Chapter 25 (1/2)

Chapter 25 Brush Past AgainIt is just 7:00am when Lin Luoran wakes up. This sleep can be described as refres.h.i.+ng. The mind is so fantastic like a rotating “eye” with every detail unconcealed under its guard. It can see a meter around even with the eyes closed.

Needless to say, Lin Luoran knows what she is doing—cultivate herself to be immortal. That must be pursuing immortality, otherwise why are there such a magical spirit and inward vision?

The defect is that though she has found the Reiki inside her body, she cannot control it. Whenever she tries to command it, the Reiki completely ignores her. After trying again, there is still no response. Lin Luoran has to give up the idea.

The phone rings, it is Baojia, and Lin Luoran knows that she is urging her.

As expected, when poking out her head, Lin Luoran finds that Baojia is waiting for her with her new car in the yard downstairs. Lin goes downstairs with a large bag of vegetables on hand, which Baojia loves so much that she immediately takes the bag from Lin, finding cherry tomatoes to eat.

The keen-witted and capable city beauty is now like an agile rabbit who is eating cherry tomatoes. Lin Luoran holds back her smile and reminds, “Mind your makeup. You will go to work later.

Baojia closes the car door and pouts, “why don’t you drive your own car? In that case, I don’t need to pick you up!”

Lin Luoran cleverly zips her mouth not arguing with Baojia. Baojia is a famous “Qin designer” in her field, while Lin Luoran is just a shop a.s.sistant during her interns.h.i.+p. Therefore, it will be so showy to drive to work by her BMW.

Both of them should first go to report to the administration building of Liu’s Jewelry. Baojia is to go to the design department while Lin Luoran to the sales field. The first floor of Liu’s Jewelry Administration Building is about two or three hundred square feet, which is the largest dales field in R City compared with other general department stores in which there are only a few counters.

The store manager is a woman in her thirties, wearing a black suit and a pair of rimless gla.s.ses with meticulous makeup—what a decent appearance. However, she is old, so small wrinkles cannot be covered by powder and can be seen behind the lens.

“h.e.l.lo, Manager Zhou. I’m the new here. You can call me Lin Luoran.”

Lin Luoran stretches out her hand and smiles calmly at Manager Zhou.

Manager Zhou immediately looks Lin Luoran up and down without showing her feelings. At first, she is not satisfied with Lin Luoran who is 27 years old with no working experience. Lin’s high school degree makes her believe that Lin may have pulled the strings to be hired.

Bosses don’t necessarily hate people who have powerful connections. But as for those who have a strong background while lack ability, she doesn’t like them for she is not allowed to fire them easily.

From the beginning, Manager Zhou has defined Lin Luoran as the kind of people she doesn’t like. But now she has slightly changed her idea at the first sight of Lin Luoran who is graceful and elegant without divulging her age at all.

Looking someone up and down is not aggressive. Manager Zhou smiles, “Follow me to get your work clothes.”

The suits worn by shop a.s.sistants are the same design as that of the manager. What different is the color. Those general shop a.s.sistants are dressed in pink and white, which is more elegant, s.h.i.+ning with emerald and jade.

It is clear that Liu’s administrative efficiency is very high, since the suit issued to Lin Luoran fits very well; what’s more, her chest cards are set within three days.

Pink is fond of by most female. Almost every girl had a dream to become a princess. Put the dream aside, pink clothes are difficult to suit people: they reinforce each other with fair-skinned people, while women with darker skin do not look that beautiful in the pink suits.

Of course, Lin Luoran feels no pressure wearing it due to her jade-like skin. Besides, jealousy can be seen from the faces of the shop a.s.sistants here when she is guided by Manager Zhou to counters.

They make self-introductions briefly one after another with Manager Zhou as the middleman. Lin Luoran is new here so there is no counter of her. What she can do now is to do some trifles for the present counters.

During the limited spare time, Lin Luoran needs to learn the brief introductions of different kinds of emerald, jade and precious gemstones. Had it not been for Lin Luoran’s excellent memory, she will feel at loss seeing such a large pile of boring data.

Lin Luoran looks much younger though the shop a.s.sistants are younger than her. They consider Lin as a just graduate student. At first, they feel it may be difficult to get along with Lin Luoran for her beautiful appearance, while they begin to call her “Xiao Lin” for her gentle and amiable att.i.tude after being with her for half a day.
