Lin Yao remembered that there was a rag in the corner of Lin Yun's office, which meant that Lin Yun probably did the cleaning before. So now, as the only employee of Lingyun Industry...
However, when Lin Yao returned to the office with a wet rag, she was dumbfounded.
This office was about 600 square meters, and Lingyun Industry didn't have just one office. There was also a conference room, a finance department, Lin Yun's office... Wait, how come there was a chairman's office over there as well?
"Ring, ring!" Three telephones rang at the same time, and Lin Yao, who was struggling to wipe the table, was caught off guard.
"Hello, hello! This is Lingyun Industry."
The young girl at the end of the phone spoke Mandarin with a northeast accent. "Hello! I wanted to ask, where is the company situated?"
"We are at the Yueyang Building, which is on Stadium Road at the intersection of Huancheng East Road."
When Lin Yun walked into the office, she saw Xiao Lin answering the phone with a damp rag in her hand.
The office was quiet, and the voice of the girl on the other end of the phone was clear and audible.
"I'm on Pinghai Road. Which bus route should I take to get there?"
Lin Yun stopped, and she thought about how she would respond if someone asked her this. She wouldn't know how to answer, so did Xiao Lin know?
Lin Yao didn't notice that Lin Yun was right behind her. She asked the other person, "What bus routes are there?"
"Well, let me see. There are routes 7, 12, 25, 59…"
The other person said a lot of numbers. Lin Yun had never taken a bus in her entire life. Naturally, the more she listened, the more bewildered she felt.
But Lin Yao was different. She had been studying and working in Hangzhou for many years. Although she had little money in her pockets, she was especially fond of walking around. After these past few years, there really wasn't a bus line in Hangzhou that she didn't know about.
The bus routes that the other person just said either went south, north, or around the Huanxi Lake tourist route. None of the buses headed towards the Huancheng East Road.
After thinking over it for a while, Lin Yao replied, "Then you may need to change routes. We are about 350 meters east of Baoshan Bridge and about 500 meters south of Huancheng East Road. My suggestion for you is to take Bus Route No. 12, transfer to Chaohui Road 44, then get off at Huancheng East Road and walk about 500 meters south. Then you will arrive at the Yueyang Building, and we are on the 26th floor. "
Lin Yun was stunned, and she gave Xiao Lin a thumbs up inside.
Lin Yao didn't know that besides having an extraordinary appetite and not being a picky eater, she also knew Hang City's bus routes by heart because she loved window shopping. She once again received Lin Yun's "admiration."
"You're welcome to come over for an interview. See you later!"
Lin Yao hung up the phone and discovered that Lin Yun was standing right beside her.
Lin Yun wore a simple black wool dress, and her long, waist-length hair spilled behind her back. She wore a light brown beret on her head, and she carried a large handbag of the same color with a bright triangular logo on it. Her entire outfit made it seem as if she had just walked out of a fashion magazine—she looked absolutely glamorous!
Lin Yao couldn't help but glance at her again, and she noticed that Lin Yun was also looking at her as well. Lin Yao quickly stood up and said energetically, "Director Lin, good morning!"
"Good morning!" Lin Yun glanced at the rag in her hand and asked, "Did you clean my desk for me?"
Lin Yao replied loudly, "Your desk has been cleaned, and I also opened your office windows to freshen the air."
"Thank you!"
Lin Yun walked back to her office and smiled back at her.
Upon seeing Lin Yun's smiling face, Lin Yao couldn't help but remember that just a few days ago when she was still at Tianfeng Company, she had been scowled by a so-called "vice president." He used his connections to get into the company and did nothing other than berate the other workers.
Ever since she entered Lingyun Industry, everything seemed so different.
And…
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Lin Yao's head. She stared at the wet rag in her hand in disbelief. Could it be that wiping desks was a tactic that really worked?
Lin Yao decided to make more persistent efforts and proceeded to wipe all the remaining desks in the Grand Office!
At 9:50, after Lin Yao finished wiping all the tables and washed the rag, Lingyun Industry welcomed their second job seeker. It was a girl with raven-black hair, snow-white skin, and a pair of phoenix eyes. She was a girl with the features of a classical beauty.
"Hello there."
Lin Yao got up and said, "Hello! Please, come this way for the interview."
Lin Yao went to the door of Lin Yun's office and raised her hand to knock.
"Please come in."
After the door opened, Lin Yao saw that Lin Yun was standing by the window as she was smoking. Lin Yun then looked back and smiled. How alluring and magnificent!
After sending the job seeker to Lin Yun's office, Lin Yao considered her task to be complete, so she returned to her seat to continue answering the phone.
******
Lingyun Industry's job ad had been in the newspaper for a week straight, so there had been continuous calls from job seekers over the past few days. There were also many job applicants coming in for interviews.
Lin Yun was in charge of the interview, and Lin Yao's main job was still to answer the call, so both of them were extremely busy.
What surprised Lin Yao was that in the afternoon, Lin Yun specifically requested to speak with her.
Lin Yun took a deep breath and said, "Xiao Lin, I am very thankful that you helped me clean the desks today! But…"
But what?
Lin Yao was anxiously waiting to hear what came next.
She has read the resumes of the job applicants and knew that compared to their qualifications, hers wasn't good at all. Her level of education wasn't that high, her English was average, and she even lied about her height a little. The most important thing was that she was also fired from her previous company!
The Tianfeng Company was located in an old office building on Huancheng East Road, not that far from the Yueyang Building. If Lin Yun was interested, it wasn't that difficult to find out about her previous work history.
If Lin Yunzhen called the Tianfeng Company to better understand the situation, the colleagues there would probably have nothing pleasant to say about her.
Lin Yao kept letting her imagination run wild, and the more she thought about it, the more anxious she felt.
Lin Yun smoked a cigarette as she said slowly, "I didn't ask you to come here to do things like that, so don't do that next time."
Don't do that...
Lin Yao froze, and she thought with exasperation. It seemed like she was about to set a record of being fired from two different companies within three days.
Lin Yun took out several business cards from the cabinet and handed them to Lin Yao. "We accumulated these customer files over many years, and as for the rest you will... work hard."
Lin Yao held the business card book dazedly, and it took her awhile to realize that Lin Yun didn't mean to fire her!
In the span of just a few minutes, Lin Yao's emotions went up and down like a roller coaster.
Before she could voice her thoughts, she heard Lin Yun say, "I wanted to tell you that you only need to do your job in the future, and don't let trivial matters take up your work time."
Boom! As if a barrel of hot oil had been poured onto a fire, Lin Yao's entire face grew bright red.
In reality, Lin Yun understood the real reason why Lin Yao worked so hard to clean the desks.
Perhaps the supervisors at the Tianfeng Company would appreciate Lin Yao doing this, but Lin Yun was obviously different from them.
An old proverb said that one man's meat was another man's poison!
