Wu Haitian stared at Liu Chan in astonishment.
A car worth over a million, even as the young master, he couldn't just buy it on a whim.
Liu Chan, listening to her classmates' discussions, felt a bit embarrassed.
However, having followed Su Yinxue for two months, she had learned to be as efficient and generous as Su Yinxue.
Immediately, she pulled out the car key and handed it to Manager Zhang with an apologetic expression.
"I'm really sorry for the trouble, could you please move my car for me?"
Manager Zhang took the car keys and nodded.
He was about to utter a polite remark when his eyes fell on Liu Chan's face, and he was taken aback.
"Secretary Liu, how come you are here?"
Manager Zhang's expression could be described as utterly shocked.
His eyes were wide open, his breathing rapid.
Liu Chan hadn't expected someone to recognize her, and she too was startled.
"You know me?"
Manager Zhang was stunned for a while before he rushed over to shake hands with Liu Chan, clearly upset.
"Secretary Liu has been beside President Su, a person of great importance with many responsibilities, but I have indeed seen Secretary Liu."
"Last week, I, along with our Director Wu, went to the headquarters of Yalan International to attend an expanded meeting of the management, and Secretary Liu was sitting right beside President Su."
Liu Chan was stunned and after a long while, she shook her head.
"I'm sorry, I really can't remember, there were just too many people at the time."
Manager Zhang accompanied his words with a humble smile.
"That's indeed the case, and besides, Jinmao Hotel was merged into Lanting Hotel not long ago, so we will all get familiar with each other over time."
Hearing this, Yang Fei finally understood the sequence of events.
It turned out that recently, Lin Xueyi and Su Yinxue had discussed expanding Lanting Hotel's business further.
The two women intended to turn Lanting Hotel into a large chain business hotel.
They had acquired three large hotels in Yannan City.
The specifics were managed by Su Yinxue.
Yang Fei knew about this, as Su Yinxue had briefly mentioned it to him.
However, Yang Fei hadn't paid much attention to it.
He hadn't expected that Jinmao Hotel was actually one of the hotels acquired by Su Yinxue.
No wonder Manager Zhang recognized Liu Chan.
With that said, Yang Fei was actually the chairman of this hotel.
Liu Chan actually owned a Mercedes SL worth over a million.
This explosive news had made Liu Chan the center of attention.
And at this very moment, listening to the conversation between Manager Zhang and Liu Chan, all the classmates were dumbstruck.
Words like "acquisition," "Yalai International," and "President Su" were captured keenly by the interns with a vested interest.
They stared at Liu Chan in disbelief, their mouths agape.
Just as Yang Nan had said.
Yalan International, founded for just half a year, had already grown into a colossal conglomerate.
Above all, Yalan Apparel had become a newcomer to women's high-end fashion.
The Yalan Apparel brand, not to mention in Shan Province,
had even made it into the top ten domestically and internationally.
Joining such a company, bursting with possibilities, was something every newcomer dreamed of.
But Yalan International's recruitment requirements were too high.
All the interns present lacked the qualifications to apply.
Even Yang Nan had gotten hold of an application form through some connections.
But nobody had expected that Liu Chan would join Yalan International so quietly.
And from what Manager Zhang indicated, her position was not low.
Among these people, the most shocked was Wu Haitian.
He was aware that the hotel was acquired by Lanting Hotel.
And because of this, he was immensely proud.
Relying on the big tree of Yalan International, Jinmao Hotel would undoubtedly see a rolling in of wealth.
Even though it was acquired, Wu Haitian's father still held a fifty-one percent stake in the hotel.
After Wu Haitian inherited the hotel, he would be part of Yalan International's management.
With a bit more effort, he might even make it to the upper echelons of Yalan International.
The Wu family's business could diversify.
Of course, this was just the kid's unrealistic fantasy.
Who could have imagined that his dreams and aspirations would be quietly achieved by Liu Chan?
Wu Haitian and everyone else stared at Liu Chan with their mouths agape.
In their eyes was nothing but shock.
Manager Zhang greeted Liu Chan politely, with a smile on his face.
"You've come to inspect the hotel in person, I'm not qualified to accompany you at my level," he said.
"Just wait, I'll report to Director Wu and have him come to accompany you personally."
Liu Chan was taken aback.
"You misunderstand, I'm here just for a class reunion," she explained.
"There's no need to disturb Chairman Wu."
"No, no, if you've come to the hotel, how could I not report it?" he insisted.
"Chairman Wu will scold me if he finds out later."
After saying this, Manager Zhang took out his phone and called Chairman Wu.
With no other option, Liu Chan stood her ground, sneakily glancing at her classmates around her.
She saw everyone looking at her with their mouths wide-open in shock.
Liu Chan sighed to herself, feeling quite disconcerted.
A pleasant class reunion had become this, a testament to society's materialism and snobbery.
Manager Zhang got through on the call and had barely spoken two sentences.
Chairman Wu's distinctive booming voice suddenly rose, coming through the phone loud enough for everyone to hear.
"What did you say, Secretary Liu is here?" he exclaimed.
"Heavens, the head office didn't send any notification, I'll be right there."
Chairman Wu's loud voice was too sonorous.
The lobby was simply too quiet.
Almost everyone heard Chairman Wu's voice.
His tone was very anxious and tense.
Wu Haitian's face went from pale to flushed.
He knew his father too well.
There were few people who could make him this nervous.
And Liu Chan, whom everyone looked down upon, had somehow made his father extremely anxious.
A few minutes later, a man in his fifties rushed in hastily.
He wore a jacket, trousers, and a tie, with flecks of gray in his hair.
This man was none other than Wu Haitian's father, Wu Zhuguo, the chairman of Jinmao Hotel.
As soon as Wu Zhuguo burst in and saw Liu Chan, he approached her with a smile plastered across his face.
He shook hands with Liu Chan, displaying extreme warmth.
"Secretary Liu, you should have informed us in advance if you were coming to inspect the hotel," he said.
"I would have arranged a car to pick you up, this is too discourteous."
Liu Chan shook hands with Wu Zhuguo elegantly.
"Uncle Wu, you're too kind," she replied.
"I'm here at Jinmao Hotel not for work, but just for a private class reunion."
Wu Zhuguo paused for a moment, then suddenly saw Wu Haitian and was overjoyed.
"I understand now; you're Haitian's classmate, that's great, too great!" he said excitedly.
He couldn't help but be moved.
"You're from the same class of interns. How come you turned out to be so successful, even becoming President Su's secretary?"
"And my good-for-nothing son, all he does is cause trouble at the hotel, just hanging around aimlessly."
At this point, he yelled out loud.
"You brute, do you see that? This is what it means to be successful!"
"Secretary Liu is your role model!"
