Chapter 383: Life is a Roller Coaster
“Xiao Luo, we meet again!”
Xiao Luo had been invited into the office alone, and when he stepped in, Shen Qingyan stood up from her chair and welcomed him with a charming smile.
Xiao Luo returned her smile and said, “You have a good memory, Miss Shen. You can even remember a ‘nobody’ like me.”
“Well, I didn’t at first, but now that you’re my BFF’s husband, don’t you think I have to?”
Shen Qingyan stepped away from her desk. She looked alluring with her tall, slender figure, and the way she moved gave her a noble air. She looked at Xiao Luo from head to toe, then said, “Well, to be honest, I had an excellent impression of you at first, and I even somewhat admired you. But now, I despise you for no other reason than the fact that you’ve slept my best friend!”
Xiao Luo wasn’t sure if she had said it in jest, but he felt himself breaking a sweat all the same. This woman may have a beautiful face, but her speech was direct, uncluttered, and brutal!
“Your marriage with Li is an unfortunate accident, and although you can’t really be blamed, a mistake is still a mistake. With your identity and social status, you are undeserving of Li. My words might hurt you, but this is the truth. The difference between Li and you are like the sky and the earth. If it wasn’t because of how attached Xiaobei was to you, you both would never have known each other,” Shen Qingyan said.
CLAP… CLAP… CLAP…
The silence in the office suddenly resounded with Xiao Luo’s deliberate applause as he looked at Shen Qingyan with a faint smile on his face.
Shen Qingyan gazed at him with questioning eyes. “What do you mean by this?”
“You couldn’t have said it any better, and I think that was worthy of some applause,” Xiao Luo replied.
“Aren’t you upset?”
Shen Qingyan was surprised as what she had just said was nothing more than to address her best friend’s miserable luck, losing her virtue in such dastardly circumstances. Were the perpetrator a man of fame and prestige, or even someone who had attained some form of achievements to boast of, she could have accepted it. However, he turned out to be just some poor fool from the countryside who came to Xiahai looking for a job, and she felt despondent for her friend.
Xiao Luo shook his head, “Every word you have said is reasonable, and I am truly undeserving of her. When you have the time, I hope that you can speak to her so that we can end this false relationship as soon as possible. If you do succeed in convincing her, I’ll be very grateful.”
Shen Qingyan was stupefied as she didn’t expect such an attitude from Xiao Luo. Shouldn’t he feel thankful that he had such a beautiful woman as his wife?
She asked, “Don’t you think that you’re a little conceited?”
“Is that a bad thing?”
Xiao Luo hurled the question back to her and said, “Being conceited is better than groveling oneself before another person like an ant.”
Shen Qingyan fixed her gaze at him for a moment, then immediately smiled and responded, “I hope that you’ll always maintain such an attitude towards life.”
She was baffled and couldn’t figure out this man before her. Outwardly, he was evidently not a successful person, nor did he appear to be someone with much experience either. Yet, his eyes showed a deep, profound understanding that only came to those who had experienced the ebbs and flows of life.
Xiao Luo only smiled, and getting to the point, he said, “I’m just here to go through the motions, and I’ve never considered working for Huayao. If Su Li asks you about it, just say that I’m unqualified in all aspects and unsuitable for this job.”
Upon hearing that, Shen Qingyan felt a tightness in her chest. There were countless people out there who were smashing their heads just to get a job in Huayao, and even if it meant they had to start from the very bottom, people still flooded in. And, here he was, telling her that he was just there to “go through the motions” with no interest to land the job. No matter how she looked at it, she couldn’t help seeing it as an affront to Huayao Corporation.
Suddenly, the office door opened, and the tall lady walked in flustered.
Pointing at the open door, she said, “Miss Shen, I’ve completed the investigation. The other candidates were all driven away by that man outside, his name is Guan Tong, and he pretended to be the interviewer.”
She was seething as she reported her findings. It was unbelievably audacious for someone to undermine their recruitment process under the guise of being an interviewer. This act was unacceptable, and it could be brought to court to seek compensation for bringing disrepute to its corporate image, not to mention the act of trying to deceive prospective employees within the company’s premises.
“Call him in!”
Shen Qingyan returned her seat. There were no emotions on her face, and Xiao Luo couldn’t tell how she felt.
Xiao Luo was worried about Guan Tong, for, if something similar to this were to happen at Luo Workshop, he would surely not take it easy on that person.
“Guan Tong, come in!”
The tall woman shouted for Guan Tong through the open door, making no effort to conceal her displeasure toward him for daring to play such tricks with the Huayao Corporation.
Guan Tong had been waiting anxiously outside the office. Hearing his name being called, he meekly stepped through the door with a sheepish smile.
“Good day, Miss Shen. My name is Guan Tong, ‘Guan’ as in ‘person in charge,’ and ‘Wu’ as in ‘Phoenix Tree,’ oh, wait… it’s ‘Tong’ as in ‘Phoenix Tree,’ hehe…”
Guan Tong introduced himself pompously, as he had practiced many times before the interview, but this time, his nervousness was betrayed by a Freudian slip, and he ended his introduction with an awkward smile.
“My day isn’t good at all!”
Shen Qingyan responded with a sardonic smile and said, “You drove off all the other candidates by playing your petty tricks right here in my company’s premises. I’m in a terrible mood right now!”
Gulp…!
Guan Tong froze. When he glanced at the tall lady, he found her glaring at him, too, in the most hostile way. Guan Tong began to feel an immense pressure building up inside and started breaking out in cold sweat. “Miss Shen, I-I, err…” he stuttered.
Shen Qingyan waved her hand impatiently and asked him, “Tell me, how did you drive them away? The more detailed, the better!” Then turning to her assistant, she said, “Miss He, get me a glass of water.”
“Yes, Miss Shen.”
The tall woman responded and immediately walked to the water dispenser at the corner of the office.
Guan Tong wiped off the sweat running down his forehead and did not dare not utter a word until the tall lady had returned with the glass of water. By, then he had organized his thoughts, and only after Shen Qingyan had taken the glass of water from her assistant and began sipping on it did Guan Tong recount everything that happened in the lounge.
When Shen Qingyan heard about how Guan Tong had impersonated the interviewer and how he rejected the candidates with the most ridiculous reasons she had ever heard, she couldn’t contain her laughter. Then, she stood up, looked at Guan Tong with a sparkle in her eyes, and said, “What a true talent you are! You’ve eliminated all your competitors with this little trick of yours… very suited for our sales consultant position.”
Upon hearing that, Guan Tong was elated and cried, “Huh, Miss Shen, do you mean that I’ve passed the interview and can now work for Huayao?”
Shen Qingyan smiled and shook her head. “No,” she replied, then turning to the tall lady, she said, “Miss He, notify the Legal Department at once. Sue him for interrupting the company’s business activities and damaging our reputation for 5 million dollars.”
Huh?!
Guan Tong’s eyes nearly popped out, and in that very instant, he finally understood the quote, ‘life is a roller coaster.’ Feeling like he was about to lose control of his bladder, he pleaded with Shen Qingyan, stammering, “M-miss Shen, w-why… you’re mistaken. I’m…”
BAM!
Shen Qingyan slammed her desk as she looked sternly at him and said, “A jobseeker like you resorting to such shameless trickery, pretending to be an interviewer and driving off the other candidates, your actions are despicable and indefensible. This cannot be forgiven; you have treated my company with disrespect!”
The tall lady was delighted to hear that as she couldn’t stand the sight of Guan Tong, whom she found revolting and felt he had to be punished.
“Miss Shen, don’t do this, please! It… it’s only because I want to join Huayao so badly, please…”
Guan Tong knew he had gone overboard, and he now found himself in a quagmire of his own making. He never thought that he’d get slapped with a lawsuit, and even worse, sued by a company as large as the Huayao Corporation. He felt that the sky falling, and to him, it was the end of days.
…
“Xiao Luo, we meet again!”
Xiao Luo had been invited into the office alone, and when he stepped in, Shen Qingyan stood up from her chair and welcomed him with a charming smile.
