Chapter 2963: Chapter 2963: I’ll Arrange a Job for You
Over the next few days, Lin Yi didn’t return to Zhong Hai.
The main purpose was just to spend time with Liang Ruoxu and the kid.
Father and son were apart more than they were together, the kid probably didn’t even recognize him anymore.
And over these days, besides dealing with Liang Ruoxu, he also took care of Ning Che.
After staying for about a week and handling everything, Lin Yi returned to Zhong Hai.
This time, he was picked up by Qin Han and the other two; Ji Qingyan didn’t come.
As usual, after he returned, they prepared a table full of dishes for Lin Yi, and they drank until the early morning.
When Lin Yi got up the next morning, it was already noon.
He found Ji Qingyan also looking into early childhood education stuff, even teaching her the English alphabet.
"Learning this now seems a bit inappropriate."
"It’s not early at all," Ji Qingyan said very seriously:
"A friend’s kid can already recite all 26 English letters."
"It doesn’t matter if she can’t do that, we can just hire someone who can; we don’t have money troubles."
"How can that be, if she relies on money for everything, won’t she become useless?"
"Mommy, Daddy..."
Just as they were talking, Little Nuonuo chimed in with her baby voice.
"Look how smart my daughter is; she already knows how to call Daddy. Even if she learns a few years late, she’ll catch up."
"She’s not calling for you, she’s saying she needs to poop."
"Uh... she’s already telling us on her own?"
"Of course, she’s inherited my good genes, her brain can’t be bad."
"She’s already letting us know herself, my daughter has a bright future."
After resting at home for a day, Lin Yi went back to work the next day.
"You had a good break, right? Took over 40 days off," Ding Fei said.
"Mainly because I was injured, had to take extra time to heal."
Lin Yi’s whereabouts were unknown to his colleagues at the fire station.
They all thought he was just home recovering.
"That’s right, recovering is the main thing, wouldn’t want any lasting issues," Ding Fei said, patting Lin Yi on the shoulder:
"All good now, right?"
"No big issues anymore."
"Don’t push yourself. If you still don’t feel good, say so. Just do what you can handle, you don’t have to respond to fire alarms."
"No need, I’m all good now."
"Then we’ll stick to the plan; the fire safety awareness task is yours," Ding Fei said:
"Are you referring to the lecture at the university we talked about before?"
"Yep, in our whole squad, you’re the best-suited for this; only you can do it," Ding Fei said:
"Besides that, there’s something else I need to talk to you about."
"Judging by your look, it’s nothing good. You’re not gonna make me sell my looks, right?"
"I knew you were sharp, got it right away," Ding Fei laughed heartily:
"The city opened a Douyin account about fire safety, there’s a live stream next week, and you’re asked to be a guest."
Lin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t expect to rely on his looks so much even in the fire squad.
Ring Ring Ring——
Just then, the alarm sounded, and Lin Yi and others instinctively rushed to change clothes and head out within three minutes.
"What’s with people nowadays, always threatening to jump. Isn’t life good?" Liu Qingfeng complained.
"Life’s pressures are high, you can understand if someone feels hopeless," Ding Fei said:
"Yesterday, your sister-in-law was reading the news and saw an eight-year-old diagnosed with depression, can you believe that."
Soon, they arrived at the scene.
Compared to the last jumper, this building wasn’t that tall, just seven stories.
The man intending to jump stood on the fifth floor.
If he accidentally fell, there was a 90% chance he’d die.
Upon arrival, they immediately set up an air cushion.
"Old Zhou, Qingfeng, you two come upstairs to help, Lin Yi and Chunyu stay here on watch."
"Got it!"
A crowd gathered below the jumper, all looking worried.
"Brother, calm down, you’re still young, no need to do this," Xu Chunyu shouted from below.
"I’m 38, we just had our second child, and I got fired. I’ve sent out dozens of resumes and got nothing but rejections. I’m done."
Hearing this, Xu Chunyu didn’t know what to say.
Though he wasn’t wealthy, he lived comfortably and didn’t know how to console someone in this situation.
"This one’s tricky."
The speaker was a police officer standing nearby, seemingly there to negotiate.
"Isn’t there another way?" Xu Chunyu asked.
"We just have to do our best," the negotiating officer said:
"People like this have weathered many storms. Once they become disheartened, they’re more resolute, so we can only do our best."
"With this kind of issue, you should resolve the root cause," Lin Yi said.
"I think as long as he rekindles hope in life, it shouldn’t be too hard," Xu Chunyu said.
"Brother, I know times are tough, but there’s no need to think about ending it over a job. You come down, and I’ll help you find one."
"Don’t try to persuade me, I studied computing, but I’m too old now, nobody wants someone like me."
The middle-aged man said resignedly:
"If you want me to work manual labor, a 4 to 5k salary isn’t enough for the mortgage. I can’t live like this anymore."
"I never said manual labor, how about Lingyun Group? That should meet your needs, right?"
Upon hearing this, quite a few people around looked at Lin Yi in surprise.
"Don’t joke around; this is no joke. If he thinks you’re lying, he might jump."
"Who said I’m lying? It’s just a job; it’s not a big deal for me."
While they spoke, the middle-aged man on the fifth floor said:
"Don’t lie to me. Big companies like Lingyun Group wouldn’t hire someone like me."
"Nothing’s impossible. Give me your contact info."
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, unsure what to say.
"If you still want a job, give me your contact info, I promise I’m not lying."
"Here, here’s my resume, you can look at it..."
The middle-aged man tossed his bag down, and Xu Chunyu quickly picked it up and handed it to Lin Yi.
Looking over the man’s resume, Lin Yi thought it wasn’t bad.
Graduated from a prestigious school, rich work experience, just a bit older without having reached management and then got unceremoniously cut.
With this in mind, Lin Yi took a photo and sent it to Qi Xianzhao with a voice note.
"Get in touch with this guy right now, find him a job."
