Footprints of Change Episode 22

Beggars can’t be choosers and roommates from hell

BeiChuan has a very good friend in Yan Jun. he has offered him a job and paid off the 60k he owed. Jun is in the high end dog business. He basically offered BeiChuan partnership to be a dog groomer, locator and advertiser. BeiChuan feels this is beneath him and a silly means of business. He is bossy and mocks his friend’s offer and steals his food. There is no doubt that ID theft ruined his current employment status, but I find his treatment of friend not too far above the one that stole from him. He’s a bit of a jerk and something about his features reminds me way too much of Yang.😝XiNing is packing her stuff up from work. Her desk mate offered some friendly advice and she returned it in like fashion.😂 While there, she hears a contract in negotiations with a big company for 5k pairs of jeans. Her ‘friend’ didn’t want to be bothered by the details in the contract and tossed it in ‘the get around to it’ pile. XiNing and BeiChaun find themselves at the same job fair. XiNing runs into a college friend who offers her a job. XiNing declines because it’s to be secretary to big shots who will treat her like an escort instead of capable employee. She finds herself at Yan Jun’s stand. He offers her a secretary position but his job description didn’t seem enough different from her friend’s job offer.😝She politely declines. Manager Li finds XiNing and persuades her to work for him. She mentions the contract and he tells her they have the right machinery and expertise to pull off the large order. She boldly goes to the company’s manager and tells him they have German looms and Japanese sewing machines able to accommodate the order. He is at least considering it. BeiChuan has swallowed his pride and accepted his friend’s offer. He finds out they are a company of two.🤣 That whole barbershop room gig was a good prank back for being such an ass earlier. He has to make due with a storage room. But it’s clean, a good size, and very close to work. XiNing finds herself in Yi’s old room. There are two beds and the older lady tells her she can choose but then wants it. XiNing tells her that’s where her friend slept that stole funds and caused the company to collapse. This lets her get her way with the bed, but her roomy is an avid tv watcher and loudly interacts with the programming. When XiNing asked her to tone it down a little, she swaps to Cantonese opera and starts singing. She wants to know if XiNing likes it better.😝 She leaves the room for some quiet and finds BeiChuan down the hall. She immediately steals half his noodles and shamelessly makes herself at home. She has them toast to better days coming. She then tells him a story which may or may not be true about his unsafe burner. After swearing it can burn down the house he complies. His friend wants to make XiNing’s acquaintance, but it looks like he is the one stuck with her. 😂 last arc getting started now with a new group.
