Chapter 114: The Lingering Bai Yi
After seeing the person inside clearly, Ning Yuechen's first reaction was: Why is Bai Yi still lingering around?
Since he rejected her proposal last time and the two of them parted ways unhappily, this person has not appeared again. She thought that he was just in a momentary mood, or just wanted to test her, so she didn't care. But she didn't expect that just after the final exam, this person appeared again.
Thinking of this, Ning Yuechen felt annoyed.
The next moment, Bai Yi said in a commanding tone: "Get in the car."
Facing her strength, Ning Yuechen said directly: "Boss Bai, if you have any purpose, you can speak openly. There is no need to do this."
"My purpose is very simple, come back to the Bai family with me."
"and then?"
Ning Yuechen didn't know where he got the courage from: "Will you continue to torture me by locking me in the basement? Or do you want to use me again and get something from Aunt Shi? Mr. Bai, don't be too greedy."
Bai Yi was not annoyed by her sarcastic words. Instead, he said with interest: "Ning Yuechen, I like you more like this."
"Boss Bai, you are joking. I can't bear your liking. I'm afraid it will shorten my life."
After saying this, Ning Yuechen walked away without even looking back.
The driver in the driving seat asked: "Boss Bai, do you want to stop her?"
Bai Yi looked at the person leaving with a deep gaze and said, "No need."
Sure enough, even a docile kitten would think it had grown claws to fight against enemies after staying outside for too long. Little did it know that this seemingly sharp weapon was the most vulnerable. The previous Ning Yuechen would not and would not dare to confront himself like this.
Since the method of negotiation didn't work, she could only ask the other party to take the initiative to return to the Bai family.
Ning Yuechen almost jogged all the way to the bus stop. She hid herself behind the bus stop sign and then secretly looked in the direction of the school gate. She breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that the black Bugatti had left.
She didn't know where she got the courage and bravery to confront Bai Yi like that. Maybe it was because she no longer needed to rely on the Bai family and no longer had Aunt Shi as a weak spot, so she could express her true emotions to Bai Yi without any scruples.
Although this was the case, for some reason, the familiar feeling of uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the way Bai Yi looked at her now always carried some kind of indescribable aggression.
But she couldn't figure out how she had offended this plague god after leaving the Bai family, so that she came to her again without explaining the reason.
Although Bai Yi used to be unpredictable, she would not hide her dislike for me, and would also use all means to force me to leave. She was openly targeting me for all the bad things I did to her. She was not like now, so moody and unpredictable that people could not understand her behavior at all.
With such an uneasy mood, Ning Yuechen came to the animation company that she had arranged in advance. In order to apply for the original artist position, she specially brought her previous award-winning works and the more creative game character design drafts that she had just completed recently.
The interviewer flipped through her works one by one, his eyes flashing with admiration, and asked: "Did you complete all these independently?"
"Yeah, I can also create on the spot." Ning Yuechen said.
The interviewer looked at her again and asked, "You are proficient in using software like PS and SAI, right?"
Ning Yuechen calmly replied: "Sure, in addition to PS and SAI, I can also use CSP. I am proficient in using all the software generally used for painting."
When she first showed talent and strong interest in this area, Aunt Shi immediately invited a famous original artist to be her mentor, and all the equipment she bought for her were the most advanced ones at the time.
If she had not had such good creative conditions and environment, she would not have been able to stand out in various competitions with her advanced and bold innovative thinking and technically strong design capabilities when she first entered the industry.
Because of this, she was confident about this interview.
The interviewer put down the last piece of work and said, "You must be Chen Yu, who was widely rumored in the design circle in the past two years but never showed up. If I hadn't seen these works of yours, I really couldn't imagine that a great figure in the OC circle would come to our company for an interview. And in such a low-key manner."
In response to her praise, Ning Yuechen just smiled faintly and said, "You are too kind. I just posted a few drawings in the community, but I didn't expect that they would be liked by everyone. I am also flattered by this."
"Since the game characters you drew were so popular, why did they suddenly disappear?" the interviewer asked curiously.
The few drawings of game characters posted online by the original artist with the online name "Chen Yu" caused a small shock in the circle and even aroused suspicion and discussion among the majority of netizens.
If it weren't for the combination of explosive imagination and inspiration, superb creativity and character design ability, as well as technically strong drawing skills, it would be impossible to complete such a soulful work in just one stroke, and not just one, but several.
It is for this reason that one cannot help but suspect that behind these works is actually the joint efforts of a team.
But I don’t know if the author couldn’t stand such a big controversy. After publishing these works, he disappeared and has never been seen in the OC circle since then.
They didn't expect that such a mysterious big shot would come to their company to apply for a job. It was like they had found a treasure, but it was also unbelievable.
Ning Yuechen did not directly respond to her question, but only said: "Later I went to college, and the workload at school was heavy, so I stopped creating."
In fact, the truth is, she was locked up in the basement of the winery by Bai Yi at that time. When she came out, she was disheartened and troubled by life. She didn't have enough time to complete a work and could only take some simpler private jobs.
Maybe it was because of that experience, but her creative ability is not as good as before, and she can no longer draw the kind of vivid and bright characters that she was best at before.
After leaving the game company, Ning Yuechen went to a five-star hotel in the city to apply for a waiter position. The reason for choosing this hotel is that the salary is high and the dormitory environment is also very good.
The interview went well and she was hired on the spot.
Because both interviews today went smoothly, Ning Yuechen sent messages to the two companies he was going to interview tomorrow on his way back to school, informing them that he had found a job and expressing his apologies.
The two companies she interviewed today were the ones she wanted to go to the most. Now that she has been accepted by both, there is no need to consider other options.
Just when Ning Yuechen was about to go to work at the game company, he received a call from the other party.
The HR apologized on the phone and said that their company does not accept interns, and that the interviewer yesterday did not understand clearly and gave her the offer immediately. They also said that they would give her a certain amount of liquidated damages as compensation in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Code.
Although Ning Yuechen felt very disappointed, she had nothing to say since the other party was willing to pay the penalty. After hanging up the phone, she directly sent her bank card number to the other party. After all, she did reject the high-paying offer from the hotel because she chose this company.
Five minutes later, Ning Yuechen was stunned when he saw the bank's payment information on his mobile phone.
She thought that the penalty would not be much, after all, she was just a freshman on internship, but she did not expect to be directly compensated with three months' salary.
