Just as Tang Yan became confident that she didn"t have any evidence, he saw Song Xia curl her lips and say, "You want proof? I do have that!" Before he could even react, he heard his voice coming from her phone and was utterly shocked!At first, Song Xia"s suspicious tone was heard. "Even if you know him more than me, it"s a matter-of-fact that Ellen hasn"t ever worn these types of bright colored clothes! Why would you choose such a bright red suit?!"
Then Tang Yan"s hasty voice came from the phone. "Whatever! I know him the best; l"m telling you, red is... yes, red is his favorite color! He absolutely loves red color!"
It was clear from the voice recording that Tang Yan was the one who had insisted on buying the suit and had even lied while Song Xia was the one who was tricked by him into thinking that Ellen liked red and hence bought it. The entire living room was filled with awkward silence for a moment.
Ellen"s eyes darkened as he slowly turned to Tang Yan and he said with frosty voice, "So you lied and tricked the both of us.. Tang Yan, do you have a death wish?" Tang Yan who was blankly wondering about how Song Xia managed to record his voice, trembled when he heard Ellen"s words.
He knew it was over! Not that he feared telling a lie or tricking Ellen; it was just that he had "accidentally" triggered his taboo. A scar that was hidden in the deepest corner of his heart. It wasn"t a fear but repulsion towards the color red; as if it scarred him really badly.
Tang Yan swallowed his saliva and mustered up his courage to defend himself, "So what if I said that you liked red?! It"s not like I did a big sin! Moreover, I was just joking! If she really knew you well, she wouldn"t have bought it!"
Song Xia bursted out instantly when she heard him accusing her again. "What?! I knew that Ellen loathes red, okay! However, I couldn"t just stand and watch you haughtily announcing your sovereignty upon Ellen! Even if you knew him more than I do, I at least won"t go so far as to do something my best friend hates!"
Tang Yan gritted his teeth, "You.." Ellen pinched the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows and shouted at the duo that won"t stop bickering. "Enough!" The duo was startled as they were suddenly intimidated by the man who resembled an Asura from the h.e.l.l right now. In an instance, they stopped fighting and kept quiet.
Ellen"s mood was really bad right now; if they go against his wishes, they were afraid that they won"t be able to be responsible for the circ.u.mstances resulting afterward...
Ellen tugged his tie and his frosty expression softened a little when he thought about how the both of them had obediently kept silent. He sighed before saying, "Let this matter slip off. It"s already late; we should get ready for dinner." Then he looked at the duo that looked slightly exhausted and tired and continued, "I"ll cook today so go and get some rest."
Right after he finished his sentence, the duo who was just slouching a moment ago, immediately run off upstairs to their own respective rooms. Ellen looked at the empty living room and sighed. Then he looked at the red suit in the bag and a sense of repulsion flashed in his eyes. He sighed again and tossed the bag on the sofa, walking into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

- w.a.n.g Household, China
The whole house was completely different from how it was in the afternoon. It was grandiosely lit and the entire place was filled with lights and sparkles. In just half an hour, it was simply bustling with respected and distinguished families.
Even though the w.a.n.g Family had disappeared from public"s eyes for over a decade, their power hadn"t weakened a bit. To be able to invite so many people and on top of that, every single guest were from eminent and powerful background.
Many of them were currently trying to curry favor with Elder w.a.n.g, w.a.n.g Bo Lin. Who didn"t want to take advantage of this party and win the favor of this dignified and n.o.ble Elder? Now that the w.a.n.g family has officially returned, they would naturally be one of the top families in not only Beijing but also in the whole China.
"Good evening, Elder w.a.n.g! I, Liu Pei Cao from the Liu Family, pays my warm greetings to renowned Elder!"
"Elder w.a.n.g, is the w.a.n.g family officially announcing their return through this party?"
"By the way, where is your granddaughter, Elder w.a.n.g? Isn"t this party for welcoming the Young Miss w.a.n.g?"

It was rare to see w.a.n.g Bo Lin, who was known for his cold temperament, smiling and in such a good mood so they naturally mustered up their courage. w.a.n.g Bo Lin patiently attended every guest"s questions and boasted non-stop about his granddaughter which made them aware how much he loved and pampered her.
Just as the atmosphere was getting livelier and cheerful, a maid suddenly came out and rushed towards w.a.n.g Yu Jie and Lin Jia (w.a.n.g Yuju"s parents). The maid whispered something in Lin Jia"s ears that made her appear shocked. "What?" w.a.n.g Yu Jie also heard it and he also revealed a surprised face.
w.a.n.g Bo Lin had a very bad premonition as he walked over and asked gravely, "What happened?" The maid subconsciously blurted out, "Y-Young Miss is missing..."
