Rebirth of the Millennial: Getting Rich After Parents Get Laid Off

Chapter 194 Late

Shen Qingqing sighed and left with the legal representative.

Fortunately, the tutoring business isn't in a rush right now. Chen Jiaxin is only responsible for one student, Chen Kangqi, a day, and there are no extra tutoring assignments waiting for her.

Otherwise, if they can't recruit enough people, Shen Qingqing will probably have to step in herself.

Of the four people we found, one already had a student, one couldn't work with him, and the remaining two kept asking around, but they always said they were too busy.

Shen Qingqing was uncharacteristically a little frustrated, but she quickly rallied.

Since we can't find a suitable candidate for the tutoring position, we need to find a suitable employee.

We can't keep bringing people from Xunqing over to work overtime.

Thinking this, Shen Qingqing called her uncle. Whether it was Jincheng, Xunqing, or Tuchuan's recruitment work, they would only be further examined after Jincheng had already screened them.

"Hello? Uncle! Are you at the company?" Shen Qingqing asked as soon as the call connected.

"Yes, but I have a meeting later. What are you going to do?" Li Xunjin's company is no longer just one floor; it has expanded to two floors.

Shen Qingqing asked directly, "Does HR have any resumes currently under review? I'd like to set up the organizational structure for the studio."

“There haven’t been any job postings recently, so I’m not sure if HR still has any openings. You can come over and check for yourself.” Li Xunjin handed the decision over to Shen Qingqing.

Having received confirmation, Shen Qingqing readily agreed and had her legal counsel escort her to Jincheng.

Shen Qingqing was very familiar with both Xunqing and Jincheng, and her familiarity with them was no less than that of Li Xunjin and Li Xunli.

After arriving, Shen Qingqing didn't greet Li Xunjin and went straight to the personnel department.

"Sister Xiaomei~ I'm here~" Shen Qingqing fluttered into the personnel department like a little bird.

When Jincheng and Xunqing were recruiting new employees, Shen Qingqing often came to take a look. So most of the people in the HR department were already familiar with Shen Qingqing. Only a few newcomers didn't understand why this kid could move around the office so easily.

"Qingqing, what instructions do you have this time?" Wu Xiaomei is the head of the human resources department. She has been with Jincheng since its transformation and is quite familiar with Shen Qingqing.

Shen Qingqing walked behind Wu Xiaomei to look at the computer screen: "Are there any good candidates for legal, human resources, finance, or receptionist positions recently who would like to submit their resumes?"

Wu Xiaomei was surprised, but she still opened her email: "What's wrong? Are there any plans to hire or replace people recently?"

Shen Qingqing followed Wu Xiaomei's scrolling screen and said, "There are plans to recruit people. I have a new studio and need to build a new team. Currently, the people are being transferred from Xunqing's team. I feel it's not good to always make them work overtime."

Wu Xiaomei's memory was awakened. "You mean that educational studio? What was it called again?"

Once she remembered, her filtering movements became professional; she glanced at her inbox and opened several emails in quick succession.

“Yes, it’s that Youqiantu (优前途) company from a while ago.” Shen Qingqing focused her attention on the resumes that Wu Xiaomei had opened.

The emails Wu Xiaomei opened contained three HR resumes and one legal specialist resume.

Shen Qingqing took the mouse from Wu Xiaomei and carefully looked at their resumes one by one.

Soon, all four resumes were rejected. Shen Qingqing made a request to Wu Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, please keep an eye out for people who know about the education industry. We can hire the others as usual, but we want them to be relatively strong and preferably able to drive, as we might need to travel around with each other frequently."

“Okay, no problem.” Wu Xiaomei nodded in agreement.

Shen Qingqing came gracefully, and then she left gracefully.

As soon as she left, the new employees in the office who didn't recognize her quickly asked their seniors who she was. They were told, "Whether you can get in or not may depend on General Manager Li, but you can't get in without this little devil saying a word."

Another busy day has passed just like that.

The next day when Shen Qingqing went to the studio, she only saw Chen Jiaxin who had come to class; Chen Kangqi and Mrs. Ye were not there.

But now there are less than ten minutes left before the first class starts.

Shen Qingqing took out the phone she had been using to talk to Mrs. Ye about her class last night, only to find it completely silent with no messages coming in.

Chen Jiaxin hesitated for a moment and said, "Qingqing, could something have happened to Mrs. Ye and the others?"

Shen Qingqing calmly said, "It's not time for class yet. If we still haven't heard anything after half an hour, we can ask again without any rush."

Seeing Shen Qingqing so calm, Chen Jiaxin's anxiety gradually subsided, and she nodded: "Okay, then I'll go prepare my lesson first."

Shen Qingqing gave her an "OK" sign.

Then, even after more than twenty minutes of class time had passed, there was still no message from Mrs. Ye on WeChat.

Chen Jiaxin came out again and sat down next to Shen Qingqing. Although she didn't say a word, you could still feel her anxiety.

Finally, at 25 minutes past the hour, Mrs. Ye and Chen Kangqi arrived late.

However, the scars on his face were clearly visible.

Chen Jiaxin was startled and was about to ask what was going on when Shen Qingqing pressed her down.

Mrs. Ye brought Chen Kangqi over and said apologetically, "Xiao Shen, Xiao Chen, I'm so sorry, something came up at home and we were delayed. Can you make up for the time? We're willing to pay a little more!"

Mrs. Ye simply glossed over their lateness and embarrassment with a single sentence.

Shen Qingqing smiled and said, "Our class time is calculated based on the students' regular class time, so there is no extra charge."

"Jiaxin, you and Kangqi should go to class first."

After Chen Kangqi left with Chen Jiaxin, Mrs. Ye sat down in the seat in front of Shen Qingqing.

Shen Qingqing didn't say anything, but simply placed a glass of lemonade in front of Mrs. Ye.

Mrs. Ye sat silently for a long time before finally taking the glass of lemonade and drinking it all in one gulp.

Then the entire space fell silent.

Since Mrs. Ye didn't say anything, Shen Qingqing didn't ask.

She had already offered the most suitable solution when she witnessed it firsthand that day; if Mrs. Ye herself was unwilling, then no one could save her.

Much later, Mrs. Ye whispered, "Xiao Shen, thank you."

Shen Qingqing said softly, "You're welcome, Aunt Ye. Protecting yourself is also protecting Kang Qi."

With just that one sentence, Mrs. Ye, who had been holding back her tears, burst into tears.

Wishing you all a smooth return to work!
See you tomorrow night~
