Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 259 Interview Rejection
"It's all taken care of!"

"Are you sure? I don't think Xiao Shen is easy to deal with!"

Su Ying was a little confused. "Who is he? What kind of woman can't he have? Who am I? Why would he go to such lengths for me?"

Su Wen nodded, "That's true! In any case, it's good that you've figured it out yourself. I think Dr. Shen is quite reliable, and he's interested in you too. You mustn't let him down. Think it over carefully!"

Su Ying muttered "So long-winded" and went back to her room.

She sat on the bed in a daze for a while before pulling the covers over her head.

Ningcheng, the Xiao family.

Grandpa Xiao was about to take a nap when Xiao Shen barged into his room.

"Fourth Master, you can't! You should wait until the old master wakes up before you say anything!"

Once Xiao Shen makes a decision, no one can stop him.

"Old Zhong, you may leave now!" Old Master Xiao waved his hand to indicate.

The butler, Zhongshu, left and closed the door behind him.

"If you're coming to me about women, you can leave now!" Old Master Xiao's words effectively blocked any path forward.

But this approach didn't work on Xiao Shen. "Grandpa, do you have money to burn? Give it to me!"

The old man scolded him, "Are you asking for a beating?"

"Don't you know my temper? If I don't want something, you can't force it on me. If I want something, you can't stop me. Do you really think that by going to great lengths to drive Su Ying away, I will marry Qian Ke'er? We made an agreement before. Since you've gone back on your word, don't blame me for breaking the agreement!"

"You! You brat, how could I have given birth to such a woman-obsessed wretch?" Old Master Xiao pointed at him, his hair trembling with rage.

Xiao Shen smiled wickedly, "Let me correct you, I was born from my mother, men can't have children!"

"I..." Old Master Xiao pressed his chest, almost fainting. "That's right, I'm the one who got rid of Su Ying. What can you do to me? Let me tell you, you brat, I did all this for your own good. And look, between you and ten million, she chose the latter without hesitation. That shows your importance in her heart. Women are just like that, you don't need to take it too seriously!"

"You're right, that's just how women are. So, don't mention Qian Ke'er in front of me again, and don't use my name to justify your own lack of self-worth!"

As they left, they slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

The old man slumped into his chair, shaking his head helplessly. "What an unfilial son! He's such a rebellious son!"
Outside the window, the night was pitch black. The man leaned against the French windows with one arm and held a wine glass in the other, his eyes almost blending into the deep night.

Su Ying, Su Ying, I don't know who seduced me first, and now you just pack up and leave. Do you really think I, Xiao Shen, am so easy to get rid of?
You want to marry that doctor? You'll have to ask me for my permission first.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number, "Song Hao, has the business in Haicheng been finished...?"

……

After Su Ying and Xiao Shen broke up, she naturally couldn't go back to the company. She submitted several resumes online, but they all disappeared without a trace. She was young, beautiful, and experienced, yet she couldn't even get a minor clerical job, which really hurt her confidence.

Su Wen said, "Finding a job is like finding a partner. If you like someone but they don't like you, or if someone likes you but you don't like them, then you have to find someone you click with. So, you have to find someone you're compatible with. Take it easy and don't rush!"

Su Ying thought what he said made a lot of sense, so she slowed down. What's yours is yours, and what's not yours is useless to force.

That day, Shen Qingfeng came to visit, bringing a large bouquet of flowers.

"Dr. Shen, you don't need to spend so much next time!"

As soon as Su Ying finished speaking, Su Wen chimed in, "Yes, yes, what kind of boy doesn't buy flowers for a girl? That's outrageous!"

"Well, you two chat, I'm going out to take care of something!" With that, he quickly slipped away, leaving them space to do their thing.

"I heard from Su Wen that you've been looking for a job lately? How's it going?" Shen Qingfeng sat down and asked with concern.

Su Ying shrugged and said self-deprecatingly, "Don't even mention it, it's all tears when you talk about it!"

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself; finding a job can't be rushed!"

Su Ying chuckled, "How come you said exactly the same thing as Su Wen? Like an old father!" Shen Qingfeng scratched his head sheepishly, "Really?"

"By the way, how's your English?"

Su Ying: "Not bad!"

“My aunt’s boss friend is looking for an English translator, and only girls are accepted. If you don’t want to go, you can give it a try. There’s no one more suitable right now!”

Su Ying felt a little embarrassed. "Isn't this inappropriate? You helped me with my last job!"

This makes her seem useless.

Shen Qingfeng smiled warmly, "That's how job hunting is all the time. Introductions from acquaintances are also a way. I've done my aunt's friend a favor!"

"But……"

"Let's do it tomorrow. I'll go to the interview with you!"

Su Ying's next words were cut off.

But he's right. No matter which way you find a job, as long as you successfully find a satisfactory one, that's good.

The next day, Shen Qingfeng personally drove Su Ying to her job interview.

When Su Ying appeared in a very feminine yet professional suit, Shen Qingfeng's eyes lit up and he couldn't take his eyes off her.

"Su Ying, you look so beautiful today!"

After saying that, he blushed with embarrassment.

Su Ying quickly tried to ease the awkwardness with a joke, "Tell me, when have I ever looked bad?"

The interview lasted for half an hour. Shen Qingfeng waited patiently in the corridor. Although the person being interviewed was Su Ying, he was more nervous than she was.

As soon as the interview room door opened, he rushed in, asking, "How did it go?"

"Not bad, I feel there's hope!"

"I've already put in a good word, and with your talent and beauty, this is sure to work out!"

The two then went to eat, but Su Ying refused, saying that things hadn't been decided yet and there was no rush. Shen Qingfeng, however, said, "Even if we don't celebrate in advance, we still need to eat, right?"

That makes sense. Besides, Shen Qingfeng helped her today, so she should repay the favor. But when she went to pay the bill after the meal, she discovered that Shen Qingfeng had already paid.

Well, I guess I've already repaid this favor!
The two walked out of the restaurant chatting and laughing. Shen Qingfeng sensed that something was wrong with Su Ying, so he followed her gaze and looked around. "What are you looking at?"

"Don't you feel like someone is watching us?"

No, could it be that you were too nervous today?

"may be!"

A day later, Shen Qingfeng received a call from Mingcheng International.

"Aunt Wang, how did things go?"

"I'm sorry, Qingfeng, but Ms. Su, our company can't use her. Why don't you take her to see another company?"

Shen Qingfeng's face darkened. "Why? Is it because she's not capable enough?"

"Well... how can I put this, Qingfeng? Has your friend offended someone? It's not that Aunt Wang doesn't want to help you, it's just that the other party is too powerful, and our small company can't afford to offend them..."

Shen Qingfeng: “…”

He seemed to have thought of something.

Could it be that he came to Haicheng and sabotaged things there?
