Lifen and Elder Li were engrossed in their talks, when someone knocked the door. Elder Li looked at Huang Fei, signaling him to look who was at the door.
Huang Fei nodded to him and turned to slide open the door. He knew that who it could be. An as expected it was the waitress who have arrived to take the order. He was always used to this, whenever this duo meets they forgets about everything, even the time which was running around them.
Lifen ordered a light breakfast for herself, saying that she has already had something before leaving home, then she ordered something for her grandfather.
She tilted her head to look at Huang Fei. He gently shook his head, "Thank You, Young Miss but I already had my breakfast ".
Lifen squinted her eyes at him, "What"s great in that? I also had my breakfast before but still I am accompanying grandpa, won"t you accompany us, Uncle Fei".
He knew whatever he say now, his your miss will counter attack is with better words, so without giving out any words he complied. Lifen was always like this since child. She won"t bother about cla.s.s or status of person. She will be kind and polite to everyone. I was her nature.
They had their breakfast smoothly when Elder Li spoke out to Lifen, "So you will be accompanying us to the Li Corporation today. There are several projects on which I need your words and the employees too wanted to meet you. You know they are very much fond of you and even trust your decision more than mine".
A small smile appeared on her lips. She nodded her head. She too loves to spend her time at Li Corporation. There, the work doesn"t seems to be a burden. The employees are very cooperative and hardworking.

On the other side, Deming was continuously trying to call Lifen but his calls were not answered.
He decided to personally visit her place. He didn"t know but her ignorance was somehow hurting her. He consoled himself saying that it"s all because he wants his revenge for Jie.

At Li Corporation,
Everyone was in their high spirits. They were informed previously about Lifen"s arrival. Last day when she visited, she didn"t came across anyone and directly walked to the meeting room where the clients where waiting and then after completing the deal, she walked off without coming in notice of anyone.
The employees of Li Corporation loved her. She has all the desired qualities of being a leader and at the same time she was very empathetic to everyone.
"Hey, what"s happening today? Is there anything special? Everyone seems to be very energetic ", a young girl asked. She had joined the company recently so she didn"t know much.
"Don"t you know, oh I forgot. You are new here so you might not know our Young Miss. She is coming today", someone explained.
"Oh, so all are trying to make a good impression in front of her?", she was still confused.
"No no, we don"t need to impress her. She is not like the other rich ladies of the society. She is very down to earth. We just wanted to welcome her heartily. She rarely visits the company, but most of the important deals of company are cracked by her"
"Yes she is a beauty with brain. And at the same time, she doesn"t have any line of arrogance in her. She is always polite to everyone".
At that someone informed, "Young Miss has arrived".
Everyone"s face beamed with happiness. Lifen walked along with Elder Li, followed by Huang Fei. Seeing them arrive, everyone bowed in unison to greet them.
Lifen"s eyes glistened with happiness. She can tell that everyone was happy to see her. Someone went forward and presented her a bouquet of flowers. She took the bouquet heartily.
Elder Li was impressed and felt proud when he saw the eyes of his employees filled with respect for his granddaughter. He looked at Lifen, "I am going to my cabin. Have your words with them and then come there". He then walked straight to his cabin.
When she saw her grandfather went inside his cabin, she smiled cheekily and turned around to face the employees again, "I missed everyone. Thanks for welcoming me this heartily. And congratulations to everyone, we have cracked the deal with that Italy brand of apparel".
Li Corporation mainly deals in clothing, jewelleries and investments. They owns almost 85% market shares of clothing and jewelleries. The investment firm under them has made investments in several large projects and is very flouris.h.i.+ng.
Hearing the good news from Lifen, everyone applauded. Lifen then walked to a middle aged lady who was in her early 40s, "Mrs.Lin, how is your daughter?".
Mrs.Lin eyes became teary and contented, "Thank you, Miss Li. Without your help, it would be really hard for me to save her. Thanks for helping me in getting my loan approved ".
Lifen gently hugged her and patted her back to calm her down. Then she turned to everyone and politely talked with them. She greeted the new employees and encouraged them.
After that, she excused herself and walked straight into her grandfather"s cabin. The new employees after getting to know her they can say, that what they heard from their seniors was so true. The young heiress of Li Corporation was sure a beauty with kind heart. Everyone got back to their work when one of the new employee asked, "Why haven"t anyone heard about Miss Li before?"
Then only Huang Fei walked to them holding an expressionless face, "I know the new employees have many questions. To them, I will only say that she has her reasons. And I will request them to not spread any word or her ident.i.ty to the outside world". Saying that he walked out to settle his errands.
In the cabin, Lifen was going through several files of the upcoming project and was jotting down several points which she thought can become disadvantageous for the company.
Seeing her working with such concentration, Elder Li was impressed, he has always liked her dedication for work. When she is involved in work, everything and everyone around her becomes blur. She doesn"t think of the things going around her.
"LiLi, you know after 3 months, you will have to return back", Elder Li said.
Lifen put her pen down, "Sorry grandpa, I didn"t heard you. And here I have jotted down and underlined the necessary changes".
"I said prepare yourself to part with the Wu family, you have 3 more months with them. You have to return after that", he repeated again.
Lifen nodded hesitantly but she knew this time she can"t ask her grandfather to extend the time. She knows her grandfather loves her and wants to spend his time with her.
"And also quickly wrap up your work in w.a.n.g Corporation too. Maybe after you return, you have to go abroad. This time its necessary, so please no excuses ".
Lifen nodded, "Okay grandpa, I won"t make any excuses. But now I should take your leave. I have to return home". With that she stood up and hugged him to bid adieu.
When she walked out the parking, Huang Fei was waiting for her, "Young Miss".
"Uncle Fei, I know what you want to talk. I know he is planning something against me. But I can"t do anything now. You know I need his help for finding Brother Yifeng. We have tried our best but yet we haven"t found him. I think, he can help us as he has his connections with the underworld army which we don"t. And it"s just a piece of land I can sacrifice it for Brother Yifeng. So don"t worry and please don"t mention it in front of grandfather".
Huang Fei nodded, he believed she can handle everything but still he has to protect her being in shadow. He has seen her from her childhood days and is very much protective for her.
He drove her personally and left her a few distance before, so that no one can get to know her secret.
She took her bike from the car"s trunk walked to her home. But in her midway she saw a familiar silhouette leaning against a black Maybach, waiting for someone.
