The trusted subordinate hurriedly responded, "Those famous performers have all accepted other gigs, and they can't come to perform and entertain."
"Only a few apprentices are left, barely enough to make do."
Sun Yongkang's mind was instantly thrown into upheaval. How could it all happen at once that they all had performance tasks?
"Apprentices it is then. As long as they can make do."
Sun Yongkang rubbed his forehead, "How's the preparation of roses going? There shouldn't be any mishaps, right?"
The trusted subordinate was on the verge of tears, "Sun, I've checked out all the flower shops, but couldn't buy a single rose."
What?
Sun Yongkang couldn't sit still anymore and shouted loudly, "There are so many flower shops in Zhonghai City District, I don't believe I can't buy a single rose!"
"Sun, really, I wasn't lazy at all. They are truly sold out, not one left," the subordinate was quite helpless.
"How could they all be sold out? Who bought them?" Sun Yongkang asked coldly.
"It seems like some big client yesterday swept through all the major flower shops and bought all the roses in stock."
The subordinate sighed, "We should have acted earlier; it wouldn't have been so passive then."
Sun Yongkang was so angry he felt like he might spit blood. Today is such a bad start!
The plan he orchestrated has all encountered mishaps.
Unacceptable!
"Sun, what should we do now?" The subordinate looked at him, unsure of what to decide.
Sun Yongkang suppressed his anger, "Use lilies as substitutes, the effect is the same."
"Quickly go prepare, we can't afford more mishaps."
"Yes, Sun." The subordinate quickly went to prepare.
Meanwhile.
Inside the New Moon Company office.
Lin Wanxi stared at Chen Xuan with a peculiar expression, "Days have passed without seeing you take action, are you planning to give up?"
Chen Xuan chuckled, "How do you know I haven't taken action?"
"You hardly leave the company, where could any action come from?" Lin Wanxi glanced at him.
Chen Xuan chuckled lightly, "A man of action doesn't necessarily have to personally get involved."
"Just need to provide the specific plan for the staff to carry out."
Aha!
Lin Wanxi smirked contemptuously, "You sure are narcissistic and remarkably composed."
"I just find it curious, aren't you worried about losing at all? Are you so confident you can win against Sun Yongkang?"
"It's not confidence; I simply don't consider that guy worth my attention," Chen Xuan laughed disdainfully, "You'll understand after work."
Lin Wanxi smirked, "Fine, I'll wait to see your masterpiece on defeating Sun Yongkang."
Seemingly unperturbed on the surface, but inside she couldn't stop wondering.
What kind of spectacular play has this guy secretly prepared?
So mysterious!
Full of curiosity and eagerly anticipating.
...
Around five in the afternoon, Lin Wanxi and Chen Xuan left work to go home.
Zhang Ru was already dressed up, looking very glamorous.
Others might think she was attending some important event tonight.
"Old Lin, get yourself ready too; tonight Sun Yongkang has carefully prepared a theatrical program for us."
Zhang Ru appeared excited and joyful, humming a tune.
Lin Zhiguo didn't respond but looked towards Chen Xuan, wondering if he was prepared.
Lin Wanxi also looked at him with a half-smile, as if saying, "The real test is upon you; don't mess up at the crucial moment."
Chen Xuan returned a smile, signaling he was fine.
At this moment, Sun Yongkang drove up.
"Little Sun, we've been waiting for you! Today is a great day; look, I even dressed up in advance, hahaha."
Zhang Ru greeted him with a smile, "Let's head to Zhonghai International Hotel now; I haven't eaten there before."
Sun Yongkang laughed awkwardly, "Aunt Zhang, a small mishap happened."
"Zhonghai International Hotel was occupied by someone else first; we had to switch to Zhongdu Hotel."
Zhang Ru froze but then laughed, "No problem, Zhongdu Hotel isn't low in grade either."
"Still better than that useless Chen Xuan!"
Chen Xuan scoffed, "You promised Zhonghai International Hotel but suddenly switched to Zhongdu Hotel."
"Clearly a downgrade, how's it better than me?"
Sun Yongkang's face turned sour with sarcasm, "Yes, I've lowered the hotel's grade, but what about you?"
"Even Zhongdu Hotel is beyond your reach!"
Zhang Ru spoke up immediately, "Chen Xuan, what gives you the right to compete with Sun Yongkang?"
"Dare to look down on Zhongdu Hotel, show me a higher-grade hotel, beat Sun Yongkang and let me see! Can you do it? Have the strength? Look down on you!"
Chen Xuan smiled, "How about the Zhonghai Ming Pearl Tower revolving restaurant? Is that enough to outshine Zhongdu Hotel!"
Huh?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ru and Sun Yongkang were both dumbstruck.
Lin Wanxi and Lin Zhiguo were evidently shocked too.
Did Chen Xuan really book the Zhonghai Ming Pearl Tower revolving restaurant?
No way, is this some kind of international joke?
