Chapter 348: Beautiful People Are Dangerous
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wei Shuyi had no surgeries to perform today, and there were no patients with serious conditions. Therefore, he was very free.
He went to the ward to take a look at the patients, then went to Yuan Jun’s place to take a few biscuits from him before wandering back to the office.
At around four in the afternoon, his phone rang.
When he saw that it was Jiaren Wu, Wei Shuyi was quite surprised. He thought that she was calling to apologize, so he gladly answered the call.
“Are you busy?” Jiaren Wu sounded quite excited.
Wei Shuyi pretended to be busy and deliberately made some noise before saying to the person on the other end of the phone, “Alright, what’s the matter?”
His tone was distant and calm.
Jiaren Wu was stunned for a moment before realizing that Wei Shuyi was still angry.
“I’m sorry!”
“What?” Wei Shuyi sneered. “Don’t say that. I can’t take it.”
Knowing that Wei Shuyi was sulking, Jiaren Wu lowered her voice and coaxed him, “I didn’t tell you because I don’t want to recall the past.” Kang Hui had already called her, and she knew that Wei Shuyi had gone to see him.
She decided to stop hiding the matter.
Jiaren Wu’s voice sounded a little dull, and Wei Shuyi felt sorry for her.
He immediately forgave Jiaren Wu.
It turned out that liking someone would lower his bottom line.
“I’m fine.” Wei Shuyi’s voice didn’t sound so cold anymore. He held his phone in his left hand and chatted with Jiaren Wu; his right hand held a fountain pen as he drew a comic book character on his notebook. With a few simple strokes, he drew a beautiful woman in an open-necked dress.
Jiaren Wu asked again, “By the way, can I use the computer in your study?”
Hearing this, Wei Shuyi paused for a moment before asking, “What are you doing?”
“Looking for a job online.”
Wei Shuyi was surprised and put down his pen.
“Why are you in such a hurry? Aren’t you going to rest for a few more days?”
“No, laziness is addictive. Before I become lazy, I have to quickly find a job. Only by earning money can I have the capital to woo Brother Wei.” As Jiaren Wu spoke, she raised her voice and her charming voice was especially seductive.
Wei Shuyi couldn’t help but smile.
“What job are you looking for?”
“I’ll just take a look.”
Jiaren Wu had already gotten up from the bed and ran to the study.
Wei Shuyi had many medical books in his study, as well as some old comic books. Jiaren Wu switched on his computer and asked for Wei Shuyi’s password before opening the job application website.
She took a few glances at it and said to Wei Shuyi as she filtered it out, “I will probably find a job like a security guard or a bodyguard.”
When Jiaren Wu saw that a bodyguard’s monthly salary was 20,000 yuan, her eyes widened.
“Seriously… as a bodyguard, I can get a salary of 20,000 yuan a month, and I even get paid for my meals!” After she finished complaining to Wei Shuyi, she immediately opened the recruitment notice and sent a request to the other company.
Wei Shuyi was also surprised. “Why is the income so high? Is it a dangerous profession?”
She replied, “How can there be so many dangerous professions?
“Bodyguards nowadays are very relaxed.”
The two of them chatted for a while more before ending the call.
Jiaren Wu continued to send her job application letter. Her phone rang, reminding her that there was an unread message on WeChat. Jiaren Wu opened her WeChat and saw that it was from Wei Shuyi. He sent two messages. The second message was a pig emoticon with the words “You are a pig” written on it.
On this emoticon was a picture taken by a cell phone.
Jiaren Wu clicked on the picture and waited for it to be enlarged before leaning over to take a look.
It was a simple comic book drawing. The person on the paper was wearing an umbilical suit and had his hair draped over his shoulders. It was exactly what Wei Shuyi looked like when he first met Jiaren Wu at the bar last year.
Jiaren Wu stared at the photo in a daze.
Wei Shuyi returned home from work. The moment he entered the house, he smelled the aroma of food.
He stood on the porch for a moment.
Such a day when someone was waiting for him to hug after work and hot dishes were waiting for him to taste was very satisfying.
No wonder so many men dream of having children and wives.
Wei Shuyi returned to his senses and entered the house with his bag. Just then, Jiaren Wu ran out when she heard the commotion. She was still wearing the clothes she wore in the morning and had a pink apron tied around her chest. She had a rice scoop in her hand. She smiled at him with a flirtatious look in her eyes. The light in her eyes bloomed. It was a scene that was even more enchanting than the stars.
“Come here, take a shower after dinner.”
Jiaren Wu took his bag from his hand and pulled him to the dining room, pressing him onto the dining table.
“Change, change, change!” She pretended to be exaggerating as she chanted a spell. Then, she opened the lid on the dining table, revealing the true appearance underneath.
There were four dishes and a soup. The meat and vegetables were evenly matched. There was also a small plate of fried peanuts.
“Do you feel very blessed?”
Jiaren Wu held her cheeks in her hands as she sat beside Wei Shuyi. She tilted her head to look at him, not forgetting to blink.
The mischievous her, the unrestrained her, the serious her, and the sad her were all the ones he liked.
Wei Shuyi suddenly felt that everything was an illusion.
How could everything be so perfect?
His life seemed to be complete in an instant.
He almost blurted out, “Let’s get married.”
Jiaren Wu scooped a bowl of rice for him and served him food. She smiled proudly and happily. “I’ve already received a reply to my job application. I’m going for an interview tomorrow. Here, this meal tonight is to wish me success in my interview tomorrow!”
Jiaren Wu picked up the cup of warm water on her right and raised it toward Wei Shuyi.
Wei Shuyi was stunned. He picked up his teacup and clinked glasses with her.
“After drinking this cup of tea, I’ll be working again tomorrow!”
Saying that, Jiaren Wu gulped down the cup of warm water.
Wei Shuyi, who had always been calm, actually imitated her and swallowed all the warm water as if he were drinking beer.
After drinking a cup of water, he was almost full.
However, Wei Shuyi still ate a bowl of rice.
At night, Jiaren Wu pestered him for a long time. Wei Shuyi couldn’t resist her passion tonight. He also felt uneasy about her sudden passionate reaction today.
Everything is fine. I shouldn’t let my mind wander.
The next day, Jiaren Wu and Wei Shuyi left the house at the same time.
One went to the hospital while the other went home to change before going for the interview.
As she was giving an interview for the role of bodyguard, Jiaren Wu especially chose a loose black outfit. Her black hair was tied up high, and her neat and handsome outfit made her even more outstanding.
She took buses to a few companies for the interviews. Along the way, many people stared at her.
Jiaren Wu’s first company was Cheng Hui Corporation, which started from real estate. A few days ago, the CEO of Cheng Hui Corporation had been ambushed by enemies in the market and was almost beaten to death. He had learned from his mistakes. As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, he had started looking for bodyguards.
When Jiaren Wu arrived at the interview floor, she realized that she wasn’t the only one looking for a job. Six or seven people were standing along the corridor on this floor. There were more men than women. Together with Jiaren Wu, there were only two women. That woman looked more muscular than Jiaren Wu…
Jiaren Wu had a bad feeling.
Being a bodyguard did not depend on one’s looks. The taller and more muscular one was, the safer one’s employer would feel.
They went in for the interview together. The interviewers were the president’s wife and son.
After taking a look at the candidates for the interview, the CEO’s son’s eyes lit up when he saw Jiaren Wu. The CEO’s wife narrowed her eyes when her gaze landed on Jiaren Wu.
One could well imagine that Jiaren Wu had fallen out of favor.
She was still unconvinced. Before she left, she said to the two interviewers, “You’re judging people by their looks!”
The CEO’s wife said, “If I want to pick a daughter-in-law, then you’re definitely one of the best. But, Miss Wu, we’re not choosing a wife for my son today. We’re choosing a bodyguard for my husband. For someone like Miss Wu… To be honest, if I choose you, I’m raising a tiger to cause trouble for myself.”
Her words were vague, and she did not say them more directly. What the CEO’s wife really wanted to say was: If she chose Jiaren Wu, it was similar to finding a strong love rival and a lover for her husband.
Hearing this, Jiaren Wu fell silent. Is it my fault that I’m pretty?
She left the company unwillingly.
After that, she went to the second company but was still unsuccessful.
This time, the other party’s reason for rejecting her was even more violent. “Our boss is easily muddled when he’s drunk. Miss Wu is so young and beautiful. I’m afraid it’s not safe to stay by his side…”
Since the boss was a pervert, then why would she be his bodyguard?
Jiaren Wu left the company angrily.
It was already lunchtime.
Jiaren Wu had a meal at a nearby restaurant. When the food was served, Wei Shuyi’s call arrived.
After picking up the call, Jiaren Wu said to Wei Shuyi in an aggrieved tone, “Brother Wei, I interviewed with two companies today, but they rejected me. The reason is that I’m too good-looking, and they’re worried about it!”
Wei Shuyi couldn’t help but laugh. “Then, why don’t we stop looking for jobs and I’ll support you?”
“That won’t do. How can a woman be raised by a man?” Jiaren Wu was talking on the phone with Wei Shuyi as she ate. She didn’t notice that the person sitting behind her was staring at her.
“Daddy, why can’t you find a job just because you’re good-looking?” Dongli Ao was extremely confused after eavesdropping on Jiaren Wu’s phone call.
Dongli Shenghua looked at the back view of the person who was complaining. His expression was still cold. He said to his son, “Because good-looking people are very dangerous.”
Dongli Ao turned around and glanced at Jiaren Wu. He smirked and said disdainfully, “She’s so skinny. What’s so dangerous about that?”
“Never look down on women.” Dongli Shenghua patted his son’s head and told him sternly, “Anyone who looks down on women will eventually suffer the consequences of their actions. Xiao Ao, remember this. In this world, villains are not the most terrifying. Women are.”
Dongli Shenghua’s speech left Dongli Ao at a loss.
He took a sip of coconut juice before saying, “My daddy is better than all women.”
Dongli Shenghua shook his head and laughed.
After lunch, Jiaren Wu found a cafe and sat down. She drank coffee while waiting for two o’clock.
At 1: 50, Jiaren Wu stood up and walked into a five-story office building.
Although the building was only five stories tall, it occupied 2,000 square meters. The building had a unique appearance, and was shaped like a Rubik’s Cube.
This building was very famous in the country because the people who entered this building were the most popular celebrities in Binjiang City.
Shenhua Entertainment Company was as famous as Long Xiao Entertainment. Both companies were dragons and tigers in their industry. They stood in the east and west cities of Binjiang City, but controlled the entire entertainment industry of China. They were the two big empires in the entertainment industry.
This was the last company that Jiaren Wu wanted to interview for.
On the recruitment page of Shenhua Entertainment, only a few bodyguard positions were available. However, the page did not state who the bodyguards were for.
Many people were guessing that the company was looking for a bodyguard for a certain Heavenly King or Queen. Hence, the number of people who came for the interview today could not be counted with two hands. When Jiaren Wu arrived, the others had already arrived. Among the more than 20 people who were looking for a job, there were seven to eight ladies.
When they saw Jiaren Wu, they all thought that she was a new artiste of this company.
Jiaren Wu ignored their gazes and sat down on a chair. Then, she took out her phone and started harassing Wei Shuyi.
People went in and out.
After Jiaren waited for forty minutes, it was finally her turn.
She put away her phone and straightened her collar, her expression turning solemn.
Then, she pushed open the closed door and turned around to close it. When she turned around, she saw a small black dot shooting toward her. Jiaren Wu reacted quickly. The moment she saw the small dot, she bent down and dodged to the side.
Bam!
A black replica bullet hit where Jiaren Wu was standing.
Jiaren Wu looked up at the interviewers.
There were only three interviewers.
One was Yan Zihao, the general manager of Shenhua Entertainment, and the other was Pan Jie, the assistant and bodyguard of the president of Shenhua Entertainment. Jiaren Wu had seen this person before. The last time she had been hit by a car from Shenhua, it had been Pan Jie who had carried her into the car.
The person sitting in the middle was someone she knew. That person had a cold expression and indifferent eyes as it was in the two previous times they had met.
Jiaren Wu’s gaze lingered on the person in the middle for two seconds before she calmly looked away.
Dongli Shenghua looked surprised.
“Miss Wu, please have a seat.”
Jiaren Wu sat down on the only chair.
It was Yan Zihao who spoke. His gaze lingered on Jiaren Wu’s overly outstanding face for a second before he suddenly said, “A person who looks too dazzling is actually not suited to be a bodyguard.”
Jiaren Wu smoothly replied, “You can’t say that. When the employer is in a bad mood, looking at this good-looking face might make him happy!”
