Capítulo 841: Chapter 509: Xiaowai the Scapegoat Tree, Master Huo Always Gets to the Point (Second Update)

Guantang Villa

Tang Wan was lying on the bed, picking up a parenting book again, but she lost interest in reading.

She reached out to touch her belly, “Fifth Brother, I really didn’t do this on purpose. Clothes are quite personal, and besides, Third Brother’s temper and his cleanliness obsession, I wouldn’t dare to casually give his things to others.”

Knowing that someone’s cleanliness habit was “cured” tonight, Tang Wan wouldn’t deliberately mix up the clothes.

She didn’t know what had happened between them before, and even if she wanted to help or stir things up, she had to do it appropriately. Deliberately mixing up clothes would be too much.

“I’ve already explained to Third Brother.”

“What about the clothes?”

Jiang Jinsang said, “If he wants the clothes, he’ll find a way. Don’t worry about it.”

“I’ll still mention it to Team Leader Lin, to avoid any misunderstandings with her.”

“Ever since I got pregnant, I’ve noticed my memory getting worse. I need to make a memo to keep track of the things I need to do recently.”

Tang Wan said this while seeming all serious, taking a pen and notebook from the drawer. But after looking at her phone for a while, she completely forgot about the memo.

If it weren’t for Jiang Jinsang’s reminder, she might have forgotten about the prenatal check-up in a few days.

And she blamed the pregnancy for it.

Jiang Jinsang naturally agreed with whatever she said, with only the unborn little Xiaowai, unable to resist, silently enduring the blame thrown by his mom.

…

The next day was Jiang Shiyi’s second day of interviews, where he had to perform a practical experiment. The theme was randomly selected, and during the experiment, what mattered was basic skills; you couldn’t rely on cramming at the last minute.

Jiang Chengsi organized a party, planning to celebrate with Jiang Shiyi after his interview.

He was just too tired from running the club lately and wanted to gather everyone for some excitement, using Jiang Shiyi’s job hunt as an excuse.

Laboratory operations and chemical reactions all require time. All interviewees were divided into two labs, and the practical sessions were split into two halves. However, Jiang Shiyi didn’t see Lin Luyou.

The lab had high expectations for him. Even though the theme was supposedly randomly selected, they manipulated it to give him the hardest one. Even the director pretended to inspect, just to observe him.

Jiang Shiyi wore a lab coat, mask, and held a dropper in his hand, carefully adding reagents to the petri dish.

The whole process was calm and composed. Chemical experiments require precise control of dosage and time; any nervousness could easily lead to accidents. Some candidates, too tense, ended up making mistakes.

Watching him conduct an experiment was practically like enjoying an art display.

At this time, Lin Luyou was in another examination room, in the middle of a break, and the assistant responsible for recording couldn’t help but whisper, “Team Leader, I’m going to observe the other exam room for a bit, I’ll be right back.”

“Why do you want to see over there?”

“I heard Jiang…” The assistant noticed her expression was off, “I’m just going to take a look.”

The director initially assigned her to Jiang Shiyi’s room on purpose, but she requested to be moved.

The reason was: [I wasn’t aware he was participating in the interview before. Now that I know he’s here and we share the same mentor, to avoid suspicion and prevent gossip about manipulation, I won’t attend his practical interview.]

This reason was so strong that even the director couldn’t say much. After all, they would become colleagues in the future, providing plenty of opportunities to watch them bicker.

…

By around four in the afternoon, the practical results were out, and combined with yesterday’s quiz and interview scores, by about five, all the interviewers’ scores had been tallied.

Jiang Shiyi achieved the top spot with an excellent overall rank.

First?

Lin Luyou even specifically checked his complete score summary.

“Xiaolin, your senior brother took first place. You’ll be colleagues with him in the future, but you don’t seem very happy?” the director teased.

“Were there any errors in the score tallying?”
