Dawn of a New Job (3)

In the script that Yang Hua had helped Qi Yuying to write, he used such a character. Qi Yuying was obviously much smarter than Yang Hua. Whether it was the timing and method of introducing the characters, or the design of the dialogue and the plot, she perfected it more than Yang Hua. However, the only flaw was that Qi Yuying's typos and grammar errors did not decrease at all. Moreover, the frequency of their appearance seemed to be proportional to her writing speed.

"No wonder Director Zhang keeps praising you as a genius screenwriter! Excellent!" After reading half of the script, Yang Hua could not help but give Qi Yuying a thumbs up.

"Of course! I'm a gold-medal screenwriter! As long as I recover, how can I not write a good script?" Qi Yuying had never been humble when it came to writing scripts. As soon as Yang Hua praised her, she immediately accepted it proudly.

"Yes! This half of the episode is really well written!" Yang Hua nodded repeatedly. He had never doubted Qi Yuying's ability.

"Actually, you also contributed to this!" Qi Yuying patted Yang Hua's back and said to him with a smile, "I realized that you're actually a genius. You can come up with a good idea to expand the plot just by watching TV dramas. Looks like I underestimated you in the past. I should have asked for your opinion more often!"

"Don't joke with me." Yang Hua quickly shook his head.

"I'm serious. In the future, when I can't think of any good ideas, I'll ask you for them." From Qi Yuying's expression, Yang Hua could not tell if she was really serious about making that decision or if she was joking.

"If you think I can help, of course, there's no problem." Yang Hua answered with a smile.

After lunch, Qi Yuying sat in front of the computer and started typing again so that she wouldn't interrupt her sudden inspiration. Meanwhile, Yang Hua quietly returned to school again. Qi Yuying's problem had been solved, and now it was his turn to solve his own problem. He did not want to live in Qi Yuying's house and be a stay-at-home husband for the rest of his life.

As usual, Yang Hua went straight to the academic exchange hall on the southeast side of the school as soon as he entered the school gate. In that area, there were often companies that were short of employees coming to recruit people. Moreover, there would be some recruitment news on the billboard outside the academic exchange hall from time to time.

The last few times he came here, Yang Hua left empty-handed. But this time, his luck seemed to have finally come. A recruitment notice for an insurance company's backstage operator was posted on the most prominent spot on the billboard.

It was clearly written on the notice that a total of four fresh graduates from this school would be recruited. At this time, Yang Hua felt that only a few of his classmates who had yet to find a job could compete with him. He immediately looked at the recruitment time written on the notice in surprise. Coincidentally, it was the last day! Yang Hua quickly took out his old second-hand phone and dialed the phone number provided on the notice.

"Hello. Ping An Insurance Company." A man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello. I'm a student at Lianhua University. I saw your recruitment notice and am very interested in your company's position."

"Hmm, you can briefly introduce yourself. Can you use a computer? How's your typing speed? How much do you know about programming and database?" The man on the other side was obviously very experienced. He quickly listed a few preliminary questions for Yang Hua to answer.

"My typing speed is about 100 words per minute. As for programming... my results in VB should be able to please you. When I was in year three, I participated in creating a website and software design. As for the database... I don't know much about it." Yang Hua answered honestly.

"Mhm... Come to our company for an interview." The man on the other side thought for a moment and said to Yang Hua, "Come out from the north gate of your school and take bus number 96. Get off at Huanghe Road Station, and then you'll see our company. The recruitment office is on the first floor of our company. You'll see the sign when you enter the lobby."

"Alright! I'll be right there!" Yang Hua, who was informed for the first time that he could participate in the interview, immediately rushed out of the school's north gate excitedly. The distance between Huanghe Road and Lianhua University was very far. As soon as he got on the bus, Yang Hua realized that Huanghe Road was actually the second last station in the middle of the densely packed number of bus stops on Route 96.

Lianhua University was located in the suburbs, which was the first stop of the bus route. Fortunately, it was the first stop, so Yang Hua found a seat comfortably.

However, when Yang Hua set off, it was the peak hour of the afternoon traffic, so after a few stops, the bus was already full. By the time the bus had traveled one-third of the route, it was already so crowded that there was no place to stand.

In the summer, the crowded bus was probably the most similar to a steamer besides a steel factory. The people sitting in the seats were better off, but those who were standing and squeezed together looked like they had just been fished out of the water when they got off the bus. However, under such circumstances, a pregnant woman with a big belly got onto the bus with the help of a girl who looked to be 17 or 18 years old.

As soon as the two of them squeezed onto the bus, the people on the bus were very understanding and made way for them to pass through the seats. Everyone could tell that this pregnant woman had reached a point where she absolutely could not be squeezed.

However, even though they had to make way, complaints were still unavoidable. Most of the passengers complained about the pregnant woman's husband, "What a stingy person! His wife's stomach is already so big! Even if he had to borrow money, you should let her take a taxi home!"

Hearing her husband being complained about like this, the pregnant woman seemed a little helpless. She smiled bitterly and walked to the seat with the girl's help. Coincidentally, the person in that seat was Yang Hua.

Seeing such a situation, Yang Hua naturally had nothing to hesitate about. He had to give up his seat. So he stood up and let the pregnant woman take his seat.

"Thank you." Although it was only right for pregnant women to enjoy such a treatment, she still had to thank him.

"Why didn't you take a taxi? It's too inconvenient to take the bus." Yang Hua was also puzzled by the pregnant woman's behavior. Judging from the way she and the girl dressed, they were definitely not the kind of people who were reluctant to spend money on a taxi.

"There was no taxi. We waited for more than an hour. If we wait any longer, my sister will get a heatstroke! Do you think I want to take the bus?" Before the pregnant woman could say anything, the 17-year-old girl glared at Yang Hua and said to him in a bad mood.

"Oh, I see." Yang Hua nodded. In such a hot summer, it was understandable that taxis were in short supply at noon.

"Xiaoxiao, don't be rude." The pregnant woman looked at the little girl with a hint of blame, then smiled at Yang Hua and said, "I'm sorry."

"It's alright." Yang Hua returned her apology with a smile.

"You have a good temper. It's rare for young people these days to have such a good temper." For some reason, the pregnant woman sighed.

"Hehe, is that so?" Yang Hua was a little embarrassed. Looking at the pregnant woman, he felt that she was actually not much older than him. She actually called him "young man."

"Mhm." The pregnant woman nodded with certainty and asked with a smile, "What do you do?"

"I haven't found a job yet. I'm going for an interview now."

"Oh? You don't have a job yet?"

"I went to Lianhua University, so it's not easy to find a job. I might not be able to pass the interview this time." Yang Hua said with a bitter smile.

"Tsk, a third-rate university." The girl next to him obviously didn't have a good impression of Lianhua University. When she heard the name, she immediately muttered in a low voice.

Although the girl's muttering was not loud, it couldn't escape the ears of the pregnant woman and Yang Hua, who were close at hand. Yang Hua immediately revealed an awkward expression, while the pregnant woman glared at the girl even more sternly.

"What are you going to do if you don't pass the interview?" The pregnant woman seemed to admire Yang Hua's patience and asked with concern.

"Mhm, I'll continue to look for a job." Yang Hua sighed and said, "However, it's hard to say if I can find one. The last time I applied to be a waiter in a restaurant, no one wanted me. They thought I was too old."

"Oh? How old are you?" The pregnant woman looked at Yang Hua in surprise.

"Twenty-three years old. I'll be twenty-four in a month."

"That's quite old." The pregnant woman frowned as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she suddenly took out a business card from her purse and handed it to Yang Hua. She smiled and said, "If you really can't find a job, call me. I happen to be lacking people there."

"Hmm?" Yang Hua took the business card and glanced at it. On it was written, "Su Shuhua, General Manager of Fanghua Bar, contact number XXXXXXXX."

"This bar belongs to my husband and me. A few days ago, a waiter got into a fight with a customer and was fired. We're lacking a suitable person. I see that you have a good appearance and a good temper. Anyway, you don't need any professional skills to be a waiter. If you're interested, you can try it.

"However, it is not a good job, and it would be best if you can find something else. You guys are graduating in July, right? I'll keep this position for you for a month. As long as you think it through, you can find me anytime. But if you found a job, remember to call me and let me know." The pregnant woman, Su Shuhua, said to Yang Hua with a smile.

"Alright, definitely. Thank you." With a grateful expression, Yang Hua carefully put the business card into his pocket. At least this could be understood as finding a job in City T that would allow him to stay. He thought of this excitedly.
