The days pa.s.sed quickly and there got the date of the annual anniversary party of the renowned corporation of Li"s.
For many years, Li Corporation has maintained a low profile. It was announced years before that the only son of Elder Li Hong Chi met with a deadly accident along with his wife and six year old daughter. And there bloodline has gone the way of all flesh.
Since the high cla.s.s society has are well known for both their wealth and ruthless inhumanity, they have always perceived that soon the majestic Li Corporation will perish in the absence of a rightful heir.
They have seen the Elder Li Hong Chi being working as an workaholic for his Corporation. The profit graphs never gone towards the losses. Working like that being an old man in his mid sixties and that too for someone who is not his flesh or blood to pa.s.s on the well built legacy. The people considered him as a senile.
They have always been planning who the next will be going to take over the Executive post of such a big empire after him. Many of them had played tricks of wickedness to get a strong hold of power there but still there wasn"t any ways to weaken the old man.
But now suddenly that senile old man has created a huge turbulence in the society announcing that soon he is going to pa.s.s on his legacy to someone at that very party.
The people were eager to know who will be getting such a tremendous set of power that could easily control and influence the economy of the country. They have already waited for the whole week to get on this day so that they could get to know it.
As it was the weekend and the works were efficiently well wrapped up, Deming was preparing to leave for London. The car was driving smoothly to the airport from where he would take his private flight.
At this moment a call on his phone brought him back from his trance . He took a look at the screen and his eyes lost it"s colour and eyebrows got furrowed. Moving his fingers swiftly, he ignored the call.
Within another ten seconds, the phone rang again making him frown more. He ignored it again and again but the caller didn"t accepted the defeat and called again.
When the call got connected, a desperate voice of a woman rang in his ears, "Brother Ming, I didn"t expected that you would ignore me like this. Is this all worth for that woman? You being so heartless towards me"
"...", Deming didn"t bother to reply her. He maintained his silence while hold the phone to his ears.
Sensing that he won"t be replying to her, Jie again started, "I know you are mad at me but you can"t isolate me like that. I got into such a serious scandal which tarnished my whole reputation but you still didn"t bother to step up and help me. Have you really given up on the promise that you made to me?"
"...", Deming still not replied but this time a heavy sigh could be heard on the phone.
"Fine since you are still want to ignore me I will get to my point. I needed a favour from you. I have tried my best but still couldn"t get hold of the invitation to attend the anniversary party of the Li"s. You already know it"s important for me to get there and widen my contacts in fas.h.i.+on world. So help me get one", she asked arrogantly.
Thought Deming could sense the arrogance in her words, he didn"t thought of pointing it out now. He just stated coldly, "And how do you think I can arrange that?"
Jie gritted her teeth in anger. Was he just saying that he can"t get it for her? Who is he fooling? He was no other but the great w.a.n.g Deming whose power rang everywhere.
"Brother Ming, I know you would have got one. Please let me accompany you there", she said being a little impatient.
The point she finished her words, his cold chuckle came on the line, "You are right! I got one. But that can"t work for you. Because I am not going there. And even if I was, I wouldn"t have let you tag along with me, not after knowing that you have such great scheming tricks".
"...", she was going to burst out of rage but at this moment only he can help her so she said softly, "Fine. If you are not going you can hand your invitation to me. I will attend it on your behalf". Attending the party on his behalf will automatically clear the rumours about them and this will definitely benefit her, so she wasn"t losing.
"You really have tricks. But I haven"t thought that you will a.s.sume me with no IQ", he said as paused.
"What do you mean? I haven"t played any tricks...", before she could complete her words Deming cut her off, "I don"t have all day to explain you. I will ask someone Qi Yuirong to get you a date with an invitation so that you can attend the party. But remember, don"t always use that promise to s.h.i.+eld and benefit yourself or else it will soon lose all its value".
He said and without waiting for her to reply, he hung up the call.
