Lin Wan's breath caught in her throat as she listened to Chen Mo's extremely domineering and tempting promise.

Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Chen Mo, her heart pounding wildly, and the proud silhouette of her chest heaved violently.

Ten times the annual salary, core stock options, financial freedom... each of these words precisely hits the mark on her ambition hidden beneath the halo of a prestigious university.

After a full half minute, Lin Wan forced down her inner turmoil, a hint of difficulty appearing on her beautiful face. She spoke softly, "President Chen, to be honest, I'm very tempted. But… I was just assigned by the head office to a county branch for 'prestige training,' and I have a top-level talent development contract. If I were to resign now, the bank's legal department would face significant resistance, and President Sun probably wouldn't let me go easily. The process would take at least two or three months to complete…"

"Resistance? There is no such thing as resistance for me."

Chen Mo chuckled casually.

In front of Lin Wan, he took out his phone and dialed the private number of Sun Jian, the head of the county branch of Huaguo Bank.

As soon as the call connected, before Sun Jian could even exchange pleasantries, Chen Mo said, "President Sun, I've taken a liking to Lin Wan. I want her to resign and start working for me full-time tomorrow."

"What?!" President Sun Jian on the other end of the phone was startled, but quickly returned to normal.

Are you kidding me? This is a living god of wealth who just deposited over 400 million yuan in pure cash, alarming the head office!

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen! I'll personally approve Lin Wan's resignation procedures tonight through the head office's fast track! All contract breach penalties will be borne by our branch!" Sun Jian assured him on the phone, his tone extremely obsequious. "Tomorrow morning, I'll immediately arrange for our branch's most senior senior account manager to lead a team as the new contact person. It won't take up a single second of your time!"

"A new contact person is fine, but remember, for all my private banking asset allocation and corporate business, I will only recognize Lin Wan as the contact person from now on," Chen Mo added casually.

"Understood! Completely understood! From now on, Ms. Lin Wan will be our bank's highest-level strategic partner, and we will fully cooperate with all her arrangements!"

Sun Jian readily agreed, but inwardly he felt a pang of regret. He had originally planned to use some methods to win Lin Wan over.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo tossed it onto the table, looked at the dumbfounded Lin Wan across from him, and shrugged: "See, the resistance is gone."

Lin Wan stared blankly at Chen Mo, the shock she felt was beyond words.

What seemed like an insurmountable mountain to these employees within the system—a head office contract and an insurmountable branch manager level—was readily handed over by Chen Mo with nothing more than a few dozen seconds of phone conversation, leaving them deeply grateful.

Is this the terrifying privilege of capital?

At this moment, the last trace of composure in Lin Wan's eyes completely collapsed.

"Mr. Chen, starting tomorrow, Lin Wan's life belongs to you." Lin Wan picked up her wine glass, looking at him with intensely passionate eyes, and drank it all in one gulp.

"very good."

Chen Mo nodded in satisfaction: "Tomorrow morning, you need to work with the bank's new contact person as quickly as possible to get Xingchen Technology's business license approved and complete the 40 million yuan investment agreement with De'er Technology."

"After that, go to the Guanlan Yujing villa area in the county town, which has just been developed and is also the most expensive, and buy the largest detached villa to temporarily serve as our Xingchen Technology office park."

Chen Mo looked at her, his tone calm: "With the new company established, you will be the general manager of Xingchen Technology. The tentative annual salary is 800,000 yuan. The company doesn't need too many people in the initial stage. You will first look for and recruit about five people locally for administration, legal affairs, and finance to set up the company's daily operations. As for Xingchen Technology's next steps, wait for my instructions."

"Tomorrow morning, in addition to the 40 million investment, I will transfer an extra 10 million into Xingchen Technology's corporate account. This will be used to purchase villa land, hire staff, and cover the company's daily operations."

Upon hearing about the annual salary of 80 and the daily expenses of 1000 million that he could casually spend, Lin Wan felt dizzy for a moment.

Keep in mind that she is currently only earning 4 yuan a month. Even though Huaguo Bank's compensation is top-notch among its peers, after deducting various subsidies, she can only earn a maximum of 6 to 7 yuan a year, and that is assuming that she fully meets the performance targets.

And now, a single sentence from this young man across the street has increased her annual salary by more than ten times!

They even handed over the control of ten million yuan in funds to her without reservation!

Even though she was a master's graduate who was used to the flow of digital data in the financial industry, she was still a little overwhelmed by the immense sense of happiness.

"What? You think it's not enough?" Chen Mo raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a half-smile when he saw her standing there in a daze.

"No...no!" Lin Wan waved her hand in a flustered manner. Her usual composure in the workplace completely crumbled at this moment, revealing a hint of the awkwardness of a young girl. "President Chen, this...this is too much. I'm afraid my current qualifications are not worthy of this number you've given me."

"I trust you."

Chen Mo picked up his teacup and took a sip, his gaze falling on her chest, which was rising and falling slightly with excitement: "I'm giving you not only a high salary, but also pressure. I want Xingchen Technology to become formalized in the shortest possible time and to take control of De'er Technology's shares. This is just the first step. Grow as quickly as possible, and there will only be more to come."

Hearing this, Lin Wan took a deep breath, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.

She looked at Chen Mo's overly youthful profile, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.

This was the biggest leap in her life.

If she had missed this young man, she might have spent her entire life working within the banking system, scheming and fighting for a position as a deputy branch manager.

"Mr. Chen, don't worry."

Lin Wan downed the rest of the red wine in her glass in one gulp, a blush rising on her pretty face.

She walked to Chen Mo's side, pouring wine with even greater respect than before: "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, I will be waiting at the bank to get Xingchen Technology's corporate account settled. Within a week, I will ensure that the detached villa in Guanlan Yujing, as well as the core administrative and legal team, are all in place."

"Yes, I have to go back to school tomorrow. If anything comes up, just call me or let me know via WeChat." Chen Mo put down his knife and fork and elegantly wiped his mouth.

"Okay, Mr. Chen," Lin Wan replied quickly.

By the time dinner ended, it was already 8:30 p.m.

The nights in this small county town are not as brightly lit as in big cities, and the number of pedestrians on the streets is gradually decreasing.

Lin Wan followed Chen Mo out of the restaurant. The autumn night wind blew and sobered her up a bit, but looking at the tall and straight back of the young man in front of her, the passion in her heart not only did not die down, but burned even more fiercely.

The Mercedes-Benz S-Class drove smoothly back on the road once again.

Now that she no longer had to worry about the bank's rules and regulations, Lin Wan's mindset had completely changed in front of Chen Mo in the passenger seat.

While intently watching the road ahead, she softly reported the details: "Mr. Chen, regarding Guanlan Yujing, I know the sales manager. As far as I know, there's a detached villa overlooking the lake that's been vacant. It's fully furnished with a private garden and was originally reserved by the developer for their own use. After the license is issued tomorrow, I'll go directly there and acquire it."

"Sure, you can handle it." Chen Mo leaned against the car window with one hand, looking at the old street scenes rushing past outside, his tone casual. "Also, those five new recruits need to have clean backgrounds. You can use your connections at the university to find a few capable juniors or seniors without connections. People from smaller towns tend to be simpler-minded and easier to use."

"Understood." Lin Wan secretly admired Chen Mo's shrewdness in using people, which was unlike that of a high school student.

The car soon stopped again at the entrance of the township health center's staff quarters.

"Mr. Chen, we've arrived." Lin Wan unbuckled her seatbelt, turned to the side, and quietly looked at Chen Mo with her beautiful eyes.

"Starting tomorrow, I'll be working hard for Manager Lin."

Chen Mo smiled gently at her, said nothing more, opened the car door, slung his backpack over one shoulder, and stepped out of the car with remarkable agility.

Watching the boy's figure gradually disappear into the shadows, Lin Wan leaned back in the leather seat and sat alone in the carriage for a long time.

The scorching heat from Chen Mo's palm seemed to still linger on his wrist when he braked suddenly that afternoon.

She looked at the scattered documents on the center console, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
