Kong Zhao smiled. Fortunately, in order to make it easier for her to apply for the job, she had gone to the print shop and sent out 10 resumes at once.
At this moment, she calmly took out her resume and presented it to the leaders present. She said confidently, "My resume has already clarified my experience and the researches that I helped the teachers with in school."
There was a director of the design department present. When he saw Kong Zhao's resume and some of the participating works that were attached at the back, he nodded in satisfaction and commented on the spot, "Miss Kong's works are very creative and she is indeed worth nurturing. From her experience, Miss Kong's theoretical knowledge is also rich. It's normal for her to be able to answer this paper."
When the others saw the resume, they agreed.
Now that everyone had almost confirmed Kong Zhao's strength, Lin Lin's expression froze.
She definitely couldn't be fired. The CF Group gave employees good benefits and had a good reputation. If others knew that she worked here, they would think highly of her. Hence, her expression changed as she apologized to Kong Zhao. "I'm sorry. It seems like I was too rash."
Lin Lin wanted to turn her slandering of Kong Zhao seem like an innocent mistake. This way, at most, even if she couldn't stay in the main company, she would be sent to the subsidiary company. At least, she would have a chance to return.
However, Yan Song, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly said, "You were alumni of the same school in the past. Lin Lin, for the third-year scholarship spot, you happened to be ranked behind Miss Kong."
When Lin Lin heard this, she knew that the company had already investigated it. Her face turned pale.
Every school year, S University would give each grade 10 scholarship slots, regardless of their faculty.
Lin Lin and Kong Zhao were there every year, but in their third year, when the scholarship spot was announced, Lin Lin realized that her name wasn't on it, so she privately asked the counselor. Only then did she find out that she was ranked 11th.
Lin Lin had once heard that Kong Zhao's family was very rich. She was the eldest daughter of the Kong Real Estate Group. In the past, she had seen a luxury car pick her up from school a few times.
She thought that Kong Zhao wasn't short of money and definitely wouldn't care about the scholarship, so she found Kong Zhao and wanted to persuade her to voluntarily withdraw from the scholarship competition.
However, because of Mrs. Li's illness, Kong Zhao urgently needed this scholarship money. It was a private matter after all, so she naturally wouldn't explain that much to Lin Lin. She only expressed that she wouldn't withdraw from the scholarship that she had obtained based on her own capabilities.
She didn't expect Lin Lin to bear a grudge against her. Lin Lin felt that since Kong Zhao's family was rich, she just wanted a good reputation for beng a good student. That was why she competed for a scholarship every year. She might have even cheated. Hence, she reported Kong Zhao anonymously.
At that time, it was still during the scholarship notice period. If someone reported it, the school naturally had to investigate in detail.
Many people knew that Kong Zhao was good at her studies and had seen her designs. In addition, many investigations showed that her grades were authentic. Only then did she regain her innocence.
After that, Kong Zhao accidentally found out that the person who had anonymously reported her was Lin Lin. However, because this matter had already been settled and she had to spend time taking care of Mrs. Li, she didn't pursue the matter. She didn't expect Lin Lin to start playing tricks again.
Lin Lin thought about how she had reported it anonymously at that time and thought that no one would know. Hence, she frowned and said helplessly, "Actually, Kong Zhao had a reputation for cheating in school before! Although the school said that she didn't cheat, there's no smoke without fire. Since someone reported it at that time, it means that there was still something suspicious. I did this because I didn't want the company to recruit a person with a bad character. But no matter what, it's my fault for hiding this matter."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's attention turned to Kong Zhao.
Kong Zhao was enraged when she heard that Lin Lin was still slandering her. She had yet to settle scores with her for what happened last time!
Therefore, she couldn't help but step forward and give her a loud slap. Then, she said calmly, "I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to show that one is enough to tango!"
Lin Lin was completely stunned. No one expected Kong Zhao to attack. They only came back to their senses after hearing a burst of laughter.
Yan Song chuckled and said, "I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that this example is very vivid!"
She was in someone else's place, and Kong Zhao only remembered that she might be pulled out by the security guard after slapping her on impulse.
Now that she saw Yan Song's reaction, she calmed down. "You suspect that I cheated, but I've already given you the answer just now. Did you have any evidence when I asked you? I don't know who is the one who has bad character, but I suspect that you're using your position to take personal revenge."
Lin Lin immediately retorted, "Nonsense, I didn't!"
