Chapter 17 – Life Wasn’t That Bad After All (1)

Even though she wouldn’t need to pay rent in the next few months, and they would be set for a while with the original owner’s saving plus the wages she would be receiving in half a month, Yan Shuyu still understood the importance of having a stable stream of income.

Specifically, she has a 4~5 year-old little fart with her. Kids were the weakest; any small illnesses could wipe out all their savings. Yan Shuyu was feeling a lot of pressure and dare not be too relaxed. She rested for a few minutes at home before she turned on her computer and started sending out resumes.

As a senior in college, albeit the fact that she had chosen to continue onto higher education, she still possessed the skills to put together a resume. Plus, it was quite straight-forward, the original owner didn’t have a lot to put on a resume. It only took her a few minutes to finish it up.

After she was done with the resume, Yan Shuyu noticed that the original owner’s academic level was not remotely competitive. She skimmed through the wanted ads. Even though sales jobs required no specific skills, those positions still required a technical degree. Servers at a restaurant was better, high school diploma would be sufficient. Yet, Yan Shuyu had been a spoiled child her entire life, she’d rather starve to death than to be a waitress.

In order to add more “value”, Yan Shuyu decided to add her picture on the resumes. Granted, that could potentially backfire and draw the attention of creepy men, but it would also increase her chance of getting a better job. After all, this world valued good looks. She has to give it a shot.

After she was done with all those, the entire morning has passed. Yan Shuyu had sent resumes to all the companies that she was interested in. Now there was no more she could do other than waiting for responses. She rubbed her starving belly, stood up, and turned off her computer. The kindergarten would provide lunch for her instant son and she didn’t need to worry about that. Happily, she went downstairs to eat in the commercial street.

She felt a lot happily after she ate. Happiness could really be that simple sometimes.

Yan Shuyu went back to her apartment and took a nap. After her nap, she went window shopping in the mall by herself. Even though she had no money to buy any new clothes right now, she still had a relaxing afternoon.

She goofed around till 4~5 PM before she suddenly remembered that her instant son was about to get out of school. Slowly, she headed toward the kindergarten to pick him up.

The one on duty to hand the children back to their parents was the same Teacher Lin from this morning. She waved at Yan Shuyu from afar, “Yuanjia’s Mommy, you are here early today.”
