Magic Doctor: CEO Lady’s Humble Husband (full story)

be hesitant to collaborate with the Tan family in future. After this episode, the toasting of the guests

continued, round after round. Although Fatty Huang was considered good at holding his liquor, he

became rather drunk and his face was flushed bright red. In the end, he required assistance to be

carried home for a rest. Hubert Qian and Fade Chen were still sober as a judge, able to hold their liquor

without problem. In particular, Fade Chen, after downing many glasses of wine, still did not turn red, nor

did his heartbeat quicken at all. He remained completely unaffected. Observing this, Hubert Qian’s

sense of shock was amplified, and his admiration for the abilities of Lunatic Chen increased. Finally,

after the toasting ceremony was over, Hubert Qian stood up and raised his glass. He said in a clear

voice, "I would like to thank all of you for coming today. You are all here to witness something

extraordinary." Everyone felt a sense of curiosity and could not understand Hubert Qian’s words. Then,

they saw Hubert Qian with his raised glass, turning around to face Fade Chen. He proceeded to bow in

a deferential manner. Finally, he clasped the glass with both hands and said, ", Hubert Qian, would like

to propose a toast in honor of Mr Chen." With those words, Hubert Qian downed the wine in his raised

cup in one big chug. Witnessing this, the crowd was stunned and looked on with an expression of

incredulity. Although they had heard that Hubert Qian treated Fade Chen like a venerable guest of

honor and had the utmost respect for him, they were not expecting him to be so respectful towards

Fade Chen. They did not anticipate such a personal toast to Fade Chen from him in the presence of

the rich and powerful of Hanover City. This gesture seemed comparable to an explicit announcement to

the crowd of the fact that Hubert Qian saw himself as subordinate to Fade Chen. This was Hubert Qian

putting Fade Chen on a pedestal. Instantly, speculation about the truth behind Fade Chen’s identity,

which had died down for a while, resurfaced. The crowd started to buzz and chatter amongst

themselves. Some of the guests were shrewd, and quickly came to their senses on how they should

react to this. They imitated the gesture, raising their wine glasses and bowing respectfully at Fade

Chen. The rest of the guests began to take the cue and follow in gesture. Another round of toasting

began in that time, and Fade Chen did not restrain himself but drank up all the wine. He still seemed

well, calm and unaffected, without any change to his demeanor. Just as the round of toasting was

coming to an end, a middle-aged man, who was around his forties or fifties, suddenly emerged from the

crowd. The man was dressed in a smart looking suit and wearing shiny leather shoes. In his tow were

two others, and he stepped forward with a smile on his face. Noticing this man, the guests had a

surprised expression. They fixed their gazes on him. "Why is he here ?" "The Hu family actually sent

someone as representative to the banquet. What do you think this means ?" "It’s alright to send a

representative, but why arrive so late? Won’t the banquet be ending soon ?" "This is obviously and

insult towards Big Brother Qian!" Amidst the crowd’s discussion, Hubert Qian’s face fell. Seeing Fade

Chen beside him with a puzzled expression, Hubert Qian explained, "This man is the butler of Shawn

Hu. The Qian family and the Hu family have long been at odds with each other, and in recent years,

there has hardly been any contact between us. But now, he has sent a representative to the banquet."

Fade Chen nodded, understanding the situation. The history between the Qian Family and the Hu

Family were similar to that of the Long Enterprise and the Wan Family in Bay City. There were all sorts

of conflicts and grievances between both elders and the families. After all, they were both based in the

same territory, so it was inevitable. The fact was that for a very long time, there had been no contact

between the two families.

However, now out of the blue, a representative had arrived. One had to seriously consider the motives

behind this action. The butler walked up to Hubert Qian, made a cordial gesture of greeting and said,

"Mr. Qian, it’s a pleasure to meet you. When Old Master was informed that a friend of Mr. Qian is

opening a business and having a ribbon-cutting ceremony. he sent me to congratulate Mr. Qian.

Unfortunately there was a traffic jam on the road, which caused me to be late. Many apologies, Mr.

Qian." This excuse was so preposterous that one could not believe it. The Hu Family had a high status

in the city, therefore it was impossible for a traffic jam to be of any hindrance to them. It was obvious

that they had arrived late on purpose. Hubert Qian was of course aware of this fact. His face was

solemn and he said, "Since you were delayed, it would have not been necessary for you to be in

attendance. I am in no need of extra gifts." At these words, the butler’s expression did not change. He

gestured his hand and let the two men behind him bring forward two gifts, one which was larger and

the other smaller in size. The butler still had a smile on his face as he said to Hubert Qian, "Old Master

has given the command that I must ensure that the gifts are delivered and received." "Just leave the

gifts and go!" Hubert Qian knew that they had deliberately arrived late in order to insult him. In such

cases as these, Hubert Qian would not be so gracious, therefore he asked them to leave immediately.

However, the butler did not move. Instead, he looked at Fade Chen, who was beside Hubert Qian, and

continued with a smile, "This time, Old Master heard that Mr. Qian is graced by the presence of an

honored guest, Mr. Chen, therefore he prepared two gifts." He pointed to the two gifts behind him, one

which was bigger and the other smaller. He proceeded to speak with a simper, "Originally, according to

the master’s instructions, the bigger gift belongs to Mr. Qian, and the smaller gift to Mr. Chen." this

moment, Chen, please assist me in this matter." The butler made a polite gesture in obeisance,

continuing to smile ingratiatingly at Hubert Qian and Fade Chen. "But I just observed Mr. Qian giving a

toast to Mr. Chen. At am not sure who should I present the bigger gift to, and for who the smaller gift

should be given to. Mr. Qian and Mr. I can’t tell who is of higher or lower status. I The crowd had

become completely silent, and everyone was gazing at Hubert Qian and Fade Chen..
