Chapter 193 – Ding Xiang’s Job Interview Experience
The next day, Mo Fei arrived at the office a bit late. Jin Yingming was already sitting on the sofa waiting, and Mo Xiaojuan was chatting with him.
“Teacher Jin, I’m sorry I’m late.” Mo Fei said apologetically to Jin Yingming.
Jin Yingming smiled and said, “It’s nothing. Miss Xiaojuan has already told me that you stayed up late last night, so it’s normal for you to wake up a bit later today.”
It was clearly an excuse that Mo Xiaojuan had come up with for her. Mo Fei’s face turned slightly red, and she turned to look at Mo Xiaojuan. However, Mo Xiaojuan’s teasing look made her quickly turn her head away, unable to meet her gaze.
“Your voice still sounds a little hoarse. I don’t think you need to record songs this morning. Let’s listen to the previous tracks, analyze where you didn’t sing well, and make some notes.” Jin Yingming continued.
“Hmm, okay,” Mo Fei nodded lightly. In front of others, she regained her original coldness.
“Elder sister, let’s go get some water. I’ll make you some throat-soothing tea!” Mo Xiaojuan’s eyes shifted around quickly, stood up with a smile, took Mo Fei’s arm, and dragged her outside.
“You can go by yourself. I have to work now.” Mo Fei furrowed her brow in confusion. She already felt guilty for being late and thought that she had wasted everyone’s time. 𝐞𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺
“I can’t carry them all, one person can’t carry so much. I also need to bring a cup for Teacher Jin!” Mo Xiaojun chuckled.
Upon hearing this, Jin Yingming quickly stood up and said, “How about I go?”
However, Mo Xiaojuan had another motive. She waved her hand and said with a smile, “No need, no need!”
Before going to the tea room, Mo Xiaojuan pulled Mo Fei to a secluded corner outside. The girl looked at Mo Fei with a mischievous smile on her face, making Mo Fei feel a bit uncomfortable: “What’s up with you?”
“Tsk tsk! Elder sister, look at your smooth and moisturized skin, and your pink and tender face!” Mo Xiaojuan took Mo Fei’s hand and laughed like a female hooligan. “Did you do something bad with brother-in-law last night?”
“What bad thing? Don’t talk nonsense.” Mo Fei’s face turned red all at once, and she reached out to pinch Mo Xiaojuan’s waist.
Mo Xiaojuan flexibly jumped back and made a mischievous face, and said “You’re still keeping secrets from me! Who let brother-in-law take you back last night? You didn’t even thank me!”
“W-what are you talking about?” Mo Fei was thin-skinned, even with Mo Xiaojuan she felt a little embarrassed to say it, so she stammered in defense.
“Humph humph, your sister here is also an experienced person, how could I not understand?” Mo Xiaojuan chuckled as she covered her mouth. Look at your cheek, you can almost squeeze water out of it. Our little beauty must have been nourished.
Mo Fei pursed her lips, her shyness written all over her face. She didn’t deny it, but she was also too embarrassed to admit it.
“Tell me, is brother-in-law powerful?” Mo Xiaojuan asked with a light of gossip in her eyes, pulling Mo Fei.
Mo Fei pushed her hand away and angrily said, “Okay, stop asking and go make tea!”
Mo Xiaojuan covered her mouth and giggled, “Even if you don’t tell me, I can guess it. You definitely got tossed around a lot last night. And brother-in-law really doesn’t know how to cherish beauty. Look at your voice, it wasn’t so hoarse last night!”
Mo Fei remembered the wild passion from last night and the tenderness of this morning, and her face turned even redder, with the blush extending up to her ears. To cover it up, she deliberately put on a stern face and scolded Mo Xiaojuan, “Are you done yet? Go make tea!”
Mo Xiaojuan knew that her cousin had thin skin and didn’t tease her anymore. She smiled and hugged her arm as they walked towards the tea room.

Yang Yi, the author of this work1, knew nothing about it. After he dropped off Mo Fei at the company, he returned to the coffee shop feeling refreshed and energized, opened the door, hung up the sign, and prepared to start business.
The first person who came to the door was not a customer but Guo Ziyi. He brought a girl and pushed open the door excitedly, shouting, “Big brother Yang, did you not open the door this morning? My senior sister came early and has been waiting for a long time but didn’t see you.”
“Well, I took Xixi to kindergarten.” Yang Yi responded simply. He was checking the inventory of coffee beans on the shelf. When he finished, he turned around and saw the girl and was stunned.
“Good, actually I thought you overslept. I couldn’t get up that early. After my senior sister told me, I thought I’d come with her to knock on your door.” Guo Ziyi kept talking. “This is my senior sister. Her surname is Ding…”
“Ding Xiang?” Yang Yi looked at the other party and recognized her, smiling faintly.
“Yes, Ding Xiang. Huh, Big brother Yang, how did you know?” Guo Ziyi was surprised by this.
At this time, Ding Xiang also recognized Yang Yi. After all, they had met twice before, and each time Yang Yi was with a cute little girl. She said in surprise, “Ah, I remember. You are the father of that little girl. Uh, her name is Xixi. She’s a very cute little girl, and I have a deep impression of her!”
Yang Yi smiled slightly and said, “Yes, we have met twice before. I didn’t expect that the senior sister that Guo Ziyi mentioned would be you!”
“Do you really know each other?” Guo Ziyi interjected from the side.
Ding Xiang smiled and said, “Yes, at the temple fair last month, I went to sell cotton candy and saw the boss and his daughter. But at that time, I just remembered his daughter’s name, which sounds especially nice.”
“Mhmm, after she came back, Xixi couldn’t stop thinking about your cotton candy,” Yang Yi smiled slightly.
Actually, at this point, when Yang Yi found out that Ding Xiang was the student who came to apply, he almost had the answer in his heart.
Although they only met twice, he still had some understanding of Ding Xiang’s character. Such an optimistic, hardworking and diligent young girl wouldn’t be lacking in any way!
“You knowing her makes it easier!” Guo Ziyi chuckled, “What do you think of my senior sister, Big brother Yang? Does she meet your standards for selecting coffee shop employees?”
However, Ding Xiang hesitated. She looked at the artistic decoration of the coffee shop and the grand piano beside her, feeling inferior. She said, “I don’t think I’m suitable. I’m not pretty, what if it affects the business of the shop?”
There were some things that Ding Xiang didn’t say. She used to want to work part-time in the milk tea shops and coffee shops in the East Gate, but was rejected by the bosses when they just met her. Although the other party put it very politely, the meaning was still the same: she was too dark-skinned, and they would rather pay a high price to hire pretty girls to work part-time than hire her for a low salary.
“What does being pretty have to do with it?” Guo Ziyi was a little annoyed. He sincerely wanted to help this kind-hearted senior sister. “Let me tell you, my Big brother Yang has rejected countless beautiful female students. He’s not hiring a mascot.”
Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, “That’s right. I’m hiring a shop assistant who can work and share my troubles. Look at the job requirements I wrote in the recruitment notice. There’s no requirement for good looks.”
“My senior sister’s facial features are also decent. She’s just a little dark-skinned and thin,” Guo Ziyi mercilessly exposed Ding Xiang’s scars, “The most important thing is that she’s very hardworking, and has great strength, she can move heavy objects!”
Ding Xiang was both angry and amused by him, but she didn’t have time to argue with Guo Ziyi. She nervously asked Yang Yi, “Can I really do it?”
“Whether you can or not, it’s not up to me to decide. It depends on your performance,” Yang Yi wiped his hands, opened the small door of the bar counter, smiled slightly, and said, “Come over here, I’ll teach you how to brew coffee and see if you can learn fast.”
Ding Xiang looked at Yang Yi in surprise and quickly said, “Thank you, boss, for giving me this opportunity. I will work hard!”
