Cen Xiu Cheng’s face darkened. This person clearly had ill intentions, but he dared to set his sights on him?
“How do you know what I want?” Cen Xiu Cheng retorted.
The man in sunglasses chuckled, “For someone to be wandering around this area for so long, what else could they want? Don’t worry, my product is guaranteed to satisfy you!”
Cen Xiu Cheng’s brow furrowed even tighter, but he didn’t want to alert the snake. He asked in a deep voice, “Let me see the goods first.”
“Come over here!” The man in sunglasses beckoned him.
Following the man in sunglasses, Cen Xiu Cheng went to a nearby milk tea shop.
At the milk tea shop, the man in sunglasses fiddled with his phone for a bit, then proudly handed it to Cen Xiu Cheng, “Look!”
Cen Xiu Cheng focused his gaze. It displayed a large heading: Taoxun Recruitment Exam Prediction. Below it were densely packed predicted questions.
Cen Xiu Cheng: …
So, was this man in sunglasses mistaking him for a Taoxun job applicant? And one who lacked confidence, thinking he couldn't even pass the written test?
This man in sunglasses indeed had ill intentions, but he was just a seller of exam questions… Wait!
Was Taoxun so popular that even these hawkers were now predicting exam questions?
The man in sunglasses launched into a torrent of words, “Bro, these practice questions are absolutely authentic! If you study according to this, I guarantee you’ll pass the Taoxun recruitment exam! Of course, this set of questions isn’t expensive, only three hundred yuan per set! Of course, if you’re not confident in yourself, I have ten sets of practice questions in total, and I’ll give you a discount, all for two thousand five hundred, a really good deal…”
“I’m not here to interview at Taoxun!” Cen Xiu Cheng said with a dark expression.
The man in sunglasses immediately became displeased, “Come on, brother, you’re not going to say it’s too expensive, are you? Let me tell you, spending two thousand five hundred to get a chance to join Taoxun is definitely a profit for you! Who doesn’t know that Taoxun has high salaries and good benefits?
Ordinary employees there are already getting fourteen months’ salary, and management positions start at fifteen months’ salary!
And Taoxun also provides housing for employees. Haven’t you seen the houses their employees show off on T-Live? The renovations in those houses are move-in ready, enough to make anyone envious!
Right now, so many people are scrambling to get into Taoxun, even if it’s just to sweep the floor! For just two thousand five hundred, you get such a great opportunity, what are you still hesitating about?”
The man in sunglasses spoke flowery words, but Cen Xiu Cheng remained unmoved. He knew very well that most people who sell exam questions are scammers.
However, seeing the other party’s determined stance to fool him, Cen Xiu Cheng asked indifferently, “Can your practice questions guarantee that I’ll get hired by Taoxun after buying them?”
“Of course!” the man in sunglasses promised, patting his chest.
“If it’s such a great opportunity, why don’t you go yourself?” Cen Xiu Cheng countered.
“Ah, ah, this…” The man in sunglasses was stumped by his question, but he quickly recovered, “Don’t you think I want to? It’s just that my academic qualifications aren’t enough to meet the job requirements!”
“Then my academic qualifications aren’t enough either,” Cen Xiu Cheng said.
The man in sunglasses immediately said, “Bro, that’s easy! You pay a little more money, and I have a friend who can help you get the required academic qualifications…”
Cen Xiu Cheng: …
So, he was a seller of exam questions who also dabbled in selling fake diplomas, right?
“Alright, let’s not talk about this. I’m not interested in any of this you’ve mentioned,” Cen Xiu Cheng said in a deep voice. “However, it’s not impossible for you to make money. I’ll ask you a few questions, and you just answer them truthfully.”
As he spoke, Cen Xiu Cheng opened his wallet and took out a US dollar bill.
“You recognize this money, right?” Cen Xiu Cheng dangled the bill between his fingers.
The man in sunglasses was taken aback, “US dollars? But bro, I don’t really recognize US dollars and can’t tell if they’re real or fake. Why don’t you just transfer money to me directly via Taoxun!”
Cen Xiu Cheng was silent for a moment. He took out his phone and first transferred one hundred US dollars to the man in sunglasses.
“This is a deposit. After you’ve answered, I’ll give you another thousand US dollars. However, if your answers are false, you won’t get any of that money!” Cen Xiu Cheng’s voice deepened.
“Don’t worry, boss! I’ll definitely tell you everything I know!” the man in sunglasses said obsequiously.
Cen Xiu Cheng was silent for a moment, then he finally asked, “How much do you know about Taoxun’s Ye Zhi… that is, the founder of Taoxun, President Ye?”
The man in sunglasses couldn’t help but gasp, took two steps back, and looked Cen Xiu Cheng up and down in surprise, “Boss, your ambitions are quite wild!”
Cen Xiu Cheng looked confused, “What do you mean?”
“Boss, since you’re so straightforward, I’ll offer you some advice,” the man in sunglasses reached out and patted his shoulder, saying with emotion, “Men, wanting to live off a woman isn’t exactly a crime!
Your physical attributes are indeed excellent. If President Ye were to open up a ‘harem,’ your looks would definitely be in the top ten… no, even in the top three wouldn’t be a problem.
But President Ye isn’t interested in keeping young gigolos! And President Ye is now with President Qi, that is, Qi Xuan of Qi Corporation. President Qi is even more handsome than you! And he’s also very rich. Their union is a power-to-power alliance! You don’t have a chance…”
Cen Xiu Cheng was speechless. What was all this nonsense?
He was about to tell the man in sunglasses that he had misunderstood, but upon hearing that Ye Zhi and Qi Xuan were together, Cen Xiu Cheng couldn’t help but pause slightly.
“Ye Zhi managed to win over Qi Xuan?” he couldn’t help but ask.
“Boss, where did you come from, some remote mountain village? What do you mean Ye Zhi pursued Qi Xuan? It was clearly Qi Xuan who pursued Ye Zhi!” The man in sunglasses looked at Cen Xiu Cheng with suspicion. “Ye Zhi once declared that whoever wanted to pursue her had to give her a satellite. That Qi Xuan gave her one without batting an eye, and the satellite is now hanging in the sky. Many couples like to make wishes to the Hongluan satellite. How can you not know about such a big thing?”
Cen Xiu Cheng was stunned. He certainly didn’t know these things. Did Qi Xuan really send Ye Zhi a satellite to pursue her?
He suddenly realized that although he had felt he must have misunderstood something before, he truly hadn't expected that he was so incredibly wrong.
Seeing the other party look at him suspiciously, Cen Xiu Cheng explained, “I’m from abroad, so I’m indeed not familiar with domestic matters.”
“I see…” The man in sunglasses nodded in understanding.
“Tell me in detail about Ye Zhi and Taoxun, the company she founded,” Cen Xiu Cheng said in a deep voice. “Just tell me whatever you know, don’t lie. Taoxun is so famous, it shouldn’t be hard to find information online.”
“Boss, you don’t want to search yourself? Alright! I’m the one selling Taoxun exam questions, so I know a lot about Taoxun’s development history!” the man in sunglasses said proudly.
Then, the man in sunglasses told Cen Xiu Cheng everything he knew.
It took nearly three hours of talking.
Cen Xiu Cheng’s expression was complex. Only now did he understand how ridiculously wrong he had been.
