Chapter 136 What makes her so special?
"No, that...that Chairman Zhuo."
"You've got it wrong, haven't you? You're actually going to give that nomination spot to Su Zichen?"
"Just because of this piece of junk?"
Deng Lingling's head was buzzing; she still found it hard to believe.
"Scrap metal?"
"This Fish Intestine Sword is a rare treasure."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't keep criticizing it."
"This time, the nomination for the image ambassador will go to Ms. Su Zichen."
"Not only that, I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to Ms. Su."
Zhuo Haishan spoke solemnly with a serious expression.
"I..." Deng Lingling felt as if a bomb had exploded in her mind.
My head was buzzing, and I couldn't process what was happening for a long time.
"It's fake, it's all fake! This is absolutely impossible, this is absolutely impossible." Su Youfei, who was standing to the side, once again went into a frenzy, "Why did Su Zichen get the recommendation for the image ambassador position?"
"That spot was clearly mine!"
"Su Zichen is clearly a worthless person, what makes him think he can compare to me?"
"If I can't get it, why should he?"
Su Youfei's eyes were bloodshot as she looked at Zhuo Haishan like a madwoman, "President Zhuo, what exactly is that sword?"
"Why is it more valuable than the Hetu Cauldron and the Fulong Cauldron?"
"In terms of value alone, this Fish Intestine Sword is certainly not as good as the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron, and it's not even as good as your River Diagram Cauldron." Zhuo Haishan gently wiped the Fish Intestine Sword with his hand.
He spoke with the tenderness one would show to a first love, “However, for me personally, the value of this sword far surpasses that of the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron.”
"Why..."
Su Youfei stopped speaking halfway through her sentence.
Grandma Su had said more than once that Zhuo Haishan had always been indifferent to fame and fortune.
When it comes to gifts, one doesn't consider their intrinsic value, but only one's own likes and dislikes.
In fact, the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow that Deng Lingling just gave her was worth only a few hundred thousand.
But at that time, his fame had already overshadowed the gifts worth hundreds of millions.
Conversely, the dragon scale armor that Qian Ziyan gave was more valuable than most of the other gifts.
But Zhuo Haishan dismissed it dismissively and returned it directly.
This perfectly confirms what Grandma Su said.
However, Su Youfei never expected that the scrap metal Lu Chenyang took out would actually surpass all the other treasures under his feet.
"President Zhuo, this is a small token of my appreciation."
"This is mine."
"Me too, me too..."
Everyone was amazed when Su Zichen pulled out a piece of junk.
The other women who hadn't yet given their gifts instantly saw a glimmer of hope.
He quickly took out his gift.
They were all filled with anticipation, hoping that the gifts they gave would catch Zhuo Haishan's eye.
After all, even the scrap metal that Su Zichen gave away could make Chairman Zhuo like it so much.
In their view, both they themselves and the gifts they gave were far superior to Su Zichen's.
Perhaps, it will make Chairman Zhuo like it even more.
Of course, the final result was destined to disappoint everyone.
Because Zhuo Haishan's entire focus was on that Fish Intestine Sword.
He completely disregarded other gifts.
"Thank you all for coming today. This celebration party has come to a successful conclusion." Zhuo Haishan said to everyone with a smile, holding the Fish Intestine Sword.
Then, he turned to Su Zichen and said emphatically, "Miss Su, the Zhongyu Province Martial Arts Tournament will be held in two months."
"I will have Zhuo Yingying personally inform you when the time comes."
“I’ll take it. If your Su family has anyone who practices martial arts, I can have someone sign you up for the competition.”
"If your Su family can produce both the top scholars in the civil and military examinations, it would be quite a remarkable story."
"Thank you, thank you, Chairman Zhuo." Feeling like she was dreaming, Su Zichen was being treated like a star.
He felt as if the past few days had been a rollercoaster ride.
He originally didn't have high hopes for the position of brand ambassador.
By chance, he managed to snag a Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng at a bargain price, and a glimmer of hope began to stir within him.
However, the Nine-Bend Ginseng was then contaminated, which caused him to lose all hope.
However, he never dreamed of this.
After going around in circles, the nomination for the ambassadorship came back to him.
Even now, he still feels that it all feels unreal.
He even wondered if he was still dreaming.
"Patriarch Song, the situation is now settled, what else do you have to say?" Old Madam Su did not miss the opportunity to ridicule Old Madam Song.
"Hmph, it's just good luck, nothing special. Let's go." Old Mrs. Song said some sour words, then led the Song family away quickly.
Grandma Su smiled at the Zhou family head and said, "You flatter me, Zhou family head."
The Zhou family patriarch sighed deeply, "In the end, we were one step behind."
"However, a loss is a loss."
"Our Zhou family is not one to be a sore loser."
"This time, your Su family is indeed formidable."
After saying a few polite words, the Zhou family members took their leave.
The celebration banquet came to a successful conclusion, and Old Madam Su led the Su family members away.
"I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled!"
"I am better than Su Zichen in every way, so why did I lose to him?"
"Why? Why?"
Looking at Su Zichen walking ahead, Su Youfei's eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred.
"Youfei, you don't need to be so angry."
"This time, Su Zichen was just lucky."
"Even Chairman Zhuo said that the pile of scrap metal that Su Zichen gave away was worthless."
"It's just that he has a special feeling for that sword."
"There's nothing anyone can do about this."
Deng Lingling understood Su Youfei's feelings very well and stepped forward to comfort her.
After saying that, he also glared fiercely at Su Zichen in front of him.
He said in a low voice, "Besides, even if Su Zichen gets the recommendation spot, so what?"
"To put it bluntly, it's just a spot in the competition, isn't it?"
"Think about it, there are so many talented people in the entire Zhongyu Province, do you think he would get the position of image ambassador?"
“He himself was incompetent, and he married Lu Chenyang, a convict.”
"Then his fate in this life is already sealed."
"If you bother with someone like that, wouldn't you be beneath your dignity?"
Hearing Deng Lingling's words of advice, Su Youfei felt much better instantly. "Sister Lingling, you're right."
“Lu Chenyang was rejected by Sister Mulan and me one after another, but Su Zichen still treated him like a treasure.”
"It's clear that Su Zichen's life will only ever be like that."
"His current glory is nothing but a flash in the pan."
"Once Su Zichen returns from the Martial Arts Tournament with her true form intact, she will reveal her true colors."
"As for Lu Chenyang?"
"He caught the eye of Chairman Zhuo by chance, thanks to the junk his cellmate gave him."
"This is just a lucky break."
"But such luck can never last."
