Brush Up Your Proficiency

Relying on the intelligence she had gathered, Su Mo Dan quickly turned her attention to the target person she had come to find.

When she noticed that Wang Hao, upon seeing her, did not act like other men – shamelessly and brazenly trying to get close – a hint of admiration arose in Su Mo Dan's heart.

After all, such behavior from the person she wanted to recruit aligned with her idea of the qualities an excellent chef should possess!

However, what Su Mo Dan hadn't anticipated was Wang Hao's unintentional, subconscious action – taking a slight step back, as if wanting to maintain a certain distance from her.

This made her feel a slight, unpleasant premonition about the negotiations that were about to unfold.

It seemed that not only did this man not feel any closeness due to her appearance, but he also seemed to be distancing himself from her.

Wang Hao's action made Su Mo Dan feel somewhat puzzled; it was as if he had no intention of actively approaching her, and even faintly revealed a desire to avoid her!

Could it be that the powerful aura she was currently exuding was too aggressive, to the point of frightening him?

Despite the various questions swirling in her mind, Su Mo Dan still carried out her mission. She revealed a rare smile and said softly:

"Hello, I'm really sorry for the intrusion.

Let me introduce myself, I am Su Mo Dan, the owner of 'Zhi Zhen Yuan'. I'm here today hoping to have a brief conversation with Chef Wang Hao. I wonder if that would be convenient?"

If Cheng Yu Fei saw Su Mo Dan's current demeanor, she would definitely have something to say.

Under the slightly dim light, Su Mo Dan revealed a brilliant smile, like a melting iceberg, instantly stunning the three people present.

Normally, she appeared aloof and proud, but now, she was displaying such a charming smile that even He Xiao Qing, as a woman, couldn't help but sigh in admiration, let alone Wang Hao and Li Qiang.

If Wang Hao's mental strength hadn't advanced by leaps and bounds recently, greatly improving his resistance, he would have been unable to resist such a test of willpower and produce an almost instinctive immunity.

If it were like before, he probably wouldn't have been able to resist the other party's sweet smile and would have been captured by its allure.

Li Qiang, on the other hand, had his wife by his side, making his resolve incredibly firm. After hearing these words, he understood that the other party was clearly here for Wang Hao, and he and his wife seemed somewhat redundant.

Just as Li Qiang was about to say something, he was pulled aside by He Xiao Qing, afraid of disturbing Wang Hao's business.

Before leaving, He Xiao Qing didn't forget to smile slightly at Su Mo Dan, taking it as a greeting to this ethereally beautiful fairy.

Su Mo Dan also smiled in response to their tactful departure.

After watching them walk away for a distance, she once again turned her gaze back to Wang Hao – the man whose appearance was slightly different from the information she had previously collected.

"May I ask what brings Boss Su here to find me?" Seeing the boss, who called herself Su Mo Dan, turn her gaze towards him, Wang Hao asked with a smile, politely.

In fact, after hearing Su Mo Dan's self-introduction, Wang Hao had already roughly guessed the reason for her visit.

However, before the other party clearly revealed her true intention, he decided to feign ignorance, still exchanging pleasantries like he would with any stranger, but deep down, he couldn't help but maintain a certain distance from her.

After all, Wang Hao, who had experienced years of social life, had long developed an almost instinctive resistance to such strangers.

Because he knew that if he trusted someone he had never met without any precautions, it would often be difficult to have a good outcome.

Therefore, facing this woman who seemed beautiful and kind, Wang Hao always maintained a vigilant mind.

Sure enough, as Wang Hao expected, the other party quickly expressed her intention.

And Su Mo Dan seemed to see through his thoughts and, unlike others, did not beat around the bush, but directly stated her purpose:

"Chef Wang, I sincerely invite you to join our 'Zhi Zhen Yuan' as the head chef. As for the salary and benefits, you can rest assured that we will definitely not let you suffer any losses." With that, Su Mo Dan looked at Wang Hao with a sincere expression, her eyes full of anticipation.

If it were a man who had never experienced the world, facing a woman like Su Mo Dan, he would probably be directly hit and readily agree to the other party's request.

But Wang Hao was different. He simply didn't expect the other party to be so frank and straightforward. This communication style made him feel a sense of admiration.

In today's complex and ever-changing social environment, people who are so straightforward, without any beating around the bush, and can make people truly feel their sincerity, are truly rare.

Especially after Wang Hao carefully observed with his unusually powerful mental strength, the conclusion he reached was that the other party was indeed a sincere and unpretentious woman, which was even more commendable.

"Thank you very much for your kindness and recognition, Boss Su, but I am currently very satisfied with my work at 'Shi Wei Tian', and I am also a shareholder of 'Shi Wei Tian', so I have no plans to change jobs in the short term."

Wang Hao expressed his position sincerely but tactfully. Even though he had determined that the other party had the quality of treating people with sincerity based on his keen insight, he still chose to decline.

After all, in terms of the treatment he currently enjoyed, it was already perfect in Wang Hao's eyes.

He had always been well aware of the principle of 'too much is as bad as too little';

In addition, after recently studying "Lao Zhuang," he had become even more detached from money.

Su Mo Dan's lips curled up, revealing a smile that was not quite a smile, as if everything was under control.

She said softly: "I heard from Store Manager Chang about the shareholder thing, but it doesn't matter, I still want to try.

As long as you are willing to join 'Zhi Zhen Yuan', I will do my best to provide you with a better working environment than 'Shi Wei Tian', allowing you to fully showcase your cooking skills.

Not only that, but I am also willing to hire you with an annual salary of 5 million. Please rest assured that these conditions and benefits that I promise will be written in black and white in the contract, as long as you nod your head in agreement."

When the shocking words "five million" were uttered, even Wang Hao, who had always maintained a contented attitude towards money, couldn't help but feel a slight ripple in his heart.

You must know that that was a full 5 million! Not 500 yuan!

However, after a brief moment of surprise, Wang Hao finally shook his head firmly and said in a resolute tone:

"I'm really sorry, Boss Su. Although the conditions you offered are really very tempting, I still can't agree to you, I'm really sorry!" After feeling Su Mo Dan's sincerity, Wang Hao still refused her.

Faced with Wang Hao's refusal, a hint of surprise flashed across Su Mo Dan's face.

She never expected that the high annual salary of five million that she had offered would not be able to shake this man who had come from the countryside.
