Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Hello, boss. My name is Liu Miaomiao. I’m an undergraduate from one of the top universities in the country. I have more than two years of working experience now.”

Ye Heng sat in his office and began the interview.

The people who came in were all people who were being interviewed for his assistant position.

Seeing the woman in front of him rambling all the time, Ye Heng felt a little helpless.

He eventually interrupted the woman’s words.

Then, he put his finger on the potted plant in front of him.

“Take a look at what kind of plant this is?”

The sudden question made the girl dumbfounded.

“This is probably a flower.”

Liu Miaomiao said with some uncertainty.

“What, this is a flower?” Ye Heng was simply shocked.

He didn’t expect the mugwort that he had just developed, which was especially drought-resistant, would be seen as a flower.

Logically speaking, as long as one had eyes, they would be able to differentiate between the two.

But how did she derive to the conclusion that this was a flower?

Could it be that university students nowadays didn’t even have any common sense?

If Liu Miaomiao found out about Ye Heng’s thinking process, she would be very shocked.

Who would have thought that someone would plant grass in a potted plant?

This kind of behaviour was a little shocking.

Ye Heng was exasperated by the applicant.

This time, to increase the number of employees, the requirements for their education and work experience were not high.

The tasks given to the employees by the company were not difficult.

After all, if they were bright and flexible enough, they would be able to do the work.

Ye Heng mainly wanted to observe the employees’ personalities and see if they were suitable to work with plants.

However, some of these applicants didn’t have any knowledge about plants at all, while others immediately backed out when they heard that they were going to the Gobi Desert.

In less than two hours, these people had all left.

As for Meihua, she was sitting in the waiting area at this time. She suddenly felt a little nervous as she watched these people leave dejectedly.

Even though she was no longer a fresh new graduate, but this was her first time going through an interview.

Therefore, she could be considered a complete and utter newbie in the workplace.

It was normal for her to be nervous now.

Not long after, she heard the Human Resource personnel say, “Next interviewee please.”

There were no more interviewees in front of her. This time, they were talking about her.

After entering the door, the interviewer that she saw was a mature male.

Even though he didn’t look that handsome, but in terms of looks, he could be considered above average.

Not to mention that he had an extremely manly and mature disposition and was full of drive.

Meihua had seen many people before but she couldn’t help but take another look at him.

“Alright, please introduce yourself,” Ye Heng said.

After interviewing so many people, he was already a little impatient.

But at this time, he continued to speak calmly.

“My name is Kong Meihua.”

“I graduated from Nanjing University of Finance and Economics. I’m twenty-three years old this year and I don’t have much work experience.”

Hearing the girl’s hesitant voice, Ye Heng didn’t say anything.

Then, he slowly opened his mouth to comfort her.

“The assistant that I want does not need any work experience.”

“Now, let me ask you a very simple question. What kind of plant do you think is growing in this pot?”

Ye Heng spoke.

Meihua was stunned.

Then, she carefully examined the potted plant.

She spoke with some hesitation.

“It looks like mugwort.”

“Not bad. You’re the first person among so many people to be able to identify this plant correctly.”

“The others either say that this is grass or say that this is a flower.”

“There are also some people who simply don’t say it.”

When Ye Heng heard her answer, his eyes instantly lit up and he took one look at Meihua.

When both their eyes met, Ye Heng’s heart skipped a beat.

“I didn’t expect this girl to be so beautiful.”

But Ye Heng was not focused on her appearance.

Although Meihua didn’t give a very good answer, she was qualified to be his assistant.

“If I need to send you to the Gobi Desert because of work, will you agree?”

Ye Heng paused and asked.

Before her, when the people who came for the interview heard that they were going to work in the Gobi Desert, they immediately gave up.

First of all, they didn’t want to go there because the environment there was too harsh.

Girls didn’t like dry places because the lack of water would damage their skin.

“What, we’re going to the desert?” Meihua was stunned, her eyes were wide open and she had a shocked expression on her face.

“Could it be that you plan to develop plants that can adapt to the desert?”

“Yes.” Ye Heng said.

“Of course! I want to see how the Cosmic Planting flagship store can turn the desert into an oasis.”

“After all, I believe in the Cosmic Planting flagship store’s plants.”

“Cosmic Planting can completely transform an extremely harsh environment such as the desert into something else.”

After hearing this, Ye Heng immediately laughed.

“Student Meihua, I’m glad to announce that you are hired.”

“I can’t believe I got hired just like that!”

Meihua was extremely shocked, she couldn’t even imagine she was picked amongst so many interviewees to eventually become the assistant.

Although her university was not bad, the interviewees who were before her were simply too strong.

There were people from different universities and different majors.

Many of them even had work experience.

But she, who had no work experience, was hired.

“Yes, you can go to the Human Resource Department this afternoon.”

“By that time, your supervisor will discuss with you about the salary and working conditions.”

“You also need to sign the labour contract.”

“Don’t forget to bring a copy of your identification card and all kinds of documents.”

“You can start work tomorrow.”

Ye Heng said.

“Okay, Boss!”

Meihua was astonished by the development of things but she replied to him happily.

Although she was no longer a cosplayer, she could still get a job that she was interested in.

This was a good thing to her.

She could only do her model job while she was in her youth.

Her parents didn’t like her being a model.

But now that she got this new job, she could also get the support of her parents.

“If I post it on my WeChat Moment, no one in the group will believe it.”

“But after that, I won’t be an otaku anymore.”

“I’ll be a white-collar worker with a real job.”

Meihua immediately cheered herself on.

It had been three months since Cosmic Planting started operations.

But every time, it was able to reap profits of substantial amounts.

Its prospect was prosperous and promising.

Meihua believed that this flagship store could change the entire world.

The future was unlimited.

If she could be a part of it, it would be great for her.

Being able to be the boss’s assistant would allow her to gain more knowledge.

Her future would be incomparably bright!
