"Miss Xu, since this table has other people sitting at it, I won't disturb your meal. I'll go to another table," Jiang Chen said as he stood up, preparing to leave with Tengye Kikuko.
However, Du Guanghua was not about to let Jiang Chen go easily. He was troubled by the lack of opportunities to showcase himself, and now that Jiang Chen had presented himself, he intended to use Jiang Chen's perceived weakness to highlight his own superiority. In Du Guanghua's eyes, aside from being younger, Jiang Chen had nothing that could compare to him. It was truly shallow of Xu Zhuzhu to take the initiative to strike up a conversation with someone like him.
"Since you're Huaxia people, let's eat together. Don't be shy; today, I'm treating," Du Guanghua said with a smile.
"You’re in luck! Manager Du is treating you all to dinner. You can eat your fill today; don’t worry about saving money for Manager Du. The one thing Manager Du has plenty of is money; after all, he’s the chairman of Shenzhen Huiyang Investment Group," Qian Xinyi chimed in, her words dripping with flattery towards Du Guanghua.
Du Guanghua had already managed to persuade Xu Zhuzhu's parents, so it was easy to win over her friend Qian Xinyi with a few favors. Qian Xinyi was diligent in her role, eager to please Du Guanghua and practically worshipping him.
"Since Manager Du is treating, I’ll gladly accept," Jiang Chen replied with a smile. If Du Guanghua wanted to show off, let him; as long as he didn't go too far, Jiang Chen couldn't be bothered to argue.
Jiang Chen sat back down, and Qian Xinyi quickly shifted further into the booth to allow Du Guanghua and Xu Zhuzhu to sit together. Once seated, Du Guanghua immediately showcased his wealthy demeanor; with just a word, he had the restaurant owner come over personally—what a show of prestige! He then ordered a variety of exquisite dishes that required advance reservations.
When the food arrived, it was a feast for the eyes. Even Tengye Kikuko, the wealthy young lady from an island nation, couldn't help but stare in amazement at how rich Manager Du truly was.
Du Guanghua took it upon himself to peel shrimp for Xu Zhuzhu in a gentlemanly manner. She accepted with an awkward smile; at this point, she felt she had no choice but to accept his advances.
Jiang Chen was unreserved in enjoying the abundant delicacies laid before him. Seeing him eat without hesitation only fueled Du Guanghua's disdain further.
"Xiao Jiang," he said casually, "you look quite young; you must not have been working for long. Which company do you work for? If your qualifications are decent, you could join my company in the future."
Du Guanghua spoke with an air of superiority befitting a chairman, but unfortunately for him, that long-held position of power had no effect on Jiang Chen.
Tengye Kikuko nearly choked on her bluefin tuna sashimi at Du Guanghua's ridiculous attempt to show off in front of Jiang Chen and his absurd questions; it was almost laughable.
"I'm sorry!" Tengye Kikuko quickly apologized before returning her focus to her meal, not daring to interject further.
Jiang Chen smiled faintly and glanced at Du Guanghua before saying, "I just graduated from high school last year; I’m afraid I wouldn’t qualify for Manager Du's company."
"Oh, that explains your youth. My company only hires graduates from prestigious universities—985 schools or higher are considered; high school graduates can only work as operators. That might not be what you want! However, if I give you a backdoor opportunity, you could start in the office but would have to begin from the ground up. If you can pass the probation period, there’s potential for full-time employment," Du Guanghua said with a grin as if conducting an interview.
