The next morning, Lu Youyou woke up slowly from her sleep, rubbed her sleepy eyes, but did not see Ji Xuyan.

After Lu Youyou simply washed up, she came to the restaurant. Aunt Zhang told her that Ji Xuyan had sent the children to kindergarten.

Lu Youyou couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this, thinking to himself:

I didn’t expect that he is such a competent father!

After breakfast, Lu Youyou prepared to go to the company.

Yesterday, Jiang Boming told her that the company would arrange an assistant for her and asked her to go for an interview today.

In fact, Lu Youyou doesn’t want to have an assistant following her all the time. After all, she is not a big star, and having someone following her would be troublesome.

But since she participated in a dating variety show with Ji Xuyan, her Weibo account has gained more than three million fans, and the number of fans on the entire network has increased by as much as five million. Now she can be considered a little famous.

Jiang Boming said that the company has already taken two endorsement contracts for her.

In a few days, the TV series "King Lan You" she filmed before will also be aired, which may attract more fans' attention then.

Considering that there may be some inconveniences in traveling in the future, I do need an assistant to help me deal with some things.

After Lu Youyou arrived at the company, she went straight to the meeting room.

She pushed open the door and found Ji Xiaofu and the HR were already sitting inside waiting.

Ji Xiaofu greeted Lu Youyou warmly and introduced the basic information of the interviewees to her.

Lu Youyou listened carefully and found that most of them were young and beautiful girls, and several of them were top students who graduated from prestigious universities.

Lu Youyou thought to himself:

Is such an outstanding person really willing to be my assistant?

With such questions, the interview officially began.

The first one to come in was a girl with long hair and a sweet smile.

She introduced herself with a smile: "Hello, my name is An Lulu, I'm 22 years old, and I graduated from the Imperial Capital Media Department..."

The next dozen or so interviewees also performed very well, which made Lu Youyou feel a little difficult to make a decision.

Just as she was hesitating, the last interviewee walked into the meeting room.

The moment Lu Youyou saw her, she was stunned.

What attracted Lu Youyou's attention was not just the girl's relatively simple dress.

More importantly, there were obvious bruises at the corners of her eyes, making her look like she had just been beaten.

"Hello, my name is Xia Mengyan, I'm 22 years old, and I graduated from A City Normal University..."

Xia Mengyan introduced herself with a smile.

"What's wrong with the corner of your eye?" Lu Youyou asked directly.

Xia Mengyan quickly touched the corner of her eyes and explained nervously:

"It's me...I accidentally bumped into the table yesterday..."

Lu Youyou interrupted her rudely, "You should know that we don't hire dishonest people."

"I'm sorry!" Xia Mengyan lowered her head and stammered, "This was...my stepfather who beat me."

Hearing this, Lu Youyou frowned even deeper.

It was hard for her to understand why such a young and beautiful girl would be abused like this?

She continued to ask: "He hit you, and you just let him hit you?"

There were tears in Xia Mengyan's eyes, but she tried hard to hold them back.

She answered with a slightly trembling voice: "He hit my mother, and I tried to stop him, so he hit me."

"Then why don't you take your mother away?" Lu Youyou continued to ask.

Xia Mengyan's eyes became dim, as if she was recalling some painful past events.

She sighed deeply and said slowly, "My mother is in poor health and unable to work, and we have nowhere else to go. My stepfather...he controls the family's finances. If we leave, we may not even be able to guarantee a basic living."

After hearing this, Lu Youyou felt a pang of sadness.

She realized that the dilemma Xia Mengyan faced was far more complicated than it seemed.

"Wipe your tears first!"

Lu Youyou said softly, handing her a pack of tissues.

Xia Mengyan took the tissue and nodded gratefully, but her tears still kept flowing.

"Thank you, Teacher Yoyo! I majored in education and just graduated this year. There is no salary during the internship, so I am eager to make money as soon as possible and take my mother away from him. I have always worked very hard and endured hardships. I..."

Xia Mengyan seemed to want to continue speaking, but her words were interrupted by Lu Youyou again.

"Okay, you go back first. Someone will inform you of the interview results later." Lu Youyou said to her with a smile.

"Okay, thank you Teacher Yoyo."

There was a hint of disappointment in Xia Mengyan's voice.

She thought to herself that there was probably no hope this time.

But she didn't say anything more, just turned around and left silently.

After Xia Mengyan left, Ji Xiaofu looked at Lu Youyou in surprise.

"Hey, you're not going to hire her, are you?"

Lu Youyou raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a smile.

"Sister Xiaofu, you really understand me more and more!"

Ji Xiaofu couldn't help but sigh and asked helplessly: "There are so many excellent applicants, but you didn't choose them. Can you tell me why?"

"Because she's short of money!"

Lu Youyou's answer was concise and direct.

Ji Xiaofu frowned, obviously confused by the answer.

She looked at Lu Youyou in confusion, waiting for further explanation.

Lu Youyou smiled gently and continued, "Sister Xiaofu, do you know? When a person is extremely short of money, he or she will often burst out with greater potential and motivation. I believe Xia Mengyan is such a person. She has a strong desire to make money, which will become the source of motivation for her hard work. Moreover, from her eyes, I see determination and persistence. I believe she will be a talent worth cultivating."

After listening to Lu Youyou's words, Ji Xiaofu nodded thoughtfully.

Although she still had reservations about this choice, she also understood that Lu Youyou had a unique vision in judging people.

Lu Youyou continued, "Our company needs not only talented and capable people, but also those who are determined and perseverant. Although Xia Mengyan may not be outstanding now, I believe that with our training, she will become an excellent employee!"

"However, her family situation is complicated, which may affect her work."

Ji Xiaofu expressed her concerns.

Lu Youyou thought for a moment and said, "If she has difficulties, we can work together to find a solution. After all, everyone has a past, and we can't deny a person's future because of her past."

Ji Xiaofu was finally persuaded by Lu Youyou.

She smiled and said, "Well, since you are so confident, I will look forward to her performance! I hope your judgment is correct."

Lu Youyou smiled confidently, as if she had already seen Xia Mengyan's future development prospects.

"Then I'll go to the crew first, and you can take care of other things." Lu Youyou said in a cheerful tone.

Ji Xiaofu smiled and nodded, and responded: "Okay, go ahead."

Then, she turned around and faced the person standing next to her and said:

"Contact Xia Mengyan immediately and inform her to report to our company tomorrow to officially start work."

"Got it, Sister Xiaofu."

After the HR staff answered, they quickly took action.
