Chapter 1447 - 1517: Featured in Time Magazine
Demira flicked her golden wave curls, trying her best to show her most seductive side. She came with full confidence, but the moment she saw Sheng Ning in front of her, her heart sank halfway, ready for rejection.
The beauty before her was extraordinarily attractive, and usually, beauties don’t like or are jealous of other beauties. She’d rather work with men than women; if she wasn’t truly out of money, she wouldn’t stay a minute.
Sheng Ning noticed the poorly concealed arrogance in her eyes and nodded slightly, "Hello, I am Sheng Ning. What position are you applying for?"
"Manager." Demira lifted her chin arrogantly and said, neither humble nor overbearing, "I only want to be a manager."
"What if it’s not a manager?" Sheng Ning looked at her clothes.
Demira bit her lip, hesitating for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Then I won’t do it." She felt she had the capability and absolutely didn’t want to lower her status.
"Your clothes are rented, yet you’re unwilling to lower your stance. It’s hard to stand out if you want to. If you’re willing to start as an ordinary employee, I can hire you. If it’s a manager, then you’ll have to give it up." She could tell Demira might truly be capable, but she was too arrogant. If her arrogance wasn’t tempered, future conflicts would be inevitable.
"But I have the ability; I believe I can handle the manager position." Demira’s face changed slightly, wanting to turn and leave, but her current desperate situation reminded her that she couldn’t afford to be arrogant.
"Miss Sheng Ning, if you hire me, it’ll definitely be worth your while."
"Are you willing to start as an ordinary employee?"
"No."
"Then please leave. If you ever change your mind and are willing to start as an ordinary employee, you can come to find me at any time."
"Goodbye!" She didn’t even have money to buy a loaf of bread now, and didn’t know how to solve her next meal, but her inherent pride made it hard to lower her stance.
"Miss Sheng Ning, that person seemed quite nice and looked well-mannered. Why didn’t you hire her? Aren’t you in urgent need of staff?" Aunt Feng asked curiously.
"I am in need of staff, and I’m willing to give her the manager position, but definitely not like this."
Lin En, with An’an and the two kids, played until the afternoon before returning, all covered in dust. The little brother and sister were exhausted from playing and fell asleep in the stroller. Aunt Feng and Sheng Ning each carried one upstairs to rest.
An’an was holding an oversized hamburger, eating along the way, "Sis, this is really delicious. It’s my first time eating it!" An’an, eating a hamburger for the first time, couldn’t praise this fast food enough, utterly enamored.
Lin En kept looking at her with a strange expression, as if what she was eating was something repulsive, wondering how she could find it so tasty.
"That’s unhealthy; you should eat less in the future."
"I know that once we return to the mainland, we won’t be able to eat it, so I want to eat more now." As she spoke, she showed the bag she was carrying to Sheng Ning, giving her a start.
A full bag stuffed with hamburgers.
"Why did you buy so many?"
"To eat!" An’an said, then took another bite, "It’s so delicious!"
"Alright, you won’t get to eat it for long anyway."
Lin En listened obediently, "Auntie, are you going back to the mainland?"
"Yes!" Sheng Ning patted his head, "Now you’re my son-in-law, would you like to come back with me?"
