C117 – The Might of a Grandmaster

“Thank you for your kind words, Miss Xue, but I’m afraid I’m not interested. Sorry!”

Jiang Hao’s firm rejection left his parents, Jiang’s father and Jiang’s mother, in shock. Yet, they didn’t intervene, ready to support their son’s decision.

Jiang Zixuan was dumbfounded – her brother had actually turned down the offer!

Xia Qin, equally taken aback, had a moment of realization. It dawned on her,

“Mr. Jiang didn’t bat an eye at rejecting fifty million. It’s no wonder he wasn’t swayed by a mere million yuan thank-you gift!”

But what truly stunned everyone was what happened next. Xue Zixi stood up solemnly, bowed deeply to Jiang Hao, and offered a sincere apology.

“I apologize, Grandmaster Jiang, for my presumption!”

“The fifty million just now will serve as compensation for my impertinence. I am prepared to offer an additional one hundred million yuan annually, plus a three percent stake in Heavenly-Mansion Tavern, in hopes that Grandmaster Jiang will reconsider joining us.

Moreover, we promise not to disturb Grandmaster Jiang for trivial matters.”

Xue Zixi’s astonishing offer and the generous terms she proposed left everyone speechless.

Fifty million just for an apology?

Setting aside the annual hundred million, a three percent share in Heavenly-Mansion Tavern translates to an astronomical sum!

In truth, to secure the young Grandmaster Jiang Hao’s participation, Xue Zixi was willing to match the compensation of the seasoned Grandmaster at Heavenly-Mansion Tavern.

Despite Jiang Hao having yet to prove himself, Xue Zixi was taking a significant risk with such a substantial offer.

At that point, all eyes were on Jiang Hao, filled with astonishment.

Jiang Hao had at last grasped the concept of a Grandmaster!

However, he wasn’t an authentic Grandmaster; he had merely leveraged his God Chef skill to mimic the abilities akin to those of a culinary Grandmaster!

This revelation once again underscored the system’s incredible power to him!

Keep in mind, his God Chef skill was merely at level two.

If a level two God Chef skill equated to a Grandmaster’s culinary prowess, what then of level three? Or level four?

“Hao, when did you achieve Grandmaster status?”

Jiang’s mother couldn’t contain her curiosity.

Jiang Hao remained unfazed and replied nonchalantly,

“It happened naturally as I cooked. It didn’t seem like a big deal, so I didn’t mention it to you all.”

After Jiang Hao’s explanation, the room fell into a stunned silence.

Achieving Grandmaster status just by cooking?

With so many chefs in China, why were there only four recognized Grandmasters?

And he thought becoming a Grandmaster wasn’t a big deal?

Then what, indeed, would be considered a big deal?
