Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Guests from the Imperial Capital
The room full of Dongshen Financial Group presidents all looked up.
"Sir, you want to buy a pair of high heels?"
Qin Tianxuan shook his head. "It’s something Weiwei needs. A gift for someone! Can you get it done?"
Of course, they could.
It was far too simple.
Among the twelve presidents, a beautiful woman specializing in foreign luxury goods looked up. "Sir, that’s a minor brand. Your wife deserves something better!"
The woman was a stunningly beautiful woman of mixed heritage, but her inclusion among the twelve presidents of the Dongshen Financial Group meant her abilities were beyond question.
Qin Tianxuan said, "Hm, you’re Alice, the one in charge of commerce and luxury goods?"
The mixed-heritage president was thrilled. "Yes, Sir! Leave the gift for your wife to me!"
Qin Tianxuan nodded. "Alright."
Alice snapped to attention, determined to handle this matter perfectly.
She immediately suggested, "Aurank high heels are terrible. They’re completely beneath your wife’s station. I’ll help her choose a much better pair, something that won’t cause her any embarrassment!"
Qin Tianxuan was nonchalant. "Sure. When it’s ready, send it directly to Teacher Wang at Tianjiao Primary School."
After speaking, he sent Weiwei a text: I’ve taken care of the gift!
Meanwhile, the mixed-heritage president, Alice, immediately ordered her subordinates to find a better gift.
She was in charge of countless luxury brands. After just one order, her subordinates began calling in one by one.
A variety of gifts were selected.
From this batch of priceless gifts, Alice finally chose a pair of "Magic Queen Diamond High Heels"!
This was a pair of high heels that looked very understated, even a little drab and dark.
In reality, they were a top-tier fashion piece, crafted with a special technique and adorned with the purest black diamonds.
They retailed for over six million and were a limited global edition!
The gift was immediately wrapped and sent to Teacher Wang at the school.
Seeing that the matter was more or less settled, Qin Tianxuan got up to leave, but his Personal Guard came in to report, "Sir, people from the Imperial Capital are here. They wish to see you immediately!"
It was a sizable group from the Imperial Capital.
They included a representative for the Battle Department’s Military God, a representative for the Celestial Hall’s Elders, the chairman of the Da Xia General Commerce Association, and the head of the banking world’s Golden Sparrow Silver Alliance.
They were all waiting anxiously in the conference room.
Qin Tianxuan frowned. ’What are they doing here at a time like this?’
He went straight to the conference room. The Battle Department representative immediately saluted. "Sir, the Northern Domain is in peril! You must go and take control of the situation as soon as possible!"
Qin Tianxuan’s eyes flashed. "The Celestial Demons have invaded?"
The representative of the Celestial Hall Elders was on the verge of kneeling. "The defensive line is about to collapse! The front can’t even hold for another month! That bastard Ye Tianlong has been concealing battle reports, and now he’s refusing to relinquish his authority!"
Qin Tianxuan said coldly, "Then how do you plan to handle it?"
The group facing him was extremely embarrassed. "We can’t handle it! We can only rely on you!"
Ye Tianlong in the Northern Domain was now acting recklessly, declaring he wanted a decisive battle with the Celestial Demons. It was a suicide mission; he had never won a single battle against them.
Someone had to go to the Northern Domain, take down Ye Tianlong first, and then stabilize the situation.
That was why these bigwigs from the Imperial Capital were so desperate, all coming to beg Qin Tianxuan to come out of retirement.
Qin Tianxuan looked at the commerce association representatives behind the others. "And what are they here for?"
The head of the Golden Sparrow Silver Alliance scrambled over, grabbed his hand, and started crying. "Our Silver Alliance’s assets in the Northern Domain have been targeted by the Celestial Demons! The Celestial Demons have also captured more than thirty of our people as hostages! Sir, please, you must act! That’s more than thirty families!"
’Has it really gotten this serious?’
Qin Tianxuan mused, "Wait for two days. I’ll contact the front right now and check the specific battle situation."
These people from the Imperial Capital were unwilling to leave, so they simply decided to camp out in the headquarters building.
As long as Qin Tianxuan would come out of retirement, they were willing to do anything.
Qin Tianxuan turned off his phone and decided to hold a meeting on the spot. They had to come up with a plan as quickly as possible.
Meanwhile, things were a complete mess for Han Biwei, too.
While she was still trying to figure out how to raise the money for the gift, Teacher Wang called her excitedly to say that Qin Tianxuan had already taken care of it.
Shocked, Han Biwei rushed back to Teacher Wang’s place. Staring at the gift box, she hurriedly called Qin Tianxuan to ask about it.
The call wouldn’t go through.
And the parent-teacher committee started pressuring her again.
"We’ve already set up Teacher Chen’s birthday banquet at the Wanxi Hotel. Han Biwei, if you don’t bring the gift within half an hour, you know the consequences!"
Looking at the aggressive message, a wave of anger washed over Han Biwei.
Left with no other choice, she could only take the gift and head to the hotel.
Weiwei’s mind was a mess. She didn’t even have time to see what was in the gift box, but for some reason, she still had a sliver of faith in Qin Tianxuan.
Inside the Wanxi Hotel, the VIP private room was already piled high with other small gifts.
There was also a large, seven-layer cake!
The members of the honors class’s parent-teacher committee were all making small talk and chatting.
When Han Biwei walked in carrying the gift box, they all froze.
"Well, well, impressive. You actually managed to buy the gift?" The woman dressed in designer brands and gaudy clothes was none other than Chairman Zhang. She stared at Han Biwei in disbelief.
The other two vice-chairmen also frowned.
Han Biwei put down the gift box. Footsteps sounded from behind her—Teacher Chen had arrived.
She was a middle-aged woman, not yet forty, with narrow eyes that made her look very stern.
As soon as she entered, the members of the parent-teacher committee rushed to greet her.
The scene became lively. Only Han Biwei stood in the corner, growing more and more disgusted by the hypocritical display.
"Teacher Chen, you’ve worked so hard recently! Our child’s grades have improved so much, it’s all thanks to you!"
"Today is your birthday, Teacher Chen, so we’ve prepared a little something for you. It’s just a small token of our appreciation."
Ms. Zhang started things off with a cheerful smile, and the others all presented their gifts.
That Teacher Chen accepted every single gift, all while saying things like, "You’re too kind, educating your children is my duty..."
Ms. Zhang and the two vice-chairmen then looked at Han Biwei. "Bring the gift over! Those shoes we picked out for Teacher Chen—you’d better not have gotten the wrong ones!"
