Hello, Mr Li Chapter 14
Advertisement
Unlike the expensive official car Ms Long normally drived, today she had used a rather ordinary looking car.
"Wang Sara?" She asked as soon as she got to where they were standing.
"Yes..." Sara nodded. "And this is my father" she said gesturing at Jianjun. She was quite impressed by their timeliness so she had a good impression of Ms Long.
Ms Long was always professional. She nodded slightly, acknowledging him and introduced herself
"Pleased to meet you Mr Wang. Pleased to meet you Miss Wang'. She greeted politely then continued
"I am Chou Long. You can call me Miss Long"
They both nodded to her greeting. Jianjun and Sara felt she seemed like a nice person and finally relaxed.
Ms Long was relieved Sara hadn't recognized her since she was also in the hotel and had secretly followed her to the bar.
"Shall we?" Ms Long asked as she gestured towards the car.
"Sure!" Sara bade her father farewell and followed Miss Long along.
***
Sara was not so comfortable sitting at the back of the car. There was a young man behind the wheel while Ms Long was sitting in the front passenger's seat so it felt awkward sitting behind like she was the boss.
She became completely uncomfortable when the car stopped the front of a big company. It was one that never crossed her mind at all.
Was this not the Li corporation?
Of course, everyone knew who this building belonged to. Even a year old was aware of that also. She was suddenly feeling a little jittery.
She had neglected her looks and wasn't even wearing a proper make-up, just a little face powder and nude lipstick. What do she do?
The first thing that came to her mind, was that she had failed this interview already! She would probably be the most underdressed.

Things got worse when she saw the curious gazes of the employees directed at her.
Ms Long who was leading Sara inside, noticed something was wrong with her. She stopped on her tracks and asked politely
"Is something wrong Miss Wang?"
Sara also stopped and looked at her. She didn't know whether she should ask her or not. Then finally decided to.
"Ms Long... Do.. Do you think I am underdressed and might probably fail this interview? I really would have done better with my looks if I knew I was coming here" She said sadly.
Truth be told, that was the best look she could come up with. And that was the only formal clothes she had also. Her former jobs had not required her to dress formally.
But if she was able to qualify for the interview, she was ready to put in extra effort to have this job and support her family.
Ms Long almost laughed when she heard her. Sara looked like a sad puppy. If she had not witnessed Sara's actions before, she probably would have thought Sara was a white lotus flower.
She became quite fond of Sara because she couldn't tell which was Sara's real personality or whether she had a multiple personality disorder. It was a mystery she wanted to unravel.
She was even surprised to see Sara looking this 'formal' asking for more would be cruel of her.
She had the urge to tell her that even if she had come for this interview in her normal everyday clothing, she would still have been accepted because the job was hers to begin with.
"You look perfect!" She complimented with a pleasant smile.
Ms Long had been stiff and expressionless the entire time. Seeing her smile while complimenting her, made her less nervous.

"Thank you" Sara responded with a charming smile and followed Miss long confidently.
---
Sara was surprised the interview only lasted for a short while. She had prepared herself for a tough question and answer session but the three interviewers did not really pry much. And gave her a "You Pass" at the end.
"Ms Long, I do not see other candidates for this interview" Sara said as she was being led to the CEO's office by Ms Long.
Without turning back, Ms Long spoke eloquently.
"You were only two selected to come for this interview, the other person had his interview yesterday but unfortunately or fortunately, he failed. I also know you must be thinking why we chose you when you do not have any prior experience or even graduated from a prestigious university.. The answer is simple! those folks are difficult to work with and CEO Li does not like that. So feel free and be comfortable. You are really lucky."
Coming up with 'emergency excuses' was nothing new or difficult for Ms Long. She was used to things like this and was always prepared for it. She had even expected the questions from Sara because anyone smart enough would find the entire situation fishy.
Sara felt slightly better when she heard Ms Long speak. She had wanted to ask those questions but didn't think it was right to. But thankfully, Ms Long saw through her and gave her a satisfactory explanation. She was beginning to like this woman the more.
Ms Long informed Li Muchen about Sara's arrival and was asked to bring her in.
When Sara got in, Muchen still didn't raise his head from his desk. He was busy with his computer and ignored the both of them.
So she just stood there while Ms Long excused herself.
'So this was the CEO Li?' She thought to herself. She had never been interested in listening to Li Minde's family tree from Weiyoung beacause she was never interested in the business sector, So whenever she heard about the Li corporation, she always imagined the CEO, Li Minde's cousin, to be a middle aged man. Who would have thought he was this young?
Although she could not see his face, anyone could tell he was very handsome.
Muchen finally raised his head and looked at her.

Memoirs of A Healer/Clinical Social Worker: Autobiography of Bruce Whealton
A loving spouse. A healer. How does this person cope with evil villains willing to destroy everything? They convicted the victim... now how does the victim goes on with life as a healer?As the book opens, I was in a psychiatric hospital following a suicide attempt in December 2019. What starts as a simple conversation with another patient changed my life. Most of the rest of the book tells the reader how I got to this point. I experienced profound injustice between 2004 and 2006. By opening with a story about suicide, I want the reader to understand that the injustice was not just something that happened long ago.This book is an account of all the accomplishments and successes that I had in overcoming tremendous odds and challenges. Growing up, I was paralyzed by shyness and lacked social skills, and so the idea of becoming a psychotherapist never occurred to me when I went off to college. I learned that I could overcome those limitations. I wanted to bring that hope and healing to others. Activities like that make life meaningful and bring me joy. The reasons why I was suicidal in 2019 were set in motion in 2000 when a meteor would come crashing down upon the life that I had built leaving me powerless to do anything other than watching everything burn to ashes - the home that I had, the life I had known, the love I had, my career, everything would disappear almost as if it never existed. In that one the year 2000, I could not imagine things could get any worse. But the nightmare would continue for the next few years... culminating in a suicide attempt in 2019. Now, I am connecting with others, building relationships, and finding a reason to live again. I am writing my own story of my life. I will fight against the injustice of the past and offer my gifts to the world. I have so much to offer. I have quite a story to tell. I hope you will help me to move on with my life.
