If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 493 - : Call Him ‘Husband

Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Call Him ‘Husband

Xu Chaomu wore a clean white shirt, and her mood had now seemingly lifted.

Her heart had been like riding a roller coaster these past few days, full of ups and downs. Thankfully, the person she cared about cared about her too. As for those irrelevant people, let them be.

She wasn’t a saint, capable of making every single person satisfied.

The mall wasn’t far from the Shen Group building, and she quickly arrived at the base of the building.

Lifting her head, a gentle curve formed at the corners of her lips.

The four bold and forceful characters of “Shen Group” shimmered in the sunlight with a golden glow.

Xu Chaomu stood underneath the building, staring at those four characters.

She hoped that Shen’s would always have a foothold in C City and that Shen Chi would always be the helmsman of the group.

Shen Chi was capable, had boldness and presence; she didn’t believe that Shen Cexian would hand over the group to Shen Shihan.

Moreover, even if Shen Cexian impulsively decided to pass the group to Shen Shihan, would Zhou Ran agree to it?

Clearly not.

There was a constant flow of people coming and going from the Shen Group building. Xu Chaomu stood for a while before heading into the lobby on the first floor.

There were really a lot of people on the first floor, not quiet, quite lively.

She liked crowds and buzz, and even more, she hoped that Shen’s would always thrive.

After several interviews, Xu Chaomu familiarly made her way to the HR department’s floor.

The elevator was packed with several people, and Xu Chaomu squeezed in as well.

Two girls, who seemed familiar with each other, stood to one side whispering.

“I heard that for this final interview, you need connections to be ultimately accepted. Are we just here to make up the numbers?”

“It’s good to come and see, even if we are making up the numbers, I don’t have any expectations of getting in.”

“Let me tell you, a senior told me, if you want to get into Shen Group, you need someone on top, or you need someone on top. Get it?” freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

The other young girl, clearly too naive, took a good while before she suddenly understood!

“Ah, that’s normal, you know, the unspoken rules!”

Xu Chaomu reflected thoughtfully, either you need someone on top, or you need someone on top? Quite artistic.

So what was she counted as?

Soon, the elevator reached the interview floor, and Xu Chaomu, along with everyone else, went to the waiting room to wait.

There were several test papers on the table in the waiting room. Xu Chaomu casually picked up a warm-up paper to look at.

It featured all sorts of questions, like “If your design work was plagiarized, how would you handle it”, “How to maintain good interpersonal relations in the department”…

Xu Chaomu flipped through a few pages; these were all very simple questions, nothing difficult.

She guessed that if she got in later, the questions would probably not be so simple.

A few young girls gathered together to chat: “A senior sent me the internal interview questions from Shen Group.”

“Really? Show me, show me!” Several girls crowded around.

Xu Chaomu blinked; internal questions? Despite her being a person with connections, she hadn’t received them.

“I heard that President Shen himself will be conducting the interviews today.”

“Really? I saw him on TV, one word, handsome!”

Xu Chaomu blinked again, Shen Chi was still out meeting. Besides, being a president, why would he do something so low-level?

“Well, even if I don’t get accepted later, it’s still worth it; this trip definitely wouldn’t be a waste.”

The few young girls were excited, and so was Xu Chaomu.

If she was accepted, in the future, she could work in the same building as Shen Chi.

In the future, could she then see him every day? Wouldn’t that make it difficult for him to flirt with girls?

Soon, two other girls from the design department were called.

The order was determined by a draw, and Xu Chaomu happened to draw the third slot; she was in no hurry.

After everyone else had come out, only then did she enter.

Upon entering, she saw a row of interviewers, all dressed in very formal black suits.

Of course, there was no Shen Chi.

“Good morning, examiners.”

“Good morning, please take a seat.”

Xu Chaomu greeted them and then took her seat, awaiting the questions.

After answering a few questions, Xu Chaomu submitted her design work, bowed politely, and exited the interview room.

The design department’s interview was over, and several managers from the design department left the main conference room and went to the small conference room to discuss.

“Of the three candidates interviewed for our design department, what do you think, who performed better?” asked the head of the design department first.

“Each has their own merits, the first girl has good communication skills, the second has a nice personality, gentle and graceful, the third has good work.” said the deputy head fairly.

“All are graduates from prestigious schools, no complaints in terms of education. However, based on the interviews, I’m more inclined towards the first one; she has very good oratory skills.” a middle-aged woman commented.

“We are the design department, not the publicity department. Being eloquent doesn’t seem to be an advantage,” the discussion became heated.

“Well, if you all think that the work is the most important factor, let’s choose the third one.”

“No, no, no, that won’t do. The third one is young, might be immature.”

“Since neither the first nor the third will do, let’s go with the second one; she has a nice personality, and her work isn’t bad either.”

The middle-aged woman insisted on the first candidate: “I still have to say, this first girl isn’t just a top student from a prestigious school in London, but her father is the head of the Foreign Affairs Office in C City. A lot of Shen’s goods go through her father.”

The others fell a bit silent, but the deputy head still remarked, “Shen Group has always been quite fair in recruitment.”

The woman said indifferently, “Her father called me last night, said his daughter’s dream since her university days was to join Shen Group. He asked us to ensure…”

The woman stopped midsentence, picked up the tea in front of her and drank without a sound.

“Is she a relative of yours?” the deputy head inquired.

“No more than a friend. Her father said, if his daughter gets in, a lot of things will be easier to deal with in the future.”

The group exchanged looks, somewhat silent.

Though since Shen Cexian’s time, the emphasis had always been on meritocracy, without too many entangled interests, everyone was still calculating in their hearts.

Another man asked, “What about the other two? Do they have any connections?”

“The second one’s parents are ordinary employees of a state-owned enterprise; the third’s parents are deceased. Both are unmarried.”

“I see.” This time, even the head was silent.

As these few had gone to discuss in the small conference room, Xu Chaomu quietly left.

The results wouldn’t be out until tomorrow; she decided to head back to the Shen family house to wait.

Unexpectedly, just as she had finished gathering her documents, her phone rang.

It was nobody else but Shen Chi calling.

Xu Chaomu was sitting outside the waiting room, answering the call. It was noisy inside the waiting room, but quite quiet outside.

“Why do you have time to call me this morning?” Xu Chaomu asked.

“Call me ‘husband’, and I’ll tell you why.”

“If you won’t say it, forget it, I’m hanging up.” After saying that, Xu Chaomu pouted her lips and pretended to hang up the call.

But after pretending for quite a few seconds, the call hadn’t disconnected.
