Chapter 209: Internship

Chapter 209

When Chi Yan returned to the Forest Garden Community, Chu Yang had just finished taking a shower. "You're back?" she asked.

Chi Yan took off his coat and changed his shoes. "Mm-hmm. Grandfather said to bring you over to see him when we have time. So, do you want to go?" Chi Yan looked at Chu Yang.

Chu Yang paused while drying her hair. "Um... let's wait a bit longer."

Chi Yan walked over and hugged her. "How long should we wait?"

Chu Yang thought for a moment. "Let's see how things go. I don't think now is a good time. Classes start the day after tomorrow." She felt like meeting the family seemed like moving to the next stage, and she thought it was too soon.

Chi Yan kissed her cheek, not pressuring her. "Alright."

"You should go take a shower. You must be tired from hiking today. Let's get to bed early."

"Okay."

After classes started, things were similar to before, except this semester seemed to have fewer courses. They also needed to do an internship and submit an internship report.

Many classmates were looking for internship positions. There were some positions available at the university, like in the library, but there weren't many, and they had to match your major. Some companies also had partnerships with A University, so if you didn't want the school to arrange it, you could find an internship on your own.

In the end, you'd need to submit an internship report stamped by the company.

During the meeting, the teacher said, "If you've already found an internship, please let me know. For those who haven't, the school will arrange it for you. You have one week to decide."

"Yang Yang, are you going with the school's arrangement?" Jin Yang asked Chu Yang. "I'm thinking of letting the school arrange it. The companies partnered with the school are all big enterprises, like X Technology and X Unit."

Chu Yang nodded. "I'll go with the school's arrangement too." It was just an internship, after all, so it didn't matter much.

Besides, the internship was only for a month.

"I hope we can be placed in the same company," Jin Yang said, holding Chu Yang's hand.

"Let's hope so."

"Does anyone want to intern at my family's company? You can let me know. We have four spots," said Zhang Xinghai, a rich girl in their class whose family owned a medium-sized enterprise. "Chu Yang, would you like to come?"

Chu Yang shook her head. "Jin Yang and I will go with the school's arrangement. Thank you, though."

"No problem. Anyone else who wants to come is welcome. I can take care of you guys."

"Xinghai, can I come?" someone asked.

"Of course! We'll have fun together."

"Great, I want to go too. I'm worried the companies partnered with the school might be too strict. It's better to have connections."

After the class meeting ended, the teacher told everyone to go ahead and find their own internships if they wanted, or tell her if they wanted the school to arrange it. Chu Yang and Jin Yang immediately told the teacher they wanted the school's arrangement.

Back in the dorm, Qian Xin and the others were also discussing this.

"How are you arranging your internships?" Qian Xin asked.

Jin Yang put down her bag and sat down. "Of course, we're letting the school arrange it. Time flies, doesn't it? I can't believe it's already time for internships."

"Yeah, I'm letting the school arrange mine too," Qian Xin said.

Zhou Caicai chimed in, "I found my own. I already have it lined up. I know someone, and connections make things easier."

"It's just a month anyway, so we might as well treat it like a fun experience. I hope the companies the school assigns us to aren't too strict. I wonder if we'll need to wear formal attire. Should we buy some?"

"It probably depends on where we're assigned. Some companies are stricter about dress codes, and it also depends on the position."

"You're right."

That evening, Chu Yang returned to the Forest Garden Community. Since they had hired a housekeeper to cook, dinner was ready when she got back. The housekeeper left after preparing the meal, and she would clean up the dishes the next morning.

Chi Yan came home shortly after. He hadn't gone to the office today but had been to the university instead.

As soon as he arrived, he brought up the same topic. "Are you all going for internships?"

Chu Yang served him a bowl of rice. "Yes, I'm letting the school arrange it. I'll go wherever they assign me. Jin Yang is doing the same."

Chi Yan had been thinking of suggesting Chi Technology, but hearing this, he swallowed his words. Since Chu Yang had already decided, there was no point in saying anything.

"Alright. Let me know where you're assigned, and I'll drive you to work."

Chu Yang glanced at him. "We'll see. If it's in the opposite direction, I can go by myself."

"That works too. You can drive there."

Chu Yang shook her head. "That would be too flashy."

Chi Yan suggested, "How about I buy you a more low-key car?"

Chu Yang refused. "Don't buy unnecessary things. I can buy one myself. I have money."

"Okay."

The next day, Chi Yan went to the office and suddenly thought of something. He asked, "Does our company have a partnership with A University?"

His assistant nodded. "Yes, we do. Our company has partnerships with A University, B University, and other famous universities. We're about to have a batch of interns from A University coming for internships soon. But the candidates haven't been selected yet." Lu Shu had returned to work for the old man, and Chi Yan's new assistant was named Qi Jie.

"Good."

In the afternoon, Chi Yan went to chat with the HR manager.

"I heard we're going to have a batch of students from A University coming for internships?"

"Yes, that's right." The HR manager found this inquiry a bit strange.

"What positions are available?"

"Apart from some positions that require specific skills, many positions are open. It mainly depends on their majors."

"Are there any for literature majors?"

"Yes, there are several positions for that."

Chi Yan pondered for a moment. "I know two people."

The HR manager immediately understood. "No problem, I'll make sure to arrange it."

Chi Yan nodded. "Thank you. Their names are..."

After Chi Yan left, the HR manager wiped his brow, thinking to himself that he would make sure those two were well taken care of when they arrived.

A week later, the assignments were announced. Chu Yang looked at her assigned location: Chi Group Headquarters Building.

"Did you arrange this?" Chu Yang called Chi Yan directly.

Chi Yan felt a bit guilty, worried that Chu Yang might think he was being presumptuous. "Yes. I found out our company had a partnership, so I just mentioned it. I thought it would be nice to commute together. Are you... upset?"

Chu Yang sighed. "I'm not upset. Just don't be too conspicuous when I'm there, okay?" She preferred to keep a low profile.

"Okay. I can do it, we'll do it secretly."

Chu Yang: ...Why does this sound like we're having an affair?

"Alright, anywhere is fine. You arranged for Jin Yang to be there too, right?"

"Yes. You said you wanted to curse together with her, so I directly had someone arrange it."

"Okay, thanks anyway."

"There's no need for thanks between us. Just give me more kisses tonight, or let me..."

Chu Yang: "...Where's your shame?"

Chi Yan laughed happily, "My shame? My face is here for you to kiss."

Chu Yang: She had lost this one.
