Awaken: I See Tags, I Rewrite My Life-Chapter 27: Why?

So, this is what an interview is?

Tian Xiang was a bit confused, "Director Li, don’t we need to check the education and identity documents?"

Li Huai patted his forehead, "Ah, right, Little Tian, since you came last, I just forgot about it in a rush. I’ve already checked theirs, bring out yours for me to verify."

Tian Xiang handed it over with both hands.

Li Huai first verified the identity information to see if it matched what’s on the introduction letter.

Beside them, Tao Huilan and Chen Yong were about to leave.

Tao Huilan was carrying her bag and moved swiftly, as if she had something urgent to attend to.

Chen Yong glanced at Tian Xiang, but didn’t rush to leave after stepping out; instead, he waited for her under the bulletin board outside.

Tian Xiang’s documents were quickly verified.

Li Huai returned them to her and, seeing there was no one else in the office, smiled and said, "Do your best."

Being able to speak to her alone was a form of affirmation and expectation.

Tian Xiang nodded, "Director, I will."

Tian Xiang went outside, and Chen Yong, who was waiting, came up to her.

"Hello, Miss Tian. Starting tomorrow, we’ll be colleagues. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Chen Yong, I live in the Second Residential Area, unit 109. I’m enthusiastic, righteous, and cultured. I participated in the Workers’ Music Band in high school and won a city second prize representing our Mechanical Factory."

Chen Yong was talking non-stop.

Tian Xiang didn’t want to pay him any attention, quickening her pace, but who would have thought this guy would follow her doggedly, basically glued to her.

Tian Xiang stopped, turned her head, and said, "Chen Yong, do you have a leaky mouth? So much to say? Let me tell you..."

Tian Xiang originally intended to tell him directly that she wasn’t interested in loafers and flirts who judge others by their appearance.

However, before she could finish, the label on Chen Yong’s forehead changed from loafer (flirt) to minor villain 9 (flirt).

This...

Previously, the background character had changed from a supporting role to a villain, and now the same thing happened to Chen Yong.

Tian Xiang was stunned and finally understood what was going on.

Currently, the label on her forehead hasn’t been removed, as she’s the heroine of this world!

Whenever a man is around her or they’re closely interacting, it hinders the romantic development between the male and female leads, causing trouble for both!

Isn’t that just being the antagonist?

Well, from now on, she wouldn’t be able to interact with men.

Tian Xiang was rather upset.

Why!

The way she saw it, she didn’t have to worry about it; she’d take things as they come.

But although it didn’t matter to her, these labels would affect others.

For example, bad luck, public embarrassment, getting slapped in the face by the main leads.

Seeing Chen Yong about to speak, Tian Xiang immediately interrupted him, "Shut up! I advise you to stay away from me, hanging around with me, be careful, you’ll end up with bad luck."

Chen Yong opened his mouth wide, "Huh?"

"Come on, comrade, do you actually believe in this kind of stuff?" Chen Yong said with a silly grin, "From tomorrow, we’ll be colleagues, working together no matter how far apart."

Indeed, that was a problem.

Tian Xiang: "Let’s just talk about work, don’t think about anything else. I’ve told you before, we are not the same kind of people. Today’s the second warning. Since you don’t take it seriously, there’s nothing more I can do, suit yourself."

She had said what needed to be said, if he wouldn’t listen, what did it have to do with her?

Tian Xiang continued forward.

Chen Yong still followed her like an attached shadow.

"Miss Tian, we’ll be working together, and you won’t even tell me your name? Is it really that heartless? Hey, what about this bad luck, I, Chen Yong..."

Chen Yong was about to boast of himself, claiming such things wouldn’t faze him.

However, before he finished his sentence, his foot seemed to catch something, and he stumbled forward.

Tian Xiang had been wary of him, so when he lunged, she quickly sidestepped.

By coincidence, they were near the factory gate, where Chen Yong’s nose made intimate contact with the iron gate, blood streaming out.

Tian Xiang: "..."

Chen Yong was dazed too, clearly not understanding how he ended up hitting the gate.

He opened his mouth to speak, but the blood flowed into his mouth. He wiped it away with his hand, saw the bright red stain, and promptly passed out.

Tian Xiang: "..."

Surprised, she took two steps back.

What happened to him? Was it a serious injury or hemophobia!

In the security booth, the guards panicked, called for two more helpers through the internal line, and quickly carried Chen Yong away to the staff hospital.

Tian Xiang watched all this in silence, then shook her head and said, "I warned you, didn’t I? You didn’t believe it."

Tian Xiang fetched her bike to leave, glancing back to see the background character coming, watching her from a distance.

Tian Xiang smiled and proactively approached him.

"Mr. Meng, are you going out? On official business?"

Meng Cheng’an nodded, got off his bike, glanced at Tian Xiang and the nearby factory gate, feeling a surge of anticipation, "You?"

Tian Xiang explained, "I came for an interview."

"Interview?"

Tian Xiang: "For the Factory Union Clerical Workgroup, I’ve got the recommendation letter."

"Oh."

So it was for official business, not to find him. Meng Cheng’an felt a slight disappointment.

He asked, "Did it go smoothly?"

Tian Xiang: "Just so-so, I’ll start probation tomorrow."

"Probation?"

Tian Xiang shrugged, "Overstaffed."

Meng Cheng’an frowned slightly, knowing well about the factory’s recruitment situation.

His handsome face glowed under the sun as he encouraged her, "You, can handle it."

She was smart and clear-headed.

Tian Xiang nodded, "I will work hard."

Meng Cheng’an responded with a "hmm," meeting her smile, "I’m also in the factory union, in the publicity department."

Tian Xiang: "I know, we’ll be colleagues from now on."

Meng Cheng’an nodded, "Are you heading back?"

"Hmm."

"Okay."

Meng Cheng’an turned around and was about to head inside.

Tian Xiang: "Hey, by the way."

Just having turned his back, Meng Cheng’an’s lips curled up, and his grip on the bike handle unconsciously tightened.

But he quickly suppressed the emotion.

He turned back nonchalantly, "Hmm?"

Tian Xiang: "I don’t even know your name yet? I only know your surname is Meng, what’s your full name?"

Always calling him Mr. Meng or background character feels odd.

If they’re in the same factory and she wants to find him, she needs to know his name.

"My name is Meng Cheng’an."

"Meng Cheng’an." Tian Xiang blinked, it sounded so cultured, the person who chose this name must have read many books.

Tian Xiang smiled, "Good name."

Meng Cheng’an wore a neutral expression, "I’m heading in."

Turns out, she had already forgotten about the meal invitation.

Meng Cheng’an quickly pushed his bike into the factory zone.

Tian Xiang watched him go, letting out a light sigh.

She hadn’t forgotten the meal plan, almost mentioned it earlier.

Now that she was starting work, she wanted to enjoy a meal with friends to celebrate.

But just having witnessed Chen Yong hit the iron gate and being sent to the staff hospital, she hesitated.

Being so close, it wouldn’t bring him bad luck, would it!

Sigh, forget it, better say it when the labels are removed.

"Meng Cheng’an, Meng Cheng’an, such a nice-sounding name..."
