134: It’s so fucking awesome!
As his thoughts raced, Xia Changlin quickly came up with an idea.
As the esteemed disciple of the Divine Doctor Jue Jue Zi, Chen Hao certainly couldn't be offended; he even needed to be drawn in as much as possible.
After all, life is fleeting, a mere hundred years; who can guarantee a lifetime free of illness and disaster?
Xia Changlin himself had once walked the line between life and death and had personally witnessed the Divine Doctor Jue Jue Zi's miraculous medical skills that could turn decay into wonder, making him even more aware of how precious a divine doctor was.
If it hadn't been for the Divine Doctor Jue Jue Zi's intervention back then, he would have long since passed away and wouldn't have been able to build the Xia Family's current vast foundation.
The debt of gratitude definitely needed to be repaid; Xia Changlin wasn't the type of person to forget kindness.
Therefore, after much deliberation, Xia Changlin decided to let Chen Hao and his granddaughter spend some time together first.
If their personalities didn't match, he would then privately give Chen Hao a sum of money to settle the old debt of gratitude.
Of course, there was an art to this matter.
First, he couldn't immediately tell his granddaughter about the engagement; he needed to proceed slowly and not rush things.
Having made up his mind, Xia Changlin glanced at Chen Hao and smiled.
“Since you are the esteemed disciple of the Divine Doctor Jue Jue Zi, please come in…”
After speaking, Xia Changlin looked at the few security guards lying on the ground and instructed the butler beside him.
“Send them to the hospital, give each twenty thousand in bonuses, and double their future salaries.”
No matter what, these security guards were injured while protecting the house, so he still needed to show them some consideration.
Fortunately, by this time, all the guests had already entered the manor, and the events at the entrance hadn't attracted anyone else's attention.
These security guards would naturally keep quiet after receiving the money.
“Yes, Family Head.”
The butler acknowledged the order, turned and left, and quickly found a few family servants to carry all the injured security guards into the car.
Xia Changlin, meanwhile, led Chen Hao back into the manor.
Upon entering the Xia Family Manor, Chen Hao was like Liu Grandma entering the Grand View Garden, constantly looking left and right, exclaiming in wonder, finding everything astonishing.
After all, although Chen Hao possessed considerable cultivation and medical skills, and also had many connections left behind by his master.
However, he had only just come down from the mountain and hadn't seen much of the world.
“Later, you go and change your clothes first, and then I’ll introduce Xia Qingge to you.”
“Remember, don’t directly mention the engagement.”
Xia Changlin instructed Chen Hao, then casually summoned a servant, telling him to take Chen Hao to change his clothes, while he himself left alone.
Although Chen Hao held a significant position in Xia Changlin's heart, he was still not as important as Jiang Che.
Being old and shrewd, Xia Changlin naturally knew the priorities and understood who he should first win over and flatter; he dared not leave Jiang Che waiting for too long.
………………
Inside the main hall, various celebrities gathered, clinking glasses, chatting and laughing.
Jiang Che was arranged by Xia Changlin in the seat of honor, surrounded by Xia Tianhai, as well as some high-ranking members of the Xia Family and important figures who came to attend the banquet.
After everyone presented their gifts, the banquet officially began.
Xia Changlin first walked onto the stage and exchanged pleasantries with the many guests.
Under everyone's gaze, Xia Qingge, in splendid attire, appeared and walked onto the stage, giving a sweet smile, expressing gratitude to the various celebrities who came to attend the banquet, her demeanor poised and elegant, fully displaying the grace of a young lady from a prominent family, generous and natural.
Upon seeing Xia Qingge's appearance, the eyes of the group of beasts below the stage instantly straightened.
After all, there were quite a few rich second-generation heirs attending Xia Qingge's birthday banquet this time, and many had long admired and coveted this young lady of the Xia Family.
Among them, the gazes of Lin Tian, Luo Chen, and Chen Hao were the most fervent, each with their own intentions, all hoping to make a grand showing at this banquet and win Xia Qingge's favor.
“Goodness!”
“She looks even more beautiful in person than in photos!”
“She’s truly captivating!”
“Old man, your eyesight is indeed sharp, hehehe…”
Upon seeing Xia Qingge appear, Chen Hao's eyes instantly lit up, his gaze unwilling to move for a moment, he swallowed with some difficulty, and instantly felt that the chicken leg in his hand was no longer appealing.
Chen Hao felt that as long as he could keep admiring the peerless beauty of his fiancée, he would already be completely full.
The saying that beauty is a feast for the eyes probably meant something like this, right?
Feeling the intensely hot gazes of the young masters around him, Chen Hao sneered, a hint of smugness rising in his heart.
What if they coveted her?
Only he was Xia Qingge's rightful fiancé!
The first time Chen Hao saw Xia Qingge, he even thought about how many children they would have, what their names would be, and where they would be buried together.
In his imagination, he had already grown old with Xia Qingge, spending dozens of springs and autumns together.
“Cough cough…”
Chen Hao lightly coughed twice, took a tissue to wipe the oil from the corners of his mouth, and after getting up from his seat, walked with immense confidence towards Xia Qingge.
Move aside, he was about to show off!
Chen Hao did not follow Xia Changlin's instructions to change clothes, still dressed in his short-sleeved shirt and ripped jeans.
Although he had no experience with flirting, Chen Hao had plenty of theoretical knowledge.
Back when the old man hadn't passed away, he had also taught him many tips on how to pick up girls, and many tricks for showing off, slapping faces, and acting weak to prey on others.
Therefore, Chen Hao deliberately wore shabby clothes to attend the banquet.
First, he would leave a bad impression on Xia Qingge, then through various means, he would reverse his image to achieve a stunning effect, making Xia Qingge look at him with new eyes and slowly fall for him.
Although he had never actually put this into practice before, Chen Hao was incredibly confident.
How could the flirting experience taught by Master Jue Jue Zi be false?
Seeing Chen Hao walk with such confident strides towards the main seats, the surrounding guests began to whisper and chatter.
“Who is this guy, why is he dressed so shabbily to attend the Xia Family’s banquet?”
“I don’t know, could he be a lunatic who escaped from some mental hospital?!”
“This guy, why is he heading towards Miss Xia?”
Chen Hao's actions also caught the attention of Luo Chen and Lin Tian.
Lin Tian frowned, and for some reason, seeing this shabbily dressed guy, Chen Hao, appear, he always felt that something bad was about to happen…
There was no premonition, it was just an instinctive feeling.
After some consideration, Lin Tian chose to wait and see.
If Chen Hao really did something unbelievable, wouldn't it make it easier for him to make his grand entrance?
