“Hmm…”
Looking at the resume Longyue had personally filled out, Lin Fan’s brow furrowed tightly. He was at a loss for words.
“Empress, this is the resume you wrote?”
“How is it? Not bad, right~”
Longyue proudly lifted her fine nose, her face full of smug satisfaction.
“No good! Completely no good!”
Lin Fan denied her resume without a shred of mercy.
If this resume were to be sent out, there would probably be only one result: being treated as an idiot…
“Why is it no good?!”
Seeing the resume she had painstakingly written get rejected outright, Longyue argued back, unwilling to accept it.
In her view, her resume was absolutely the best, one-of-a-kind resume in this world. Who wouldn't be won over by her great achievements after seeing it?
Lin Fan rolled his eyes at Longyue, speechless, and tapped on the age column of her resume.
“Empress, putting aside for a moment whether anyone will believe your work experience and project experience, no one will believe your age of over 1,000 years old!”
“In this world, being over a hundred years old is already considered old age and long life!”
“Your advanced age of one thousand years old would be considered an old witch in this world!”
“O-Old witch…?”
Longyue couldn't help but silently lower her head, her eyes gradually becoming dim and dull.
Lin Fan’s words were like a sharp sword that pierced deep into her heart. The damage she received was more painful than being hit by a full-force palm strike from him…
She was clearly only about a thousand years old. In the Immortal Realm, that was considered the prime of her youth. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a young maiden of the Immortal Realm.
But here, she had actually become a woman at the level of an old witch…?
“Also, your expected salary is too high. Who asks for a salary of one hundred thousand on their first job search?”
Lin Fan didn't notice Longyue’s dejected mood and continued to correct her resume point by point.
Smack!
Longyue slapped the table and stood up, puffing up her round cheeks, and said aggrievedly:
“This Empress is the Empress of the Supreme Sacred Heavenly Palace. Is asking for a salary of one hundred thousand excessive?!”
With her status and abilities as the Empress of the Supreme Sacred Immortal Palace, she felt that asking for a mere one hundred thousand in salary was already very little!
“Empress, the salary in this world is determined by your previous work experience, project experience, and your academic qualifications. All of your experience in the Immortal Realm doesn't count here; no one will believe it.”
“Do you know what this resume of yours looks like when you send it out?”
“What does it look like?”
“Like you’re here to cause trouble.”
Longyue: “…”
Under Lin Fan’s sharp-tongued criticism, Longyue fell silent, finally having to obediently face reality.
Here, she was no longer the all-powerful Empress of the Immortal Realm, who was revered and respected by all...
“But if I don’t write it like this, this Empress has nothing else to write…”
Longyue hung her head in sorrow, her expression forlorn.
Whether in this world or in the Immortal Realm, she had never gone to school. Since childhood, she had always studied on her own in the palace and had no academic qualifications.
Besides her experience serving as the head of various divisions and as the Empress in the Immortal Realm, she had no other work experience or project experience.
“Forget it, this sovereign will help you revise your resume.”
Looking at the dejected Longyue, Lin Fan took her phone back and proactively began to make changes, one by one.
“First, there’s no surname ‘Long’ in this world. Your name needs a surname added to it, for example, Lin Longyue.”
Longyue leaned on the table, moving closer to Lin Fan to watch him make the changes.
“Why should this Empress have the same surname as you, Demon Sovereign?”
“…I'm just giving you an example. If you have another surname you like, you can just change it then.”
Lin Fan reached out and tapped Longyue on the head, then continued to revise:
“Next is age. No one will believe an age of over one thousand. Your Majesty, you don’t have to be so honest. Just make up a reasonable age.”
“Then let’s change it to sixteen~” Longyue said cheerfully.
Lin Fan: “…”
Lin Fan looked up, a constipated expression on his face as if he didn't know what to say.
“Empress, do you think you look like a sixteen-year-old girl…?”
“Hey! Take a good look, what part of me doesn’t look like it!”
Being called out, Longyue’s pretty face turned red, and she glared at Lin Fan, humiliated and enraged.
Lin Fan sized up her face repeatedly.
“Mmm… you look to be around twenty years old.”
“Hmph, twenty is acceptable, I guess.”
Hearing Lin Fan’s assessment of her twenty-year-old appearance, the corners of Longyue’s mouth rose in a slight, proud smile, and the gloom in her heart was swept away.
Although it wasn’t the sixteen she had hoped for, an age of twenty was reluctantly acceptable.
As it turns out, she really does still look very young~
Looking at Longyue, who was just short of having the four words "proud and complacent" written all over her face, Lin Fan gave a helpless smile.
She's over a thousand years old, yet still acts like a little girl…
However, her age in the Immortal Demon Continent really does seem to be considered quite young...
“Then for the salary, let’s change it to ten thousand.”
“O-One... ten thousand…? Isn’t that a little too low…”
Suddenly dropping from an expected salary of one hundred thousand to ten thousand, Longyue couldn't help but feel a huge gap in her heart, as if she had lost ninety thousand in an instant.
“Empress, a monthly salary of ten thousand is already quite a lot in this world.”
“With that one hundred thousand salary of yours, no company would ever look at it even if you left it up for a lifetime,” Lin Fan patiently persuaded.
“Alright then…”
In order to find a job as soon as possible, Longyue had no choice but to accept Lin Fan’s proposed revision.
When it came to the education column, Lin Fan thought seriously for a moment, then changed her academic qualification to "high school."
A university degree would require a graduation certificate and a degree certificate. Obviously, Longyue had neither of these, so he could only fill in a high school education.
If it was just a high school education, one generally didn't need to provide a graduation certificate or anything of the sort.
After that, Lin Fan meticulously fabricated a rich work history for her.
From a milk tea shop employee to an assistant in a large company, all sorts of work experiences were added.
“Demon Sovereign, this Empress has never done any of these things you wrote…”
Looking at the resume after Lin Fan’s revisions, Longyue’s fine brows furrowed slightly, a look of confusion on her face.
The resume clearly stated that she was skilled at shaking milk tea, could make desserts, and could even make hamburgers and fried chicken…
But she only knew how to eat these things, she had never made them…
“Empress, a resume needs a little embellishment, otherwise it’s very difficult to stand out from the crowd.”
As a seasoned veteran who had graduated many years ago, Lin Fan guaranteed with great confidence.
Given Longyue’s situation, with no academic qualifications and no work experience, if he didn’t add something to her resume, she would probably have a hard time finding a job in this lifetime.
“Alright, then this Empress will start trying to submit the resume!”
Longyue’s eyes narrowed with focus. Filled with nervousness and aspiration, she began to submit her resume on the recruitment app…
