448 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

# Chapter 448: Sister Yun, Let Me Treat You to Tea Wang Yun has been having headaches lately, especially now that the holidays are over. With the financial companies back to work, she, having recently resigned from her position as a director, was forced to embark on a job-hunting mission. Though Wang Yun had recently made a substantial profit from Yutu stocks, having a stable job remains essential. After all, working independently as a stock investor is not only tiring but also challenging to find information, which is far easier with a team. Even though Wang Yun is a veteran in the stock market, she can't guarantee every transaction will be profitable. Without a source of income due to unemployment, suffering losses would be unbearable for her. Wang Yun realizes that this path could lead her to despairing ends, quite literally. She doesn't want to end up like those tragic figures. Therefore, having formally signed the resignation letter with Zhennan, Wang Yun once again set foot on the path of job hunting. Leaving a financial company is unlike other industries; information related to past dealings and revenue is confidential and challenging to take along. Wang Yun's outstanding looks also posed a unique challenge. Although she always maintained a well-kept appearance and dressed maturely and attractively in her office attire for interviews, her youthful charm sometimes backfired due to the seniority needed for the position of an investment director. Despite her solid expertise, her youthful appearance often led people to question her reliability. This reaction was not surprising to Wang Yun. Even while working at Zhennan, large clients often showed skepticism when they saw her, not the typical 'expert' with a beard, as their investment director. Wang Yun resents this old-school mentality that equates age with experience, though she understands she can't change societal norms. Thus, she decided to cast a wide net and apply to as many places as possible. On October 8th, the first day stocks reopened, she attended two interviews in the morning and three in the afternoon. The director position requires more thorough questioning than basic roles, and each interview was analyzed by multiple people. Despite this, Wang Yun faced each session without fear, confidently expressing her viewpoints. Chit-chat went smoothly, and like most director selections, it required multiple rounds of interviews. Wang Yun, familiar with the process, left each company without much delay after the final interview and drove her little red car back to Green City Community, intending to find solace with her beloved at home. Unbeknownst to Wang Yun, her job-hunting journey will be long and arduous. The main culprit behind this is Yang Hao, the vice president of her former employer, Zhennan. After their nephew Yang Zongfan was detained, and Wang Yun resigned, Zhennan lost two critical directors, their equivalent to left and right arms. But this was only the beginning. With the Su Qi shares incident and lawyer Lin Zi's involvement, Zhennan found itself in hot water. After all, misconduct toward a stock god and forcing their resignation couldn't be kept from the internet-savvy public. Currently, 'Zhennan' is being heavily criticized online. Combining that with Yang Hao's previous decision not to heed Wang Yun's advice—instead of supporting Yutu stocks, he invested in other stable stocks and even incurred minor losses—the ripple effects were damaging. Though gains and losses are normal in the stock market, and even stock firms can't always promise profits, Yang Hao's minor setback led many old partners to withdraw investments. October, a new month, saw over half of their clients applying to dissolve investment agreements, reducing their once 450 million asset pool by more than sixty percent. Zhennan's liquidity dropped to just 200 million, causing a chain reaction affecting its other regional branches. This debacle left Yang Hao, now the only remaining senior executive after Yang Zongfan was incarcerated, facing direct criticism from the company president and board chairman. The damage was substantial, with losses calculated in billions. In his view, Yang Hao blamed Wang Yun for these setbacks. After all, she had often opposed him. Previously, Yang Hao had admired Wang Yun's capabilities, but their relationship had severely deteriorated. Now that Wang Yun had signed the resignation deal this morning, Yang Hao, as her adversary, would naturally not let her secure an investment director's role elsewhere smoothly. As soon as Wang Yun left, Yang Hao instructed several former subordinates under Yang Zongfan's team to spread rumors about Wang Yun's alleged misconduct against her superiors to his contacts in other companies, intending to make her job search even more difficult. Completely unaware of this, Wang Yun finally drove back to Green City Community by 4 PM. Thinking of her beloved waiting at home, Wang Yun stopped her car. For a moment, all her exhaustion seemed to dissipate, a smile spreading unconsciously on her lips. Soon the elevator reached the 15th floor. Although Wang Yun, as the landlord, had a key, she still rang the bell of apartment 1507. Soon, footsteps could be heard approaching from within the room. Hearing those familiar steps, Wang Yun suddenly understood what it meant when people online described the feeling of having someone you love waiting for you at home. As Wang Yun stepped into the room, a whiff of the familiar fragrance from her beloved filled the air, bringing her immense satisfaction. Taking a few deep breaths, Wang Yun locked her gaze onto the cute face of her beloved. Curiously, even though she saw Su Qi every day, Wang Yun never felt bored; instead, she felt an increasing urge to spend more time together. Having never been in a relationship, Wang Yun realized, gazing at her beloved, that the sweetness swelling in her heart might indeed be the feeling of being in love—how magical it was! Just as Wang Yun was about to embrace her beloved to soothe the day's interview fatigue, she was unexpectedly refused by Su Qi. However, Wang Yun didn't feel too disappointed because she soon discovered the reason behind her beloved's rejection. Seeing the red tomato sauce staining Su Qi's clothes and the cookbook she had once bought near the cutting board, Wang Yun felt a rush of warmth in her heart. After dinner, the two discussed some stock market topics, took a bath, and prepared to drift into a sweet slumber. Perhaps it was just Wang Yun's imagination, but she felt her beloved was particularly thoughtful today. After the bath, Su Qi even brewed a cup of fragrant tea and brought it to her, saying: "Sister Yun, enjoy your tea!"
