Manla looked at Gu Yan suspiciously. "Hey! Are you sure you haven't sent your resume to that company?" What was going on?

Gu Yan shook her head and said firmly, "No."

Manla took a sip of coffee and thought about why that company hired Gu Yan.

"Well, do you know what is going on?" Gu Yan was really anxious after seeing Manla sipped her coffee leisurely.

"Don't worry. Let's sort it out slowly." The most important thing was calmness at this moment.

"This… well." Gu Yan still wanted to say something, but when she saw Manla looked at her sharply, she had to sit still.

"How do you know that you never sent your resume to that company?" A job hunter might send many resumes and take interviews of a lot of companies. Even Manla couldn't remember clearly those companies she applied for.

"I also know that I am forgetful, so when I see suitable positions, I would record them." Gu Yan smiled embarrassedly at the thought of her many faults.

Thinking that Gu Yan was really forgetful, Manla said, "Maybe you forget it. You just said that you had a bad memory."

"But those companies rejected me bluntly on the interview because Wen Yunfeng didn't allow them to hire me." When Gu Yan mentioned Wen Yunfeng, she showed an expression of resentment. It was Wen Yunfeng who were so ruthless and drove her to this desperate situation.

Manla was a bit surprised when she saw Gu Yan showed a resentful expression. She had known Gu Yan for so many years, but she had never seen the softhearted Gu Yan hated a man so much. Circumstances could really change a person.

Manla thought carefully that it was obviously a hoax if Gu Yan was hired by a company without sending a resume to it and being interviewed. Manla smiled helplessly and thought God really loved to play jokes to Gu Yan.

"Well. In this case, you shouldn't think about it." No matter how tough the life was, Manla still hoped that Gu Yan could see the positive side of the life. She was clear about what a person who split hairs would be.

"But…" Gu Yan frowned and still couldn't figure out why that company hired her.

"Don't think about it. You just think that they make a mistake." Manla knew what Gu Yan was thinking, but she had to interrupt her cranky thoughts in order not to let her think too much.

Gu Yan looked at Manla deeply. She could see Manla's concern for her from Manla's eyes and instantly understood that it was for her good, so she nodded and stopped asking.

"You should really taste the coffee here." Manla changed the topic. She objected the fact that Gu Yan only ordered sweet smoothies at this cafe and she thought a person should learn to taste coffee.

Gu Yan shook her head. For her, coffee and smoothies represented two different attitudes towards life. Coffee smelt fragrant and tasted smooth while smoothies tasted sweet and delicious. Manla felt that the smoothies had a simple taste of sweetness while Gu Yan could only taste the bitterness of coffee.

Manla shrugged and continued enjoying her favorite coffee.

After that, Gu Yan paid no attention to this episode and kept busy with her life.

Nanyi Design Workshop waited a few days but got no reply from Gu Yan. They had to report it to their superior.

"Boss, Miss. Gu didn't give a reply." Wu Gang stood upright at the desk, waiting for further instructions.

"Recently, she needs money urgently." Mo Yichen browsed documents quickly and said expressionlessly.

"Okay. Boss." Wu Gang had been the assistance of Mo Yichen for so many years and he could guess what Mo Yichen wanted him to do next from his words. Wu Gang thought it was interesting that his boss really treated Miss. Gu differently.

Gu Yan's mobile phone rang again one week later. She stared at the familiar number for a moment and decided to answer the phone finally.

"Hello, Miss. Gu. I am from Nanyi Design Workshop." It was the same person as last time.

"Hello." Gu Yan was going to forget this, but they called her again.

"I informed you last time that you were hired by our company. When can you come to work?"

"Go to work? I remembered I didn't send my resume to your company." Gu Yan didn't understand all the time why they hired her, and she could ask it clearly now.

"Someone recommended you to our company. After seeing your information, we thought that you met our recruitment requirements. So, we called you."

"I got it." Who would recommend her? She didn't know anyone else in this city. Gu Yan bit her finger and felt that it was extremely strange.

"What are you worried about, Miss. Gu?" The person on the phone asked urgently.

"Why didn't you interview me?" In current society, a job hunter must participate in interviews no matter what kind of companies or positions they applied for. Gu Yan had been looking for a job for a long time, so she had experienced the recruitment process deeply.

"We have read your information and believed that you meet our recruitment requirements, so you can be hired directly without an interview. Are there any other problems?" Gu Yan felt that the person on the phone was quite helpless at this moment.

"Are you worried about the remuneration?" Seeing that Gu Yan made no response, the person on the phone asked immediately, which surprised Gu Yan a great deal.

"No, I…" Why did the person talk about the remuneration? The topic was changed so quickly that Gu Yan couldn't keep up with it.

"If you need money badly, our company can also advance salaries to you."

"I don't need." Gu Yan replied coldly and hung up the phone. Naïve as she might be, she finally understood what was going on.

The person on the phone tried every means to get her trust and even told her that the company could advance salaries to her. Gu Yan felt helpless because she received a fraudulent call when she had nothing. She looked at the sky and felt that she was really hapless.

She placed that phone number into the blacklist angrily and threw the phone on the couch.

"Boss, Miss. Gu has rejected us explicitly." Wu Gang said guiltily and prayed in his heart since it was the first time that he hadn't done a good job.

"Oh?" Mo Yichen stared at Wu Gang and wanted to know what was wrong.

"Miss. Gu refused the position and the special treatment we provided her. We tried to convince her but couldn't contact her anymore." Wu Gang sighed and thought, "People who didn't know the facts might think Gu Yan was a person of character. But those who knew might think she was impervious to an obvious situation. What did boss think about?"
