LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 74: Xiao bai's arrival
"Ge'er! I thought you despised attending public gatherings,so what made you decide to attend today's event?You never said a word about attending the anniversary when we held our last meeting",Lie Feitian asked trying to hide his displeasure.His spies had already informed him that the CEO was going to attend the banquet today,so that was the sole reason why he paid the reporters a very hefty amount of money in order for them to utterly embarrassed Lie Ruge in front of the whole world.But he could tell by how calm Lie Ruge expression was that his first plan has failed.
"Point of correction,It's CEO Lie,not Ge'er.Due to your position I will pardon you,if it was someone else who committed this outrageous mistake,he/she would have not gone scot free.So be thankful because your position just saved you but be very careful not to make the same mistake again or else I will have to punish you accordingly",Lie Ruge stated sternly.
"Is it wrong of me to call my niece by her pet name?I'm still your elder and family after all,isn't it?",Lie Feitian asked.
"Did you just say family?I don't remember having a family member like you before.And I saw your petty little display out there,it was such a waste of your precious money trying to get some dirt on me.I won't tolerate such nonsense next time,be it from my so called family members or not.Tell my aunts that I really loved their previous presents and I will make sure to return it back a hundred-fold",Lie Ruge said while walking away.Lie Feitian felt embarrassed,people were looking at him in such a low manner.Tuis was the thoughts on all the socialites minds,"How can an uncle dare to scheme against his niece in such a big event like that of today?That serves him right"..She was a not bit interested in all those people who were trying very hard to win her favour.She was worried as to why Xiao Bai has not arrived yet.Everyone eyes was monitoring Lie Ruge's every move.They were still marvelled by how a human could be so perfect from head to toe.People were so envious of her,forgetting the story behind this woman's success.Forgetting all the sufferings and hardships she went through,including all the sleepless nights she had to pull to get to the top.
A few minutes later,Xiao Bai finally arrived holding unto Yun Yi's arm,giving everyone a pleasant smile.Everyone was charmed by her beautiful smile.She was a beauty to behold.There is no one who was not aware of the fact that after CEO Lie's unrivalled beauty,Xiao Bai was the second.Tan Fan had made sure to tag along with this two couples.The socialites started yet again with their endless chattering and gossips.
"Look at that handsome guy strolling along with Miss Xiao Bai and her date.Who are they?They look quite familiar",
"Is something wrong with your eyes?You can't tell who this two dazzling Young men are?They are usually called the Three Pretty Guys Of All Times.There are the three most prominent Young Men Major City has ever had.I wonder why Young Master Yi is not with them?",
"Yeah,that is true.There were always seen together,I wonder why Young Master Yi is not here.I really wish he will attend today's banquet bacause it has been my dream to seduce him since the first time I first lay my eyes on him",
"I heard he doesn't spare any lady a second glance no matter how beautiful the lady is",
"Hahaha.....that is so hilarious.Young Master Yi is said to be incapacitated as a man,so you have to suppress all your urges and desires",
"Are you sure of that?",A guy's voice echoed.
"Of course,my best friend even attempted to seduce him but he treated her like air.Wait,who asked such a stupid question?I almost mistook the person's voice for a guy's own",The lady asked turning her gaze to face the person who had ask her the question.
"Oh my gosh! It's Young Master Yun",
"Ssshhh! I won't tell on you but watch your mouth or you might get hit by something unbelievably gigantic",Yun Yi quickly shut them up while trying to get a chance to talk to Lie Ruge who was crowded by many businessmen and women.At the extreme corner of the room,a man could be seen sitting down quietly in the dark while sipping his wine.He was tailing one lady's every move,all his attention was focused on this particular lady.Too bad she wasn't the type to give him a second glance.He now realized how all those ladies he rejected must have felt.He wondered why his heart was aching so badly.
"Excuse me,I have some other things to attain to",Lie Ruge excused herself from the midst of the crowd.Lie Changle who was sitting down just a few distance away from Lie Ruge,was trying to come up with the perfect plan in order to get Lie Ruge to somehow messed up the banquet.
"Hello sister-in-law,I could barely recognized you in this grand dress of yours.You look so pretty with your hair loosened.I really love seeing your hair not tied",Yun Yi remarked.
"Yeah,my Ge'er is always the prettiest no matter whatever she puts on",Xiao Bai replied delightedly.
"Sister-in-law,its so nice seeing you again.Have you seen Third bro?",Tan Fan asked.
"No,was he supposed to be here?",Lie Ruge asked.She remembered him asking her to be his date but after that he never mentioned that he was gonna attend the banquet.
"Of course,Fei Yan reported to us that Third bro left his Mansion to the banquet almost an hour ago,so it means that he was already here before your arrival",Yun Yi confirmed her doubts.
"You can't be serious.How come I have not heard any one mention his name since I arrived?",Lie Ruge ask in surprise.
