Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) novel Chapter 1498

Anyone passing by could decipher the situation at a glance. Naturally, the Chai family and the Moo family understood everything clearly too.

The conundrum put Taufeeq in an awkward position, so he wasn't looking the best. However, when he turned his head to look at Salman, confidence swelled in his chest. A smile played out on his face.

Meanwhile, Cadmus on the other hand, retained a cheerful expression. Every so often, he would glance at Taufeeq with undisguised pride.

At present, the head of Zobery District's Merchant Bureau had just offered the Moo family a lantern, which attracted raucous cheering from the audience. After all, the Merchant Bureau was not any ordinary bureau. The aforementioned head was a popular figure among the directors. The lantern that he presented to the Moo family represented the directors' collective goodwill and support for the Moo family.

With that, the Moo family might just end up surprising everyone in the present year's altercation.

Cadmus seemed slightly taken aback at the lantern that was sent by the directors to the Moo family. The sparkle in his eyes flickered. However, he smiled again and clapped his hands together, saying, "Bring in Mr. Huang's lantern!"

The audience watched as a beautiful lantern depicting a flying white crane was brought in. The lantern itself was a thing of beauty, but what really caught everyone's attention was the name of the person who delivered it.

The person's name was announced. It was a simple introduction with no fancy title attached to it. "Mr. Jaega Huang of Southzobe University!"

However, everyone there was shocked. Their surprised looks were replaced with loud chattering as they began to avidly discuss the matter among themselves.

"I can't believe it! Mr. Jaega Huang?! It can't be!"

"I didn't expect Mr. Huang to be here. The Chai family lives up to their reputation. They're amazing."

"Is this Jaega Huang person very powerful? Why haven't I heard of him?"

"Jaega Huang is the principal of Southzobe University's School of Economics. I can't believe you haven't heard of him."

"Well, I know that. But that being said, although Southzobe University is a famous and reputable university, and it's amazing that Jaega is a principal there, he's just an academician. He isn't in the same playing field as the directors that support the Moo family!"

"You're clueless! Although Mr. Huang is only an educator, he will soon be transferred to the Ministry of Commerce of Zobery District for an important role."

"What? He'll be working at the Ministry of Commerce? What a feat!"

"Hah, that isn't that big of a deal. Wait till you hear this! Mr. Huang is Pascha Xu's student!"

"Pascha Xu? Wasn't he- Wasn't he the deputy director who retired from the Ministry of Commerce? So, Mr. Huang is Pascha's student. This is too-"

"Now you know who he is! How amazing is it that the Chai family got Mr. Huang to deliver a lantern!"

"That's incredible. The Chai family is unparalleled. They will definitely come out on top this time."

As Jaega's identity became known to all, the chattering in the crowd became livelier. The Chai family members were smiling from ear to ear. It seemed that the Chai family would be claiming their victory soon, without a doubt!

Cadmus beamed at Taufeeq smugly. His eyes were filled with the arrogance of certain victory.

Taufeeq's face fell. He gazed at Jaega's lantern for a while and felt fear settle into his heart. But then he saw Salman next to him, and his smile returned. Taufeeq addressed Salman, "Salman, now it's your turn."

Taufeeq didn't just arrange for Salman's lantern to be delivered. He went the extra mile so that Salman would be the one to deliver it. Such an extraordinary act would definitely surprise the audience.

"How could you live this long and not know who Mr. Salman is? Mr. Salman is the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce of Southern District. He's also an executive member of Zobery District's Industrial and Commercial Committee. Now, do you get how powerful he is?"

"Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and an executive member of the committee. He, he is indeed something!"

"I mean, even if he is reputable, he's still not up to par with Mr. Huang. After all, Mr. Huang will work in the Ministry of Commerce soon, and he's also Mr. Pascha's student. He's leagues above!"

"Leagues above Mr. Salman? You don't know anything!"

"Let me tell you, Mr. Huang is mighty, and he is indeed Pascha's student. But Mr. Zheng is even more powerful because he is Pascha's one and only son-in-law."

"What? Salman is Mr. Pascha's son-in-law? Is, is that true?"

"His only son-in-law. He's closer to him than a student would be!"

"So Mr. Zheng is really superior to Mr. Huang."

"I didn't expect the Moo family to actually turn the tables."

"This year's Lantern Festival is fascinating! First, the Chai family triumphed in the martial arts competition. Then, the Moo family defeated the Chai family in this civil battle. What a surprise!"

"The two families exchanged blows. Each has one win and one loss. However, going by the competition guidelines, the Moo family won the civil battle to a certain degree. Thus, they're the champions. In the future, the Moo family will likely be the number one clan of Zobery District."

"This is beyond my expectations. Who would've thought that this would happen?"
