But in front of the school board, I was just a high school graduate who didn't get into college, and when I said that these were my own ideas, there was no professional credibility at all.
So Zhao Zitong simply said that this idea was Yu Wenyin's alone, and praised her from her perspective.
After hearing this, Yu Wenyin immediately said modestly:
"It's just a small idea, not a great one..."
Father Yu waved his hand and said, "No, I think it's very good."
"Such a good idea should be shared earlier."
Hearing Father Yu’s praise, Yu Wenyin blushed in embarrassment.
"Because Wen Yin is a shy person, she is embarrassed to speak out her thoughts."
"But I think such an excellent idea like Wen Yin's should not be buried."
"I always feel that Wen Yin will be a great female architect in the future."
“Moreover, St. Ann’s High School is our alma mater. No one understands the students’ thoughts and needs better than us.”
After hearing this, the members of the school board immediately asked:
"Wen Yin, have you ever considered joining our school's preparatory committee?"
Yu Wenyin said with some embarrassment:
"The work at the architectural firm is very busy, I am afraid I don't have time..."
Zhao Zitong immediately responded:
"Wen Yin doesn't have time, but I do!"
"I will be her assistant and help her join the preparatory committee."
The school board immediately applauded and welcomed Yu Wenyin and Zhao Zitong.
After the meeting, Yu Wenyin was a little angry at Zhao Zitong for taking the initiative.
He walked quickly in front with his cheeks puffed out.
"Yu Wenyin, it's just a drawing. Is there any need to be so angry?"
Zhao Zitong held her back and wouldn't let her leave.
"It's easy for you to say. It's just a picture. If you can do it, go ahead."
Yu Wenyin was also very angry. What she hated most was people describing her job as drawing.
“OK, if you don’t want to do it, I’ll find another architect to do it.”
Zhao Zitong was also angry. She saw that Yu Wenyin had her own ideas but didn't say them out loud because of her status as an intern.
I was just helping her get an opportunity, but my kindness was taken as an insult.
In the architectural profession, people are ranked according to seniority.
Without works, you will never succeed.
"What I don't understand is, what are you so keen on doing?"
Yu Wenyin stood there, looking at her seriously.
She knew Zhao Zitong and knew that he was definitely not the kind of person who would show mercy without reason.
"Of course it's to make money!"
Zhao Zitong felt that Yu Wenyin's question was particularly unprofessional.
The school is going to build a five-story building. Does she know how much profit it will bring?
From geological survey, to blueprint design, to foundation construction, to main structure completion, to decoration design, to the final purchase of tables and chairs.
There is so much money to be made from this.
"make money?"
Yu Wenyin opened her small eyes wide, frowned, and asked in disbelief.
Seeing Zhao Zitong taking it for granted, she couldn't help but frown and said:
"Zhao Zitong, don't blame me for not explaining it to you clearly in advance."
"If you want to take advantage of this project, I will be the first one to not let you off?"
Zhao Zitong also looked at her in disbelief:
"What do you mean? Don't you charge for drawing?"
"I just don't charge any fees. It's my way of showing my love for my alma mater. Without St. Ann's School, there would be no Yu Wenyin today!"
Looking at the noble and innocent Yu Wenyin, Zhao Zitong wanted to applaud her.
Sure enough, interns who have not experienced the beatings of society are so naive!
Zhao Zitong didn't want to argue with her, as long as she joined the preparatory committee.
It's her business if she wants to do it for free. I don't have the money or time to do free volunteer work.
"Hey, you two, stop doing this."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Ma Dandan quickly interrupted and said:
"My mother asked you two to go back for dinner tonight."
"Okay!" they said in unison.
Although both of them were a little angry just now, they were very happy when they heard that they were going to Ma Dandan's house for dinner.
Who says the food cooked by Madandan’s mother is so delicious?
When the three were waiting for the bus, a black Mercedes stopped by the roadside. Ye Wenle rolled down the window and asked Zhao Zitong:
"I'm on my way, let me take you back."
Zhao Zitong sneered. He didn't even ask them where they were going, but just stopped by on their way. This is an old-fashioned way to pursue girls.
"Okay, okay, let's go to Tian Kee Tea Restaurant in Yau Ma Tei."
Without waiting for the two to answer, Ma Dandan opened the car door and sat in the back seat.
Zhao Zitong was speechless about Ma Dandan again.
If you like this school hunk, shouldn't you take the initiative to live in the passenger seat?
Why did you sit in the back seat?
She didn't want to sit in the passenger seat, so she took the initiative to sit next to Ma Dandan.
Yu Wenyin rolled her eyes at her and sat in the passenger seat helplessly.
Zhao Zitong in the back row quietly asked Ma Dandan:
"Why didn't you take the opportunity to sit next to Xiao Cao just now?"
Ma Dandan looked at her as if she were a fool:
"The back seat is spacious, and you don't need to wear seat belts in the back seat."
Zhao Zitong was speechless...
This lady is definitely single because of her own strength.
While eating, Ma Dandan's father raised his glass and said to the three of them:
"Based on my years of experience studying financial daily newspapers, Hong Kong's real estate will only rise in the next few years, until Hong Kong's return in 1997, and will not fall."
"Uncle Ma, I totally agree with you."
Yu Wenyin drank a big bowl of chicken soup and seconded the proposal with satisfaction.
"Of course you agree, otherwise you wouldn't have chosen the profession of architect..."
Ma Dandan immediately made fun of Yu Wenyin.
"Don't talk nonsense, Wen Yin is not such a realistic person."
Ma Dandan's mother was cleaning up the dishes and interrupted her daughter.
Zhao Zitong didn't want to agree with this statement.
Is it realistic to choose a promising major?
Besides, there is nothing wrong with being realistic, and girls should be even more realistic.
Otherwise, when you are beaten by society in the future, it will be too late to cry.
The reality here is not snobbery, but the ability to make money on your own.
Don't think about any unrealistic ideals or false righteousness.
Today, Yu Wenyin said she wanted to draw pictures for the school for free, but Zhao Zitong didn't agree.
The school board has a lot of sponsorship from wealthy people, so is there any need to not charge any money?
If you have no money, you will starve. If you have no money, you will not be able to support yourself. Only when you have no money will you know the pain of being without money.
"I think girls should be more realistic."
Zhao Zitong said while holding a chicken leg.
"Zi Tong, I feel like you've become a different person since you jumped off the rooftop."
Ma Dandan was also gnawing on a chicken leg and said to Zhao Zitong.
"Why is it different?"
Zhao Zitong felt a little guilty, and was really afraid that she would behave too strangely and be noticed by others.
