Chapter 214 - Annual Anniversary Party (9) Some past grudges.

Inside the banquet hall, everyone have already busied themselves.

It's a bitter truth of the society that they have always been busied themselves in building the bridge to reach profit or higher position rather than stabling a strong bond of human relationships.

They are like the mouse who always remain the first one to escape from the ship when they sense it drowning in the sea.

They will too leave you at the moment they find that there isn't any way you could help them. This is the unbearable truth of the society. The one who hold the crown on his or her her head is doomed to be live alone.

The moment President Li got inside the hall, several families came forward to greet him with respect.

The elder knew the secrets they were hiding in their heart. The people might think him as a senile old man but the experienced eyes of the old man can easily see through their evil ideas blooming in their heart.

Soon Yang Yuzhe came forward to greet him officially and soon attracted the eyes of every guests. The public has always known about the deep friendship between the elders of both families, Li's and Yang's.

But they didn't expected the young Dr.Yang to be so respectful towards him too. He was known for being cold from background and even there are many rumours where he didn't bother to give face to the people who have been elder to him.

Yuzhe talked for a few minutes with the Elder and then excused himself to a corner of the hall.

Seeing him leave other the Executive Director of Shengyan's Vogue came to greet him. They have been partnership for above eight years now and have always put their whole trust with the Li's.

Now when they have heard that the Li Corporation will be introducing the future heir of the corporation, they too were anticipating things.

"Good Evening President Li! It's been long. But something that didn't went weak is our trust in your brand", Director Shen said as he raised a toast to the elder.

Elder Li's lips curled up as he nodded and then gently too sip of wine from his glass.

They were busy with their light business talks, when someone approached from behind and politely interrupted them.

"President Li!", his cello voice came to the elder's ears.

The elder turned to look at the gentleman who has come to greet him. As he looked at him, he smiled but his eyes held several hidden highlights as if there was some grudge between them, "Ah the young President Wang has also gave us honor with his presence".

Deming has already left Jie as soon as he entered the banquet hall and has asked her to not stick along. Jie wanted to ignore his warning but she didn't wanted to make the matter more worse.

She had already become a pile of gossip now and still can't find a way to escape. So she thought to maintain a low profile for the night and focus on making plans to pave a way for her studio towards success.

Her main goal for today was to find a way through which she can get some help from the Li brand. She can't let her studio to rot. That was the only thing that is stable in her account.

And there is still some chance that she can use on Dr.Yang Yuzhe.

Deming looked at Elder Li and gave a nonchalant smile, "Its seems like President Li are natured to hold past grudges. But I believe that we should let go the past and live in the present".

Elder Li gave a knowing smile to Deming which clearly wasn't as clear as it seemed. The guests thought that the old man really have his ways through which he still can be on good terms with the two young tyrannical kings.

After some time Huang Fei came and whispered something in Elder Li's ears. Hearing the words, the brows got furrowed but it was just for a moment and no one was able to notice it.

Elder Li quickly left the crowd and went upstairs with Huang Fei. There seemed to be some serious problem arisen.

Deming looked around, some eyes were still staring at him. When entered he had already known the Lifen hasn't come yet, so he walked picking a glass of wine to a table where Yuzhe was sitting and took a seat opposite to him.

"You found a good place ", Deming said with a hint of sarcasm.

"And President Wang wants to leech off on my ability", Yuzhe said with equal sarcasm.

The air around them wasn't tense anymore, but it was calm as sea.

They didn't hold any sense of formality between them. I was like they find fun by insulting each other.

"So why did you hide it again?", Deming asked as he twirl the wine of his glass.

"Huh? How is President Wang's incapability related to me?", he said as his finished his glass with ease.

"...", Deming didn't bothered with his words. It was true. He had busied himself with work so much that he didn't took a notice of location Lifen was presently in.

"Don't blame me. She will be here soon and today you will get to know more...", before Yuzhe could complete his words something caught their attention at the entrance.

Surprise gasps filled the atmosphere as someone entered. They wee unable to look at the person entered because there was a huge crowd blocking their line of sight.
