After all, it was about arranging a job, a major issue!
So, Wang Hongjuan knew that it was simply impossible for Song Guocheng to arrange a job for his daughter.
"Fine, I'll call Lao Xu right now and ask for his help,"
Song Guocheng said irritably, then started flipping through his contacts, although his fingers were clearly moving slowly.
Lao Xu was his university classmate who had joined the Hucheng TV Station after graduation and had become its vice director.
Thanks to their alumni relationship, the two had a good bond.
But Song Guocheng also knew that asking him to arrange a job for his daughter wasn't easy, or rather, arranging a permanent position wasn't easy, and being a temporary worker at the TV station wasn't much better, with more work and less pay, it just sounded better when said out loud.
"I'll go make a call in my room!"
Having grown accustomed to her parents' interactions, Song Xuejiao didn't want to act as a referee later and took her phone back to her room.
She was quite curious about what kind of position her cousin Wang Jingru's boss would offer her.
Actually, she didn't have high expectations; if she could join a big company like Maetian Entertainment and even start from scratch, she wouldn't mind.
Of course, she also had a wealth of management experience, so it would be ideal if she could take a management position.
Taking a deep breath and subtly adjusting her state of mind, Song Xuejiao finally dialed the number Wang Jingru had sent her.
"Hello, may I speak to Mr. Yang?"
"Um, who is this?"
A deep and magnetic male voice came from the other end of the line.
"Hello Mr. Yang, I'm Jingru's cousin, Song Xuejiao."
"Hello, Jingru already mentioned it to me."
"Whenever you have time, let's meet and talk!"
Yang Hao currently really needed people, especially someone like Song Xuejiao, who was well-known for her capability and had management skills.
"I'm free anytime!"
In fact, during her trip meant for relaxation, Song Xuejiao suddenly had a realization, which led her to cut her trip short and return to Hucheng. Since her return, she had been actively looking for work.
So, she was indeed eager to work; for her, it was not just a new beginning, but also a way to divert her attention through work.
"Anytime?"
At that moment, Yang Hao was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa, watching the Bai Sisters frolic in the pool in the yard. Their graceful and fair figures splashing through the water were quite pleasing to the eye.
"Anytime!"
Song Xuejiao emphasized again.
"Then how about now?"
"I'm at Suhe Bay in Jing'an District, I'll text you the exact address."
"Come over and we can talk face to face," Yang Hao gave his current location.
"Okay, great!"
Song Xuejiao was naturally keen to settle the job matter quickly and agreed immediately.
After hanging up the phone,
she picked out a suit appropriate for an interview from her wardrobe and put on light makeup.
"Jiaojiao, are you heading out now?"
While Song Xuejiao was doing her makeup, Wang Hongjuan walked into her room.
"Yes, I'm going for an interview!"
Song Xuejiao replied while organizing her clothes.
"So soon?"
"Yes."
Song Xuejiao nodded, "It sounds like Mr. Yang is also quite eager."
"Alright, make sure to perform well,"
Wang Hongjuan held her daughter's hand and advised, "Even though we're relying on Jingru's connection, we still need to show them your capabilities!"
"I know!"
After looking at herself in the trial mirror, Song Xuejiao picked up her bag and left the room.
"Jiaojiao, where is your interview?"
"Shall I drive you there?"
Song Guocheng had been listening to the conversation in the room all along, knew his daughter was going for an interview, and had even changed his clothes already.
Despite his seemingly aloof demeanor, he was undoubtedly devoted to his daughter and doted on Song Xuejiao immensely.
"Okay, sure!"
Song Xuejiao actually knew how to drive, but seeing that her father had already dressed for the occasion, she gently nodded her head in agreement.
And so, father and daughter went downstairs together.
When she got divorced, Song Xuejiao didn't ask for the house, the car, or any other fixed assets, but instead took some cash.
Because whether it was the house or the car, they all had memories of her and her ex-husband, and after returning to her parents' home, she wasn't in a rush to buy a car.
Whenever she needed a car, Song Guocheng would drive her around in his Nissan Teana.
After Song Xuejiao got into the passenger seat, the father-daughter duo drove out of the neighborhood.
"What's the exact address?"
Song Guocheng asked while holding the steering wheel.
"Suhe Bay."
Song Xuejiao gave the name of the neighborhood that Mr. Yang had provided.
"Suhe Bay??"
A look of surprise appeared on Song Guocheng's face because Suhe Bay was known as a high-end residential complex in Hucheng.
That was just one thing, but the fact that the interview was to be held at his home also raised suspicion. Did he have some ulterior motive?
With this thought, Song Guocheng unconsciously gripped the steering wheel tighter and frowned as he asked, "Shouldn't the interview be at the company?"
"Why go to a residential area like Suhe Bay?"
"Are you sure he's the boss of Maetian Entertainment??"
Song Guocheng was even beginning to doubt the man's identity.
"Jingru introduced him, so there shouldn't be a mistake!" Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire
"As for the interview location, I didn't ask too much."
Song Xuejiao was so focused on the job interview that she hadn't even considered the location to be an issue.
Now that her father had questioned it, she too felt it was a bit irregular – who holds interviews at their home!
But then again, this job was introduced by her cousin Wang Jingru.
There shouldn't be any problems, right!
"I'll go in with you!"
Song Guocheng's original plan was to drop his daughter off at the interview location and wait in the car.
Now, he changed his mind; he decided to accompany his daughter to meet the person.
"Uh, that's not necessary."
"After all, it's my interview!"
Song Xuejiao shook her head, feeling it wasn't appropriate to bring her dad to the interview, even though the location was a bit strange. She trusted that her cousin Wang Jingru wouldn't have called her just to lie.
"Then don't go!"
"Who holds interviews at home? It just sounds unreliable!"
Song Guocheng made a face, thinking about calling the interview off, which would then have been one less thing to worry about.
"Alright!"
"Then you follow me inside."
Song Xuejiao gave in to her father, having no other choice but to nod in agreement.
"Hmm, that's more like it!"
"But Xuejiao, don't get your hopes too high, just treat it like a regular interview. If it doesn't work out this time, there's always a next time, and the time after that!"
As he drove, Song Guocheng spoke, feeling increasingly skeptical about the job Wang Jingru had introduced.
At the same time, he felt a bit of relief; if his daughter's interview proved to be untrustworthy, he could vent to his wife later.
He would have successfully turned the tables in his ongoing challenges with his wife's family!
Song Xuejiao was unaware of her father's thoughts; her hope was simply that everything would go smoothly and that she could really start working at Maetian Entertainment, beginning anew.
Before they knew it, Song Guocheng's Nissan Teana had arrived at the entrance to the Suhe Bay complex.
Yang Hao had already called security, so after the guard verified the identities of Song Guocheng and Song Xuejiao, they were let in.
As one of Hucheng's top luxury residences, the environment in Suhe Bay was naturally excellent. The communal green and leisure areas were almost like a small park.
Especially noteworthy was the sizable man-made lake at the center of the complex; the water was rippling gently, and there were even people fishing by the lake!
"True to the standards of where rich people live!"
"To think you can fish right inside the neighborhood!"
Song Guocheng couldn't help but remark. Since he had long been neglected in his workplace, he had cultivated a hobby for fishing, becoming quite an avid angler.
Seeing that people could fish in the lake within the complex, he felt a mix of envy and the itch to join in.
Following the address, the Songs soon arrived at Yang Hao's villa.
Song Guocheng parked the car in an empty spot in front of the villa, got out, and started to look over the building.
"This villa must be around a thousand square meters. Who could live in such a huge house all by themselves! It's just ostentatious!"
While reflecting, Song Guocheng gently shook his head. He always found something to pick at when it came to anything related to his wife's family!
