My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

Wei Du was rather convinced that Nangong Nuannuan would fall in love with him. After all, he was at least the president of a country.

Therefore, when Wei Du brought Nangong Nuannuan to the banquet hall, he introduced themselves as though they were the host and hostess of the party.

Since everyone's presence was just a foil today, they only had one objective--to see Nangong Nuannuan.

When they saw the president and a very beautiful young woman walk into the hall side by side, everyone's first instinct was that this girl was the President's new girlfriend. At the same time, they were all guessing the girl's background.

After all, many of the wealthy businessmen present wanted to introduce their daughters to this young and promising new president.

Although Naboo was in chaos and everyone was aware of how Pang Long's influences were suppressing Wei Du every so slightly, most businessmen at the top of the pyramid had connections with both Wei Du and Pang Long. Pang Long had just robbed the national treasury, and Wei Du's men wanted to strike while the iron was hot. However, once this surge of emotions ended--once Wei Du's weapons used up all his money--Wei Du's power would be severely reduced.

Even so, Wei Du was the legitimate president currently, and the tax burden of the people was on his shoulders. Although he had to face huge economic problems now, at least his economic strength was sustainable. Therefore, most wealthy families were still willing to hand their daughters over to Wei Du.

Therefore, when they saw that Wei Du had brought along such a beautiful girl, jealousy and hostility flashed in everyone's eyes.

After all, this girl looked unfamiliar.

If she turned out to be a nobody--not the daughter of some rich and powerful family--she would probably be gnawed until not even her bones were left after today's banquet.

"Everyone!" Wei Du could not hide the smile on his face. His eyes were glowing with a light that should not be there as he stared at Nangong Nuannuan.

"Allow me to start the introductions. This is the daughter of the Nangong family, the head of the Four Dominant Families in Camino, Nangong Nuannuan!"

The rich and powerful people narrowed their eyes when they looked at Nangong Nuannuan. They never expected Wei Du to seduce a rich and powerful family in Camino to consolidate his position.

"So, this is the young miss of the Nangong family. I, too, have some business dealings in Camino, so I have a certain impression of what's going on there. In the early years, I heard that a daughter of the Nangong family went missing and couldn't be found. Now that the Nangong family suddenly announced that their long-lost granddaughter has been found, I believe that young Miss Nangong must be the child of the little princess of the Nangong family with some outsider?"

A bespectacled man in his forties walked out and spoke rudely to Nangong Nuannuan. After all, anyone could tell that this person was criticizing Nangong Nuannuan as a mere child of the Nangong family's long-lost daughter and some unknown man. Furthermore, she was also the granddaughter of the Nangong family, born of the daughter, not a son. It was as clear as day that he was belittling Nangong Nuannuan.

The wealthy families of Naboo realized instantly that although Nangong Nuannuan had the title of Miss Nangong, it was hard to tell if her status could be of help to President Wei Du at all.

Naturally, Wei Du could read between those lines. Coldly, Wei Du replied, "Tang Yao, don't be rude. Everyone here has seen Miss Nuannuan before. In the past, perhaps because she was still too young, she was afraid that her appearance wouldn't be able to convince the public, so she attended a banquet in disguise. Miss Nuannuan is a person that you all respect very much. Now... has everyone guessed her identity?"

As the president, Wei Du did not introduce Nangong Nuannuan formally. His playful intervention displeased Nangong Nuannuan.
