C130 Recruiting Subordinates

Lin Dong was forthright and didn't conceal his identity.

He wasn't concerned that Zhao Lee might be aligned with Manager Xiao.

The way Manager Yang had just treated her made it clear that Zhao Lee wasn't one of Manager Xiao's inner circle.

Lin Dong was quite impressed with Zhao Lee.

She seemed competent in every aspect of her work.

In the service industry, excellent customer service naturally leads to a thriving business.

With the prestigious name 'Rihao' as its banner, and the promise of superior service, there was no way it could fail to be profitable.

If Zhao Lee had any sense, she would realize that her prospects with Lin Dong were far brighter than with Manager Xiao.

Zhao Lee was utterly bewildered.

She had simply wanted to perform her service job normally, never anticipating an invitation from Lin Dong.

In fact, at Auspicious Hero KTV, Manager Xiao's tight grip on power was an open secret.

Everyone was aware there was another owner behind the scenes, but under Manager Xiao's rule, Auspicious Hero was effectively his dictatorship.

Furthermore, Manager Xiao had a penchant for troubling the female staff.

The more principled the woman, the more he seemed to enjoy provoking her.

Zhao Lee was no exception with her respectable demeanor.

Her integrity was strong, and she had no interest in sordid affairs, which made her a target for Manager Xiao.

Had she complied, she might have secured a prestigious position.

However, her deeply rooted family values led her to firmly decline Manager Xiao's advances.

Zhao Lee was on an equal footing with Manager Yang.

Her resume included stints at several renowned entertainment corporations, and she had even furthered her education in the international entertainment industry, demonstrating her impressive capabilities.

Her refusal to bend to Manager Xiao's will resulted in her being demoted to a frontline position.

As one of Manager Xiao's lackeys, Manager Yang would look for any excuse to hassle her.

Today, for instance, he threatened to dock her pay, claiming she hadn't served customers adequately.

For a frontline waitress, whose earnings were already modest, such a deduction for a single argument was excessively harsh.

Zhao Lee could no longer tolerate such treatment.

She had resolved to hold out until the end of the month; once she received her paycheck, she planned to resign immediately.

Zhao Lee hadn't anticipated that Lin Dong would bring up such a matter at this moment. She was struck by an overwhelming sense of joy!

"Have you made up your mind? If you think following me isn't a sure bet, I won't pressure you. Just tell me where Manager Xiao is right now, and I'll give you 100,000!" Lin Dong's voice reached her.

He didn't sound very hopeful as he spoke; his current priority was to locate Manager Xiao, take him down, and execute a major clean-up of the top brass tonight! The offer of 100,000 was trivial compared to the necessity of removing Manager Xiao, the malignant force plotting against him.

Zhao Lee inhaled deeply. She gazed ahead and said to Lin Dong with conviction, "Manager Xiao is in the office on the top floor, but he's surrounded by many of his people. I'm afraid it won't be easy to just walk in."

"Oh, does that mean you've agreed to join forces with me?" Lin Dong asked, a smile spreading across his face.

Zhao Lee's use of "we" instead of "you" indicated she had chosen to side with Lin Dong. "Indeed, Mr. Lin, I've decided to follow in your footsteps!" Zhao Lee declared her allegiance.

Having navigated the entertainment industry, she had a keen eye for judging character. Lin Dong might have had an unassuming appearance, but his conduct, speech, and the way he carried himself convinced her of his integrity and commitment to his word. Furthermore, despite his handsome looks, Lin Dong's interactions with female staff were respectful and devoid of any inappropriate behavior. He was also the boss!

By all accounts, he was far superior to Manager Xiao!

Lin Dong glanced over at Ruobing and, seeing her nod in approval, turned back and said, "Great! Your agreement to join me is all I need. Don't worry about the rest; I've got people on it!"
