Chapter 45: My Foolish Litter Shovel Officer, You Finally See the Light
“Meow meow~（ It sounds pretty good, but my pure Litter Shovel Officer, haven’t you noticed you’ve been tricked?）”
Hearing this, Li Li muttered. What could a base salary of 2,800 yuan do? After food, drinks, and rent, there’s nothing left.
Besides, if selling houses was easy, wouldn’t it have been someone else’s turn long ago? This is clearly a real estate company painting a rosy picture, deceiving fresh college graduates.
Did his Litter Shovel Officer just fall for it so foolishly? He’d be better off as a car salesman.
At least, even if people don’t buy houses, they’ll definitely buy cars.
Plus, with his Litter Shovel Officer’s pure eyes, maybe he could even make a sale in his first month.
In that case, the money wouldn’t be any less than a real estate salesperson, right? The most important thing is that a car salesperson can drive. If it doesn’t work out, learning to drive wouldn’t be bad either.
“Li Li, are you happy for me?” Li Hao asked with a smile, listening to Li Li’s meows.
“Meow meow~（No, no.）” Li Li wriggled out of his arms and shook his head in front of Li Hao.
As a seasoned cat, he felt it was necessary to remind his Litter Shovel Officer: Don’t do it! If he finds it too tiring after half a month and runs away again, it’ll be a loss.
After all, companies these days are cunning as foxes. They won’t sign a contract during the probation period, and the salary is paid one month in arrears.
If he only works for half a month, they won’t pay him at all.
“Uh, Li Li, what do you mean by shaking your head?” Li Hao was taken aback. He knew his Li Li was smart, almost to the point of being a spirit, but what did he mean by jumping out now?
“Meow meow~（I want to tell you, being a real estate salesperson is unreliable. Find another job.）” Li Li said, walking to the wall and shaking his head, his paw against the wall.
He was being so obvious; surely he could understand, right?
“Li Li, are you saying that being a real estate salesperson is no good?” Li Hao asked after thinking for a moment.
“Meow meow~（Yes.）” Li Li nodded.
“But I think it’s pretty good. Li Li, why do you think it’s not?” Li Hao asked curiously.
“Meow meow~（Because this is the experience of a seasoned cat.）” Li Li said, jumping back onto the bed.
Why not? When he was human in his past life, he had fallen into this kind of trap, hadn’t he? Why was he asking?
“Li Li, although I don’t know why you don’t want me to be a real estate salesperson, I’ve already promised the company I’ll go to work tomorrow.”
“If it’s really not good, I’ll listen to you and run away early, okay?” Li Hao said, hugging him as he jumped up.
He had already promised the company; he couldn’t go back on his word, could he?
“Meow meow~（Then do as you please. Don’t miss the chance to run away with your bucket.）” Li Li muttered. If he wouldn’t listen, there was nothing he could do. He just hoped that he wouldn’t be cheated out of his money after he went to work.
“Speaking of which, Li Li, it’s been a long time since we slept together. How about we sleep together tonight? I believe you can definitely bring me good luck.” Just as Li Li was about to return to his cat bed to sleep, a pair of hands suddenly picked him up.
“Meow meow~（You’re such a grown man, and you still need me to coax you to sleep? This is too much for me.）” Li Li said helplessly. He wanted to break free from his arms, but thinking that he had just broken up not long ago, he let him be.
“Mhm, Li Li is the best.” Li Hao said happily, carrying Li Li into the bed and falling asleep soon after.
It seemed like he was really tired today.
“Meow meow~（Sleeping so soundly.）” Li Li mumbled as he crawled out of the sleeping Li Hao’s arms, carefully covering his hand with the blanket.
Then, in a few swift movements, he jumped into his own cat bed and went to sleep.
There were still five days until the instance; he had to seize these five days to eat and drink well and develop properly.
He didn’t aim to become a super cat, but he couldn’t be too weak either.
Thinking of this, Li Li closed his eyes.
He was also tired from walking around all day.
The next morning, when Li Li got up from his bed, he found the bed empty.
Looking at the bright sun hanging high outside, he understood that his Litter Shovel Officer had gone to work.
He didn’t even hear him get up; he must have left very early.
He hoped he would have a good mood at work today. Li Li thought as he got up to eat his cat food.
He hadn’t had time to cook pig liver for him recently, so he could only make do with cat food. But it didn’t matter; he wasn’t a picky cat.
His task today was still very clear: to continue to freeload. But before that, he had to go to Glasses Bro’s place to see how the Calico cat was doing.
After taking a sip of water, Li Li slipped out the door and ran towards Building Eleven not far away. He arrived at Glasses Bro’s door and knocked with his paw.
But there was no movement inside, not even a meow.
Li Li retracted his ears and muttered to himself:
“Meow meow~（Looks like Glasses Bro isn’t home, and neither is the Calico cat. Maybe Glasses Bro took the Calico cat to the hospital for an IV drip. After all, the Calico cat’s injuries were quite serious. In that case, it’s best not to bother them.）”
Thinking of this, Li Li walked downstairs and headed towards his destination.
At night, when Li Li returned from his routine of begging for food, he discovered that his Litter Shovel Officer had actually come back before him.
“Li Li, you’re back? I think you might be right. I’m not suited for this job. Today, the manager told us that new employees don’t have to work overtime, but after a week, we’ll have to.” Li Hao said, holding Li Li who had just entered. “And I heard from the senior staff that this industry isn’t doing well right now, so I’m planning to look for another job tomorrow.”
He was still enthusiastic about the job when he went to work today, but after only working for half a day, he found it boring and tedious.
Moreover, their manager wasn’t very nice either. Seeing the senior staff being reprimanded made him feel uncomfortable.
So, after careful consideration, he decided to just leave.
“Meow meow~（A wise decision. I hope your next job will be better.）” Li Li nodded after hearing this. This was what it was like to find a job after graduating.
Find one, and if it doesn’t feel right, switch to the next. Although the process is bumpy, it’s better than changing after half a month.
“Li Li, you think so too, right?” Li Hao rolled over, holding Li Li, and said, “I’ve decided to apply for a job tomorrow at a company that only requires phone calls. It says there are no performance requirements.”
