Chapter 263: World of Ages 15: Pie

Time passed quickly and it was the weekend. Zuo Zhizhi arrived at the agreed place early. Now she and Gu Jiqing could not meet at school, so they could only meet outside.

Today was the most relaxing day for Gu Jiqing since he started working, so the two naturally chose to go on a date.

Without going too far, the two of them came to Houhai for a walk. There were many men and women walking there, so it was a nice place.

Zuo Zhizhi told Gu Jiqing about the recent events and said with some relief: "Fortunately, you have already secured this job, otherwise it would be terrible if someone reported you!"

Gu Jiqing raised an eyebrow slightly, not taking it seriously. "That's stupid of her. We were just ordinary friends, and telling others about the job recruitment at this time! Although it's possible for both of us to pass the exam, there's a greater chance that only one of us will pass, or even that neither of us will."

"If both of them fail, then it won't matter. But if only one of them passes, no matter who they are, they will definitely fall out!"

"This is inevitable!"

Zuo Zhizhi nodded in agreement: "That's right, jobs are so hard to come by now. After all, no one wants to go to the countryside. Everyone wants a good job!"

"To test others with their work at this time, I'm afraid not many people can withstand such a test!"

Although this job is not very important to Zuo Zhizhi, it has a big premise, that is, she has many golden fingers.

First of all, she has a boyfriend so she doesn't have to be forced to go to the countryside. Secondly, even if she is forced to go to the countryside, she can live a good life with the help of the golden finger. Even if she doesn't have the golden finger, her family has already introduced her to a girl in the city. Although the conditions are not very good, there is no such thing as going to the countryside!

But this is only for me. For others, the job opportunity is extremely valuable!

Gu Jiqing suddenly walked up to Zuo Zhizhi. They were originally walking side by side, but suddenly someone walked in front of them, which scared Zuo Zhizhi.

"What are you doing? Can you please walk properly!"

Zuo Zhizhi spoke somewhat unhappily. She was originally thinking about work and was a little absent-minded. Suddenly, someone ran in front of her and she was almost scared!

Gu Jiqing smiled and said, "Then I'll give you a gift, okay?"

Before Zuo Zhizhi could speak, he leaned over to her ear and whispered, "I've already told my parents about us. She has a job opening!"

Because this matter was quite important, Gu Jiqing's voice was very low, but to Zuo Zhizhi it was no less than thunder.

"Job quota?" Zuo Zhizhi asked in a low voice, not quite daring to believe her ears.

You know, jobs are very precious at that time. She didn't expect that she and Gu Jiqing were just in a romantic relationship, but the other party had already asked for a job quota from his family.

Seeing that no one was around, Gu Jiqing finally started to explain, "Actually, my mom had introduced me to a job as a salesperson in a department store. Although it's a good job, it's mostly filled with women. As a man, how could I possibly hang out with women like that? So my dad found me this electrician's master!"

"I originally thought that sales position was gone, but I didn't expect there's still a vacancy. I told my parents about us and mentioned the job, and they agreed!"

Gu Jiqing didn't ask in detail. After all, the other party had already agreed. There was no need to worry about where the job came from. But no matter what, as long as there was a job, it was good!

Upon hearing that it was the salesperson, Zuo Zhizhi was even more satisfied, but still a little hesitant: "Such a good job, it's not appropriate to give it to me all of a sudden, right?"

After all, this is a salesperson, one of the eight most popular salespeople. No matter what sales position he is in, he is definitely a popular person!

Gu's parents must have put in a lot of effort to get this job!

If they were already married, that would be one thing, but now they are just in an ordinary relationship, so they naturally cannot owe each other such a big thing.

So although she was a little tempted, Zuo Zhizhi still refused: "I must owe them a big favor for getting this job. Why don't I return it? After all, such a good job is so hard to find!"

Gu Jiqing didn't expect Zuo Zhizhi to refuse, so he quickly explained, "Don't worry, my parents said this job was originally prepared for me! The position has already been reserved, and no one else would want it now! Besides, if such a good job were to be sold, it would be a huge loss. It's better to give it to you!"

"We were meant to be a family anyway. It was only a matter of time! It would be so impressive to tell others that we both work!"

Zuo Zhizhi thought about it carefully, then nodded and said, "I really like this job, but it would be bad if I owed others too many favors because of it! So why don't you go back and ask your family what this job is all about?"

"If you owe someone a big favor, it's best to pay it back quickly. Don't worry about me, I don't mind!"

Gu Jiqing understood what Zuo Zhizhi meant. Although he felt a little helpless, he nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll go back and ask them!"

Zuo Zhizhi didn't take this matter to heart. After all, a salesperson's job was definitely a favor their family owed to the elders.

If I take this job casually, I will definitely be inferior to others after I get married.

What's more, she is not short of money, so there is no need for her to sacrifice the rest of her life for this job.

Gu Jiqing's work went very smoothly. Even though he was the only one at home and he was a formal worker, the two of them could live a good life in the city.

But she didn't expect that after school the next day, Zuo Zhizhi saw Gu Jiqing at the school gate.

He pulled Zuo Zhizhi aside and made sure no one else was around before speaking: "I asked around, and this job was offered to me by the former department store manager who owed my mom a big favor!"

"No one in our family needs it right now, so it's just the perfect gift!"

Gu Jiqing said this, showing off his white teeth. However, he quickly realized that something was wrong and immediately added: "But the betrothal gifts should still be given. This is just one of them."

Zuo Zhizhi was relieved. As long as the other party didn't owe a favor to someone important, it would be fine.

This salesperson's job is indeed good news for me.

After all, if you stay at home every day, there will inevitably be a lot of complicated and trivial things to do.

But if you have a formal job, the burden on you will be much lighter.

What's more, no matter when, as long as you have no money, you will undoubtedly become the disadvantaged party!

Money is king!
