Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Full-Time Position Quota

Lu Yichen held an enamel mug in one hand and a greaseproof paper package in the other, and said, "You have an exam today, eat while it’s hot, and head to school early."

When Luo Qiao saw the breakfast that Lu Yichen had prepared, she almost burst out laughing, "Do you still believe in this?"

A look of unease momentarily crossed Lu Yichen’s face as he pretended not to understand and said, "Believe in what? Hurry up and eat."

Luo Qiao laughed and took the soy milk, "Do I really have to eat both of these eggs?"

Lu Yichen spoke seriously, "Taking exams uses a lot of brainpower, doesn’t it? Better eat more to nourish yourself," he finished, followed by a light cough.

Luo Qiao ate while laughing.

Lu Yichen said, "Stop laughing, eat quickly."

Looking at a fried dough stick and two eggs on the table, Luo Qiao remembered how her perpetually busy mother, who was seldom seen, had done the same for her when she was young, and her heart was filled with a rush of sadness!

By the time Luo Qiao got to her classroom, many of her classmates had already arrived. Xiao Ya asked, "Luo Qiao, did you finish reading all the notes from the class president and the study committee member?"

Luo Qiao nodded and said, "They are recorded in great detail. Don’t worry, I’ve read them all, plus I’ve always been self-studying and reviewing."

The three-day exam soon passed, and Luo Qiao had no plans to return to Qingshan Village before the new year. She thought about waiting for the test results and receiving the manuscript fees sent by the newspaper before heading back to Capital City.

The Yuan Family and the Luo Family had called a few days earlier to Lu Yichen’s place, suggesting she come back to Capital City early, since she had nothing else to do, and she agreed.

The day after the exam ended, she happened to run into Qu Meimei at the street corner, the big sister of Qu Lili from the Housing Authority. This big sister was really too enthusiastic, pulling Luo Qiao into quite a conversation, leaving Luo Qiao almost overwhelmed.

After a long chat, Luo Qiao marveled at how small the world was. It turned out that Qu Meimei’s husband, Jiang Dongli, and Jiang Shan’s father, Jiang Donglin, were cousins. What a coincidence.

Previously, Qu Lili had not mentioned her relation to Jiang Shan, but now Luo Qiao learned about it after hearing it from Qu Meimei.

Jiang Donglin, Jiang Shan’s father, seemed to be really down on his luck lately. Originally he was sent to the country to oversee infrastructure, but an accident occurred, and he himself was injured in the accident.

After the inspection by the authorities, it was found that the construction did not follow procedures, and precautions had not been taken. Luckily, there were no casualties or serious damage to the equipment.

However, as the supervising construction manager, Jiang Donglin was definitely going to be held accountable, so even if he wasn’t fired, he could only hope for an early retirement at his unit. A comeback looked doubtful.

Qu Meimei probably did not know about the unpleasantness between her family and Luo Qiao, and said, "It’s almost New Year, and such trouble happens."

Luo Qiao could only reply, "Isn’t it just."

In her heart, however, she was thinking that this man must have been particularly unlucky recently, to fall from grace without any need for others to intervene.

Qu Meimei insisted on inviting Luo Qiao to her house for a visit, to become familiar with the place. Luo Qiao really couldn’t refuse the kind offer and ended up following her for a visit.

Along the way, Qu Meimei said, "I’ve been to your house several times before, but never saw you there."

Luo Qiao replied with a light smile, "Mm, I was away on a trip for some business before."

Jiang Dongli, seeing Luo Qiao enter behind his wife, slapped his forehead after a while and pointed at Luo Qiao, saying, "That girl who lent a helping hand last time!"

Qu Meimei replied with a laugh, "Old man, her name is Luo Qiao."

Jiang Dongli said, "Right, right, right, Luo Qiao, come have a seat. I really want to thank you for that day."

Luo Qiao said with a smile, "No need to thank me, I just happened to be there."

Jiang Dongli chuckled, "That’s modest of you, we went to the hospital later, and the doctors praised your first aid skills, it spared me a lot of pain."

The three sat down and talked, and Luo Qiao learned that Jiang Dongli worked at a pharmaceutical factory and was involved in personnel transfers. Later, Luo Qiao mentioned that she had relatives working at the pharmaceutical factory.

Afterward, Qu Meimei wanted to keep Luo Qiao for lunch, but Luo Qiao declined politely, saying there were people coming home for lunch. As Luo Qiao was leaving, Jiang Dongli said a few words to her that made her express her thanks repeatedly.

It turned out that this year, the pharmaceutical factory had permanent positions available, and each senior executive had one discretionary slot. Now the Jiang Family didn’t need it, and upon hearing that Luo Qiao had relatives working at the factory, they gave the slot to her.
