Even if Old Master Jiang allowed it, he definitely wouldn’t dare to call soone ‘Xiaoxia’.
He quickly deleted those two words and re-entered a string of text with symbols—
‘Miss Xia (from Siye’s family [heart][heart])’
Now it was clear…
**
After adding the driver, Xia Ye hardly looked at her phone until she ‘slept’ through the afternoon class and returned to the dormitory, then she took out her phone again.
Lately, she had been preparing for the Academy of Sciences’ written test at night, as Lu Beibei had led the team to Hai City for a robotics competition and would not return for a few days.
Her bed was empty, and Xia Ye’s late-night studying wouldn’t disturb anyone, so she inadvertently stayed up until dawn.
With little energy during the day, she mostly slept through classes.
Typically, written tests were scheduled before the lab assessnts, but the Academy of Sciences placed more emphasis on students’ experintal ability, so the written test was arranged afterwards.
Although the written test wasn’t as difficult as the lab assessnt and had a much lower elimination rate, Xia Ye still planned to spend a few days going over the question bank Professor Bian had given them from beginning to end twice.
Now, seeing several paragraphs of respectful and flowery ssages from the driver on her phone, Xia Ye lifted her eyelids and whistled at Qi Ran, who was working on problems at the next desk.
Qi Ran imdiately turned around obediently, “What’s up?”
Xia Ye, “Interested in a part-ti job?”
At the next table, Yang Qiange was scribbling away with a chanical pencil in an exercise book borrowed from the library, but her ears pricked up towards them.
Part-ti jobs are an important aspect of college life, and with her student union connections, Yang Qiange always had first-hand information on various part-ti jobs, usually with generous conditions.
The poetry society Qi Ran was in didn’t offer such perks, but she had long wanted to experience part-ti work.
Moreover, she ca from a small town where costs and wages were low, yet her parents had never stopped sending her a monthly allowance, no less than that of other students.
Qi Ran knew her parents must be working very hard; if she could take up a part-ti job without affecting her studies, she might even help alleviate their financial pressure.
“Yeah, I want to!
Yeye, are you also looking into part-ti jobs?”
Xia Ye shook her phone screen at her, “It’s that old man you gave oranges to today, he recomnded this part-ti job for you.”
Yang Qiange’s grip on her pencil paused, and the lead of the chanical pencil snapped on the exercise book.
She brushed it off irritably and asked with a hypocritical smile, “Yeye, what kind of part-ti job is it?
How’s the wage?
The wages for student jobs are usually low and a waste of study ti.”
Xia Ye hooked her lips, “The wage isn’t very high…”
Yang Qiange had just found so solace when she heard Xia Ye continue, “500 an hour, just two hours a day…”
Yang Qiange was shocked, 500 an hour?
Two hours a day??
That ant she could earn a thousand in a day?
The student union president, Xue Zhe, only earned 100 an hour for his part-ti job…
Qi Ran was quite pleased.
She imdiately scrambled to open her laptop and typed in her browser to pull up the map, “Yeye, do you know where the job is?
I’ll see how to get there by bus.
Oh, I’ll also check what we need to prepare for their interview…”
When the driver’s brother-in-law heard that the candidate was recomnded by Old Master Jiang, he imdiately upped the benefits.
Xia Ye relayed the information from WeChat to Qi Ran, “XX Royal Retirent Ho, they have a shuttle service, you can just go back and forth with the shuttle.
That old man recomnded you, so they said no need for an interview.
Whenever you’re free, just start working.
I’ve given him your WeChat, ask him if there’s anything you don’t understand…”
Qi Ran took a deep breath.
What good fortune was this?
But what had she done for the old man today?
Why would he recomnd her?
Yang Qiange’s lips nearly bled from the jealousy.
Old Master Jiang’s father had casually ntioned, and Qi Ran got such a great part-ti job…
It was her who suggested being Old Master Jiang’s tour guide initially and had spent so much effort introducing Beijing University and taking him around the university canteen…
Yet all the benefits ended up falling into Qi Ran’s lap!
They were both so focused on the part-ti job that neither of them realized why Xia Ye would have Old Master Jiang’s contact information…
Watching Qi Ran energetically prepare for the retirent ho part-ti job, Yang Qiange’s chest involuntarily heaved with intense jealousy.
