Chapter 95 - 95 Luo Yan wants to meet offline

Of course, there's also a break room in the office area on the 29th floor.

Employee interviews are on the 15th floor.

When Zhao Tianhao arrived on the 15th floor, he found Wendy, who was with Jiang Xiaoguo, had already gone inside.

Seeing Jiang Xiaoguo looking worriedly at the interview room, Zhao Tianhao knew that the two of them had become good friends after all.

Zhao Tianhao walked to the door of the interview room, glanced inside, but didn't intend to go in.

"Uncle, are you here for an interview too? Are you nervous?" Jiang Xiaoguo had somehow slipped up to Zhao Tianhao and asked, looking at him.

"Me?" Zhao Tianhao couldn't believe his ears; the uncle was calling him.

Seeing Zhao Tianhao turn around, Jiang Xiaoguo was stunned, firstly because this uncle was very handsome, and secondly, because she recognized him.

She remembered the uncle who helped her get 300 yuan at the mall last time.

"Uncle, it's you! Thank you so much for standing up for me last time. I... I've been wanting to thank you for coming, but I didn't have your contact information. Thank you again. I'll treat you to dinner after the interview."

"It's nothing, it wasn't your fault. I was just sticking to what's right, not my family. Okay, let's talk about gratitude later. You're here for an interview," Zhao Tianhao changed the subject.

And Jiang Xiaoguo didn't even recognize him.

This silly girl comes to an interview without even reading the company profile?

The boss is standing right in front of her and she doesn't recognize him, and she wants to treat him to dinner.

"How can we talk about it later? No, I have to treat you to dinner, otherwise I'll feel bad." 

"Okay, then let's wait for the interview results. If you pass, you treat, consider it a celebration. If you don't pass, I'll treat, consider it consolation." Zhao Tianhao didn't argue with her anymore.

"Okay, it's a deal. Hey, sir, are you from this company? I think you used to be the general manager of a shopping mall. You didn't switch jobs, did you?" Jiang Xiaoguo asked, her imagination running wild.

Zhao Tianhao was speechless.

"You said you were the general manager, why would a general manager switch jobs?"

"Switch my foot!" Zhao Tianhao wanted to swear.

"Don't you read the company profile when you apply? Do you think this company won't hire you? You don't seem like someone who lacks confidence."

"Well, it depends on the company. I just asked about their education, and they're all graduates from 985 and 211 universities. It's making me lose confidence."

"Education and academic experience aren't really that important, they're just a threshold. Generally, it's your professional skills that matter. Alright, I'm going in now. I look forward to your interview." With that, Zhao Tianhao walked into the interview room.

Jiang Xiaoguo watched Zhao Tianhao enter the interview room. Before she could even express her surprise that Zhao Tianhao was one of the interviewers, she heard the announcement from inside.

"Next, Jiang Xiaoguo."

"Huh?"

Jiang Xiaoguo heard her own voice and relaxed as she went in, assuming the older man would give her a break.

Meanwhile, after Zhao Tianhao entered, the interviewers quickly made room for him.

After sitting down, Zhao Tianhao found Jiang Xiaoguo and gestured for her to come in.

When Jiang Xiaoguo entered and saw Zhao Tianhao sitting in the middle, she felt much more at ease. "Hello, interviewers."

"Please introduce yourself," said one of the interviewers beside her.

Zhao Tianhao looked at Jiang Xiaoguo. The teasing look in his eyes was taken as encouragement by Jiang Xiaoguo.

Jiang Xiaoguo relaxed and began her introduction; she already believed she had passed the interview.

"My name is Jiang Xiaoguo. I graduated from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. I received a scholarship in the college entrance examination, ranking first in my grade for three consecutive years, and also received the National Scholarship for three consecutive years. This year, I interned at a well-known public account in the financial field, accumulating rich experience and writing many articles with over 100,000 views."

After Jiang Xiaoguo finished speaking, Zhao Tianhao said, "All of this is worthless to me. I'll ask you a few professional questions."

Jiang Xiaoguo, unaware of anything amiss, replied, "Okay."

"In the 24 hours before the interview, what domestic companies' news did you follow? In your opinion, in which region of Asia should Haotian Investment Company make targeted investments? Do you think the rise of Haotian Group will put pressure on Tencent and Alibaba, and could they be jointly suppressed? What countermeasures should be taken?"

Jiang Xiaoguo was completely stumped. "What, can't answer?" Zhao Tianhao was just teasing her. Well, it wasn't teasing anymore; it was downright difficult.

"You can leave now. Wait for our notification." Zhao Tianhao got up and left.

Jiang Xiaoguo didn't even know how she left the room. Dazed and confused, she was rendered speechless by Zhao Tianhao's questions.

"Why is this uncle like this? Wasn't he supposed to help her? It seems like his presence has only made things harder."

She felt hopeless about the interview.

Besides, Zhao Tianhao had given her his contact information, and she wanted to confront him. Of course, one thing is one thing; even though Zhao Tianhao had ruined her job, she still wanted to thank him for treating her to dinner.

But why did she feel so angry? He was the one who bullied her, yet she felt like she should thank him.

"I hate him! Bad uncle, stinky uncle!" Jiang Xiaoguo muttered to herself, referring to the culprit who had made her interview so hopeless.

While complaining about Zhao Tianhao, Jiang Xiaoguo kicked around the pebbles under her feet, as if she were Zhao Tianhao herself, as if she had already tormented him. She walked hopelessly back to her dormitory.

Zhao Tianhao had come down to see Jiang Xiaoguo, and now that he had, he returned to his office.

Not long after returning to his office, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw it was a message from Luo Yan.

"I probably won't have much time to play games anymore, (crying)"

"What's wrong?"

"My mom gave me two choices: either take the postgraduate entrance exam or study abroad."

"Both are good."

"But I don't want either. I just want to stay home and play games."

"You have to choose your own path; no one can help you."

"I know, brother, but I really don't want either. Do you think I'm hopeless?"

"You really are hopeless. Although I won't comfort you with things like 'your mom is doing this for your own good,' you're an adult. You have the ability to judge right from wrong. If you don't want to choose either, you can find a choice yourself."

"Brother, can't people just live carefree?"

Zhao Tianhao couldn't reply to this. There's no such thing as a carefree life. Even Zhao Tianhao has his troubles.

He wants to return to his own world. Because there are people he cares about in that world.

"I think you really just want to ignore everything and play games. Do you even know what it means to live?"

"Hehe, I really don't. It's enough that you do. Brother, when are we going to meet?"

After sending this message, Luo Yan sat on the table, nervously closing her eyes. She didn't dare look at her phone screen, afraid of being rejected by Zhao Tianhao.

Zhao Tianhao smiled when he saw this. So this was what he was waiting for.

Zhao Tianhao thought about how he hadn't had much to do lately.

Haotian Group had already hired someone to handle things, so Zhao Tianhao was much more relaxed.

Basically, it was just signing documents and making decisions. In short, he could have more time to play with women.

"Okay, I've been free recently."

"Then, let's meet tomorrow." Hearing the phone notification, Luo Yan quickly opened her eyes. Seeing Zhao Tianhao's agreement, she was very excited.

"Yay! Yay! Yay!" Duan Jiabao asked curiously, "What's making you so excited, Shitou?"

 "Hehe, I'll tell you in a bit."

"You can choose the location." Zhao Tianhao was worried that if he booked a high-end restaurant, Luo Yan, being a girl, would feel too formal and pressured. Letting her choose a place she was familiar with would make her feel more at ease.

After all, Zhao Tianhao knew her, but she didn't. For a girl, there's bound to be some wariness.

"Okay, I'll book the table and send it to you." Luo Yan didn't think much of it; she was already immersed in the joy of meeting Zhao Tianhao in person.

Ever since Luo Yan and Zhao Tianhao played a few games together, Luo Yan didn't know why, but she especially enjoyed those times, enjoying listening to Zhao Tianhao's voice.

She liked Zhao Tianhao's cool gameplay.

Every time Zhao Tianhao said he was busy and couldn't play games with her, she would be very sad.

Even her favorite games became boring.

Having never been in a relationship before, she didn't know what was wrong with her. But her longing to see Zhao Tianhao grew stronger and stronger.
