Female Novel
Chapter 820
It was a coincidence that May met Henry. Henry was an orphan from France. Originally, he was
adopted by a rich family, but the couple was psychopathic, They liked to scare Henry, and saw him
scream in fear.
After Henry went to college, he didn't like to return to that home. Like a vagrant, he wandered around
all day.
May went to France to study. Henry was her classmate. At first, she didn't pay special attention to him.
At that time, she worked part-time while studying. She could only rent a small room, leading a poor and
busy life.
It was a rainy night, and it rained heavily.
When May returned to her small rented room from work, she was drenched. The cold rain made her
tremble. And then, she was shocked to find a man squatting at the door of her rented room. In the dim
light, afraid that he was a bad person, she didn't dare to approach. She even hesitated whether to call
the police.
"Don't call the police. I'm just sheltering from the rain." He looked down at the ground as if he felt her
tense.
He seemed to want to avoid any trouble, so he moved to allow her to open the door.
When May was still worried, he asked for food.
"May, I'm hungry. Could you give me some food?"
She was surprised, "You know me?"
When Henry raised his head, she realized that he was her classmate.
"I'm really hungry. I haven't eaten for days." He raised his head, smiled shyly, and looked at her eagerly
with blue eyes.
He was dressed in a mess, but his eyes were bright, and his smile was shy and innocent.
May softened immediately. She let him into the house, served him hot coffee, and gave him dry bread
to eat. However, Henry despised her food, cooked in the kitchen himself, and even made a fried egg for
her.novelbin
Henry's cooking was indeed much better than hers.
They sat face-to-face round a small wooden table, eating the most ordinary fried eggs. Henry's clothes
were unkempt, but he always wore a bright smile, as if he was carefree. His smile was quite
impressive.
After that, Henry became part of her life.
"The poor and slovenly youth has become a superstar."
May looked at a promotion for a new program in the mobile news. It turned out that Henry had decided
to work in China and had signed with a famous media company in A City.
She hoped that their long-term relationship could have a perfect ending and they could get married and
have a baby. In that way, Henry didn't have to fly around all day for work.
For their future, May thought that she should find a job.
After all, women in the 21 st century couldn't only rely on men and should be financially independent.
Previously, she had worked in a local French restaurant for many years, and she was relatively
experienced in management. She wanted to find a job among some famous restaurants near A City,
but they only wanted her to serve the dishes.
"You don't have connections, and you're not a fresh graduate. It's hard to find a job in these big
companies."
Cindy called to ask about her work. May was anxious and was rejected by all the companies. Some of
them even didn't give her a chance to interview.
"...I get a deep understanding that it's not easy to find a job even for people who have studied abroad."
"Returnees are less worth at home now."
Cindy thought for a moment and said, "I can recommend you to be the room manager of a hotel. I have
some connections with one hotel. The hotel and restaurant services seem to be similar..."
"The hotel's room manager is completely different from my previous job as a restaurant manager."
May sighed, "Cindy, you never work in your life. I envy you."
When Cindy graduated from college, she married Chad. She didn't need to work and enjoyed a rich
life.
"Fuck you. You said I never worked in my life. You mocked me."
She was still as straightforward as before.
"However, the job as the room manager seems to be difficult, especially when it comes to serving the
rich. Once, I saw a middle-aged man's wife rushing over angrily. Saying nothing, she slapped the room
manager and called her a whore, because her husband had a few words with the room manager. "
After thinking for a while, she said, "May, why don't you change your profession? You've been in
France for so long. You can be a translator. Then you don't have to serve the dishes."
"Working in the service industry is the most troublesome, especially serving the rich. You can't fight
back when you're taken advantage of and scolded."
Hearing this, May was at a loss, "What can I do if I change my profession?"
"I can ask Chad to introduce you to a clerical job."
Cindy, as Mrs. Wellens, only knew how to spend money and didn't know what kind of job was easy and
well-paid, but her husband was doing well in every workplace.
Hearing this, May immediately refused, "No, don't bother him."
"Okay. We can think of another way." Cindy replied.
In another early morning, May got up and tensely checked the emails on the computer. She had
submitted more than ten resumes, but there was no reply after several days.
"It's so hard for people who have no connections. I'll really serve the dishes?"
She sat on the small sofa and sighed.
In the past, she was too busy to feel sad when studying in France alone. However, when she suddenly
returned home, she lived a far quiet life and felt empty and lonely. She wanted to settle on someplace.
"The rest of the money is only enough to pay the rent for three months." She checked the balance on
the card.
At this moment, she heard someone was gently turning the key in the door lock, and she felt surprised.
She knew it was Henry because he always opened the door gently.
"Surprise!"
"Honey, I'm back!"
Henry opened the door and deliberately jumped into the room like Santa Claus, making a funny face
and holding a big pink gift in his hands.
