Zhao Meimei noticed the PhD because his appearance was quite distinctive, especially when he spoke. His words carried a noticeable foreign accent, causing laughter, both kind and unkind, from those around.
Zhao Meimei was standing three steps away from the recruitment table, observing as the PhD communicated with the recruitment staff.
To her surprise, Zhao Meimei found that although his Chinese had a clear accent, his English was spoken with perfect pronunciation and sounded quite pleasant.
It was only natural that the PhD was hired on the spot amidst envious glances. After politely bidding farewell to the recruitment staff, she turned and left.
Zhao Meimei retracted her gaze, sat for a while longer to watch the events, and then got up with her bag to leave.
Making her way past the recruitment tables at the front, Zhao Meimei almost immediately spotted the PhD turning away from a table closer to the front row.
