"Our company's interview process is very strict. Only the interviewee is allowed to go up; no one else is permitted," the beautiful receptionist explained again.
"Is that so!"
Long Lingling felt a bit disappointed. Without Li Yang by her side, she would surely be nervous once she went up.
However, since it was the company's policy, she couldn't say much.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to abide by the company's rules. She turned to Li Yang and said, "Li Yang, why don't you wait for me downstairs for a while? I'll be back soon."
"Alright, you should try your best. Just treat it as a casual chat. I believe in you," Li Yang encouraged her.
"Mhm, I will!"
Hearing Li Yang's words, Long Lingling instantly felt much more confident. She waved goodbye to Li Yang and went upstairs alone.
After she left, Li Yang found a resting area on his own, sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and waited patiently.
The receptionist didn't forget to glance at Li Yang a few more times. She returned behind the counter and started giggling with her colleagues, as if mocking Li Yang.
Li Yang's attire today was very ordinary. He lacked the demeanor of a top-tier wealthy businessman, appearing at most like a minor second-generation heir.
Every employee working here had boyfriends who were quite wealthy. Even the receptionists' boyfriends were well-known second-generation heirs from the provincial capital, and some were kept as mistresses by wealthy businessmen.
They had seen too many people of status, so Li Yang's ordinary appearance as a minor second-generation heir didn't catch their eye at all.
They even thought that if Miss Long could really get this job, she would have many suitors, and Li Yang would be ruthlessly abandoned.
Li Yang sat to the side, having actually heard their conversation, but he didn't pay much attention to it. At his level, he wouldn't bother getting angry with a few ill-mannered young women.
He just sat there, eating the fruit and sunflower seeds placed in front of him, looking relaxed and at ease.
"Look, that guy is really showing off. He looks like a good-for-nothing, jobless loser."
One of the receptionists couldn't help but sneer when she saw Li Yang's demeanor.
As soon as she finished speaking, a pink Maserati suddenly stopped at the entrance. As the car door opened, a young woman emerged. She was dressed very fashionably, had a slender figure, and looked as beautiful as a celestial being, with a distinctive presence.
She was the lead actress of the stage play company, Li Feifei!
As she entered, all the female receptionists stood up straight and greeted her with smiles.
She was the company's top star, and the company's biggest business was currently handled by her. With her, the company's annual revenue was well-secured.
Li Yang, sitting on the lounge chair, also noticed Li Feifei's face. However, while he was stunned by her stunning beauty and figure, he also noticed a dark aura on her face.
She walked past Li Yang, essentially ignoring his presence, not even glancing at him directly.
But then, Li Yang suddenly shook his head and deliberately raised his voice to remind her, "Miss, you have a malevolent star on your forehead. This is a sign of impending disaster."
"If you don't get rid of this malevolent star quickly, I'm afraid you'll soon face a bloody disaster."
"How dare you! Who do you think you are, cursing our Sister Fei like this?"
At this moment, a receptionist, worried that Li Yang might anger Li Feifei and cause trouble for the receptionists, quickly stood up and rushed in front of Li Yang to scold him.
Li Yang was dismissive and sneered, "Do I need to explain myself to you? You ask who I am, and I want to ask you, whose mistress are you?"
He had overheard the receptionist's conversation earlier and knew she was someone's mistress.
"You..."
The receptionist's anger surged, and she was about to slap him.
However, Li Yang easily dodged, causing her to miss. He then extended his foot, and she lost her balance, falling to the ground with a thud, blood flowing from her mouth.
"My tooth! You scoundrel, how dare you hit me?" The receptionist stood up in extreme anger, glaring at Li Yang and roaring.
Li Yang said dismissively, "You clearly fell by accident. When did I hit you? So many people are watching. Don't falsely accuse me."
"You..."
"Alright, stop arguing here. Look at yourselves, fighting in public. What kind of behavior is this?" Li Feifei interrupted the receptionist and reprimanded her sternly.
The receptionist immediately got up from the ground, apologized to Li Feifei, and stepped aside.
Following that, Li Feifei looked at Li Yang expressionlessly, sized him up, and asked, "Who are you? Are you also an employee of our company?"
"You've misunderstood. I'm not with your company; I'm just accompanying my friend for an interview."
Li Yang introduced himself and then said, "I happened to see you, noticed you have a strong malevolent aura, so I specifically wanted to remind you."
"Playing tricks!"
Li Feifei didn't believe Li Yang's words. She ignored him and said coldly, "If you continue to cause trouble in our company, get out."
"Hey, miss, I'm just kindly reminding you. There's no need to get angry, is there? Moreover, your disaster will arrive in less than ten minutes. At that time..."
"Get him out of here!"
Li Yang was about to continue his reminder, but Li Feifei had already become angry. She turned to the company's security guards and ordered them to escort Li Yang out.
A short while later, Li Yang was being dragged out of the company by several security guards. Outside, the sun was blazing, and there wasn't even a shaded spot.
Helpless, he had to go to the small fountain tree not far away to wait for Long Lingling.
Water was constantly spraying here, and the surroundings were cool, making it more comfortable than the lobby.
Li Yang observed these streams of water, which seemed to be present yet not quite there.
After a moment, the corner of his mouth curled slightly. He plucked a few leaves from the tree, placed them gently on the ground, then drew a talisman with spiritual light between his fingers. He picked it up and casually flicked it, sending it flying onto the ground at the entrance of the building.
No one noticed this detail. After finishing, Li Yang squatted on the ground, patiently waiting for Long Lingling to appear.
About ten minutes later, Long Lingling finally came out of the company. As soon as Li Yang saw her, he immediately ran over and asked with a smile, "Lingling, how was the interview? Did everything go smoothly? Did the interviewer give you a hard time?"
"Why did you come outside?"
Long Lingling was more concerned about Li Yang. Seeing the sweat droplets on his forehead, she took out a tissue and began to wipe them for him.
