The next morning, just past seven o'clock, Chen Shu woke up at an unprecedented hour.
"Is today my first step into the professional world?"
Chen Shu muttered to himself, then performed a perfect forward roll out of bed...
"Ah~~~~~~~"
He stretched languidly, feeling his entire body loosen up.
Half an hour later,
"He really is quite amiable!"
Chen Shu flashed a smile, looking at his reflection and saying to himself,
"To think someone would mistake me for an international criminal, truly..."
"Spot on!"
A voice came from the balcony as Liu Feng calmly walked in.
"Teacher Liu, is the balcony your respawn point?"
Chen Shu's lips twitched. "Aren't you sleeping in this early morning?"
"As long as you're at the academy, I can't sleep soundly!"
Liu Feng sat down on the sofa and directly picked up the braised pork hock from the dining table.
"You're eating something so greasy first thing in the morning?"
"I'm growing, is it not normal to eat a lot?"
Chen Shu pouted and quickly grabbed the remaining braised pork hock.
"Teacher, how do I look in this outfit?"
His tall stature, combined with the suit, made him look distinguished and exceptionally outstanding!
"Not bad..."
Liu Feng gnawed on the braised pork hock and said, "If it were a stranger, you could really trick them!"
"What do you mean trick?"
Chen Shu's lips twitched. "I am being true to myself!"
"Really?"
Liu Feng raised an eyebrow and lunged forward.
He pulled up Chen Shu's jacket, revealing the straitjacket underneath the white shirt...
"You call that being true to yourself?"
Liu Feng's forehead was covered in black lines. Although he had expected something like this, he still found it a bit outrageous.
"It's already May, aren't you hot?"
A straitjacket plus a suit, wasn't that purely madness?
"I'm not hot!"
Chen Shu grinned and said, "I'd be hot if I *wasn't* wearing the straitjacket!"
He tidied his clothes, looking at Liu Feng with a hint of disdain.
Do you even understand the value of the straitjacket 3.0!
"I feel like I've reached the pinnacle of life!"
Chen Shu's eyes held a confident smile, truly full of promise for the future.
Liu Feng nodded and said, "If you want to succeed in your interview today, you just need to do three things!"
"What?"
"First, hide the nuclear bomb! Second, hide the nuclear bomb!"
Liu Feng's expression was serious. "Third, hide the damned nuclear bomb!"
"..."
Chen Shu's mouth hung open slightly, then he said,
"Teacher, don't worry, I promise to behave myself today!"
"Let's go!"
The teacher and student, each gnawing on a braised pork hock, headed towards the academy's gate.
Along the way, passersby deliberately avoided them, lest they draw the attention of the pair.
With their combined presence, no one dared to approach them, except for those on par with the principal.
Half an hour later,
"Teacher, you don't need to see me off!"
Chen Shu said, wanting to go alone, otherwise he felt constantly monitored.
He wasn't a criminal, so why was going out treated like a prison break?
Liu Feng shook his head, not entirely at ease. "What if you cause trouble again?"
"I'm going for an interview, not acting like a fierce bandit. Nothing will happen!"
Chen Shu sighed helplessly and said, "When did people stop trusting each other?"
"Every time you use a nuclear bomb!"
"..."
Chen Shu's eyes darted. "Teacher, I'm in the capital, and when the interviewer sees you, they'll think I have no independence, which will leave a bad impression!"
"That does seem to make some sense..."
Liu Feng rubbed his chin. It happened that he had a class today and didn't have much free time.
He sized Chen Shu up, then said seriously,
"First, promise me, no causing trouble today!"
"I swear on my life!"
Chen Shu raised the four fingers of his right hand and said with utmost seriousness,
"No matter what happens today, I will not act impulsively and will adhere to the principle of amicable conduct!"
"That's more like it..."
Liu Feng nodded and said, "Go ahead and drive yourself."
"Alright!"
Chen Shu skipped away from the school and headed straight for Omni Group's location.
"Just going out of school for a day, will there be any problems?"
Liu Feng rubbed his chin and turned back into the school.
...
"The taste of freedom!! Woohoo~~~"
Chen Shu's expression was excited, feeling as if he had been released from prison, his heart brimming with joy.
Passersby cast strange glances his way.
Moreover, it was a license plate from the Hua Xia Academy, leading people to instinctively believe that the immense academic pressure at the top academy had caused the student to lose his mind...
To fully enjoy himself, Chen Shu drove around, covering almost half of the capital.
As for work, that was naturally put aside for the moment...
At noon, he even made a special trip to the awesome noodle shop for a bowl of beef noodles.
It wasn't until around three in the afternoon
that Chen Shu arrived at his destination.
"Is this Omni Group?"
Chen Shu parked his car and gazed at an industrial park in the distance.
The most conspicuous feature was an eighteen-story office building.
Adjacent to the office building were dozens of medium-sized factories, mainly responsible for processing various beast-taming materials.
Due to its massive scale, Omni Group had to choose a location in a cheaper suburban area.
However, it was still within the capital, so the prices were definitely not cheap, which showcased the group's strength.
"Mr. Chen Shu!"
Almost as soon as Chen Shu parked his car, someone appeared from nowhere, their expression one of extreme reverence.
"Hmm?"
Chen Shu seemed to pause for a moment, but his expression quickly returned to normal.
The young man also gave a slight start and asked, "Do you know me?"
"You look exactly like my... seventh uncle's nephew's second uncle's brother-in-law's son's online dating partner!"
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow and said with a completely serious expression.
"???"
The young man's mouth twitched, completely bewildered.
Was that a relationship a human could logically deduce?
He let out an awkward laugh and said, "I am Gan Yu, an employee of Omni Group, sent specifically to pick you up for your interview!"
"That's so thoughtful?"
Chen Shu grinned and said, "How many people are interviewing today?"
"Only you!"
The young man said, "And with your reputation, you can easily pass."
"I hope you're right!"
The two walked towards Omni Group in the distance.
As they got closer, Chen Shu paused again, then quickly recovered.
Gan Yu, however, noticed nothing and escorted Chen Shu to the reception room inside the office building.
"Mr. Chen, please wait a moment, the interviewer will be here shortly!"
Gan Yu poured Chen Shu a pot of tea and was about to close the door and leave.
"Wait!"
Chen Shu suddenly called out to him, crossing his legs.
"I'm just too sought after, other companies are fighting to recruit me, so I can only wait for you guys for one minute!"
"..."
Gan Yu's mouth twitched. You really dare to make things up!
With your resume, besides Omni Group, does anyone else dare to take you?!
