Chapter 987: Chapter 976: Miss Wants to Find a Job!
Ning Fan knew that rely practicing basic skills wouldn’t satisfy Xu Ruolan; she still needed one or two entry-level cultivation techniques.
And the Shadow Team, during their missions, collected quite a few entry-level cultivation techniques.
Ning Fan ca to the Shadow Base and went straight to Ouyang Feifei.
“Go to the warehouse and fetch a few ordinary entry-level cultivation manuals.”
Ning Fan commanded with a calm tone, his hands behind his back.
Ouyang Feifei nodded, and soon a row of ancient books with yellowed pages was laid out before Ning Fan.
…
“Hmm… Ruolan has a Pure Yin Body, so the Ice Heart Technique might be more suitable?”
Ning Fan picked up the ancient manual of the Ice Heart Technique and began to examine it closely.
The manual was entirely in traditional characters and quite difficult to understand, but compared to the Eight Zen Mantra, it was child’s play.
If Ning Fan guided her, understanding it wouldn’t be difficult.
“Alright, this will do!”
Ning Fan dusted off so of the dust from the ancient book, looking quite satisfied.
Since it was still early, Ning Fan picked up a few others to browse through.
During this process, Ning Fan noticed that so manuals were severely damaged and the content could no longer be discerned.
“Hmm… Feifei, the preservation status isn’t particularly good.”
Ouyang Feifei frowned slightly and sighed at Ning Fan:
“I’m troubled by this too. Not only the ancient books, but so ancient weapons we painstakingly collected have also rusted. It seems preserving items underground isn’t as easy as it seems. If only there were so airtight storage equipnt… Could I apply for so funding for this?”
Ning Fan burst into laughter upon hearing this.
“Ouyang Feifei, oh Ouyang Feifei, you certainly always find a reason to request funding. The damages on these ancient books are clearly caused over decades, not within ten years; maybe you should watch more ‘Antique Appraisal’ episodes before trying to fool .”
Returning ho with the Ice Heart Technique, Xu Xiaoqing was chatting with Xu Ruolan about amusing school stories.
Seeing Ning Fan return, Xu Xiaoqing suddenly stood up, cleared her throat, and adopted a more serious tone:
“I have an important announcent to make. I am going to find a job!”
Ning Fan bent over and placed the Ice Heart Technique manual on the table, and turned to Xu Xiaoqing:
“Didn’t you just say a few days ago that your studies were overwhelming? Why are you now looking for a job?”
Xu Xiaoqing widened her eyes and said:
“Of course, before looking for a job, I need to finish those annoying essays first. Don’t you have even this basic knowledge? Shows you haven’t been to college!”
“Alright, alright, I haven’t been to college… But you still have over half a year until graduation, why look for a job now?”
“You just show you know nothing about college life. Without internship experience, how do you get your diploma? In the final year, most graduate dorms are empty as everyone’s out in the world; who’d stay at school to waste their youth?”
Xu Xiaoqing “humd” at Ning Fan, her face full of superiority.
Xu Ruolan smiled slightly and raised her porcelain cup to sip so cool tea.
“An internship certificate is as simple as saying a few words for a stamp and signature.”
“Sister, how can you say that?”
Xu Xiaoqing frowned, her tone carrying a hint of reproach.
Xu Ruolan t Xu Xiaoqing’s gaze and smiled sweetly.
“What’s wrong? The Xu Corporation’s internship certificate, would your academic office dare not recognize it?”
“But internship experience and a certificate are completely different things!”
Xu Xiaoqing stared into Xu Ruolan’s eyes, seemingly frustrated by the perceived patronization.
With a trace of apology, Xu Ruolan nodded:
“Alright, I’ll arrange it. Let know when convenient, and you can co work at the company.”
Xu Xiaoqing frowned even more.
Clearly, her sister didn’t grasp the crux of the matter.
“Sister, in your eyes, am I just a spoiled, incapable little girl?”
Xu Ruolan maintained a calm smile, shaking her head slightly in resignation.
“It’s not that I don’t trust you. Your job search won’t be a simple event, and many things are more complicated than you imagine.”
“Complicated how? If I don’t encounter the complex society, what’s the point of an internship? Sister, you can’t protect forever!”
Xu Xiaoqing firmly shook her head, her tidy ponytail swinging back and forth, showing a girl’s stubbornness and pride.
She believed her talents were no less than her sister’s; if her sister could make her way through perilous negotiations, she could, too.
If she needed her sister’s help to find a job, wouldn’t that be akin to surrendering?
Ning Fan then chuckled and sidled over to Xu Xiaoqing.
“Let tell you, you really are oversimplifying things.”
“Enough, I’m not that naive! I know the insidiousness of people’s hearts and the deteriorating world!”
Xu Xiaoqing waved a fist at Ning Fan, her gaze showing a Blade Edge.
Ning Fan lowered his hand, not angered at all:
“Alright, alright, Little Aunt, listen to analyze this for you. In Zhonghai City’s business circle, there’s no one who doesn’t know your sister. If soone wants to collaborate with Xu Corporation, they’ll bend over backwards for you,
So going anywhere would be like directly joining your sister’s company; if soone has a grudge with Xu Corporation, going for an interview would be like a lamb entering a tiger’s den, you’d surely be treated as a bargaining chip.”
Xu Xiaoqing was silent for a mont, then looked up again and said:
“I don’t believe the entire Zhonghai City is either trying to please my sister or holding grudges against her. I don’t believe it!”
With that, Xu Xiaoqing stomped her foot and dashed out like a gust of wind.
That night, she went to the print shop and made ten different styles of resus in color.
After one night, those ten resus would be sent to ten different companies.
She had been preparing to find a job independently for a long ti, and one disappointing announcent wouldn’t make her give up easily.
Seeing Xu Xiaoqing running off with a face full of grievances, Xu Ruolan couldn’t help but shake her head:
“Why is this child so rebellious?”
Ning Fan chuckled and patted Xu Ruolan’s shoulder.
“Don’t you know your sister yet? She’s fiery and tenacious. But don’t worry, as your future brother-in-law, I won’t let anything happen to her.”
Xu Ruolan nodded, throwing a grateful glance at Ning Fan.
She also knew that young people need experience, and when she first entered the workforce, she faced many hardships.
But she also knew that letting go completely now would an that Xu Xiaoqing would be thoroughly tornted by various old enemies.
Xiaoqing only knew she had paved a path in the career world early, but she never knew that their father had silently resolved nurous crises and blocked many deadly threats for her.
