Chapter 12 Selected By The Emperor's Merchants Association!
- The following morning,
- Han Feng escorted Su Yingxue to the Emperor's Guild.
- This venue was specifically designated for the Emperor's Merchants Association, but it was not built by them alone. It was a collaborative effort funded and constructed by numerous influential and powerful families in Jiang City, as a demonstration of their sincerity towards the Emperor's Merchants Association.
- Today, the membership quota for the Emperor's Merchants Association was going to be announced. As a result, there was already a crowd of people gathered outside the guild. Those who received invitations from the Emperor's Merchants Association were either wealthy or noble.
- Upon arriving, Su Yingxue felt a sense of nervousness.
- Han Feng held her hand, gradually calming her down.
- When Su Yingxue handed over the two invitation letters, the receptionist at the door was shocked and quickly bowed.
- "Please, come in!"
- Inside the hall, there was not a single empty seat.
- The seating arrangement was well-organized.
- Those seated in the front row were undoubtedly esteemed figures like Qin Burang, most of whom hailed from top-tier wealthy families.
- The second row consisted of individuals from second-rate wealthy families, and so on.
- "Han Feng, should we... sit in the back row?" Su Yingxue still felt a bit apprehensive, as the invitation letter did not specify the seat number.
- "Let's go to the front!" Han Feng once again held Su Yingxue's hand and walked towards the front row.
- Su Yingxue was completely stunned and had no opportunity to refuse.
- The Su family was already inside, and they couldn't help but feel envious and jealous when they saw the grandeur of other wealthy families.
- "Why hasn't Hu Shao arrived? Could he have angered someone?"
- "It's all Su Yingxue's fault. If she had agreed to marry Hu Shao, our Su family would have undoubtedly been the most prominent figure at this press conference."
- People were discussing, and in their words, Su Yingxue was being made the scapegoat for the entire Su family.
- Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
- "Could something major have happened to the Hu family? The news reported that Hu Corporation went bankrupt yesterday, and Hu Shao was even thrown out onto the streets, suspected of being paralyzed from the waist down!"
- "What?" Bai Mucity quickly took out his phone and, after reading the news, sneered, "I know this media outlet, they are simply desperate for attention. They dare to publish any gossip and rumors. But this time, they might have gone too far. Hu Wusheng will definitely hold them accountable."
- "That's right, this content is clearly unreliable. Behind Hu Wusheng, there are a hundred martial saints. Who would dare to provoke the current Hu family with such audacity?"
- At that moment, they suddenly noticed Han Feng and Su Yingxue not far away.
- "Madam, look quickly, Su Yingxue and Han Feng are here too!"
- "They have the audacity to even walk to the front row and show no intention of stopping!"
- "Do they intend to bring shame upon the Su family? They make me sick!"
- Naturally, Madam Su's face turned pale with anger, trembling all over. She wished she could immediately call the Su family members and throw Han Feng and Su Yingxue out of the Emperor's Club like garbage.
- Under the watchful eyes of everyone,
- Han Feng held the panicked Su Yingxue's hand and walked past the first row, and then...
- In front of the first row, there were two empty seats.
- Finally, the couple sat in those two seats.
- The most prominent position in the entire venue!
- "They're insane, absolutely insane!"
- "I thought those two seats were specifically reserved for Hu Wusheng by the Emperor's Club. I can't believe Han Feng and Su Yingxue took them?!"
- "Just wait, when the representatives from the Emperor's Club appear, they will definitely kick Han Feng and Su Yingxue out!"
- Although Su Yingxue knew she had secured a spot, she still felt a bit nervous under the scrutiny of so many eyes.
- She didn't expect Han Feng to be so bold, bringing her to sit in a position even closer to the front row.
- Soon, the representatives from the Emperor's Club appeared, and the entire venue fell silent.
- Yu Menghu stepped onto the stage with confident strides and introduced himself in a powerful and resonant voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Yu Menghu, the President of the Emperor's Club. It is a pleasure to meet all of you!"
- What?
- This is the President of the Emperor's Club?
- Everyone was astonished by Yu Menghu's young age, but immediately showed their respect, and thunderous applause filled the venue.
- However, people were also puzzled.
- Standing on the stage, Yu Menghu could clearly see Han Feng and Su Yingxue below, so why didn't he kick them out and instead acted as if he hadn't noticed them?
- Yu Menghu raised his hands, signaling for silence throughout the venue.
- "I believe you have all been waiting here for a long time. Now, I will announce the membership quota for the Emperor's Club this time."
- As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's attention was immediately captivated, and they no longer cared about Han Feng and the others. After all, they had come here today for this membership quota.
- Madam Su sat in the back row, clutching her heart, feeling heartbroken once again.
- "It's all Su Yingxue's fault. If she had agreed to Hu Shao's conditions, we would have secured this membership quota today!"
- "The most infuriating thing is that she obtained a forged document yesterday, which is simply an insult to our intelligence!"
- The Su family was furious.
- Amidst the various gazes in the room, Yu Menghu had a serious expression as he announced, "I now solemnly declare that the selected member of the Emperor's Chamber of Commerce is..."
- "Miss Su Yingxue!"
- Boom!
- Yu Menghu's words were like a thunderbolt, shattering everyone's eardrums and leaving the entire room dumbfounded.
- Wha...what?
- The only spot in the Emperor's Chamber of Commerce in Jiang City this year was truly given to Su Yingxue?
- As the esteemed president of the Emperor's Chamber of Commerce, Yu Menghu wouldn't joke about such a serious matter, would he?
- Even though Su Yingxue already knew the result, her chest tightened, and her heart skipped a beat.
- The Su family members were initially shocked and dumbfounded, but then they became ecstatic.
- "So, the document that Su Yingxue brought back is genuine!"
- "It must be Hu Shao! I knew it, how could Hu Shao easily give up!"
- "Hu Shao truly loves Yingxue. Even if he angered her, he still fought for this spot in the Emperor's Chamber of Commerce for her."
- "This time, when she goes back, Yingxue must get married, even if she doesn't want to. We can't let Hu Shao's heart grow cold!"
- Filled with gratitude, Su Madam couldn't help but burst into laughter.
- They had given up hope, but they didn't expect the Su family to ultimately secure the spot.
- For the Su family, this stroke of luck was enormous!
- As for Yu Menghu's statement that the spot was for Su Yingxue and not the Su family, they simply disregarded it.
- In their eyes, Su Yingxue was an integral part of the Su family.
- The press conference came to an end.
- As soon as Su Madam stepped out of the Emperor's Chamber of Commerce, she hurriedly called Hu Xiaoyun to express her gratitude.
- The call connected.
- Su Madam smiled and said, "Hu Shao! Thanks to you, the Su family was able to secure a spot in the Emperor's Chamber of Commerce! Don't worry, this time we will definitely ensure that Yingxue divorces that useless Han Feng and marries someone like you, a remarkable man."
- On the other end of the phone, Hu Xiaoyun's face was sinister, but his voice remained calm as he said, "Then I'll await good news from your Su family."
- After ending the call, Hu Xiaoyun looked at a tall and burly man standing beside him.
- It was Hu Xiaotian, the newly crowned Tiger List Martial Saint!
- "Brother, it's the Su family, and Han Feng is their son-in-law."
- At this moment, Hu Xiaotian's eyes were filled with anger.
- After his glorious return, many families were rushing to gain his favor.
- A mere son-in-law of the Su family dared to ruin his own brother; he must be tired of living.
- "Don't worry, I will make the entire Su family pay with blood!"
