Chapter 337 - 337 Invitation; Lottery Draw!
337 Invitation; Lottery Draw!
After Chen Xin finished speaking, she took her phone and went to her room.
After the door closed, Li Rong said softly, “Didn’t you say that our Huanhai Company’s funds are in trouble? If Dadi doesn’t help… Will we be swallowed up by Swift Company?”
When this matter was brought up, Chen Dayong’s indifferent expression from before disappeared without a trace.
What replaced it was a worried look.
“But no matter what difficulties the company is facing, we can’t let Xin Xin suffer.”
Then, Chen Dayong smiled and said, “Besides, aren’t I meeting the president of the Jiangbei branch of Tiantian Bank today? As long as the negotiations are settled, the problem of our company’s funds will be no more.”
Li Rong said, “It’s such an important banquet. Won’t it be inappropriate to invite Lin Fan over?”
“I think it’s quite good. I can discuss business and also inspect my future son-in-law. It’s killing two birds with one stone!” Chen Dayong laughed.
…
Coiling Dragon Villa.
Lin Fan had just finished his breakfast when the phone in his pocket vibrated.
Chen Xin: [Lin Fan, are you free today? My parents want to invite you to dinner.]
When Lin Fan saw this message, he was stunned for a moment.
Was this another meeting with parents?
Another?
That was right!
That was because Lin Fan had already met Qiu Ziqian’s parents, Huang Ling’s parents, and Hu Tian’s parents…
It could be said that Lin Fan was quite experienced when it came to meeting parents.
After a while, Lin Fan raised his fingers and started to type on the screen.
Lin Fan: [Of course, I have time! I’ll be there in a bit.]
After chatting for a while…
At this moment, Lin Fan’s phone rang.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was the president of Tiantian Bank, Huang Jiayi.
Lin Fan said, “Hello, what’s up?”
“I’m having a meeting in Jiangbei,” Huang Jiayi said. “Would you like to come over?”
“Meeting? I have no interest in such things…” Lin Fan said straightforwardly.
“Yes, yes…” Huang Jiayi was worried that he would make Lin Fan unhappy, so he did not dare to say anything more about the topic.
Then, the two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
…
In the president’s office of the Jiangbei branch of Tiantian Bank.
“President Yuan, our Swift Company has spent a lot of effort to force Huanhai Company to where they are today,” the bald man said.
“You can’t let my efforts go to waste.”
“Don’t worry. With our relationship, how can we let this happen?” President Yuan said.
“I’ll make sure Chen Dayong comes to the banquet today happy but leaves disappointed.”
“Hahaha!” The bald man laughed heartily. “That’s great. By the way, I brought a batch of good tea leaves a while ago. You have to taste them later!”
As he spoke, he took out a large metal box from his bag.
“Hahaha!” President Yuan laughed heartily. “Then I won’t stand on ceremony!”
…
As a landmark building in Jiangbei, the Imperial Hotel was as usual. Men and women in gorgeous clothes and suits were coming in and out. Business was very good.
Chen Dayong came to the front desk and asked anxiously, “There are no more private rooms?”
“Yes,” the attendant replied.
Chen Dayong’s expression turned ugly when he heard that.
One had to know…
Today, he had invited the branch president of Tiantian Bank.
How could he entertain him in the main hall?
If the other party got angry because of this, what should he do about the problem of Huanhai Company’s funds?
Should he tell President Yuan to change places?
The other party would probably not be happy to hear that!
Just as Chen Dayong was at his wit’s end, Chen Xin said happily, “Lin Fan, you’re here!”
Then, she held Lin Fan’s arm and said, “Dad, Mom, this is Lin Fan.”
Lin Fan said, “Hello, Uncle and Aunt.”
Li Rong secretly sized up Lin Fan.
She looked at Lin Fan’s tall figure and well-defined facial features. She said in satisfaction, “Lin Fan, long time no see.”
Chen Dayong was a little upset because there were no more private rooms.
Hence, he merely nodded his head at Lin Fan.
Then, he said to the attendant, “Are you sure there’s not a single private room left?”
“Yes,” the attendant replied.
“How long will it take if we wait?” Chen Dayong asked.
“We don’t know the exact time because we have to let the guests leave first. Our hotel doesn’t limit the time the guests can spend in the private rooms,” the waiter replied.
In order to earn more money, some hotels might limit the dining time of their guests.
This way, they could get more new customers to come in and spend money.
However, as a landmark building in Jiangbei, the Imperial Hotel naturally did not impose such a rule.
That was because it would greatly reduce the customer’s experience.
Lin Fan listened to their conversation and immediately understood that Uncle Chen wanted to book a private room.
At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded not far away.
The surrounding waiters greeted the man respectfully.
“Hello, General Manager.”
The person who came was the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, Wang Fengyi.
Wang Fengyi was not someone who liked to put on airs.
In the past, he would return the greeting one by one.
However, at this moment, he did not stop and quickened his pace toward the front desk.
It was because Wang Fengyi had seen Lin Fan!
Lin Fan also noticed Wang Fengyi. He rolled shifted his eyes and said, “I heard that guests can win a chance to use the VIP room for free at the Imperial Hotel. Is that true?”
Wang Fengyi was about to greet Lin Fan, but after hearing his words, he glanced at Chen Xin and the others. After thinking about it, he had some guesses.
He cleared his throat and said, “Of course, our Imperial Hotel’s lucky draw is real. May I ask if you want to participate?”
As Wang Fengyi spoke, he took out his phone and opened a QR code.
Lin Fan took out his phone and scanned the QR code.
Beep!
With a soft sound, the QR code was successfully scanned.
“Go and get the lucky draw box from our hotel,” Wang Fengyi said to the front desk staff.
“Huh?” The receptionist was a little confused.
She had no idea when the Imperial Hotel had a lucky draw to use the VIP room, let alone where the lucky draw box was.
“It’s the lottery box that you used last night.” Wang Fengyi frowned.
“Ah… Alright… Alright.” The receptionist was completely dumbfounded.
She naturally knew about the lucky draw box that she had used yesterday.
However… was that not the employees’ lucky draw?
Although the receptionist was full of doubts, she still walked toward the staff breakroom.
