After saying that, he even cast a weird glance towards her, Luo Lixi subconsciously touched her face and felt the little beads of sweat brimming up on her skin. 

She murmured with an awkward smile, "Ah? It's so obvious?" 

"Indeed…" Sheng Ruming saw her taking out a handkerchief to wipe her face. Even the air-conditioning of the hall wasn't enough to calm her restless heart down. 

Currently, Luo Lixi had only one thought, to get the chance to go on that stage. 

Even for once, she wanted the chance to stand firmly before the masses and prove that her grandfather didn't make the wrong decision when he handed the company to her.



Elder Kong saw Sheng Ruming's plan for this project and felt very satisfied. All along, he liked this type of man who matched his personal preferences. "As expected, Sheng Haotin's son is destined to be a rare gem…" 

As he thought, his eyes fell on Luo Lixi who showed a bright smile when Sheng Ruming turned towards her. Both of them looked like a pair of love birds who couldn't be separated easily. 

Elder Kong then turned aside and glanced at Luo Lixiang, feeling greatly irritated. He tapped on Kong Pipi's arm to get her attention.

"Yes, uncle?"

Elder Kong whispered beside Kong Pipi's ear with a deadly serious face, "Why don't you try to get close to Sheng Ruming? He's a hundred times better than Luo Lixiang."

Kong Pipi stiffened because the whisper was enough for several people to hear. But they didn't show any reaction even though they knew Sheng Ruming was engaged. It was not time to say anything. 

Rather, they would love to gossip about it after the end of the event. 

On the other hand, Luo Lixiang acted as if he was deaf and sneered in his head, 'All rich old men are fuckers and true bastards!'

When people became very modern, they were destined to get twisted thoughts. Their strange way of thinking couldn't even stand beside the word 'simple' anymore. 

Kong Pipi's eyes shook as she murmured, "Uncle! I don't want to be a mistress!" 

Elder Kong frowned and mumbled, "Who is asking you to be a mistress?! Can't you even snatch a man from your friend? You should be familiar with that Lixi girl. Use your experience of those years when you have wasted your time on her..."

Then, Elder Kong sighed and shook his head in disappointment, "Girl, the gem is yet to get an owner. It's the perfect time to take possession of it. Don't just see a strand of silver as platinum!" 

The last line was indicating Luo Lixiang.

"..." Kong Pipi felt something was wrong with his honourable, upstanding and high-minded uncle. She couldn't believe one day she would hear those from him!

Kong Pipi slowly turned towards Luo Lixiang but the latter wasn't even looking at her. His curious and attention-seeking eyes were glued to the woman's back who was seated in front of him, Madam Wang. 

"You know her?" Kong Pipi questioned with interest but nonetheless, she didn't get any reply from the other person. 

Luo Lixiang didn't even bother to keep his gentle face. Madam Wang suddenly turned around after the disturbing yet murmured commotion behind her, her smile deepened when she saw the absent-minded young man eyeing her. 

When Luo Lixiang saw her, he felt uncomfortable all over, all embarrassed and flustered with the sudden eye contact he felt his body getting hotter and uncomfortable. Thus, he abruptly stood up and left the hall silently.

Elder Kong couldn't unsee this. He frowned with a question, "Where is he going at such an important moment?"

Kong Pipi knew her uncle's temper and she better knew not to fire him up. If she dared to reply that she didn't know, it would only fuel the old man's dissatisfaction. Thus, she lied, "He went to the washroom."

Elder Kong snorted with a disbelief gaze towards the hallway. He mumbled in a displeased voice, "Does he have diabetes or what? Can't even control his urine?!" 

Kong Pipi smiled awkwardly and looked away 'How would I know?!' She thought to herself and took a deep breath.

Trying to appease everyone was really a hard task.



Luo Lixiang went out and walked through the long corridor beside the hall room. There he saw armed policemen keeping a lookout around the place. 

When they heard a noise, a lot of men turned around and shot him a piercing look. After one second, they retreated to their usual stance. 

Luo Lixiang forced out a smile trying to cover up his awkwardness, he glanced around and didn't see an empty place that he was desperately in need of after everything he came across. 

Even so, without bothering anyone, he took out a cigarette and a lighter. 

When the smell of it spread around, one guard turned around and rushed towards him. Even though Luo Lixiang had a not-so-bothered face and blatantly ignored him, the man explained with a straight face, "Smoking isn't allowed here, sir."

But Luo Lixiang didn't bother and continued, ignoring his advice. This time, a man with a bad temper approached Luo Lixiang with a glare.

He stood just in front of Luo Lixiang and directly snatched Luo Lixiang's cigarette, throwing it away on the ground. Then, with his shoe, he crushed it into pieces. 

Luo Lixiang's hand was still raised as he saw the two men leaving. He tilted his head to one side and gave a stiff smile. 

"Huh! Losers! Can only show off their useless weapons!" 

The men heard him but didn't react. How could they? Neither they were in a position to speak up for themself nor could they afford to mess with all these rich asses.

They could just do their work silently like an obedient dog. They had no other option. 

In their life, they had heard much more insulting words, this would probably be nothing. Luo Lixiang didn't even bother with their words and took out another piece. 

Currently, his mind was thinking about how to provoke those men. How he loved challenges everywhere!

The fact that he had come here with the Kong family had escaped his mind and if the situation turned nasty because of his stubborn and childish behaviour, Elder Kong wouldn't spare him easily either. 

Without any thought of the world, Luo Lixiang took out his lighter to burn the stick but then a firm hand came from behind and grabbed his left arm, blocking him from lighting the stick to piss off those police guards. 

"Lixiang, don't make trouble!" It was none other than Luo Tiankong. The man didn't enter the hall because he wasn't interested. 

Thus, he walked around, roaming in silence was probably better than being inside in all pressure and noises. He didn't think that he would be lucky to get to see this brat here. 

Luo Lixiang shrugged off his arm to free his hand. Then, he stepped back and asked impatiently, "What's the matter?" 

Luo Lixiang raised a brow at the intruder, "Say what you want... and stay far from me. I don't like others touching me!" He yells with a furious gaze, he indeed hated being lectured and blocked by his hypocrite relatives the most.

Luo Tiankong retracted his arm and took a few steps back with a shrug while he put both of his hands inside his pant's pocket.

Right then, Luo Lixiang threw away the stick and put the lighter back in his pocket. 

Then, in front of the other person, showing off his arrogance, he took a tissue out and carefully wiped his skin as if there were countless germs and bacteria!

Luo Tiankong didn't show any reaction but flashes a tight smile, he was very familiar with this sort of act of his. Nonetheless, he asked in a whisper, "Where is Hua Xiamin?"

Hearing this name, Luo Lixiang felt as if someone had pricked on his sour spot. He lifted his head and threw a mocking answer, "He's your dog. How can I know your dog's whereabouts?"

Then, Luo Lixiang snorted and turned around to leave but Luo Tiankong followed him. "If you know a few whereabouts of him, you should tell me. I will definitely let you come back to the company in the future..."

Luo Lixiang felt greatly irritated, he sighs with his fisted palm and keeps walking.

Even when he reached the entrance, Luo Tiankong continued following him. Thus, he turned around in anger and shouted, "Uncle, I don't know where that shitty old man is. If you want him, you can search for him! Don't act like a disgusting worm and follow me without any shame!"

Hearing Luo Lixiang, Luo Tiankong didn't follow him. Instead, he was sure that the boy really didn't know about Hua Xiamin's whereabouts. 

Nonetheless, the old man clenched his palms tightly and felt greatly humiliated by Luo Lixiang's words, "Does he think he is still the young master of our family?! Humph!"
