Chapter 1027: Chapter 1068: Michelle Has Lost Weight Again

"Chen Min, you’re applying for jobs too?" Su Yiyi didn’t take Chen Min’s tone to heart. Since everyone was going their separate ways, there was no need to hold on to any old grudges.

Su Yiyi’s attitude made Chen Min feel that any more sarcastic remarks would make her seem petty. Flipping her hair, she said, "Well, we’ve graduated, so it’s time to look for a job. Although I’ve already been hired by a few companies, I still want to have a good look around. After all, a job is a big deal, especially the first one. It has to be good so that even if I switch jobs later, I’ll have better capital for improving my social status, right?"

Su Yiyi smiled slightly, "With your excellent grades and strong capabilities, you’ll surely find a good job."

Chen Min smiled, "Of course. So, where are you planning to go?"

Su Yiyi didn’t want to compete with Chen Min, so she humbly said, "I’ve found a small company and I’ll be working there."

"Oh, so you’ve found a job already. But I think you should look around more. You shouldn’t just settle for any small company. In places like that, management is irregular, with far more messy issues. And with your looks, the boss will definitely have designs on you."

Chen Min was always able to outdo Su Yiyi in class, but when it came to natural beauty and temperament, she could never compare to Su Yiyi. So, given the chance, she would go all out to take a dig at Su Yiyi in that regard.

Although Chen Min was strong in class, she wasn’t very popular. Song Xiaoli immediately retorted, "Chen Min, the place where Yiyi works belongs to her boyfriend, it’s like her own family’s company. She’s essentially the boss’s wife, so why would she fear unspoken rules? Even if there were any, it would be between her and her boyfriend, a matter of mutual consent."

Su Yiyi’s face turned red, and she pulled at Song Xiaoli.

Chen Min displayed a disdainful expression, "Right, you found a rich boyfriend, and that we can’t compete with. Without your looks, we can only rely on ourselves to fight our way up. But watch out, Su Yiyi, in no more than three years, I will surely surpass you."

Still smiling, Su Yiyi said, "With your ability, you will certainly succeed." But inside, she thought there was no chance for Chen Min in this lifetime. However, she didn’t see this as Chen Min overestimating herself, but rather admired the girl’s competitiveness.

Chen Min clenched her fist with vigor, "You’re right, I will strive for everything I want based on my abilities. Just wait and see, I will be stronger than all of you."

Xiao Ning sneered, "If you’re strong, you’re strong; no need to keep talking about it."

Chen Min snorted, "In a few years, I believe, when you are changing jobs, by that time I will already be the person deciding your fates."

Song Xiaoli said impatiently, "Are you done yet? You’re not the one to decide our fates."

Chen Min paid no attention to Song Xiaoli and Xiao Ning. In her eyes, these two weren’t even qualified to be compared with her. She then said to Su Yiyi, "Let’s see where we stand in three years. I hope you won’t forget me."

"I won’t. We were college classmates, how could I forget you?"

Just then, a girl ran over, "Su Yiyi, Xiao Ning, Song Xiaoli, Chen Min, there is a company over there with really good terms. Haven’t you gone to see?"

"Which company?" asked Song Xiaoli.

The girl quickly said, "It’s called Dreamfly Company, and there’s also Flying Dragon Trading Company next to it. Both offer good conditions and their requirements aren’t too high. It looks like there are opportunities."

Song Xiaoli and Xiao Ning hurriedly said, "Then let’s go have a look."

They all rushed in that direction, but they noticed that Su Yiyi didn’t follow. Xiao Ning stopped and asked, "Yiyi, aren’t you coming over to take a look?"

Su Yiyi smiled, "Alright, I’ll come and have a look."

Both companies were Li Yifei’s, but she didn’t want to tell her classmates, as it might affect the recruitment at Li Yifei’s company. After all, if she recommended them, her classmates would have an easy time getting hired. However, Su Yiyi didn’t want her presence to cause any impact on the company.

Li Yifei wasn’t there, and the people present were employees from inside the company, who really didn’t recognize Su Yiyi; she had never been to the company. The only person Su Yiyi knew there was Michelle, who was in charge that day. The manager of the Human Resources Department had taken a couple of days off, so she had taken on the responsibility.

But as Su Yiyi stood behind the crowd and Michelle was busy, she didn’t notice Su Yiyi.

Finally, it was Chen Min’s turn. She sat down in front of Michelle and handed over her resume, saying, "Hello, I am Chen Min, I studied international trade English, I have already passed level six of English, and it is not just about answering questions, I can communicate normally in English."

Michelle looked up at Chen Min. The girl left a good impression on her, quite confident, and considering that the company was involved in a lot of foreign trade these days, they really needed people who could speak English. She nodded and spoke, "Then, may I ask, why did you choose our company? Our company is not the strongest in Mile City."

Chen Min had already looked over the job advertisement and used her phone to search for Dreamfly Company’s information before coming in, and immediately replied, "Although Dreamfly Company is not a super-large company in Mile City, it is a vibrant and emerging company with enormous potential. In such a company, I believe it is more conducive to leveraging my strengths and would offer me more opportunities to show what I can do."

Michelle nodded. "Hmm, your answer is very good. I’ll keep your resume, and we will notify you when the interview is scheduled."

Chen Min thanked her, then got up and left. She saw Su Yiyi and looked at her with a sense of superiority, saying, "See? That’s strength."

Su Yiyi hesitated for a moment before saying, "You probably shouldn’t take the job at this company."

"Why not?"

"It’s... no reason." Su Yiyi had been classmates with Chen Min for four years in university and knew her personality. If she found out that she was actually the boss’s girlfriend, Su Yiyi was sure she wouldn’t be able to handle it, so she didn’t want Chen Min to go to this company.

"Haha, are you afraid that I’m not strong enough? I have already observed that the manager only casually asked the others one question, but she spoke much more with me, so she will definitely hire me."

After finishing, she walked away, pleased with herself.

Su Yiyi shook her head, wondering whether she should tell Michelle not to hire Chen Min. But after thinking it over, she ultimately dismissed the idea. After all, Chen Min was a capable person. If she joined the family company, it would be bringing in good talent. It wouldn’t be a big deal to avoid meeting her.

At noon, Li Yifei invited everyone to a nearby restaurant for a simple work meal. It wasn’t a particularly good restaurant nor did it serve particularly fancy food, as the staff gathered around the table.

Su Yiyi did not join them, firstly because these employees did not know her, and secondly, Li Yifei’s special family status meant it was better not to be ostentatious. Moreover, there weren’t many opportunities left to have meals with her classmates, so she decided to join them in the school canteen instead.

Inside the company, everyone already knew about the relationship between Li Yifei and Xu Yingying. As for his relationship with Michelle, in the eyes of others, that was now a thing of the past.

No one looked down on Li Yifei; instead, they envied him, being able to marry someone like Xu Yingying, a company president - indeed a win-win situation in terms of talent.

However, people sympathized greatly with Michelle. During Li Yifei’s time at the company, everyone had noticed how deeply Michelle cared for Li Yifei. Everyone knew how good Michelle had been to Li Yifei, and after Li Yifei got together with Xu Yingying, the smile on Michelle’s face had clearly become less frequent than before. Almost all she seemed to do at the company was work, incessantly.

Today, since Li Yifei was treating everyone to lunch and he had a special status, and Michelle was their current leader, both being leaders naturally had to sit together.

Everyone tried not to look at Michelle and Li Yifei, focusing on eating their own meals instead. The atmosphere turned very strange, and within less than fifteen minutes, these people had finished eating and quickly cleared out, leaving only Li Yifei and Michelle in the room.

Li Yifei also felt somewhat awkward at that moment. He didn’t know if everyone was creating an opportunity for him and Michelle or if they feared showing any inappropriate expressions that might offend him.

"Michelle, you’ve lost weight again recently," Li Yifei said, looking at Michelle’s fair profile and sighing softly.

Michelle fiddled with the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks and turned to smile at Li Yifei, saying, "Losing some weight is good, isn’t it? Men these days all like slender girls, don’t they?"

Li Yifei felt a pang of distress and said, "I still prefer the old you. Your face is too thin now; it looked better with a bit more flesh on it."

Michelle’s eyes reddened in an instant, and she quickly lowered her head to resume pushing the grains of rice around in her bowl.

"Eat more. I’ll eat with you. No matter what, your health comes first. If you really wear yourself down, then our company would suffer a great loss," Li Yifei almost said he would feel distressed too, but at the last moment, he changed his words.

Michelle just hummed, picked up a few grains of rice to her mouth, but even those few grains took her a long while to chew before swallowing.

"You silly girl, that’s not how you eat. Come on, open your mouth, eat some more," Li Yifei urged, scooping up a spoonful of rice and bringing it to Michelle’s mouth.

Michelle lifted her head and stared blankly at Li Yifei, stunned for a moment by his gesture.
