Chapter 96 - Do Me A Favor

"Yiyi, you're so lucky... You get to attend the party of the Yuns. They said that the Zhao and Knightley family will be there."

"Not only that, but I heard the Young Princess will also show up."

Long Yiyi smiled from ear to ear pleased at hearing everyone complimenting her. "I know, I even beg my father to order me one of L'essència's latest gowns for tonight. He had to send one of his men to Dubai to order and pick the gown for me."

Everyone in the set continued to adore Long Yiyi for being born with such privilege in life.

Liying was annoyed seeing how everyone flocked around Long Yiyi as if she was so amazing, "Sis Li Zi, is it wrong for me to wish for something bad to happen to Long Yiyi tonight. It just annoys me the fact she gets to meet the Young Princess family just because she's dating President Yun's youngest son. A girl like her should not be in the presence of such almighty people."

"To think she even ordered a gown from L'essència... Do you know the gowns there cost millions since they use real diamonds and gems on the gown?"

Elizabeth didn't know whether she should comfort Liying or laugh at her. Inside she was about to burst out laughing hearing such ridiculous comments and thoughts.

'Liying you need not worry, neither the Zhao nor the Knightley family likes her at all. Plus, the party is for me, anyway... So you don't need to bother and worry that she'll be able to steal the spotlight from me. Plus, it's people like her, are the reason why my family and I hate attending such events.'

Elizabeth sighed thinking about how horrible the party will be tonight. She could just imagine how badly the different heiresses will dress up in the latest designer gowns and wearing the best accessories whilst she doesn't even know what she'll be wearing.

'Damn it, what was I thinking letting my mother handle everything. I should have called Frances for help me instead of her.'

This will be the first party she'll be attending that most of the guests are from the business and entertainment circle.

'Tonight is going to be one heck of a night... Why did I even agree to go, anyway?'

Wang Ji just arrived to pick up the two girls and noticed the gloomy expression on their faces. "Li Zi, Liying, are you ready to go?"

"Yes..."

"Let's go Bro Wang...

Wang Ji ponders what happened between them that they looked like zombies as they dragged themselves out of the set. They were so lifeless as if they just received such horrible news.

Long Yiyi notice the woman heading out with her team, she was so pleased to see the dark clouds on top of the girl.

'Ha, see... How inferior you are... I am an alpha you're just a lowly pest trying to act arrogant and climb the ladder of society.'

...

Yuns' Main Residence

Every member of the Yuns was busy dressing up when a package arrived all of a sudden.

"Can I help you?" Madam Yun asked as she answered the person by the door.

The man was wearing the Zhao's crest badge on his uniform which surprised everyone present to why he was here yet his master aren't around.

"Lady Zhao asked me to hand this to Young Master Shen."

Madam Yun took the box away from the man as he bid her farewell and left without further explanation of what's inside the box.

…

Yun Shen was getting ready when he suddenly heard someone knocking on his door, he went and opened the door and saw his mother carrying a box with her.

"What's that?"

"Shen, Lady Zhao sent you a package... I didn't open it."

Yun Shen took the box from his mother and notice the note with it. It confused him to what the note meant.

Seeing his son confuse expression made Madam Yun curious asked.

"What did it say, Shen."

Yun Shen handed the card to his mother to read.

"Do me a favor."

Madam Yun too was puzzled to what Lady Zhao need from his son.

Yun Shen took the box lid and opened the box, it perplexed him how the item inside the box could possibly help Lady Zhao.

...

As the sun soon set, guests started arriving as each member of the Yuns welcome them.

"Father, I heard one of Lady Zhao's men came earlier and gave Shen a gift." Yun Lin whisphered.

Yun Lingxin was enraged hearing what his son just mention, he worried that the bond between Shen and the Zhao is beyond his expectation.

"What was inside the package?"

The boy shook his head disappointedly to not know what was inside the package, "Auntie brought it to his room right away."

"It doesn't matter, what's important right now is for you to try to win the Young Princess's favor. Just don't offend here... I heard she particularly like playing the piano and violin, try to play something later."

"No problem..." Yun Lin gave his father a smirk for what he request was a piece of cake.

...

Outside, a few guests have arrived as they tried to settle down and enjoy the beautiful atmosphere of the party.

"I can't wait to see Young Master Shen, all of this is thanks to him."

"I can't believe that the Zhao family actually are attending such gatherings. I heard they don't really attend gathering like this..."

"How come I've never heard of Young Master Shen before. I've always thought Young Master Bai was the only son. Didn't expect it's Young Master Shen who is the true heir."

As everyone continued to gossip amongst themselves. They didn't notice the old man and man stepping out of the patio.

"It's CEO Yun, I didn't know he's back... When did he return?"

"How come we didn't know about this..."

Whilst the employees, board members, and other investor complained amongst themselves for not knowing the return of the Chairman.

They were soon overpowered by the young heiress screaming as they gazed eagerly at the young man next to the old man.

Elder Chairman Yun was wearing an all-black suit. Despite his age, he looked handsome and attractive just like the good old days.

Yun Shen icy attitude made him look even more attractive with the suit he was wearing. He wore a royal blue tuxedo. The peak label was colored black, a black bow tie, they were two side pockets and one chest pocket with a nicely folded handkerchief. His pants were the same color as his suit.

"It seems everyone's eyes are all on you tonight Shen?" Elder Chairman Yun said.

"....." (Yun Shen)

The old man felt like laughing, his grandson cold personality has not changed over the years. He wonders when was the last time he saw his grandson's smiled.

"Shen, be careful tonight."

"I know..."

The old man sighed as he saw the other members of his family, who were also fighting over the company right.

Below the staircase, President Yun and his wife were busy greeting the guest and did not notice the two men that just arrived.

"President Yun, Congratulation… I hope to collaborate with you someday as well."

"CEO Chang, thank you."

"President Yun, Congratulation. But how come I don't see the guest of honor yet?"

"CEO Guan, they are on their way right now."

As the guest left the couple to join the rest of the crowd, the man looked at his wife and whispered.

"Where is Shen, also what did Lady Zhao want with him?"

"His dressing up right now, Lady Zhao asked him for his help but we don't know what she needs help with." She replied softly.

"Make sure to remind him about Lady Zhao's request."

...

All of a sudden, the two of them were startled when they saw the old man and boy standing in front of them.

"Father."

"Shen."

"Xinya, you look so beautiful." Elder Chairman Yun embraces the woman. In all his daughter-in-law it was only Zho Xinya that he likes since she isn't arrogant and proud like the other two since they came from a noble family.

"Father, Shen, you're finally here..." Yun Zexian said as he walked closer to them with his wife and daughter.

The wife and daughter greeted the old man.

"Father, how you been?" Wan Jin said.

"Grandfather, I've missed you..." Yun Lei added.

The old man was pleased seeing his granddaughter for he has not seen her for more than 5 years since she was studying overseas when he vanished. "Lei, you so beautiful just like your mother. It's a good thing you have your mother charm and not your father."

Yun Lei giggled hearing his old man's remarks, "Grandfather, father is handsome too... If mother didn't marry father, I won't be tall and smart."

"You silly girl..." Wan Jin chuckled acting as if she finds what her daughter was saying funny. "Anyways, father, my parents are here and wish to greet you."

"Ah- come, child, bring me to your parents."

The four of them left leaving the trio to continue to greet the guest that just arrived.

"Shen, hows is she?" Madam Yun whispered seeing no one was looking at them.

"She resting now, don't worry... I'll explain everything to grandfather after the party." He replied.

Madam Yun was not calm at all, she felt an eerie feeling that something bad is about to happen.
