Chapter 157: Chapter 157: I Really Don’t Need This Gift

"Annie, what’s wrong, what happened?"

Sitting on the couch watching TV, Han Jingting heard the commotion from Loh Anni and asked with curiosity.

"It’s nothing, just got rejected by a company," Loh Anni naturally wouldn’t admit that her dream of joining a wealthy family had been crushed.

Half-jokingly, Han Jingting said, "With your capabilities, companies in Huai City should be at your beck and call. Which company was so blind to dare reject someone as outstanding as you?"

"Speaking of this company, it has some connections with your Han Corporation, actually—it’s Yaowang Corporation."

"Yaowang Corporation!"

The name immediately piqued Han Jingting’s interest, after all, her ability to retake her position as the president of Han Corporation was all thanks to the ambiguous support from Yaowang Corporation.

Therefore, any news about Yaowang Corporation now made Han Jingting extremely sensitive.

And what Loh Anni said next further heightened Han Jingting’s curiosity to the max.

"By the way, Jingting, guess who I saw today at Yaowang Corporation?"

"Who?"

"Your good-for-nothing husband!"

"Chen Xuan?" Han Jingting was quite surprised, "What was he doing there?"

"You don’t know? He’s trying to be the personal driver for the president of Yaowang Corporation!"

Han Jingting was taken aback.

For a moment, a possibility crossed her mind. Could it be that Chen Xuan was behind Yaowang Corporation’s fabrication of that so-called secret investment lie to help her? And the contract she obtained from Yaowang Corporation before, could it indeed be Chen Xuan’s doing?

But, at best, he was merely a driver for the president. Could he really have that much influence?

Han Jingting felt as if, whenever she thought about Chen Xuan, she was wandering in a fog.

The truth seemed close to her, yet she couldn’t grasp it no matter what.

Then, Han Jingting thought of something, "So your rejection by Yaowang Corporation today, it wouldn’t have anything to do with Chen Xuan, would it?"

Before Han Jingting could finish, Loh Anni laughed out loud, "What are you thinking? Even if that loser is capable, he’s just a small-time driver. The grand president of Yaowang Corporation, with a fortune of billions, how could he possibly listen to some minor driver!"

"Yeah, right," said Han Jingting, forcing a laugh.

Han Jingting also felt that she had indeed thought too much, as she seemed to have overestimated Chen Xuan.

"Let’s not talk about that loser anymore. I didn’t ask you yet, why did you come back so late today, don’t tell me you went to a hotel with that guy again?"

Loh Anni raised an eyebrow, her face full of a mischievous smile, clearly having heard some gossip from Ding Lijuan.

Han Jingting was speechless, "What are you talking about? My coming home late today was entirely for the War King Ceremony!"

"The War King Ceremony?"

Han Jingting nodded, "You know, the current War King Ceremony is a once-in-a-century event in the Liangjiang region. Every family considers it an honor to attend the War King Ceremony, and it’s also a great opportunity to expand one’s network."

"It’s just that, despite the Han Corporation applying many times, we haven’t received any response from the organizers..."

Loh Anni smiled faintly, "I think it’s normal not to get a response. To be honest, the Han Family really isn’t quite at that level to participate in the War King Ceremony."

Han Jingting sighed, "I know. But Grandma has always been strong-willed, insisting on attending this War King Ceremony at all costs. She says she won’t rest in peace otherwise. As I’ve just taken over the position of president, the responsibility has fallen onto my shoulders."

Loh Anni patted Han Jingting’s shoulder, "You really have it tough. How about this, I know quite a few people, let me help you think of a solution."

"Really?" Han Jingting was overjoyed, "Annie, you’re really the best!"

Loh Anni had a proud expression on her face, "Who else could I be if not your best sister friend!"

"Exactly, you are indeed my best sister!" Han Jingting looked at her with adoration.

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan, after finishing his washing up, was ready to go to sleep when his phone rang.

It was a call from Wong Tianhua.

Ever since Chen Xuan had cured Wong Jiasen of the crane’s crest poison, this was the first time Wong Tianhua had called.

"Fourth-Rank War Officer Wong, what can I do for you so late at night?"

"Miracle Doctor Chen, you’re too polite, just call me Tianhua." Wong Tianhua was very apprehensive.

"I owe you a great deal for your help the last time. I have a gift for you, Miracle Doctor Chen, and was wondering if you would have the time to receive it personally?"

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "As a practitioner of medicine, it’s my duty to save people. There’s really no need for a gift."

Wong Tianhua quickly explained, "Please don’t get me wrong, Miracle Doctor Chen. This gift is not something expensive, but it’s still a priceless treasure that you might need!"

"Not expensive, yet a priceless treasure?" That piqued Chen Xuan’s interest.

"What exactly are you talking about?"

Wong Tianhua did not hold back and directly said, "You must have heard of the upcoming War King Ceremony. The gift I want to give you is a special seat at the War King Ceremony!"

Wong Tianhua spoke these words with great confidence.

After all, the War King Ceremony was a prestigious event that happened once every hundred years in the Liangjiang region. Even a regular third-class seat was being scalped for millions, and they were incredibly scarce!

The special seat that Wong Tianhua had was so exclusive that money couldn’t buy it!

Even Wong Tianhua, despite bearing the title of Fourth-Rank War Officer and son of the wealthiest family, had to expend a tremendous amount of effort, pulling numerous strings, to get his hands on that special invitation!

However, if he could express his gratitude to Divine Doctor Chen and foster good relations using this special invitation, Wong Tianhua believed it would all be worth it.

Yet, upon hearing Wong Tianhua’s words, Chen Xuan was somewhat bemused.

A special seat at the War King Ceremony?

What a joke, Zheng Yunfeng himself had become the War King through his own efforts, and it wasn’t as if I needed to occupy any special seat—I could even sit directly onstage, and I doubt anyone would object.

"Tianhua, I appreciate the kind gesture from you and your father, but I probably really don’t need this invitation..." Chen Xuan tried to be as gentle as possible.

Still, Wong Tianhua was nearly shocked to the core.

"What, you... you don’t need it?"

Wong Tianhua was stunned.

He thought this special seat invitation would be the most suitable gift for Divine Doctor Chen, but to his surprise, the other party was utterly disinterested. This left Wong Tianhua feeling quite dejected.

"All right then. I won’t bother you any further, Divine Doctor Chen." Wong Tianhua hung up the phone awkwardly.

Looking at the disconnected call, Chen Xuan shook his head with a wry smile.

He didn’t want to snub somebody’s face, but he genuinely didn’t need that thing.
