My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots Chapter 801 - Charm

Chapter 801: Charm

Much to the host’s surprise, the table was not nailed to the ground. As he grabbed the table, it fell in his direction and slammed onto his body. He let out a painful yelp.
Less than seven seconds after the explosion, all the lights in the venue went out.
Previously, all the windows were covered up with curtains to improve the lighting effects during the auction.
Since they were electric curtains and the electricity had been cut off, the huge curtains could not be pulled open. The sudden darkness caused the originally chill and relaxing venue to descend into panic-stricken cries.
Suddenly, somebody lifted the curtains a little. The light from outside seeped in, returning everyone’s vision in the originally pitch-black venue. Everyone instinctively looked toward the window.
The winter sun shone through the thick glass onto a tall figure that stood looming like a pine tree.
At this moment, Chi Yang was clad in his military uniform with a solemn expression on his face. He had his back to where the sunlight was filtering in as he faced everyone in the darkness. The sun shone on his tall and straight back, shining a golden glow around his body. He was like a towering mountain emitting a Buddhist glow of enlightenment. Even if the sky collapsed, his presence assured everyone there that he would be able to shoulder any calamity that could destroy the world.
“Don’t panic, everyone! I am the captain of Jiang District’s special forces team, Chi Yang. I swear on the name of a soldier that as long as everyone follows my orders and does what I say, I can ensure everyone’s safety.”
The people who had been panicking and screaming had miraculously quieted down when they saw Chi Yang.
Whether it was his words or his physical presence, it was as if everyone present swallowed a calming pill. Seeing him, everyone’s hearts calmed down even though they were just panicking a second ago.
That was true! Not only were their lives valuable here, but there was also Duke Eton and the leaders that were major generals or even lieutenant generals from the military base. There was also the governor of Union District, the governor of Jiang District, the young master of a first-tier wealthy family in Emperor District, and the richest man in Sea District…
Their lives were much too valuable.
If all these people died, it would definitely cause a calamity-level panic in Camino.
At that moment, everyone was truly afraid and lamented how unlucky they were. However, the soldiers’ presence became the silver lining in their misfortune. They felt that no matter how big the hurdle was, they would be able to turn the situation around with the help of these soldiers.
When Leng Jinpeng and the other leaders saw Chi Yang, they quickly gathered around him.
Leng Jinpeng, Qu Mingyi, First Deputy Commander-in-chief Peng Yaohua, and Second Deputy Commander-in-chief Luo Shangyi quickly gathered around Chi Yang.
Ling Pinyuan was supposed to represent the Ling family as she attended the auction with a few uncles from the Ling family. At this moment, she casually tore her long dress, which extended all the way to the ground, and her evening gown instantly became an extremely short skirt that was convenient for her to move around. She quickly approached Chi Yang’s side.
Chi Yang glanced at Ling Pinyuan, who was overwhelmed with a wave of awkwardness. Then, she recollected herself and performed a military salute solemnly.
“Even though I’m representing the Ling family to participate in the auction, I’m also a member of the special forces team. As a soldier, I have the responsibility to protect everyone.”
Chi Yang did not say anything. He just reciprocated Ling Pinyuan with a standard military salute.
Simultaneously while the leaders in the military base gathered, Zhong Nuannuan, Aiden, and Selina shielded Old Master Chi and Duke Eton in their protection.
While everyone was instinctively advancing toward the leaders of the military base, Old Master Wu brought his grandson and granddaughter over toward Zhong Nuannuan’s side.
