Chapter 19: Rejection

Soon, the red envelopes had all been distributed.

At this time, Han Yongtao's expression instantly became serious again, "Everyone, I hope you will not spread the news of my father's hospitalization carelessly. If I find out that someone has leaked this information..."

Before Han Yongtao could finish, the hospital director hastily interrupted, "Rest assured, when Old Master Han came to the hospital, it was just for a routine physical examination. Old Master Han is in excellent health, without a trace of illness. Absolutely nobody will find out any other information."

The hospital director then swept his gaze over everyone in the room, "Do you understand? Old Master Han was just here for a simple check-up today!"

Everyone understood that the red envelopes were hush money, so they all nodded, "Understood!"

At this moment, the old master on the sickbed slightly opened his eyes and looked toward Zhan Yun, "You must be Doctor Zhan Yun. You saved my life!"

As soon as the old master spoke, everyone turned to look at Zhan Yun, many filled with envy. They all knew that Zhan Yun's good fortune had arrived, and it was time for his deeds to be rewarded.

Zhan Yun stood up straight, nodding slightly with neither servility nor arrogance, "I am Zhan Yun."

"The son-in-law of the Feng Family?" the old master asked again.

Zhan Yun nodded slightly, "Yes."

"Divorced, aren't you? I heard that the Feng Family has long wanted to drive you out. After you're divorced, come to the Han Family, work by my side, and you can pick any position you want," the old master said assertively.

At this moment, everyone around looked at Zhan Yun with eyes full of envy, as if he was about to ascend to great heights and become a phoenix perched upon a branch.

You must understand, this was an olive branch thrown by the old master of the Han Family. With these words from the old master, as long as Zhan Yun didn't mess up, his future was assured to soar to new heights.

Moreover, it was clear that the old master intended to appoint Zhan Yun as his personal physician, a person who could speak directly to the old master himself.

If Zhan Yun were smart enough to become a favorite by the old master's side, his status could even rise to be on par with the heads of the four top families in Peiyang City.

As for the Feng Family? Heh, in the future the head of the Feng Family would have to respectfully address Zhan Yun as 'Lord Zhan' when they saw him!

At this moment, everyone envied Zhan Yun beyond measure.

Even Xia Qu, who lacked social experience, knew that from this day forward, Zhan Yun was destined for great success.

At this time, even Xia Qu felt a little turbulence in her heart. If Zhan Yun truly divorced Feng Lingxue and went to the Han Family, then... wouldn't Zhan Yun become single?

Though Xia Qu had not interacted much with Zhan Yun, she didn't know why, but she suddenly had a little bit of anticipation.

However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Zhan Yun did not seem overly excited. His expression did not even change.

At this moment, Zhan Yun shook his head, "I'm sorry, but I can't go to the Han Family."

"Ah?" In the sickroom, everyone looked at Zhan Yun as if he were an idiot. He had actually refused!

What gave him the right to refuse?

How dared he refuse?

This was an invitation from the Han Family, and Zhan Yun had actually refused it!

Everyone felt as if Zhan Yun's brain must have malfunctioned, as they all looked at him with incredulous eyes.

The expression of the Han Family head did not show much change; he seemed to have anticipated Zhan Yun's refusal.

At this moment, the old master of the Han Family had a smile on his face, exuding confidence, "You refused me? Do you know who I am?"

Zhan Yun smiled, "Of course, I know who you are, the real helmsman of the Han Family in Peiyang City, Han Yuting."

Old Master Han nodded slightly, "Then do you know what my offer means to you?"

"Your offer, not to mention someone made a laughingstock in the entire city like me, even the heads of the other families might be tempted."

"Yet you still refuse!" Han Yuting's expression was commanding even without anger.

Seeing the expression of the Han Family head, everyone was startled. They feared Old Master Han might lose his temper!
