Chapter 52: Longing for Each Other for Many Days Does Not Relieve Sorrow
The interviewer was a man in his late 20s, with a middle parting hairstyle and hair gel, shining brightly like Chow Yun-fat in the 1990s.
A crisp black tuxedo accentuated his slightly slender build with a professional air.
Leng Xi sat across from him, slightly raising a humble smile. "Hello, I'm here to apply for the skyscraper interior designer position." He glanced at the ID card on the desk: Human Resources Manager, Chen Chao!
Chen Chao looked down at her resume, then raised his head, with a professionally friendly expression, "New graduate?"
Leng Xi's smile on his face suddenly became a bit stiff, and a bad feeling slipped through his heart. "Yes, but I'm very motivated." He should fight for himself.
"You know how big the skyscraper is, how high the requirements are for designers..." Manager Chen put his hand on the table in front of him, just as he was saying this, his phone rang, interrupting his speech, and he made a slight gesture to Leng Xi to wait, then answered the call.
Leng Xi felt a chill run down her spine, and she had already guessed seven or eight parts of it in her heart. She couldn't help but secretly stick out her tongue.
"Yes, yes, president, I'm now interviewing interior designers..." Chen Chao continued on the phone, with a listening and nodding expression, completely gone was his manager's demeanor from earlier. After a day of interviews, none of the designers who came and went caught his eye, not one met the requirements.
"You want to see the designer now? Alright, alright, I'm hiring right now, I'll bring her over to you immediately." Chen Chao hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and felt tense with sweat breaking out on his back. The sun was setting, and it was almost time to get off work, but he still hadn't found a suitable person.
Leng Xi sat quietly, seeing Chen Chao come back, blinked her eyes, "May I ask if it's my experience..."
"Come on, follow me to the construction site." The manager was anxious and didn't hear what Leng Xi said. He directly grabbed the resume from the table and threw a "follow me" gesture at Leng Xi before heading out of the interview room. At this point, he could only make do with what he had.
Leng Xi is in a cloud of fog, but judging from his tone, it seems that he didn't reject her. There might still be a chance, so I'll follow him up.
Chen Chao took her into a high-rise building that was still under preparation and being fine-tuned.
Beyond the complex facilities and equipment, he followed him up to the 27th floor.
Leng Xi's heart was filled with anxiety, but also very curious.
Are all these various rooms really expected to be handled by an interior designer who is being hired?
It would be great if I were accepted, then I could produce many works.
A work is like a designer's child, having exquisite and outstanding works is the dream of every designer.
"President, this is the interior designer who was just hired."
Upstairs in the room, Chen Chao's forehead was sweating, his face tense, slightly lowering his head, reporting to the man standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
He's just rushing to put ducks on the shelf, casually catching a designer and sending them to the CEO, it's really been a few days of interviewing, and not one can take charge! The CEO is now anxious, and having someone mediocre is better than no one. Chen Chao was sweating in his heart.
The floor-to-ceiling window hasn't been installed with glass yet, from there you can see far into the distance, it's completely a natural way to get close to nature.
The man's figure is tall and straight, lean and powerful, with a golden ratio of beauty, standing in front of the window, braving the wind.
He stood with his hands in the pockets of his black trousers, gazing into the distance. The gentle breeze blew his open sky-blue shirt, which fluttered in the wind, revealing a majestic and awe-inspiring figure, exuding an air of coolness that left people gasping in amazement.
Leng Xi's eyes widened in surprise!
He?
"Alright, let's take a look." At this time, the man turned around leisurely, his narrow eyes gazing towards Chen Chao's position.
That resolute nose bridge, profound eye sockets, and slightly upturned thin lips!
Leng Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly used her resume in her hand to cover her face, her heart racing wildly.
Longing for you day and night cannot dispel my worries, but seeing you arrive makes my heart soft and confused.
The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and his deep pupils sparkled as he cast a glance at the woman hiding behind Chen Chao, "Are you trying to deceive me, do you think I'm blind?" His rich, magnetic voice still had that intimidating yet seductive power.
"President, she is indeed here to apply for an interior designer position, and although her experience is limited, she has a natural talent and ability in that area. Didn't you say you were looking for designers with unique qualities?" As soon as the president spoke, Chen Chao's heart skipped a beat, becoming even more tense and anxious, thinking that the president was talking about him, afraid that his own cleverness would be exposed.
But after having been in the workplace for several years, he still had a certain ability to cope with situations and explained himself in a calm and rational manner.
Leng Xi also knew that Ling Han was talking about her again, because she really did cover her ears and steal the bell, thinking that if she covered her own face, Ling Han wouldn't be able to recognize her.
She slowly lowered the file in front of her face, her hands clasped together in front of her body, and bowed her head.
Her cold and profound eyes lightly turned, falling on Chen Chao's face. Chen Chao suddenly felt himself surrounded by a sharp aura, cold sweat emerging layer by layer.
"Is this the person you've accepted?" The words were light, but they carried a huge oppressive feeling.
Chen Chao took a deep breath, steadied his nerves and said, "Yes, CEO. She has a latent talent, I believe she will have unique inspiration and innovative designs here." Having one designer is better than having none, and it's better to be accused of dereliction of duty.
Chen Chao let go and took a gamble, plucking up his courage, and only picked out the good things to say.
"Oh?" Ling Han's phoenix eyes slightly raised, his gaze fell on Leng Qing's body behind him, "Tell me your impression of this place."
Chen Chao pushed Lingxi a little, and she immediately raised her head. She looked at Shangling Han's deep and mysterious eyes, which narrowed slightly as he gazed at her with anticipation.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she had never resisted him.
Seeing his eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if brewing discontent, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, she calmly stepped forward a few steps, scanning the interior of the room.
The building's design is quite peculiar, with a shallow entrance hall and a bar counter built several meters away from the wall on the east side of the room.
The west side is all open, with European-style floor-to-ceiling windows design.
"This room is suitable for a private resting place, the scenery outside the window is elegant and quiet, the interior design is leisurely. If I had to give this room a name, I would call it - 'Remembrance'!" Leng Xi took in the layout of the room with a glance, relaxed his stiff hands and placed them casually by his sides, a faint smile on his face, neither arrogant nor humble, as if chatting casually.
A faint movement in his deep eyes, a gentle ripple flowed, "Missing?" These two words fell into his heart, stirring up layers of ripples, and for an instant, there was a thread of shock that rose to his mind.
The word "thought" was originally too infectious, making people fall into a trance-like state. But for him, this word had always been a ridiculous existence, and in his life dictionary, he never needed to have this word!
Her eyes, like a clear spring, gazed steadily at him, and the ripples that rose in his eyes fell into hers, making her heart tighten.
