Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Job Hunting

Early in the morning, Xia Weiwei got up early and pushed open Li Yun's bedroom door, stepping into his room for the first time in the morning. She walked over to Li Yun's bed, gently sat down on the edge, and softly nudged his body while calling out to him, "Yun, it's time to get up! Yun, wake up!"

Li Yun obediently opened his eyes and sat up. Xia Weiwei looked at him tenderly. Once she saw that he was fully awake, she didn't say another word and turned to leave, heading to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for him.

After he had washed up and dressed, and quickly devoured the breakfast she had carefully prepared, Xia Weiwei smiled as she saw Li Yun off. However, he suddenly took her injured hand from the day before, brought it to his lips, and gently kissed it.

Watching Li Yun's retreating figure as he walked into the morning sun, Xia Weiwei smiled contentedly.

Li Yun no longer needed to wake up early for studying, but he had kept the habit of morning exercise. Instead of going to school, he now went to the nearby River Park. After his workout, he would stop by the public newspaper stand to read the daily paper, scanning the job advertisements for positions he was qualified for.

Despite his extensive knowledge and proficiency in several foreign languages, his recent job applications had all been unsuccessful.

Either it was because his academic credentials weren't considered sufficient—government institutions only recognized formal degrees, no matter how much else he knew—or because he lacked relevant work experience, which companies claimed was a requirement for hiring.

The sky was clear and the sun shone brightly over the land. Li Yun stood in front of the job posting board, his mind filled with countless dreams. Not far from him, couples walked hand in hand, whispering sweet nothings to each other on the lovers' path.

The men were all handsome and debonair, while the women were gentle, affectionate, and considerate—truly enviable.

However, Li Yun had no heart to watch these tender scenes. He casually found a place to sit, cupped his face in his hands, and stared straight up at the blue sky.

Was it this difficult to find a decent job? Could he not gain recognition without connections? Was he truly destined to rely solely on his martial arts skills to make a living?

As Li Yun was lost in his thoughts, suddenly, not far from him, a couple was kissing passionately and at length under the bright sun. Li Yun's heart couldn't help but race, and a surge of desire began to burn within him...

Suddenly, his gaze froze. In that instant, Li Yun felt his heart quicken and his breath seemed to stop.

A tall and slender lady walked across the street with a crowd of office workers. She had long, straight hair that could rival the most beautiful hair in a TV commercial, looking incredibly graceful and charming. She had an oval face, a smooth forehead, and skin as white as snow—features that only a beauty could possess.

Her arched eyebrows framed a pair of deep, mysterious eyes, a delicately sculpted nose, and lips that were so beautifully shaped they made one want to take a bite. Her sharp, round, and distinctive chin added a touch of charm to her cold, unapproachable beauty. In short, she had a flawless face.

Her ivory-colored long-sleeved silk blouse couldn't conceal her approximately 38D, full and perky breasts. She carried a light blue, exquisite leather bag on her shoulder. She wore a knee-length chiffon skirt with powder blue base and ivory white floral patterns, ultra-thin transparent stockings, and nearly three-inch stiletto heels, which enhanced the allure of her round and shapely legs.

Walking among the crowd of office workers, she stood out like a crane among chickens. Her enchanting presence made those around her pale in comparison. She had a kind of beauty that was not to be desecrated.

Usually restless young men, who would get excited at the sight of a beautiful woman, were now quite docile, deep in contemplation within their pants.

Her face was like a bright moon, her skin like congealed fat, her eyes like deep pools, and her cheeks were exquisitely beautiful, giving off an unparalleled sense of elegance. Her figure was upright and slender, with a waist so delicate it seemed to be held together by a thread.

Her upper body was adorned with a pair of perky, smooth breasts, and she had a pair of smooth, jade-like, and shapely legs.

Her dreamlike, pure, and ethereal aura made one feel a surge of affection and admiration for the creator's divine craftsmanship, as if creating such a beauty must have taken immense effort.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew a job posting into Li Yun's arms. He picked it up and glanced at it without much purpose. When he turned it over, Li Yun let out a knowing smile.

Seeking staff, male only, aged twenty to twenty-five, with a bachelor's degree or above, proficient in Japanese and English. Please visit Room 5030, Block B, 13th Floor, Yulong Building, Kehua Road, for an interview between two and four in the afternoon.

After reading the job posting, Li Yun felt a new glimmer of hope in his heart, and he believed that he would succeed this time.

Li Yun felt for his ID card. A large company should be able to download a resume and copies of their diploma. He also had a few one-inch photos left in his wallet.

Feeling a bit more settled, Li Yun left the park, clutching the job posting in his hand, and headed towards the bus stop.

To his surprise, at the bus stop, Li Yun saw the beautiful woman who had just captivated his heart. Would such a beauty also take the bus?

Li Yun couldn't help but marvel at the charming beauty of this youthful woman. Her slender willow-like eyebrows, bright and clear eyes, straight nose, delicate cherry lips, and smooth cheeks were perfectly combined on a pure and refined face, complemented by an irresistible, enchanting aura.

Her long, straight, and smooth hair was now tied up in a lively ponytail, which further highlighted the woman's graceful and charming demeanor.

A well-fitted suit perfectly outlined the slender and graceful curves of her upright figure. Her skin, as white as snow and as smooth as condensed milk, exuded an irresistible allure.

Li Yun quietly positioned himself next to her, so close that he could almost smell the fragrance emanating from her body. When the bus arrived, men and women surged towards the bus door.

He followed closely behind the beauty, squeezing onto the bus with her. As she stepped onto the bus, Li Yun admired from behind her plump, slightly upturned derrière, her slender waist, and the excitingly white and round calves beneath her skirt.

If he hadn't seen her cold, unapproachable, yet stunningly beautiful face, his lower body would have reacted.

The bus during working hours was as crowded as a can of sardines. Between Li Yun and the beautiful woman, who seemed not of this world, stood a short and plump woman with a pockmarked face, small eyes, thick lips, and a large, fat derrière that kept grinding against his thigh, leaving him with nowhere to escape.
