G-Global
As soon as she got down from the car, she head straight for the restaurant.
Li Muchen looked at her retreating figure and finally laughed. He had tried his best to act neutral throughout but now that she was gone, he released all the repressed laughter.
"She couldn't even wave goodbye or wait till I drove off?" He asked himself as he accelerated the car.
She was really something!
*************
Sara had just stepped into the restaurant when she was intercepted by two people. One was big and masculine while the other was small and feminine. They were none other than Jianjun and Joreen Wang.
Before Jianjun Wang could say a word, Joreen beat him to it with her line of questions.
"Sis, Who was that just now? How was your interview? Did you get the job? I've been waiting for you to get here for ages now!" She asked as she pulled her to a seat close to the window.
The restaurant was small and was only able to accommodate about five to six tables and the chairs around it.
During afternoons like this, it was mostly quiet and isolated so there were no customers around. But during the evenings, the number of people there were always so much. After the day's event, most people usually came over to chill and relax with a bottle of liquor and nice hot soups especially with their friends or family members.
Thankfully, he had the pass to set extra tables and chairs outside the restaurant at nights to accommodate more people.
Sara usually assisted him whenever she returned from work but he had stopped her and employed a 20years old male because he believed she would be too stressed out. Plus, it was not a conducive environment for a young lady especially when the men were most of the time, drunk.
She had even almost gotten into a brawl with the customers several times but always tried to control her temper because she did not want to ruin her Father's business.
Sara decided to play a prank on the both of them when they both sat at the seat opposite her with curious gazes.
She looked at them with a downcast expression. When Joreen saw her look, she started crying softly and spoke with her head down on the table.
"I'm sorry sis, it's my fault for talking too much about it"
Jianjun who was beside her patted her back gently and spoke softly with a sad expression.
"It's not your fault Jo. Stop crying or you will make your big sister sadder"
Sara couldn't help laughing when she heard them. She stretched her hand to ruffle Joreen's hair and winked at her.
"Of course I got the job"
Joreen suddenly raised her head and looked at her in shock. Jianjun Wang was also surprised when he heard her.
"You really got the job?" Jianjun asked. The surprise could obviously be heard in his voice.
"Of course. If I don't who will?" She asked with a haughty smile.
Joreen suddenly jumped from her chair and hugged Sara as she spoke happily.
"Sis, I knew you would do it. I'm so proud of you"
*************
Pffffft!
Joreen suddenly spat out the juice in her mouth when she heard what Sara had just said.
"Hey careful!" Sara scolded as she used her hankie to clean her shirt. She was sitting directly opposite Joreen so she had the greatest impact than Jianjun Wang.
Joreen didn't care about anything else and just asked.
"C...CEO Li Muchen? You are sure it was CEO Li Muchen?"
Jianjun was also surprised. He hadn't expected her employer to be from the Li family. Even those who knew nothing about business, also knew of that family. Take Joreen for example.
Those were people who contributed greatly to their country's economy so who wouldn't know about them?
"No wonder the information on the flier was limited. He must have chosen to hide his identity so people with ulterior motive wouldn't apply or send someone there" He speculated.
"I also think that was why the overqualified were not accepted since they could be easily linked with the wrong people who knows? " Joreen added happily.
If Ms Long had heard them right now, she would probably be rolling on the floor in laughter at their weird speculations.
Sara just nodded in agreement to what they both assumed. It was not wrong to think so.
"Well, doesn't matter. I'll be able to buy us a new apartment soon" she said happily.
Joreen suddenly thought of something and her mouth was slightly agape.
"Was it him who dropped you off?"
When Sara nodded, Joreen was further bewildered.
"O M G! I thought he was an advanced man. But he is still so young?"
"Compared to you, He is an advanced man!" Jianjun said as he rolled his eyes at her.
"Why are you so Interested in him anyway?" Sara asked.
"Of course G-Global is a part of the Li Corporation. Why won't I be interested?"
"G-Global?" Sara finally remembered that G-Global was an entertainment company under Li corporation. Joreen had always loved the entertainment world and wanted so badly to be a part of it. So she had been keeping tabs on every information concerning G-Global in particular. It made sense that Joreen didn't know what Muchen looked like because no one knew much about him and his pictures were not seen.
"Sis, This is like a dream come true!" She exclaimed excitedly. As she moved to where Sara was and held her right hand with both her hands.
"Sis, sorry for spilling my drink on you earlier, I was just so excited" She said when she saw the orange dots on Sara's shirt.
"Or you could say spitting!" Sara corrected but didn't sound annoyed.
"Sis, can I meet him?" She asked, smiling widely.
"Jo, come sit down,she just got the job, she can't possibly be asking him for favours" Jianjun chipped in.
"Jo, dad is right. Besides, he is so unapproachable. But I promise you, Once I get the chance, I will bring you to meet with him okay?" She said while patting her hair softly.
Joreen's smile grew wider as she hugged her and spoke
"Thank you so much sis. I promise once I become a popular actress, I will make sure you meet with whoever you wish to" She promised.
"...and I will no longer get angry when you ruffle my hair"
Joreen's afro hair was so precious to her. She didn't like anyone touching it. She always reminded them of how difficult it was to comb and style it.
Letting them ruffle it anytime, was the biggest gift she could give. No! Biggest sacrifice.
