He hurriedly bent down to pick it up.
A long, well-proportioned male hand, with distinct knuckles and a sense of strength, accidentally touched his as they both reached for the first page of his resume.
Xiao Shou slowly raised his head and saw the exceedingly handsome face of a man. His eyes widened instantly, his heart thumped wildly, and his hand sprang away as if burned.
This was a moment for an internal monologue.
How can there be such a handsome man in the world?
What’s wrong with my heart? Why is it beating so fast?
The man picked up the first page of his resume, glanced at the photo on it, then looked at Xiao Shou, whose face was flush and who was staring at him intently, and dropped the remark, "Better looking than the picture."
He placed the resume back in his hands.
The elevator doors slowly closed, ascending upwards.
Xiao Shou stood alone in the elevator, listening to the sound of his wildly thumping heart in the quiet space, again asking himself what was wrong with him, why his heart would beat for a man? Was he just complimenting him for being good-looking?
He entered the interview room, where the other interviewees were mostly high-achieving students from Tsinghua and Peking University. His mere bachelor’s degree paled in comparison, and the three interviewers shook their heads in disapproval.
Then, the chief interviewer suddenly received a phone call, changing his tune, "Our CEO would like to see you."
The CEO? Why would he want to see him?
Xiao Shou, filled with doubts, walked to the CEO’s office, knocked on the door, and heard a deep and magnetic male voice from inside, "Come in."
Xiao Shou inexplicably found the voice familiar. He entered, and the chair behind the computer desk slowly spun around, revealing the man’s stunningly handsome face.
How could it be him?!
Xiao Shou was utterly shocked!
Here, the camera gave Bo Tingshen a close-up.
Daniel called cut and couldn’t help but admire, "A one-take wonder! Mr. CEO, your and Ye Xian’s expressive performances were terrific, even better and more exciting than I’d imagined!"
Bo Tingshen got up and walked over to Ye Xian, a faint smile lurking in his deep eyes, "Your heartbeat was quite loud just now, wasn’t it?"
Ye Xian: "It’s all technique, do you want to learn, Mr. CEO?"
"Technique?"
"Yeah, I have special acting techniques that I don’t normally share with people but if you, Mr. CEO, want to learn, just bring me a resource and I will... hey..."
"Let’s move on to the second act."
Bo Tingshen carried her by the collar and walked off.
The second act involves Xiao Shou becoming the CEO’s secretary, accompanying the CEO on a business trip abroad, and receiving horse-riding lessons from him at a horse ranch.
