After resolving the issues of the two kids, Xu Zixi finally came to the day of the interview for the project manager of the Bay Reconstruction Project at Pei Corporation.
For this interview, Xu Zixi had specially dressed up today. To add a sense of maturity to her appearance, her originally soft and smooth long straight hair was curled into sexy waves. She was wearing a set of high - end handmade dresses from brand C, which outlined her slender waist vividly. A designer cross - body bag from brand A served as an accessory, adding a touch of charm to her elegance.
Yuan Xiaoxu stared at her blankly, his little mouth hanging open.
"Mommy, you're so pretty!"
Yuan Xiaoxuan was more sensitive and asked, "Mommy, are you going to start going to work today?"
"No, but Mommy does have something to do and needs to go out today. You guys stay at home and study hard with Teacher Chen. If you're hungry, ask Aunt Li to make you some snacks. If you miss Mommy, just call Mommy with this watch, okay?"
Although Yuan Xiaoxuan was a bit reluctant, he still obediently hugged Xu Zixi's face and kissed it, saying sweetly,
"Mommy, go ahead and don't worry. Xuanxuan will take good care of younger brother."
Not to be outdone, Yuan Xiaoxu also gave a smooch on the other side, his eyes twinkling with stars. "Mommy, remember to bring something yummy for baby when you come back!"
"Got it, little glutton." Xu Zixi pinched his chubby cheek and then went out with confidence.
It was still Hu Yuankang who picked up and dropped off Xu Zixi. However, today he didn't drive his showy pink BMW but changed to a black one of the same model. Xu Zixi almost didn't recognize it.
"Why did you change the car today?" Xu Zixi asked.
Hu Yuankang patted his chest. "Miss is going for an interview. Of course, a more sedate car should be used. This can highlight Miss's status."
His words reminded Xu Zixi.
"After the interview later, accompany me to buy a car." Xu Zixi said.
Hu Yuankang was greatly shocked. "Miss, did I do something wrong? Why do you suddenly want to buy a car by yourself? Do you not like this car? Then I'll change the pink one back next time..."
"What, do you really think you're my full - time driver?" Xu Zixi found it funny. "If the interview goes smoothly today, I'll start to be an office worker from now on. I can't always trouble you every day. Moreover... I should face some things by myself."
Hu Yuankang quickly said, "It's not troublesome! It's my honor to serve Miss. As long as Miss can give me a little guidance on investment... Hehe, I'll be satisfied."
Xu Zixi didn't comment, but on the way, she took the initiative to talk to Hu Yuankang about the recent stock market trends. Hu Yuankang had been closely following the stock charts recently. Nothing could escape his eyes. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and his tone became excited.
"Miss, do you know what big event happened at Pei Corporation yesterday?"
Xu Zixi raised her eyebrows. "Oh? What happened?"
Hu Yuankang told her what had happened at the Pei's shopping mall last night. Towards the end, he couldn't help but slap his thigh and laugh. "Miss, you don't know how wonderful Pei Weiwei's expression was at that time. Whether it was the power outage or the reinstallation of the system at Pei Corporation, they couldn't turn off those videos. It has been playing for almost 12 hours now. The passenger flow in Pei's shopping mall has dropped to an all - time low. All the customers have been diverted to several of Jiang's shopping malls. And there are many merchants who Pei Weiwei owed money to, and they are making a fuss and asking the Pei family to settle the accounts. Their loss this time is at least hundreds of millions. I don't know which master did it. It really gave Miss a good vent of anger!"
Xu Zixi, the "master" herself, blinked her eyes. "It seems that this Pei Weiwei has offended quite a few people in normal times. Otherwise, it wouldn't have caused such a stir just because of one video."
"Exactly. This young lady of the Pei family... Tsk tsk." Hu Yuankang shook his head. Suddenly, he remembered that the place they were going to was Pei Corporation. He couldn't help but worry again. "Miss, are you really going to have an interview at Pei Corporation? The Pei family is in such a state now... And what if you meet Pei Weiwei inside..."
"A defeated opponent is nothing to be afraid of." Xu Zixi said with a nonchalant smile.
Soon, Hu Yuankang dropped Xu Zixi off at the headquarters of Pei Corporation.
Xu Zixi had a good figure, a beautiful face, and was dressed in all big - brand clothes from head to toe. Coupled with the enhanced aura after changing her hairstyle, she looked both beautiful and valiant, just like a wealthy young lady coming to inspect her own industry. So when she walked into Pei Corporation, the security guard at the door just let her in directly, while another girl in professional attire who was following closely behind Xu Zixi was stopped and asked to show her ID.
"The woman in front didn't show her ID either. Why are you only stopping me?" the girl said dissatisfiedly. Reluctantly, she took out her ID and handed it to the security guard. "I'm here for an interview!"
The security guard said, "Do you know how much her whole set of clothes costs? And judging from her temperament, she doesn't seem like an ordinary person. She must be a friend of our Young Master Pei or Miss Pei. Of course, she doesn't need to show her ID."
After the ID verification was completed, the girl rushed inside in a hurry. But at the front desk, she saw Xu Zixi smiling and saying to the receptionist,
"Hello, I'm Yuan Xi, the interviewee for the project manager of the Bay Reconstruction Project today."
The receptionist finally came back to her senses from the shock and quickly said, "Yes, yes. Please wait a moment. I'll check the list right away." She opened the list of today's interviewees. The name Yuan Xi was ranked second from the bottom. She really was an interviewee!
"Hello, the verification is completed. Please take the elevator to the Human Resources Department on the seventh floor for the interview. I wish you a successful interview."
Xu Zixi took back her ID and turned to walk towards the elevator. After the girl in professional attire behind her checked the information, she quickly turned around and caught up with Xu Zixi, asking in disbelief, "You... You're really here for the interview for the project manager?"
Xu Zixi smiled faintly. "Why, don't I look like it?"
The other girl said, "You look like a rich young lady at first glance! Just now, the security guard at the door also said that you were a friend of Young Master Pei or Miss Pei. I also thought..."
"A rich young lady also needs to make money to eat." Xu Zixi playfully winked at her.
The elevator quickly reached the seventh floor. With a "ding", the elevator door slowly opened. Xu Zixi calmly stepped out. Her extremely beautiful face and fashionable outfit instantly attracted everyone's attention, which was in sharp contrast to the dejected look of the girl in professional attire behind her.
There were a total of 8 interviewees short - listed for the Bay Reconstruction Project, and they had all arrived on time. When they learned that Xu Zixi was also an interviewee, the others all showed obvious hostility towards her.
Everyone was a competitor, either competing in terms of education or work experience. Now there was someone who might be competing with her background. How could people not be panicked?
However, when an oily - looking man with a receding hairline glanced at Xu Zixi's resume, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy and immediately sneered,
"I don't know how Pei Corporation selected the candidates. Even someone who hasn't graduated from college and has no work experience can come to compete for the project manager. It's really a joke."
