98: Chapter 98 Attending Qin Xun's interview will be a lifelong disgrace.
The singing continued.
Xia Ning stared back at Qin Xun with an expressionless face for a while, but ultimately, she couldn't stand the glimmer of tears in his eyes and slowly lowered her head.
Her hands, resting on the table, clasped together somewhat uneasily.
Suddenly.
"Ah?"
She heard a cry of surprise from Cheng Wan beside her. Turning her head to look, she found Cheng Wan looking helpless, her face slightly flushed.
Following Cheng Wan's dodging gaze, Xia Ning saw that Qin Xun was now singing toward Cheng Wan.
"I want to take you to see the clear, endless sky."
"I want to tell you loudly that I'm fascinated by you."
"The past passes in a hurry."
"You will always be moved."
His voice was still gentle.
He was still full of deep affection.
He was still... utterly shameless.
Just as Cheng Wan was blushing with embarrassment and didn't know where to hide, Xia Ning saw Qin Xun suddenly turn around and slowly walk toward the interviewees below.
"The past passes in a hurry, you will always be moved."
"For the rest of my life, I only want you."
The interviewees looked both awkward and excited. Before long, a girl took the lead and raised her hands, waving them above her head.
Gradually, all eight people were gently waving their arms.
Like fans of a pop star at a concert.
Qin Xun's singing remained steady.
"For the rest of my life, the winter snow is you."
"The spring flowers are you, and so is the summer rain."
...
Watching Qin Xun's back, Xia Ning quietly let out a breath and revealed a complex smile.
Using such a good song just to mess with people?
I almost... fell for your trick!
She thought of how Niu Xiaojun, seeing her living alone in the villa, had advised her to buy a dog to raise as a son for companionship, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly.
A dog son?
Now, she already had a roommate who respected her like a mother but was also as shameless as a dog.
She already had a dog son!
...
The song ended.
The crowd below burst into applause; the atmosphere was enthusiastic.
Qin Xun asked, "Do you want to learn?"
Everyone shouted in unison, "Yes!"
Qin Xun asked again, "Can you learn?"
Everyone shouted in unison, "Yes!"
Qin Xun asked once more, "Will you learn?"
Everyone shouted loudly, "Yes!"
Watching the lively scene, Xia Ning was a bit puzzled. Based on her understanding of Qin Xun, things shouldn't be developing this way.
Shouldn't he be teaching them Surname Shout-Singing?
Like, "My surname is Xia, X-I-A Xia!"
At this moment.
She heard Qin Xun change his tone.
"But unfortunately, the song I'm going to teach you isn't this one!"
Everyone below was stunned.
Qin Xun continued.
"Learning and performing a song like this in public doesn't reflect your strong psychological resilience. The song I just sang was only a prelude to the true test that follows."
He looked at the job seekers and asked with a rhythmic tone.
"Are you ready?"
The crowd dithered for a moment, then nodded gently.
Suddenly!
Qin Xun burst into song, going wild.
"Du du du du"
"Du du du du"
"Du du du du du du du du du du hey!"
"Du du du du"
"Eh, du du du du du"
"Du du du du"
...
Everyone looked at each other. Thinking about having to perform this song later, their toes curled in embarrassment.
Cheng Wan looked shocked. She quickly glanced at the glass wall and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the blinds were down.
This President Qin... really doesn't have a shred of idol baggage.
Xia Ning looked at the energetic Qin Xun, was momentarily stunned, and then rested her forehead in her hand with a bitter smile.
This was the real him!
Suddenly.
She heard the lyrics Qin Xun continued to sing, and her face turned cold.
"Everybody, get hyped!"
"So what if I'm wild?"
"I'm just not wearing clothes, so what?"
"I'm just the wildest Beast of Burden!"
"What are you going to do about it?"
...
Xia Ning's fists clenched tight.
Cheng Wan: "????"
She glanced at the glass wall again, only hoping it was soundproof enough.
The job seekers were all dumbstruck, staring at Qin Xun with their mouths wide open.
Uh... this...
Is it any wonder Qin Xun could become an internet celebrity?
This psychological resilience?
This...
This is just being shameless, right?
...
The song ended.
The smiles from before had vanished from everyone's faces. They were either looking awkward, dejected, or flushing red.
Suddenly.
A girl weakly raised her hand.
"President Qin, my psychological resilience isn't that strong, and my ability to handle pressure is lacking. I'll... be going now."
After saying that, she stood up and fled toward the door, pulling it open and leaving.
With someone taking the lead, the remaining people all raised their hands.
"President Qin, I've been thin-skinned since I was a kid!"
"President Qin, I just remembered I have a pot of mutton soup simmering at home and forgot to turn off the stove. I'll be going now!"
"President Qin, you're someone destined for great things, but I'm not. I... want to keep my dignity!"
...
In a short while.
All eight people had run away, leaving only one girl.
Qin Xun stepped forward, first glancing down at her legs to judge that there should be no problem.
A gentle smile appeared on his face.
"Beautiful lady, do you want to learn this song?"
The woman looked up, a flash of determination in her eyes as if she had made a decision that went against her ancestors. She nodded seriously.
"President Qin, I... I want to take on the challenge!"
Qin Xun's eyes lit up.
"Young person, I have high hopes for you!"
He said slowly.
"Are you ready?"
The woman clasped her hands together, looked up at Qin Xun, nodded seriously, and took a few deep breaths.
She opened her mouth with difficulty.
"Du du du... du du..."
Her voice grew smaller and smaller.
Suddenly!
She stood up, her face bright red, and bowed to Qin Xun.
"I'm sorry, President Qin!"
"Sorry for the trouble!"
With that, she lowered her head and jogged out of the meeting room.
...
In the company office.
The colleagues saw the eight job seekers running out one by one like refugees, and they couldn't help but feel some admiration.
"As expected of President Qin, his requirements for hiring an assistant are indeed high."
"He made those people feel inferior!"
"Sigh... not a single one was suitable!"
"If I could transfer posts, I'd want to be President Qin's assistant."
...
Seeing that the job seekers had all run off, Cheng Wan felt somewhat helpless.
The girls in the HR Department had chatted with these people for a long time to filter them out one by one, and this was the result?
What kind of interview was this?
First, he called President Xia 'Mom' in public, then sang affectionately, making President Xia think he was going to confess, but then he shared the love with everyone.
Every single person enjoyed President Qin's gentle voice and gaze, regardless of gender.
And finally, he sang about "not wearing clothes"?
He scared all the interviewees away!
Not wearing clothes is against the law, don't you know?
Xia Ning looked at Qin Xun's back, frowning slightly.
Qin Xun pulled up his system panel and his eyes lit up.
[slacking-off value: 3260]
[Next lucky draw requires 100,000 slacking-off value]
He was very happy.]
His slacking-off value had jumped by nearly 3,000 points in one go.
This was the right path!
Work has to be wild!
The more unhinged, the better!
...
Qin Xun turned around, looked at the silent Xia Ning and Cheng Wan, and smiled.
"Young people these days just don't have strong psychological resilience."
Xia Ning: "..."
Cheng Wan sighed.
If the job seekers had been told the content of the interview beforehand, probably not a single person would have come.
Qin Xun smiled.
"Sister Wan, please step up the efforts."
"I want to interview more people tomorrow!"
Suddenly, he saw Xia Ning's hesitant expression and her somewhat unpleasant complexion, so he asked.
"What's wrong with you?"
"I'm hiring a Little Assistant, and you, the Big Assistant, are jealous?"
