Yan Xixi couldn’t answer. Control lay with others; who knew what they might do? Besides, it was best not to recklessly accept Wan Donglin’s money, or she could end up dead without even knowing why. "Anyway, you must prepare to find another job. As long as you don’t squander money recklessly, you can manage for a year or two. That will also give you enough time to consider what to do next." Xu Xiaoya asked anxiously, "What about you, Xixi?" "You don’t need to worry about me. I’ll find a job soon." Just then, Yan Xixi’s mobile phone rang. She saw it was an unfamiliar number, and the voice on the other end was also unfamiliar. "...Miss Yan, this is Director Yang..." She immediately recalled one of the interviewers from that day, an HR Director surnamed Yang. "Miss Yan, do you have some time? I’d like to discuss the third round of interviews with you. You know, our company isn’t very welcoming to women, and your qualifications aren’t the best. Frankly, your chances are slim. However, I’ve looked at your resume and I have a good impression of you. I can give you some tips and hints... Why don’t you come meet me? I’ll be waiting for you at the XX Hotel..." Yan Xixi smirked. Nowadays, pretty women faced unwritten rules everywhere. The problem was, even those who weren’t attractive would desperately undergo cosmetic surgery to become beautiful, just for a chance to be subjected to these "unwritten rules." She responded coquettishly, "The XX Hotel is too far. How about we switch to another one? I’m familiar with a different hotel where I can get the best discount..." The person on the other end, clearly surprised by her enthusiasm, hesitated for a moment. "That one? Let me see..." "Director Yang, I’ll be there at six o’clock this evening. Dinner’s on me." The man was overjoyed. "Great! See you there." After Yan Xixi hung up, Xu Xiaoya asked anxiously, "Was that your interviewer? What does he mean, asking you to meet at a hotel? Isn’t it obvious he’s trying to pressure you into something? Are you going?" "Of course, I’m going." "You’re really going?" "Might as well. It’s not like I have anything else to do."

At 5:50 PM, she saw a short, stout man already standing in the square—it was Director Yang. Her phone rang. Director Yang sounded extremely enthusiastic. "Xiaoyan, are you almost here? I’m already waiting for you..." "Okay, Director Yang. Please wait for me by the fountain in the plaza... Yes, the one with the three nude statues of beautiful women. It’s quite artistic, so you can admire it while you wait... I’ll be right there..." She walked over five minutes later. Upon seeing her, Director Yang was ecstatic. His gaze swept over her. She was meticulously dressed in a low-cut long gown, her long, slender legs teasingly visible beneath the sheer skirt. Her face, as beautiful as jade, was already captivating. However, his eyes nearly popped out as they took in the full sight. He had to push his glasses up his nose several times to prevent them from sliding off. "Xiaoyan, you really came." "Being invited by you, Director Yang, is my honor." Director Yang cleared his throat a few times. "Xiaoyan, to be honest, your qualifications are indeed good. But, do you know? The other two male candidates are graduates of Peking University. If you want to get into a big company like ours, the challenge is... well, rather significant." These days, big boobs beat a Peking University degree. Xixi’s voice turned cloyingly sweet, enough to give one goosebumps. "Director Yang, I really, really want that job. I just took out a mortgage on a house this year. After the down payment, I’m practically broke, just scraping by. You have to help me, Director Yang. If I don’t get this job, forget about going hungry. The worst part is I won’t be able to make next month’s mortgage payment. If this keeps up, the bank will repossess my house. I’ll truly have nowhere else to turn..."
