The Imperial Court Hotel’s restaurant had been booked out for the evening.
It wasn’t open to the public.
A total of three tables were arranged. The nu for each was set at a standard of over 10,000 yuan, prepared with the finest ingredients available.
It couldn’t be helped. In a small town like this, truly expensive ingredients weren’t available.
Most of the cost ca from the seafood, like abalone, king crab, large lobsters, turbot, and geoduck clams.
The other, more common dishes didn’t really add much to the cost.
Then there was the alcohol.
Each table was to have two bottles of Feitian Maotai, and the owner had specifically instructed that they must be authentic.
This was because the woman who had made the reservation—from her clothes and jewelry to her overall bearing—was clearly no ordinary person.
She had an out-of-town accent and spoke Mandarin, looking every bit like she was from a big city.
Moreover, she seed very familiar with the hotel business herself. They barely needed to explain anything; she was the one listing all the necessary arrangents and points of concern.
The owner naturally couldn’t afford to give soone like that the runaround, nor could he risk offending her.
She looked like the type who would actually have her lawyers sue him.
He figured the guests at this banquet wouldn’t be simple folk either.
Watching the ti, the owner, as a show of good faith, personally led his managent staff and servers to wait at the entrance of the hotel lobby.
Before long, a white Bentley slowly pulled up.
It was followed by two black rcedes-Benzes.
Yu Xuan opened her door and got out.
When the hotel owner saw her, he imdiately had his staff open the doors for the other passengers.
He himself walked over to Yu Xuan and said with a smile, "Miss Yu, welco! And a warm welco to all our distinguished guests."
The uncles and aunts had never experienced such treatnt when going out for a al.
After getting out of the cars and seeing the line of servers waiting to welco them at the entrance, they couldn’t help but stand a little straighter.
The two aunts suddenly felt incredibly important.
After getting out, Yu Xuan walked straight to Xu Yun’s side. "Boss, should we head up now? Or...?"
"You take my mom and the others upstairs first and get them settled. I’ll wait down here for the remaining guests."
"Understood, Boss."
With that, Yu Xuan led the rest of the group toward the private room upstairs.
The hotel owner could now see who the true host of the evening was.
He smilingly approached Xu Yun and asked, "Sir, may I ask your na?"
"My surna is Xu. The na’s Yun."
"President Xu, a pleasure. I’m the owner of this hotel. My na is Wei Lai."
"President Wei, a pleasure. Thank you for your hard work today."
"The custor is king. You pay, I provide the service. It’s only natural. It’s no trouble at all."
Wei Lai added, "If there’s anything that isn’t to your satisfaction, please don’t hesitate to let know."
"I will."
After their brief exchange, he accompanied Xu Yun at the entrance to greet the other guests.
Seeing this, Xu Yun didn’t object and tacitly accepted his company.
’This owner really knows his business.’
For his mother’s birthday this ti, he had invited so close relatives and friends.
Guests began to arrive one after another.
Each ti, the owner proactively had the servers behind him guide the new arrivals to the private room upstairs.
A mont later, Zhang Lei and his wife arrived.
The couple saw Xu Yun at the entrance, offered a smiling greeting, and then headed upstairs.
They carried themselves with an air of superiority.
The hotel owner, Wei Lai, asked with so surprise, "President Xu, who was that? Acting so high and mighty!"
"My immature younger cousin."
Xu Yun chuckled. "He’s young. A bit proud and arrogant, looks down on everyone."
"..." Wei Lai was speechless.
’So "proud and arrogant" youngster.’
’Heh. With a personality like that, he’s destined to never amount to much, no matter what he does.’
The two waited a while longer. When Xu Yun felt that pretty much everyone who was coming had arrived, he prepared to head upstairs.
The hotel owner, Wei Lai, called out, "President Xu, it looks like there are more people coming."
"More?"
Xu Yun turned his head curiously and saw three more luxury cars approaching the hotel entrance in the distance.
The one in the lead was a Rolls-Royce, followed by a black Bentley Continental GT, and finally a red Porsche 911.
The hotel owner silently clicked his tongue in astonishnt.
The hotel staff behind him also widened their eyes. A sight like this was a rare spectacle in a small town.
These three cars combined were probably worth over ten million yuan.
In a big city, this might not be a big deal—just a regular scene in any mall’s underground garage, where luxury cars are everywhere.
But this was a small town.
A place where you wouldn’t see a Rolls or a Bentley even twice a year.
And today, so many luxury cars had shown up at once.
Judging by the license plates, none of them were local. They were from Jiangcheng.
’To co all this way just for a al... It really shows President Xu’s influence and power in Jiangcheng.’
Standing to the side, Xu Yun frowned.
Because aside from the first car, the Rolls-Royce, which he didn’t recognize, weren’t the other two his own cars?
Could it be...?
Just as he guessed the answer, a group of won began to get out of the cars.
Su Mu, Li Jinshu, Ning Qian, Song Xiaowei, and Liang Yan.
Five stunningly beautiful won, each with her own unique aura, appeared before them.
This left the hotel owner, Wei Lai, and the staff behind him completely dumbfounded.
Luxury cars and beautiful won.
Today, they had certainly seen their fill!
Xu Yun stood where he was and said with a helpless smile, "What are you all doing here?"
"What’s wrong? Are you not happy to see us?"
As the leader of the group, Su Mu stepped forward and said with a grin, "If we’re not welco, we’ll just get back in our cars and leave."
"No, it’s not that. I’m just a little surprised."
Xu Yun said, "You didn’t even give a heads-up before coming. I haven’t prepared any food for you."
"We didn’t co here to eat. We ca to celebrate your mother’s birthday."
