Chapter 28 - Miss Grandet

CF also had a jewelry chain. Cheng Fang had a good understanding of all kinds of gems and jade. When he heard Kong Zhao questioning him, he raised her chin with his index finger. "How dare you suspect your husband?"

Kong Zhao slapped Cheng Fang's hand away angrily and took back the jade bracelet. She turned on the flashlight and looked at it again. However, as an amateur, she naturally didn't discern anything and could only put it back into her bag.

Cheng Fang saw the part-time jobs website on Kong Zhao's laptop and asked, "Are you looking for a part-time job?"

Kong Zhao nodded weakly. "That's right. I've been sending my resumes for a week now. Not to mention asking me for a design, there's not even a single private message. Sigh, there's more candidates than available jobs!"

Cheng Fang asked again, "Do you only design clothes?"

Kong Zhao continued to flip through the jobs posted on the part-time website. Without turning back, she said, "I can do both graphic design and trademark logos."

As she spoke, she accidentally saw the mint candy on the table. Kong Zhao joked, "Do I have to use the power of metaphysics again?" With that, she reached out and took one and put it into her mouth.

Cheng Fang smiled when he saw this.

When Kong Zhao came out of the shower, she saw that Cheng Fang was still playing with his phone on the sofa. She planned to walk around him to get her computer and return to her room.

Suddenly, two private messages on the computer attracted her attention.

Kong Zhao couldn't care less about anything else. She immediately sat on the ground in front of the coffee table and opened it. Other than a message, there was also a link to the work she had placed on the website.

SM: Hello, I like the design of the food package in your link. Our company is in the restaurant business. Can we accept the package design for the company's logo, five take-out box designs, and a bag for 30,000?

Kong Zhao had almost lost hope in this part-time job. When she saw this task, she couldn't help but mutter, "There's always a way out!" She glanced at the gender in the other party's account information and immediately typed on the keyboard.

Kong Zhao: Hello, sir. I can accept it. What requests do you have?

SM: I'll send you the document. There are relevant measurements in it. As long as the five series have their own characteristics, according to the style inside the link.

Kong Zhao: "Okay, when do you want it?"

SM: Can it be submitted within a month?

This was the first time Kong Zhao had met a client who could discuss the time to submit the proposal, and the request was so simple. He replied immediately.

Kong Zhao: Yes!

Cheng Fang thought about how cautious Kong Zhao was when she rented the house and changed the words "pay in full" to "pay half first."

SM: I'll pay half the deposit first and the other half will be paid. Change the price of the order.

When Kong Zhao saw that the price was high and it was so easily obtained, she didn't dare to accept the deposit.

Kong Zhao: Sir, why don't I design the first draft for you to see? If you think it's okay, you can give me the deposit.

SM: No need. I trust my judgment. As long as the link is your original design, that's the effect I want.

Kong Zhao felt impressed by his genorosity!

Thus, she no longer hesitated. If she didn't pass the first draft, at most, she would return the money to him. It wouldn't let down his confident in her.

Kong Zhao changed the price of the next order on her website. A minute later, she saw the other party's final order.

Kong Zhao stood up in a daze and sat on the sofa. With a look of disbelief, she turned around and said to Cheng Fang, "During the time I took a shower, I received an order. Moreover, that boss was so easygoing. He directly paid me a deposit of 15,000 yuan!"

After Kong Zhao finished speaking, she covered her face with her hands. "I really believe in your lucky candy this time!"

Cheng Fang was amused by the cute look on Kong Zhao's face. He caressed Kong Zhao's hair. "Why do you always look like you're short of money? I see that you don't spend much money usually, and the clothes you buy are all ordinary brands."

Kong Zhao was stunned when she heard this. Kong Rong wasn't short of money, but she was short of money! "There's no one in this world who doesn't lack money. I definitely lack money too."

Then, she said in all seriousness, "Have you forgotten that I'm Grandet now?!"

Cheng Fang said dotingly, "Alright, Miss Grandet. How much more do you need? I'll earn money for you!"

After Kong Zhao stood up and picked up her computer, she smiled as she said, "I'm a person with principles. Am I the kind of person who takes advantage of her roommate?"

After saying that, Kong Zhao hummed a tune as she returned to her room. Naturally, she didn't see the gloomy expression on the man's face when he heard the word roommate.

After Cheng Fang took out a cigarette and lit it, he took a few deep whiffs and stared blankly at the flickering cigarette butt.

In the beginning, he had no choice but to marry Kong Zhao, but now, he couldn't wait to rush home every day after work. After his mother died, Kong Zhao gave Cheng Fang the feeling of having a family.
