Chapter 353 - Criteria For The Second Stage

Five minutes to the time the site for the competition was to be opened, Fu Hua sat on his desk and typed away.

Jia Li's resumé was ready and she was just waiting for the right time to send it over but Fu Hua got on his laptop and asked her to send it to him.

"What? Is it time already, we still have a few minutes left?" Jia Li said in surprise.

"Just do what I asked you to do." Fu Hua said without looking up. His tone wasn't harsh, just that he was a bit serious with work.

Jia Li sent the file to him and immediately walked over to see what he news doing.

Jia Li didn't understand the whole process until Fu Hua opened the site for the competition.

"What? How come it's open, it's just a minute to the time." Jia Li asked in surprise to see the site open.

"It was just opened now. The site is busy already, as many people are on it." Fu Hua replied as he typed away.

He was the Boss of FJ and he knew how things worked. When FJ said the site would be open by 7 AM, Fu Hua knew the sight would be enabled a few seconds or a minute or two before 7 AM.

After sending the application over, Jia Li and Fu Hua glued their eyes to the screen of the laptop to wait for the success message and then the time clocked 7 on the dot.

"Why is it taking so much time?" Jia Li asked with a frown. She was a bit tense as her application hasn't been accepted.

"There are thousands of people already on the site, so you don't expect to receive a response in a second. Wait for a few seconds, the traffic much." Fu Hua replied with his finger on his forehead as his gaze remained on the screen, never leaving.

"I am already nervous, check it out!" Jia Li said as she placed his palm on her left breast, so he could feel the rapid beating of her heart.

"I can see how tensed you are, do you want me to massage your heart so it could relax?" Fu Hua asked with a smirk.

Jia Li rolled her eyes at him and pushed his hand away. "I'm not in the mood to joke." She said as her gaze went back to the screen and there, she saw a message with a green ? icon, telling her that her application was received successfully.

(? Congratulations, your application was received successfully! Please check your mail in an hour for more information regarding the competition.)

"Ah! I got in!!!" Jia Li screamed on top of her voice out of excitement as she jumped up and down with an excited gaze. Her voice was too loud that Fu Hua had to protect his ears with his hands.

"Darling, I got in!" Jia Li said out of excitement as she ran towards him to give him a big tight hug.

Her hold was so strong that Fu Hua had to struggle to push her away. "I get it but are you trying to kill your husband?" Fu Hua asked with a frown, she almost choked him to death.

"I'm sorry but I'm so happy that I don't know how to express it!" Jia Li said with a smile.

She was so excited that her application was accepted. Earlier, she was nervous when her application was taking time to send but right now, her nervousness was replaced with unspeakable joy.

'You already expressed it by almost choking me.' Fu Hua thought.

"You look so happy when the competition is not over yet. Check your mail in an hour but for now, get back to work." Fu Hua said to her.

"What? Am I not even allowed to celebrate my small wins?" Jia Li asked as her smile disappeared. She thought Fu Hua would be all smiles now but his reaction was simply the opposite, he was fierce with her.

"The competition has not started but you have automatically joined the first round of the competition where you would have to start being serious." Fu Hua notified.

He didn't see her application being accepted as a big deal but deep down in his heart, he was very happy to see her smile so brightly. He couldn't reveal his true feelings because of a simple reason. He didn't want her to feel prideful.

Having heard that she had automatically moved on to the first stage of the competition, she went back to his side to ask, "So you know the criteria for going to the second stage?"

"That you win the first round." Fu Hua replied with his sight on his laptop. He knew what Jia Li was asking for but he didn't want to tell her about it.

Jia Li sighed and went back to her seat to continue drawing on her graphics tablet.

Fu Hua smiled at her and swirled on his seat. As she was backing him, she couldn't see the smile on his face.

Bai Jun was lucky enough to be the 999th person to be accepted. She almost went crazy when the network kept disturbing her because of the busy server.

For over 30 minutes, she has been trying to send her application but it wasn't working. The bitterness in her heart increased to the highest level and she even swore to lead a good life if she got in.

Right, when she made that promise, her application was accepted and she was excited. Apart from being excited, she was scared when she saw the rank she was in, 999 meant that she was lucky.

Bai Fen promised to take her to lunch and to shop for a few things just to congratulate her for being accepted to join the competition.

Other applicants all over the world who were lucky to be accepted to join in the competition, were currently celebrating with their friends and families.

An hour later, Jia Li checked her Email to see the mail from FJ, telling her that she has automatically entered the first round of competition, where the information on the resumé she submitted, will be reviewed and verified and the result will be announced within a few days.
