Hong's hair was somewhat disheveled, and she looked a bit like a madwoman at that moment.
Ding Fan hitting someone in the office meant these security guards could no longer keep silent if they wanted to keep their jobs. Immediately, they lunged toward Ding Fan.
"Stop!"
Just then, a pleasant voice came from the doorway of the office.
On hearing this voice, Ding Fan was startled. He was very familiar with this voice, he didn't even need to look to know whose it was.
The voice was Qin Manshu's.
The moment Ding Fan began to suspect that this Qin's Group was the company mentioned by Qin Manshu. But he had been uncertain until now. With Qin Manshu appearing here, everything became clear. This company was owned by the Qin family.
The newcomer was indeed Qin Manshu. Today was originally a recruitment day and she happened to have some business in Dongcheng, so she came over to check. But who knew that as soon as she arrived, she heard chaos here.
"General manager..." Upon seeing Qin Manshu, Li Guangxin could no longer pose as a leader. She was the general manager of Qin's Group in the twenty-six northern provinces, a small figure like himself couldn't compare to her at all. Right away, he scurried to Qin Manshu like a servant.
"General manager..."
"General manager..."
As soon as Qin Manshu appeared, Chen Hong and the security guards immediately stood at attention. Being a big BOSS several levels above their own, it wasn't easy to even see her once. They had not expected her to appear here.
"What's happening here, why is this mess…" Qin Manshu spoke solemnly.
"General manager, it's like this..." Li Guangxin said.
