Shang Muxia was quite familiar with the surroundings, and easily found a place to drink.

"Hello, miss. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"A cup of milk tea, third brother, thank you."

Shang Muxia did not want to gift him a rose, so she smiled at the shop assistant, politely shook his head, and indicated that there was no need.

She couldn't help but laugh at herself. She had never thought that she would end up like this. Not only did she have to spend Valentine's Day alone, but she also had to buy cakes to participate in events to get a rose. It was really pitiful.

Shang Muxia held the milk tea that she had just bought, and lightly sipped. As expected, it still tasted different from before, and as expected, nothing remained the same, just like how she and Lin Zhiqian were before. After relieving her thirst, Shang Muxia was prepared to interview another company that specializes in interior design. The company from earlier clearly admired her a lot, but it was just that there was no following, which made Shang Muxia feel that it was a little strange. She hoped that this family would give her an answer regardless of whether she recorded it or not.

Oh right, the old bald man who interviewed her spoke of all sorts of grand principles for too long. She noticed that the socks on his head were not a pair. It was obvious that he didn't notice what she was wearing. Shang Muxia now felt in her heart that the bald old man was probably an unreliable person in and of himself, so he was naturally less suspicious about the job.

The milk tea was too big, she only needed to quench her thirst and put it in the trash before she finished drinking it. Shang Muxia remembered that this milk tea was something that she would definitely order whenever she played with Lin Zhiqian during school. The milk tea she was drinking now tasted different from the one she had had back then.

"Shang Muxia, oh Shang Muxia, why are you thinking about him so much, don't bring disgrace to yourself, change everything, if you have time, why don't you think about the job interview later."

Shang Muxia arrived on time, but there was actually no one at the front desk. After waiting for a long time, the front desk lady then lazily walked over.

"Hello, I'm here for an interview today."

The receptionist didn't even look at her as she took out the registration form and threw it.

"Sign it. After you finish, someone will bring you in."

Shang Muxia felt that the receptionist was powerful, just that no matter what the receptionist was, it was not her place to care. She politely nodded her head, picked up her pen and started writing seriously at the side.

After filling in the form, the front desk lady took her resume and went into an office. After a while, she came out again and told Shang Muxia to follow her in.

She looked around the company curiously. The working environment was pretty good. There were also a lot of people in the company. It seemed like the company was quite big.

Shang Muxia followed the front desk into a conference room, and started a new round of interviews.

The content of the interview was similar to that of this morning's, and the details were the same as well.

However, after she had finished speaking, the interviewer clearly showed no interest in her. After hearing this, he told her to go home and wait for news.

In the next few days, Shang Muxia went to interview a few companies everyday.

Every company was the same. At first, they were all very satisfied with her, but after a while, it was as if their faces changed and they told her to go home and wait for news.

Every single company was like that, so after the last company finished their interview and spoke to her in such a manner, Shang Muxia could not help but be filled with suspicions.

"I don't know if it's because I'm not proficient enough or because my performance just now dissatisfied you and you don't want me to accept it, but you'd better explain it to me on the spot. Don't let me go back and wait for news."

When the interviewer heard her words, she didn't get angry. Instead, she had a strange expression on her face as she silently said this.

"Miss Shang Muxia, you are really outstanding, I admire you a lot, but there is nothing I can do about it."

Shang Muxia did not want to continue listening to him, so she picked up her resume and turned to leave.

Looking at her departing figure, the interviewer felt a bit of regret. He really wanted such an outstanding talent, but what could he do?

On the way back, Shang Muxia only felt a belly full of grievances. It was like this every single time for so many days, without even telling her a reason, and only told her to go back and wait for news.

She was really impatient and didn't know what to do now.

She was already used to the busy days of the rising stars. Suddenly relaxing made her feel a sense of crisis.

Just as Shang Muxia was about to open the door, her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was her landlady.

"What is it, landlady?" Shang Muxia greeted politely.

"Miss Shang, did you forget to pay me this month's rent? This is already the 14th. Originally, we were all renting on the 8th." The landlady reminded her kindly.

"Aiya, just look at how busy I am. Wait a moment, I'll go to the bank in the afternoon and call your rent." Shang Muxia said.

"Mm, that's good. Then I have nothing else to do, so I'll leave it like this." The landlady hung up.

For a moment, Shang Muxia felt that she was really in a predicament. She looked at the balance in her bank account, if she could not find a job, after she finishes paying the rent, she would probably have to wait for north wind to drink.

At this moment, Shang Muxia only felt a familiar figure flash by in the corner of her eyes.

She looked carefully, that person looked like someone at Lin Zhiqian's side.

Shang Muxia was puzzled, why did that person keep sneaking behind her?

Could it be that the reason why he couldn't find a job all the time was because of him? However, when he thought about it again, it did not seem like it, Lin Zhiqian would not waste so much effort on him.

But from the looks of it, it seemed to be true. Could it be that her constant rejection had something to do with Lin Zhiqian?

In order to confirm his thoughts, Shang Muxia purposely went around to an alley and stopped. As expected, after a while, the person who had been following behind him appeared.

She picked up a stick from the corner and swung it with all her might.

"Ouch." The man cried out in pain.

"Did Lin Zhiqian send you?" Shang Muxia asked him.

He should have been angry, but the man didn't say anything. He kept his head down, because he was still wearing his hat and he was holding me down so I couldn't see his face.

Shang Muxia was about to hit him again, but his hand stopped involuntarily in mid-air.

"Xiao Chen? Why is it you? "

Seeing that Shang Muxia had recognized him, she did not bother to hide, her head still lowered, as though she had done something shameful.

"Xiao Chen, are you following me?" Shang Muxia continued to question him.
