Han Feng immediately noticed that the Flower Picking System's task had changed. The reward had gone from 500 yuan to High School Mathematics Mastery (Intermediate). He froze. Had the task gotten harder again?
The reward for the task of touching Li Feifei's butt had changed once before, too. That was because he had found her bra and personally returned it to her. Their coming face-to-face again had undoubtedly made the task more difficult..
But just then, the girl at the front desk spoke, pulling Han Feng back to reality. "I'm sorry, sir. Our boss said that anyone applying for the piano player position needs a qualification certificate. Otherwise, they can't even interview!"
The girl explained apologetically to Su Ke. Everyone applying for the job had to pass her screening before she could report them to the boss.
"Uh!" If the old Su Ke had heard that, he would have covered his face and walked away at once. After all, he really didn't have any qualifications. But now he had no choice but to swallow his pride and speak up again, because this task's reward meant far too much to him.
With High School Mathematics Mastery (Intermediate) as his reward, Su Ke's grades would surely improve again. The math portion of the college entrance exam was worth 150 points. With the beginner level, he could probably score around 110; intermediate should put him near 130. If he got the advanced level, he might even earn a perfect score.
"Miss, could you help me out? I really need this job. My family isn't well-off, and my parents are working hard to save up for my college tuition. I really want to help ease the burden on them!" Su Ke gazed at the girl earnestly. The pleading look in his eyes made him seem rather pitiful.
His calling her "Miss" made the girl blush. Looking at Su Ke, she saw a faint trace of boyish innocence on his face, but his bright eyes and high nose gave him a handsome, refined look. Hearing that he wanted to help ease his family's burden made her like him even more..
"Ah, I can't make that decision myself. How about I explain your situation to the boss when she gets back?" The girl wanted to help Su Ke, but she was only an employee herself. Even offering to put in a good word for him was already going above and beyond. "But how good are you at piano?"
Langfang City wasn't a major metropolis, so it couldn't offer the same abundance of talent as Yanjing. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone half a month without finding a suitable piano player, despite putting up an advertisement. Most talented pianists weren't willing to show off their skills in a place like this; teaching lessons at home was much easier.
And the applicants who weren't very good but tried to bluff their way through had all been rejected by the boss, even when they had piano certificates. So before recommending Su Ke to the boss, the girl had to find out how well he played. Otherwise, she wouldn't be doing her job responsibly.
"I think—I think I'm pretty good!" Su Ke's face burned. He had no idea how good he was, but he couldn't exactly say, "I don't know, either." Wouldn't that be shooting himself in the foot? No matter what, he had to give it everything he had for the High School Mathematics Mastery (Intermediate) reward.
The girl raised her arm to check the time. The elegant women's watch on her wrist was beautiful. "How about this? The boss hasn't come back yet. Come upstairs with me and try playing something. Then I'll have something to tell her when I report back."
Seeing how warmly the girl was helping him, Su Ke smiled and nodded. "Miss, thank you so much!" He knew that even the chance to audition wasn't something he could easily get.
The girl came out from behind the front desk and was about to take Su Ke upstairs when he realized she was actually quite tall, about 168 centimeters by his estimate. Her silver business suit hugged her figure, accentuating every curve.
"Skrrt!"
The sound of a car braking came from outside the shop. The girl and Su Ke both looked out.
It was a black car with a Volkswagen logo. Su Ke didn't know the exact model. The door opened, and a long, shapely leg in black stockings emerged. It had a beautiful curve and was paired with silver-white, crystal-embellished high heels with chunky heels. Even through the stockings, the skin of her legs looked taut, smooth, and elastic.
As the woman stepped out, a stunning figure came into view. She wore a light yellow, sweet and airy sleeveless dress, leaving her tender arms bare. The fabric was a distinctive openwork linen blend, with a layer of mesh lining that offered a glimpse of her smooth, pale skin. Her full breasts rose high, decorated at the chest with large leaf-shaped accents, making for a very alluring sight.
Her wavy curls fell over her shoulders, dyed a wine-red shade that gave her a fiery air. She held a leopard-print clutch in one hand. Her cheeks were flushed, and her captivating smile carried a faintly tipsy charm.
"Director Li, thanks for bringing me back!" Her voice was slightly hoarse. The woman bent down to bid farewell to the person in the car, her buttocks directly in Su Ke's line of sight. Dresses like that usually ended above the knees, and the tight fabric outlined her curves provocatively. He couldn't even make out the edge of her underwear; she was probably wearing a thong.
If the woman leaned forward just a little more, the hem would ride up to her buttocks. Su Ke frowned. Deep down, he was a little put off by women who dressed like this. After taking one look, he looked several more times.
"Our boss is back!" the girl at the front desk said, then hurried over to greet her.
Su Ke hadn't expected that woman to be the boss of Fangfei Yiren. She was incredibly alluring, radiating charm. Once the black car slowly drove away, she headed inside. Su Ke didn't know how much she had drunk, but she was staggering a little. Fortunately, the girl from the front desk was supporting her.
As the girl helped her boss inside, she whispered something in her ear. If Su Ke guessed right, she was telling her about his application. He suddenly felt nervous.
"You're here to apply for the piano player position?" The woman slowly walked over and stopped in front of Su Ke. Even in high heels, she was as tall as he was. As she spoke, her breath, tinged with alcohol and some kind of fragrance, wafted right over to him. It smelled pretty good.
"Hello, I'm here to apply!" As soon as Su Ke met the woman's eyes, his face turned red. He lowered his head, looking more like a shy young girl.
The woman shook her head. She felt Su Ke's personality wasn't suited to working here. The girl at the front desk had just said he wanted to help ease his family's burden, but she wasn't running a charity. She could only apologize. "Sorry, you don't have a piano qualification certificate, and you're still a student. This job isn't right for you."
"Huh?" Su Ke finally lost his composure. He lifted his head and stared into the woman's eyes. "Please give me a chance to audition. If I'm not good enough, I'll leave right away!"
"Oh?" Su Ke's sudden change caught the woman's interest. At first he had been as bashful as a timid bride, but now he seemed confident and forceful. The alcohol seemed to be going to her head, and her cheeks grew even redder.
"Come upstairs with me. If you satisfy me, I'll hire you." With that, she headed upstairs, and Su Ke hurried after her.
