Helpless Mr. Wang

While Xu Ning sat on the sofa, admiring the tranquil and beautiful night view of the riverside, Chairman Wang and Assistant Zhao had already arrived at the Peninsula Hotel.

"If I had known, I would have booked the Peninsula Suite earlier!"

"It's not your fault. Who would have thought that the Peninsula Suite, which is mostly vacant, would be occupied today."

"It just so happens that Mr. Smith stayed in the Peninsula Suite last time he visited with his government officials and found it perfectly suited his taste. This time, he specifically requested to stay in the Peninsula Suite again."

"Let's see if we can negotiate with the Peninsula Hotel, or perhaps with the current occupant of the suite, to see if they would be willing to switch rooms."

Chairman Wang's brows were slightly furrowed, and his face showed distress, clearly overwhelmed by the current predicament.

Smith is the Wang Corporation's largest buyer in Europe. Over half of the Wang Corporation's business and more than 75% of its profits come from that region.

It's no exaggeration to say that Smith is the Wang Corporation's biggest benefactor.

This time, Smith flew from Europe to Modu to discuss the framework for their next collaboration.

Therefore, the Wang Corporation certainly needed to make Smith feel at home.

However, they didn't expect to be unable to fulfill Smith's very first small request.

Smith specifically asked to stay in the Peninsula Suite at the Peninsula Hotel because he particularly enjoyed sitting on the sofa and admiring the beautiful night view of the Huangpu River during his last stay.

Originally, this request should have been brought up during previous communications between both parties.

But there was a mistake on the European side, and the Wang Corporation only received the request when Smith's plane was about to land.

Assistant Zhao quickly called to book a room, but was informed that the Peninsula Suite was already occupied.

Having no other choice, Assistant Zhao could only go to the Peninsula Hotel with Chairman Wang to see if they could negotiate.

Chairman Wang was also very helpless; in fact, there were other hotels in Modu of the same caliber as the Peninsula Hotel, or even more luxurious.

Without mentioning anything else, the famous Peace Hotel was not far away.

The Presidential Suite at the Oriental Culture Hotel boasted an astonishing 788 square meters, making it even more luxurious and extravagant.

But Smith was set on the Peninsula Hotel, so what could he do?

When the two arrived, the general manager of the Peninsula Hotel was already waiting in the hotel lobby.

The Wang Corporation is very influential in Modu and is one of the Peninsula Hotel's major clients, not to mention Chairman Wang's own immense influence, all of which were reasons he could not afford to be disrespectful.

"Chairman Wang, hello, I apologize for making you come all this way personally." Seeing Chairman Wang, he quickly went forward to shake his hand.

Chairman Wang also extended his hand and shook his, "General Manager Chen, this time I'll have to trouble you!"

General Manager Chen also had a pained expression, with unspoken difficulties.

Although he very much wanted to help and didn't want to lose the Wang Corporation as a major client, he had to consider many other aspects.

The guest in the Peninsula Suite was staying comfortably; how could he just ask them to change rooms?

That's not how things are done!

If he were to operate directly like that, the Peninsula Hotel's reputation would be ruined!

Moreover, anyone capable of staying in a Presidential Suite is certainly no ordinary person.

If it was truly someone he couldn't afford to offend, would he come out of it unscathed?

Therefore, the Peninsula Hotel simply couldn't handle this matter directly.

He couldn't even give the contact information of the distinguished guest staying in the Peninsula Suite to the Wang Corporation.

What he could do was have the butler, with the most humble and sincere attitude, act as an intermediary for the Wang Corporation, to see if the guest was willing to meet and talk with the Wang Corporation.

If the guest was moved by the Wang Corporation themselves, then that would naturally be for the best.

If the guest refused, then he would also be powerless.

"Chairman Wang, I hope you can understand my difficulties."

"Let's wait in the reception room for a while. I have already asked the suite butler to speak with the distinguished guest staying in the Peninsula Suite about this matter."

"I hope everything goes smoothly!"

General Manager Chen said with a smile, while gesturing for Chairman Wang to follow him to the reception room.

Chairman Wang understood and naturally couldn't force the issue, so he could only helplessly await the outcome.

At this moment, Xiao You, the butler, dialed the phone in the suite, asking if she could enter.

Xu Ning thought she was there to deliver a meal, so he opened the door for her.

Xiao You bowed slightly, her voice pleasant and her tone respectful as she said,

"Young Master Xu, there is something I need to report to you now."

"The Wang Corporation's major European client has specifically requested to stay in our Peninsula Hotel's Presidential Suite, which is this Peninsula Suite."

"Our hotel would naturally not ask you to change rooms."

"However, the Chairman of the Wang Corporation has personally come to the Peninsula Hotel, hoping to speak with you in person."

"It seems this European client must be quite important to them, otherwise their Chairman would not appear in person."

"May I ask if you are willing to meet and talk with them?"

"If you are willing, we will arrange it immediately."

"If you are not willing, we will also decline the Wang Corporation."

Xu Ning couldn't help but frown slightly.

He encountered something like this?

He wasn't acting as a chauffeur now, was he?

How could there be an unexpected situation even when staying in a Presidential Suite?

He wasn't exactly annoyed, but feeling uncomfortable was certain.

"In such a big Modu, can't they find a Presidential Suite anywhere else besides the Peninsula Hotel?"

"I've already moved in, so there's no reason for me to vacate the room for someone else!"

"Go tell the Wang Corporation, there's nothing to discuss!"

Xu Ning waved his hand at Xiao You, the butler, signaling that she could leave.

Of course, he knew perfectly well that the Wang Corporation must have some business connection with the Peninsula Hotel, otherwise the Peninsula Hotel wouldn't be relaying this message.

Xiao You maintained a pleasant smile on her face, nodded in agreement, and gracefully turned to leave.

But just then, Xu Ning suddenly called out to her again, "Wait a moment!"

Wang Corporation?

Which Wang Corporation?

He didn't know much about Modu, let alone the businesses there.

However, he had just gone through a difficult journey chauffeuring from Didu to Modu, suffering quite a bit along the way.

And the person he chauffeured was also surnamed Wang.

Is it possible that Chairman Wang and the Wang Corporation have some connection?

Thinking of this, Xu Ning called out to the butler.

Then let's meet and talk.

If it wasn't him, it didn't matter either way.

But if it really was Chairman Wang, how could Xu Ning not give him face?

Not to mention the camaraderie they had forged on their journey, just the fact that Xu Ning had earned over 600 million from Chairman Wang made it impossible for him to refuse!

"Okay, Young Master Xu, please wait a moment!"

"Is it okay if I arrange for them to come to the suite to talk?"

Xu Ning nodded, then said, "Prepare some tea and refreshments."

After Xiao You left, Xu Ning returned to the large sofa, watching the shimmering reflections on the Huangpu River at night.

Meanwhile, in the reception area, when Chairman Wang and Assistant Zhao received the news that the distinguished guest in the Peninsula Suite had agreed to meet, they couldn't suppress their excitement, repeatedly exclaiming with delight.
