Fast forward to weekend, Yeri"s long-awaited banquet is finally taking place.The security and staffs of Vertice hotel scurried around as they prepare for tonight"s celebration making sure that everything is in perfect order, they were strictly advice to cater the Zhi"s every request and needs especially the celebrant.
A few hours before the banquet~
At Yeri"s hotel room.
"oh my G.o.d princess, your so so pretty! i"m so proud to be your mother." Zenia Zhi exclaimed with an astonished expression.
Yeri did a quick twirl in front of the wall-size mirror while fitting her mermaid off-the-shoulder, sweep-train dress in rose gold satin, then she continued to pace around looking unsatisfied.
"something wrong princess? don"t you like your dress?"
"i love it mom, but i prefer if its deep cleavage and the slit is a bit higher..." Yeri nonchalantly complained.
Mrs.Zhi looked dumbfounded as she patted her chest. "princess stop joking around! your father already chastise me for that body-hugging dress, he"ll surely cancel the banquet if you insist more than that...you know how conservative he is."
"but its my birthday party!" Yeri pouted.
"princess just look at yourself, even if you dress like a beggar, no one will say that your ugly! im afraid you might even get kidnapped with this dress...maybe you should wear a maxi dress instead?"
"gosh no way! fine, im ok with this dress." Yeri"s mouth-twitched.
She wanted to flaunt her s.e.x appeal in celebration of her being a succubus since it happened on her 18th birthday but her father might really cancel the banquet if she go overboard.
....
Meanwhile, on Shin"s side, the stylist and his a.s.sistants were already coughing blood from Shin"s nonsensical demands.
To begin with, Shin decided not to wear the tuxedo he originally picked and also rejected the four other custom pieces the stylist prepared just in case he change his mind, he also complained about the set of shoes and scrutinize every minor details they do.
"CEO Keir, how about this tuxedo? the vest-"
"No, too dark."
"CEO Keir, this loafer shoes-"

"No, its ugly."
"uhm...how about this charcoal suit? the color coordination-"
"No, its doesn"t match my watch."
Stylist: "...."
a.s.sistants: "..."
On the other hand, Tristan is leisurely sitting on a couch while browsing through some men"s magazine looking all set and ready.
After an hour, Tristan finally took notice of the pathetic scene in front of him- Shin still wearing his robe and the corpse-like faces of his attendants, he sighed helplessly and abruptly glance at his watch, in less than an hour, Yeri"s banquet will start.
Lali, a renowned international stylist and the only gay person who became a business acquintance of Shin, pleadingly gaze at Tristan for a.s.sistance.
For the past 5 years, his always in charge of Shin"s gala attire but today, the CEO is surprisingly difficult and extremely demanding than usual.
"why dont you wear the tuxedo with rose gold vest? isn"t that your initial choice since it"s a perfect match for Sheri"s dress?" Tristan looked at Shin with a bored expression.
"won"t it bother her? people might find it way more coincidental, I dont want to stress Yeri on her birthday." Shin sounded hesitant.
"nothing to worry, you always bother her anyway, i think she"s already used to it." Tristan thought, yet a much better idea came into his mind and he looked at Shin with mischievous smile. "you"re worried about that? what if another random guy coincidentally wear a rose gold suit tonight? Sheri would surely be tease with him...hehe such a perfect plot to ask her for a dance."
Shin looked unaffected, retaining his indifferent expression but Tristan knew Shin more than anyone else, he clearly notice the murderous glint in his eyes!
Lali subconciously moved a bit farther from Shin, why must Tristan choose this stressing moment to purposely aggravate the demon CEO? can"t he wait till they leave first?!
"leave." Shin gestured to Lali and his a.s.sistants.
?!?!?!?!...did the demon CEO just said they can leave?!
Shin stared at Lali with darkened expression, taking the hint, Lali hurriedly left along with his a.s.sistants after sating some formalities.
When the stylist left, Shin grabbed the tuxedo and went to another room to change, completely ignoring Tristan.
"what a lovestruck fool!" Tristan chuckled, never in a million years did he expect that there would come a time he"ll see a docile Shin.
.....
On their way to Vertice hotel, Shin took out a small-shape box and throughly check if its according to what he asked.
That hideous woman, who"s name he can no longer remember ruined everything, he had to have the necklace cleaned and the chain change, there"s no way he will give his baby a gift touched by others!
"what did i do?" Tristan confusedly asked seeing Shin staring daggers at him.
Shin remained silent and ignored him again, however Tristan notice the small box and understood.
"my dearest grumpy cousin, who would have known that Calin will make an appearance there? i figured we will be at work by the time that necklace is ready so i had it sent to your office." Tristan reasoned.
Shin didn"t say anything and started fiddling on his phone.
"its really a miracle Yeri can keep up with your mood..." Tristan thought.
