Each of these people was an influential figure in the capital. However, it was no shock that they were customers of EFW. Elite Fashion World was after all the biggest and most famous brand in the nation.
If Lu Aotian were to invite them, they wouldn't hesitate to attend the fashion show. However, if she were the one inviting them, she wouldn't be too sure. After all not everyone knew that she was the lady boss of Lu Enterprises. Even some of those who knew still felt she was just a useless little thing whose role can perhaps only be that of causing destruction.
Her beauty was too troublesome.
"You're not confident in yourself?" Lu Aotian asked.
"I am! The VIPs have always been invited by the host who is in this case, top designer. Of course I will fulfill my duties well."
Lu Aotian flashed a smile. "I am the most important guest on that list. Are you going to pass your invitation?" He had on a serious expression as though really waiting for her invitation.
Wan Jia glanced at him. Did he still need an invitation? Even if he didn't want to go as the President of Lu Enterprises, he still had to go and show support to his wife. If he rejected that too, she would drag him by the ear.
Still, she looked at him seriously. "How do you want me to invite you? As your subordinate?" her gaze changed. She went round the table and grabbed his tie. In a flash, she pushed him back to his headrest and gazed right into his eyes. "Or as your wife?"
Lu Aotian was caught off guard. The little devil was at work again!
He held both of her hips and made her sit on his lap. "I prefer being invited as the husband."
Of course anyone would prefer that.
She held his neck and kissed him deeply. In the heat of the moment, she pulled off his tie and one button. Then she left a love bite on his collarbone. Before he could think of advancing things further, she leapt off his lap and straightened her skirt. "President Lu, I still have many guests to invite. See you later!"
She fled before he responded.
Lu Aotian looked down at his body that had already reacted to her close presence and cursed. That little troublemaker!
…
Wan Jia left the Lu Enterprises building and started by talking to those VIPs that were easier to invite. One of them was Henry Blanc. He would definitely give her face because she was Lu Aotian's wife.
However, this time he was not so easy to deal with. He looked at the beautiful invitation in his hands. "I will come if you help me get Lin Lihua's contact number."
"Eer…"
"Is it very hard to get it? You're her younger sister so you definitely have it, right?"
"I do…but my sister wouldn't like it."
Henry Blanc of course understood this. "How about other ways of contacting her like Wechat?"
"She wouldn't like that either. Perhaps I can convince her to contact you?"
Henry Blanc was reminded of how his business card had been rejected. He knew Lin Lihua wasn't very easy to deal with and didn't want to make things difficult for his little sister-in-law. Apart from not wanting to offend his future family, he would be asking for his skin to be peeled off if he bullied Lu Aotian's precious wife.
"That's good too. If you can't do it, don't worry. I will still come."
Wan Jia thanked him. "Thanks Mr. Blanc."
Henry Blanc sighed. Mr. Blanc again! It won't be too long before you have to call me 'brother-in-law'.
Wan Jia had Su Ling and Xia Rong book appointments with the other VIPs and went back to her office.
She worked overtime that day so that the next day, she had some time to invite Lin Lihua for dinner.
....
It had been long since the sisters had a meal together so Lin Lihua rushed over without hesitation.
"Mom prepared these supplements for you. They were recommended by that talented doctor who is her friend, Doctor Qiao."
Wan Jia received them gratefully. Everyone was doing their best to help her get pregnant sooner. Little Jia was so adorable that everyone loved her and wanted her to get well as soon as possible. Even Su Ling was taking great care of her. Although she didn't have the capability to bring her tonics and supplements, she would remind her to eat healthy food and on time. She had become more like a caring friend than just a future sister-in-law. Her heart was filled with warmth. "I will call mom and thank her later."
"Little Wan, why do you look like you have something on your mind?"
Wan Jia sighed dramatically. "I do have something on my mind."
"What is it?"
"Am I never going to be an aunt in this lifetime?"
Lin Lihua held her forehead in her hand. She had just escaped nagging from her parents. Did her little sister have to bring up this topic too?
Wan Jia looked at her elder sister as though she was a big bully. "Sis, not only did I already make you an aunt four years ago, I am also preparing for my second baby. Do you think you are being fair?"
"…"
Why do you have to look like you have suffered a huge form of injustice?
