A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

Linjiang University?

Lu Yang was slightly surprised.

Keep in mind, this is his own school.

Is the intention to have him return to his own school to be an interviewer, interviewing his own classmates?

"No objections, right?"

Before Lu Yang could reply, Li Xixue glanced around.

It seems to be saying that the matter is settled.

The executives nearby exchanged glances, but there seemed to be no objection.

Firstly, no one dares to object to what President Li has decided.

Secondly, to be honest, it does have its advantages to let young people participate in campus recruitment.

With a small age gap, communication costs are low, and students won't be too nervous.

"Assistant Chen Yan will give you a template of the interview standards and process later."

Li Xixue looked at Lu Yang and added, "You can decide the selection criteria yourself, but there's one bottom line: anyone whose professional skills aren't up to par will be rejected!"

soon.

End of the meeting.

The group got up and started to walk outside.

As they passed by Lu Yang, several people in charge nodded to him.

"Congratulations on your promotion, Commissioner Lu."

"Commissioner Lu, how about we have dinner together tonight? I know a nice Western restaurant, let's celebrate together."

"Yes, yes, we should definitely celebrate this. We haven't seen such a rapid promotion in years."

Before Lu Yang could speak, someone else interrupted.

The female manager from the marketing department blinked and scratched the back of his hand: "Specialist Lu, remember to take care of me in the future. We can chat and get to know each other sometime tonight."

Lu Yang stood still, without moving.

It's not that I don't want to move, it's that I can't.

A legal manager was blocking his way on the left, two finance staff squeezed through on the right, and behind him stood the fat guy from the risk control department. Several people surrounded him, their faces full of wrinkles as they smiled, like they had seen their own father.

Lu Yang was about to say something.

Inside the conference room, the sound of high heels approached from afar.

Several senior executives around them turned their heads at the same time.

Li Xixue stood at the door of the conference room.

Her gaze swept across the crowd, finally settling on Lu Yang.

To be precise, it landed on the woman's hand that hadn't yet retracted.

The female marketing manager's finger recoiled instantly, as if burned.

"President Li!"

The group immediately dispersed and returned to their respective positions.

The warmth from just now vanished in an instant.

Li Xixue ignored them and instead threw three words at Lu Yang.

"Come with me."

Done.

She turned and left.

Lu Yang broke free from the encirclement and quickly caught up.

The two walked down the corridor one after the other, and the surrounding employees automatically moved aside when they saw them.

Li Xixue walked slowly, but did not look back.

The clattering of high heels echoed for a moment, until the number of people around gradually decreased.

She suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lu Yang.

"You were a student at school, but here you are not a student, and this place is not a school either."

"The people here can change at any time. They might praise you today, but they might trample on you tomorrow."

Lu Yang listened without interrupting; it was clear she was teaching him, instructing him on workplace principles.

Moreover, the workplace itself is very realistic.

If you have resources, others will follow you.

If you were to fall from grace one day, those who used to joke and laugh with you would turn on you in an instant.

At today's meeting, Li Xixue asked me to sit next to her; it was another promotion.

As soon as the news came out, everyone knew that Li Xixue was promoting him.

This means that Lu Yang possesses a large amount of resources.

With resources available, the wolves will naturally pounce.

Li Xixue continued, "The reason they're coming up to us isn't because of you, but because..."

She paused for a moment.

Lu Yang stood with his hands in his pockets, looking at her.

"You think I haven't thought about this?"

Li Xixue raised an eyebrow.

Lu Yang said casually, "Back in school, you saw how my classmates treated me on the beach."

He shrugged.

"You're really good at judging people; I can still tell them apart."

Li Xixue didn't speak, crossed her arms, and continued to stare at him.

"To be honest, I don't understand the intricacies of the workplace as well as you do."

Lu Yang spoke calmly, "But I'm not stupid. When that group of people surrounded me just now, I didn't respond to any of them, including that woman."

Li Xixue snorted and didn't pursue the matter further.

She had some ulterior motives in telling Lu Yang all this.

Everything else is fine, but there are a lot of girls in the company.

She knew exactly how those women had risen to their positions.

I'm afraid Lu Yang will fall into their trap and be seduced by some vixen... ugh, some woman.

"By the way, why are you telling me all this? Are you afraid I'll run off with another woman?"

Lu Yang stared at her face and couldn't help but ask.

Logically speaking, she wouldn't talk to me about these things alone, since it would be a bit pretentious.

Upon hearing this, Li Xixue immediately turned around, her back to Lu Yang, and her gaze fell on the window.

The office building windows offer views of most of the city.

The traffic and pedestrians moved densely below, not much different from ants.

"I...I'm telling you this to remind you not to trust people too easily at the company," she said, her voice slightly flustered.

Lu Yang tilted his head.

"And what about you?"

Li Xixue turned around: "What do you mean, 'me'?"

"You work at the company too."

Lu Yang chuckled. "Following your logic, shouldn't I also not believe you?"

Li Xixue was stunned.

She then replied, "You can give it a try."

Lu Yang was immediately defeated:

"Okay, okay, from now on, I won't trust anyone here except you, alright?"

A gust of wind blew in through the window, making the window frame rattle softly.

The air seemed to freeze.

"Who asked you to believe that?"

Li Xixue's expression didn't change, but the tips of her ears turned red. She turned her head away and walked forward quickly.

Lu Yang caught up with him and asked, "By the way, there's something else."

"Can I not go to this interview?"

Li Xixue paused on the floor with her high heels, turned around, and sized up Lu Yang.

"What? Trying to slack off on your first day after being promoted?"

"It's not slacking off."

Lu Yang scratched his head, unsure how to explain.

Li Xixue crossed her arms and coldly uttered two words: "Reason."

Lu Yang said directly:

"My school is on the list of schools that are hiring."

"Is your school there?"

Li Xixue blinked twice.

She hadn't even noticed that.

The schools on the list were all negotiated between the company and the schools; she only glanced at them.

But this in itself has no impact.

"Then you should go even more," she said.

Lu Yang was stunned: "Wait, what kind of logic is that?"

Li Xixue's lips curved slightly, but she quickly withdrew them.

"You graduated from that school, so you know the students' level best. You know which majors are strong and which people are reliable. You have a good grasp of that."

"That's true, but..."

"But what?"

Li Xixue interrupted him directly, not giving him a chance: "Commissioner Lu, your current role is that of a project specialist for the company, representing our group. Is there a problem with you going to the school to conduct recruitment interviews?"
