Just as they were talking, someone knocked on the door suddenly.
Director Ledger answered, “Please come in…”
A middle-aged woman opened the door and leaned halfway in, saying in a hurry, “Director Ledger, the VIP is coming! The principal told us to go downstairs and wait for the reception!”
Hearing this, Director Ledger asked in surprise, “Really? So soon? I thought they were arriving at noon or in the afternoon.”
The woman looked at the three guests and said, “I guess we can’t make it to the school gate to meet them, so we’ll have to wait downstairs.”
The new campus of Aurous Hill University covered an area of about 5,000 acres and the distance from the school gate to the academic building was quite far. If a group of middle-aged and elderly people were to walk there, it would take at least ten or twenty minutes.
The woman said, “Director Ledger, hurry up, the principal asked me to be downstairs in three minutes and I have to notify the others.”
The woman then left in a hurry.
Director Ledger apologized to Isaac, saying, “President Cameron, I’m really sorry, the incident happened so suddenly, please come back another day, if you have time!”
Isaac replied, “Let’s meet at the hotel someday and I’ll be the host!”
Director Ledger nodded quickly and said, “Okay, I’ll definitely come to visit you when I’m done with recruiting students these days.”
He added, “By the way, Mr. Cameron, my son found a girlfriend and they suddenly told me that they have obtained a flash marriage certificate and are getting married on October 1st…”
“He is currently looking at a wedding banquet hotel, but October 1st is a big day, most of the hotel banquet halls were fully booked a few months ago and they both want to hold the wedding in Shangri-La. I wonder if there is any vacancy in Shangri-La?”
Isaac answered without hesitation, “Director Ledger, don’t worry, I’ll take care of that. The hotel rooms and banquet halls in Shangri-La are always available. On the first day of the month, the Splendid Years Hall was also specially reserved for this kind of occasion, it’s the second best banquet hall in Shangri-La after the Sky Garden…”
“Just ask your son and daughter-in-law to come to Shangri-La and find me, I’ll take them to see the venue in person. If they like it, it’s yours to use.”
Director Ledger became excited and said gratefully, “Thank you so much, Mr. Cameron! You have solved my urgent need! I will take them to Shangri-La this afternoon to visit!”
In China, it was common for people to get married and hold events on specific dates. The primary reason was that there were only a few days in a year that were considered auspicious for marriage and most weddings were held on these days. As a result, many couples might hold their weddings in the same community on the same day.
October 1st was a particularly popular day for weddings as it was a national holiday and the weather was generally comfortable in most parts of the country. However, booking a high-end hotel for a wedding on such a popular day required planning well in advance, usually it took at least six months.
Director Ledger’s son was getting married on short notice and only had about two months to plan. This had caused anxiety for his family.
Director Ledger had previously wanted to ask Isaac for help, but favonovel.com was abroad at the time. Today, when Isaac came for business, favonovel.com tentatively brought up his problem.
