Chapter 1 - SARA WANG (1/2)
The hotel looked like a palace. On the walls were various artworks and paintings of prominent artists. The antiques looked like they had been bought for millions of dollars. The interior alone could make one feel like they were in heaven already.
Someone on a white sneakers strode down the hallway freely and stood in front of a grand door before stretching out a pass.
One of the two doormen stationed there, took the pass and gave the person a look over.
If not because of the pass, they would have chased the person away but they had to let the person through even though they were curious why someone would dress this way to this kind of grand occasion. How did the person even get here in the first place?
The door opened to reveal a grand party going on. One look, and one could tell that the people there were the Socialites and tycoons of country B. Sounds of laughter and soft words could be heard everywhere.
Seeing these kind of people together in a place was rather difficult and when the opportunity came, people tend to use it to the fullest: Suck up to those higher than them in the social ranking, make connections and even look for a suitable partner for their kids or for themselves. Not to mention the businessmen, they needed this the most.
Walking farther into the hall, they were curious glances but the person did not stop walking and only stopped in front of a young woman clinging unto a man, they were both having a happy conversation with another couple.
When the both of them saw the person, they were obviously shocked to the bones.
”Wh..at are...you doing here” Liu weiyoung stammered as she let go of Mo Jinyong's hand unconsciously.
”How...how did... you get here?” Jinyong asked trying to maintain his composure. He was obviously uncomfortable. Sara looked at the both of them fiercely. They shuddered when they saw the look in her eyes. It was as if she was sucking out their souls.
Sara Wang was putting on a black high-neck sweatshirt, a blue Jean and white sneakers. Her long black hair was tied in a ponytail which made her facial features visible: Her black round eyes, pointed little nose and small rosy lips. she was not wearing any make up or jewelry but she looked prettier than most of the ladies present there with heavy makeups.
To the normal world, her present appearance was normal. But being amongst these kind of people, she looked out of place and odd, not that she cared though. She was actually here for something else. ”Who's explaining first?” She looked at the both of them. Although she asked calmly, they both felt rather uncomfortable.
”Let's talk outside” Jinyong tried to pull her out but she quickly pushed his hand away. ” Doesn't it feel like a soap opera where you cheat on your girlfriend with her friend?” She was still calm when she asked.
”When I saw the invite, I thought it was a joke. A really expensive joke. I really had no idea you were both close but who would have thought....?” she let her words trail off as she glared at them.
Weiyoung was so nervous. She didn't know what to do or say. She only had to put her hope on Jinyong to help resolve this. But Jinyong on the other hand was praying for the ground to open up and swallow him. His gaze unconsciously fell on Li Muchen. The last thing he needed was for Li Muchen to have a bad impression of him. Because if he withdrew his assistance at this point, his parents, especially his mother, would kill him for sure. He didn't even want to talk about his grandparents.
They had spent millions just to have this engagement ceremony at the CEO Li's Hotel. It even took him a great deal to be able to invite Li Muchen to his own hotel to grace their engagement ceremony. After putting in enough effort, the last thing he needed was any form of trouble or obstacle.
