179: Chapter 156: Silently Gazing, His Affection is as Deep as the Sea_1 179: Chapter 156: Silently Gazing, His Affection is as Deep as the Sea_1 The headquarters of the Qihang Group was quite close to KING Group, not more than a ten minutes car ride away.
This surprised Nanxi.
The woman in charge of receiving them was in her thirties, and she introduced herself as the leader of Group A in the Publicity Department, surname Qin!
She led the dozen or so interviewees to the entrance of a room, telling them to enter for the interview as soon as they heard their names.
One at a time, in order!
After that, she left.
The sound of her thin heeled shoes on the marble floor was surprisingly pleasant.
She had the air of a white-collar worker about her.
And truthfully, the Qihang Group wasnât very small overall.
Nanxi thought it was rather good.
Han Baobao grabbed Nanxiâs arm, asking her, âWhat kind of questions do you think theyâll ask us?â
Nanxi shook her head, âI donât know.â
Han Baobao said, âI see.
But, no matter what they ask, I am not afraid.
I think I will definitely get the job.
Nanxi, you must do well too.
If I get accepted but you donât, it wouldnât be fun in this small company without you!â
Nanxi chuckled awkwardly but said nothing!
â¦
In the CEOâs office of Qihang Group, a man sat on the sofa, looking a bit lethargic.
His thin lips were pursed into a line.
Finally, they curled up ever so slightly when he looked at the serious young woman on the big screen.
The screen wasnât very clear, but he noticed every one of the girlâs actions and remembered them in his heart!
The boss of Qihang Group, Ji Du, was forty-three years old.
He had met this famously successful H City investor, Lu Yinchu, less than forty minutes ago.
After all, Ji Du was in his forties â a man who had lived half his life and experienced incomparable things.
He understood somewhat how the world worked and had his own way of seeing people and judging situations!
But at this moment, facing this man who was over ten years younger than him, he felt somewhat at a loss!
He had lived for forty years, met various business partners, but only Lu Yinchu made him feel apprehensive!
He pushed the contract in his hand towards Lu Yinchu, âMr.
Lu, you seeâ¦â
âThereâs no rush!â The manâs voice was cold.
Ji Du was taken aback, then drew back his hand, his eyes following the manâs gaze to the screen!
Since the camera had switched on, Lu Yinchuâs gaze hadnât strayed from the TV screen!
Among the dozens of young people who came for interviews on the screen, some were male, and most were female.
He thought Lu Yinchu was just looking at people, but who exactly he was watching, he had no idea!
To be honest, Ji Du still didnât understand why KING Group wanted to cooperate with his company.
Although the Qihang Groupâs distance from KING Group wasnât very far, his company was viewed as an entirely different class compared to KINGâs, so their interactions were quite limited.
Even if there was slight cooperation, it was always with a subsidiary of KING Group and its person in charge.
When did it ever involve Lu Yinchu personally!
But just yesterday afternoon, after Ji Du came back to the company from a business meeting, his secretary told him that the CEOâs office of KING Group had called, requesting a meeting to discuss an investment contract!
Ji Du thought he had heard wrong.
He was well aware of KING Groupâs caliber.
In H City, if KING Group is the second, no one would dare to claim the first.
The line to cooperate with KING would circle thrice around the block.
His medium-sized company had no chance!
Looking at Lu Yinchu now, he could only guess that it might have something to do with the dozen new applicants who came for interviews today.
But who specifically?
He wasnât sure â it gave him a headache!
Ji Du stood up and smiled at Lu Yinchu, âMr.
Lu, please sit.
Iâll excuse myself for a bit!â
The man seemed to not notice, giving no answer or response.
Ji Du felt a little awkward, but he didnât mind and left the office!
In the restroom, Ji Du called the Human Resources Department and ordered them to hire all the people who came for interviews today!
The HR Department was also surprised.
Today, the Qihang Groupâs interviews only had a quota of five accepted applicants.
But seventeen people came for interviews.
Hire them all?
What did the Boss mean by this.
.
.
?
But no matter what the boss meant, they had to listen.
Because the bossâs request was the companyâs command!
â¦
When Nanxi and Han Baobao came out of the interviews, their feelings didnât change much.
The interview results would be notified in three days.
Han Baobao was not worried at all, but Nanxi felt a bit anxious.
Actually, itâs understandable why she felt worried.
The questions during the interview were all so odd.
Like which relatives she had at home, and what were their surnamesâ¦
This kind of question appearing in an interview came as a complete surprise!
Nanxi was incredibly surprised!
Han Baobao was thrilled and wanted to treat Nanxi to lunch.
Nanxi agreed.
Sometimes, Nanxi thought Han Baobao was quite a good person, even though Yang Su and Lan Qiqi didnât like her!
The two of them came to a hot pot restaurant and took a small seat in the corner.
They arrived early, so there werenât a lot of people in the hot pot restaurant.
Han Baobao ordered a mixed broth hot pot because she knew Nanxi canât eat spicy foods!
Nanxi was quite grateful deep down.
Han Baobao wanted to drink alcohol, but Nanxi tried to dissuade her, âWhat if you get drunk?â
Han Baobao replied, âItâs fine.
I ordered beer, I wonât get drunk.
And even if I do, Iâll call my brother to pick us up.
Donât worry!â
âBut arenât you defending your thesis tomorrow?
You shouldnât drink today!â
âWhat does tomorrowâs thesis defense have to do with today?â Han Baobao pursed her lips, âI donât care, I want to drink, I must drink!â
âThen have a little, not too much.
Itâs not good for girls to drink too much,â Nanxi gave in, finally speaking.
Han Baobao nodded, âDonât worry, I know my limits!â
Throughout the hot pot meal, Han Baobao was quite busy making phone calls.
One of the calls seemed to be from Liu Yang, who was at the dinner party last time.
Nanxi remembered.
He was pursuing Han Baobao at that time and even said something.
Because of that sentence, Han Baobao despised him!
But didnât she despise him?
Why was he still calling?
Nanxi didnât understand!
Nanxi heard Han Baobao saying, âIâm defending my thesis, not attending an award ceremony.
Why would you send flowersâ¦
No, not even roses.
I donât want any.
Anyway, donât come overâ¦â
Nanxi: ââ¦â
Han Baobao hung up the phone, her tone upset, and told Liu Yang not to contact her for the time being!
Nanxi coughed lightly.
She thought it was better not to inquire about other peopleâs love affairs.
So, she stuck to her bowl of beef and enjoyed the hot pot!
Although she didnât ask Han Baobao, it didnât mean Han Baobao wouldnât ask her.
Han Baobao sighed, âI really feel that these young boys are pointless.
Theyâre all so immature.
Only men who are at least twenty-seven or eight, or beyond thirty, are charming, right, Nanxi?â
ââ¦â She laughed awkwardly, really not knowing how to respond!
Han Baobao said, âNanxi, Iâm really envious of you.
You had a chance to meet an exemplary man like Lu Yinchuâ¦â
âBaobaoâ¦â Nanxi didnât know how to explain, âBaobao, you misunderstand, my relationship with Mr.
Lu isnât what you thinkâ¦â
âI understandâ¦â Han Baobao waved a hand, signaling her not to speak any furtherâ¦
