Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Making Things Difficult

”The Parent Committee invites you to join the Tianjiao Primary School Elite Class group chat!”

Han Biwei was starting to feel scared. She tapped to enter, her hand trembling.

Inside the Parent Committee group chat, it was completely silent. No one was talking.

Then, the committee head, Ms. Zhang, spoke up. ”You’re new, Han Niannian’s mother. Listen up. It will be Teacher Chen’s birthday soon. Teacher Chen works so hard for our elite class, so we should show our appreciation, shouldn’t we?”

Han Biwei frowned and typed, ”No problem. I’ll go along with what everyone else does.”

The committee head, Ms. Zhang: ”Very good. In that case, Han Niannian’s mother will be in charge of buying the gift. We’ve already picked it out. You can just front the money and buy it for us!”

An image was sent to the chat.

Han Biwei took one look and was dumbfounded. ”Aurank Crystal Queen High Heels... Th-this... how much do these cost?”

She searched for it on her phone. Oh my god, one hundred and twenty thousand!

And this was just for a teacher’s birthday gift.

This was too outrageous.

Holding her phone, Han Biwei immediately understood. This was purely a setup to give her a hard time.

’I’m supposed to front the money to buy it? Where would I even get that kind of money?’

Her last bit of savings was long gone. Biting her lip, she typed out a humiliating reply: ”I’m sorry, I don’t have that kind of money. If we really need to buy such an expensive gift, could everyone please pool the money together first?”

A string of mocking messages instantly flooded the Parent Committee group chat.

”You don’t even have that much money? What are you going to do for Teacher’s Day, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the New Year, and all the other teachers’ birthdays?”

”Han Biwei, we’re not trying to pick on you, but this is just how it is in the elite class. You should think it over. If the burden is too much for you, maybe you shouldn’t join our class!”

Han Biwei fell silent.

’Actually, it wasn’t impossible to come up with the hundred and twenty thousand for the gift!’

’She could grit her teeth, find a way, even take out a loan. She could get the money somehow.’

’The key was their disgusting attitude!’

’If I give in this time, the parent committee will just pull more dirty tricks later!’

’So I absolutely cannot give in!’

”Fellow parents, I want to send my child to the elite class to give her a better environment, not to compete over who has more money! I know what you’re worried about, but my daughter absolutely deserves to be in the elite class! That’s all I have to say!”

Han Biwei’s reply was firm and resolute, neither servile nor arrogant. It left the parent committee members speechless.

Ms. Zhang was clearly furious. She sent a voice message directly: ”Han Biwei, you listen to me. This has nothing to do with your child’s education; this is about common courtesy. You have to buy this gift! Otherwise, you have no right to be in this group, and your child can forget about getting into the elite class! That’s all I have to say!”

”That’s right, Han Biwei. When everyone first joined, they were responsible for buying something. It’s tradition. Don’t go breaking our traditions!”

”Han Biwei, don’t force our hand. If we all go to the school and protest, do you really think your daughter will get in?”

Han Biwei clutched her phone, her head bowed in humiliation.

Teacher Wang hurried over and asked, ”What’s wrong? Is the parent committee bullying you?”

Han Biwei showed Teacher Wang the messages in the group chat. ”I have no choice. For Niannian’s sake, even if I have to take out a loan, I have to get this done.”

Han Biwei was exhausted. A glimmer of hope in her life had just appeared, only for it to be crushed by the harsh realities of society.

Teacher Wang’s heart ached for her.

But it was all for her child. No matter how bitter or painful it was, she had to swallow it.

”Why don’t you discuss this with Tianxuan? He took me as his godmother last time, and he’s been checking in on me every single day. He’s such a good kid. I have a feeling that boy Tianxuan comes from an extraordinary background. He should have a solution!”

Han Biwei shook her head. ”Teacher, you don’t understand. Tianxuan... he was urgently recalled to the Northern Domain Battle Department. I don’t want to bother him with such a small matter. He’s meant to do great things.”

Watching Han Biwei’s weary departure, Teacher Wang shook her head and sighed. After a moment’s hesitation, she decided to call Qin Tianxuan anyway.

At that moment, Qin Tianxuan was sitting in a massive office on the top floor of Dongshen Mansion.

His desk was piled high with documents, and behind him stood a rotating leather executive chair.

The floor-to-ceiling windows were spotless and bright, and the walls were adorned with authentic masterpieces worth hundreds of millions.

This was the exclusive office of the Chairman of the Dongshen Financial Group, where every detail was meticulously designed.

Outside the door, twelve company presidents and twenty-four beautiful, charming female secretaries stood in line, waiting on standby.

Not a single one of them dared to even cough.

Qin Tianxuan frowned as he picked up a thick stack of documents. After just a few pages, his head was already spinning.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the desk.

From outside, Chief President Chen Haobei hurried in.

”Haobei, I’m not signing off on these. You twelve managers can deal with them yourselves!”

”Ah! But Mr. Qin, every single one of these documents determines a deal worth over a hundred million. They require your personal approval!”

Impatient, Qin Tianxuan tossed the documents onto the desk. ”I’m a soldier. I have no interest in this stuff, and I don’t want the hassle. You handle it! That’s an order. It’s not up for discussion!”

Wiping away his sweat, Chen Haobei quickly summoned the other eleven presidents, and they began to process the transactions with rapid speed.

At that very moment, countless tycoons, dignitaries, and top executives were waiting outside, anxiously anticipating the approval of those documents.

After processing each item, they still reported it to Qin Tianxuan and would only feel at ease after getting Mr. Qin’s personal signature.

BZZZ... Qin Tianxuan’s phone vibrated.

Seeing it was a call from Teacher Wang, he quickly answered.

Teacher Wang explained the situation with the elite class’s parent committee, adding a final piece of advice. ”Don’t confront the committee head-on. For Niannian’s sake, you have to handle this carefully. If money is the issue, I can chip in a little.”

Qin Tianxuan quickly told her that wouldn’t be necessary.

After hanging up, he turned to the room full of presidents and said, ”Get me a pair of Aurank Crystal Queen High Heels!”
