January 1st.
Chen Ningxi got ready early, picked an appropriate business outfit from her wardrobe, and headed out.
At this time, Cheng Qiaobei was busy inside the hotel. The day before, the hotel executives had already checked in. Xu Yunheng and several other executives were staying in the hotel's presidential suite, with a unified reception standard aimed at keeping Xu Yunheng satisfied.
It was about time, so Cheng Qiaobei began to call the department heads to invite the executives downstairs. Mr. Cheng and Vice President Xu were personally invited by him.
Cheng Qiaobei knocked on Xu Yunheng's door, and Xu's secretary greeted him with an apologetic face and said,
"Sorry, Manager Cheng, Vice President Xu wasn't feeling well just now. He took some medicine and is resting in his room."
The secretary did not say whether Xu Yunheng would still attend the opening ceremony, nor did he advise Cheng Qiaobei to wait for him.
