Chapter 522: Interview, Interview
Su Hui went to work, Gu Ling went to school, leaving Gu Fan all by himself in the house. Gu Fan, in his last semester of senior year with no classes to attend, eagerly waited for an interview call. Looking at the time, it was almost office hours.
He daydreamed about the moment when employees would open their computers, find his resume attractive, then dial his number to notify him about the interview. Ideally, it would be from a well-established company that find Gu Fan’s credentials fitting to their requirements. And he would like the job and be satisfied with the salary.
But after waiting the entire morning, Gu Fan didn’t receive any interview calls. He felt disappointed but motivated himself by thinking that perhaps everyone was too busy and would only review the resumes in the afternoon?
The afternoon passed as well and still not a single interview call arrived. He began to doubt himself. He had applied for countless jobs the day before. Was it possible that not a single company would review his resume or inform him about an interview today?
When it was time for the working day to end and his phone hadn’t rung even once, Gu Fan sighed, consoling himself with the hope of receiving an interview call the next day.
Feeling low having gained nothing the entire day, Gu Fan enquired about Lin Xi’s first day at work to cheer himself up. Lin Xi responded that she spent the entire day reviewing resumes and her eyes hurt from doing so.
Hearing this, Gu Fan fell silent, feeling miserable at the irony of the situation. He was desperately sending out resumes over here and over there, Lin Xi was so sick of seeing resumes. The disparity was huge.
At mealtime, Su Hui and Gu Ling arrived together, chatting and laughing like sisters. Seeing the feast that Gu Fan had prepared, they were overjoyed.
The trio enjoyed meals and chitter-chatter together. Su Hui naturally asked if Gu Fan received any interview calls. Not wanting to lose face, Gu Fan decided to lie to Su Hui and Gu Ling, who had no idea anyway, saying he got an interview call and had to go for it the next day.
