Chapter 286: Chapter 285 No Car?

After hanging up the phone, the eldest aunt’s complexion immediately turned extremely ugly. She took a deep breath and whispered, "Second uncle, Boss Zhou said he urgently needed the car, so his car won’t be able to attend the wedding tomorrow!"

"Ah?" The second uncle was also taken aback, but he quickly regained his composure and chuckled, "No problem, there are more than a hundred cars..."

Before the second uncle could finish, the eldest uncle’s phone also began to ring. And the news he received was the same; a friend’s car was suddenly unavailable as well.

Then, the third uncle, second aunt, eldest uncle, and eldest aunt, even the second uncle himself, had their phones ringing ceaselessly.

In less than an hour, all the cars they had borrowed had called to inform them that they were urgently needed elsewhere and could not be provided.

Everyone was nearly going insane. One or two cars having issues was forgivable, but over a hundred cars all calling to say they were unavailable at the same time? What kind of bloody joke was this? How could they all coincidentally have issues?

Zhao Xuefen leisurely sipped her tea; she too was disappointed with these relatives and didn’t bother to interject. She knew for sure this must be Su Yang’s doing.

"What... what do we do now..." The second uncle was frantically pacing, "The wedding is tomorrow, without the cars, what do we do..."

Everyone else was also at a loss when the eldest aunt suddenly gritted her teeth, "No problem, I’ll immediately arrange for cars from the provincial city. Although the cars we’ll get this time probably won’t be as good as before, let’s just deal with the situation at hand!"

"That’s the only way to go!" The eldest uncle nodded, "I’ll make arrangements too!"

"I’ll help too!"

Everyone took out their phones and began making calls to arrange for vehicles.

An hour later, everyone had hung up their phones, and the vehicle issue was finally settled.

Right at that moment, another call came through to the eldest uncle’s phone.

"Ah, Boss Kang, the owner of the Yabin Hotel!" The eldest uncle laughed heartily and put the phone on speaker on the table, "Boss Kang, hello!"

"Old Zhao, something has come up, and I’m really sorry, but the rooms you requested are probably not available anymore," a rushed voice came from the other end.

"Ah?" The eldest uncle was stunned, "Old Kang, what’s going on? My nephew is getting married tomorrow, what... what are you doing?"

"It’s not that, some high-profile figures from the province are coming to stay at my hotel, and they’ve booked the entire place; I... I really can’t do anything about it..."

"Damn, who are these high-profile figures that they are so powerful!" The eldest uncle said angrily.

"I don’t know exactly, but among them, there seems to be the CEO of the Wanzhong Corporation!"

"What?" The eldest uncle almost jumped up, "Are you joking? The CEO of the Wanzhong Corporation, staying at your Yabin Hotel? They always stay at five-star hotels when travelling, why wouldn’t they stay at the best hotel in Nanluo City, the Nandu Hotel?"

"The Nandu Hotel is already fully booked..."

"Damn, a five-star hotel, fully booked? Are you kidding me?" The eldest uncle glared, "Besides, the CEO of the Wanzhong Corporation, no matter how full the hotels are, wouldn’t they have a place for him?"

"It’s really impossible!" Boss Kang said in a low voice, "I heard that the Nandu Hotel is hosting people from the Ten Great Families from the provincial city, including Nan Wudi and Qin Haishan staying there!"

"..." The eldest uncle was rendered speechless, "What the hell? What are Nan Wudi and Qin Haishan doing in Nanluo City?"

"I really can’t help you, that’s all, let’s chat another time!"

Boss Kang hung up the phone, leaving the eldest uncle dumbfounded. With the CEO of the Wanzhong Corporation staying at the Yabin, what more could he say?

As if things were not bad enough, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the owner of the Sheraton walked in.

"Hey, General Manager Zhang!" The eldest aunt immediately stood up, smiling, "Let me introduce everyone, this is the owner of the Sheraton, General Manager Zhang..."

"Enough, enough!" General Manager Zhang gestured with his hands, "No need for introductions, I’ve come to tell everyone personally. I’m really sorry, but the hotel can’t be used tomorrow either."

"Ah?" Everyone was taken aback, and the eldest aunt was close to exploding, "What’s going on? Everything was fine before, why can’t it be used now? My nephew is getting married, what kind of joke is this?"

"Old Zhao, I’m not joking!" General Manager Zhang said, "Tomorrow, someone has already booked the Sheraton, and it will not be open to the public!"

"But I reserved it first!" the eldest aunt said anxiously.

"I know, which is why we will compensate you triple the amount according to the contract. This business, we really can’t take it!" General Manager Zhang said apologetically.

The eldest aunt was furious, "This isn’t about triple compensation or not! Who is so audacious? I booked the hotel, and they want to take my spot? Call them here, I want to ask them personally, what’s so great about them!"

"That..." General Manager Zhang scratched his head and spoke in a low voice, "That might be inconvenient!"

"What’s so inconvenient? Call them here now!" the eldest aunt demanded furiously.

General Manager Zhang said, "It’s the CEO of the Yikang Corporation and also the CEO of the Wanzhong Corporation; they and a few other corporations jointly booked the Sheraton!"

The eldest aunt: "..."

She finally understood what the inconvenience was. Such high-profile figures were simply out of her league to meet.

"Alright, you folks carry on. This meal is also on us, sorry about that!" General Manager Zhang walked out.

The room fell into silence; the cars were gone, the hotel was gone, the inn was gone, could there be anything more unlucky?

Just then, another call came to the eldest aunt’s phone, "Old Zhao, I’m so sorry, our emcee has something urgent tomorrow and really can’t make it. Please make other arrangements, that’s all!"

After finishing the two sentences, the call was promptly ended, leaving the eldest aunt no chance to inquire further.

The eldest aunt slumped down, but the ordeal wasn’t over yet, as the phone rang again.

The eldest aunt looked at the caller ID and answered languidly, "Old Dong, are you also unable to come?"

"I’m already on my way!"

The eldest aunt’s spirits were immediately lifted as if a drowning person had seen a savior, she exclaimed, "That’s wonderful, that’s wonderful, Old Dong, you’re such a reliable friend!"

Everyone else was also delighted; at least one thing was going right.

"But when I’ll arrive, that’s hard to say!" Old Dong said.

"Ah?" The eldest aunt was confused, "What happened?"

"Don’t you know? The highway is jammed solid!" Old Dong said, "My car has just entered the expressway, and it’s ten kilometers from the highway entrance, and traffic is at a standstill. The road is full of cars, and at this rate, I’ll probably not get onto the highway until midnight! It’s likely jammed on the highway too, whether I can arrive by noon tomorrow is anybody’s guess."

"What... What exactly happened?" the eldest aunt asked frantically, "It’s late at night, not a holiday or festival, why... why is it so congested?"

"How would I know? But all the way here, all the cars are luxury ones, Ferraris and Lamborghinis are all stuck beside me, what can I say! Wow, there’s even a Rolls-Royce ahead, wow, to be stuck in traffic with such cars, what an honor!"
