Return of the Celestial King

Seeing how determined Chen Wenxiong was, Qin Tuo could only shake his head helplessly and give a wry smile.

”Alright, Mr. Chen. I’ll leave all the arrangements to you.”

Chen Wenxiong nodded with a gratified smile.

’In his mind, making someone like Qin Tuo a company chairman was practically a waste of his talents. How could he possibly continue working as a mere sales employee?’

Moreover, Chen Wenxiong was thinking much further ahead.

’As long as Qin Tuo was willing to be the chairman, he would be completely tied to their Chen Family.’

’And in the future, making Qin Tuo his son-in-law would be the natural next step, wouldn’t it?’

After that, Chen Wenxiong’s mood brightened considerably, and he became much more cheerful and talkative.

Seeing his demeanor, Ouyang Tianqi began to look a bit anxious.

He finally couldn’t hold back and said what was on his mind.

”Mr. Qin, I’ll be frank. The reason I asked you here today is that there’s something I need to trouble you with.”

Qin Tuo nodded.

”Mr. Ouyang, since we’re friends who have bonded despite our age difference, please feel free to speak your mind!”

’How could he fail to see it? Ouyang Tianqi had been so enthusiastic from the moment he walked in, even gifting him an ancient painting. He obviously had an ulterior motive.’

That was perfectly normal, though. Qin Tuo was just curious about what kind of trouble Ouyang Tianqi had run into this time.

Ouyang Tianqi slowly began to explain.

”It’s like this, Mr. Qin. I have an old friend of more than twenty years. Recently, his wife returned from visiting a grave, and ever since, it’s as if she’s been possessed. She’s in a crazed state, and none of the famous doctors we’ve consulted have been able to cure her.”

As he spoke, Ouyang Tianqi sighed helplessly, hating to see his old friend’s wife in such a pitiful state.

Chen Wenxiong, who was listening at the side, couldn’t help but remark with a sigh.

”For a perfectly healthy person to suddenly become like that... it’s truly a tragedy!”

Ouyang Tianqi nodded heavily and said with a bitter smile,

”Indeed. Mr. Qin, the last time in my courtyard, you refined that Resentful Dragon Qi like a Celestial God descended to earth. To this day, I still find your methods absolutely miraculous. That’s why I believe you can definitely resolve this matter.”

His eyes, filled with intense expectation, were fixed on Qin Tuo.

The Chen father-daughter pair also waited for Qin Tuo to respond.

Clearly, they too hoped Qin Tuo would step in and help Ouyang Tianqi.

Qin Tuo nodded and said with a smile,

”Mr. Ouyang, it’s a small matter, hardly any trouble at all. There was no need for you to make a trip in person. A simple phone call would have been enough.”

Ouyang Tianqi was taken aback and quickly waved his hands in protest.

”Mr. Qin, how could I be so disrespectful? To hear you say that... you honor me too much!”

In Ouyang Tianqi’s mind, he had long since come to regard Qin Tuo as a living deity, someone who must be constantly revered.

So, when he heard Qin Tuo speak so casually, he even felt a little alarmed.

The Chen father and daughter hadn’t expected Qin Tuo to agree so readily, and a feeling of gratitude welled up inside them.

They knew Qin Tuo wasn’t just doing Ouyang Tianqi a favor; he was also being considerate of the Chen Family’s reputation.

After all, Ouyang Tianqi had gone through the Chen Family as intermediaries to arrange this meal with Qin Tuo.

If Qin Tuo had refused, it would have put the Chen Family in an awkward position.

Seeing from Qin Tuo’s casual words that he didn’t seem to consider this a big deal at all, Ouyang Tianqi hurriedly asked,

”Mr. Qin, from the sound of it, are you confident you can cure her?”

Chen Wenxiong and his daughter also watched nervously.

After all, in their eyes, this was a bizarre, supernatural affair, and likely wouldn’t be easy to resolve!

However, Qin Tuo just smiled and said,

”This is nothing more than a case of spirit possession. It’s really not a big deal.”

Hearing this, Ouyang Tianqi finally felt completely at ease.

”Mr. Qin, with those words from you, I can finally rest easy!”

Ouyang Tianqi smiled, relieved.

Hearing Qin Tuo’s confident assurance, the faces of Chen Wenxiong and his daughter, Chen Man Ni, also broke into smiles.

They knew that after this, the relationship between the Chen Family and Ouyang Tianqi would become even stronger.

Ouyang Tianqi suddenly remembered something!

”Oh, I almost forgot... Mr. Qin, I’ll call my old friend and his wife and have them come over right now for you to treat them.”

However, Qin Tuo quickly held up a hand to stop him.

”Mr. Ouyang, this sort of thing can’t be rushed. The sun is at its strongest right now, a time when all evil flees and hides. Acting rashly could very well have the opposite effect.”

Only then did Ouyang Tianqi understand that there were such specific considerations involved. He quickly asked with caution,

”Mr. Qin, in your opinion, what should we do then?”

Qin Tuo replied slowly,

”Mr. Ouyang, you just need to give me the address. I’ll go over myself after I get off work.”

Hearing how casually Qin Tuo spoke, it was clear he was very confident. Ouyang Tianqi was so excited he thanked him profusely.

”Alright, Mr. Qin, I’ll give you the address right now.”

Afterward, Qin Tuo jotted down the address and confidently promised that he would resolve the issue perfectly when the time came.

Everyone was overjoyed!

Just then, a tantalizing aroma filled the air. A table laden with delicious dishes was ready.

”Haha, come on! Let’s not just stand around talking. Let’s eat and drink!”

Chen Wenxiong laughed heartily.

The group ate their lunch in harmony, and by the end of it, they had all grown much closer.

During the meal, Chen Wenxiong couldn’t resist teasing Qin Tuo and Chen Man Ni.

”Qin Tuo, you and Manni are both at the right age to get married. Why don’t you two pick a date and make it official? That way, I can retire early and dote on my grandchildren!”

Chen Man Ni’s pretty face immediately flushed red.

”Dad, we’re in the middle of a meal! What are you talking about? Are you trying to make a spectacle for Mr. Ouyang?”

Ouyang Tianqi roared with laughter and teased,

”Young lady, your father is absolutely right! Besides, a fine man as rare as Mr. Qin doesn’t come along every day. You absolutely can’t let him get away!”

At this, Chen Man Ni’s face turned an even deeper shade of crimson.

Meanwhile, Qin Tuo, sitting to the side, looked rather awkward and quickly busied himself with picking up more food to hide his embarrassment.

After the meal, Chen Man Ni mysteriously pulled Qin Tuo aside into a corner.

”Qin Tuo, can you take me with you tonight? I want to see what this legendary spirit possession looks like, too!”

Qin Tuo asked curiously,

”Oh? You’re not afraid of things like that? Are you sure you want to come? Don’t get so scared you wet your pants!”

Chen Man Ni said confidently,

”Don’t worry. With you there, what do I have to be afraid of!”

Qin Tuo didn’t refuse and nodded in agreement.

After a brief farewell, Qin Tuo returned to the office to continue his workday.

As soon as he walked into the sales department, he was surprised to see that Han Zilin looked terrible, as if something was weighing on her mind.

Qin Tuo asked in confusion,

”Zilin, what’s wrong?”

Han Zilin waved a dismissive hand.

”Brother Tu, it’s nothing...”

Just as Qin Tuo was about to ask again, Wang Lei walked over.

”Qin Tuo, head downstairs right now. President Zhang is waiting for you in his car!”
