Although no one explicitly stated which seat was the most honorable, in this kind of occasion, the seat indicated the relationship between the guest and the host.
The closer they were, the better their relationship was, or the higher their status was.
Jian Yiling was now Zhai Yunsheng's fiancée. Her status was indeed honorable.
However, no one expected him to give the seat on his right to Jian Yiling.
This meant that in Zhang Xuming's heart, Jian Yiling was the one that he valued the most among all the guests today.
Wen Ruo looked at Jian Yiling who was sitting in the center of attention. She thought about how Zhai Yunsheng had brought all of this to her. There was an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Then, she lowered her head to look at herself.
Those who were not so close to Zhang Xuming and were unable to predict the arrival of the guests were not seated in a fixed position. Their names were not written in front of their seats.
She and Zhu Zimo belonged to this category of ordinary guests.
There was a huge gap between the most important guests and ordinary guests.
Compared to the Jian family, the Wen family had more status and prestige in Beijing.
However, there was a significant difference in status between her and Jian Yiling.
As she thought of this, Wen Ruo glanced at Zhu Zimo who was beside her. For some reason, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Wei Qirui, who had met Jian Yiling once before, was also present today.
This was because he had business dealings with Xuming Medical Manufacturers.
As Wei Qirui's status was equally honorable, his seat was also arranged at the main table.
However, his seat was not as close to Zhang Xuming's seat.
When Wei Qirui saw Jian Yiling, he secretly sneered.
He looked down on this so-called matriarch of the Zhai family.
He had heard that she had just won the championship of a game.
It was ridiculous. The matriarch of the Zhai family only knew how to play games.
She did not have the demeanor of a matriarch at all.
As he did not recognize Jian Yiling as the matriarch of the Zhai family, Wei Qirui did not go up to greet her.
Wei Qirui was quite certain that Zhang Xuming had arranged this seat for Jian Yiling because of her status as the matriarch of the Zhai family.
However, there was still the word 'future' in front of the matriarch.
It was still unknown whether or not this "future" would come.
Most of the guests had arrived, and Zhang Xuming also sat down.
In addition to Jian Yiling and Wei Qirui, the other people at the table that Zhang Xuming was sitting at were all well-known figures in the industry. Most of them had a close relationship with Xuming Medical Manufacturers or Zhang Xuming himself.
Wei Qirui asked about the big news that Zhang Xuming was going to announce today.
"Old mister, what news are you going to announce today? It's already so late. Can you tell me a little?"
Zhang Xuming replied with a smile, "It's nothing new. It's just that I plan to retire."
Sure enough, as everyone had guessed, the news that Zhang Xuming wanted to announce was the news of his retirement.
He was already eighty years old. If he didn't retire now, he would really die at work.
At this time, someone next to him asked, "Mr. Zhang, do you mean that you've already found a successor?"
One of the main reasons why Zhang Xuming did not retire was because he could not find a suitable successor.
Otherwise, he would have retired ten years ago.
Zhang Xuming's face was full of smiles. He was in a very good mood. "Yes, I found it. Rather than saying I found it, it would be more accurate to say that I begged for it. "
