This was probably the first time I spoke to Zou Yanzheng in a workplace.

I admit that my ears turned red because I was so close to him, and I whispered, "I just started working, I don't know if it's fixed yet."

Zou Yanzheng said, "You've been transferred to the front desk? I remember you were in the materials department before."

I was still very happy in my heart. Last time, cousin Liu Wen just said it casually, but he actually remembered it.

"Yes, I've just been transferred here two days ago." I nodded.

"Then please help me take a look. It seems that there was a problem with the projector in conference room number six. My meeting starts in half an hour." Zou Yanzheng said this in a businesslike manner and left.

I'm not familiar with things like projectors, so after Wang Su came back, I asked her to take me to check it out.

Wang Su patiently taught me how to use it, then said it was usable and asked me to notify Zou Yanzheng.

I went back to the front desk, picked up the landline, and dialed an internal number.

The person who answered the phone was Chou Yanzheng. Through the phone line, I could hear his voice, which was light and low.

After work, Wang Su and I are quite free, and we spend most of our time chatting about things that are not related to work.

Wang Su likes to play with her palm-sized face. When she took out a whole box of cosmetics, I was stunned.

Thinking back to my previous life, I almost always used Dabao facial cleanser for face application. The most expensive one I bought was a box of Korean brand, which cost over 300 yuan.

When I got home, Zhou Zeping got very angry and said I was wasting money.

It is now 2004, and Wang Su told me that this box of cosmetics of hers is worth nearly two thousand yuan.

That's two months' salary of mine, how dare she...

"Jingjing, do you know how to put on makeup?" Wang Su found that although I look okay, I go out without makeup every day.

I shook my head: "I've never learned how to put on makeup, and I don't know how to do it."

"Then I'll teach you." Wang Su immediately asked me to sit on a chair, and then she said to me: "A girl's face is very important. It's your golden signboard when you go out. You can't be careless about it."

I thought what she said made sense, so I nodded. "Yeah, I know. Actually, I've always wanted to learn makeup, but I heard it's very expensive."

"It's okay. I'll write you a list. These are all entry-level cosmetics that I've used and are relatively affordable. You can learn from them first." Wang Su started to put makeup on my face.

It was the first time I was treated so seriously. After more than ten minutes, Wang Su handed me a mirror and said, "Take a look. Is there anything you are not satisfied with? I will help you modify it."

In the mirror in my tiny palm, I see a brand new me.

Although I think I am beautiful without makeup, it is still not as bright and warm as with makeup. It is like a rose after the rain, exuding a charming scent.

It turns out that I look so beautiful when I am young and put on makeup.

"Wang Su, your family must be very rich. I see that you have very good food, clothing and other expenses." I asked her with envy on my face.

Wang Su curled his lips and said, "Then you are wrong. My family has no money. I earned all this money myself."

I had a look of disbelief on my face.

There was a hint of bitterness in Wang Su's beautiful eyes: "Don't you believe it? The money I have now is all earned by my own hard work."

I looked curious: "How do you make money?"

At the same age, why does she live a different life?

Wang Su looked at me mysteriously and smiled: "You'd better not ask. For a simple girl like you, there are some things that are best not to know."

In fact, I roughly guessed how Wang So made all this money. She must have gone out to make quick money. Now, she has made enough money and returned to a normal life.

"I really want to know." I showed a longing expression.

Wang Su sighed and picked up the water cup beside her and drank. "Some money is not so easy to make. You should find a good and rich man to marry."

When I heard her say this, a chill ran down my spine.

You should know that more than ten years later, this sentence will be a bad curse.

"It's better for me to be rich than my husband. I don't want to rely on a man." I have been asking for money for fifteen years and I am tired of it. So I know that being rich is the best way.

"I can't believe it, Jingjing. You're so young, but you have such novel ideas." Wang Su laughed, thinking that what I said was different.

I said with a smug look on my face, "This is the truth. Only when you hold the steering wheel in your own hands can you accurately reach where you want to go."

Wang Su thought my idea was too weird. She tried to persuade me earnestly: "Jingjing, although that's what you say, women are still not as good as men in making money. You don't understand. Ninety-nine percent of the rich people I know are men."

I know she has such a feeling because her money comes from the 99% of rich men.

Perhaps, in this day and age, calling for women's independence is a very unconventional thing.

"No matter how difficult it is, I hope I will be able to make money in the future. Wang Su, what is your dream?" I asked her curiously.

"I want to be a rich wife." Wang Su said without hesitation: "The kind that can just lie at home and do whatever I want. My husband can make money, I can give birth to children, and then I just need to pick them up and drop them off every day. Of course, I don't like hard work and fatigue, so it would be best if I could hire two nannies at home."

I looked at Wang Su staring out the gate with shining eyes, like a bird with a free soul.

"This is a good dream. You are so beautiful, it will definitely come true." I didn't dare to discourage her. I hope her wish will come true.

Wang Su immediately looked at me and said, "What's your wish?"

I blinked and whispered, "My wish is to become a wealthy woman and only date men under the age of 25."

After listening to this, Wang Su burst into laughter and began to think that I was an interesting person.

"Then your wish is really not something that everyone dares to think about." Wang Su covered his mouth and laughed.

I nodded. "That's why I have to work hard to improve my ability to make money. One day, my dream will come true."

Wang Su suddenly asked, "Do you know why my previous colleague resigned?"

I shook my head. I had seen the girl who walked with Wang Su before. She was a very pretty girl.

"She followed a Taiwanese man, who bought her a small apartment. Now she doesn't have to go to work every day and can still earn a lot of money." Wang Su said in a low voice.

My mouth opened wide. So that's what it was.

"So, Jingjing, I think you should change your dream and find a rich man to follow first." Wang Su asked softly.

I almost immediately shook my head and refused: "No, I don't want to be with a man. The person I want to marry in the future must be my husband."

Wang Su looked at me in disbelief, as if he thought I was an alien.

The next second, Wang Su looked behind me and smiled, "Director Zou, is the meeting over?"

I was startled and turned around to see Zou Yanzheng standing behind me without me noticing.

Did he hear what I just said?
