After three years of being married into the family, his identity as a miracle doctor can no longer b

The atmosphere in the private room gradually warmed up.

As Lin Jianguo raised his glass, the atmosphere instantly reached its peak.

His face was radiant, and he stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with the satisfaction of an elder.

"Come on! Let's all raise our first glass to Liu Qiang!"

"I heard you were successfully promoted to vice captain; that's real skill!"

"The responsibilities on my shoulders will be heavier from now on, but the future is absolutely bright!"

"Everyone, raise your glasses! May Liu Qiang rise to greater heights and have a bright future!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present stood up to show their support.

Congratulations to Liu Qiang on his promotion!

"If Liu Qiang becomes successful in the future, he'll have to take good care of our own people!"

The crisp clinking of glasses rang out one after another, creating a lively atmosphere.

Lin Yuan and Lin Wanrou also stood up.

At this moment, Lin Yuan appeared calm and composed, without the slightest hint of unease or inferiority.

He held his wine glass, looked at Liu Qiang with an open and honest gaze, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Brother-in-law, congratulations on your promotion."

His voice was not loud, but every word was clear, exuding an aura of neither arrogance nor servility.

He was completely free of his former dejection and timidity.

"Haha, thank you, brother-in-law!"

Liu Qiang laughed heartily, tilted his head back, and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

The moment he put down his wine glass, he subconsciously glanced at Lin Yuan several times.

I was filled with surprise.

Why is Lin Yuan completely different from before?

He used to be dejected all day long, with evasive eyes, speaking timidly, and exuding a sense of incompetence.

But today, Lin Yuan stood up straight and had clear, bright eyes.

Every word and action exuded an inexplicable confidence, and his composure was so profound that it made him seem unfamiliar.

Lin Wanrou, who was standing to the side, took in the whole scene.

A strange, inexplicable sense of loss welled up inside me.

She looked at Liu Qiang, who was full of vigor and had achieved great success in his career.

She glanced again at Lin Yuan, who still didn't have a proper job.

A tremendous sense of loss instantly filled my heart.

Other people's husbands are rising through the ranks, are respected, and have bright futures.

Her husband was idle all day long, accomplished nothing, and showed no future whatsoever.

Even though she knew in her heart that Lin Yuan had changed a lot recently.

However, the deep-rooted gap in reality still makes her unable to hold her head high in front of her relatives.

My heart felt heavy, an indescribable sense of oppression.

But she knows how to be tactful.

She quickly suppressed all her complicated emotions, put on a polite and gentle smile, and spoke softly.

"Brother-in-law, congratulations."

After a glass of wine, everyone took their seats.

After several rounds of drinks and dishes, the atmosphere in the private room became increasingly relaxed and casual.

Everyone chatted about everyday things, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Just then, my second aunt picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks, as if she had suddenly remembered something.

His gaze swept over the people at the table and landed precisely on Lin Yuan.

With the concern of an elder, he asked casually.

"Xiao Yuan, you're fully recovered now."

"Do you plan to find a proper job next?"

"We can't just stay at home idly and waste our days."

The moment those words were spoken, the chatter in the private room paused for a moment.

Several pairs of eyes fell on Lin Yuan at once.

There was curiosity and observation, subtle scrutiny, and a hint of hidden disdain.

Everyone knows that Lin Yuan has never had a stable job.

He's the one everyone in our circle of relatives considers the least promising.

Despite the stares of the crowd, Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged.

He calmly put down his chopsticks, met his aunt's gaze, and spoke in a flat tone.

"Second Aunt, I'm looking at it now, I'm about to look for it."

There was no embarrassment, no evasion, just openness and naturalness.

Seeing his calm attitude, his second aunt immediately chimed in.

He turned to look at Liu Qiang beside him, his tone filled with a matter-of-fact expectation.

"Liu Qiang, since Xiao Yuan is looking for a job..."

"Could you do me a favor and arrange for him to work in your public security brigade?"

"We're all family. Now that you've been promoted, it's only right that you help out your relatives."

The air instantly became slightly tense after those words were spoken.

Lin Wanrou's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

She instinctively wanted to speak up to help Lin Yuan out of the predicament.

This kind of forced help is not a form of mentorship; it's a disguised way of looking down on someone.

But just as she was about to make a move, she saw Lin Yuan sitting steadily in his original position.

His expression was calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever, as if he were quietly waiting for what would happen next.

Liu Qiang's face instantly showed obvious embarrassment.

He gave a wry smile and quickly began to explain.

"Mom, this is no small matter."

"The Public Security Brigade is a formal unit with strict recruitment standards; all new hires must pass an exam."

"As a newly promoted deputy captain, I have no right to hire people on my own."

This is absolutely true, without any falsehood.

The rules within the system are always strict; you can't get by with personal connections.

Seeing his mother's slightly somber expression, Liu Qiang, fearing an awkward situation, quickly changed the subject and offered a compromise.

"But since they're family, I can't just not help them."

"A regular government job is definitely out of the question, but I can ask around through connections."

"I was able to arrange a temporary job for my brother-in-law, but the pay isn't high."

"Two thousand a month, no social insurance or housing fund, and no promotion guarantee."

A monthly salary of two thousand yuan.

In this city where the cost of living is not low.

They can barely make ends meet, let alone save money, build a career, or even live a decent life.

To put it bluntly, it's the lowest level of menial, backbreaking labor.

The atmosphere in the private room froze instantly.

My second aunt's husband coughed lightly, lowered his head to drink his tea, and didn't say anything.

Lin Wanrou's face instantly darkened completely.

His fingers were clenched tightly around the tissue in his hand, his knuckles turning slightly white.

In her eyes, this was hardly helping.

This was clearly a humiliation of Lin Yuan in front of all the relatives!

My second aunt was completely unaware of this and thought it was an immense favor.

He quickly seized the opportunity and earnestly advised Lin Yuan.

"Xiao Yuan, look how loyal and caring your brother-in-law is!"

"Although the salary is a bit low, at least it's a government-affiliated unit, which sounds better."

"Just keep working diligently and gradually build up your experience. Maybe you'll have a chance to become a full-time employee."

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Yuan.

Everyone is waiting to see.

Will he rush to express his gratitude, or will he feel embarrassed and ashamed?

None of the expected scenes appeared.

Lin Yuan simply smiled faintly.

The smile was faint, calm and indifferent, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

He picked up the teacup in front of him and slowly took a sip.

His movements were relaxed and his posture casual, completely unaffected by the atmosphere around him.

She then looked up and calmly gazed at her second aunt and Liu Qiang.

"Second Aunt, I appreciate my brother-in-law's kindness."

The sound was clear and steadily carried throughout the quiet private room.

"But temporary workers are unnecessary."

"I'm a lazy and free-spirited person, I can't stand being restricted, and I'm not good at that kind of work."

He spoke casually, as if he were talking about something insignificant.

"As for work, there's no need for you to worry about it, brother-in-law."

Throughout the entire process, he remained neither arrogant nor humble, neither annoyed nor angry.

Everyone present was stunned.

Lin Wanrou turned her head sharply to look at him, her eyes filled with astonishment.

She never expected Lin Yuan to refuse so decisively and so frankly.

There was no hesitation, no embarrassment.

Even Liu Qiang and his enthusiastic matchmaker, the second aunt, were stunned.

They had considered countless possible outcomes.

Gratitude, hesitation, inferiority complex, forced toughness...

The only thing I didn't expect was that Lin Yuan would be so nonchalant.

It's as if they're proud of the resources within the system, the opportunities that others are scrambling to get.

In his eyes, it was not worth mentioning at all.

Lin Yuan leaned back in his chair, gazing out the window at the dazzling night view.

A sharp glint, unnoticed by anyone, flashed in his eyes.
