Being driven away twice in one day, even Cheng Qingzhou with his tough heart couldn't help but question the heavens and the earth about what wrongs he had done.
He walked forward in the wind and snow, his ears turning bright red from the cold. He had to cover his ears with both hands. Ever since he was little, his ears were prone to frostbite. If he wasn't careful, his ears would become red and swollen. The worst part was the unbearable itchiness, itching all over his body, making him want to stick a needle into them.
Cheng Qingzhou took out his phone, wanting to search for any cheap hotels or inns nearby, preferably a place like a youth hostel. Right now, he didn't care about the environment at all; the cheaper, the better. His hands were trembling from the cold as he tapped and swiped on the phone screen. Sometimes, the screen didn't respond because the temperature was too low, and he had to tap it harder. He didn't realize that his current posture, squatting by the roadside, poking at his phone, made him look exactly like a beggar, either the kind that was lazy and unlikeable or the kind that was good-for-nothing.
"Damn man! So what if he's rich, so what if he's handsome! Just wait and see how I'll get back at you!" While muttering curses under his breath, Cheng Qingzhou searched for a hotel. After a painstaking search, he finally found a small hotel one kilometer away, where he could spend the night for only forty bucks. He quickly made the reservation, feeling a surge of motivation. With a burst of energy, he leaped up like a rabbit and briskly walked forward.
When he arrived at the hotel and was in the process of checking in, the young girl at the front desk, who had her hair braided with seven colorful ropes and a nose stud, looked at him expressionlessly. After verifying his ID, she handed him a room card and said, "Just a reminder, all items in the room that have been opened will incur additional charges."
Only one reminder, as if it could be seen that Cheng Qingzhou had nothing valuable, and a capital "poor" was written on his face.
Cheng Qingzhou cursed silently in his heart and irritably went upstairs to search for his room. As the saying goes, the level of service matches the level of expense. The only consoling aspect of the forty yuan per night hotel was that it was relatively clean and had air conditioning. However, Cheng Qingzhou was well aware that now was not the time for him to be choosy. He immediately took a hot shower upon entering the room, washing away the coldness and emerging with a refreshed and rosy complexion. Sitting on the bed, he picked up his phone and began searching for jobs online.
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel immensely grateful for this technologically advanced era. Gone were the days when he had to roam the streets, searching for job advertisements like the people of the past.
With a heart full of gratitude, he logged into various major job recruitment platforms. An hour later, he angrily deleted all those job search apps, put on his clothes and shoes, and prepared to leave the house.
- Among the ten recruitment advertisements, three are actually advertisements, three specify that they don't want applicants who aren't college graduates, and four, upon calling to inquire about the situation, are clearly revealed as marketing agencies engaged in fraud.
Cheng Qingzhou braved the wind and snow once again to venture outside. However, this time was different from before. In the past, he didn't know where to go and felt lost in his heart. But now, he no longer worried about not having a place to sleep at night. He only needed to find a job that would make money and he would be able to sustain himself.
Only now did he have the mood to reminisce about the scene where his father kicked him out of the house.
"Makes it seem like I can't even support myself. What's so special about it?" Cheng Qingzhou muttered to himself. With his hands in his pockets, he headed towards the nearby dining district.
He himself also understood that as a young person who had just graduated from high school, there was no need for him to expect to work in an office building. He should simply find a job as a waiter or something similar, and deal with the urgent situation at hand first.
He hadn't even reached the concentrated area of restaurants, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a recruitment advertisement posted on the wall to his left. The reason he noticed it was because the words "recruitment" on it were just too conspicuous. For him at the moment, it was simply a life-saving elixir.
Upon closer examination of the job requirements: Male, 18-22 years old, handsome in appearance, once employed, the pay is generous.
Why does this job requirement look odd?
What job would require a good-looking appearance?
"Duck shop?"
