Chapter 215 Old Master Gu has an illegitimate daughter
"No, no, they said I only need to wait a week to start work, and even if I can't find a job, they'll refund the money."
Wang Ma firmly believed that the other party would not lie to her. After waiting for several days without any news, she decided to go and check again.
Zhang Xinru has been busy lately, searching for jobs online whenever she has free time. However, the results have been unsatisfactory, and compared to her current job, she is inevitably quite disappointed.
"It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality! Once you get used to high wages, who would still look down on low wages!"
Seeing Wang Ma return, he quickly sat up in bed. "How is it, Wang Ma? Is the place deserted? Has the other party run off with the money? Your money is gone!"
Wang Ma shook her head with a worried look on her face. She sat on the bed before saying, "No, the company is still there, and the people are still here."
Now it was Zhang Xinru's turn to be surprised. "Oh? So you've found a job?"
Finding a job and still not happy? This place is like Versailles for me!
Wang Ma explained, "No, they said the job I'm looking for isn't currently hiring..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted, "If you don't need people, why are you still posting online? Why didn't you make that clear when we paid? Why didn't you tell me when you came back? So you didn't ask any questions and just paid the money."
Zhang Xinru became increasingly certain that this was a scam. Who would be recruiting online if they didn't need more people? Were they selecting prospective employees?
Aunt Wang quickly reassured her, "Let me finish what I have to say first."
"Last time you said that the couple who looked after the villa would not resign for a week. I thought it was only a week, and I could wait that long, so I didn't tell you."
"Who knew that when I asked again this time, they said I would have to wait half a month and that they would transfer me to a housekeeping company to deal with me. Isn't this just passing the buck? I wasn't comfortable with it, so I asked for my money back."
Hearing that there was no loss, Zhang Xinru couldn't help but feel somewhat relieved.
"If I didn't find a job, so be it. At least I got my money back smoothly. In the future, I'll be more careful about any job that requires me to pay money."
Wang Ma felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look over. "Well... we only got back a little over two thousand yuan. They won't refund the rest, saying they used some of it to help me find a job."
Zhang Xinru: "..."
This is a classic case of being scammed while still helping the scammers count their money; they won't even know when they'll be sold out.
"I guess we'll only get back a little over two thousand yuan. Forget it, we probably won't get the rest back even if we call the police. We'll just have to accept our bad luck and consider it a lesson learned."
Wang Ma was too embarrassed to say that it was actually more than two thousand and ten cents.
"That's what I think too. Anyway, the money I was scammed out of was your dowry, so it doesn't seem like I lost out much."
Zhang Xinru was speechless. "Is this about the bride price? Can't you be a little more considerate?"
Then he sighed, "Forget it, let's just go back to work and wait until Fu Xiaochen goes bankrupt."
"Even if things don't go well, we still have a villa and a luxury car. We can sell them and buy a cheaper house that's enough for the three of us. It's just a pity that we have to throw away all the little things we bought when we were kids."
She hasn't even taken her driver's test yet, and this expensive luxury car is going to be sold almost immediately after not even being driven for a day! Waaah!
When Wang Ma mentioned these trinkets, she looked disgusted. "What's there to regret? It's a good thing the house is big enough to hold them all. We'll throw them all away when we move. He just buys useless things all the time. They're not worth anything. Who are we showing them off to?"
The two never imagined that the things they bought when they were young would be worth so much.
Meanwhile, while busy at the company, Xiao Shi sneezed twice in a row.
"My right eye has been twitching non-stop lately, and I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen."
A sharp knock on the door broke the silence in the office.
Xiao Shi pinched the bridge of her nose wearily. "Come in."
The subordinate pushed open the door and entered, "Mr. Gu, the Fu Group has recently encountered some financial problems..."
When Xiao Shi listened to his subordinate's report, he showed no joy on his face, but rather an unusually cold expression.
In fact, his informants at the villa had already informed him of this news.
A barely perceptible hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. "It's unexpected that problems arose so quickly. It feels like it was all too easy."
"By the way, has that woman come to the company in the last few days?"
The subordinate immediately thought of Mrs. Fu, "No, but she left a message before she left last time."
"What?"
She said, "I wonder if Mr. Gu knows that Mr. Gu has an illegitimate daughter named Gu Xiaoxiao."
Xiao Shi was shocked when he heard this. How could his birth mother be an illegitimate child? Wasn't she accidentally lost by the servants? What else was his grandfather hiding?
"What? Are you sure you didn't hear wrong? She really said that?"
Subordinate: "Yes, that's exactly what Mrs. Fu said."
After a moment of contemplation, what else did Mrs. Fu know?
"Tell the security guards that next time Mrs. Fu comes, they don't need to stop her; they can just bring her to see me directly."
Subordinate: "Yes."
Xiao Shi remembered there was something important she hadn't done yet, and instructed, "Oh right, go and do something for me now..."
……
Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma decided to stop looking for new jobs and instead set their sights on Xiao Xiaojia.
"I remember when Xiao Xiao Jia was born, she was only the size of a palm. It hasn't been long since she was born, and she's already a medium-sized baby. I think it won't be long before she turns into a pig!"
Wang Ma has been taking care of Xiao Xiao Jia recently, so she knows Xiao Xiao Jia's food intake. "We're almost out of cat food, why don't we stock up on some more? Remember to use the young master's card."
Zhang Xinru also wanted to know if the card was still valid; she decided to try it to find out.
"it is good."
During their break, the two went out and bought a lot of cat supplies. Fu Xiaochen wasn't bankrupt yet, so they figured they might as well spend the money in his black card.
Fu Xiaochen received the purchase notification as expected. While wondering what Ye Jiajia bought, he remembered something he had previously overlooked.
He didn't receive any gold jewelry on his birthday, so who did Jiajia buy it for?
Thinking of this, Fu Xiaochen couldn't sit still any longer. After finishing his work at the company, he quickly returned to the villa.
When Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma returned, they found everyone gathered in the hall, and the atmosphere was unusually heavy.
Fu Xiaochen sat alone on the sofa, emanating a chill from his body, and the entire hall was silent.
Seeing the scene before them, the two felt a sense of déjà vu. Had Ye Jiajia gone out to meet a male friend again?
Soon, the housekeeper's appearance answered their questions.
"Young Master, everything is here."
Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma exchanged a glance, "?"
The housekeeper must be referring to Miss Jiajia, right?
Fu Xiaochen took the photos expressionlessly and flipped through them one by one. From the photos, it was clear that Ye Jiajia was working.
When did she go out to look for work?
Butler: "It's been several days."
Fu Xiaochen laughed in anger. He never expected Jiajia to go out to work behind his back and get so close to other men. Did she think he was dead?
"Are you in such a hurry to find another job because you think I'm already bankrupt?"
When the two heard Fu Xiaochen's conversation with the housekeeper, they thought he was talking about them, and a guilty look flashed across their faces.
Oh no, their job-hunting scheme got caught. Will I have to fire them?
