Chapter 175 - Even if she was only his wife in name, she must have saved the world in her last life to have such good fortune! (3)
Song Tingshen nodded. "Moreover, based on my understanding of He Fei, he cares about his younger sister a lot. Also, He Fei's family members aren't simple people. They had probably already investigated my cousin after their first contact. Not everyone is an idiot. My great-aunt's family always think they can play others for fools. They failed to consider that for He Fei's dad and He Fei to be in the position they are today, they have to be more shrewd thinkers than them. My great-aunt's family aren't a match for the He's. That's why I'm not worried at all who will be the ones suffering a loss in the end. Greedy people with impure purposes usually don't have good endings."
After being educated by Song Tingshen, Ruan Xia got the urge to tease him. "Then do you think I'll have a good ending?"
Song Tingshen didn't immediately get her meaning. By the time he noticed her wicked smile, he could only helplessly say, "I didn't mean you."
"I didn't say you were insinuating anything. I'm asking you. Do you think I'll have a good ending?"
Song Tingshen looked down at the steak on his plate, and he looked back up at her. He seriously said, "You will."
Ruan Xia raised her cup and touched his cup with it, making a clear clinking sound. "Hope everything you say will come true."
When they returned from Song Tingshen's hometown, Ruan Xia discovered that he really had a lucky koi physique. He said good things will happen to her, and she received an email right after National Day Golden Week ended.
Ruan Xia had said she wanted to find a job because she didn't want to get too used to this indolent lifestyle. However, since she didn't lack money and wanted to improve her spoken English and learn baking, looking for a job had been low on her priorities. She had submitted her resume and gotten phone interviews, but she hadn't been attracted to any of the companies that contacted her.
A long time had passed since then, and she actually got an email for an interview today. Most importantly, this company's position was simply tailor-made for her!
First, this company was very close to her home. Ruan Xia checked the commute. It would only take ten minutes to get there by car, and this area rarely had traffic jams.
Second, the job ad said this was a position in an overseas department. Due to time zone differences, the company gave the employee freedom over their work hours as long as they finished the assigned tasks.
Lastly, the salary would be discussed during the office interview, but it was already clearly written in the email that in addition to a basic salary, there were bonuses, accommodation subsidies, meal subsidies, and the schedule was five days a week.
Although the email didn't clearly state the salary, the subsidies alone added up two thousand yuan! This was the most generous company that Ruan Xia had ever seen!
With the subsidies being so high, the salary and bonus probably wouldn't be small.
Moreover, this company was established a short while ago. It didn't have many employees, so the interpersonal relationship should be relatively simple. A job with a high salary and close to home. Although Ruan Xia hadn't seen the company yet, she was already very interested.
Anyways, she didn't have anything to do tomorrow. She might as well go for an interview. If it went well, it would be fine for her to go work!
She had been learning spoken english with a foreigner teacher for a while. It was time to put what she had learned to use. She could also change the time for her spoken English class. As for her baking class, she could move that around too...
Ruan Xia thought Song Tingshen was truly a lucky koi.
In a cheerful mood and up for a little bit of mischievous fun, she changed Song Tingshen's name on her phone to Lucky Koi Song on the various contact methods.
Translator Ramblings: It seems weird that Ruan Xia doesn't question why she would get an interview for a high-paying job that has such good benefits. The original owner has almost no work history. Ruan Xia has been taking lessons for spoken English for a very long time, but the English vocabulary she would need to know for work is very different from the conversational English she's been working on. Plus, it doesn't seem rigorous. They're just informal lessons that give her confidence. I don't think it would give her an edge in the job market.
It would have made a lot more sense if Ruan Xia was hired for a receptionist position. The original owner has a relevant experience for that and its forward-facing job where good looks would be a plus.
I wonder if this is Li Yuanhang's friend's company, the one where he got Li Jing a job at. If Song Tingshen isn't behind this job, this job seems too good to be true and very shady. For someone with work experience, Ruan Xia's naivety and lack of skepticism seems out-of-character.
What do you guys think? Would you find this job's terms too good to be true? Or is it within the bounds of lucky break?
