Chapter 1048
Xia Qingwei smiled coldly. Dai Rongcheng was really thinking too highly of himself.
But there were too many people there. If any of the others had ever asked that of Wang Juhuai, wouldn’t Wang Juhuai now have a lot of disciples?
No wonder Dai Rongcheng would have a daughter like Dai Yiran. He was equally as greedy.
When Xia Qingwei got angry, the hand she used to hold Wang Juhuai’s arm with increased its force.
Wang Juhuai said in his heart that his wife had quite a lot of strength. He hurriedly held on to Xia Qingwei’s hand without changing his expression, then he patted it to comfort her.
“Secretary Dai, there are so many people here. If others had those sorts of thoughts, then I would really end up with too many disciples,” Wang Juhuai said as he smiled. “I don’t accept any students if all they’d want to do is to use my name. If I want to take a student, then they’d need to learn from me properly and do well. After they’d learned from me, they have to concentrate on this path. No matter who it is or what their background and identity is, they need to pass my criteria and test.”
Dai Rongcheng had been slapped in his face and naturally was a bit unhappy, but he still said, “Then what are the criteria? How about Mr. Wang meet my daughter? And test her on the spot?”
Wang Juhuai smiled. “There’s no need.”
“Why?” Dai Rongcheng was very unhappy. “Mr. Wang, you refuse to accept my daughter as a student in name, but that’s what Mr. Wang wants, and I respect that. But since you mentioned a test, we can follow your requirements, but why don’t you agree? I respect you, but I also hope to have the appropriate amount of respect from you.”
Xia Qingwei looked at Dai Rongcheng coldly. The father and daughter pair was both equally as unreasonable.
Wang Juhuai smiled coldly. “Secretary Dai, do you know why I know your daughter Dai Yiran’s name? She’s not a famous person and no one knows her. She’s currently working for TV stations but did not attain any achievements or did anything that would make people know of her. Such a person with a lack of exposure and fame, how would I know about her?”
“Haha,” Wang Juhuai laughed mockingly. “You are really quite arrogant if you think your daughter should be known by everyone. Even if you think that your daughter is great, there is no need to think so highly of yourself.”
Dai Rongcheng was really angry. “Mr. Wang, I respected you and spoke to you politely, but you mocked me and looked down on my daughter. Aren’t you going too far?!”
“Compared to what your daughter did to my daughter, how is this little bit considered ‘going too far’?” Wang Juhuai said coldly.
Xia Qingwei had originally been angry because Wang Juhuai was being so polite to Dai Rongcheng.
She knew that at this sort of event, this was a must. He could not directly fall out with Dai Rongcheng here, so Xia Qingwei did not say anything and just felt uncomfortable in her heart.
She did not think that Wang Juhuai was actually waiting for Dai Rongcheng here.
Dai Rongcheng paused. “Your daughter?”
Even Xia Qingwei was shocked. Wang Juhuai was talking about Lu Man, she knew.
But she did not think that Wang Juhuai would directly acknowledge her as his daughter.
For her sake, he could accept even Lu Man and protect her like she was his biological daughter.
Xia Qingwei pressed on Wang Juhuai’s arm, feeling touched, and could not help but smile.
If it were not for the fact that he needed to deal with Dai Rongcheng, Wang Juhuai really would have wanted to bring Xia Qingwei back now and enjoy how touched she felt at what he said.
Who even cared about Dai Rongcheng?
“Based on what I know—” Dai Rongcheng did not finish speaking and just smiled.
Wang Juhuai did not have his own children.
“Have you heard of Lu Man?” Wang Juhuai smiled coldly. “She’s the daughter of my wife, and she is naturally my daughter as well. We are a family.”
