Chapter 165: Chapter 165 Let me see how good you are

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan and the others had already entered the venue.

The entire top floor of Hanjiang Pavilion had been refurbished, with numerous soldiers guarding in the middle of the venue.

They stood there like spears, setting a very solemn atmosphere for the entire venue.

Chen Xuan, Zhao Boqian, Cui Fengjiu, and the others made their way to the front row of the venue.

The venue was divided into three sections according to the ranks of seating: first, second, and third class, with Chen Xuan and his company occupying the seats in the first-class section in the front row.

Of course, there was one row in front of them, where the special-class seats were located.

"Miracle Doctor Chen, you’re here!" exclaimed Wong Tianhua as he saw Chen Xuan approaching and quickly stood up to greet him.

As a Fourth-Rank War Officer, Wong Tianhua’s seat was in the first-class section.

"Miracle Doctor Chen, this is the seat I reserved for you!"

As Wong Tianhua spoke, he attempted to direct Chen Xuan to the next seat over, which corresponded to the position indicated on the invitation handed to Chen Xuan.

Zhao Boqian, Cui Fengjiu, and the others were all taken aback. They recognized Wong Tianhua, a Fourth-Rank War Officer, one of the few in Beijiang with the qualifications to sit in the first-class seats.

Yet, to their surprise, even a personage like Wong Tianhua showed such respect for Chen Xuan!

Smiling, Chen Xuan waved his hand, "Oh, no need, I’m quite comfortable sitting here."

To tell the truth, Chen Xuan was not accustomed to such formal occasions, and sitting with the military bigwigs would make him feel even more constrained.

"Ah? Alright then," Wong Tianhua didn’t press further.

Father Wong Jiasen was also in the first-class seats, which allowed him to be close to this Miracle Doctor Chen as well.

At this moment, Chen Xuan had Zhao Boqian and Zhao Luna on his left, and Cui Fengjiu and Cui Ruyun on his right, with Wong Jiasen and Madam Wong in front, all positioned around Chen Xuan as the center.

This scene elicited gasps of astonishment from the surrounding crowd.

The fact that the Zhao Family, Wong Family, and Cui Fengjiu were all surrounding and flattering him showed that this young man was obviously not simple!

However, what was surprising was that none of the people present knew who this young man was.

At that moment, everyone began to speculate about Chen Xuan’s identity.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Chen Xuan, what are you doing here?"

Chen Xuan turned around and saw Loh Anni, hand-in-hand with a young man, standing in front of him.

Given Loh Anni’s status, she clearly had no right to attend the War King Ceremony. Obviously, this young man was her ticket in.

Chen Xuan felt a wry smile in his heart, recognizing that Loh Anni was indeed a social butterfly. The last time he saw her, she was with Wang Yukun, and now, in no time at all, she had switched to a new boyfriend.

"What, is there any rule that says I can’t be here?" Chen Xuan said indifferently.

Loh Anni snorted coldly, "Of course you shouldn’t be here, because you simply don’t deserve to be!"

"Don’t think I don’t know how you sneaked in here. First Han Jingting, now that Zheng person, Chen Xuan, oh Chen Xuan, climbing the ladder by relying on women all the way, you really do have thick skin!"

With a face full of disdain and mockery, Loh Anni clearly had never thought much of Chen Xuan, the son-in-law who had come knocking.

Chen Xuan glanced at the man beside her and said with a meaningful tone, "It seems you’re also not in a position to talk to me like that."

Unconcerned, Loh Anni clung to the man’s arm and said proudly, "It’s only natural for a woman to rely on a man, only a useless man like you would mooch off a woman!"

"And do you know who he is? Let me tell you, this gentleman here is none other than the young master of Yaocheng Corporation, one of Huai City’s top ten leading enterprises, Peng Xinlei! I warn you, you’d best watch your words!"

Peng Xinlei next to her also lifted his chin and said arrogantly, "Annie’s right, I despise men who rely on women the most. Let me tell you, keep your distance from Annie, or I swear I’ll make sure you realize just how formidable the Huicheng Corporation is!"

As the young master of Huicheng Corporation, Peng Xinlei was full of confidence in front of this pretty boy.

However, right after he finished speaking, a voice sounded indifferently.

"Is that so? Then you tell me, how impressive is your Huicheng Corporation?" Zhao Boqian stood up.

"That’s right, I want to know too!" Wong Jiasen followed, rising to his feet.

"And me!" Cui Fengjiu, sitting beside them, looked at Peng Xinlei with a smile brimming with meaning.

When Peng Xinlei saw the faces of these people, he was instantly dumbfounded.

These were the great figures of the four wealthiest clans: Zhao Boqian, Huai City’s richest man Wong Jiasen, and the underground queen of Huai City, Cui Fengjiu!

Any one of these people was countless times more powerful than their Huicheng Corporation.

Peng Xinlei dared not neglect them and hastily tried to appease them with a sheepish smile, "Zhao... Family Head Zhao, Tycoon Wong, Ninth... Ninth Elder Sister, our mere Huicheng Corporation wouldn’t dare show off in front of you. I was just talking about this kid..."

"Shut up! Do you want to see tomorrow’s sun, talking to Brother Chen like that?!" Zhao Boqian berated angrily.

Wong Jiasen’s expression was also grim, "That’s right, Miracle Doctor Chen is our benefactor. Showing disrespect to Miracle Doctor Chen is showing disrespect to us! Keep talking nonsense, and we won’t be polite to you!"

Cui Fengjiu smiled lightly, "It seems that your Huicheng Corporation might not live to see the day I take action."

Hearing these words, Peng Xinlei’s legs went weak with fear.

He could never have dreamed that the top figures of Huai City like Wong Jiasen, Cui Fengjiu, and Zhao Boqian would all stand with this pretty boy named Chen Xuan!

Even if Peng Xinlei was naive, he now understood that this Chen Xuan was definitely not as simple as Loh Anni had said!

This was certainly a true heavyweight!

Thud!

Peng Xinlei didn’t say another word and directly knelt on the ground.

"Family Head Zhao, Tycoon Wong, Ninth Sister, I failed to recognize a great person earlier. I won’t dare again, please spare our Huicheng Corporation!"

Any one of these people could easily doom Huicheng Corporation, so compared to his own face, Peng Xinlei naturally wanted to protect his family’s billions in assets even more.

Cui Fengjiu snorted coldly and smiled benevolently, "You should be more humble in the future, or else, you might find yourself dead without a place to be buried one of these days!"

Peng Xinlei immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Ninth... Ninth Sister’s lesson is well taken!"

"Get out!"

Peng Xinlei fled as if he had been granted amnesty, scurrying out of the venue.

He couldn’t even muster the courage to attend the ceremony of the War King—let alone care about Loh Anni anymore!

"Hey, Young Master Peng?"

Loh Anni tried to stop him, but Peng Xinlei didn’t pay her any attention, vanishing from sight as he fled for his life.

"It seems the men you find are not so reliable, hm?" Chen Xuan sneered.

"You..." Loh Anni was furious, "We’ll see about that!"

Loh Anni stomped her foot and left, but she didn’t leave the venue. Instead, she sat down in a nearby first-class seat.

After finally making her way into such an upscale place, she was obviously not going to leave so easily.

"Do you want me to throw her out?" Cui Fengjiu asked.

Chen Xuan smiled lightly, "No need, she wants to watch, let her understand everything today!"
