Then let the witch offer her loyalty

Using back channels is a very sensitive issue.

Just because you can see it everywhere doesn't mean it's allowed.

It's one thing to do it secretly under normal circumstances.

Making it so widely known will cause problems.

Imagine if you got in through connections and received special treatment during the interview, wouldn't it be easy for others to find out?

Then everyone will think: "Oh, you could tell this person was admitted through connections during the interview, the interviewer praised them endlessly."

How bad would it be if this got out?

But things are different now.

The examiner pretended to ignore Chen Moxin, who was admitted through connections, while outwardly showing her favor.

As a result, others will think that Chen Moxin got in through connections.

But in reality, he was just a scapegoat.

All the sarcastic remarks and ridicule would fall on Chen Moxin.

However, his own connections would go unnoticed.

Once the interview results come out after a while, and the hype has died down, it won't seem abrupt if I get selected again.

In an instant, Wu Xuan couldn't help but gasp.

OMG!

My father used to always remind me to think twice before I act.

As expected, the older the ginger, the spicier it is!

I almost misunderstood the examiner's good intentions!

I thought he was on the first floor, but he was actually on the second floor!

Thinking of this, Wu Xuan's depressed mood vanished, and he realized how wonderful the examiner's previous "um" and "oh" were!

As for Chen Moxin?

Haha, he's probably still basking in the praise, unaware that he's just a sitting duck pushed out to attract attention.

Still sitting there grinning like an idiot.

He's just a clown.

Wu Xuan took a deep breath, and a confident smile appeared on his face, a smile that suggested he had seen through everything.

You're on the second floor, while I've already reached the fifth floor!

...

The subsequent interviews proceeded as scheduled, with a total of 20 questions asked.

Guinan, overloaded with pig brains, gave a nonsensical answer, but no one cared anymore.

Wu Xuan maintained his usual rhythm, making occasional mistakes, but overall his performance, while not outstanding, was relatively stable.

Chen Moxin, on the other hand, spouted outrageous and irrelevant remarks, with all sorts of outrageous and unbearable answers.

After the final round of questions, the examiner tidied up the documents on the table and said to the three, "Alright, this interview is now over. Please wait patiently for the announcement of the specific results."

After saying that, he gave Chen Moxin a meaningful smile.

Guinan left dejectedly, probably realizing that he hadn't performed well this time and preparing to try again next year.

When Wu Xuan left, he had a confident smile on his face, as if he were a wise man who could see through everything.

As Chen Moxin stepped out of the interview room, she found Luo Lingyou waiting for her outside.

Luo Lingyou stood with his arms crossed, looking quite aggressive. He even pinched Chen Moxin's waist and said reproachfully, "If you're going to do an interview, just do it. Why are you dragging me into this?"

Chen Moxin innocently clutched her waist: "The examiner asked me a question, so I just answered whatever they asked. I was indeed most impressed by your looks."

Luo Miaoyou's lips curled up slightly involuntarily, but he still snorted coldly: "Still pretending? Are you trying to say that you're an honest person today and that you're telling the truth?"

Chen Moxin shrugged and said, "What a coincidence. I really didn't lie today. I didn't tell a single lie."

Luo Lingyou blinked, looking at him curiously: "So... you said that if someone falsely accused you, you would kill their whole family, is that true?"

Chen Moxin smiled brightly: "Seriously, if that kind of thing really happened, I'd go and wipe out her whole family tonight. I'm not very bright, so don't mess with me."

Luo Lingyou stared at Chen Moxin for a while, then suddenly laughed and poked his stomach with her finger, causing him to shrink back.

"What are you doing? Ouch..."

"What did I do to you? So what?"

"What could I do? I could only get angry in a fit of rage."

"Hahahaha, you're really funny when you talk."

At this moment, the chief examiner also came out. As soon as he saw Luo Lingyou and Chen Moxin playing around, a friendly smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Oh, Xiao Chen, so you know Xiao Luo?"

“We…” Chen Moxin pointed to Luo Lingyou, then to herself, trying to gesture with her hands.

But he suddenly realized that he didn't know how to describe his relationship with Luo Lingyou.

Colleagues?

It seems inappropriate to be so perfunctory.

friend?

It seems we haven't reached this level yet.

Seeing that Chen Moxin was choking, the examiner realized something and his expression immediately became respectful.

No wonder Chen Moxin was marked as "reversed"!

Those in power won't directly tell those below who they want to favor, as that would easily give others cause for criticism.

That's why the personnel department uses such an extremely subtle method of marking positive and reversed positions.

When the subordinates see the file, they don't need to know which leader's instructions it is; they just need to do what is marked.

When he saw Chen Moxin's name reversed, he was also guessing about this person's background.

Now I finally understand, his backer is Luo Lingyou!

This is among the very top tier of those with connections!

The lead interviewer noticed Chen Moxin's hesitation and immediately interrupted with a laugh, "I understand! I understand! No need to say it out loud, hahaha, I understand!"

Chen Mo thought to herself: Huh? I didn't even understand, but you do?

The three chatted for a while, and then the examiner took out his phone and said to Chen Moxin with a fawning smile, "How about we exchange contact information? If you have any questions about the procedures later on, you can always talk to me."

Looking at the enthusiastic examiners and recalling the interview process, Chen Moxin couldn't help but sigh.

During today's interview, he made a series of outrageous statements.

Those were indeed the truth.

But he wasn't just being genuine.

He was trying to cover for himself.

This time, I changed Wu Xuan's file marker and climbed to the top by stepping on this person with connections.

I was unlucky enough to be assigned to the same exam room as Wu Xuan.

If you receive too much attention during the interview, it may arouse Wu Xuan's suspicion.

If Wu Xuan goes back and tells his family, and his father then asks Cao Jiande, things might go wrong.

Therefore, Chen Moxin's idea was to deliberately create trouble, say some outrageous things, and guide the examiners to put her down.

That way, Wu Xuan would only see him as a moron and wouldn't suspect him.

As long as Wu Xuan is kept calm these days, once the final interview results are released and the situation is settled, it will be too late for him to realize something is wrong.

It's a pity the examiner seemed too straightforward.

No matter how incredible the answer was, as long as it was said by someone with connections, he would praise it without any pretense.

If you had just pretended even a little...

Sigh, I've been waiting for you all the way through the atmosphere, and you're still only on the first layer.

Chapter 38 People's joys and sorrows are not shared.

The management bureau was very efficient; the results came out three days after the interviews.

According to legal regulations, candidates who pass the interview will be included in the "List of Candidates for Proposed Employment" before being officially hired.

This list will be made public to publicly and transparently display the basic information of those who are to be promoted to permanent positions, and to accept public supervision. The process will generally last 5 to 7 working days.

This kind of public notice is nothing special; it happens every year, and most people don't pay much attention to it.

Chen Wenzhe didn't care about this at all, because in his opinion, Chen Moxin had no chance of being officially hired.

Chen Moxin had only been in the Administration Bureau for three months. He had no seniority and no connections. He had always been of upright character and would certainly not curry favor with his superiors.

Old Chen felt that his foolish son would only be treated like a beast of burden at work, doing all the dirty work and taking all the blame, day after day exhausting his original ambition and passion.

In the end, he was forced to return to inherit the family fortune.

However, that evening, while surfing the internet, Chen Wenzhe happened to come across the "List of Candidates for Regular Employment" from the Twin Cities Witch Administration Bureau, so he casually clicked on it to take a look.

Upon seeing this, his mind went blank.

The Administration plans to promote 12 non-staff personnel to permanent positions this year, and Chen Moxin's name is prominently listed among them.

"How...how could this happen?!"

Chen Wenzhe initially tried to reassure himself that it might be someone with the same name as his son, so he quickly clicked into the personal information page.

When Chen Wenzhe saw that sunny and cheerful smiling face in the portrait photo, he felt like the sky had fallen.

He quickly called Chen Moxin.

"Hey~ Old Chen, what's up?"

"How did you do that...?"

"How did you do that?"

"It's about your official promotion."

"Oh, that's probably because I'm hardworking, honest, and proactive at work, and my superiors appreciate me."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Chen Wenzhe shouted.

Then, his voice began to tremble: "Son, you...you weren't subjected to any unspoken rules or anything, were you?"

Chen Moxin chuckled: "I wish I could. For example, a beautiful female colleague who is 1.67 meters tall, from a wealthy family, with long white hair would come to me, smelling faintly of strawberries, and domineeringly say to me: 'Chen Moxin, if you let me have a one-time sexual harassment, I'll find someone to help you get a permanent position'... Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of luck."

"No, you..." Chen Wenzhe wanted to scold him, but what kind of time is this to be joking around?

But then I thought about it again, and sure enough, Chen Moxin has already been promoted, he's really got a lot of ideas.

Only you are anxious.

Chen Wenzhe sighed heavily: "Why don't you reconsider? There's so much money in the family. As long as you're willing to come back and inherit the family fortune, it's all yours. You can spend it however you want."

Chen Moxin said helplessly, "We've gone back and forth on this topic so many times already. Just leave my work alone, okay?"

"I have important things to do, so I'll have to go now. If you really have nothing better to do, go out and pick up girls and try to find me a stepmother soon. That's all, bye."

The call ended, leaving only the dial tone on the receiver.

Chen Wenzhe leaned back on the sofa and opened the "List of Candidates for Regular Employment" again, repeatedly flipping through Chen Moxin's personal page.

Actually, there's another way to stop Chen Moxin.

I reported him!

The public announcement period is meant to be subject to public scrutiny and to conduct a public assessment of the conduct of those nominated for official positions.

If a report is filed during the public notice period and the report is substantiated, the consequences will be severe.
