It is said that in addition to Dawn's elites, there were Ares College seniors participating too. This was a great opportunity.
But why would she invite those two guys?
”Well, I look forward to your attendance. I will send you the invitation later.”
Yue Jing's and Ye Zisu's attitudes were surprisingly good today. It was the first time Yan Xiaosu was in such close proximity with the person he admired; this made him so happy he had long forgotten his own surname.
”Boss, tell me, what were my chances?”
Wang Zheng shrugged. The two girls were devilish, so Yan Xiaosu would not even be able to keep his bones if he fell into their grasps. But what could he say?
Miracles could happen, and perhaps he would be lucky.
In the distance, Yue Jing and Ye Zisu were also laughing very happily. ”Those two fools must be very happy and very surprised.”
”When that day comes, they will be even more surprised!” Yue Jing said coldly.
She heard from Ye Zisu how Wang Zheng was totally unfazed after their run-in, and because of her high self-esteem, she needed to let the idiot know the meaning of what was unattainable!
It was a sin for a lazy toad to lust over the meat of a swan. And it was even more of a sin for a lazy toad to ignore a swan!
The classroom basically turned into a tea party with everyone talking about their dreams and the future, and those who knew what they wanted to do were in high spirits. Yan Xiaosu could finally sleep quickly and smoothly without the teachers stopping him. Wang Zheng, on the other hand, was still pondering about his future.
Military college was out of the question because his genes did not even make the entrance requirement. He could only wait for the public enlistment drive of the military three months from now and thus, surviving these three months would be his priority. Now that he had pretty much graduated, apart from waiting to receive his diploma, it was high time to consider the future.
Wang Zhang opened his Skylink. There were many job vacancies nearby, but most of them required work experience, a minimum age of 20, and academic qualifications higher than middle school. Wang Zheng felt slightly depressed. Will he have to starve to death?
After school, Wang Zheng began his job hunt, but he found the search awkward. He was not good enough for a high post but too proud to take a low one. However, Together Duck Restaurant's opening for back kitchen workers could do.
Standing in front of the restaurant, Wang Zheng adjusted his look and put on a smile, a kind and sincere smile. A menial job shouldn't need technical skills.
Just as he was about to open the door, the door opened on its own. Were they so accommodating?
A figure came rushing towards Wang Zheng, and he dodged it almost instinctively.
”Help, baddies are chasing me!”
A pair of white jade hands suddenly grabbed the arms of Wang Zheng. Her cap was slightly raised, revealing a dirty little face.
Alas, it was a chance meeting.
Two waiters in black suits came rushing behind her, one of them bursting in foul language. ”You little bastard, since you dared to eat the Tyrannical King's Meal, you are courting death if you don't pay up! Pay up, or we'll beat the both of you.”
Truthfully, Wang Zheng really wanted to just forget about this situation and leave. But somehow, those pitiful eyes instantly made him soft-hearted. He was not sure how Bonehead would judge him if he saw this.
”How much money does she owe?” Wang Zheng asked concisely. A meal here should only cost ten dollars or so. Why would violence be necessary?
”Very well, 530 dollars. I'll give you a discount, so 500 dollars will do.”
”Don't pull my leg. This place only costs 100 or so at most!” Wang Zheng said in shock.
”Nonsense, this girl came in and ordered every dish!”
Student Wang learned a new lesson: don't play the hero if you're broke!
”I only have 300 dollars on me. Take it, or let's have the cops settle this.”
Wang Zheng shrugged his shoulders like a hoodlum. ”Or you could give me a beating too.”
Although he was feeling slightly depressed, not going all the way was not Wang Zheng's style.
Both waiters were stunned for a moment, then they gazed at Wang Zheng's 300 dollars and grabbed it. ”You two little bastards, scram!”
A punch came towards Wang Zheng.
Bang!
The waiter immediately clutched his hand and jumped backwards. Wang Zheng touched his own face and instantly took back a note from the 300 dollars. ”One shot for a hundred, but if you're not satisfied, you can try again.”
If anyone slaps you on the left cheek, turn to them the other cheek. A hundred dollars was enough to last a few days.
Both waiters looked at each other. One's hand was already swollen. They then looked fiercely at Wang Zheng and ran away.
Wang Zheng shrugged helplessly. Looks like he could not apply at this place anymore. Why was it so hard to find a job this year?
The girl followed him.
Wang Zheng stopped and turned around. The girl stopped as well and raised her head, showing those pitiful eyes again.
D**n, Wang Zheng was just about to roar in anger, but he swallowed it. This dirty girl's eyes had a strange kind of power.
”Classmate, we are both the world's scum, so there's no need to thank me and no need to follow me. Honestly, I am a pauper, and that was everything I had to my name. My next meal is not certain either. I may just need to have the 'King Meal' like you did.”
