There are actually three gifts in the office.

There are flowers from Tang Yuanyue, drawing tools from Du Zhaohui, and one from Matthew.

Matthew found that two Xia Xiaolan's gifts, flowers and gift boxes, came around the same day. He turned over her information and wrote her date of birth.

In order to please his immediate boss, Matthew hurried to buy a gift.

He gave Xia Xiaolan a book on architecture for $89. It's really not cheap.

It's also a practical gift. It's normal for Matthew to give it, but it's abnormal for Du Zhaohui to give it.

Xia Xiaolan called Matthew in:

"I'll give you the money for the book -"

"Do you look down on me?"

Matthew doesn't look good.

"No, it's impossible. It's just that we are all students. This book is not cheap."

Xia Xiaolan really thinks it's expensive.

American students often buy second-hand textbooks. Matthew may not use new textbooks himself. It's too expensive to send her such an expensive book.

Matthew suddenly laughed: "you didn't come to work on the 24th. The office gave us a bonus last month. Miss Tina and I went to the opera. We talked well. She basically agreed to give me the house to design."

So this gift not only flatters Xia Xiaolan, but also means thanking Xia Xiaolan.

Xia Xiaolan found a check in the drawer.

GMP gave her a $2000 bonus?

More than the internship salary she and Matthew received last month, and the tax paid was only more than 1200 US dollars. This is a tall GMP firm. Well-known architects earn a lot. The hard-earned new architects have just graduated, and the salary is estimated to be just enough to eat and rent a house.

"I thought there would be no bonus, Matthew. Thank you for your gift. I like it very much!"

I don't know how much bonus Matthew received. It should be the same as her. After all, they are both interns. Xia Xiaolan didn't take charge of Mrs. Wilson's entrustment last month. She still needs a bowl of water on the surface.

It's hard to say this month.

Kissinger said that the Commission for the renovation of the theater would give her a design Commission according to the standards of senior designers.

That's far more than $2000.

After all, the GMP budget for Mrs. Wilson's theater renovation is $2 million.

Matthew thought that Tina's decoration Commission was basically determined, and he was full of expectations for his income next month.

"I can't bear to leave."

Matthew is full of work passion. He can be entrusted and paid. His internship in GMP makes Matthew happy. Xia Xiaolan encouraged him: "after the renovation of the theater and Tina's entrustment, it's not difficult for you to enter GMP in the future."

Yes, now it depends on whether Tina's Commission will find Matthew.

"Miss Tina obviously likes you better..."

That's what Matthew doesn't understand.

Xia Xiaolan doesn't seem to have such a good relationship with Mrs. Wilson.

The entrustment of $2 million is to name Xia Xiaolan to be responsible.

Tina is even more ridiculous. She met Xia Xiaolan for the first time that day and suddenly wanted to ask Xia Xiaolan to help design the residential decoration scheme... Xia Xiaolan also said that it was difficult to pry open the door of the upper east district. It was a liar. It was clear that before she reached out, the people in the Upper East District stood in the door and pulled her hard, okay!

Thinking of this, Matthew looked strange:

"Seriously, I've endured it for a long time and always wanted to ask, do you have a special family background in China? Although China's economy is underdeveloped, maybe your family is a Chinese political dignitary -- "

Xia Xiaolan thought, ha ha.

She told Matthew that the Xia family had been poor farmers for three generations, and Matthew probably didn't believe it.

But when it comes to dignitaries, Comrade Tang is still far from important officials.

Xia Xiaolan cleared her throat and Matthew looked forward. As a result, Xia Xiaolan knocked on the table:

"What are you still doing standing and telling Lisa how the drawings are?"

If the team leader asks for a day off, it doesn't mean that the whole team will have a holiday. The work to be done still needs to be done!

Matthew raised his middle finger to Xia Xiaolan in his heart, but he ran out with the wind under his feet.

For that bonus check.

For Tina's commission.

He decided not to quarrel with Xia Xiaolan!

This time, Lisa honestly followed Xia Xiaolan's command and helped a lot in refining the whole concept map.

In the middle, Zhou Yi also called Xia Xiaolan and said that she found a part-time job in the back kitchen of the Chinatown Chinese restaurant near the language school, which was introduced by a Chinese student in class 108 of the language school.

The other party also works in the same Chinese restaurant. They can go back to school together after work at night.

As long as you are not alone, the probability of being robbed is greatly reduced.

The salary is not high.

At present, the minimum hourly salary in the United States is $4, and the owner of Chinese restaurant only gives them $1.50 / hour.

"How many hours a day?"

"5-6 hours, 2 hours at noon, longer at night, and two meals."

Zhou Yi is still very optimistic. She works six hours a day to get $9. The salary is very low in the United States. No Americans are willing to do it at all. The national minimum hourly salary is $4. The owners of Chinese restaurants squeeze too much.

But this money does not have to pay taxes, but also saves two meals. For most students, it is a net income. If Zhou Yi doesn't go, naturally others are willing to go.

The owner of the Chinese restaurant does not lose money for two meals. After all, it is a restaurant. There are plenty of leftovers that guests haven't touched. As long as Zhou Yi doesn't dislike it, it's no problem to eat casually... Zhou Yi is not qualified to dislike it.

Xia Xiaolan heard that she was very optimistic and left it alone. She waited for Zhou Yi to toss about.

On her side, she was busy until the end of the month. Two days after her internship at CMP, she finished the drawings for the renovation of the theater and handed them to Lisa. "Matthew and I won't come to the office tomorrow."

Lisa didn't react at first:

"Why?"

"Because our internship is over."

Lisa: "...!"

She completed a commission with an intern!

She was led by another intern to complete a commission!

Xia Xiaolan stretched out her hand, "it's been hard and happy cooperation during this period."

At first it was a little unpleasant.

The back is slowly in tune. Lisa is not one track minded.

The hands of the two people were held together, which was a little like a smile devoid of gratitude and hatred.

Kissinger said that he had a farewell party for Xia Xiaolan and Matthew in the evening. If the people in the office were willing to attend, they would stay after work.

"Mr. Kissinger, you are so --"

Matthew choked with emotion.

Kissinger looked at Matthew as if he were looking at a sand sculpture. Young people's lacrimal glands are always very developed, but what is the little intern excited about? He just politely added Matthew's name.

Everyone with a clear eye knows that this is a party for Xia!

Alas, it's better not to pierce the illusion of young people. Kissinger showed a kind smile:

"It should be. You performed very well during your internship! I hope GMP will be the first choice for you to work after graduation! "

——Oh, who didn't even want an intern before?
