Chapter 177 - The Young Miss Of Bai Family

On the day of the Business awards, Zhang Zhi Jun personally drove to Jing university to pick Li Juan. Since it was her first time representing Bai corporation as their heir, Bai Zhu insisted her to accompany Zhang Zhi Jun and Bai Yu. Unable to ignore their request, Li Juan decided to go with them. 

"Are you tensed, majesty?" Zhang Zhi Jun tried to initiate a talk with Li Juan who appeared silent as they headed towards his condominium.

"Whenever I hear about party, I get nervous without any reasons. I don't know why, but  parties are not my thing," She said with dispirited tone.

"Don't worry we will be with you, there is no need to worry," He assured her, "I heard that you refused to get your own place,"

"I didn't refuse. It just I didn't get a place of my liking,"

Zhang Zhi Jun tilted his head and looked at Li Juan with dubious eyes. There is no way that Bai family would failed to cater the needs of their beloved Queen. Then what is she talking about?

"I live with my friend, next to the university," She stated even before he asked, "First brother, when did you return after shooting overseas?"

"Last week,"

"Oh then why didn't tell me? I would've come and visited you," Her big black eyes shows a sulky expression,

"I was busy with the practices. You know, I am performing today,"

"Really, do I get to see you singing live?" The morose and sullen look on her face immediately brightened up,

"Of course," He affirmed with a radiant smile, 

How can he forget that Li Juan still adores her idol?

While they were immersed in the conversation, Zhang Zhi Jun's car entered into the underground parking lot of the "Sky castle," the highest residential building in the Jing city. As per Zhang Zhi Jun's order a group of well know stylists and make up artists were waiting for preparing Li Juan for the award night.

"Isn't it a bit extra vagant?" Li Juan asked in a low voice as she saw the her outfit for the night,"

"Ofcourse not. Aunt Wu put an entire month's effort to create this outfit for the Queen," Zhang Zhi Jun said proudly, "Today you are going to meet everyone as Bai Yue Ling, the young miss of Bai family,"

Li Juan faintly smiled and nodded in agreement,

It is going to be an important day in her life and it will be a cherry on top if she looks a little prettier,

-------------------

The annual business guild awards was extraordinarily grand every year. Apart from the business men in the C country and overseas, the ceremony was also open to the top celebrities and even politicians. The authorized personnel behind the show had put in tremendous effort to make a grand ceremony lavish, had even invited all the influential media.

The extravagantly decorated entrance has become a red carpet for the influential people in the political-economic field of C country.

Hundreds of cameras flashed continuously as the guests arrived,

Various A-list celebrities posed for the photographs and signed autographs for their fans.

As the reporters were busy interviewing the guests, a matte black limousine stopped in front of the red carpet, gaining attention from everyone,

The door of the limo was opened and Zhang Zhi Jun's towering frame stepped out elegantly,

"Ahhhh.... it is Zhang Zhi Jun," The crowd broke into a loud cheer,

As the cameras flashed, Zhang Zhi Jun gave them a hearty smile and give way for Bai Yu, who got down from the car with a proud face,

"Eh? Zhang Zhi Jun brought a young man as his companion for the night?" The fans bawled,

However the next moment, Zhang Zhi Jun moved towards the door and reached out his neatly cuffed arm to support someone,

"Some one else is with him?"

"Who is his companion for the night? Is that his onscreen pair, the angel "Ning Jing?"

The moment a woman got down from the limousine, the crowd's eyes were glazed over,

At the end of the carpet, Li Juan stood wearing an extremely lavish black gown adorned with various shiny gems, making her sparkle like a diamond. Her big Stygian eyes releasing a mysterious aura which no one can ignore,

After the photographers saw her, they forgot their to click the pictures for a moment,

Even though Li Juan wore an extremely breathtaking gown, her magnificent charisma and elegance was on par with her title of the Queen of the Yu palace.

"Beautiful!!!"

"Who is this woman?"

"Oh My God, is she Zhang Zhi Jun's girl friend? Is that why he didn't appear in any dating rumors?"

"She is an absolute queen,"

Li Juan regally floated over the carpet with the escort of her cousins at both of her sides, like her knights in armor,

She moved so gracefully and elegantly, making it hard for one to look away,

Who is this ravishing beauty who holds such a strong aura?

"Is that Li Juan?" Xie Long was the first one to recognize Li Juan, "What is she doing with Bro Jun?"

"Aish, why is she sticking up to him?" Mo Yan cussed as he saw the woman who was walking with his colleague, as he settled down with his friends,

"I thought he has a girlfriend," Min Zhe commented,

"It is his girlfriend," Ye Ling declared and waved his hands at Zhang Zhi Jun who settled down not so far from him, 

"What? How can it be?" Xie Long was totally perplexed and moved his head towards the other side

"Hey look there it is Tang Wei Sheng," He shouted and shifted his friends attention to the man who sat with a brooded expression over his face.

"If she is Li Juan and then you can see the real drama," Mo Yan sneered, 

All the guests arrived slowly and within in an hour the grand ceremony started with Zhang Zhi Jun's song along with paino recital,

Accompanied by the sound of applause and emotional shrieks of fan girls, he started to sing in his famous lyrical baritone voice, leading the people in luxurious hall into seventh heaven.

Li Juan who got mesmerized by his stage presence, gaped at him like a fan girl,

Once the opening ceremony was over, the award presentation started, one by one various awards in different categories has been distributed,

"The next award is for the corporation which obtained the highest turnover from the overseas market," The host of the ceremony announced, "In order to announce the awards, I would like to invite, Ning Zhao, CEO of Ning group and our favorite, nation's angel, Miss Ning Jing,"

With a loud round of applause, an old man in his sixties came to the stage along with Ning Jing who was donned in a white mermaid gown.

"Good evening one and all," Ning Zhao greeted and bowed the audience, "It is an extreme pleasure to meet you all,  along with my niece. I hope everyone will have a wonderful year ahead,"

Ning Jing who smiled sweetly before the audience, took the envelope containing the results,

"The award goes to, Bai Jewels and Gems,"

As the head of the Jewellery business section of the Bai corporation, it was Bai Mo who went to collect the award.

"On this occasion, I want to thank our employees and customers for believing in us and we are extremely glad to announce that from the new year, Bai corporation's management is going to undergo a prominent change,"

"May I ask more about it?" Ning Zhao asked as a friendly gesture,

"To follow the latest trends in the business world, we are welcoming our youngest generation to be the part of Bai corporations and lead us to a greater tomorrow," Bai Mo declared with a cheerful face, "Is it okay if I call them over to the dais?"

"It will be an honor, sir," The host said, 

"With everyone's permission,  I would like to call our new directors over to the dais,"

Zhang Zhi Jun and Bai Yu stood up from their respective seats.

"Jie, you are not coming?" Bai Yu asked the woman who was applauding for her brothers.

"Me? For what?" Li Juan who was not aware of the whole situation asked in doubt,

"Come with us," Bai Yu took her hand and walked towards the stage along with Zhang Zhi Jun,

"Why Zhang Zhi Jun is with them?" The audience were curious, "Woahhh, who are these good looking people?"

The trio bowed before everyone and Bai Mo passed the microphone to Zhang Zhi Jun,

"Good evening everyone, I am Zhang Zhi Jun," He introduced himself with a smile, "but I have another name, I am Bai Jun, the eldest son of Bai family and these two are our new directors as well as my siblings,"

"Zhang Zhi Jun is from Bai family?" No one could believe it. He is young master of one of the top five corporation in the country.

Zhang Zhi Jun handed over the microphone to his brother for introduction,

"Good evening, I am Bai Yu," He quickly said and gave the microphone to his siter,

"Good evening everyone, I am Bai Yue Ling," Li Juan introduced herself with a pleasant smile,

The audience gaped in disbelief, this beauty belonged to Bai family? That too Zhang Zhi Jun's sister?

"We seek your blessings and wishes on our new venture. Thank you," Bai Mo thanked everyone and left the stage with the trio,

"Second uncle," As soon as Li Juan left the vicinity of the stage, called Bai Mo in confusion.

Bai Mo who understood the reason of his niece's puzzlement, patted her shoulder in appreciation,

"We are officially getting a separate division for the excavations and mining and father wants you to be the head of it," He said in high spirits,

"Congratulations," Bai Yu hugged his sister, "Director Bai Yue Ling,"

"You know it before?" Li Juan widened her eyes in disbelief. She had no idea about the new director position which is bestowed upon her.

"Of course, I knew it,"

Li Juan pursed her lips and was lost in thoughts, 

She did promise her family that, she will join Bai corporation after her research, however, Bai Mo had announced it ahead of time,

"The next award is for the youngest achiever of the year and to felicitate the award, i would like to invite, the last year's recipient, Mr. Chen Hao," 

A handsome man in early thirties arrived at the stage and greeted the audience,

"The award goes to Tang Wei Sheng of the Tang Corporation, congratulations,"

Once the award was announced, Tang Wei Sheng strode towards the stage in an elegant gait,

"CEO Tang, first of all let me congratulate you for becoming the CEO of the largest conglomerate of the C country, can you express your views on winning such a title?" The host asked Tang Wei Sheng,

"Good evening one and all," He faintly smiled and continued, "Youngest achiever of the year, the CEO of the largest conglomerate of C country, these titles held a greater weight in my life. In order to achieve all these fame and wealth, i had to pay a hefty price. Rather than calling it as my own hard work, I would like to consider it as a collaborative effort of the entire Tang Corporations. So I would like to dedicate this award with every single employee of Tang corporations and to you, the reason of my happiness...without you, i won't be able to stand here, thanks for loving me..thanks for believing me when no one else did,"

He warmly smiled and got down from the stage,

Though he didn't mention about the person, everyone who know Tang Wei Sheng was well aware of the person who was the reason of his happiness,

His sweetheart.
