C9 Looking for a Job

Chu Hee descended from the upper floor and swiftly made his exit. The female receptionist at the front desk watched him with wide-open eyes as he passed by.

He actually managed to make Director Wai come back to receive him. His status must be very prestigious.

The receptionist thought about her actions just now, and she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

After leaving Hengtian Real Estate Corporation, Chu Hee went straight home.

As for Wai Guoqiang, he didn't dare disobey his orders.

As soon as Chu Hee entered, he saw his mother-in-law tidying up the dining table. They had just finished their meal.

Lee Min did not care about Chu Hee at all. She immediately threw away the leftover food and rice, and imperiously said, "Chu Hee, wash the dishes."

She then went straight to the living room and sat on the sofa, cracking open some melon seeds and watching TV.

Chu Hee peeked at the bedroom door, which was still tightly closed, and didn't want to disturb Xue.

With something like this happening, Xue would definitely keep it a secret from him.

He turned and went into the kitchen, cleaned up the dishes and cutlery, and while taking out the trash, he also looked for a noodle shop to fill his stomach.

He had barely taken a few bites when his phone suddenly rang; it was his mother-in-law calling.

"Chu Hee, where did you go?"

"I'm eating. What's wrong?"

"Stop eating and come back immediately. Yu and Zhang Kai are here; they've found you a job."

After speaking, Lee Min hung up the phone directly.

Chu Hee gazed at the unfinished noodles. In order to get home earlier and avoid a scolding, he had no choice but to ask the boss to pack them for him.

Upon entering the house, Chu Hee spotted Zhang Kai comfortably seated in the center of the sofa, surrounded by everyone else as if he were the head of the household.

Lee Min glared at Chu Hee and said sarcastically, "Didn't I ask you to come back early? Why are you so slow? Are you a turtle? How can you make Zhang Kai wait for you? And what's in your hand?"

"I haven't finished my noodles yet."

"You know how to bring back food, but you don't know how to buy cigarettes for Zhang Kai? Why are you so thoughtless?"

Zhang Kai waved his hand in a magnanimous manner.

"It's okay, I think Chu Hee didn't buy cigarettes because he doesn't have money. It wasn't intentional, Auntie, don't be angry."

Lin Fengxue walked over to Chu Hee, took the noodles from his hand, and said softly, "Hubby, Zhang Kai has found you a good job. You should thank him."

Chu Hee raised an eyebrow, "What job is it?"

Lin Fengyu exclaimed, "The job that Zhang Kai introduced to you is undoubtedly a good one. You're inexperienced, so landing such a job is quite impressive. Without Zhang Kai's help, you might not have secured a decent job in your entire life."

Zhang Kai was feeling quite pleased with the praise.

"My foreign classmate has opened a media company in Yuncheng, and they need someone for advertising design. He agreed immediately when I mentioned it to him. You can start working there tomorrow morning."

Helping Chu Hee find a job was a fulfillment of Lin Fengxue's wish, and she was very grateful.

"Zhang Kai, you've done us such a huge favor. I don't know how to thank you. Let us treat you to a meal."

Lin Fengyu pouted, "Zhang Kai's family runs a restaurant. He doesn't need you to treat him to a meal. Sister, Zhang Kai helped us because of me. Why don't you just thank me directly?"

For this younger sister, she has always been doting.

"Well, thank you, my dear sister."

"Are you all talk and no action?" Lin Fengyu frowned, feeling a bit disdainful.

"Or should I get you a set of L'Oréal skincare products?"

She didn't really care about skincare products. Lin Fengyu glanced at Lin Fengxue's right hand and exclaimed, "Sister, when did you get a watch? It looks quite nice. I don't want skincare products; just give me this watch."

Lin Fengxue pursed her lips, feeling conflicted. The watch on her hand was the one Chu Hee had given her, an Omega watch.

"This watch was a gift from your brother-in-law. I can't really give it to you. How about you pick something else, and I'll buy it for you?"

Upon hearing this, Lee Min's eyes showed a hint of contempt.

"Yu, you don't need this watch; it's only worth a few dollars."

Lin Fengyu said, "Since it's a watch bought by my brother-in-law, you should keep it for yourself."

Seeing an opportunity to impress, Zhang Kai said, "Yu, do you like watches? I can take you to a specialty store later and buy one for you."

Lin Fengyu immediately smiled and said, "Zhang Kai, you're too kind to me! But you've already helped our family a lot; I can't let you spend more."

"Anyway, we're about to get engaged soon, and we'll be a family before long. You don't have to be so polite. And don't worry, I'll definitely get you a nice watch."

Facing someone as promising as Zhang Kai, not to mention someone like Lin Fengyu, who had only recently graduated from college, even women who had been working in society for a few years might not be able to resist such temptation.

The reason why Lin Fengyu agreed to get engaged with Zhang Kai after knowing him for just over two months was because Zhang Kai was so generous!

Money could easily lead people astray.

Chu Hee was the same back then, indulging in the pleasure of spending money. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made a mistake and been punished for three years.

Now he had grown up.

In these three years, he had come to love this ordinary and happy life.

The next day, as soon as the day broke, Lin Fengxue pulled Chu Hee out of bed. She wanted to find the suit he had worn on their wedding day.

This was his only formal attire.

"Honey, wear this today. I'll find time to buy you a new set of clothes later."

"No need to be so formal."

"Today is your first day at the company, and the first impression is important. You need to work hard. The base salary for salespeople isn't high, but the commissions can be substantial. Maybe you'll become the main source of income for the family later."

Upon hearing her words, Chu Hee tentatively said, "Honey, didn't we agree to save money together to buy a house?"

Lin Fengxue smiled reluctantly with her head down.

"Hubby, I want to change to a different job. I might be unemployed for a while."

"Why do you suddenly not want to work anymore?"

"I just feel that doing the same job all the time is too boring. I want to find a job I love."

Chu Hee pulled Lin Fengxue into his arms and whispered, "I support whatever you do." Although he knew the real reason, he didn't reveal it.

"Are you still going to the company today?"

"I'm going to resign today. Later, we'll go together, and you can drop me off at the company."

"No problem!"

The two of them rode on an electrocar, with Lin Fengxue nestled against Chu Hee's sturdy back, her hands encircling his waist. They headed towards the Hengtian Sales Office.
