Xia Enruo and Gu Shaoxuan arrived at the Heshun Four Seasons Hotel, where the manager, having received the news, led a group of people to greet them at the hotel entrance.
"President Xia, why didn't you tell me you were coming? It was Secretary Zhao who called to inform me."
Lu Dekai, the lobby manager of Heshun Siji, was specifically poached by Xia Enruo from the Yongning Sugar Factory.
He used to be the head of the personnel department at the Yongning City Sugar Factory. After Xia Enru bought the sugar factory's warehouse and started a company, they became neighbors.
I run into you every day on my way to work, and we've gotten to know each other over time.
Lu Dekai was honest and kind, and had outstanding abilities, but he lacked connections in the state-owned enterprise and remained stuck in the middle management level, unable to get promoted.
Finally, Xia Enruo extended an olive branch to him, and because of the generous offer, he gladly agreed to come and work there.
"The situation was unexpected, so we arrived ahead of schedule."
"Mr. Xia, I have arranged for my staff to clean the presidential suite that you asked me to reserve. You can check in directly when it's ready."
Xia Enruo and Gu Shaoxuan walked into the hotel lobby, surrounded by a group of people who respectfully fawned over them like stars around the moon, waiting for Xia Enruo to give instructions.
The coffee shop on the west side of the lobby was full of customers. Seeing this, you could tell that the people who had arrived were important, as they had even attracted the attention of the manager and so many employees.
"Manager Lu, could you ask the front desk to check if a guest named Gu Zhiyuan checked in just now?"
Lu Dekai didn't dare to delay and quickly had the front desk staff check the information.
"Mr. Xia, a guest named Gu Zhiyuan did check in, but there were four of them. They were led by Secretary Zhou of the Municipal Party Committee to check in and booked three business rooms."
"Upgrade their rooms. Gu Zhiyuan, Wang Meihua, and Gu Shaoying were upgraded to the presidential suite, and the other person was also upgraded to the business suite."
Lu Dekai's eyes flickered as he understood, and he respectfully said:
"President Xia, Mr. Gu Zhiyuan must be your father. I was confused and didn't recognize him, so I let them go to the business room."
"It's alright, it's not your fault. Just ask the housekeeping department to change your room."
Also, please prepare breakfast in a private room on the third floor; we'll be coming down for lunch in a bit.
"Yes, Mr. Xia. I'll arrange it right away."

Wang Meihua was packing her suitcase in the room when Gu Shaoying, feeling a bit hungry, urged her to hurry up.
"Dad, Mom. When are my older brother and sister-in-law coming over? My stomach is rumbling."
Wang Meihua said:
"Wait a little longer, they should be here soon. I just called to tell them to come. This whole thing is our fault; we had planned to go directly to the school to register you."
"I didn't expect to arrive here first. Your older brother and sister-in-law will need time to get there; have some candied fruit to tide you over."
As we were talking, the doorbell rang.
Gu Shaoying excitedly thought her elder brother and sister-in-law had arrived and shouted:
"It must be, my brother and sister-in-law have arrived. Speak of the devil and he appears."
After Wang Meihua opened the door, she saw several service staff standing at the entrance. The woman in the lead, dressed in a black suit, smiled and said:
"Hello, guests. Our manager said we'd be upgrading you to the presidential suite. Please follow me; our staff will help you with your luggage."
Wang Meihua was stunned after hearing this.
"Presidential Suite? Are you sure you're not mistaken? We didn't book that. This place is fine for us."
"Auntie, there's no mistake. Our manager arranged this personally. Just follow me."
Wang Meihua was at a loss; she didn't know what was going on.
All she knew was that presidential suites must be very expensive, and how could her family afford to stay in one!
"Old Gu, come here quickly, come here quickly."
Gu Zhiyuan came out from the inner room after hearing the noise.
"What's wrong, Meihua?"
"This lady said she wanted to change our rooms, to the presidential suite. What... what should we do..."
Wang Meihua was at a loss, so she could only ask her husband to come out and find out what was going on.
Gu Zhiyuan assumed that Zhou Yannan was worried that his room was too small and had specially moved him to a larger room.
Staying in a five-star hotel this time was already inappropriate, but fortunately it was for a private matter and I paid for it myself, so no one can say anything. If I stayed in a presidential suite, wouldn't that be too ostentatious and it would be too bad if word got out?
"Comrades, there's no need to trouble you. We'll stay here. You can go back and continue with your work."
Just as he finished speaking, a sound came from inside the hallway.
"Yes, yes."
Xia Enruo walked in, holding Gu Shaoxuan's arm.
"Mom and Dad, thank you for waiting."
Gu Shaoxuan greeted him.
"Shaoxuan. Oh, my precious son, I'm so glad to see you. I missed you so much."
Wang Meihua's eyes reddened as she hugged Gu Shaoxuan and said excitedly.
"dad!"
Gu Shaoxuan called out again.
"Hello, Mom and Dad. Shaoxuan and I rushed here as fast as we could, afraid of being late. You two must be hungry. Let's pack up and go downstairs to eat."
When Gu Zhiyuan saw how sensible his daughter-in-law was, he realized that, just as his wife and daughter had said, she had completely changed.
She's completely different from when she first got married; she's not only poised and confident, but she also speaks with much more competence.
His gaze fell on Xia Enruo's slightly protruding belly, and he silently rejoiced:
"Son. Enruo, what's this?"
Gu Shaoxuan knew his father had seen through him, so he replied:
"Dad, Enruo is more than six months pregnant, and the doctor said it's twins."
"Good, good, good! That's wonderful! My Gu family is finally going to have a new member. You brat, your wife is pregnant and you didn't even tell the family."
