Chapter 376 It was strange when Wang Jianjun was alive
Fu Huaiyi sighed, "Did I still wake you up?"
"It's okay, I'll fall asleep in a bit." She grabbed the alarm clock from the bedside table, checked the time, and then said, "It's already eleven o'clock, why are you back so late?"
"I had to come back since I didn't tell you in advance."
"Then you should have told me in advance."
"I usually don't work overtime this late, but it's all Lu Jiangting's fault. He took the day off again today."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"Anyway, it's either his father or his mother who has something to do. This time he asked for leave because his mother was having surgery."
Lin Yuyao remembered that Wang Cuilan shouldn't have gotten sick these past few years; she should have lived for another ten years or so.
Even if life under Fang Qing's care is not as good as in her previous life, she shouldn't be sick now.
"What's up with her?"
"Eyes, I heard that someone's eyes are about to go blind and they need to get cataract surgery."
Lin Yuyao was even more puzzled.
In her past life, she would never have had it cut off. She tried to persuade him several times, but Lu Jiangting eventually told her that if she didn't want to, then so be it, and she gave up.
What's going on? She's willing to have cataract surgery.
"Fang Qing is paying?" she suddenly asked.
Fu Huaiyi said, "It should be. Lu Jiangting has spent almost all of his money from the past few years of work on subsidizing Fang Qing. Now that he doesn't need to subsidize Fang Qing anymore, his father is sick and all the money has been spent. Where would he get the money to get his mother's cataract surgery? We ran into Fang Qing and Lu Jiangting withdrawing money the other day, five thousand yuan. It should be this money."
That makes sense. She's reluctant to spend her son's money, but she'd be willing to spend Fang Qing's.
However, Fang Qing didn't suffer a loss either, as the old lady could help her with chores after she recovered.
“You guys are all so busy, and Lu Jiangting still takes leave every few days. Old Wang has no choice but to fire him.”
"How could that be? We're short of talent in this area right now. Lu Jiangting may not be good at handling interpersonal relationships, but he's technically skilled. As long as he doesn't commit a serious crime like murder or arson, Old Wang will do everything he can to get him out of trouble. He's too reluctant to fire him."
Lin Yuyao was naturally aware of his achievements.
She had given it her all back then, and seeing him getting better and better naturally made her feel resentful, which is only human nature.
"what happened?"
Lin Yuyao hugged his neck tightly, "I'm having nightmares again."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm always here, go to sleep."
"I can't sleep."
"Then..." His hand reached into his clothes.
"No." She pressed his arm down and whispered, "Talk to me."
"Okay, what do you want to say?"
"Tell me about your... college days."
"Why do you ask about this?"
"I've never been there. I'm curious and I'm envious."
Fu Huaiyi kissed the top of her head and said, "You're unlucky. You're only good at Chinese. Otherwise, you would still have a chance to go to university."
Lin Yuyao: "What do you mean?"
"I also have a serious imbalance in my academic performance."
Ok?
She had never heard him say that.
"What are you biased towards?"
"I'm bad at Chinese, or more precisely, I'm bad at writing essays. I never write essays for exams."
Lin Yuyao looked surprised. "Really?"
"real."
"I don't believe you, you're not being honest."
Fu Huaiyi: "..."
Why would I lie to you about this? It's absolutely true.
"Getting into university is so difficult, and you're only good at one subject and you don't even write essays, how did you manage to get in?"
"I memorized it; the notes at the beginning weren't too bad. As for the essay, my mom wrote it for me."
Lin Yuyao was shocked, "Mom took the exam for you?"
"What are you thinking? My mom wrote one essay on each of several topics for me a long time ago, and then made me memorize them. No matter who sets the topic, I'm bound to get one that's right. If I get one that I haven't memorized, then I can only blame my bad luck. But it doesn't matter, as long as I write it, I can get some points, it won't affect my college application."
Lin Yuyao thought about it carefully, and it really was true.
Therefore, if you're going to specialize in one subject, you have to specialize in the right one so as not to affect the overall situation.
Her... it's heartbreaking to think about.
Fu Huaiyi told her some interesting stories from his school days, and soon the conversation turned to university, where he met Lu Jiangting and the others.
He was the richest person in his circle, and when people heard that he had 500 yuan of pocket money every month, they often made him a sucker.
He became aloof and always acted like he was not to be messed with, actually because he wanted to avoid being taken advantage of.
After all, his family stopped giving him living expenses after he started working.
However, his aloofness is only towards those he's not very close to. He has a close relationship with Yi Yunshuo, and his relationship with Lu Jiangting is also alright.
It's one thing to just say it, but Lin Yuyao felt that his relationship with Lu Jiangting used to be better than his relationship with Yi Yunshuo. It was only when he gradually realized that something was wrong with him that Yi Yunshuo's position in his heart slowly surpassed that of Lu Jiangting.
After all, before they broke up, he and Yi Yunshuo had gone to their hometown to attend their wedding.
"What about Wang Jianjun?"
He mentioned Yi Yunshuo and Lu Jiangting, but he hasn't mentioned Wang Jianjun yet.
Fu Huaiyi sighed and said, "Actually, the four of us were in the same dormitory back then. I was initially close to Lu Jiangting."
Lin Yuyao: "..." I knew it, she guessed right.
"Lu Jiangting is quite smart; he did a great job on his research. Yi Yunshuo is a bit slow; I didn't know him at first, but my intuition tells me he definitely likes to hang out with smart people. But Wang Jianjun..."
He shook his head. "My relationship with him is neither good nor bad. I'm not really that familiar with him."
That's strange. How come they've been in the same dorm for years and still aren't familiar with each other?
"why?"
"He doesn't like to talk. He just sits and stares blankly when he has nothing to do. He only occasionally gets to say a few words to Lu Jiangting."
Wang Jianjun, whether in his past life or this one, seems to live in another world.
Fu Huaiyi had known him for many years, yet he had no idea what kind of person he was and was not familiar with him.
This piqued his curiosity; what kind of person was it that had influenced their fates?
"Has he never talked about his family?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this?"
"I'm just curious."
"You're asking me about this? I honestly don't know. I'll call Ashu over when I have a holiday, and you can ask him. He's the kind of person who can chat with even the coldest person. Wang Jianjun can also get impatient and say a few words when Ashu bothers him occasionally."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
Yi Yunshuo is truly a talented individual.
……
After Lin Yuyao handed over the recruitment work to Song Qin and Chen Bing, they quickly recruited the personnel they needed.
The salaries consist of a base salary plus bonuses, and the two reporters are reimbursed for their actual expenses if they travel outside the area.
If they cannot eat at the company cafeteria due to work reasons, she can reimburse them at the normal price.
With all the work taken care of, the most tired people now are herself and Ye Xiaotong.
She had to manage finances, integrate content, and serialize the novel.
Besides doing odd jobs, Ye Xiaotong runs to the post office and bank every day, and also manages the meals for a group of people.
