I was stunned and turned around slowly, Zhuang Xu's expression was as cold as his voice. The dining table was suddenly quiet, and the previously relaxed and cheerful atmosphere disappeared in an instant.
"No..." After a while, I spit out two words, trying to explain that I wasn't being picky, I was just passing out the complaints I heard from the old employees during the internship. But it sounds more like a sophistry.
I shut up.
"Why don't you find a job by yourself and be ashamed of being a parasite all the time around your parents?"
"..." I held back for a long time and said, "I don't think so."
He didn't say any more, looking at me with disappointment written in his dark eyes.
I dismantled my chopsticks in frustration. The thought that it would be good to be a normal friend was wishful thinking. Zhuang Xu probably disliked me from head to toe. Even if we are friends, it is a thousand miles away, and we can't say one piece.
"Zhuang Xu." Si Liang interrupted him. "It doesn't make sense for you to say that. Many people are like this, and Xiguang is not the only one."
"Really? I only know her." He paused, his tone always serious. "And I do think so."
"Xianggan double-cooked pork is here!" The waiter shouted loudly and delivered my double-cooked pork, and the rice ordered by other people came one after another. Si Liang changed the topic and started talking about something else.
After I finished eating, I quickly made an excuse and ran away. This meal finally let me know what it means to eat without meat.
The next few days will be the library and the dormitory canteen. When I really started writing the thesis, I found that the graduation thesis is far more difficult to write than I imagined, and it is completely different from the patchwork paper at the end of each academic year. Just over a month is not enough at all, especially for someone like me who has no accumulation in normal times and has learned a lot in professional courses.
But now it's too late to feel annoyed, so I have to run to the library every day.
It's almost the end of the month.
That night, Xiaofeng and I were the only ones in the dormitory. I was lying on the bed and researching materials. Xiaofeng hummed a song and typed my resume on my laptop.
After a while, I was bored and pushed aside the pile of information that made me dizzy, and chatted with Xiaofeng. "You have already been admitted to graduate school, why are you still going to the job fair?"
"Let's see if there is a better chance." Xiaofeng typed quickly while replying to my words. "And you can also experience the feeling of a job fair. After three years, I will still be looking for a job."
Unexpectedly, Xiaofeng usually looks stupid and lost, but she actually has such a plan. That's right, in this nationally famous university, most people are motivated and ambitious, and only a few are lazy like me.
I continued to lie down for a while and said, "I'll go too."
"Where to go? A job fair?" Xiaofeng turned her head in surprise. "Watermelon, are you stimulated?"
I ignored her, turned over, looked at the ceiling, and thought Zhuang Xu's disapproval of what Zhuang Xu said that day... Yes, I was stimulated.
However, I soon regretted it = =
Because I find that writing a resume is no easier than a dissertation, especially when you have little to offer.
The day before the job fair, I bit my pen for a long time, and finally made five pages of what I could talk about in 100 words, and then ran out at 8 o'clock in the evening to print and add a cover. The printing shop next to the school was terribly dark, and it was always the most crowded at this time. By the time I finished it, it was past eleven o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, I said hello to the aunt downstairs in the dormitory.
When I woke up the next morning, my regret was even higher. Because the job fair starts at 8:30, and our school is far from the job fair, we have to get up at 6:00.
Six o'clock, six o'clock. After saying goodbye to high school, it was the first time I woke up at six o'clock.
Then when I went to the bus station and saw the people in Zhuang Xu's dormitory, my regret reached its peak.
Why didn't anyone tell me that Zhuang Xu was going too! Didn't he find a job
Also, when he saw me, he wouldn't think that I went because of his words, although it was true, but...
I got on the bus depressed.
Fortunately, my annoyance was soon overwhelmed by sleepiness. I really wanted to sleep. I grabbed the hanger and couldn't help but start yawning.
Sleepy!
I vaguely saw Zhuang Xu glance at me several times.
I know I don't have an image, but no matter what, he won't like me if I pretend to be a lady anyway.
More than an hour later, the job fair arrived.
It was my first time attending a job fair, and as soon as I entered the hall, I was really intimidated. People, people, all people, this is the first time I've seen a place whose population density can be compared to Nanjing's buses.
At the same time, I think what Zhuang Xu said really makes sense. It's really shameless for me to rely on my mother's relationship to find a job.
Because it's so hard to find a job right now.
People were crowded, and because everyone had different purposes and stayed for different lengths of time, a few of us were soon separated. After walking a few steps, I found that I was really dying. I couldn’t breathe, and I couldn’t move an inch. There were tens of thousands of graduates crowded into the empty venue. People were next to each other, people were pushing people, and each booth was surrounded by several floors. Not to mention submitting a resume, it is difficult to just take a look at what company it is.
Squeezed out from the crowded job fair, I was almost exhausted, so I found a place to sit down and breathe calmly.
I have never formally participated in a large-scale job fair, so I don't know how terrifying the job fair is. I threw out a resume and squeezed it out, breathing in the fresh air, feeling like the rest of my life.
It took about an hour and a half to see Si Liang and the others come out. During this time I leaned against the tree to catch up with sleep--
"Watermelon, why are you so fast?"
I held the resume in my hand. "I just voted for one."
Xiaofeng gave me a white look, "Then what are you doing here?"
I was about to answer when the remaining resume in my hand was suddenly taken away. I was startled and looked up, it was Zhuang Xu.
He flipped it hastily: "What are you going to do with these resumes? Throw them away?"
"Uh..." I haven't thought about it yet. It is estimated that they should be thrown aside and thrown away when they graduate. It's a bit reluctant to think about it. Although dozens of dollars are nothing, if it is converted into the delicious beef noodles next to the school, it seems like a waste.
Feeling a little regretful thinking about it like that, I should have given it away no matter what.
"But it's too late to go in and vote now, everyone is full."
He frowned, turned his head to look at the venue, it was indeed almost over. "I have a direct senior sister who is in charge of Shengyuan's recruitment this year, and I'll get it for you."
Before I could refuse, he had already turned around and entered the venue. I reflexively looked at Rong Rong, who was chatting with Si Liang as if she hadn't heard.
It took more than half an hour to see Zhuang Xu come out. He was empty-handed and the resume he took was gone.
"I saw that there are still a few companies that have not left, so I voted by the way."
"What company? Will they accept it?"
"A few companies in Shanghai." Zhuang Xu didn't want to say more, so I didn't ask any more. I took it for granted that I probably just threw my resume on the table, but why did it take so long
Rong Rong smiled and said, "Why didn't you just say that you knew the recruiter?"
Zhuang Xu looked at her with the same expression, "Do you need to go through the back door?"
Rong Rong choked for a moment, snorted and said nothing.
I scratched my hair, not knowing what to say. Xiaofeng pulled me, and I walked in front with her knowingly. She whispered to me, "Xigua, do you think Zhuang Xu is being polite on purpose?"
I didn't say anything.
Xiaofeng continued to tease me, "Is that so?"
"How do I know!" I said angrily and walked away quickly.
I didn’t hold out much hope for those resumes. Every day the newspapers and media were talking about how many thousands of graduates there were this year, and how unsatisfactory the employment situation was.
But not long after, I actually received an interview call from Sheng Yuan and asked me to interview the day after tomorrow.
Because it was in the dormitory, everyone in the dormitory could hear it. As soon as I hung up the phone, Xiaofeng shouted, "Xigua, you have developed, Sheng Yuan is super famous and super rich."
She seemed to be more excited than me, and after calling for a while, she asked Rong Rong, "Rong Rong, did you get a call?"
Rong Rong's face turned pale, she took the book and went out without saying anything.
Everyone looked at Xiaofeng blankly and sighed silently. This person is sometimes foolish and wise, and sometimes foolish, and his IQ is really unpredictable.
After the initial excitement, I began to wonder. In fact, my qualifications are level 4 in English and level 2 in computer science. I have never won a scholarship. Even if I have a big A brand, it is not very good. It is really much worse than a stack of honorary certificates.
Why did I receive an interview notice, but Rongrong didn't? Could it really be that senior sister looking at Zhuang Xu's face
No wonder Rongrong was so angry.
I used to do things casually, but I prepared a lot for this interview, memorizing a self-introduction in English, and imitating Xiaofeng a few times, probably... because Zhuang Xu helped me get this interview opportunity.
Sometimes I think wildly, Zhuang Xu said that it is embarrassing for me to rely on my parents' relationship to find a job, but is this job considered to be found because of his relationship
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt sad and sweet.
