Chapter 4

As soon as Edmend Qin entered the room, Ella Jiang immediately became the God of plague, and the people around immediately hid far away from her, in order not to make trouble and let master find fault. Ella Jiang walked up to Edmend Qin and requested to look for a job tomorrow.

"Find a job? Do you mean that our Qin family can't support you?" Edmend Qin complained.

"I don't need your family to support me. I can support myself. I just inform you today, in case you look too ignorant." Ella Jiang said firmly.

Edmend Qin gave Ella Jiang with a credit card, and then was immediately thrown back by Ella Jiang. "I've told you that I can support myself. Really, your understanding ability is really bad." Ella Jiang turned around and left in disdain, completely ignoring Edmend Qin behind her. She was too angry to say a word.

Edmend Qin took out her phone and called, "is that Fred? Contact more design units tomorrow and tell their leaders that they can't recruit a woman named Ella Jiang. Tell them that it's the idea of the Qinfinancial group. Right... No, don't call her Mrs. Don't ask too much. Just tell them that that woman's name is Ella Jiang."

On the second morning, Ella Jiang went out in high spirits. But at noon, she came back with a depressed face.

She had looked for several design companies the whole morning, but they refused to hire her. Ella Jiang felt that her conditions were not bad. It was not so difficult to find a job in the past. With several years of work experience, she could not find a job. She asked the recruiters why they didn't hire her, but they didn't tell her the reason. This really gave Ella Jiang a headache.

Ella Jiang had no choice but to encourage herself. It was only her first day here, and perhaps she hadn't met a suitable company yet.

However, three days had passed, but there was still no progress in Ella Jiang. At the last company's interview, Ella Jiang kept an eye on it and waited a little longer in the company after the interview. Sure enough, on the way out of the water room, the two interviewers chatted, "Miss Jiang is really good. If the Qin financial group hadn't told me in advance, I might have hired her directly. I guess she has offended the people of the Qin financial group. With her design theory and ability, in fact, she is very precious."

It was not until then that Ella Jiang became enlightened. It turned out to be Edmend Qin's trick. He had promised me to work, but he had played this trick behind my back. Wasn't he just unwilling to let me work? But I have to come out to look for her. I, Ella Jiang, am not a person who will easily admit defeat. There are so many companies in the world. Let's see how powerful you are to block me one by one.

At noon, she was not even in the mood to go home for lunch. She found a nearby restaurant and ordered a bowl of rice and a small dish.

Ella Jiang suddenly found a wallet on the seat next. She picked it up and opened it. There were cash, credit card and ID card, with the name of the wallet owner: Jeremy Xie.

Without thinking too much, Ella Jiang walked to the front desk and asked the waiter to tell the receptionist who had lost her wallet and went to the front desk to claim it. Perhaps the owner of the wallet would be found soon.

Sure enough, not long after, a gentle gentleman hurried to the front desk, took his wallet and asked something. Then the receptionist pointed to the direction of Ella Jiang.

"Thank you so much, ma'am. I have my ID card in it." Jeremy Xie thanked Ella Jiang who was having lunch with her wallet.

Ella Jiang raised her head and saw a strange man with dashing eyebrows looking at her with a smile. She also smiled and said, "you're just... Jeremy Xie. You're welcome."

At this time, Jeremy Xie glanced at the resume beside her and picked it up. "Design? Are you looking for a job?" Jeremy Xie asked.

Ella Jiang put the bowl and chopsticks aside, motioned the waiter to pay the bill, and said, "yes, but I haven't found it yet." The waiter came over and said, "your bill has been settled by this gentleman."

"Really? Thank you, Mr. Xie. I have to go now." After saying that, Ella Jiang tried to take hER resume, but he heard Jeremy Xie's pleasant voice, "my design department is recruiting new employees. Miss Jiang, would you like to work in my company?"

Ella Jiang wondered if she had misheard. How could such a windfall hit her. It was a good chance. Ella Jiang replied in a hurry, "but don't you need to have an interview first? To be honest, I've been looking for a job for a few days, but there's no progress. It's really my lucky star!" She was so lucky that she could get a job by accident after picking up her wallet. It seemed that her hope of Edmend Qin would be missed.

She followed Jeremy Xie to his company. Looking at this simple office building, Ella Jiang felt an indescribable sense of relief.

The colleagues were also surprised. It was amazing that Mr. Xie brought back a powerful general in the design field in such a short time of buying lunch.

Ella Jiang made a simple self introduction and said, "Hello, everyone. My name is Ella Jiang. I'm really honored to work with you. I hope you can take care of me in the future!" After saying that, she made a bow, and the enthusiastic colleagues applauded together.

"Well, after you know your new colleagues, you can do your own things." With a wave of Jeremy Xie's hand, people scattered.

"This is your desk. You can work here from now on." As Jeremy Xie spoke, he handed a stack of documents to Ella Jiang. "Take this design and have a look. I'll arrange the specific work for you tomorrow."

As for Edmend Qin, he immediately knew that Ella Jiang had found a job. Fred stood there, feeling ashamed. He didn't know what to say after reporting the situation.

"It's not your fault. Who would have thought that she would look for some new small companies? It's okay. You can go now." Fred heaved a sigh of relief.

Edmend Qin didn't think she could do anything to this woman. Housework, scolding, isolation, money... Were all broken up in front of Ella Jiang, which didn't work at all. According to Edmend Qin's estimation, it would be a long-term battle to get this woman to sign on the divorce agreement. Forget it. I'll figure it out later. I don't believe that I can't even handle a woman.

With work, Ella Jiang felt relaxed and became busy. She didn't forget to clean the room in the morning. After breakfast, she would bring her homemade breakfast, and after work, she would light up the bedroom until very late. Life became more and more regular. Although she was a little tired, she felt very fulfilled and comfortable. Sure enough, people should have a job, so that they could have passion.
